Dad's Pastoral Life

Chapter 459 Dad, do you think my earrings look good?
Cheng He actually likes to watch the "God Is Crazy" series very much.

When he saw it before, he felt that the small plane was awesome, easy to operate, quite fun, and very practical in a place like Africa.

That was a movie 30 years ago. At that time, the props and equipment were still very backward and primitive, but it looked very down-to-earth and full of reverie.

Perhaps everyone has had the dream of flying in the sky, right?At that time, Cheng He also really wanted to own such a plane. It should be very interesting to drive it anywhere for fun.

Otherwise, he would not have thought of suggesting that Xiaolian Mountain build a gliding area.

After all, they are people who love to play.

While chatting here, I heard a child's voice outside: "Xinxin, Xinxin, are you in the house?"

The kid next door, Cheng Ximei, ran in. She came to play with Cheng Xinxin.

Cheng Xinxin replied softly in the yard, "I'm here."

Cheng Ximei ran in with her short legs, and the two little girls played together.

At this moment, Cheng Xinxin was helping her mother with cooking and picking sweet potato stems.It is the kind with sweet potato leaves and stalks. Sweet potato leaves can also be eaten in stir-fry. Stir-fried sweet potato stalks with green peppers also have a special taste.

Right now, Bai Qian was taking the skin off the stem, and she was sitting anyway.

This is a homely farm dish. Cheng He grows sweet potatoes himself. At this time, the vines grow very vigorously and will absorb most of the nutrients, which will affect the yield of sweet potatoes.

Therefore, sometimes it is necessary to knock off part of the branches to control its growth.Many plants have this need.

The felled vines used to be fed to pigs, and some of the more tender ones were used for cooking.

Originally, this dish was not very popular in the early years. Cheng He didn't like to eat it when he was a child, but in recent years, a trend of returning to nature has suddenly blown up, saying that eating this kind of sweet potato leaves is good for people , is a healthy vegetable, so this dish has quietly become popular again.

Especially in those farmhouses, tourists saw that the sweet potato leaves just picked from the ground were very fresh, and they all rushed to order these.

Cheng He knocked down so many vines of sweet potatoes, and originally wanted to chop them up to feed pigs and chickens, or let Jiujiu eat them. Bai Qian saw it, her eyes lit up, and she must get them to eat.

She thinks it is good to have a field at home. These things that were hard to eat in the past can now be eaten at hand, which is really a big surprise for her.

Now, she has become more and more familiar with the affairs of her own field, and she can also help with weeding, watering and so on.

Originally, there were not many fields, and there was not much work, so I would not be exhausted. It felt good to do it, especially watching the crops I cultivated grow slowly, and I felt quite a sense of accomplishment.

Sometimes waiting for a certain kind of melon or vegetable to mature is very exciting.

So, Bai Qian is now peeling the sweet potato stems.Such a boring Xi'er, she worked very hard, as if it was some kind of delicacy.

She was busy there, and Cheng Xinxin was also helping her.However, to say it was helping, it was just rambling and talking, and I could concentrate on doing it, but I didn't do it well.

Bai Qian doesn't care about her, she can do whatever she wants, anyway, there are so many, if it breaks, she will feed the pigs.

Cheng Ximei came, and seeing Cheng Xinxin making this, she said happily, "Xinxin, let me help you get an earring."

Cheng Xinxin asked her, "How do you do it?"

Cheng Jimei took out a sweet potato stalk and folded it with her hands.The skin of the sweet potato stalks is very tough and will not break, but the sweet potato stalks inside are very brittle and easy to break.

Moreover, the skin of the sweet potato stalks is red, but the stalks inside are green. It looks like a combination of red and green, which Cheng Xinxin likes very much.

After a while, Cheng Ximei fixed it and hung it on Cheng Xinxin's ear.

It was a little thing made by country children, and it was what girls used to play with when there were no toys.Now at Cheng Ximei's house, someone taught her to play this way, so she knows better than Cheng Xinxin.

Cheng He is a big bastard, he doesn't know these girls' things.

Cheng Xinxin got a new "earring", the excitement was beyond words, and she repeatedly urged Cheng Ximei: "It's still missing, it's still missing."

At this time, she has no idea about the value of toys. She also plays with her mother's earrings in her hands. No idea of ​​interest.

Of course, she doesn't cherish her mother's earrings much, and she doesn't know how much it costs to play with one.

Cheng Ximei immediately folded another earring for her and hung it on her other ear.Cheng Xinxin had long "new earrings" hanging on her two ears. She taught herself that she was much cuter. She shook her head and looked at the earrings as if she were looking at pearl earrings.

The sweet potato stalks are usually more than 20 centimeters long, and any one hung on Cheng Xinxin's chest, so she could see it when she lowered her head.

She said to Bai Qian as if offering a treasure: "Look, mom, these are my earrings, these are my earrings, don't they look good?"

Bai Qian was sitting on a small stool peeling sweet potato stalks. She didn't like the little girl's spooky appearance, so she smiled and said, "It's pretty, it's pretty."

Then he thought that being alone is not as good as having a lot of fun together, so he said, "Dad hasn't seen such a beautiful new earring, so why don't you show it to Dad?"

As soon as Cheng Xinxin was reminded, she immediately turned around and ran to Cheng He's side, shaking her ears and said, "Dad, is it good? Is it good?"

Cheng He was chatting with Liu Zhicheng and Lao Yang, and was amused by her, and said, "Well, it looks good, it looks good."

She is still so young, Cheng He didn't teach her the concept of what is valuable and what is not, just let her develop her mind.In a word, as long as she is happy.

Cheng Xinxin's sense of accomplishment!It's just overwhelmed.

In this period of time, Cheng Ximei made herself such a pair of "earrings", and hung them on her ears, flickering.

The two little girls looked at each other and smiled, both feeling that they were the most beautiful little princesses in the world.

Then, Cheng Xinxin learned from Cheng Ximei, and the two little guys played with sweet potato stems for a long time. Cheng Xinxin also made two earrings for her mother and two for her father, and hung them on his ears with her own hands. Say "it looks good".

In the end, even the big yellow dog's two ears were hung up.

Little things brought her great joy.

It's a pity that Jiujiu flew out to play, otherwise, she might have to get one for Jiujiu.

At dinner, Lao Liu, Lao Yang and Liu Zhicheng all ate together at Cheng He's house.After finally coming here, Cheng He will naturally invite them to eat a meal of farm food.

Bai Qian tasted the sweet potato stalks like a treasure from the mountains, and thought they were really delicious!
Cheng He said he was speechless. This is just the most common dish, and it is even used to feed pigs. He just added some chili and stir-fried it. Does she need it to be so delicious?

Not only Bai Qian, but also Lao Yang especially likes to eat this dish.He said that in the hard times before, he couldn't even eat this. In those years, if there was such a good food, many people would be starved to death.

Liu Zhicheng also thinks that these garden vegetables are very delicious and very comfortable to eat, and feels that the vegetables here are just extraordinary.

Obviously, they are some common vegetables, but when you eat them in your mouth, you can always feel the difference.Although this has something to do with the chef, it must also have something to do with the dishes.

Liu Zhicheng said: "Oh, you can't finish eating such a good dish, and you don't sell it. How many people can't enjoy this blessing."

With the quality of this dish, it is not an exaggeration to sell it at a high price. If it develops into an industry, it will be scary to death.

But Cheng He said that he didn't want to sell the vegetables he grew, and his family just ate them.

If it was at the beginning, when he became rich and had nowhere to go, he might have grown vegetables for a living, and then gradually expanded, but now he is not short of money, and this kind of land is purely for himself and his family, so he is naturally unwilling to spend extra money. mind.

Therefore, people like Liu Zhicheng only come here to eat when they want to eat, just to satisfy their appetite.

After dinner, it was still early, Cheng He sent this group of people back, and took a walk to digest food.

Bai Qian asked Cheng Xinxin, "Honey, did the sweet potato stems taste good just now?"

"Delicious." Cheng Xinxin nodded.

The dishes my father cooks are all delicious.

Now, Bai Qian has also learned how to fry a few vegetables. They can be cooked without being mushy, and the taste is not bad.For her, this is already a huge improvement.

Her daughter's taste is on the same front as hers, which made her feel very fulfilled, and said, "Then let's make this again tomorrow, shall we?"

"Okay." Cheng Xinxin replied in a childish voice.

Bai Qian immediately said to Cheng He: "Look, your daughter said that she will eat sweet potato stems tomorrow, what do you say?"

Cheng He smiled and shook his head: "What should I say? It's all there, as long as you can finish it. It's as if I won't let you eat it."

Bai Qian looked at his expression, and immediately asked, "Look at you, what's your expression? Are you laughing at me?"

"No."

"You just have."

"No……"

"Really, I can see it, huh!"

Talking and laughing all the way, inadvertently came to the ground.Cheng He glanced at his own, then at someone else's, and said, "Tomorrow I have to chop peanuts."
