Chapter 463 Old Turtle
Chapter 463 Old Turtle
The bamboo shoots in spring are so fresh and tender, and they have all grown out at this time.
I'll definitely pick more next time I have time.
With the adult as her laborer, she could pick more without getting too tired.
Zhou Mingshu smiled as he thought about it, thinking that his idea was great.
The wild vegetables they picked were turned into delicious dishes in Zhou Mingshu's hands. Several close friends sat at the same table and enjoyed the meal so much that they kept passing food to each other.
"Sanya, I see the snails in the river are all out. Shall we eat spicy snail meat in a couple of days?"
"Okay, I'll pick some up later and make spicy snails."
"Yeah, okay. I've been craving this for so long that I couldn't sleep at night because of thinking about it. Haha."
Although Erya intervened, the atmosphere between Sanya and Lord Qi seemed off.
Zhou Mingqin held her bowl in her hands, not daring to look up at the two of them.
This is somewhat beyond the way ordinary people interact, and it seems a bit ambiguous no matter how you look at it.
She became more and more certain of what Erya had been gossiping about.
But if this is true, as the eldest sister, she would be very worried about her younger sister.
Normally, there seemed to be nothing wrong with two people sitting together, but after she had this concept, she felt something was wrong no matter how she looked at it.
My sister is a fair and clean little girl, who looks soft, tender, cute and lovely, but Lord Qi... looks like... a big bad wolf no matter how you look at him!
If San Ya holds on to her sister and refuses to let go, there will be nothing left of her.
After Zhou Mingqin became preoccupied, she couldn't concentrate on eating.
Does she want to talk to San Ya?
Or maybe talk to grandma and mother?
"What's wrong, sister? Why don't you eat? Don't you have an appetite? Can I get you a bowl of yogurt?"
Zhou Mingshu found that his elder sister was absent-minded and thought she had no appetite.
"No, no, no, no, just eat yours, I'm fine."
After being asked by her sister, Zhou Mingqin quickly regained her composure and focused on eating.
After lunch, Zhou Mingshu carried the basket and went to the river.
Qi Rui and Rufeng went to the fields to supervise the soldiers' work.
Although the two wanted to stick together, they didn't dare to do so under the watchful eyes of so many neighbors.
But now that they have so much time together, she is already very satisfied.
Distance creates beauty, but sometimes being too close is not necessarily a good thing.
After picking up half a basket of snails, she took the net bag back and just cast a net under the water plants to catch some small shrimps. There was no way she would let go of these delicious foods.
These little shrimps are delicious whether they are blanched with soy sauce or braised with garlic sprouts.
This is a good thing. My sister can supplement calcium by eating it. Zhou Mingshu plans to catch more.
The afternoon sun was shining brightly. Zhou Mingqin was cleaning the yard when she had nothing to do. Not long after, Lord Qi passed by the door and went to the river.
Seeing Lord Qi passing by, Zhou Mingqin ran to the road with a broom and stretched her head to look.
As expected, Lord Qi took time out of his busy schedule to come and see San Ya.
This is similar to the situation between me and Shen Yang back then!
After thinking it over, Zhou Mingqin decided to endure it for the time being.
When Shen Yang and I were together, we felt so sweet, and I think San Ya felt the same way.
No matter what, San Ya is her sister, and as her elder sister, she doesn't see it as a disadvantage to see that San Ya is dating an outstanding man like Lord Qi.
She was just afraid that San Ya would be deeply trapped and unable to extricate herself. She was experienced in relationships, and she had to find an opportunity to have a good talk with the girl.
Qi Rui walked around the field and then threw the carrying pole to Rufeng. There was no need for him to supervise this work personally.
So he came back to play with Zhou Mingshu.
Knowing that she was by the creek, he ran straight to the creek behind the house.
"Mingshu, why did you go into the water? Is the water cold?"
"Sir? Why are you here? Are you done with the work in the fields?"
"There's nothing to do in the fields. Rufeng is here."
Qi Rui rolled up his sleeves, took off his boots and went down into the river.
Even though the sun is shining today, the river water is still a little cold in early spring, especially in the deeper areas.
"What are you fishing for? Let me do it."
Looking at the river shrimps in the bucket, Qi Rui understood everything.
"You go ashore, dry your feet and sit down, and I'll take care of the rest."
The only net bag was taken away by Qi Rui, so Zhou Mingshu had to go ashore.
The feet were icy cold. After being soaked in the river for so long, the already fair little feet became even whiter, with only the toes still having a bit of pink and red.
Qi Rui looked back and was immediately stunned.
He had never seen a girl's feet in his life.
It really looks much better than the big feet of men.
Knowing that the water was cold and that Zhou Mingshu's feet were cold, he really wanted to hold her in his arms to warm her up. She felt so soft and tender that he really wanted to suck on her.
Zhou Mingshu didn't notice the situation on his side.
She sat on a rock and dried her feet before putting on her socks and then her shoes.
I thought the water wouldn't be so cold at this time of year, but after soaking in the water for a long time it was still very cold.
I felt like half of my legs were numb.
She planned to sit on a rock to bask in the sun and relax.
"Sir, why did you stop? Don't you know how to do it?"
Qi Rui, who was stunned, came back to his senses immediately.
"No, no, leave the rest to me."
The river shrimps are delicious, and he likes Mingshu's cooking skills, so he wants to catch a lot of shrimps so that he can have a big dinner.
"Mingshu, there are small fish in this net bag, do you want them?"
"Keep the bigger ones and let the smaller ones go."
"Row."
"This fish can be used to make fish soup, and it's also delicious if braised."
Qi Rui smiled after hearing this. Not to mention the chicken, fish, meat and eggs, even the wild vegetables in the mountains can be made into new dishes in her hands, and the taste is not inferior to other delicious dishes.
"Believe in your craftsmanship. No matter what ingredients you have, they are not a problem."
Zhou Mingshu smiled after hearing this and said, "Your Excellency is getting better and better at praising people. These words really sound nice to me."
"Hey~ Old turtle? I caught an old turtle!"
Before the two of them could laugh, Qi Rui's surprised voice rang out.
"Where? Where?"
Zhou Mingshu immediately ran over to check, and found that the old turtle in the net bag was of a decent size.
"Sir, you are amazing! Great, great, we have an old turtle to eat, we will stew it later!"
"Haha, okay, I'm really lucky today."
Seeing Zhou Mingshu was about to take it, Qi Rui immediately blocked her.
"Don't touch it. This old turtle is very fierce. It would be bad if you get bitten."
"Okay, then wait for me, I'll go home and get a basin."
Zhou Mingshu trotted away, but what he was thinking in his heart was that the turtle seedlings he had released last year could finally be eaten.
There is still a lot of nutrients in this small river. This turtle has grown several times larger in just one year.
Oh, they are in for a treat again.
This old turtle is a great tonic food!
It tastes delicious and has high nutritional value, but pregnant women cannot eat it. I feel sorry for her.
