Shen Xuanqing hurried out, even Lu Gu could see his guilty conscience, let alone Shen Yan.

She was the youngest in the family, and the two older brothers treated her really well, but sometimes even Shen Yaoqing, who was over twenty years old, would tease and make fun of her, and Shen Xuanqing was no exception. She couldn't beat her two older brothers when her braids were pulled, so she had to ask someone for help.

In the past, Ji Qiuyue could restrain Shen Yaoqing, and now, someone finally could  restrain Shen Xuanqing, her joy was obvious, she turned to Lu Gu and said: "Brother Guzi, you can help me more in the future, the second brother is too annoying."

After Shen Xuanqing slipped out with a guilty conscience, Lu Gu was actually a little dazed, and he nodded subconsciously when he heard her words.

Seeing that he agreed, Shen Yan laughed a few times, and she was even happier, thinking that Brother Erqing couldn't bully her again in the future.

Lu Gu didn't really understand about Shen Xuanqing's reaction, and he didn't know how to help Shen Yan in the future. He had seen Ji Qiuyue beat Shen Yaoqing before. Could it be that she wanted him to help her like this?

Another piece of icicle was knocked off, and it fell hard to the ground and shattered into several pieces. The puppy wanted to come over, but fearing that he would be hit by the icicle, Lu Gu hurriedly chased him away, forgetting what he was thinking just now.

When Shen Xuanqing came back from buying the meat, Wei Lanxiang, Lu Gu and Shen Yan entered the kitchen.

One person made a bowl of hot meatball soup to eat refreshingly, but there were many people in the family, and it must be cooked in a large pot.

The meatballs that Wei Lanxiang made were the same size, and she could make it very fast with her hands. Lu Gu had never done this before, so he learned a few times. Because he wanted to stir-fry radish and steamed buns, he made a few meatballs and went to cook the vegetables.

Shen Yan boiled water and added firewood, she also learned from Wei Lanxiang by the way.

After the delicious meatballs were cooked, Lu Gu's dishes and steamed buns were served.

There were ten meatballs in each person's bowl. The minced meat was finely chopped, and the meatballs were very tender when you bit it. The broth was fresh and delicious. Even without shallots or chopped green leaves, it was delicious enough.

Wei Lanxiang drank the hot soup and felt comfortable all over her body. Seeing that everyone in the family was eating deliciously, she smiled and said: "

There's still some in the pot, so you can scoop it more. I made a lot of it today, I'm sure we can't finish it in one meal. Tomorrow I'll cut some radishes and put them in, it's good to eat. "

Shen Xuanqing bought a lot of meat, and the two brothers had a big appetite for meat, so Wei Lanxiang cooked in a big pot, and she was still willing to let her family to eat deliciously.

The hot soup, hot dishes, and hot steamed buns were warm and made everyone happy to eat it on a winter evening.

The sky was clear, the ground was dried in the sun. Under the wall in the shelter from the wind, Wei Lanxiang and Ji Qiuyue moved chairs to bask in the sun, they made shoe soles and sewed clothes, there was always work to do, and they couldn't be free.

After a while, Zhou Xiangjun brought Shen Yu over to visit. The country women did needlework in winter, and they loved this kind of sunny day the most. They could bask in the warmth of the sun and their hands were not cold.

Usually in this kind of good weather, there would be many women and fulangs in the village gathering together to gossip and laugh. Wei Lanxiang also liked to go to this kind of gathering in the previous years.

This year, because Ji Qiuyue was pregnant, she didn't go there. There were too many people from the village and there were children running around. It was the same to bask at home with peace of mind.

Shen Yuping's marriage hadn't been discussed so far, so Zhou Xiangjun couldn't help but sigh with few more words, and while he was talking, Quanzi's Fulang also came over to visit with his baby in his arms.     

Lu Gu wasn't often at home before, so he wasn't very familiar with Quanzi's fulang, but Wei Lanxiang was different, when she saw the chubby baby she was overjoyed, she hugged and played with him for a while, even Ji Qiuyue liked this baby very much.

Shen Yan came over to tease the fat baby. When she saw that Lu Gu took the hoe, she got up quickly and said, "Brother Guzi, I'm going too."

She turned to Zhou Xiangjun and Quanzi's fulang and said, "Third aunt, brother Zhen, I'm going out first."

"Go, be careful." Wei Lanxiang reminded her, she was at ease since Shen Xuanqing also went with them, so she didn't care too much, and continued to talk with Zhou Xiangjun.

Shen Xuanqing put the hoe in Lu Gu's hand into the bamboo basket on his back. Today was a good day, and Shen Yaoqing also went up the mountain to dig winter bamboo shoots with bambbo basket on his back. He also brought a hatchet and hemp rope to chop some firewood. In a few days, they had accumulated many firewood, and they used a cart to sell it in the town, which was more or less an income, and firewood also sold well in winter.

The bamboo groves was far away, and all four dogs in the family were brought with them.

Digging winter bamboo shoots was a laborious job, not easy. Finding underground winter bamboo shoots required experience. Shen Yan was young and rarely came to bamboo groves. Lu Gu had dug them before, even if he was not as experienced as Shen Yaoqing, he looked for cracks and the bulging on the ground to find the bamboo whip (

竹 鞭) and followed the bamboo whip to find the winter bamboo shoots, in the end he could dig up three winter bamboo shoots.

The winter bamboo shoot was hidden in the ground, you had to look for it carefully, and you had to grope it with your hands from time to time, otherwise it would be bad if you continued to dig it with a hoe and broke the bamboo whip or the winter bamboo shoots.

Shen Yan followed Shen Yaoqing to dig not far away. Lu Gu put the three winter bamboo shoots into the bamboo basket, and pushed the dug soil back with a hoe. Seeing that Shen Xuanqing dug the winter bamboo shoots, he carried the bamboo basket over to help.

Seeing him coming, Shen Xuanqing didn't let him do it, and said with a smile: "Go home and cook it with fried bacon, stewed chicken with bamboo shoots is also delicious."
