Chapter 83

Shen Pingxi came back very late in the evening, everyone had finished their dinner and went back to their respective homes, Wen Nuan returned to their room and sat by the window to take a nap.

It was only when he was half asleep and half awake that he heard familiar footsteps coming from the yard. He woke up from a dazed state, warmly greeted him out the door, and raised his face with a sleepy naive look, just in time to meet Shen Pingxi's lowered head covered in cold air.

"I haven't slept yet, I'm not telling you that I'll be back later."

"Have you eaten?"

Nuan Nuan didn't ask him where he was, but instead brought him a cup of hot tea to warm his hands and dispel the coldness of the cold night, and poured himself a cup of Xing Xing sleepy.

"I ate it. I ate it in the town. I went to find Qiu Shangping."

Regardless of warmth, Shen Pingxi still explained his whereabouts with his wife. This is respect and communication with each other.

The news he brought back was good and bad, I believe she would be more vigilant after telling Wen Nuan.

"Do you want to find Shangping?"

"As for the news brought by the village chief, let's at least confirm and confirm it. We don't do harm to anyone, but it doesn't mean we don't guard against villains' schemes. I know what you're thinking this afternoon. Now you can rest assured. "

Shen Pingxi said that he went to the town to inquire about the news in the afternoon, but did not specify the source of the news. Presumably, the Qiu family's business is not small, and they can talk to the officials. The one released by the Wen family should be more accurate.

"Wen Deyun did get a seat in the county government office, but he is only the deputy of the chief secretary. It is nothing to be afraid of helping to copy and do miscellaneous tasks on the documents." Shen Pingxi first told the warm and most concerned news, and then took it easy. Let's talk about Wen Qiwen passing the government examination this time.

"Although I passed the government examination, it is still at the bottom of the list. I am afraid that the college examination will not go so smoothly in a while, but Wen Qiwen can speak well. He has won the attention of the county school chief, and intends to accept him as a disciple and promote him. This time, Wen Deyun can win The errands in the yamen are also contributed by Ding Shanzhang from behind."

There is a county school in the county, and a state school in the state capital. These are educational institutions funded and established by literati and scholars in their hometowns. They can be regarded as small schools.

Nuan Nuan pondered the meaning of Shen Ping's western words, but he didn't expect that Wen Qiwen pretended to be a modest gentleman outside, and even attracted the attention of the mountain chief. I really don't know if the mountain chief didn't wear glasses.

No one knew what Wen Qiwen's virtues were when he was in Wen's family. She was lazy, self-righteous, and selfish.

It's not that Nuan Nuan hates this person's intentional distorted evaluation, but that he really can't think of any good words to describe this person.

"Tomorrow, Uncle Wangshan will bring people over to dig the foundation. In addition, the bear meat at home can no longer be put away. It may take a day or two. We will go to the county government the day after tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, and get the deed and land deed first. Only then can I rest assured, otherwise I always feel that something is wrong in my heart."

"Don't worry too much about it. I have a solution. Just do whatever you want."

The young couple didn't say any more, and turned off the lights after washing.

The next morning, the delivery person arrived very early, Nuan Nuan didn't even have time to make breakfast, but Mrs. Wang got up and helped make some food, which made Mr. Shen feel disgusted.

Mrs. Wang is also a person who has a lot of contact with Mr. Shen, so she naturally knows that this man has no intentions, but he has a weird temper, and he admits when he is complained that the food is not good.

It is true that there are many tricks without warmth, and the taste is good.

"You just have to eat something, Xiaonuan is too busy to get away from behind, but I heard her read and say what kind of bear meat is going to be made today, you should save some stomach for delicious food."

Wang's life is relaxed now, and she is happy with everyone. The child Xiaonuan and Xi'er are living on their arms. Although she, a mother, sees them suffering, she is also really happy.

Just look at the two villages of Nanhe and Beihe, whose family is as lively and prosperous as theirs now!

Wen Nuan’s main purpose today is to talk to Uncle Wang Shan about the design of leaving a large room alone as a chicken coop. This is simpler than a rabbit house. It looks like a row of Datong shops. It’s just a little higher, and the style is three or four. In the shape of layers, each layer is placed with a grass nest for hens to hold their cubs, which can also be used to avoid the cold in winter and avoid natural enemies at night.

After finishing the work in the back house, Nuan Nuan rushed back to prepare bear meat.

Mrs. Wang followed to help, and Aunt Xiumei and Aunt Hao were finishing the quilt.

"Mother, I'll do it myself, you rest, why don't you talk to my aunt and the others."

Seeing Wang move a small stool and sit by the stove to help light the fire, Nuan rushed forward to stop her. To Wang, Nuan is sincerely filial. She suffered so much in the early years, and now it is time to enjoy the blessings.

Now she seldom even asks her to do housework. Anyway, I am used to doing it in Wen's house, so this kind of work at home can be done with ease.

"Okay, Mom also wants to stay with you longer. Besides, I'm not in my late [-]s, so there's nothing I can't do. Hurry up and do it, and I'll learn from you. Old Shen from the province complains that my cooking doesn't taste good."

Knowing that Mrs. Wang also loves herself, she was so warm that she didn't stop her, so she began to cut up the bear meat piece by piece.

The bear weighed at least a few hundred catties, and after the internal organs were removed, the blood was bled, and the bones were removed, there was at least two hundred catties of meat.

Fortunately, now that we have joined the Wang family, and Aunt Hao's who is helping, the four families eat together so that we don't have to worry about it.

The most advanced meat in the pot is the tendon meat of the bear which is thinner and has more fascia. This is similar to making sauced beef.

Before Nuan Nuan agreed to Shen Lao and accepted her as an apprentice, she wanted to prepare a feast of bear meat as a teacher. The piece with ribs was directly chopped into small square pieces by Nuan Nuan with a big knife, plus the food sent by Aunt Xiumei before. All kinds of mushrooms and bamboo shoots left in the kitchen are added with scallions, ginger and aniseed with a little cooking wine to remove the fishy smell, so that they can be stewed with the original flavor.

The other positions are slicing and slicing, dicing and dicing, some to be marinated, some to be breaded and deep-fried, and Shen Lao was hooked over after a busy meal.

"This smell... fierce girl, are you cooking bear meat?"

"No, master, you have a really good nose, you can smell the smell just after cooking!"

Wen Nuan kept teasing the old man, and Shen Lao didn't emphasize to her that he respected the teacher, but he was so anxious that his eyes were about to fall into the pot, so he couldn't eat.

"Let me tell you, those two children are with me now. Although I didn't teach the young ones myself, I have learned a few words." Is this a way of asking for credit?
Nuan Nuan laughed, nodded vigorously to show that he knew, and did not answer.

Shen Lao was so anxious that there was nothing he could do, so he just pretended, "I don't care, I have to work too hard, you have to get me more to eat, so I can eat enough."

He said this as if he was hungry before, Wen Nuan didn't know it, because Mr. Shen was so picky, he had been hungry a lot in the past, or he couldn't have ended up hungry and gnawed on ginseng or something to continue his life.

The picky mouth is causing trouble, the mouth that has been nurtured by warmth is even more troublesome, and can't eat anything else!
