I farmed and raised cubs in ancient times

Chapter 68

brother?Second brother?
"A gentleman promises a thousand gold, and I will be your big brother from now on." Ye Heng smiled.

Xiaopang pouted: "What? I'm obviously older than you, okay?"

"But, were you the one who said the eldest brother, not the second brother?" Ye Heng pointed at Xiaopang: "You don't mean anything, you lie, you are not a good boy."

"That's not it, I'm a good kid, you're not." Xiaopang was not convinced, and retorted: "The mulberry fruit you gave me just now is the smallest one in your hand, don't think I didn't See, cheapskate."

"I'm not a cheapskate, hmph, my aunt gave it to me, and I can give you whichever one I want." Ye Heng raised her lips and said arrogantly: "You have the ability to let you Mother will pick such a big one for you too!"

When Xiaopang heard this, he immediately became furious.

"Ah bah, I wouldn't have eaten your mulberry fruit if I had known, you are so unreasonable, I don't want to play with you anymore." Xiaopang spit on the ground, trotted to complain under the mulberry tree: "Aunt Jiang, Aunt Jiang, little Fat people also want to eat mulberries, but he won’t give me radishes.”

Jiang Zhi stood on the tree, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

The two children quarreled quite well, and their own children were very strong in fighting, which made them come to complain.

"Okay, Aunt Jiang will pick some big ones for you too." Jiang Zhi took several big ones from the top of the tree, stretched them out in front of Xiaopang, and said, "These are for you, quickly take them down and eat them."

"Okay, thank you, Aunt Jiang." Xiaopang saluted Jiang Zhi before taking the mulberries in his pocket.

"You are welcome."

Seeing that Jiang Zhi gave mulberry to Xiaopang, Ye Heng ran over angrily, stomped his feet and said, "Mother, I want it too."

"Don't you still have it in your hand?" Jiang Zhi said with a smile.

"But this is the biggest fruit, I want to leave it to my mother and little aunt." Ye Heng scratched the back of his head.

Xiaopang licked his hands stained with mulberry juice, and suddenly stopped: "So you gave me the youngest because of this, I won't be angry with you anymore."

"Of course, I want to give my mother the best." Ye Heng tilted his head and smiled at Jiang Zhi on the tree.

Jiang Zhi was completely moved.

He is really a good son for his mother, and he deserves to love and love you for his mother.

"We are so cute." Jiang Zhi praised.Ye Heng was praised, and made up with Xiaopang again, and the two squatted in the grass to catch bugs.

Jiang Zhi had to take a look at it from time to time to make sure that the children were safe and sound.

There are [-] mulberry trees around the sugarcane field, and the mulberry leaves obtained every year are sold to silkworm farmers. But this year, no one came to inquire, so they were allowed to develop freely.

In my memory, at the end of autumn and the beginning of winter every year, most of the branches on the mulberry tree will be cut off, and these branches will grow again in the next spring.

Only in this way, the mulberry leaves will be more green in the coming year.

In a more scientific way, the act of cutting mulberry branches is to preserve the nutrients in the mulberry tree, so that when the mulberry leaves mature in the next spring, they will be full of nutrients, and the quality of silk produced by the raised silkworms will be higher.

I don't know why no one came up to collect mulberry leaves this year.

There are still a few immature mulberries on the mulberry tree, which are cheap for birds or other children.

"Baby, it's time for us to go back." Jiang Zhi waved at Ye Heng, and the two children raised their heads one after another.

Ye Heng pouted, looked at Xiaopang, then at Jiang Zhi, showing a reluctant expression: "But mother, I still want to play with Xiaopang for a while."

"Then you can invite Xiaopang to our house." Jiang Zhirou said.

"Are you going to my house?" Ye Heng asked.

"Is there anything interesting in your house?" Xiaopang asked back.

"Of course, well, my little uncle made me a pony."

"Wow, I'm going, I'm going."

The two children showed their purple mouths at the same time, and even their hands and clothes were stained with mulberry juice.

Jiang Zhi raised her forehead, and she walked behind, watching the two little devils in front of them running all the way.

When they got home, Jiang Zhi washed them both with clean water first, and then let them play.

It is a good thing that Ye Heng has playmates.

After all, who doesn't want to have a good childhood.

Jiang Zhi washed all the mulberries, dried them with water, and chopped them into mulberry puree.Then take out two catties of rock sugar and put it in a pot, add water and cook on low heat.

After a while, there was a sweet smell in the air.

Xiaopang swallowed, and sniffed the air with his nose.

"Aunt Jiang, what are you cooking? It smells so good, it smells like sugar."

"It's sugar." Jiang Zhi broke off a piece of brown sugar and gave it to Xiaopang. Xiaopang refused at first, but then couldn't resist the temptation of the sugar, so he still took it.

Just when he was about to eat it in one bite, he suddenly remembered that Little Carrot said that he would give the biggest mulberry to his mother. Thinking of the mother who treated him best at home, Xiao Pang just broke off a little bit of brown sugar and put it in his mouth, and then Carefully put the rest into the pouch.

Good things must be shared with mother.

When the sugar was almost boiled, Jiang Zhi poured a large bowl of mulberry puree into it and kept stirring until the sugar and mulberries were evenly mixed, then poured it on the oiled chopping board.

Ye Xiaomei moved away from the sewing frame smelling the smell.

"Is this mulberry candy?" Just now she saw her sister-in-law put a big bowl of mulberry in it.

"That's right." Jiang Zhi cut a small piece of mulberry candy that hadn't completely solidified, handed it to Ye Xiaomei, and said, "Taste it quickly."

Ye Xiaomei blew with her chopsticks.

"It's so sweet, it has the aroma of mulberries, and it's like plums." Ye Xiaomei commented after tasting it carefully.

"The second room helped us a lot before, so I wanted to give something back. Candy is the most precious thing, so they won't be able to see the color of the candy after this." Jiang Zhi only said this, and Ye Xiaomei completely understood .

The white sugar thing remains a secret.

In the evening, Xiaopang's mother came to pick up Xiaopang.

Xiaopang hasn't got a name yet, and people in the village call him Xiaopang because he was raised white and fat.

His mother's surname is Yan, and everyone calls her Yan Siniang.Yan Siniang's family moved to Yejia Village with her husband a few years ago. Yan Siniang's husband, Qian Chuan, was in the grocery business, commonly known as a salesman.

Usually carrying a load of goods to sell around, it is not uncommon for him to not be home for ten days and half a month.

However, their husband-wife relationship is notoriously good in the village.

Qian Chuan loved his wife and children very much, and gave his wife all the hard-earned money he earned from selling goods. With the money, Yan Siniang saved five acres of land and built three wooden houses in just a few years.

Yan Siniang was rather shy, and before she could say a few words to Jiang Zhi, she blushed.

This is the same fight as the fearful butcher before, the difference is that Yan Siniang is softer and not as vicious as the butcher.

However, Jiang Zhi felt that Yan Siniang had an aura that did not belong to the countryside. Although she tried her best to conceal it, the rules of walking, sitting and lying in her were by no means cultivated by ordinary people.
