When I returned home from the mountain, it was already past two o'clock as Zhou Shujie estimated.

Separated from the sisters-in-law and entered the gate.

Through the window, she heard the child calling her.

"Mother, mother, mother"

"Mother, mother, mother, mother,"

Zhou Shujie hurriedly responded with a smile: "Hey! Niang heard it, wait! Niang will enter the house immediately." ”

She took off the heavy basket on her shoulders and placed it in the shadow of the doorway.

He moved his shoulders, took the jar of wild fruit in his hand, and walked into the house.

Not to mention, when I took off the basket, I felt a lot lighter, and I walked like I was on the clouds.

As soon as I opened the door, I saw two children climbing up the edge of the kang through the window.

While crawling, he was still shouting at his mother.

The two children were so happy to see her that they climbed on top of her.

Climbed on top of her, and jumped on the two granaries on her chest.

Look at their monkey urgency!

Zhou Shujie smiled and patted their butts twice. "Do you want to be a mother, or do you want to be milked?"

To say that Zhou Shujie's milk is really not much left now, just this little day I just feel a little up.

I wiped it with a clean towel and gave each of the two children a side of milk.

Now her little milk is not full for them at all.

Looking at the two children as if they hadn't eaten enough!

Zhou Shujie hurriedly went to the outhouse, picked up the cans and bottles placed on the pot table, and went into the house to show the two children.

Holding the bottle, he shook it at the two children and said, "Look at what this is, the wild fruit that my mother picked for you, do you want to eat it?"

"Think"

"Eat"

"If you want to eat, just sit and wait, and my mother will mix some sugar for you. ”

As he spoke, he got up again and went to the outhouse, opened the bowl shelf, took out a bowl, scooped a spoonful of sugar, poured half a bowl of wild fruit and stirred it.

After thinking about it, he took out another bowl and mixed half a bowl for his mother-in-law.

He took two bowls and went into the house, and gave the bowl to his mother-in-law. said: "Mother, you taste this, see if it is sour, if it is sour, put some sugar." ”

The mother-in-law took it and took a bite, nodded and smiled and said, "It's good, it's just right to eat sweet and sour, um! It tastes good!"

The mother-in-law took two bites, looked at Zhou Shujie smiling and feeding the child, and asked, "How about going up the mountain today?

Zhou Shujie replied with a smile while preventing the child from getting the fruit into his clothes: "Hahaha! Mother, there are very few wolves on the mountain now, unlike you who used to touch wolves when you went up the mountain, I haven't heard of anyone touching them for several years." After a pause, he replied. "The bracken is okay, it's very easy to pick, I just picked a flat basket and ignored it, I can't carry it back if there are too many!

As soon as the mother-in-law heard that she had only come back to eat bracken, she put down the bowl and went outside to look at it.

After watching it, I said to Zhou Shujie: "Let's fry some at night, it looks very fresh." ”

Zhou Shujie nodded and said, "Okay, I'll copy some later, let's fry and eat it at night, and the rest is dried or salty, which one do you think?"

The mother-in-law thought for a moment, "Let's dry bracken! Use it to stew chicken in winter." ”

"Well, let's save some for stir-frying, and the rest is copied and dried. Mother, you can help me watch the child again, I'll go out and clean up the bracken. With that, he took the empty bowl and walked out.

Looking at the daughter-in-law who was about to walk to the door, the mother-in-law suddenly remembered something and called her: "Hey, yes, Shujie, your second brother is here today, and he said that he wants you to go to the meadow to walk wild duck eggs." I said you went up the mountain, and he said he would come to you tomorrow morning to walk the duck eggs. ”

"Okay, I see"

Hearing this, Zhou Shujie was happy, this was her favorite thing to do when she was a child.

Really, I haven't done it in years, I'll do it again tomorrow.

Zhou Shujie hummed a song in a beautiful mood.

Take out all the bracken you have picked back, put it on the sack on the ground, squat down one by one, and cut off the roots with a kitchen knife an inch long, if such roots are not cut off and dried in the sun, it will become old roots, and eating them will be as bad as firewood.

After cutting, go into the house and set fire to boil water.

When the water boiled, he first copied out the food to be eaten at night, put it in a basin, and soaked it in cold water. You have to soak for a while, the time to soak is too short, and it may be bitter to eat.

The rest of the bracken was copied in three pots, then taken out and passed through cold water and hung on the large bamboo curtain used to dry the vegetables.

I removed the dirty water from the pot, brushed it clean, put clean water in it, washed two bowls of rice, and sat on the pot in an iron basin.

Let's steam a pot of rice tonight, and of course, don't forget to steam chicken cakes for the two children.

Put the rice in the pot, and put wood on the bottom of the pot, so you don't have to squat there and watch the fire.

Zhou Shujie came to the hand and cut the bracken that had been soaked for a while into an inch-long section with a knife and put it in a basin on the side. Just wait for a while to argue.

I went to the meat jar again and looked at it, trying to see if I could find a piece of meat.

It is best to fry these wild vegetables with meat oil or pork, otherwise the oil will not be so delicious.

Not to mention, she really found a piece of pork belly in the meat oil jar.

I took the meat oil on it and cut it into thin slices on the cutting board.

This pork belly is marinated quite well, the outside is sauce red, and the inside is really white.

After the rice is steamed, brush the pot and pour the oil and green onion to stir-fry until fragrant, put the meat and stir-fry, pour the bracken, fry it twice, put a little salt, and wait for the salt grains to melt and then serve it.

At first glance, it looks good, but I don't know how it tastes?

After serving the first bite of the table, the mother-in-law nodded and said, "It's delicious, it's slippery and fragrant." ”

"Is it delicious? I'll taste it!" he added a piece and put it in his mouth and chewed carefully.

Zhou Shujie felt that the taste was very good.

After that, the two didn't speak.

I just ate it, and I didn't eat more than half of the two bowls of rice, and I also ate the top plate of dishes.

When they finished eating, the chicken cake was cold.

Picking up the bowl, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law began to feed the child.

Looking at the two children, they were smacking and eating sweetly.

The two of them couldn't help but be happy.

Before going to bed at night, Zhou Shujie deliberately boiled some hot water to scald her feet.

Walking down the mountain road on this day, she felt that although there were no blisters on her feet, it was also a pain from Huo Liaoliao.

Maybe it's also tired from going up the mountain, and it didn't take two minutes to lie there!

Zhou Shujie fell asleep, and the candles were blown out by her mother-in-law.

She had no dreams all night and slept very sweetly.

But I didn't know that not far from home, there was a person who couldn't sleep.

…………

It's the depths of Changbai Mountain again, and it's the camp last year.

This year, a lot of recruits came, and the instructors were still Zhu Zi and his comrade-in-arms Li Dayou.

This is also a secret base, and they can't let outsiders know about it, and the people inside can't ask for leave to go home.

In fact, when the pillar came back from the battlefield, he wanted to go home and have a look.

Unexpectedly, halfway through, I took this task and turned around here.

I couldn't sleep at night and sat in the tree behind the barracks, looking at the moon in the sky and counting the days.

Now the two children should be almost one year old, right?

Seriously, he really doesn't know his daughter-in-law that well.

Although he lives in a village, Zhu is four or five years older than Zhou Shujie.

When I was a kid, we couldn't play together at all, and we never played together.

When he was older, he went out to serve as a soldier, and the people in the village he knew best were the three sons of Uncle Guo's family next door, and the others were not very familiar.

His deepest impression of his daughter-in-law is the month they got along when they got married.

Just finished out that the daughter-in-law doesn't seem to be too talkative.

The marriage leave granted by the army is on the end of the day.

He returned to the troops.

From the correspondence during this period of time, he felt that although his daughter-in-law was a man of few words, she was sensible, at least not as unreasonable as his comrades-in-arms.

Actually, to be honest, he's a little homesick!

I want to go home and see my mother!

I want to see my daughter-in-law, and I want to see my two children!

sighed, thinking to himself, it's useless to think about this, hurry up and finish this training task, and go home on vacation.

Jumped down from the tree, clapped his hands, and walked to his barracks......
