Chapter 52

"Only you know to speak eloquently!" Lin Qing He was a little embarrassed and glared at Er Wa.

Er Wa giggled. Lin Qing He picked up San Wa and put him in Zhou Qing Bai's arms: "Hug your son, he is warm all over."

San Wa stayed in his father's arms and blinked at his mother with big eyes, which expressed that he is very obedient and be his father's body warmer.

"Instead of bean paste bun for lunch, we're having lump soup." Lin Qing He harrumphed and stated.

Previously a lot of sticky bean paste buns were made, and there were still leftovers. A lot of leftovers.

She initially planned to eat this for lunch, but now she changed her mind.

The lump soup was the kids' favorite, especially the lump soup made by their mother, which was really yummy.

Lump soup was very easy to make. Lin Qing He used a lot of ingredients, including chopped mushrooms, minced meat, and eggs. There were no delicious vegetables during this season, otherwise, the taste will be better after adding green vegetables and tomatoes.

Zhou Qing Bai had no complaints about what his wife makes. He eats whatever she cooks.

After the children had their fill, they went to Kang. At this time, it was still snowing outside. It just was too cold.

Lin Qing He chopped the mutton by herself.

Including the skin and bone, it was three jins. Lin Qing He put in a half. The other half was left for tomorrow to eat. In this weather, it won't turn bad from leaving it out.

She placed it on the coal stove and stewed it. It'll be ready to eat at night.

"It's too cold. You brothers better bundle up for me. And you're not allowed to drink cold water. If I find out you drank cold water, you won't get anything to eat then!" Lin Qing He strictly instructed. She especially looked at Da Wa.

Da Wa cried out in injustice: "I don't do it now!" What's more, the winter was so freezing. Only fool would drink cold water!

Lin Qing He nodded: "It's fine if you don't. Tonight you get an extra piece of lamb."

"Me too," Er Wa said.

"Okay, give you extra," Lin Qing He responded.

Zhou Qing Bai watched the mother and sons interact. His gaze mostly focused on Lin Qing He.

Lin Qing He raised her eyes to glance at him. She coughed dryly and said: "You must be exhausted from this morning, sleep a bit."

"You sleep too." Zhou Qing Bai steadily looked at her.

The woolen pant in Lin Qing He's hand was almost ready, so she put them away first. The whole family took a nap on the kang. When she got up, Lin Qing He continued to knit the woolen pants.

Zhou Qingbai was no longer on the kang. At this time, he had to make pig food for the piglets, so he was preoccupied.

Lin Qing He was thankful that there was still some wool at home that would allow her to pass the time. Otherwise, there was no way to pass the days. It was really boring.

At around four o'clock in the afternoon, she completed the woolen pant.

Then she started knitting the second one, because there was really nothing to do. The speed of knitting pants wasn't slow at all.

It was really idle on these snowy days.

The smell of mutton and goji berry soup in the pot was already fragrant. Lin Qing He saw that it was cooked and scooped some. for Zhou Qing Bai to deliver to Father Zhou and Mother Zhou.

Da Wa? Forget it. The snow outside was pretty hefty. It was better to stay in the room on this freezing day.

"Mutton soup? Keep it for yourself. You don't need to bring it over." Mother Zhou refused.

"My wife said to bring it." Zhou Qing Bai maintained, then went to the kitchen to get the bowls. He poured it out. Just perfect, two bowl full and two pieces of lamb, one for each.

Zhou Qing Bai didn't stay any longer. He went back after distributing it.

Father Zhou and Mother Zhou didn't act reserved, so they drank the warm mutton soup.

"Fourth's wife's cooking skill is really good," Mother Zhou remarked while drinking soup.

Whether it was pickled eggs or this mutton soup or the occasional ginger date soup that was sent over, the taste was superb.

Moreover, Mother Zhou felt that her body had been warmed a lot this year. Don’t know if it was linked to these soups.
