Back To Qiqi Farming To Raise Children

  Chapter 126 Sour Hoe Board

  Xu Shiyan rummaged through the cabinet and found the sewing ticket, "Fortunately, I didn't lose it. I'll go to the store of the Forestry Bureau another day and just buy one."

  Lao Liu has been learning cutting for so long, so he dare not say anything else, but it is definitely no problem to step on the sewing machine.

   If you buy it back, you won’t be idle and no one will use it, so buy it.

   "Huh? Third brother, you want to buy a sewing machine? Farewell, that thing is too expensive."

  A sewing machine costs one hundred and fifty yuan, why spend that money?

   "The account cannot be calculated in this way. If a sewing machine is used well, it will be fine for decades.

  If we have a sewing machine in our family, you will be able to cut it, and then the whole family will make their own clothes. Wouldn’t it save money in a few years?

   Besides, how many people in Donggang know how to cut and sew?

  When you finish your studies, you can buy all the tools. If nothing else, you can set up a small tailor shop in our house to make clothes for others. Isn’t it good? "

  Xu Shiyan shook his head with a smile, one hundred and fifty yuan was still easy for him to take out.

  Sewing machine, one of the three major items in this year, has to be bought sooner or later.

  Xu Shiqin was a little moved by what his brother said, "Third brother, are you really planning to buy it?"

   "Buy, I will go when I find time these few days, and plant all our vegetable gardens first."

  The vegetable garden of Xu’s family is quite big. It’s not enough to just grow vegetables. How can there be so many vegetables for such a few people?

  Xu Shiyan plans to grow some yellow smoke, sweet potatoes, and corn in the vegetable garden. The yellow smoke can be sold, and the sweet potato and corn can be eaten as a meal.

  A while ago, Xu Shiyan got up early every day to dig the ground. The vegetable garden was almost done, and all kinds of vegetables that should be planted were also planted.

   At present, the yellow tobacco seeds and sweet potato seedlings are not available at home, so I have to go back to the big house to find them.

   Just a few days later Su Anying confinement, Zhou Guilan has lived here for more than a month, she must go back to the big house.

  Xu Shiyan planned to drop by to find some yellow tobacco seeds and sweet potato seedlings when he was sending his mother home.

   "Okay, you brothers and sisters, stop chattering there, pack up and eat quickly."

  Zhou Guilan had already prepared dinner and greeted the brother and sister with a smile.

   "I was so busy talking to Lao Liu that I forgot about the business.

  Mom, let’s have dinner later. Today I picked up a few handfuls of celery and a few wild eggs. Let’s prepare two more dishes.

  I’ve only eaten small tofu for the past two days, and I’m getting sick from eating it. "

  Xu Shiyan suddenly remembered that there was still something in his backpack, so he went to the outhouse to find the backpack, and took out the celery and wild eggs inside.

   "Oh, this big leaf celery is not too tall.

  The Donggang side has a later solar term than the big house side, and it’s almost too late to eat at our place at this time. "

  Zhou Guilan looked at the half-foot-tall Da Yeqin and muttered.

   "Well, Donggang has a late solar term, I think it can be ten days later than the big house."

  The altitude of Donggang is high, it is close to Changbai Mountain, and the temperature is low. It is true that the solar terms are a few days later.

   "Hey, old six, I also picked a pickle board, here you are."

  Xu Shiyan took out a pickle board from his pocket and handed it to Xu Shiqin.

   "Now you are no longer in the big house, and there is nowhere to pick a big neck for you."

  The big neck is also a kind of sour plant.

  A single stem with a large leaf growing on it, most of which grow under the stone ladles by the river.

  The stem is one and a half feet high, it can be eaten when tender, sour and slightly astringent.

  In the era when snacks are scarce, it is also very happy to be able to eat a big neck.

  In addition to sour **** boards and big necks, there are tiger polygonum seeds that can be eaten in spring.

  Tiger Polygonum is actually the seedling of raspberry, the kind of tender seedling that emerges directly from the ground, half a foot high and thick with chopsticks.

  Pick off the leaves, peel off the skin and thorns outside the stems, and eat the tender stems inside.

  The good taste is the fragrance with a little sweetness, while others are bitter with astringency, all depends on luck.

   Anyway, the children in the mountains have already developed the ability to dare to eat anything.

  In spring, sour **** board, big neck, tiger Polygonum, in summer, mountain sesame flower, oxbolinggaer, tray, and Dianzao.

  In autumn, people eat wild grapes, schisandra, jujubes, and even stinky plums.

   Especially stinky plums, which are sour and astringent, can't move the tongue after eating, and the tongue will be stained purple-black.

  Eating too much can't poop, but there are still a lot of children who love to eat.

  In the era of scarcity of supplies, children could not eat shrimp chips and popcorn, nor could they drink Coke Sprite Mirinda.

  But they will try their best to find everything that can be imported to obtain simple happiness and satisfaction.

   "My third brother is better, he thinks about me in everything." Xu Shiqin quickly took the sour hoe, pinched one and chewed it in his mouth.

  The sour taste diffused in the mouth, and the saliva immediately became richer.

   "This thing is really appetizing." While talking, Xu Shiqin walked into the house with the pickle board.

   "Don't give it to your third sister-in-law, she is in confinement, she can't eat these."

  Sour **** board is cold in nature, and the whole plant can cure burns. Su Anying is still in confinement, so she can't eat that thing.

  Xu Shiqin promised, put the sour **** board in the Westinghouse, then took the sickle into the vegetable garden, cut two handfuls of leeks, washed them and cut them into sections, and kept the fried wild eggs.

  Zhou Guilan took a handful of celery and shook it, then picked off the leaves and grass, washed it with water, and threw it in a pot to scald it.

  Then take it out, put it in cold water, squeeze it dry, cut it into sections and add some chopped green onion, some salt and soy sauce and mix it.

  Wild vegetables like to be fried in oil. It doesn’t taste good when fried without oil. It’s better to mix them with cold dishes.

   "There seems to be a piece of bacon at home, I will chop it up tomorrow, let's make buns to eat.

  Dayeqin is best eaten with cabbage buns or dumplings. "Zhou Guilan kept her hands on and said while mixing vegetables.

  Xu Shiyan wanted to say, what kind of buns should I make? Dumplings are delicious, and Dayeqin dumplings are a must.

   But think about it again, how to make dumplings?

   Meat is okay, the meat ticket that Guo Shouye gave last time is still there, but you can buy it, what about white noodles?

  There is a little white flour left at home. The last time the father-in-law and mother-in-law came, they made dumplings. How can there be dumplings without white bread?

   Forget it, buns are just buns, and vegetable buns with corn noodles are also pretty good, so don’t think so much about them this year.

   Waiting for the spring of next year, I will catch two piglets high and low to raise them, not for anything else, just eat some meat at home.

  I didn't dare to raise this year, mainly because Su Anying gave birth to a baby, and she was afraid that she would be tired. Moreover, the family's foundation is weak, and there is not much food, so what to feed?

  There were two extra dishes for dinner, cold celery and fried wild eggs with leeks. Unfortunately, Su Anying didn't take a bite of these two.

  Chives return to milk, and cold vegetables cannot be eaten by confinement women, for fear of her diarrhea.

  Su Anying just watched helplessly, with a pitiful look on her face.

   "Daughter-in-law, you can eat cabbage buns tomorrow, so you can bear with it tonight.

   You will be confinement in a few days, it will be fine when you are confinement, you can eat whatever you want. "

  Xu Shiyan, who was eating vegetables with his head down, suddenly looked up and saw his daughter-in-law's resentful eyes, and hurried to comfort her.
