The growing grain here is wheat.

However, if you want to eat flour, you have to grind it yourself with a stone mill.

And the surrounding environment is doomed, and the flour that is ground is definitely mixed with a lot of sand and gravel.

In order to make his wife eat the best noodles possible, Fang Zhou would ask his son to bring some back, while he himself would only eat what was grown in the field.

I have eaten it many times and I feel like my teeth are leaking.

Fang Zhou clarified the water a few times, stirred well with batter, and then baked a few cakes on the pot.

He didn't know much about cooking, and his wife used to cook.

But in the current situation, it is obvious that his wife can no longer help him cook.

Fang Zhou, who was forced to be helpless, under the guidance of his wife, actually learned it in a decent way.

After baking the cakes, Fang Zhou made another bowl of black sesame paste.

This was brought by his son to honor him, but he was reluctant to drink it himself, and basically left it all to his wife.

After baking the black sesame paste and good noodles into cakes and serving them to his wife, Fang Zhou picked a little pickles from the vegetable jar.

He himself scooped a large bowl of yellowed porridge from the cauldron.

In the past, he would eat it with bad noodles, but since he had his teeth in his diaphragm a few times, he was no longer willing to use pancakes to support him.

Originally, his teeth were not good, and if he ate a few more pancakes, he was afraid that he would fall out directly.

On the contrary, although his wife was paralyzed in bed, her teeth and mouth were always good.

This is also what makes Fang Zhou more envious and gratified.

If the wife can eat more and be in good health, she will be able to live a long time in the future.

Although death is inevitable, if it can last longer, he will marry back unwillingly.

He Li was an old lady with long hair, most of her hair was gray, and she was simply tied with a rope behind her head.

The hairstyle is also extremely rustic hemp braids, because her husband only ties this hairstyle, and this hairstyle is more convenient and not easy to scrape into the dust.

He Li's figure was a little thin, her face was full of wrinkles, her skin was dark, and her eyes were full of kindness.

Looking at her husband who came in with food, there was both happiness and distress in his eyes.

She felt that she had dragged her husband down, and it was because she was paralyzed that she let him suffer here with her.

"Eat it while it's hot! I think today's cake is just right, don't you see this color? ”

Fang Zhou was eating pickles and drinking porridge, and said boastfully with his wife.

"It's really much better than the previous ones! Looks like you're quite talented as a chef! ”

He Li said jokingly.

"Of course! Didn't I tell you before? My dad was a chef who used to go to the Imperial Dining Room. ”

Fang Zhou's thin and dark face showed a smug look, and dense wrinkles bloomed like chrysanthemums.

"Let's choose the dishes in the imperial dining room! Hehe! He Li smiled.

Fang Zhou also laughed when he heard his wife's words.

Although it is a cow that has been boasting for half a lifetime, the two will happily joke with each other every time.

After eating, Fang Zhou took the dishes and chopsticks outside and wiped them directly with sand.

That's the time you've washed the dishes.

The proximity to the desert is precious, and every drop of water should be cherished.

After putting away the dishes and chopsticks, Fang Zhou put his wife on the cart used to pull water.

"It's a good day, and I can plant a few trees." Fang Zhou smiled.

"Yes! I knew it was so difficult to plant trees, so it would have been nice not to cut them down in the first place! He Li sighed.

When she first got married, there were still many trees around Bihu Village.

It was only later that the empire grew vigorously, and the population grew at the same time as the demand for timber increased greatly.

At that time, the people in the village didn't know what to green and what to protect the environment, they just wanted to cut down every tree they saw and make it into a new house to use for firewood.

And now the crying of indiscriminate deforestation has to be borne by the children and grandchildren.

Fang Zhou first took his wife to pull two buckets of water ten miles away, put down two saplings by the way, and then walked outside the village.

After returning to the village over the years, the rest of his time was spent planting trees around the desert, except for taking care of his wife.

In fact, not only did he not blame him for doing this, but also strongly supported him.

Originally, he was alone, but later, he was a little worried and insisted on bringing his wife.

Inevitably, the progress of tree planting slowed down.

But for the two of them, it doesn't matter if there is more or less, as long as the two can stay together forever and continue to do it, they will have no regrets.

I ran three times in a row, and the time was almost noon.

At this time, another old man in the village, with a bamboo basket, went to the place where the trees were planted and brought food and drink to the two of them.

"Brother Wan Zhong, why are you here?"

Seeing the old man's trembling body, Fang Zhou hurriedly ran over to catch the other party's bamboo basket.

Call! Call!

Fang Wanzhong first took a few desperate breaths, then rubbed his shoulders and said with a smile: "It's okay at home, come and see the two of you." ”

Fang Wanzhong looked up and looked around, and could already see some green shoots drawn out of the saplings in the distance.

However, more saplings have begun to dry up, and I am afraid it will be difficult to survive.

The saplings were provided free of charge by volunteers, but the place was a bit far away, and it was a hassle to run back and forth.

Although the survival rate of Fang Zhou and his wife planting trees is not particularly large, it is much better than the original bare scene.

"If it weren't for the severity of my asthma, I'd like to come over and join you."

"I was so stupid at the beginning, how could I cut such a thick tree?"

Fang Wanzhong shook his head and sighed.

"I can't blame you for this, who knew it would turn out like this!"

Fang Zhou found a flat place and helped Fang Wanzhong to sit down.

Then he first handed his wife the porridge in the basket and asked her to drink some of it, and then he soaked some cakes in plain water for her to eat.

He Li ate some and handed it to her husband, she opened her mouth and said to Fang Wanzhong.

"Brother Wan Zhong, why don't you go back first, the wind and sand here are too big, I'm afraid your body won't be able to hold it."

"I'm half a person with half of my body in the ground, and I'm still worried about the wind and sand! Gasping like this every day, it's better to die. Fang Wanzhong said with a wry smile.

Although she knew that the other party was telling the truth, He Li still kindly comforted.

"You can't think like that, as long as you have a good mentality, you can still live a long life. After a few years, the saplings here will grow, and the Cuihua and the others will definitely come back to see you. ”

Fang Wanzhong has two sons and a daughter, and now they all live in big cities.

Emerald flowers are one of them.

Fang Zhou's children are not very filial, and Fang Wanzhong's children are even worse.

His children hadn't been back for more than a decade, except for someone to help bring some things.

Hearing He Li mention his children, Fang Wanzhong shook his head, sighed, and did not speak.

He knew that the other party was just comforting himself.

"There's a young man over there!"
