Chapter 172: Persimmons
After thinking about it, I still didn't feel at ease, and I told him for a long time, and said: "It's hot this day, you have to walk so far away from the mountain road, but it's not hot, let the fourth child bring a tube of water for you to drink, and now the persimmons in the vegetable garden should be good, or my mother will pick two for you and keep them on the road to quench your thirst?" ”
This is also the kind of sacrifice for Wang Yongzhu.
Wang Yongzhu has never been to the vegetable garden, but some time ago he had eaten fried green persimmons with chili peppers, which was sour and appetizing.
Hearing what Mrs. Zhang said, I was interested.
Follow Mrs. Zhang and take a look in the vegetable garden.
The vegetable garden of the Wang family is just behind the Wang family, and a small door is opened at the edge of the yard, and there is about one acre of vegetable land outside.
This farmer's family, the vegetables of the four seasons have to rely on this vegetable garden.
Ordinary people are very careful.
It depends on whether the housewife of a family is diligent or not, whether she can do farm work and live a life, and you can see how to do it by looking at the vegetable garden of each family.
The Wang family are all diligent people, except for the former Wang Yongzhu.
Therefore, the vegetable plots are neatly arranged, one by one, and various vegetables are planted on them.
Although no one took care of it for several days, and some grass grew wildly, it was still obvious that the owner of the vegetable garden was meticulous.
Now it is the time of spring and summer, the persimmons planted earlier, as well as the eggplant seedlings, have grown stout, and have long been tied to the shelf, and the green and yellow persimmons are hanging on the shelf.
The eggplants are also blooming, and some of them have already grown eggplants the size of a baby's fist, purple and cute.
The yellow flower climbed high on its own, and among the green leaves, the wind blew, revealing a number of small cucumbers with thorns on the top of the adult's fingers.
Not far away, a tuft of leeks attracts people.
There is also a bitter gourd that climbs up against the courtyard wall, and there are also a lot of yellow flowers, and there are some amaranth, fungus and cowpea over there.
Wang Yongzhu regretted it, why didn't he think about going to the vegetable garden before?
Look at this place full of vitamins and diet foods!
Wang Yongzhu remembered that this kind of persimmon was rare in the plane where she came. This persimmon is actually a very old variety, not the kind cultivated in the later period, although it looks half red and not yellow, or some green, in fact, it is already red inside, sour and sweet, juicy enough, sand and sandy, it is best to eat.
She had seen it in the farm, and she had picked and eaten it with her own hands, and she still wants to taste that taste.
No, I can't bear it!
Wang Yongzhu walked to the persimmon ridge and searched for the reddest one to taste first.
Seeing that her daughter really wanted to eat, Mrs. Zhang hurriedly stepped forward, pulled away the leaves, and touched the fist-sized persimmons of three or four children with very vicious eyes: "If you want to eat, just say it, my mother will pick it for you, but don't prick your hands, okay, my mother will wash these few for you?" Definitely sweet—"
Wang Yongzhu sucked saliva and nodded, and by the way, he pointed to the cucumber vine on the shelf: "Mother, wash me two more cucumbers, they will be thorny!" ”
If this is to be replaced by someone else, Mrs. Zhang will definitely scold, isn't this a bad thing? Who's eating cucumbers like this? It's a waste to be so small and have thick fingers! When it grows to the thickness of the arm, the thorns are gone, fry and eat, two or three are enough to fry half a pot.
But this is what my daughter wants to eat, and the stars in the sky must be plucked, not to mention just two cucumbers? The girl wants to eat it, and she keeps this row of cucumbers!
Mrs. Zhang picked out two tender cucumbers, washed them herself, packed them in a clean small bamboo basket, covered them with a clean cloth, and handed them to Wang Yongzhu: "Poor my old daughter, I have been eating vegetable porridge every day these days, and I see that you are so hungry that you even have to eat persimmons and cucumbers that you didn't love before." Okay, I'll get you some money in a while, you go to the town and cut some big fat meat and come back, and give you a tooth sacrifice at night! ”
Wang Yongzhu just touched a persimmon and took a bite, oops, the taste is sandy, the juice is sweet and sour, it is so delicious!
I heard Mrs. Zhang say that she wanted to buy big fat meat to eat, and she almost choked.
Hurriedly waved his hand: "No need, this is enough." Okay, it's early and late, mother, I'm leaving with my fourth brother-"
As he spoke, he ran out holding the small bamboo basket.
If you don't leave, will it be possible to buy big fat meat and come back to eat? Isn't the meat that was lost with perseverance a waste!
I didn't look back and went out of the village, and found that Wang Yongping didn't follow?
Wang Yongzhu looked back, what was the situation? Wang Yongping is not far behind him, and the one next to him is Song Chongjin?
How do you run into him when you go out?
Last time, the family discussed giving Song Chongjin silver to thank him and let Wang Yongping take it, but I heard that he would not accept it after his death.
The two of them pushed back and forth, alarming Song's mother in the house, and when they came out, they just saw the two of them and didn't know what they were pushing.
He asked, "What's going on?" What to push? ”
Song Chongjin's hand was stunned, and Wang Yongping took the opportunity to stuff the silver into Song Chongjin's hand, and snorted: "It's okay, auntie, I'm playing with Brother Song." ”
Then patted Song Chongjin on the shoulder: "Okay, I should go back!" ”
So saying, he ran away.
As for what happened to the Song family, no one knows whether Song's mother found out or not.
Seeing Song Chongjin at this moment, this posture is also going to the town.
Standing in place and nibbling on persimmons, after waiting for a while, the two of them walked in.
Wang Yongping also said arrogantly: "I made an appointment with Brother Song to go to the town today, and I asked you to wait first, but you seemed to have a dog behind you, running fast, and you didn't listen to what I said——"
Wang Yongzhu glared at him, do you want to die? said that he was chased by a dog, this is to say that Mrs. Zhang is a dog?
What Wang Yongping is most afraid of now is his own sister, and when he saw her eyes glaring, he immediately became weak.
immediately begged for mercy: "It's my brother who said it wrong, it's my brother, and my brother is a dog......"
Wang Yongping's desire to survive is very strong, Wang Yongzhu has no eyes to see.
Where is this brother, this is clearly a leg pendant, or the kind with a bad brain!
This is a thick thigh based on blood relationship!
Too lazy to bother with him, Chong Song Chongjin nodded politely, and took out a persimmon from the small bamboo basket: "Do you want one?" ”
I'm still gnawing on it, and I'm seen by someone, so I'm embarrassed to go out without one.
Although it is good to say distressedly.
She vaguely heard that because of her health, Song's mother didn't do anything except make herself three meals a day and occasionally do some needlework.
Because the Song family did not divide the land, although the vegetable fields around the house could be reclaimed, Song Chongjin had no one to teach him, he was a young man, how could he know how to grow vegetables like this?
At most, turn over two ridges of land, sprinkle some vegetable seeds, and whether you can live depends on the will of God.
Besides, he has a lot of self-esteem.
The boy in the village who was as big as him, when he was a teenager and a dog, wanted to eat, and the east vegetable garden touched two persimmons, and the west vegetable garden picked two cucumbers, and was caught, so he was scolded and laughed.
