When I was a child in Shandong, I often ate gray cabbage. In my hometown, I love to eat noodles and gluten soup, and I put gray cabbage in the soup, which is delicious.

When you come to Heilongjiang, there are all kinds of wild vegetables here, and there are also gray cabbage. They also eat wild vegetables, which are eaten in sauce, but they don't eat gray cabbage.

The neighbor Wang's sister-in-law is from the Northeast, has a perennial stomach ache, takes a lot of medicine, and does not get better. I don't know what kind of wild vegetables she ate to eat the right way, and pulled out a big bug.

When I went to see it, the worm was still on the flat floor of the latrine, three feet long, an inch wide, yellowish-white, a little green, so thin that it had only skin left.

I heard from Wang's sister-in-law that this insect would die if it was pulled down, and there were seven or eight small insects that would run away if they fell to the ground, and they all crawled away.

Since then, Wang's sister-in-law's illness has healed, and her stomach no longer hurts.

In 1961, I took my relatives to the Anda County Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine to see a doctor, and I saw a rural woman in her 50s, her face swollen like a small No. 3 basin, her belly like she was eight months pregnant, her ten fingers stretched out, she could not bend, her feet were pulling on men's shoes, and her eyes were so swollen that she couldn't see.

After the doctor examined her, he asked, "What have you eaten?" Got food poisoning. ”

The man next to her said, "Eat gray cabbage." ”

I just heard that the gray cabbage in the Northeast cannot be eaten. I can't imagine that it is so toxic.

When I went out to play the other day, a couple of old ladies talked about the starvation in 1960.

Wang Ying is a native of Northeast China, she was ten years old at the time, and her family usually does not eat wild vegetables. There was not enough food to eat, so she went to the field with her mother and dug up a lot of wild vegetables, and there were a lot of gray cabbage in them.

After eating this meal of gray cabbage, the whole family was swollen. She eats small amounts and is lightly swollen; Her dad ate a lot and was the most swollen.

Wang Ying took the medicine and it didn't swell in a few days.

His father didn't take medicine and injections, and his body was swollen and thin, like a balloon that was blown up, as if he could poke a hole with his hand. He couldn't wear clothes, he couldn't cover the quilt, and his urine was swollen like a small rice bowl.

Dad was uncomfortable, and snorted during the day: "It hurts me to death—it's uncomfortable for me—"

Wang Ying said: "At that time, I was hungry and there was nothing to eat. A few days ago, Dad ate something, but then he didn't eat anything and drank water. In less than half a month, the person died. ”

Wang Ying said as she shed tears.

Everyone said: Heilongjiang gray cabbage can't be eaten.
