Chapter 39
When the two of them returned to the village, it was already getting late. The sun was setting, and the afterglow shone on Zhong Xixi's body, revealing a golden halo.

Zhong Xixi smiled and waved in He Quhao's direction.

"He Quhao, goodbye!"

Then turned around, bounced and walked away.

He Quhao looked at Zhong Xixi's figure who turned and left, and touched his nose.

Touching the position of the heart, why is the heartbeat so fast?

Zhong Xixi went back and called Zhong Mumu, but no one answered.

He simply didn't care anymore, since he moved to a new home, Zhong Mumu has many more playmates, at this point in time, he should still be skinny, right?
However, boyish skin is fine at all, better than timid, not boyish at all.

Then start sorting cotton and cloth.

"Sister, sister."

When Zhong Mumu saw that the door was open, she knew that her sister was back. As soon as she entered, her eyes were attracted by the things placed on the bed.

"Wow!"

He opened his mouth wide, looking at Zhong Xixi with sparkling eyes in disbelief.

"Sister, did you buy so many things? Do they all belong to our family?"

Zhong Xixi took out the extra fabric and gestured at Zhong Mumu.

"Yeah, I bought some cotton. Let's make it into a quilt first. After making the extra fabric for the quilt, we'll make some clothes, and then some winter clothes."

Zhong Mumu's eyes lit up again. Since his parents passed away, he hasn't worn new clothes for a long time.

"Okay, sister, you've become so powerful." Zhong Mumu looked at Zhong Xixi adoringly.

My older sister was not as powerful as she is now.

However, Zhong Mumu likes her sister better now, not to mention that life is much better than before, at least they will not be bullied.

Zhong Xixi reached out and rubbed Zhong Mumu's hair, seeing all his joy in his eyes, and felt soft in his heart.

To earn a lot of money and let my brother live a good life, at least he can't be as sallow and emaciated as he is now.

After packing up, Zhong Mumu pulled Zhong Xixi's sleeve and came to the kitchen.

"Sister, I dug some wild vegetables."

The dumplings stuffed with wild vegetables that I ate a few days ago were so memorable that Zhong Mumu couldn't help swallowing, salivating.

"I also touched some loach by the river. Although loach is not delicious at this time, it is still meat. I also found wild duck eggs. We can eat delicious food at night, hehehe."

Zhong Mumu smirked, looking at the food around the stove.

Since moving out of the old house, the luck has changed for the better.

Going out for a walk, you can pick up so much food. It's not like before, a bite of black steamed buns can be eaten for two days.

Looking at Zhong Mumu who was like a greedy cat, Zhong Xixi was not only not happy, but also felt a little sad. You must know that the loach at this time is not delicious, and the duck eggs also smell a little fishy.

This kid, who was treated badly before, was so happy with a little loach and a few duck eggs.

Zhong Xixi looked at Zhong Mumu with distressed eyes, and became more determined to work hard to make money so that his brother could live a good life.

Not only should my brother eat and drink well, but also send him to study.

College students in this era have a high gold content!

"Okay, my sister will cook something delicious for you tonight." She rubbed Zhong Mumu's hair, then turned to get the bamboo basket.

Using the cover of the bamboo basket, Zhong Xixi took out a catty of pork belly from the space, and waved it in front of Zhong Xixi, "How about eating braised pork tonight?"

Zhong Mumu's eyes widened, braised pork?

Bright red, oily, fragrant braised pork?

And the next second...

"Whoa..."

Zhong Xixi frowned slightly, then stepped back calmly, took out a lollipop from his pocket, stuffed it into Zhong Mumu's hand, and said with a slightly disgusted look in his eyes.

"Take it, go to the side to eat, don't interfere with my cooking."

"Also, wipe the saliva around your mouth so it doesn't drip into the pot!"

Zhong Mumu had a lollipop in his mouth, but his soul was taken away by the pork belly in Zhong Xixi's hand.

I saw that Zhong Xixi cut the pork belly into pieces neatly, then heated up the oil in a pan, and fried the fat pork belly until it was slightly browned, then threw in a few sugar cubes, and finally added boiling water and the remaining seasonings bag, and put it in the clay pot found in the corner.

Put it on the stove next to the stove where the water is boiling, and simmer slowly.

Zhong Mumu couldn't move his eyes away, where is the pork belly, where is he.

Seeing him like this, Zhong Xixi couldn't help but sputter out in fright.

He re-started the pan to heat up the oil, broke up the duck eggs, picked a handful of shallots from the corner of the wall, chopped them into it, stirred them, and soon the golden fried duck eggs with chopped green onions came out of the pan.

As for the loach caught by Zhong Mumu, the head and tail were pinched off, marinated with scallions, ginger and garlic to remove the smell, and some green and red peppers were cut up for later use. Stir-fry them with some prickly ash aniseed, and it will be good.

As for the plate of wild vegetables, just make it into wild vegetable egg drop soup.

After more than an hour, the braised pork on the pot was ready. The pork skin was soft and chewy.

Zhong Xixi picked up a small piece and threw it into Zhong Mumu's mouth, then took out a small bowl, divided out one-third of the finished dishes, and picked up a few large pieces of braised pork, and put them in a small bamboo basket.

These days, braised pork is considered a tough dish.

Ask Grandma He to help make the quilt, of course you have to give them some good things!
As for He Quhao, since he saw the cotton anyway, he told them that the pork belly was also traded on the black market!
"Wow, it's delicious, it's so delicious."

Zhong Mumu ate with tears in his eyes, thinking it was the best thing he had ever eaten.

"It's delicious and I'll eat it when I come back. Send these dishes to Grandma He's family, and let you eat your fill when you come back."

Zhong Xixi said with a smile,
Zhong Mumu looked at Zhong Xixi curiously, "Sister, are you with Big Brother He?"

"Don't talk nonsense, He Quhao has helped us a lot, isn't it natural to give some things?"

Zhong Xixi glanced at Zhong Mumu angrily.

How does a child know so much?
"Hurry up and deliver it, you can eat when you come back."

After Zhong Mumu heard it, he rushed out with a whoosh.

And standing in the forest at the bottom of the mountain, a tall man stood in a hidden place.

He glanced up at the sky, curled his fingers in his mouth and whistled.

A few minutes later, an eagle flew down from the sky, landed on He Quhao's arm, and apparently rubbed He Quhao's fingers very affectionately.

"Go find Ah Yan."

The black eagle understood He Quhao's words so well, tilted its head, stretched its neck and yelled twice, then spread its wings and flew towards the other side of the mountain.

Soon, there was a slight sound of footsteps in the woods.

Immediately afterwards, a man with oily hair, a white shirt, small leather shoes, a handsome appearance, and a temperament that seemed out of place in this small mountain village ran over.

"Boss!"
