Chapter 165: Thief?

"Today you have a good mouth, pork and camelina dumplings, delicious can bite off your tongue!" Mu Xiu lifted the pot and began to serve dumplings.

"Come, I'll help you." Chen Xuhui stepped forward.

After all the dumplings were brought in, Mu Xiu steamed a basket of corn, wheat bran and coarse grain rice, and put the same thing in the water in the pot below, and after dinner, the steamed rice soup could be fed to the pigs.

On the second day, Mu Xiu followed Mu Shui and Chen Xuhui down to the field, two strong laborers each with a flat pole, carrying two buckets of fertilizer, and the field was full of green as far as the eye could see.

"Dad, spray this medicine all over the ground first." Mu Xiu diluted methyl disulfuron and handed it to Mu Shui.

"Brother Chen, you followed my father and sprayed this medicine." Mu Xiu diluted diflusulfam again, and handed the watering can to Chen Xuhui.

"Xiu, what is this?" Mu Shui asked.

"This is the medicine I bought in the county seat yesterday, it is a herbicide, and I happened to run into it." Mu Xiu replied.

"And this thing? It's the first time I've heard of it, is it useful? Mu Shui asked suspiciously.

"Just try it, Dad, put down the fertilizer, you spray, I'll fertilize." Mu Xiu said.

Mu Xiu took advantage of the chemical fertilizer to prevent the medicinal use of wheat spiders.

After Mu Shui and Chen Xuhui sprayed the herbicide, they began to replant, and the seedlings in Mu Xiu's land were relatively even, and only the position close to the edge of the field needed to be replanted.

In contrast, Chen Xuhui's three-point land is a bit miserable, because the seeds are not good, and he has not done seed promotion and disinfection, and now the growth is falling, if it weren't for the fact that Mu Xiu had fertilized his land before winter, it is estimated that two-thirds of it would have to be replanted.

"Come, plant a little denser, and the seeds that are replanted must be fertilized more, so that you can catch up with the growth of the previous seeds." Mu Xiu said.

"Mu Xiu, you are so good, you should be able to catch up with the previous one soon." It was the first time Chen Xuhui had seen such a good seed.

"You must apply fertilizer frequently, the fertilizer is in the pigsty, you take it yourself and use it, I will prepare it." Mu Xiu confessed.

"Okay." Chen Xuhui nodded.

The three of them divided the labor, and soon finished picking up the three points of the acre, took the tools, and walked home, but when they left, someone looked at Chen Xuhui's back, and then pulled his legs and ran in the opposite direction.

"Xiu, the elm money at the head of the village is very tender, you go pick some, and you can eat some chickens and ducklings." Mu Xiaocao was feeding the chickens, and when she saw Mu Xiu coming back, she hurriedly greeted.

"Wow, I like to eat elm money too." Mu Xiu picked up the small basket and ran outside.

"Wait for me, I'll help you." Chen Xuhui also picked up the basket and followed closely.

At this time, the older children are all busy working in the fields, and there are only a few young children looking up at the elm money tree, and a few of them are already jumping to catch the bottom elm money, and the anxious look on their faces and the saliva left unconsciously are really cute.

There is not much to eat at the moment, and the tender elm money can be made into snacks, and the old ones can be steamed and eaten, so people who do not have enough food at home will come out to pick elm money in the spring.

Chen Xuhui climbed up in three times and five times, directly broke a few branches, and handed them to Mu Xiu under the tree.

Mu Xiu only kept one, and after giving the rest to a few children under the tree, she stroked it, and there was a handful of elm money in her hand, she put it in her mouth, well, it is really fragrant, it is this taste, I haven't eaten it for a long, long time.

Looking at Mu Xiu's satisfied appearance, Chen Xuhui began to speed up, and after a while, there were many branches in the basket full of elm money.

Mu Xiu and the children under the tree are also sweet.

"Alright, it's full, let's go." Chen Xuhui came down from the tree.

"That's a lot, you can make dumplings and eat them." Mu Xiu can't wait.

"Sister, I still want to eat." A small, soft voice rang out.

Mu Xiu turned her head and recognized it as the grandson of Aunt Xiong's family, she smiled and picked up a few more elm money and handed them to a few little guys, they scattered in a hurry, squatted aside and ate.

Mu Xiu and Chen Xuhui returned with a full load, Li Pandi used to eat the most Yu Qian'er, it is not uncommon to see it at this time, Mu Xiaocao asked Yu Qian'er for chickens and ducks to eat, everyone has eaten Yu Qian for many years, this is not uncommon, only Mu Xiu is interested in making Yu Qian dumplings to eat.

She plucked the elm money from the branch and put it in a large wooden basin, and after it was complicated and clear two or three times, she dried it out and dried it.

After drying, she put some salt in it first, finely chopped the green onions, ginger and garlic and put it in, added a spoonful of oil, and mixed it with cornmeal to form a ball one by one.

After pinching, steaming in a steamer, by noon, a large pot of steaming golden dumplings will go abroad, the cornmeal is hard and chewy, and the elm money inside is fragrant and sweet.

"I didn't expect this show to be so delicious, I have eaten a lot of Yu Qian'er, and it is the first time I have eaten like this." Mu Shui picked one up and took a bite, it was really delicious.

Everyone started eating it one after another, and soon, a large pot was eaten.

"Hurry up Ming'er and pick up some elm money, let Xiu do more of this." Zhou Shuilian also eats deliciously.

"Okay." Mu Xiu looked at everyone, everyone liked to eat the food she cooked, and she was very satisfied.

After everyone finished eating, when Chen Xuhui went back, Mu Xiu packed a few leftover elm money dumplings for him and brought them back to eat, Chen Xuhui didn't shirk anymore, and went back to his cabin with the food.

It's just that when Chen Xuhui walked to the door of his house, he suddenly stopped vigilantly, when he left this morning, the door of his house was obviously closed, but now the door of the house is wide open

Chen Xuhui stood outside the door and shouted inside, "Who is it?" ”

"Ouch, you're back." A shrill woman's voice sounded in the room, and when Chen Xuhui heard this voice, blood immediately rushed to the top of his head, and his ears began to buzz.

With this voice, a woman with a round body and slender limbs swaggered out of the room, followed by a tall and thin middle-aged man, who was carrying a bulging burden behind him.

Chen Xuhui looked at it, and the burden was made of the washed white sheet spread on his bed, and a red sausage was revealed in the corner of the burden.

"Are you here to steal?!" Chen Xuhui reacted at this moment, and he scolded these two people angrily.

"Look at what you said, Lao Tzu takes his son's things, is that called stealing?" Chen Xifu grinned.
