Chapter 39(1/2)
The young couple dug a dustpan full of yellow mud.
In the little girl's protest.
Zhao Ce directly picked up the dustpan filled with yellow mud with a hoe and walked back with the little girl.
The villagers they met on the road basically took one look at them and quickly got out of the way.
Go to the side.
Those who were chatting with each other saw the yellow mud in Zhao Ce's dustpan and muttered: "What's going on with Zhao Ce?"
"A scholar, who just had a quarrel with Lao Liu's house, is now going to the fields himself?"
"It's clear and sunny, instead of going to school, I'm going to play in the mud."
"Hey, don't tell me, the way he picks up the yellow mud is quite pretty."
"It is indeed different from us farmers. Those with straight backs, tsk tsk..."
"He is indeed a scholar."
"But his little lady's legs and feet are a bit serious, aren't they?"
"It's still unnatural to walk so slowly."
"I don't know if the dowry Zhao Ce mentioned is true."
"But if it weren't true that this little lady is full of diseases, he probably wouldn't want it."
The news of the fight between Zhao Ce and Uncle Six's family had spread throughout Shuiqiao Village in a short time.
Now when everyone sees Zhao Ce, they no longer dare to shout "Master Zhao, Master Wenquxing".
After all, as a scholar, it was easy for Zhao Ce not to argue with them before.
If you really want to be as serious as you are to Uncle Six's family.
They definitely can't defeat Zhao Ce.
And there is no guarantee that Zhao Ce will become a high official in the future and come back to hate them.
This is not good.
But just because you don’t dare to speak loudly doesn’t mean you won’t talk in a low voice.
Many people stood far away, whispering to the people next to them.
From time to time, he would point his finger at the young couple.
Zhao Ce is thick-skinned and doesn't care about them at all.
Those sounds were too low, Su Cai'er couldn't hear them clearly.
But she knew that these people were giving advice to her and her husband.
She's used to being told what to do.
I won't care too much.
Su Cai'er puffed out her chest a little, hoping to cover her husband.
In this way, when others see her, they will only point her out.
She doesn't know how to give advice to her husband.
And in this way, it can also block the sun from your husband.
Su Cai'er thinks her idea is quite good.
A little proudly turned his head and glanced at the husband next to him.
But found...
Her height is too short.
She could only block her husband's arm.
Zhao Ce felt the little girl's eyes and looked down at her.
But I found that the little girl who was full of fighting spirit just now suddenly felt a little depressed.
Zhao Ce: "?"
Looking at the little girl's face that was flushed red by the sun.
Zhao Ce suddenly realized.
I guess I'm feeling a little uncomfortable because I've been exposed to too much sun?
He took a step slower and stretched his legs.
The hoe handle on the shoulder passed directly over the little girl's head.
Then Zhao Ce walked from the left side of the little girl to the right side.
This series of actions flowed smoothly.
The whole process only takes a few seconds.
Su Cai'er raised her head in confusion.
She saw that her husband had moved from her left side to her right side.
That tall body blocked all the sun for her.
Zhao Ce smiled and said: "The sun is a bit bright, you go this way."
"I just want to block the sun for you."
Su Caier's eyes widened slightly.
Her husband actually thinks the same thing as her?
Su Cai'er smiled sweetly: "I, I'm not afraid of being in the sun."
Zhao Ce stretched out his free hand and scratched the little girl's face with his fingers.
"Hiss, so hot~"
"My face is almost ripe from the sun."
Su Cai'er also applied the patch with the back of her hand, and it was indeed a bit hot.
She raised her little face and said sweetly: "Thank you, husband."
Zhao Ce smiled and gently poked the small pear dimple at the corner of her mouth.
"Let's go."
...
After the two returned home, Zhao Ce began to prepare the tools for the yellow mud water-drench sugar method.
Because he was afraid of failure, he was not prepared to boil all the raw sugar.
Only take out part of it and let Su Cai'er make sugar water.
Originally when charcoal was used to make sugar.
Su Cai'er already felt that her husband might be a god-like figure in the sky.
But I never thought that this yellow mud could also be used to make white sugar.
Can you still eat the candy that has been touched by yellow mud?
She tilted her little head in confusion.
But Su Cai'er completely trusted her husband's words.
Since your husband says it’s okay, then of course it’s okay!
So, she followed his instructions honestly and started to make new sugar water.
Zhao Ce selected some better ones from the hay the little girl picked up from the river.
Rinse it with water and put it aside to dry.
There is no such thing as a tile at home.
But this does not trouble Zhao Ce.
He directly took an old clay pot and knocked a small hole in the bottom of the pot.
This is considered a simple tile slip.
Just this way.
The pot at home is also in a hurry.
Except for the two big pots in the stove.
The remaining small pots are for boiling charcoal, boiling sugar water, and breaking them.
These clay pots are all put to good use.
