Chapter 22 Wild Herbs for Herbs

It's so dangerous, fortunately she appeared, otherwise Jinyu would have found it!

Picking a few dried lotus leaves from the lotus pond, Jinxiu walked towards the direction of Jinyu.

"Sister, the rain is getting heavier and heavier, let's go home!"

Jinyu is a fast hand, and she doesn't know how she did it, so she dug up a basket of wild vegetables after a while.

The sisters returned to the courtyard of the Feng family, and came up to clean the wild vegetables by digging well water, and Feng Taohua stood under the eaves and sneered:

"Are you pigs? Eat this kind of thing! ”

Jinyu replied to her: "We don't have a vegetable garden to grow vegetables, why don't we eat this?" In March and April, when there are no vegetables in the vegetable garden, don't you have to eat them? ”

Feng Taohua said, "When did you see me eat this kind of wild vegetable?" ”

Jinyu was silent, and Jinxiu said: "Yes, you don't eat wild vegetables, you eat grass!" If you don't make a pig, you can be a cow, anyway, it's all livestock, the same! ”

Feng Taohua was furious and screamed: "Mother, come on!" ”

It was Old Man Feng who came out of the house, and shouted at Feng Taohua: "If you have time to talk nonsense with this nonsense, why don't you dig pig vegetables?" Two pigs are not tended to, see how thin they are? Do you know that your mother is distressed and sick? ”

Feng Taohua shrank her head and was silent.

Old Man Feng said to Jinxiu and Jinyu: "Give this basket of vegetables to your third aunt, let her chop and cook it and feed it to the pigs." You guys, go to the back vegetable garden, and cut whatever you want to eat! ”

Waiting for Old Man Feng to walk away, Jinxiu smiled at Feng Taohua and said, "Oh, tell you to talk more!" This time, it's hard for you to be a pig if you don't want to be a pig - you have to go into the pigsty today! ”

Feng Taohua was so angry that she jumped to scratch her hands and screamed.

Jinxiu dumped the wild vegetables at the well, carried the basket and pulled Jinyu and went straight to the back vegetable garden unceremoniously - those vegetables were planted by Jinyu Jinyun, don't be in vain! Moreover, a basket of wild vegetables was used in exchange!

In the garden, the sisters plucked three turnips, two weadows, five or six large mustard leaves, pinched a handful of tender chrysanthemums, and dug up two large pieces of ginger.

Walking back to the well to wash vegetables, under the pressure of Old Man Feng, Feng Taohua cried and picked up wild vegetables to feed the pigs, Feng Liang stood under the eaves and saw it, and shouted sharply:

"Why do you pick so much?"

Jinxiu said: "I want to eat that basket of wild vegetables for three days, and these vegetables are only enough for us to eat three meals!" ”

"Fuck you! With so many dishes, you only eat three meals? ”

Jinxiu said: "The stepmother is also a mother, you are the mother of Xiucai, please speak elegantly!" Save people from looking down on your talent! ”

Feng Liang choked with anger and said, "What do you want those two pieces of ginger for?" ”

"I bought a few pork bones beforehand, and tomorrow I will prepare a stew of big bone radish soup, and I have to put some ginger in it!"

"What do you want chrysanthemum to do? Fuel and salt consumption! ”

"There is a lot of oil in the big bone broth, and when the time comes, we will scoop out the oil soup to scald this chrysanthemum vegetable, which is delicious!"

Feng Liangshi: "......"

I feel that my saliva is about to drip down: "Stew the big bone broth tomorrow, and divide a big pot to give it to your grandfather!" ”

Jinxiu replied: "This, I am a child who can't be the master, look at my mother!" ”

Jinxiu knew very well in her heart that living in this courtyard, it was not possible to go out without ordering delicious food, and even every time Tian fried fat pork, Feng Liang would take two bowls to scoop away a bowl of oil and a bowl of oil residue, so she was too lazy to say anything.

Only by moving out of here can you be completely quiet.

Back at the thatched house, Tian and Jinyun were also very happy to see the sisters exchanging wild vegetables for wead.

The women who visited the door had already gone home separately, and the new clothes of the mother and daughter made them sew, and Jinyun's set could be put on, which was very suitable!

Tian said with a smile: "The eldest sister knew how to read when she was a child, and she could memorize it by listening and reading twice, which would just be to see your Aunt Liu cut clothes for others, and she could cut them herself, Aunt Liu said that she cut better than her, and she was dressed well, and said that in the future, the big girls will find you to cut their clothes!" ”

Jinxiu agreed, while fiddling with Jinyun's new clothes, he said with a smile: "I will wear it in the future, I can also wear it for work, this linen cloth is originally worn for work!" ”

Tian said angrily: "How can you teach your sister like this? You have to save clothes, and you have to wear old clothes for work! ”

"Mother, those old clothes are mending up, I'm impatient to wear them, and my sister doesn't wear them either! For more than a hundred dollars, we can make a sackcloth coat, and we can afford to wear it! We'll have a lot of new clothes to wear in the future! ”

Tian sighed: "You kid! ”

Jinyun jumped on the kang and said, "That's it!" I don't take off my new clothes, I'll wear new ones in the future! ”

Jinyu also pursed her lips and smiled.

Jinxiu asked Tian again: "Mother, what are Aunt Huang Po Zhou and Aunt Liu talking to you about?" ”

"What can you say? There are all kinds of family affairs in Duli Village, and I haven't been out for a long time, so I just listen to the freshness! ”

Tian wrapped around the thread ball in her hand, and the twine that Jinxiu and Jinyu bought back to sew clothes were wrapped in a pile, and she couldn't figure it out for a long time: "Aunt Zhou and Huang Po also asked your sisters what good things they got when they went to the mountain a few days ago, and they went to the market when they saw the sky!" ”

"What do you say, mother?"

"I'll just say it, you followed Dongmei Shui Ling and their group, and picked a lot of good things, including walnuts and chestnuts, as well as matsutake monkey heads, you got two branches of ginseng before and after, plus others, sold for twenty or thirty taels of silver, all said!"

Jinxiu nodded: "Well said!" When Huang Po and Aunt Zhou spread the word, let the family know that we have silver, buy land and build a new house, others can only blush and say nothing, and grandpa and grandma don't have to bother to speak! ”

Jinyu and Jinyun were a little worried: "Sister, are you afraid that grandma will come to rob you?" ”

Jinxiu smiled: "If they can grab the silver I hid, then their ability is too great!" ”

Tian said: "Don't be careless, are you really hiding?" ”

"Don't worry, mother, fifty taels of silver have been exchanged for silver tickets, and I have hidden the remaining broken silver and copper coins well, and you can't find them!"

"That's good!"

Tian sighed again: "No wonder the Yang family was able to build four large courtyards of red brick and blue tile houses for their four sons, and also bought seventy or eighty acres of land, his family is capable!" Yang Dongmei's good boy may not have saved much dowry! It's also a shame that she is about to get married, and she has a good relationship in the same village, and she will take you into the mountains in the autumn of these two years, otherwise, you will not be able to find this silver! ”

Jinyu pouted: "Sister Dong also followed Sister Dong for a few days last autumn, and all the good things she brought back were handed over to the milk, and they were sold for money, and we didn't see any of them!" ”

Tian said sadly: "At that time, we were not ...... Do they have to be in charge? It's good now! My mother really regretted it, she should have listened to your aunt and taken you out of this home! ”

Jinxiu comforted her: "At that time, we were still young, and my mother had just given birth to Jinyun, so naturally we didn't dare to act rashly, and now we can leave the Feng family, which is already very good!" ”

Tian wiped her eyes, nodded, and turned back to the topic she wanted to say: "I asked Aunt Zhou just now, Sister Dong's wedding date is in May next year, your sisters will add up to see what kind of congratulatory gift you give her, it has to be more expensive!" ”

Jinxiu promised: "Well, let's look at it, naturally we want to give a good gift!" ”
