After she finished speaking, she looked at the other person's expression, feeling a little nervous, fearing that she might miss the slightest expression on his face.
Fortunately, Shen Gongqi did not disappoint her. He touched her head and said, "You don't have to apologize to me. It's not your fault."
"I knew you were the best." Fang Nuo hugged his waist and nestled into his arms.
Little Yaya was watching her parents hug each other. She also squeezed in and said, "Dad, Yaya also wants to hug me."
Shen Gongqi picked up the little man and hugged him, one arm around Fang Nuo's slim waist.
The family hugged each other for a while, and then Fang Nuo withdrew from his arms and said, "Have you noticed it a long time ago?"
"No, I just saw you sending some things elsewhere after a while. I just thought you were sending them to your family in the city," Shen Gongqi said.
"Then you will think that I have deceived you and changed my position in your heart?" Fang Nuo asked again.
"No, I will only feel sorry for you," Shen Gongqi said
"Wow~ Brother Qi, you're so kind." Fang Nuo couldn't hold it back and threw herself back into his arms, tears coming out unconsciously.
"Okay, I will be with you from now on." Shen Gongqi patted her back to comfort her.
"Well, you are so kind, I believe my family will like you very much" Fang Nuo said
"Then Xiao Nuo will help me a little bit," Shen Gongqi said with a smile.
"Uh-huh"
Later, Fang Nuo told him why his family members were sent down, and also explained that the family members were all very kind and had done nothing wrong at all.
After this confession, the relationship between the two became better.
After planting wheat for half a month, the work in the field is done.
Later, people in the village began to prepare for winter storage.
Many people in the family began to go into the mountains to collect firewood every day. All kinds of vegetables in the family garden began to be harvested, and they also started to pickle various pickles.
Fang Nuo's family first went to the mountains to collect firewood. After filling the two firewood sheds at home, they piled several more piles in the yard.
It took seven days to save enough firewood.
During dinner, Shen Gongqi said: "The Chai family is almost ready. We will just pick some up from time to time and use them during the snowing period."
"Then we won't go into the mountains tomorrow. We will collect all the vegetables in the vegetable field at home, otherwise these vegetables will not be good after the frost," Fang Nuo said.
"OK"
When they got up early the next morning, they had breakfast, then went into the field and started to pull up the pepper trees, and then picked the remaining peppers on the trees, both green and red.
The red ones are dried into dried peppers, and the green peppers are pickled and eaten in winter.
Then there are the tomatoes, the red ones are picked and made into tomato paste and canned tomatoes for storage.
The eggplants were also picked, steamed, torn apart and sun-dried.
I picked all the ripe melons at home and put them in the cellar for storage.
During the harvest, all the leaves of the seedlings were pulled out, and Fang Nuo kept all the edible ones. Those that were inedible were cut off and sent to the cattle shed by Shen Gongqi to feed the animals.
She cut some cabbage rolls with loose cores and hung them in the yard to dry in preparation for making sauerkraut.
The radish and mustard knots were also pulled out, and some radishes were left to be soaked in the sauerkraut jar. The rest were dug in a hole in the vegetable field and buried.
The green onions at home have also grown. Let them dry in the yard for a few days and then pack them into the house.
Fang Nuo said to Shen Gongqi while chopping cabbage: "Our family has a lot of cabbage this year. I want to pickle more and bring some to my dad and the others."
"Okay, just look at the arrangements," Shen Gongqi said.
"There is also this mustard green. I will make it into pickles. After drying, our family can eat it for a long time." After a year of farming, the most satisfying moment is the harvest.
"Next year our family won't be growing these crops. As I told you then, we will just leave a small part to grow some vegetables, and the rest will be planted into potatoes and corn," Shen Gongqi said.
"Well, that way we will have a lot more food at home. Look at what I have planted this year, I have harvested two to three hundred kilograms of corn," Fang Nuo said.
"Well, if we grow some food at home, we can keep some of our work points in exchange for money," Shen Gongqi said with a smile.
The two of them were busy in the fields for a long time. When they saw that it was getting late, Fang Nuo went to pick a watermelon and hugged it. He shouted to Shen Gongqi who was in the field: "It's already noon. Let's take a rest before we have lunch." continue"
"Okay, you go first, I'll come right away," Shen Gongqi replied.
Fang Nuo returned to the front yard holding the watermelon, and heard Yaya shouting in the house.
Then I remembered that they were all so busy today that they forgot about Yaya.
She put the watermelon in a pot in the yard and went inside.
Entering the back room, I saw Yaya sitting on the quilt with a chicken coop on her head.
"You're awake, are you hungry?" Fang Nuo was amused by her daughter's hairstyle, but for the sake of her child's self-esteem, she still tried hard to press down the corners of her mouth.
"Mom, you didn't even hear me calling me," Yaya said aggrievedly
"That's mom's fault, I'm sorry, baby," Fang Nuo apologized.
"Yaya is hungry"
"Then let's put on clothes. When we go out, mom will make milk for you first. Mom will do whatever you want to eat." Fang Nuo said, taking the clothes on the side and putting them on for her.
She took the baby to the outside room and sat on the kang. She first made the milk and let it cool down, then combed and tied up her hair.
Fang Nuo tied up her hair, poured water to wash her face and hands, gave her the bottle and asked, "Okay, what kind of food does Yaya want to eat?"
"Eat the cake" Yaya said
"Okay, mom, let's put on your shoes. You drink milk first, and I'll make you pancakes, okay?" Fang Nuo took out the socks and put them on for her, put on her small shoes, and stood on the ground.
When he went out, he saw that Shen Gongqi had come back and said, "Yaya is awake?"
"I've been awake for a while. I've been shouting in the room for a while since I came here," Fang Nuo replied.
"Then you're not crying, are you?" Shen Gongqi washed his hands and went into the room to take a look.
Seeing that Yaya didn't cry and had been tidied up and was breastfeeding, he went over to pick up the child and left the house.
Fang Nuo went to start preparing lunch.
She first mixed the dough and made Yaya's pancakes.
What I made for Yaya was rice flour cake, which was relatively delicate.
Just put a little salt and chopped green onion in it. Once it is cooked, Shen Gongqi blows it cold and feeds it to Yaya.
She also made egg drop soup for her using the tomatoes she picked today.
They also had pancakes for lunch. After having lunch and resting for a while, they took Yaya to the backyard and continued to chop cabbage and pull radishes.
More than a week passed like this, and Fang Nuo's family had pickled two large tanks of sauerkraut, and there were also a lot of pickles.
After she finished cleaning up the vegetable garden at home, she went to the mountains to pick mushrooms.
I picked up a lot of them in a few days, cooked them all, dried them, and stored them.
I have been busy for more than a month. It is already September in the lunar calendar, and it is not long before it snows in the north.
"We have prepared enough things this year. After it snows, let's go to the farm," Fang Nuo said.
"Okay, then I'll find some connections to get something, and I'll bring it with me when the time comes," Shen Gongqi said.
