Mianmian lived in the old house for two days, pruned the branches and flowers in front of and behind the house, and soon returned to its former appearance.

Even though the house has not been inhabited for several years, it is still the same as it was at the beginning.

Mianmian sat on the small swing in the yard, holding the vegetable melon from the Chen family next door, and swaying her legs while eating.

The Chen family's uncle and aunt died of illness a few years ago, and now Cousin Chen is in charge.

Cousin Chen is not as selfish as his uncle and aunt, not only is he honest, but he is also very friendly, and he has no scheming.

It's just that he hasn't married a wife for so many years.

After the Zhou family was developed, the uncle of the Chen family originally wanted to beg Aunt Zhou, but when he thought of the forcible occupation of their land in the past, he never had the face to beg her.

Later, the Zhou family went to the capital, and even if the uncle of the Chen family wanted to find them, he couldn't find them.

No, after the death of the two elders, Cousin Chen still bears it.

Although Aunt Zhou settled here through Chen Yue'e's identity, in the eyes of many people, they are still relatives.

Cousin Chen saw Mianmian return to the old mansion and treated her as his niece, either sending rice oil or flowers, fruits and vegetables.

Mianmian collected it all, and she was also very friendly to share some of the food that came from the capital.

The original land of the Zhou family was still there, and Dr. Xu sent someone to watch it, and the annual harvest would be received in Zhuangzi and sent to Mrs. Zhou's home, so there was no grain stored in the old house.

"Mianmian, what do you see this fish?" Ah Ruo carried a basket on his back and a big herring in his hand.

Mianmian stopped the swing and looked up at the big fish in his hand, which was at least half a meter long.

"What a big fish!" she jumped off the swing happily, "where did you get such a big fish?"

Arro put the fish in the pool next to her and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

He was very tall, with the unique wheat complexion of the Nanyi people, and his thin white clothes were soaked by the river, and the muscle texture on his chest could be faintly seen.

He wiped the water from his face and arms with a handkerchief, and said with a smile: "In your field."

Mianmian followed Du Bangchun to the field in the past, and suddenly remembered the big pool.

There are a lot of fish in the pool.

Ah Ruo twisted the water from the corner of his clothes and said with a smile: "I'll make fish soup for you tonight."

Mianmian nodded.

"I'll go and change my clothes first. Ah Ruo said, turning and entering the house.

He changed out of his wet clothes and put on a dark blue robe, which was much more modest than in the palace on weekdays.

After Ah Ruo changed his clothes, he rolled up his sleeves and went to the backyard to cook on the fire.

He's smart, even if he's never cooked, but when he walks to the stove, he can move.

Mianmian came behind him, "Ah Ruo, do you know how to make fish soup?"

Ah Ruo nodded seriously, "I can do it, of course I can do it."

He lit the fire on the stove and began to wash the pot and cook, although it was clumsy, but it was quite correct.

When Mianmian was a child, she was by Aunt Zhou's side, and she saw Mama Zhuang cooking, and she roughly knew what to do.

She rolled up her sleeves to help, too.

Ah Ruo hurriedly stopped her, "Princess!"

Mian Mian was startled, and looked up at him with a puzzled expression.

Ah Ruo stepped forward slowly and pulled down her sleeve, "How can you touch this kind of rough work, just let me come."

Mianmian is not a hypocritical person, and the things in the kitchen are trivial things to her.

"It's okay, I'll help you light the fire.

Ah Ruo's eyebrows and eyes were full of gentleness that had not changed for thousands of years, and he slowly pushed her out of the back kitchen, if you really want to help, help me guard the fish in the yard.

"Ah Ruo... I—" Mianmian was about to say something, but was stopped by Ah Ruo, "Go ahead, leave it to me here." "

Ah Ruo and Mianmian always speak gently and gently, and they look very soft, but at the critical moment, no one can control him.

Just like now, Mianmian wanted to help in the back kitchen, and Ah Ruo forced her to drive her to the yard.

Mian Mian couldn't resist Ah Ruo, and obediently returned to the swing.

She sat on the swing and looked at the fish in the basin with a smile on her face.

After Ah Ruo cooked the rice, he rolled up his sleeves to reveal his strong arms, fished out the fish in the basin, cleanly processed the fish, and took it to the backyard.

It didn't take long for the smell of fish wafting through the house.

Mianmian hurriedly got off the swing.

Ah Ruo put the boiled fish soup on the table, "How about you taste it?"

Mianmian looked at the table, and saw that the fish soup was white, just like what Mama Zhuang had cooked in the past.

Ah Ruo took out a spoon, scooped up a spoonful of soup, carefully cooled it, and handed it to her.

Mianmian lowered her head and took a sip, her eyes opened.

The fish soup is delicious and better than the meals cooked by the imperial chef in the palace.

She took the spoon from his hand and ate several bites in quick succession.

"It's delicious, it's delicious.

She laughed as she ate.

Ah Ruo looked at her smile, slightly distracted, and secretly put her right hand behind her back when she didn't pay attention.

When the hands were boiling the fish soup just now, several blisters were scalded.

The red and swollen skin under the blisters was originally painful, but when he saw Xiao Mianmian eating so happily, he instantly felt that it didn't hurt at all.

Mianmian hurriedly picked up the bowl and served him a bowl of soup, "Ah Ruo, you can also taste it."

Ah Ruo took it in his hand, lowered his head and took a sip, it tasted really good.

Mianmian saw that he was also eating, and the smile on his face was even worse.

Ah Ruo got up and said, "Mianmian, you eat first, and there are two dishes, I'll bring them." "
