Chapter 5 I took my son up the mountain to find food

It's just that the earth is rejuvenated, everything is awakened, and every household has begun to plan for spring plowing and autumn harvest, and her family, let alone spring ploughing, doesn't even know where the next meal of rice and grain is.

Looking at the empty and poor thatched house, Xiao Qiqi was really worried.

But fortunately, she is not a pessimistic person, and her attitude towards life is still positive.

So, she began to work neatly, first cleaning the messy house, and then cleaning the dusty vegetable basket, and then she hugged her beautiful little Zhengtai Xiao Xingchen, rubbed his head and said: "Xingxing, there is nothing to eat at home, my mother is going to go up the mountain to find some food to come back, what about you, just obediently guard at home, okay?" ”

"Mother, do you know where to go up the mountain?" Xiao Xingchen's beautiful phoenix eyes looked at Xiao Qiqidao coolly.

"What's so difficult about this, the mouth grows on the mother's body, although the mother forgot about it, but you can find a passerby to ask. Don't worry, my mother won't get lost. Xiao Qiqi grew up in her grandmother's house when she was a child in her previous life, and her grandmother's house was surrounded by mountains on three sides and faced the sea on one side, so going up and down the sea was not a very strange thing for her, and she was still quite confident.

But Xiao Xingchen pulled Xiao Qiqi's sleeve and looked at her like that with a cold little face.

"What's wrong? Star? Aren't you happy? ”

"Mother, I'm going up the mountain too." Xiao Xingchen felt that his mother was so stupid, he said that before, just to let his mother open his mouth and let him lead him up the mountain together, but his mother didn't understand what he meant, so he could only say it directly.

"Xingxing, it's not that my mother doesn't want to take you there, but you're still young, if you go up the mountain at such a young age, if you bump into it, your mother will feel distressed, so Xingxing is obedient and waits for her mother to come back at home, okay?" As soon as Xiao Qiqi said this, Xiao Xingchen immediately stood up from his chair.

"Mother, I'm not a three-year-old child, I'm six years old, I've followed my godmother up the mountain to pick wild vegetables, pick mushrooms, and go down to the river to catch fish and crabs since I was four years old." Xiao Xingchen pouted with a pink pout, displeased that his mother actually underestimated his ability.

When Xiao Qiqi saw Xiao Xingchen's posture, he hurriedly smiled and apologized: "I'm sorry, Xingxing, my baby son is so powerful, I don't even know it as a mother, it's really undeserved." Well, since Xingxing is a little man, then ask Xingxing to take his mother up the mountain together, okay? ”

"Well, it's okay, my mother can come with me." Xiao Zhengtai Xiao Xingchen raised his chin proudly, he led the way with a cool face in front of him, Xiao Qiqi, carrying a vegetable basket, and followed his son to the direction of the mountain funny.

On the road, Xiao Qiqi's body bones don't know if it's a relationship of little exercise, but he is a little out of breath after only walking for such a while, it is not as good as Xiao Xingchen's little Zhengtai, he walks steadily, his face is not red and his heart is not beating, it is obviously a relationship that has gone a long way and is used to it.

At this time, he saw that Xiao Qiqi was some distance behind, so he stopped in place, looked back and saw Xiao Qiqi walking in front of him, he continued to walk, continued to walk forward, so, stop and go, most of the time later, Xiao Qiqi and Xiao Xingchen arrived on the mountain.

As soon as he arrived at the mountain, Xiao Xingchen took Xiao Qiqi's hand, pointed to a big stone and said, "Mother, you sit here for a while and take a rest, and leave the rest to Xingchen to deal with." Xiao Xingchen patted his little chest, lifted the vegetable basket and began to look for wild vegetables on the spot and dig them up.

Speaking of which, spring has arrived, and the wild vegetables that are all over the mountains have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain. In this way, there are really many people who go up to the mountains to pick wild vegetables and mushrooms at this time.

This Xiao Qiqi saw Xiao Xingchen's small figure shuttling back and forth among those adults and children, busy and busy, she was naturally not good at being a mother and not doing things, thinking, she walked quickly to Xiao Xingchen's side, and followed her son to dig up wild vegetables.

Speaking of which, the varieties of wild vegetables on this mountain are quite rich, there are longevity vegetables, bracken, camellia, gray cabbage, mother-in-law, bellflower, wolfberry vegetables, Tsubaki cabbage, and you can make a table of wild vegetables at that time.

Xiao Qiqi, who was digging wild vegetables, was thinking beautifully, and Xiao Xingchen, who was on the side, glanced at the vegetable basket with small eyes, sighed and shook his head, and picked and threw away some green plants with his little hands.

"Son, what are you doing here? Why did you lose all these dug wild vegetables from my mother? ”

"Mother, this, this, and this can't be eaten." Xiao Xingchen pointed to his mother-in-law, and said with bellflower and wolfberry vegetables.

"Son, who sued you, these things that can't be eaten? Mother sues you, this is the mother-in-law, also known as dandelion: this is a good thing, it has the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying, reducing swelling, diuretic, and can achieve the effect of choleretic and liver protection. However, if you eat it, if you don't blanch this dandelion, the taste will be more bitter, and ordinary people can't eat it. However, after blanching the dandelion salad, it is okay to eat, stir-fry or make soup, it can also be mixed with jellyfish skin and fried shredded meat; It can also be mixed with green tea, licorice, honey, etc., to make a cup of mother-in-law green tea that can clear away heat, detoxify and reduce swelling. ”

After saying this, Xiao Qiqi pointed to the bellflower and said: "This is called bellflower, also known as bright leaf vegetables, four-leaf vegetables, and monk hats: we generally eat bellflower roots, but in fact, its young seedlings can also be used to fry and eat, and the taste is also good." Of course, eating bellflower is beneficial, it has expectorant and antitussive, analgesic, antipyretic, sedative, hypoglycemic, anti-inflammatory, anti-ulcer, anti-tumor and antibacterial effects, so you must not underestimate its role. After introducing this, Xiao Qiqi finally pinched the wolfberry dish and said.

"As for this wolfberry vegetable, it can also be called earth fairy seedlings, Tianjing grass and wolfberry heads, etc., this thing is cool in nature, sweet and slightly bitter in taste. It has the functions of tonifying the liver and kidneys, benefiting essence and qi, clearing heat and thirst, and brightening the eyes. It has a definite prevention and treatment effect on high blood pressure, diabetes, vision loss, etc. The general way to eat it is to blanch it and then mix it cold, scrambled eggs, boil soup, boil porridge, etc. Xiao Qiqi said, picked up the mother-in-law, bellflower and wolfberry vegetables one by one, and put them in the vegetable basket.

As for Xiao Xingchen, he looked at Xiao Qiqi in wonder and said, "Mother, these godmothers haven't said it, how do you know?" ”

"Your mother and I already know, maybe I don't want to remember any bad memories, so I don't know anything about your mother. Of course, in the past, your mother and I should have been very bad, and everything bad was angry with the stars, I'm sorry, son, my mother won't do this in the future. ”

Xiao Qiqi rubbed Xiao Xingchen's head gloomily, although it is very good to have such a caring son, but thinking of those good friends in modern times, it is inevitable that he is still a little sentimental
