Chapter 59
The woods were located by the river, and had been soaked in the water for a long time, and the trunk was grayish-white about a man high, with only a few sparse branches on the top. There are also many whole trees that are grayish-white, blistered and frosted, and have become a dead tree, and the branches can be broken at the slightest pull.
When Zhang Xing was picking up branches in the woods, he actually found a good thing - mushrooms, which are found on the trees and on the ground, perhaps because this year is a warm winter, there are many types of mushrooms in the woods. Zhang Xing recognized several of them as edible.
She was naturally happy in her heart, there were many mushrooms in the woods, and it seemed that no one had picked them yet, so she first took the branches and went to repair the fence of the vegetable garden, and repaired one side, and when she saw that the time was almost up, she took the basket and went to the woods to pick a small half basket of mushrooms.
When she went back, Ye Hexiang also came back, holding Zhang Jinbao and sitting at the door to play, the sun was setting, and she didn't seem to see the clothes in the yard. Seeing Zhang Xing come back with the basket, she frowned and said, "Dead girl, where have you gone?"
Zhang Xing didn't bother to pay attention to her, put down the basket, washed her hands, and collected all the things drying in the yard.
Ye Hexiang went to the kitchen and saw the mushrooms in the basket, she was startled, and she lifted the fall in front of Zhang Xing, "Xing'er, you picked this?"
"yes. Zhang Xing took the basket and began to clean up.
"You, what are you doing here? You can't eat it! If you eat it, you're going to die. Ye Hexiang said with wide eyes.
"Don't worry, you can't die. Zhang Xing said. She had been to the Academy of Agricultural Sciences before, and she knew that these kinds of food were often eaten.
Ye Hexiang reached out and grabbed the basket next to Zhang Xing, "No! Even if you can't eat the dead, you are not allowed to eat this! Aren't there still vegetables in the vegetable garden? You go and dig some." ”
"Mother!" Zhang Xing couldn't help but say loudly, "There are still a few vegetables in the vegetable garden? It's about to be the New Year, you eat it now, and the big guys will go to eat the northwest wind during the New Year." ”
"You, how do you know how many dishes there are in the vegetable garden?" Ye Hexiang asked.
Zhang Xing opened Ye Hexiang, "How do I know about Lu Dao?" Naturally, I have been to see it. Mother, didn't you go to repair the fence? Why didn't I see you? There are so many turnips and cabbages in other people's vegetable gardens, and you don't look at our vegetable gardens. ”
Ye Hexiang was speechless for a while, ashamed for a while, stretched out her hand and tapped Zhang Xing's forehead fiercely, gritted her teeth and said, "Dead girl, I actually took care of your mother's affairs, and turned the sky upside down." ”
While the two were talking, Wei Yunhai came back, he came from the vegetable garden, and when he heard Zhang Xing's words again, his face was a little unpleasant.
Ye Hexiang's eyesight was excellent, and when she saw Wei Yunhai coming back, the smile on her face suddenly piled up, "Brother Wei, are you back, are you tired? Sit down first, I'll pour you a cup of hot water." ”
Wei Yunhai nodded, sat down on the bench, and watched Zhang Xing clean up the mushrooms without blinking. Zhang Xing stood up and said, "Uncle Wei, I can eat all of these picks." ”
Ye Hexiang came out with a bowl of hot water, listened to Zhang Xing's words, and complained: "Dead girl, how do you know if you can eat it?"
Wei Yunhai stopped Ye Hexiang and said, "Xing'er is right, some of this thatched house is indeed edible. ”
"But how did I hear that someone lost their lives after eating this thing?" Ye Hexiang said in surprise.
Wei Yunhai nodded, "There are many kinds of thatched houses, and some of them are poisonous, so naturally they can't be eaten. If you don't know it, you won't dare to eat it. Apricot, can you tell the difference?"
Ye Hexiang also looked at Zhang Xing curiously. She doesn't even know this mother, this girl, who taught her this?
Zhang Xing nodded and said, "Uncle Wei, I can tell the difference." Then he turned to Ye Hexiang and said, "These are what Grandma Li taught me, and when we fled, we often ate this thing." ”
Ye Hexiang was speechless. She knew that Zhang Xing was Li Hong, the mother of Li Dazhu in Lizhuang Village, that old woman was a fine person, and everyone in the village was unconvinced when she spoke and did things, but she was a little afraid when she saw it.
"It's good to divide it clearly, let's eat this today. Wei Yunhai drank the water, stood up and said, "I still have some things, the meal is ready, you eat first, don't wait for me." ”
After Wei Yunhai finished speaking, he went out, Ye Hexiang and Zhang Xing began to choose vegetables and wash the pot, Ye Hexiang helped add a few firewood, and said that he flashed his waist and wanted to lie down on the bed. Zhang Xing just didn't hear it, skimmed the mushrooms, picked a plate of cabbage cores, cut the radish into thin strips, cut a piece of bacon into the pot, and mixed it together to stew a large miscellaneous pot.
Before it was time to eat, Wei Minwen and Wei Minwu came back, and the two brothers were taken aback when they saw that their room had changed greatly, and they ran to the main room and yelled at Ye Hexiang: "Who asked you to touch the things in my room?"
Ye Hexiang couldn't figure it out, "Who touches the things in your room?" Ah, I'm so busy all day and night that I'm going to die, who has the spare time to move the things in your house?"
Wei Minwu still had a strong neck, Wei Minwen quickly pulled him out, pointed to the kitchen, and whispered: "That girl must have moved! Let's see if there is anything missing?"
He reminded Wei Minwu in one sentence, and the two brothers hurriedly rummaged in their own house, and found that there were a lot of things, that is, they were neatly arranged, clean and clean, and they smelled a warm smell that penetrated into the spleen.
Wei Minwu looked at Wei Minwen and whispered, "Brother, what does this girl want to do?"
Wei Minwen pursed his lips with a deep expression and shook his head.
But the two of them didn't dwell on this issue for too long, because the kitchen was so fragrant. The two of them ran to the kitchen and saw a large basin in the center of the table, which was red, white, and green, and the fragrance was overflowing, which made the mouth water.
The two brothers hurriedly grabbed the table, but they heard a knocking on the basin, and a voice said lightly: "Wash your hands, wash the table, don't move if you don't wash it." ”
Wei Minwen's gaze was withdrawn from Zhang Xing, who was squatting in front of the stove, and his brother next to him had already run to the shelf to wash his hands.
Ye Hexiang also came with Zhang Jinbao, and Zhang Jinbao didn't wait for Ye Hexiang to carry him to the table, so he climbed straight to the stool. Wei Minwen Wei Minwu hurriedly wiped his hands, filled a big bowl of brown rice with one person, and grabbed a good position to start.
The two of them don't care if it's poisonous or not, whether they can eat it or not, what they have in the chopsticks, they just think that their hands are not fast enough, and their mouths are too late.
Ye Hexiang still had some worries in her heart, anyway, Wei Yunhai, who spoke, she didn't remind the two annoying boys of the Wei family, and only picked bacon, radish and cabbage for Zhang Jinbao and herself to eat - she didn't want to think about it, just such a pot, if the mushrooms were poisonous, would the others be spared?
As the saying goes, half the size eats the poor. If Zhang Xing hadn't seen that the situation was wrong, she secretly left a big bowl of rice, and it is estimated that there would be nothing on the table. It's just that there is no food, and the two boys don't want to leave, and they are still picking and choosing in the cauldron, and they don't like it.
Wei Yunhai came back with a cloth bag. When Wei Minwu saw that Zhang Xing actually brought out a bowl of rice, his eyes were straight, he licked his mouth, and asked, "Is there anything else?"
"It's gone. Zhang Xing said.
Wei Yunhai got on the table, frowned and said to his son, "You two will go to the side after eating, don't pick and choose in the pot." "Pick and choose, and he has nothing.
Wei Minwen Wei Minwu threw away his chopsticks and went back to his room. Wei Yunhai took out a cloth bag from his arms and put it on the table, and said: "This is the money that I borrowed from Guan Cunzheng, let's go to the town tomorrow, it's almost the New Year, we have to add something to the child." The matter of Xing'er's household registration should also be done quickly, and when the New Year begins, who knows what the wind direction will be. "Although the flood has retreated early, but now many things are still chaotic, especially the population, I don't know where to go is too much, at this time the household registration is the most suitable, and so on, there is idle work on the top, it should be settled, this thing is not easy to do.
Ye Hexiang didn't care if the money was borrowed or not, when she saw the money, her eyes lit up, and she hurriedly returned Zhang Jinbao to Zhang Xing, and counted the money with a smile. Zhang Xing opened the large cloth bag that Wei Yunhai carried back, and saw that there was grain in it, as well as two small packages.
Wei Yunhai said: "This is what I asked Dongzi's family to get some cabbage seeds, our vegetable garden can't eat for a few days, and now the planting is a little late, but it is better than nothing." ”
