Chapter 6 Ground Soup and Wild Eggs
For a moment, Lin Vanilla couldn't help but be overjoyed, hurriedly squatted on the ground, and reached into the bushes to dig eggs.
They went back and forth, and they took out a full twelve.
Lin Vanilla was stunned, she didn't expect that there were more than twelve eggs in a nest, she saw wild eggs for the first time, only to feel that this wild egg was not much smaller than an egg, but the color was darker, and it felt good to the touch.
Having made up his mind, Lin Vanilla hurriedly bundled the medicinal herbs, put the eggs in his arms, and walked all the way down the mountain.
She was overjoyed when she thought she was going to return empty-handed, and made up her mind to surprise Lin Xiaoshan, how should she eat then?
As soon as I arrived at the entrance of the village, I saw that there were three children, and one child was being bullied on the bluestone board where the clothes were washed.
Lin Xiangxiang didn't care, but when she caught a glimpse of the child's very familiar small body, she tried to shout: "Xiaoshan? ”
"Sister......." Lin Xiaoshan's crying voice came, Lin Vanilla only felt that her whole body was exploding, and she picked up the big stone on the ground and ran towards the bear children who were bullying Lin Xiaoshan.
"Who dares to bully my family's hill, who dares!"
When did those bear children see someone give Lin Xiaoshan a head, and heard that Lin Vanilla was dead, seeing her running over, they hurriedly shouted: "Ghost! ”
Lin Xiangxiang watched them flee in all directions, and hurriedly turned back to check Lin Xiaoshan's injuries, but unexpectedly, Lin Xiaoshan burst into tears and smiled: "It's okay, Sister, they just want to see that I can't finish washing my clothes and go back to be beaten." ”
After Lin Xiaoshan's reminder, Lin Vanilla really found that there was a foot basin at Lin Xiaoshan's feet, and the foot basin was filled with clothes piled up with spikes.
It looks like the clothes of several uncles in the family.
Lin Vanilla knew that it was not the time to turn her face with these people, so she took all the wild eggs she was carrying to Lin Xiaoshan, and squatted down to help him wash them.
"Ah, sister, where did you get so many eggs?" Lin Xiaoshan's tone was obviously filled with a hint of excitement.
Lin Vanilla had already guessed that he would be very happy, and smiled proudly: "Then it is needless to say, your sister dug up in the forest, the eggs laid by pure pheasants." ”
"Wild eggs?" The soft and glutinous children's voice came from his ears, Lin Xiaoshan seemed to think of something again, and hurriedly squatted down and said, "Sister, let me wash it, your body has not recovered yet." ”
"Where are the children washed, stand there well, protect our eggs, this is our lunch."
After Lin Vanilla's advice, Lin Xiaoshan really stood motionless, for fear of dropping the egg in his arms.
After Lin Vanilla washed all the clothes out, a stomach scream came into Lin Vanilla's ears, Lin Vanilla looked at Lin Xiaoshan's red cheeks, and then realized that Xiaoshan was hungry!
When the two sisters and brothers returned home, they cooled their clothes, and happened to see the Lin family eating again.
Unexpectedly, when she saw the two sisters and brothers coming back, Mrs. Chen immediately came to close the door of the hall.
Lin Vanilla asked Lin Xiaoshan to go back to the house to hide the wild eggs, and was going to take them out to cook them when the Lin family went out, and she was going to put the footbasin under the eaves, and then she walked over, and saw Li Changshuo squatting under the stove drinking vegetable soup, she was stunned.
Li Changshuo obviously hated her, and when he saw him coming, he turned around and walked towards the cowshed behind the house.
Lin Vanilla looked at him a little stunned, and suddenly remembered that in the Lin family, they were not allowed to serve at the table. And he works during the day, and at night he works to supplement the Lin family's family, and a meal is also based on wild vegetable soup.
"Sister, come and see a lot of Lei Gong dishes." Lin Xiaoshan's voice came, and Lin Vanilla looked back and saw Lin Xiaoshan squatting in the middle of the courtyard, studying something.
Lin Vanilla took a closer look, and it turned out to be a ground vegetable, and he was surprised.
This ground vegetable is green and only appears when it rains, like a miniature version of the fungus, so it also has a name called ground fungus.
I still remember that my mentor Uncle Quan in my previous life had cooked porridge and drank it, which is a rare taste that I have a chance to taste in the 21st century, which is full of reinforced concrete.
originally thought that she was too lonely, even if she died, there was nothing in that world for her to linger, but now that she thinks about it, Uncle Quan's voice and smile are always so clear.
At this time, Lin Xiaoshan took out the broken porcelain jar that caught the rain in the house, poured out the water inside, and squatted on the ground to pick up vegetables.
"Sister, Lei Gong's food is delicious." Lin Xiaoshan's happy voice came from his ears, and Lin Vanilla collected his thoughts, and also squatted on the ground and accompanied him to pick it up.
The ground is small, and although it is dense, it is also a laborious matter.
Soon, Mrs. Chen came out with a bowl in her hand.
When Lin Xiaoshan saw her coming, he hurriedly stood up straight: "Grandma, I have washed all the clothes, and I will go back to the house to slaughter the pigweed in a while."
Lin Vanilla tightened the ground vegetables in her hand, watching Lin Xiaoshan being bullied like this by the Lin family, she couldn't swallow her breath, but after thinking about it carefully, now was not the time, and she stood quietly by Lin Xiaoshan's side.
Mrs. Chen's eyes looked her up and down for a while, Lin Xiangcao thought that Mrs. Chen was going to beat and scold people again, but she didn't expect that Mrs. Chen squinted with a smile.
"Vanilla, are you getting better? Where did you go this morning? ”
"I'm not feeling well, my sister went to pick herbs for me." Lin Xiaoshan hurriedly replied, and when Mrs. Chen heard this, the smile on her face was even worse: "Come, Grandma has left you some food, you sisters and brothers must be good, otherwise, how can I explain to your father." ”
As she spoke, Mrs. Chen stuffed the gap bowl in her hand into Lin Xiaoshan's hand, and Lin Vanilla watched her go back to the hall, muttering in her heart.
If something goes wrong, there must be a demon, what is the idea of this Mrs. Chen, she usually has to scold her three times when she has nothing to do, but now, she has learned to greet people with a smile.
Could it be that she still plans to marry her?
No, tomorrow she will go to the market and sell medicinal herbs, she must ask someone to write a letter to Yang Lichang and ask him to come back soon!
"Sister?" Lin Xiaoshan called her, obviously frightened by Mrs. Chen.
Lin Xiangcao saw that the vegetables he picked up were enough to eat, so he picked up the broken jar and pulled him to the firewood room.
The sister and brother went back to the house twice, Lin Xiaoshan put the open-mouth bowl on the wooden board, Lin Vanilla looked into the bowl, it was all wild vegetable soup, and there was a half-sized white-flour steamed bun in the middle.
