farm wife

Chapter 29

Big potatoes can not only be stewed with chicken, but also stewed with bones.Don't look at it growing fat, but you can still get some food from time to time if you stay here, and you might not even get the skin if you take it back.

It is true that she can grab food by force, but is that necessary?
"Good boy, big sister will bring you here tomorrow and eat chicken." Looking at the remote mountains and wild forests, the most common prey is pheasants and rabbits, but these are not very valuable, so he has to find a way to get some valuable ones.

Wild boars are not very valuable, but they are big and can be sold for a few more dollars.

He lowered his head and pinched the corner of the clothes. Xia Jiu wore the only good skirt, and the rest were all patched. The fabric was so fragile that it would tear easily.

As the saying goes, three years of new, three years of old, three years of sewing and mending, this...

If my memory is correct, it is Mrs. Xu's clothes that she would wear when she was young. She has worn them for 30 to [-] years, and only transferred them to her when she really didn't want to wear them.

I heard that it was originally intended to be used as a foot wipe, but I gave it to her because she had no clothes to wear.

But let's not say, the dress fits well.

Facts once again proved that not only did she have the same face as Mrs. Xu when she was young, but she even had a similar figure, as if she was carved out of the same mold.

Thinking of Mrs. Xu, it was like seeing myself when I was old...

Pooh!
Dayan couldn't help complaining in his heart, whoever wants to look like that dead old woman, even if he is old, he must be dignified and elegant, and he must not be so vitriolic and disgusting.

"What were you talking about just now? Go back quickly, it's getting dark later." Da Yan suddenly came back to his senses, he seemed to hear Gou Wa just now, but he couldn't hear clearly, so he just didn't ask, and walked away with the mushroom in his arms .

There was a small piece of Bawanglian growing in that wild pond, with three or four leaves, and she was asked to pick two of them at once.The newly picked Bawanglian leaves are like a big round dustpan, which is just right for mushrooms, and mushrooms are not heavy things anyway.

Grasping the lotus leaves on both sides, and hanging the bamboo tube around his waist, he walked back easily.

Gouwa was stunned, what does the elder sister mean by this?
"Elder Sister, wait for me." Gou Wa chased after holding the earthen pot, and asked in his mouth: "What I just said, Eldest Sister, did you hear, do you agree?"

Da Yan paused for a moment, then turned around and asked, "What did you just say?"

Gou Wa hurriedly said: "Elder Sister, Daddy is also very tired every day. When we come tomorrow, can you cook a little more and leave some food for Daddy, as Daddy can't get enough to eat every day."

The corner of Big Smoke's mouth twitched: "Let him eat dung!"

Who is Xu Laosan?With a height of 1.8 meters [-], five limbs are sound, he has a strong back, and he can carry a heavy weight.

Why should she find food for her? She hasn't finished paying for that shoe sole yet.

Gouwa looked confused, and frowned: "Sister, feces stink, you can't eat it."

"Then eat more wild vegetables." Da Yan said with a serious face, "Eating rice alone is obviously not enough these days. Fortunately, there are enough wild vegetables. If you are hungry, you can take it... No, let him eat more wild vegetables. Look at it." , there are wild vegetables all over the mountains and plains, you can eat them with your head down, and you don’t have to worry about being hungry.”

Gouwa frowned even more, and said, "But big sister, the wild vegetables are not tasty."

Dayan rubbed Gouwa's head with his arm, and said very seriously: "Gouwa, you have to know, no one's life is hard these days, our family's situation is already very good, no matter how bad it is, we still have rice soup to drink .Like some people in the north, they don’t drink rice soup on weekdays, but they can’t even eat wild vegetables. For half a year in their place, even weeds don’t grow, so it’s a blessing to be able to eat wild vegetables.”

Gouwa seemed to understand, but he didn't quite understand, so he nodded blankly.

It's really pitiful that I can't even eat rice soup or wild vegetables.

The eldest sister is right, every meal is already very good now, so I can't be too picky.

If it were the slack season, the food at home would not be so good. Three meals a day would be porridge, and the green vegetables might not be enough. Many times, we would have to dig wild vegetables.

I heard from my father that this is already very good. Others drink rice soup on weekdays, and they won't feel full after drinking it.

"But does this have something to do with saving food for dad?" But Gouwa still doesn't understand.

That said it was when there was nothing to eat, but now that there is something to eat, why not save some for dad?

"Of course it does matter." Da Yan flickered solemnly: "You don't know if you haven't read the book. As the saying goes, it's easy to go from frugal to extravagant, but difficult to go from extravagant to frugal. We can't hurt Dad, let him eat delicious food now , but in the future he can only drink dilute food and eat grass in pain, it will kill him."

"Goofy, we must be filial and not harm our father, you understand?"

Gouwa: "..."

It makes sense, but he still doesn't understand, and always feels that something is wrong.

Da Yan didn't think that a four-year-old child could understand the superficial meaning, so he changed the subject naturally: "Goofy, is the earthen pot sinkable? Do you want my sister to help you?"

Gouwa nodded stupidly: "It's a bit heavy, but Gouwa can hold it."

"Gouwa is a good boy. Let's go. If you really can't hold him anymore, tell me. She will hold you for you." Damian nodded. She was indeed an obedient child. It's a pity that she doesn't have free hands now, otherwise she would have to touch her. His brains.

Gouwa: "Sister, I can't hold her anymore."

Big Smoke: "..."

To tell the truth, for a four-year-old child, it is very good to be able to walk the mountain road without being held by others. How much help can we expect from him?Just an empty earthen jar would sink too much, not to mention that there are still things in it, and if you are not careful, it can be broken into eight pieces.

Not depressed not depressed, nothing to be depressed.

Dayan put down the mushroom, and the crock pot took it with his elbow, picked up the mushroom and continued walking.

At this time, the sun was about to set, and the people in the fields were about to call it a day.

When Dayan took Gouwa out of the mountain, the Xu family was about to call it a day and go home.

Sanfang and the others took a look at the mountain pass from time to time. After all, the mountain was not safe, and they were always worried that Dayan would lead people into the deep mountain in a daze.

"It's coming out, big sister is coming out." Dayan was the first to see it with sharp eyes, and immediately shouted.

Xu Laosan made his head to look behind Dayan, and finally saw Gouwa, who was tightly blocked behind him. He breathed a sigh of relief, and cursed in a low voice: "Damn girl, I haven't seen you for a long time." Going down the mountain, I thought she died on the mountain."

Shan Shi was next to her, and said after listening, "Her head hurts, and she must not be able to walk fast. After picking up so many mushrooms, she must have walked a lot, and it's normal to be late."

Xu Laosan muttered: "Why does her head hurt? I don't think she has anything to do, and she just wants to be lazy."

Shan hurriedly looked aside, thinking that no one heard Xu Laosan's words, so she breathed a sigh of relief, but she was very angry in her heart.

This father doesn't know how to feel sorry for his daughter.
