Chapter 15: Innocent Cruelty
At the end of February, it was the tomato sowing season, and Lin Jing bought a bag of tomato seeds to sow in a few days.
Xiao Qinghe thought about it, took out the bag of tomato seeds, divided ten of them, and put them in a bowl to soak.
In ten years, it is not easy to double the output of grain, vegetables and meat, and she must seize every minute and every second to evolve the genes of crops as soon as possible to complete the task.
The vitality in his body was depleted again, and Xiao Qinghe spent a quarter of an hour cultivating, filling the vitality in his body again.
This time she cultivated, she felt a feeling of swelling and tingling in the dantian, she knew that this was caused by repeated repetition of the depletion and fullness of the vitality in a short period of time, and next, the dantian needed a period of recuperation.
However, Xiao Qinghe still gritted his teeth and made another bowl of vitality water.
Instead of soaking the seeds, she brought the bowl of water to the vegetable garden behind the house and poured them evenly on a few lotus plants, cauliflower, lettuce and greens.
She secretly wrote down these plants, and was ready to observe how they differed from other vegetables, and if the growth rate, yield and taste were improved, she could consider keeping the seeds at that time.
Vegetables watered with vitality water should produce better seeds than ordinary ones, right?
Of course, all this will take time to test.
After watering the vegetables, he couldn't continue to cultivate, Xiao Qinghe thought about it, put it on his back, and picked up a rusty sickle and went up the mountain.
In the ten days since she returned home, she was either recuperating from her injuries or improving her anemia, so she only did some light work such as cleaning at home. Now that her anemia has healed, it's time to help her mother share some of the heavier work.
She decided to go into the mountains to hunt pigweed.
Xiao Qinghe had never beaten pigweed in her previous life, but she had secretly rubbed the pigweed that Lin Jing had cut back these days, and now she has also written down several kinds, which is enough.
Passing through the village, a group of children ran past Xiao Qinghe:
"Lotus flowers are so pitiful, others have fathers, you don't have them, I don't know where to get a little wild seed......"
"Lotus Flower, Lotus Flower, you are so ugly, so thin that your whole body is full of bones......"
Singing their own smooth mouths, the children rolled their eyes, stuck out their tongues, and made all kinds of grimaces at Xiao Qinghe.
Xiao Qinghe was a little stunned for a while, she had never seen such a bad child in her previous life, although when she was in school, she had also heard that there were school bullies bullying classmates at school, but she had a good family background and good academic performance, and she really hadn't met it.
Looking at the innocent faces, full of naked~naked~ naked malice, Xiao Qinghe's face was also full of coldness.
It is said that the world of adults is complicated, and the world of children is simple, however, many times, that kind of simple ignorance makes the world of children more cruel!
At this moment, Xiao Qinghe felt deeply distressed for the original owner, it was just a six-year-old child, how could she stand it in the face of such bullying every day?
If it weren't for her two lives, I am afraid that she would have become inferior and cowardly because of their cruelty.
Turning her head, she glanced at the adults who were smiling at a group of children bullying her in the distance, Xiao Qinghe's faint eyes swept over the faces of those children, remembering their faces.
After turning his back upside down, Xiao Qinghe went straight up the mountain, and said in his heart: When there is no one, see how I clean you up!
At the end of February, the smell of spring is getting stronger. Wutong Mountain, which has been silent for a winter, has become vibrant again, which makes people's mood jump.
Along the way, there are many unknown wildflowers blooming on the roadside, white, pink, yellow, purple, clumps and patches, which are very beautiful.
Occasionally, birds fly overhead, leaving a crisp chirping sound that adds to the excitement of the silent mountain.
Spring is the season of recovery of all things, the beginning of the year, she should also let go of the past life and start her new life!
Xiao Qinghe put his hands to his mouth and shouted loudly: "Ah......hh
After shouting, the panic and helplessness in the strange era seemed to spit out with the voice, and the mood became clearer.
Xiao Qinghe happily cut the pigweed, while also paying attention to whether there were any wild vegetables she knew.
When it comes to wild vegetables, I am afraid that not many people like them in this era, but after a few decades, wild vegetables have become more precious.
Xiao Qinghe prefers several kinds of wild vegetables: folded ear root, bracken, shepherd's cabbage, Tsubaki sprouts, artemisia, elm money......
Now this weather, the root of the folded ear is inevitable, and the other times will be a little later, if you want to pay for it, I am afraid that there is no Jiangzhou area.
Walking along the ridge, Xiao Qinghe found a folded ear root.
The leaves and roots of the folded ear root can be eaten, just like eating tofu brain is divided into sweet and salty parties, and there are also those who like to eat the roots of the folded ears together, and only eat the roots.
People in the Jiangzhou area generally eat the leaves and roots together, and use it for cold salad. People in Qianzhou generally only eat roots, which are used for stir-fried meat or as a condiment for cold dishes.
Xiao Qinghe likes both.
In the first month, the roots of the folded ears are still very tender, and it is the best time for the roots and leaves to eat together, Xiao Qinghe put down his back, picked a handful, and pulled a grass vine into a bundle.
Make an egg skin soup for lunch, and then mix it with a plate of folded ear roots, you can save a portion of vegetables.
Xiao Qinghe thought and continued on the road, and after a while, he found a few bushes of wild onions and quickly dug them out.
The folded ear root and wild onion are a perfect match!
For lunch, Xiao Qinghe had some expectations in his heart.
Unconsciously, Xiao Qinghe walked to a bamboo forest, thinking of the bamboo treasures he had eaten in his previous life, and couldn't help but feel moved in his heart.
Bamboo shoots, bamboo bird's nest, bamboo sunflower, morel mushrooms...... This is a delicacy given by the mountains to the world, and I will drool when I think about it!
It's just that she didn't pay attention to it in her previous life, and she doesn't know when these bamboo treasures can be picked.
After thinking about it, she walked into the bamboo forest and decided to look carefully.
The bamboo forest is a little shady, and there are scattered bamboo shoot shells everywhere, which have accumulated a thick layer on the ground, and they crunch when stepped on.
While paying attention to her feet, Xiao Qinghe looked around, and she saw small spikes that were short and wrapped in gray hairy bamboo shells.
Bamboo shoots!
This must be a bamboo shoot!
Suddenly, bamboo shoots and pork slices, bamboo shoots fried bacon, dry pot bamboo shoot chicken, bamboo shoot pork rib soup, bamboo shoot roasted beef brisket...... A glimpse of bamboo shoots and meat delicacies flashed through Xiao Qinghe's mind, making her swallow involuntarily.
However, the reality is that there are only bamboo shoots, no meat......
Well, stir-fried bamboo shoots, cold bamboo shoots, sour and hot bamboo shoots, and pickled pepper bamboo shoots also taste good.
Xiao Qinghe didn't know how big the bamboo shoots would be that they couldn't be eaten, so he had to choose the kind of digging that would expose a small spike. It took a lot of effort to dig out one, she peeled off the bamboo shell on the outside, and it was indeed bamboo shoots inside!
This piece is a bamboo forest, a bamboo shoot has several catties, looking at his back not too much, Xiao Qinghe did not dig again, put it in the back basket, and after cutting some pigweed, he went home.
When he got home, Xiao Qinghe first mixed the pot with water, burned it, cleaned the pigweed briefly, chopped it, and put it in to cook after the water in the pot boiled.
