Chapter 227 The rain finally stopped
"Who doesn't like to listen to good words? Besides, that's what I praise my daughter. I am just happy to be a mother." This is the first time in this life that Zhou Shuilian has been respected like this by so many people. This feeling is quite good.
After Zhou Shuilian finished speaking, Mu Xiaocao couldn't help laughing, Mu Xiu also raised the corners of her mouth, and the three of them laughed for a while, and she had enough laughed. Mu Xiucai asked, "Where is Brother Chen?"
"Xuhui is so diligent. He took a water pump to the field early in the morning and said that we were not growing rice, so we should not be too wet in the field, so we should also pump water out." Zhou Shuilian replied.
"I hope this rain will end soon." Mu Xiu looked outside the yard, looking at the drizzling rain, and a look of worry appeared on his face.
"Oh, looking at this weather, it will take a while to take the rain. We have so many people to eat, so we can chew a lot a day. The vegetables in the field were all pulled out in the rain yesterday. In just a few days, there are still a lot of bacon and sausages. We have stored a lot of coarse grains in our family, and only less than twenty kilograms of white rice and white flour are left." Mu Xiaocao was a little worried. Although there was enough food, there was not much food.
"In the past, we only ate coarse grains, and there were no vegetables and pickles. This hen could lay more than a dozen eggs a day. I would definitely not be hungry, so don't worry." Zhou Shuilian glanced at Mu Xiaocao. No wonder she was so fat and thought about eating all day long. However, after this glance, Zhou Shuilian was a little stunned.
I don’t know when Mu Xiaocao started to lose weight. Now his chin has become shaped, and even his clothes look a little empty.
"Mom, what are you looking at? Your eyes are weird." Mu Xiaocao was so furious that he was staring at Zhou Shuilian's eyes.
"Xiaocao, are you okay? Why do you look thinner?"
Mu Xiu also looked at Mu Xiaocao, "Sister, you are so thin."
At this time, there was no big dressing mirror at home, and there was a very old and very fancy mirror on the wash frame at home. On weekdays, everyone would wash their faces casually and go to work. Unexpectedly, Mu Xiaocao changed without realizing it.
"I mean, why do I feel my clothes are a little loose recently? I thought they were washed too much." Mu Xiaocao reached out and pulled the clothes on his body. After pulling them in close proximity, he pulled out a lot of clothes and pinched his waist with his hands. He was really not as succulent as he could.
"Sister, how do you lose weight?" Mu Xiu asked with great interest.
"I'm living a lot recently, and it's normal to be a little thinner every day." Mu Xiaocao said dismissively.
"In the past, you worked so much at the Li family, but you didn't lose weight." Zhou Shuilian's words made Mu Xiaocao speechless for a moment. Yes, in the past, he had not eaten well at the Li family, and he only had a lot of work to do, but he still got fatter and fatter as he ate.
"We all eat the same food. The only difference is that the Angelica sinensis that Mu Xiu has been drinking for me for soaking water during this period. I like the taste very much." Mu Xiaocao thought about it carefully.
"Angelica Astragalus." Mu Xiu remembered. Some time ago, he panted and gasped when he saw Mu Xiaocao doing some work. He looked listless all day long, so he gave Mu Xiaocao the Angelica Astragalus Astragalus in the space and asked her to drink it after drinking it.
However, it is not surprising that Angelica sinensis can promote the circulation of qi and blood. Mu Xiaocao's weight may be due to deficiency of qi and blood. Angelica sinensis is beneficial for qi and blood loss. Blood can nourish qi and breed qi. When Mu Xiaocao's qi and blood are replenished, the whole person will naturally lose weight.
Originally, Mu Xiu was just thinking about replenishing Mu Xiaocao's qi and blood, but unexpectedly, it was a coincidence that Mu Xiaocao actually lost weight.
"We have lost weight, and we look a little like being a girl at home. Come on, let's change all the clothes today and look good in fitted clothes." Zhou Shuilian said happily. After all, her daughter looks good, and her face is also radiant.
"Yes, I'll make two skirts for Xiaohua and Pan, and they'll be beautiful." Mu Xiu nodded and said.
"The floral cloth you brought back last time was just right, so I'll get it." Zhou Shuilian walked into the inner room with a smile to get the cloth and needlework basket.
It was raining outside the house, and a few laughs came from inside the house from time to time. In this dull weather, it was particularly beautiful. This made Chen Xuhui and Mushui, who had just returned from outside, stand in the corridor and be stunned. After a long time, Mushui showed a bitter smile. It was him who pushed this happiness away, and he turned around and left. Chen Xuhui looked at Mushui, but did not chase him, but put the things down, wiped them randomly, and stepped into the main hall.
"Brother Chen, you are back." Mu Xiu heard the movement and looked up and saw Chen Xuhui.
"Mu Xiu, the water pump you made is really useful, it's just that your arms are a little tired." Chen Xuhui said with a silly smile, shook his arms that were still trembling.
"When our village has money, it will be much more convenient to buy automatic water pumps and tractors." Mu Xiuzhen missed the combined harvesters of later generations.
"After I finished pumping the water, I went around the river. Although the rain continued day by day, the water level of the river did not rise much. Other villagers went to see it and said that there would be no flood." Chen Xuhui's words also relaxed Mu Xiu's mood a lot, as long as there was no flood.
"It's okay, it'll be fine in a few days, don't worry." Mu Xiaocao just finished sewing a thread. When he picked up the needle to thread it, he replied.
Everyone thought Mu Xiaocao was just talking casually, but Mu Xiu let go of her brows. Her sister should have an impression of this heavy rain. No wonder she has been calm from the rain to the present. She just said she would go down for a while. It seems that it was just a heavy rain that did not cause much disaster.
As Mu Xiu thought, the rain gradually became smaller in the following days. Finally, on the twelfth day, a few drops of rain fell sparsely, and then stopped. There was only the sound of water dropping on the blue bricks in the whole yard.
"The sky finally clears." Early in the morning, Mu Xiu heard Zhou Shuilian's surprise sound outside the house.
Mu Xiu quickly put on her clothes and walked into the yard. No, not only the rain stopped, but the sun was coming out, and the sun was not as hot as before the rain, illuminating the earth warmly.
Li Pandi also happily rushed out of the room, stepped on the puddles on the blue bricks, and started playing happily. He stepped on it in a flash, splashing water, making her giggle non-stop.
"Let's go to the field to take a look." Mu Xiu didn't have much hope in his heart. After all, this heavy rain will definitely affect the harvest.
