The next day, Wu Lifang said that she rarely went home and wanted to spend more time with her mother-in-law, anyway, in winter, the eldest sister would deliver food to her restaurant, and the sisters would inevitably get together.

Ge Tianling naturally followed his daughter-in-law.

Ge Kaixi wanted to practice embroidery, Ge Kaizhen wanted to practice medicine, and the sisters did not follow Wu Licui's house.

Ge Tianyu was relieved that Ge Kaiwu was not at home alone, and returned to the town, only Wu Limei took Ge Kailin to follow Wu Licui home.

Wu Licui asked the three sisters Wu Yinrong if they wanted to play.

Wu Yinrong was very polite, saying that the aunt was busy with the farmer, and it was not good for too many people to disturb him.

Wu Yinhua refused very simply, afraid of tanning and becoming ugly.

Wu Yinwei was even more straightforward, just one word: "Go." ”

packed up his clothes, ignored Su Qian's objections, insisted on keeping his belongings, and got into the carriage by himself.

Pan breathed a sigh of relief.

Three granddaughters, the eldest granddaughter is the best at pleasing her, everything is to her liking, the second granddaughter likes to play, hee-hee-haha has no heart and lungs, only this little granddaughter, seeing that she is a grandmother is wrong, she will take care of it, she doesn't care if she is angry or not, just have a little face and do her own thing, although her third daughter is not an aunt and nephew, the two have similar tempers, and they are their own nemesis.

Haha, no one cares about me, and I can play well again.

Ge Kailin discussed with Wu Limei, and also left Shui Yue and Shui Jue, and asked the two to go back to Tan Liuer's house to help on their own, she just didn't want anyone to always nag in her ear, be careful of this, be careful of that, be constrained everywhere, so as not to spoil her mood.

Wu Licui's village is far away from Gejiazhuang, originally to make her niece happy, Wu Licuilan is not in a hurry all the way, walking by the horses, and she herself explains the crops in the field to her niece and niece from time to time.

Ge grew up in the countryside. Even if she doesn't work much, she still knows a lot of crops, but since Wu Licui is kind, she doesn't want to destroy this good mood, not to mention that she really doesn't understand many things in farm work.

"Huh," Wu Licui suddenly grabbed the reins of the horse, and the car pulled out a few weeds on the side of the road. walked over and handed it to Ge Kailin and Wu Yinwei. Laughing: "Guess what this is?" ”

When she looked closely, the leaves of the grass were dark green, and they looked a bit like orchid leaves. It is more straight than the orchid leaves, with only two, one longer and the other shorter. The short leaves are encased within the long leaves.

When Wu Licui was pulling weeds just now, she paid attention. The blades of grass point straight to the sky like a sword, and when you look at the roots, they are snow-white in color, and they are in a straight line with the leaves in their natural state. There are no forks, like sugar cane, section by section. Only hair-thin hairs are found at the segments.

Ge Kailin blurted out: "Hehe, Jiegen." ”

She didn't chew on this thing when she was younger. The people in the village call it Jiegen, put the root in the mouth and bite, the juice inside is sweet like sugar water, and the children will always drag some to eat as snacks when they play in the field.

Wu Licui laughed: "Jiegen? However, it is an image, this grass is called a solid herb, it can be seen everywhere on the edge of the field, the more arid the place is more deeply rooted, this kind of grass usually looks inconspicuous, but it can survive in the famine. ”

"Auntie, have you ever encountered a famine?" This is the first time Wu Yinwei has spoken along the way.

"No," Wu Licui shook her head: "I've heard the old people in the village talk about it." ”

Ge Kailin asked, "Auntie, since this grass can survive in times of famine, how does it taste?" ”

I don't know if it's the same flavor as the knots I know.

Although Wu Yinwei didn't speak, she was also very curious to see her expression, Wu Licui smiled: "You will know what it tastes like if you taste it." ”

There is a door, you can eat, Ge Kailin is excited: "I'll taste it first." ”

Stuffing a stick of solid herb into your mouth, sure enough, it has a very familiar sweet and silky taste.

Seeing Wu Yinwei's surprised face, Ge Kailin deliberately smacked her lips: "Fifth cousin, it's sweet and delicious." ”

Wu Yinwei looked down at the weeds in her hand, and then at her cousin who was chewing with relish, still a little hesitant.

Wu Limei smiled: "Yinwei, you taste it, it is indeed sweet." ”

Ge Kailin was curious: "Mother, have you also eaten it?" ”

Wu Licui revealed the old bottom: "Haha, your mother's mouth is as greedy as you when you are young, not only this solid herb, but also a lot of wild grasses and wild fruits your mother wants to taste." Once, when I took your mother to work in the fields, she didn't pay attention, and she stuffed the prickly peel fruit into her mouth, which almost scared me to death, and quickly patted her on the back before she spit it out, but fortunately she didn't bite through the skin. ”

Thinking of the scene at that time, Wu Licui was still a little afraid.

"Prickly fruit?" Ge Kailin and Wu Yinwei asked in unison.

What is this?

Wu Limei said with a smile: "It is a poisonous fruit, and it is difficult to treat people who eat it by mistake." ”

Ge Kailin was shocked: "Huh? Can my mother identify me, so that I don't eat reads();. ”

Naturally, she doesn't eat casually, but if she recognizes it, she might be able to use it one day.

Wu Licui answered: "It is difficult to find the prickly peel fruit now, the imperial court has ordered it to be eradicated, how can you see people coming and going in this place." ”

"Can you tell me about the shape of the prickly peel fruit, if we do come across it, we should be careful." Wu Yinwei asked.

"Yinwei, have you ever seen cotton peaches, and castor beans." Wu Licui asked rhetorically.

She knew that the sixth brother and his wife pampered their daughter, and their niece didn't go to the field much.

"I once pestered my father to take me to the field, and I saw cotton peach, but castor bean didn't recognize it."

"It's okay, just see the cotton peach, the prickly peel fruit looks very similar to the cotton peach, but it is full of soft thorns like the castor fruit."

Ge Kailin played with the treasure: "Mother, you scared me to death, if you really bit the skin back then, I wouldn't be able to see my mother." ”

Wu Yinweile: "Haha, sister, if the third aunt bit the skin back then, where would there be a sister you." ”

After walking for a while, Wu Limei stopped: "Sister, see if it's bitter meat over there." ”

The carriage stopped, Wu Licui pulled the reins, Wu Limei's car, Wu Yinwei and Ge Kailin followed, and followed Wu Limei into the field on the side of the road.

I don't know which family's cultivated land, but the ground is neat, but the field is full of wild grass.

Wu Limei pointed to a piece of wild grass shaped like a dandelion: "This is bitter meat, pure heart defeats fire, can detoxify, and it is best to eat it in summer." ”

Ge Kailin squatted and looked, isn't this just bitter herbs. Last time, the old monk made oily noodles, Ge Kailin was naughty and deliberately taught him to put bitter and bitter vegetables in.

If you look closely, you don't think it's right, the leaves of bitter herbs are light and thin, and there are large serrated notches on both sides of the leaves. This grass has smooth edges. The leaves are thick, really like slices of cut and dyed meat, no wonder it is bitter meat.

Wu Yinwei pulled out one and held it up in front of her eyes to watch. frowned and asked, "Third aunt, is this grass very bitter?" ”

Wu Limei nodded: "It's extremely bitter, but it's also a good medicine for interpretation, and it's easy to find." ”

Ge Kailin asked Wu Limei: "When Aunt Fang is cooking." In order to get rid of the strange taste, the dish will be slightly boiled in water. Can this bitter meat be the same? ”

Wu Limei smiled: "It's okay, after boiling water, it's just eaten as an ordinary vegetable, and it has no medicinal value." ”

"Third aunt, how does the bitter meat taste after boiling water?" Wu Yinwei was curious.

"Cool and slightly bitter." Wu Limei said.

Oh. It's still bitter!

Ge Kailin and Wu Yinwei lost interest in bitter meat, and got out of the cultivated land and climbed into the carriage, followed by Wu Limei. The four of them continued.

Along the way, Wu Licui and Wu Limei pointed out some wild objects to the two children from time to time.

When you are almost in the village. Wu Yinwei asked Wu Licui: "Auntie, my father said that compared to other people's families, the daughter of the Wu family does not work on the land, why does the aunt still take the third aunt to work." ”

Wu Licui pulled the horse who was stealing the weeds on the side of the road back to the right path, and said: "I am more than ten years older than your third aunt, and more than twenty years older than your father.

When I was young, there were slaves in the house, but unlike now, when the farm was busy, there was no distinction between master and servant, and all of them were so busy that their feet did not touch the ground, but later the family became wealthy, and there was no need to work by myself, but I was used to working. ”

Wu Yinwei asked again: "People say that people go to high places, so is the aunt willing to farm?" ”

Wu Licui smiled: "Your aunt and I have no interest, coveting the simplicity and nature of a small farmer's family, and this life has been like this." ”

Ge Kailin sighed secretly, Wu Licui is not promising, she clearly sees it, pursues what she wants, and gets what she wants.

Wu Licui's yard is a common farmhouse, but it is slightly larger than the usual farmhouse.

There are five main houses, three east wings, next to the east wing are two rooms, a row of slightly lower houses on the west side of the yard, raising horses and cattle, and a chicken shed and pigsty on the south side of the yard.

Half of the yard is planted with vegetables, and in the middle of the yard there are two pear trees, and the growth is very different.

A tall and stout tree with dense foliage, but the fruit on the tree is sparse.

The other tree had its trunk broken off, and branches grew from the side, and the branches and leaves were sparse, and the fruit on the tree was much denser than the previous one.

Ge Kailin circled around the pear tree and asked, "Auntie, has anyone abused the fruit tree?" ”

Wu Licui smiled: "It's your eldest cousin, he was naughty when he was a child, he hung a branch to play when he was fine, broke the main trunk, and the branch was also pulled into a strange shape by him, and he broke some thin branches from time to time, but I didn't expect that this tree would bear more fruit." ”

Seeing his daughter-in-law leading his sister-in-law and niece back, Zhou Daquan couldn't react for a while.

When the daughter-in-law returned to her parents' house yesterday, she said that her parents-in-law were old, and they went back to their parents' house to live for a few days while they were still free in the field.

"Idiot, what are you doing in a daze, don't go to get food."

Wu Licui was angry, Zhang Tiezhuan Zhou Daquan woke up and scratched his head: "There is no food at home." ”

"Haha, brother-in-law," Wu Limei teased: "Isn't there a vegetable in your yard, is it reluctant?" ”

"Oh, no," Zhou Daquan's face flushed, "I mean, there's no meat at home." ”

Wu Licui smiled angrily: "What kind of meat do you want to buy, it's already time to eat, and when you buy the meat, it's already dark, they are all your own relatives, just make some food, and get up early tomorrow morning to buy meat." ”

"Hehe, then I'll roll out some lasasa, I remember you said that the third sister likes to eat lasagna and pour kimchi, and then make some fish for Yinwei and Kailin, and pour golden needles and egg flowers, okay?" Zhou Daquan smiled.

"Whatever you cook is delicious, just hurry up and don't starve the child." In front of her sister and juniors, Wu Licui did not hesitate to praise her husband.

Zhou Daquan went to the room, and Ge Kailin asked Wu Licui quietly: "Auntie, didn't you say that the gentleman cooks far away, why does the eldest uncle still cook, are you bullying the good people, and usually the eldest uncle cooks?" ”

Wu Licui laughed and fell: "Haha, where do little people come from some strange words, it's just a matter of living, whoever is free and convenient will cook, don't wait for it, your uncle's fish is delicious, elastic and strong." ”

It didn't take long for the meal to be cooked, and as Wu Licui said, the fish was both strong and elastic, and it was thin, almost into a cylinder, so that Ge Kailin tasted the ancient version of macaroni reads() for free.

Oh, and unfortunately, Wu Licui said that Ge Kailin was once again overwhelmed.

Wu Yinwei also touched her stomach from time to time, and it seemed that she had eaten a lot.

Wu Limei also ate half a bowl more than usual.

Ge Kailin thought to herself, no wonder most of the chefs are men, this one has a lot of energy, and the cooking is different.

After eating, Zhou Daquan instructed his daughter-in-law to stay at home with his sister and children to rest, and he put a hemp rope into the rattan basket himself, picked up the basket and prepared to go out.

Wu Yinwei asked, "Uncle, do you want to work in the land?" ”

"Well, the grass has grown in the cotton field."

"Uncle, can I go with you?"

"No, the sun is very poisonous at this time, don't sunburn you."

"It's okay, I'm here to learn how to do farming."

Ge Kailin was already asleep, and she listened to the conversation and came to her senses: "I'll go too." ”

Wu Licuile: "Haha, what are you going to do, people are not yet high." ”

It is possible that I have seen the growth of cotton along the way, not to mention that Ge Kailin is only five years old, or Wu Yinwei, who is eight years old, may not have been submerged in the cotton field.

Seeing her daughter's little face wrinkled into a bun, Wu Limei felt distressed: "It's okay, I'll just go with it." ”

Originally, I also accompanied my daughter to relax.

Zhou Daquan still wanted to stop it, Wu Limei smiled: "Brother-in-law, if you push it again, just prepare dinner directly, sister's fried dumplings, sister, I haven't eaten it for a long time." ”

"Smack," Wu Limei was gently slapped on the back by Wu Licui, and Wu Licui said angrily: "I'm still so naughty when I'm dozens of years old." ”

Zhou Daquan scratched his head: "Hey, hey, I'll go to the town to buy meat tomorrow morning, and I'll eat fried dumplings at noon." ”

Well? The eldest uncle blushed, and the aunt said that the mother was naughty, gossiping, there was definitely gossip, and the little star in Ge Kailin's heart flashed.

Coming to this world, Ge Kailin This is the first time she has really touched the field, on a whim, she didn't take a good field path, pulled Wu Yinwei to step into the grass on the side, looked back at the small trench in the grass that she stepped on, Ge Kailin giggled.

When she played, Wu Yinwei changed from passive to active, and in turn took Ge Kailin with her, either catching grasshoppers or toads, leaving laughter all the way, and running with a red face and feeling tired.

The next few adults looked funny, Ge Kailin was usually a little adult, and Wu Yinwei always kept a straight face, and only then did the two really show the naughtiness that children should have.

When they arrived at the ground, Wu Licui took out the handkerchiefs prepared in advance, and as soon as they wrapped their hair, Ge Kailin plunged into the cotton field, which frightened Wu Limei and chased after her.

Most of the cotton seedlings are taller than the daughter, who has never done farm work and walks unsteadily, what if she falls or gets scratched.

Inside, being tied up by the branches, Ge Kailin couldn't walk fast, and followed Wu Limei to squat honestly and pull weeds. (To be continued.) )
