Nowadays, the triplets are responsible for the insects eaten by the chickens, the earthworms eaten by the ducks, and the cowgrass eaten by the cows.

In the course of the day, an hour in the morning and an hour in the afternoon are the working hours of the triplets.

As the old man said, it is one thing to have no shortage of them to do this little work, but it will be another thing. Only by constantly striving to become strong can people become useful to society and the country in the future.

The rest of the time, whether to follow the old man and practice boxing, or sit next to Yingfang in a row to read and write.

Of course, it's natural to like to play at this age, make an appointment with a partner, make an appointment, and pay attention to safety, Yingfang almost never objected.

It's just that what makes people laugh and cry is that after the second dog, Yangyang is said to have become the head of the preschool dolls in the village. Nuan Nuan and Yan Yan are also very popular with friends of the same age. Every time I go out to play or play together, I hug each other. Tut!

Stay in the bamboo forest for more than half an hour. A lot of people is a lot of power, and lo and behold! After such a while, the bamboo shoots dug up are piled up on the ground. At least two large bamboo baskets.

Ying Fang took six or seven plants and put them in the back basket, peeled one to cook soup during the picnic, peeled off the shell of the other, and left a few tender shells to make roasted bamboo shoots. The rest asked Xiao Li to go to Qunying Village to inform him, and let the village send two orderlies to move away.

Not only bamboo shoots, but others like mushrooms, tree ears, wild vegetables, etc., often do this when they dig too much, so both Xiao Li and Qunyingzhai are very familiar with them, and they thanked them with a grin, and moved back to the barracks.

After four years of expansion, today's Qunying Village is no longer the poor and sour of four years ago, not only the establishment has expanded to 350 people, but the territory has expanded and expanded.

Nowadays, the east mountainside of this mountain, to the west col of the adjacent mountain, have become the territory of the Qunying Village, the training ground at the bottom of the valley, and the terraces on the mountainside are all well maintained.

Widow Li has stopped running up the mountain since October last year, and Qunyingzhai has recruited a lot of people in recent years, including a leader soldier who specializes in cooking, and a veteran who retired due to injury and illness when he reclaimed the terraces.

She is a female streamer, and it would be good to be able to help in the early stage of the construction of Qunying Village, but it is not a long-term solution.

However, the people returned to the commune, but they still kept in touch with the warriors of Qunyingzhai.

When they are free, like Yingfang, they often send them some dried vegetables and bamboo shoots that they have dried themselves, and on festivals such as Mid-Autumn Festival and Chinese New Year's Eve, they will also send some mooncakes and dumplings to the soldiers left behind.

In the same way, when the soldiers are on vacation, they will also go down the mountain to help do what they can. For example, he went to Yingfang's house to do some dirty and tiring labor, such as helping Widow Li's family renovate the roof, strengthen the courtyard wall, and fill the water tank......

Yingfang's family can't feel anything, but Widow Li is different, her orphans and widows have no men, and now they have the People's Liberation Army to rely on, how dare they say anything to the neighbors who used to love to bully their mothers. lest he offend the soldiers and be arrested and criticized.

Gradually, Widow Li is no longer so introverted and restrained, and when she is not at work, she will not hide at home all day long, sometimes going to the mountains to rake wild vegetables and picking mushrooms, and sometimes carrying a bamboo basket to Yingfang's house to sew insoles and make sweaters.

Cangzhu learns well, is well-behaved, and everything is developing in a good direction.

"If there is a man in the family to rely on, wouldn't it be more comfortable to have a small life?" Seeing the orderly carrying the spring bamboo shoots back to the village with a woven bag, Jiang Xinrou sighed smoothly, "What do you say your sister-in-law Li thinks?"

Ying Fang knew what her mother was feeling, it wasn't that one of the retired soldiers had a good impression of Widow Li, last year's birthday in Laba, he drank a few more glasses carelessly, leaking his feelings, and a circle of comrades-in-arms on the side wanted to match them after learning his thoughts, but they scared people away.

However, this kind of thing, no matter how optimistic outsiders are, the key is that both parties are willing to do so.

"Mother, come and see, we've dug up so many wild vegetables!" Nuan Nuan held the small shovel and ran to pull Yingfang with a red face.

"Yes, Mom, look, yes! I really dug so much! None of them are weeds, they are all edible wild vegetables, and the baby eggs are really capable!" Ying Fang gave the triplets a thumbs up.

When the triplets were praised, they immediately blossomed, chattering about how much they had dug up, and if it weren't for the wild vegetables piled up together, they would still want to be ranked first and second.

Ying Fang was afraid that they would quarrel too much, so she hurriedly squatted down to reassure: "Okay, it's not early, we still have to go to see Lao Jin, we have to hurry up." We will bring these dishes and make them for grandpa to eat later. This is all the credit of the baby eggs, or the baby eggs are thoughtful, otherwise we would have no food to eat except bamboo shoots at noon. ”

As soon as I heard that my credit was so great, the triplets all held up their small chests, took bamboo baskets and loaded wild vegetables, and then you carried a section of the road, and I carried a section of the road to the destination. The adults wanted to help mention a paragraph and didn't let it, so they had to do it themselves.

This is the best effect of Shun Maokua.

Yingfang deeply feels that coaxing babies is really a technical job - it is not good to coax too much, it is easy to be coquettish and domineering, and it is not good to coax them, it is easy to discourage their enthusiasm.

At the moment, it seems that his baby coaxing skills are okay, and he can turn around and scream at men again.

However, when she walked to the back, the triplets were obviously not physically strong, and Nuan Nuan was the first to surrender and consciously climbed on Xiao Li's back.

Yang Yang and Yan Yan boasted that boys were better than girls, and they insisted on it for a while, until they couldn't walk, so they stopped and rested for half an hour.

Of course, at the same time, it is also sympathetic to the old man. Although he is as tough as his brothers, he does not say that he is not tired.

Okay, okay, you're not tired, it's our women comrades who are tired.

In the second half of the walk, I took a break, and when I arrived at the destination, it was past lunch.

The triplets shouted that they were hungry, and Yingfang hurriedly took out the steamed mushroom and green vegetable buns in the morning to cushion their stomachs.

"After a while, the soup of spring bamboo shoots and wild vegetable gnocchi is cooked, and you can drink a little more, and it will have the fruits of your labor. ”

In order to avoid picky eaters for children, Yingfang mentioned the credit for wild vegetables again. Yang Yang straightened his head and immediately continued: "I want to drink, I want to drink! Grandpa said that the fruits of his labor are the sweetest." ”

Yan Yan rolled his eyes on the side: Brother, you are our mother again. Mom just wanted to trick us into drinking wild vegetable soup.

Nuan Nuan was worried about Lao Jin, and delicately bit the bun and urged: "Mother, when are we going to see Lao Jin?" Grandma said that the cooked vegetables are easy to spoil, and I am afraid that the big bones will be rancid. ”

She stared at Sister-in-law Fu yesterday to make big bone broth, and she was stunned to pick out the big bones and pack them separately, saying that she would bring them to Lao Jin to eat.

Everyone politely persuaded Lao Jin that he couldn't eat bones, she nodded ignorantly, but she still wanted to bring it.

"Uncle Xiao Li will take you over to play first, and after a while, Uncle Xiao Li will call you to gather for dinner, but you are not allowed to be disobedient. After eating, let's go over together. ”

"Good. ”

The three little ones spoke in unison, and then followed Xiao Li through the narrow cliff gap.

The little animals in the beautiful valley have known their family for a long time, and they may not smell the danger from their house, and they will gather around to beg for food every time they go.

Later, Xiang Gang simply built a simple shed in the valley and cut down a few tree stumps to use as benches.

When the sun is shining, you can sit in the shed and rest.

A solid barbecue grill was built in the open space in front of the shed, the kind that the wind could not blow away and the heavy rain could not wash away.

With this barbecue grill, you only need to pick up some firewood to make a fire, and then clean up the game hands brought by King Jin and Uncle Meow, smear it on seasoning skewers and roast it on the rack. The province has to be rebuilt every time I come.

The golden retriever found a daughter-in-law and gave birth to a litter of little golden retrievers, and completely settled in the beautiful valley. Counting the time, I haven't gone down the mountain for three years in a row. This little conscienceless person either accompanies his daughter-in-law to find fruits, or catches lice for the little hairy monkey, and his small life is quite fulfilling.

Xiao Jin and Kumquat are not qualitative, they are still in the valley today, and Ming'er may have run to the other side of Yanqi Mountain.

Of course, I often go down the mountain to see Yingfang's family.

Every time I go back, I will throw wild game into the yard of Yingfang's house, not only to give them food, but also to roast them for them to eat.

On one occasion, it was actually a snake, a small python with the thickness of an adult's arm and more than two meters long.

That scared Yingfang that time.

Fortunately, the sky has just dawned, and the triplets have not yet gotten up, otherwise the children would have been scared to cry.

Afterwards, I saw an old ginseng that Xiao Jin left her for hundreds of years, maybe hundreds of years, in the cellar, and pondered it in combination with the context: this little python is eighty percent guarding this wild ginseng, but unfortunately, he ran into the sweeping Jin and Meow duo, and he still wanted to resist stubbornly, and didn't want to kill himself.

Yingfang, such a precious old ginseng, was reluctant to use it, so after concocting it, she took the red silk wrap and put it in the mahogany box that Chen Xuya gave her.

Hundreds of years of authentic wild ginseng, that really deserves the reputation of "natural treasure". Cutting the roots and mustaches casually can hang people's lives at critical moments.

It's not the first time for everyone to come here for a picnic, they are very familiar with the way, and they start to divide and cooperate as soon as they arrive.

The old man sat on the old tree stump not far away, leaning on his cane and enjoying the scenery.

Sister-in-law Fu set up a stone stove to make a fire, and Yingfang was responsible for washing vegetables and peeling bamboo shoots.

The water was brought from the brook.

There is an old bucket in the wooden house, and the creek is not far from here, and the spring water is gurgling, and the water is quite clean.

As soon as Jiang Xinrou arrived, she began to clean up the three wooden houses.

Each room has a hollow collapse, two meters wide and two meters long, and it is no problem to sleep three people on one collapse.

The bedding and blankets are all stored under the collapse, because the wooden house is not built on the ground, but like the stilted building of ethnic minorities, but the hanging is not high, and it is a foot long from the ground, but in this way, the moisture is not so heavy.

Jiang Xinrou took out the bedding, blanket, and buckwheat pillow stuffed under the collapse, stretched out the bamboo ladder, climbed up and down a few times, and finally flattened all the bedding on the roof.

The forest is quite open, and the wooden houses are built right in the middle, and the midday sun is not obstructed. It won't take long to dry the moisture from the futon.

"Let's eat a little more at noon, get it early for dinner, let the fat orange catch a pheasant and come back, let's make a flower chicken to eat." Simmer another pot of rice porridge and roast a few tender corns. ”

Yingfang washed the wild vegetables, put them on a clean stone and drained them, and got up to take out a few fresh corn cobs from the bamboo basket.

This is the first crop of corn picked by her family's own land, and the corn whiskers are still light-colored, and they can be eaten after a little roasting. When roasting, leave a layer of tender leaves, so that the umami of the corn is not easy to lose, and the taste is better.

The more she talked, the more greedy she became, Yingfang simply peeled a few, boiled a pot first, and the tender corn could be eaten raw, so the boiling was also very fast, and you could pick it up and eat it after boiling water for a while. It's just a little hot, she poked one with chopsticks, handed it to the old man, and asked the old man to pad his stomach first.

left one for Xiao Li and the triplets, and the rest of her ate with her mother and sister-in-law.

When eating corn, cook wild vegetable gnocchi by the way.

The forest was quiet, except for the sound of a few of them gnawing corn, and the sound of boiling soup in the pot.

Therefore, when there was a rustling noise in the bushes, the big guys heard it, and the old man jokingly guessed, "It can't be a hare, right? ”

After saying that, the movement was gone.

Everyone smiled and continued to eat corn.

Suddenly, the lid of the pot where the corn was placed clanged, and the cooked tender corn on the lid of the pot rolled down and ran away as if it had grown legs.

Ran away...... Ran away......

Ying Fang was so shocked that her jaw almost fell to the ground.

"Yo, what a big squirrel!" Sister-in-law Fu exclaimed.

Only then did everyone see that it was a red-haired squirrel, carrying a large leaf as a cover, following the fragrance to feed.

"It's a little bit, it's quite clever. Jiang Xinrou smiled and slapped her leg.

"Squeak, squeak. When the red-haired squirrel saw that the humans had spotted her, he threw away the leaves, hugged the cob, and flashed behind the bushes.

The triplets came back and heard that some squirrels liked to eat corn, so they took their own corn cob and went around looking for squirrels to feed.

"Mother!

"Mom! Mom!"

In a few moments, three corn cobs were exchanged for three handfuls of plump pine nuts.

The triplets and the lone red-haired squirrel have become good friends who transcend race. He also gave it the name "Red Tiger" by himself.

The name was met with strong opposition from kumquats.

"Meow !!"

What a tiger is the old man!

It is a bald mouse, even a cat can't beat it, and it wants to be called a "tiger".

Protest, protest, protest!!

It's a pity that the tumbling uncle meow can't speak any other language except "meow meow".

The triplets watched it jump up and down, thinking it was performing some kind of show, and laughed while peeling pine nuts.

Kumquat: I'm so angry! Lao Tzu is angry and angry, and you are still laughing so happily!) ）

The newly baked little friend "Red Tiger" squatted obediently at Yan Yan's feet, and from time to time probed to eat a tender corn that Yan Yan peeled for it.

Yingfang's family also discovered that the squirrel seemed to be particularly fond of tender corn, preferring to exchange the pine nuts it had hidden in the hollow of the tree.

It's a real rarity.

However, the small animals in her house are not normal, such as snakes that love barbecue, cats that like malt cream, and dogs who like sweet soup...... Well, the monkeys are quite normal. The new squirrel is a maverick again.

"Yo-"

Oh, and a herd of deer who like to eat roasted grass, and a big old turtle who has fallen in love with bitter herbs.

Yingfang helped her forehead, what is going on!

Her house isn't really going to be a zoo, is it?
