Chapter 157 Peanut Crisps
Although Mo Lengzhou is the respected leader in the village, Lu Zhitao still prepared New Year gifts for the elders.
"Husband, that basket is a New Year's gift for the elders. You carry it and we'll go."
"Okay." Mo Lengzhou knew that his wife had a jade pendant space, but he never asked what good things were inside.
But the things his wife took out were all things he had eaten before in the palace. Apart from food, he had never seen anything else.
Seeing that the man didn't ask anything, Lu Zhitao obediently picked up the basket filled with peanut cakes and sesame cakes, "Wife, let's go."
"Aren't you curious about what I gave you?"
"My wife has a magical tool for cultivating immortals, so there must be good things in it." Mo Lengzhou said with a smile.
"I have nothing in my hand except food." Lu Zhitao said a little disappointedly.
She had never been to the city since she traveled through time, and apart from ripening crops, she had nothing else to do for the time being.
The peanuts and sesame seeds were ripened by her using her special powers, and the white sugar was a large bag that Song Zhuxin had put in between the rice.
"Wife, tell me what you need, and I will do my best to get it for you."
"Really? Then do you know anything about sugarcane?"
"This... I don't know! What is sugarcane?"
“If only we could find sugarcane seeds, then we could plant sugarcane and we wouldn’t be short of sugar.”
"Wife, don't be discouraged. There are so many refugees fleeing famine outside. Let's go out of the village and ask tomorrow."
"Well, it would be even better if we had an old hen. The half chicken leg I had yesterday wasn't enough to fill my stomach."
"If you don't have enough to eat, then share some with me." When Mo Lengzhou was moved to tears, he heard the naughty voice of his wife.
"One chicken drumstick isn't enough to fill you up! Then why don't I let you experience what it's like to not have enough to eat."
Her eyebrows were slightly raised, and a mischievous smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, like a cunning little fox, with a bit of teasing and provocation.
Mo Lengzhou was not angry at all, he laughed heartily, "Haha, my wife is really naughty, but I am still very touched."
The man's laughter was gentle and full of joy. He leaned forward slightly, with a doting look in his eyes.
In the sunlight, he seemed to be covered with a soft halo, making him look particularly charming.
"Are you touched already? There will be more touching things in the future!" Lu Zhitao said confidently.
Her eyes sparkled with playful light, twinkling like stars, which made Mo Lengzhou feel itchy.
Her expression is like a vivid painting, depicting the collision of unruly and charming.
"Wife, I will give you a surprise tonight." Mo Lengzhou said mysteriously.
"Okay, I'm looking forward to it~" Her voice was like a gentle breeze, blowing past his ears, with a hint of teasing and warmth.
The man's heartbeat accelerated at this moment, and he felt a sweet anticipation spreading in his heart.
"Let's walk faster, the elders should have arrived long ago." He swallowed slightly, his eyes reluctantly leaving her smiling face.
I was afraid that I would get lost in her smile again and forget everything else.
Seeing that she really quickened her pace, Mo Lengzhou was worried that she was tired, so he continued the previous topic and asked, "Wife, a hen only has two drumsticks!"
"As long as there is a hen, she can lay eggs one after another, and then the chickens lay eggs, and the eggs lay chickens, endlessly."
Lu Zhitao would not tell Mo Lengzhou that her special space not only allows plants to grow rapidly, but also allows for cultivation.
Space farming is particularly worry-free. All waste generated will be automatically absorbed into soil fertilizer, and Chi Jiaojiao does not need to do any extra work.
She only needs to put the things into a well-planned area, feed them daily, and then wait for the harvest.
The last time she hunted a goat, she now has about a thousand goats.
If she has a hen, she can completely fill an entire area with chickens and open up space for large-scale breeding.
But she didn't want to tell this to the man, even if he was her closest lover, she didn't want him to know.
As a person, you have to have your own secrets to be invincible.
"Husband, when we catch the old hen, we will steam two bowls of fragrant egg custard every day and drizzle it with sesame oil for breakfast."
Her laughter and that focused look made Mo Lengzhou want to reach out and hold her in his arms.
"My wife's words make me want to drool." Mo Lengzhou's mind immediately appeared her busy figure in the kitchen.
"When we get to the provincial capital, I can make more delicious food for you to try." Lu Zhitao was always tempting the man to leave the mountains.
She could sense that he wanted to stop and just stay with her in this remote mountain place for the rest of his life.
"Wife, you always want to give me surprises. We will set off in two days." He said with a smile.
He thought silently in his heart that his wife really loved him and thought of him in everything.
Mo Lengzhou couldn't help but smile, and his heart felt warm as spring.
He felt her deep love more and more, like a delicate silk thread that tightly connected their hearts.
In his miserable twenty-five years of life, he felt that having such an emotion was extremely precious.
This is a simple yet intoxicating happiness, she makes him feel the richness and fulfillment of life.
Mo Lengzhou's heart was filled with sweet emotions. His wife's care and concern made his life more colorful.
He knew that having her by his side on this journey of life was his greatest fortune.
It’s not impossible to leave the mountains. As long as she is by their side, anywhere will be their home.
The couple walked slowly towards the village dining hall, each step making a slight creaking sound.
The aroma of food wafts faintly in the air, accompanied by the festive atmosphere of the New Year, which warms one's heart.
The elders of the clan had already gathered at the door of the dining hall to bask in the sun. Lu Zhitao took a deep breath.
His eyes passed through the jumping children and fixed on a few elders.
They sat together, laughing and talking about stories of the past, wrinkles carving out the traces of time, and their eyes sparkling with wisdom.
Seeing them coming, he immediately stood up and greeted them respectfully, "Village Chief, Madam, Happy New Year."
"Happy New Year, elders! I wish you good health and longevity." Her voice was clear, like the flowing of a mountain stream.
Then, she took out peanut crisps and sesame cakes from the basket in Mo Lengzhou's hand and handed them to them.
There was a hint of respect in his gentle smile, "This is a New Year's gift from us."
"We are not worthy of the New Year's gift from Madam!" Clan leader Ning bowed slightly and took it from Lu Zhitao's hand.
"This is made by Tao'er herself. Please don't be shy. Take it back and let your family try it. We will make a lot of peanut crisps next year."
"Ah! Did the lady do it herself?"
