Chapter 284 Soup Rice

After she had packed up everything she needed to pack, she asked Chu Anshan, "Anshan, are you going to the county to deliver matchboxes and medicine bags again tomorrow?"

"Yes what's the matter?"

"I'll go with you tomorrow, and we can go see a Chinese doctor to check your pulse."

"Maybe next time. I'm busy this time and can't take you to see a Chinese doctor for your pulse."

"what's up?"

"It's just a small matter, it can be done quickly."

"Okay, then I'll go to the county with you next time."

"Okay, you've been tired all morning, go lie down on the kang and take a nap."

Meng Qiuping nodded after hearing Chu Anshan's words, and then she went back to her room to rest.

At around four o'clock in the afternoon, Chu Yiling woke up and stretched. She immediately got off the bed and ran to the toilet.

When she came back from the toilet, she saw Chu Anshan picking up beef bones in the kitchen, so she asked Chu Anshan, "Dad, are you planning to make soup?"

"Yes, take out some radishes. I plan to use these bones to make radish soup."

"Do you want to ask Mom?"

"Your mother asked me to cook it. Although my cooking is not very good, I can still make soup. However, your mother needs to do the seasoning at the end."

After hearing what Chu Anshan said, Chu Yiling felt relieved and took out five carrots from the space and handed them to Chu Anshan. Then she asked Chu Anshan, "Dad, where is my mom?"

"Sleep in the room, don't disturb her."

"I understand. I'll help you light the fire."

"Go put on your smock first, otherwise your clothes will get dirty and it will be difficult to wash."

When Chu Yiling heard what Chu Anshan said, she turned around and went back to her room to put on her smock. After she put on her smock and returned to the kitchen, she sat in front of the stove to help Chu Anshan light the fire.

Meng Qiuping woke up at around five in the evening and smelled the fragrant aroma of carrot soup. She got up, put on her clothes, and walked towards the kitchen.

"Mom, you're awake. Dad and I have already cooked the carrot and beef bone soup. All we need is the seasoning."

"Let me see." Meng Qiuping said as she lifted the lid of the pot. The carrot soup immediately became more flavorful, making her want to drink it.

So she got the salt shaker from the cupboard and started adding salt to the soup.

She stopped adding salt until the soup had a light salty taste and said to Chu Yiling, "Lingling, get a big bucket of soup from the space."

When Chu Yiling heard Meng Qiuping's words, she said "OK" and took out a big bucket from the space and handed it to Meng Qiuping.

Then she asked Meng Qiuping, "Mom, what staple food do you want to eat tonight?"

"I also can."

"Then let's eat rice. Rice in soup is best eaten in cold weather."

"Okay, first help me put the soup into the space, and then ask your dad to bring the soup in the bowl to the table."

When Chu Yiling heard Meng Qiuping's words, she immediately ran out of the kitchen and asked Chu Anshan to bring the soup.

After Chu Anshan brought the soup to the dining table, she took out a large bowl of rice from the space, and then she sat at the dining table with Chu Anshan waiting for Meng Qiuping.

"Why don't you eat first?"

"We wanted to wait for you to eat together."

Meng Qiuping felt very pleased when she heard Chu Yiling's words. Then she picked up a spoon and served a bowl of soup to Chu Yiling and Chu Anshan respectively, and let them drink first.

She first served herself half a bowl of rice, poured the soup into the rice and mixed it, then picked up the spoon and started eating. She finished the bowl of rice in a short while.

Suddenly she felt warm in her stomach. Lingling was right. Rice soaked in soup was indeed the best thing to eat in cold weather.
