Chapter 25: Eat more
The next morning, Xie Wenan finally put on the robe that Sister Qing had newly made for him.
"Our sister Qing'er's needlework is really getting better and better. Look at how flat and dense the stitches are, and the boss is wearing them just right. ”
When Liu saw his eldest son wearing a new robe, he was so satisfied. Although his son is in his early thirties, he is still a personable talent. In addition to the eldest granddaughter's craftsmanship, it added color to her father.
Under Liu's appreciative gaze, Xie Wenan went out of the house. Along the way, many familiar people took the initiative to greet Xie Wen'an.
"Boss, I'm going to the academy."
"Yes, Uncle went down to work in the field!"
"Take a look down on the ground and see if you can get your feet down."
……
"Master, good."
"Okay."
……
Xie Wen'an was in a good mood today, and his walking steps were much lighter than usual, especially when he passed by those rice grain shops and dim sum shops, he couldn't help but take a closer look.
Before going out today, Sister Qing told him and asked him to inquire in the shop about the prices of white rice, white noodles, melons, fruits, pears and peaches.
Although he doesn't know what Sister Qing is going to do, he will definitely do what his daughter explains. After he finished school in the afternoon, he would definitely inquire about it.
Today's weather is really good, Yiqing has been nesting in the house for several days, and I can't stay anymore.
After breakfast, she begged her grandmother to let her go to the yard to bask in the sun. It took a long time to get the milk to agree to her to stay in the yard for a while.
The weather in April was wonderful, especially since it rained yesterday and the leaves were washed away. The small greens in the vegetable gardens on both sides of the yard are more spiritual than one tree.
Yiqing sat on a small bench and looked at the clear blue sky.
"Sister Qing, what are you looking at? So obsessed. Xie Wangchun, who had just inspected the ground, was extremely happy to see that his eldest granddaughter was finally able to walk around the house.
"Grandpa, look at the cloud in the northwest, it doesn't look like a flying fairy."
Looking in the direction of Sister Qing'er's finger, Xie Wangchun looked at it carefully: "Don't say it, it's really like." ”
"Where?" Yilin also came to join in the fun, but the cloud seemed to be shy, and after being said by Yiqing, it slowly dissipated without a trace. Yilin didn't see it for a while, so he had to look down and look for the ant nest again.
"Old man, why did you come back so soon?" It was a little strange for Liu to see that his old man came back so quickly.
"Why can't you be happy, when you get out of the village, you can see our family's land, the rain that fell yesterday is good, but you can't go to the ground."
Xie Wangchun squatted in his yard, looking at the small vegetable patches on both sides of the aisle in the yard, thinking about what small vegetables to plant in the next stubble.
"Damn, the little spinach planted on this field in the east is almost finished, what do you want to plant?"
"What else can be planted? It's either spinach or cabbage. ”
"At this time, don't plant cabbage, it's too easy to attract insects."
"What's the best of that?" Liu was worried, when he heard his eldest granddaughter, he opened her mouth with a smile.
"Grandma, how about we plant some peanuts."
"Peanuts are good, of course, but peanut seeds are expensive. The general ones have been bought by large families, where can we buy them from small households. Besides, even if there is, it's a bit expensive. ”
Xie Wangchun thought that the seeds of peanuts were expensive and his family couldn't afford them, so he sighed silently.
"Master, my dad brought back some peanuts yesterday, saying that he would let you see if they could be used as seeds. I was curious yesterday, so I had to take a look. My father said that he would send it to you when I was done, but I forgot about it. ”
Last night, Yiqing took out some peanuts in the space, she thought this thing was good, it could be eaten as a dish or as a snack.
She was thinking about how to come up with a valid reason. It happened that my grandmother was talking about growing vegetables, so she turned her words to peanuts. And then, of course, it was pushed on Daddy.
"Did your dad really get the peanuts back?" Xie Wangchun listened to the words of his eldest granddaughter, and his heart was still very anxious.
"I really got it back, milk, and put it on the quilt in our house." Xie Yiqing opened her mouth to tell her grandmother where the peanuts were placed.
"Hey, I'll go get it." Liu heard from his eldest granddaughter that he had put it on the quilt, so he hurried into the house to get it. After a while, he came out with a baggage.
"Oh, old man, it's quite a lot, it has to be seven or eight pounds." Liu Shi held the burden, weighed it with his hands, and handed it to Xie Wangchun.
"Second brother, take out the big basket, let's peel peanuts right here." Xie Wangchun opened the baggage, looked at the peanut pods with four or five beans inside, and excitedly called his second son to move the basket for him.
"Dad, such peanuts must be highly productive." Xie Wenzhong came out with a basket, and when he saw his father put the burden in the basket and opened it, he was attracted by the peanuts in the baggage.
"Well, the peanuts we saw before were all two beans per pod, and at most three beans. But these peanut pods are all four or five beans, and the yield must not be wrong. ”
As a farmer, what he cares about most is the yield of crops, and the Xie family, father and son, are both authentic farmers, and of course they are most concerned about the yield.
At this time, of course, I was overjoyed to see such a good peanut as a seed.
Yifeng and Yilin saw the peanut and came over with a smile.
"Grandpa."
"Grandpa." Yilin also did the same, followed behind Brother Yifeng, and looked at the peanuts with a greedy face.
Xie Wangchun looked at the peanuts and then at the two grandsons, so he ruthlessly grabbed a handful of peanuts for them.
Yifeng held peanuts in both hands and hurriedly said to his grandfather, "Thank you, grandpa." ”
Yilin saw Brother Yifeng and said to his grandfather: Thank you! He also said to his grandfather with a smile on his face: "Grandpa is so good." ”
"Just your grandfather, what about me?"
Yilin saw that the milk was polite, and hurriedly leaned over and pulled the placket of the milk's clothes to please and said, "The milk is the best." ”
"Poof." Liu himself couldn't hold back. "My little grandson is going to slip away."
"Yilin, come here, let's sit on the threshold and eat."
"Hey!"
"Look at these two gluttonous boys, this raw peanut can also be eaten so fragrant."
When Liu saw his two grandsons, holding raw peanuts that could be eaten, he couldn't help but feel sad.
"Milk, raw peanuts are a good thing, there is a home remedy that said that raw peanuts can not only produce blood, but also promote the growth of bones, Yifeng and Yilin are the time to grow their bodies, they should eat some raw peanuts."
"Really? Sister Qing also needs to eat more. Liu thought that his eldest granddaughter had shed so much blood, so he grabbed a handful of peanuts and handed them to his eldest granddaughter.
"Milk, I don't like to eat raw peanuts."
"If you don't like to eat, you have to eat. Didn't you just say that eating this is good for your body. ”
