C24 I also Want to Buy a Wife

"Good, good, good. Yiming, it's good that this daughter-in-law knows how to make money. She's also tough at shopping. Very good." Brother Liu Shan's unintentional praise made Xiao Yiming speechless.

Xiao Yiming had just left when a few villagers came.

Fortunately, his daughter-in-law didn't come with him. Hearing these sarcastic remarks, he might have even taken it to heart.

On the way back, Xiao Yiming intentionally passed by Doctor Chang's house. The medical fees owed to his family were already over a month old, so he was a bit embarrassed.

Doctor Chang's house was rarely seen, and it was easy to tell who he was. The moment he walked into the yard, he saw a lot of herbs sunning the yard. Smoke was curling up on the roof, probably to cook dinner.

"Is Doctor Chang here?" Xiao Yiming shouted.

"Who is it?" A woman's voice replied. She knew it was Aunt Chang the moment she heard it.

"Aunt Chang, it's me, Xiao Yiming."

At this moment, a middle-aged woman rubbed her hands together and came out, "Yiming, have you eaten? Doctor Chang went to see a doctor in the neighboring village, what do you want?" Is my family not feeling well? "

Cough cough, um, Aunt Chang, I've come to pay you for the medicine. The last time Doctor Chang came to see my wife, he owed her money for the medicine. Xiao Yiming was a bit embarrassed when he said this.

"What's wrong with that? I told you to deliver it yourself. Why don't you just hand it over first?" Aunt Chang was a warm-hearted person as well, as she knew the difficulty of Xiao Family.

"Aunt Xie Chang. I came to buy some fish this time, so I brought them here as well. Here."

Xiao Yiming counted out 50 copper coins and handed two fish over to her. "Aunt, I just bought this fish. I'll give you two, how fresh is it?"

"How can I accept this? "It's not easy at home, how could I take advantage of you?" This fish was really fresh, and she hadn't eaten it in a while.

"There's no need to be courteous. Aunt, don't be courteous to me. I won't even dare to owe you medicine next time." Xiao Yiming passed through the kitchen and put the fish in a wooden bowl. "Aunt, don't be polite. I see that you haven't cooked yet, so you can eat tonight."

"Thank you, Yiming."

"Okay, then I'll leave first."

"Sigh. "Alright, thank you, Yiming."

Xiao Yiming returned home and knew Aunt Xiao had finished cooking when he saw that his family's chimney had stopped smoking.

He shouted before he even entered, "Mother, I'm back!"

"It's here, come, Yiming, take a rest. Mom, come wash the fish."

"Mom, I'm not tired. Let me do it." Xiao Yiming took a stone and a wooden basin from the house.

"En, I'll get one tonight. I'll raise one tonight." Aunt Xiao filled a basin with water and put a fish into it to raise.

This way, he could go to the fields tomorrow to pick a bunch of vegetables, and the vegetables tomorrow would be ready.

Xiao Yiming put the fish on the stone slab, first scraping the fish phosphorus, then using a kitchen knife to cut open the belly of the fish, pulling out the internal organs. Finally, he cut three times on each side of the fish and started to clean it.

Luo Mannmann would come to the courtyard to collect the clothes and see that he always worked hard. It was like he would be satisfied if there was even a little bit of sweetness in a day of poverty.

Xiao Yiming was very serious. He was skilled at washing fish and had lowered his eyelashes. He looked very charming when he was serious.

He felt the gaze of someone looking at him, so he looked up and met Luo Mannmann's gaze. He grinned brilliantly: "My wife, why are you staring at me? Did you discover that your husband is very good-looking? "

"Stupid." "Xiao Yiming, you're getting more and more naughty." When I first met him, I would blush at his shy words.

Now, he realized that he was getting more and more thick-skinned. Sometimes, he would even act coquettishly, as if he was a completely different person from before.

"Hehe, to be honest, you call that stinky beauty? "Wife." Xiao Yiming laughed. Seeing her take back her clothes, he said, "Does my wife want to eat steamed rice or braised rice?"

"Whatever. You sound like you're cooking."

"Hehe, my wife is really smart. Even if your husband wants to cook, I think we should braise it. Wife, wait a moment. I'll immediately go cook the fish. " Xiao Yiming entered the house and carried a small pile of firewood with him.

Luo Mannmann, who had finished folding her clothes inside the house, came into the kitchen and saw Aunt Xiao throwing firewood into the kitchen.

Xiao Yiming could tell that the fire was very strong just by looking at the bright red fire that lit up the wall. Xiao Yiming poured oil onto the smoking pot like it was a proper thing to do, and on the chopping block, there were chopped ginger and chopped spring onion.

When the oil was hot, the big hands dropped the washed fish, and the pot began to sputter.

Xiao Yiming turned the fish over with a wooden spatula. When the fish skin was slightly tender, he sprinkled some yellow wine and added a little bit of brown sugar. Then he added some salt, scooped some water and poured it into the wok, covering the wok with a lid.

"Wife, wash your hands. You can eat it now." Xiao Yiming pursed his lips and smiled.

It was rare to buy a fish, so he had to make it taste delicious and let his wife have a taste of his craftsmanship.

"Right." Luo Mannmann set the chopsticks on the table. Soon, a fragrant Red Braised Fish would be on the table. The crispy skin with green onions and flowers would really make one's appetite rise.

At this moment, she couldn't help but sniff, "It's quite fragrant." He started praising the other party loudly with a smile on his face. This fellow was truly capable.

When Luo Mannmann heard her stomach growling, she inwardly cursed herself for being such a failure and yet she acted as if she had never eaten fish before.

The evening dishes were fairly rich, including braised fish, bean curd milk and vegetables.

Aunt Xiao was beaming with smiles as she said, "Alright, don't just stand there. Eat your food. You must be hungry."

"Come, Mannmann, eat more fish." Aunt Xiao quickly put the piece of fish belly meat into her bowl.

"Hmm, it tastes really good. I didn't know that Yiming was quite good at cooking fish." Her praise made Xiao Yiming's eyebrows rise up.

He took a mouthful of the rice and spoke without hesitation, "Of course. I only cook very rarely. I can't help but feel that my culinary skills are excellent."

"Alright, Yiming, continue bragging." Aunt Xiao also picked up a piece of fish and put it into his bowl. "Even eating fish can't stop your mouth."

"Hehe, of course, my culinary skills are still far from mother's. Fortunately, my wife doesn't mind."

Xiao Yiming's appetite was quite big, so he had to eat two bowls for one meal. Tonight, the dishes were pretty good, so he ate an extra bowl.

After dinner, the fish on the table was eaten up by the three until only their bones were left.

At night, the oil lamp on the table emitted a weak light, and the two of them continued to wrap themselves in their blankets as they sat in On the Kang and chatted.

At this moment, Luo Mannmann turned her head and said to him, "Yiming, the market is going to be in two days. Let's prepare to go to the market."

"En, that's good too, it's almost at the end of the month. I only went there once this month, but during this period of time, I only made wooden jars, the other Wood products did not do much."

"It's fine, I'll sell as much as I can. Besides, I'll mainly go to the town to see if there are any other markets for whitening mud."

"Oh right, my wife, I've found a problem. What should I say?"

"What do you think?"

"Have you noticed that the whitening mud didn't stay in there for long? It would only last for seven or eight days in the small wooden jar." Xiao Yiming said with a frown.

"Yeah, I noticed it too, so I'll have to buy some mud jars to seal up my mouth and place in the shade this time."

The most important thing was to open a market, the whitening mud production was simple, as long as one understood some pharmacology, a village with a bit of common sense would quickly solve it.

"Also, our garden doesn't have many tomatoes. There will be a day when they run out, when we'll have to buy them."

"Mm, that's all talk in the future, but we still have to prepare first." These few days, there were people coming in succession to the Xiao Family to buy whitening mud s.

Well, after a while, she would have to think of something else to replace it. She wanted to have more pleasing fruits and vegetables.

"En, go to sleep early. Wife, we'll talk about it the day after tomorrow." Xiao Yiming helped her cover up, then looked at her daughter-in-law, his eyes filled with love.

A daughter-in-law was a typical type of sleeping type. Once they were in a pit, they would immediately fall asleep. One of his hands touched his daughter-in-law's face that was getting whiter and whiter.

The night didn't seem long...

"Early the next morning, when the sun shone down on the simple mountain village, Luo Mannmann woke up and went to the kitchen. Aunt Xiao scooped up a spoonful of rice porridge and said," Mannmann got up, and Yiming went to the vegetable patch. "

Since the Xiao Family didn't have any fields, they naturally had to be taken care of properly.

Luo Mannmann ate breakfast, carrying a vegetable basket in one hand and a sheepskin bag of water in the other.

He walked to the garden and saw Xiao Yiming watering the cucumber and tomato plants.

This time, he bent over and used his hoe to dig a few times. When he saw Luo Mannmann, he immediately waved his hand and shouted, "Wifey, why are you here?"

Luo Mannmann waved at him and smiled, "You have been busy cooking in the early morning. Are you thirsty? Come and have some water. "

"My wife treats me so well, hur hur." Xiao Yiming picked up the water bag and started gulping down the water. As he gulped down the water, his Adam's apple moved, making him look especially manly.

"Wife, the photos will start soon. You should go back."

At this moment, Wang Ergou, who was carrying a hoe on his shoulder, walked past and laughed irresponsibly: "Wow, you two are like glue everywhere, the husband and wife is envious of the dead.

"Yiming, what are your thoughts about what I asked you last time?"

Xiao Yiming was a bit annoyed when he saw him and said: "I don't remember."

"Fine, when do you remember, tell me." He stole a glance at Luo Mannmann and ran back to his own vegetable patch.

Several vegetable fields were quite a distance away, Xiao Yiming planned to water them before going to the other vegetable fields to loosen the loose soil.

Soon, the sun was high in the sky. Xiao Yiming helped Luo Mannmann pick some tomatoes and cucumbers and handed her a vegetable basket.

"Wife, it's too hot. You should go back first. I'll go to the other fields and grind up the soil. I'll be right back."

Luo Mannmann passed the water bag to him. "I'll leave this water for you. Alright then, come back early. The sun is shining outside."

"Alright, daughter-in-law." Xiao Yiming touched her hair affectionately and walked in the other direction while carrying the hoe.

Seeing Xiao Yiming's figure gradually disappearing, Wang Ergou, who was dressed in coarse clothes, sneakily stuck his head out.
