Chapter 76: A Rare Leisure Time
She sat on the kang, holding the cup, watching Guoguo go in, holding a plate of pastries, and dinner was ready.
Steaming hot, she craned her neck to see that she had made a rice bowl. It's still Kung Pao Chicken, it seems that Guoguo has grown a lot, and she is very pleased.
During the meal, Hao Hao sat on the corner of the kang and spoke.
"Guoguo, the day after tomorrow, I will go to the county seat with my sister to find Ma Mei, find you some books, make a few more clothes for my parents by the way, and choose a day to go home, how about it?"
"Okay, I miss my parents too, grandma is probably back, Junjun should go to school. Guoguo raised her head and raised a white and tender little face, smiling like a flower.
"Yes, it's been more than February, I studied in the morning, this time I found information, you can take a look at it, my sister asked Ma Meiduo to find some foreign books, learn more, and meet foreign friends in the future, so that it is easy to communicate." Hao Hao fed Tian Tian a mouthful of rice, the child has teeth, itchy gums, and always loves to eat fingers, she will occasionally feed a mouthful of rice to divert attention.
"Sister, just decide." Guoguo has no opinion, in short, there is nothing wrong with listening to Hao Hao, Hao Hao is so sensible to Guoguo, and he is very ironed in his heart.
It's a new day, sending away Guoguo and Xu Laohan.
Hao Hao secretly removed the raised saplings and placed them in the yard.
Since a spring rain the day before yesterday, the temperature has risen suddenly, and now there is no need to wear cotton jackets and cotton pants.
Hao Hao couldn't sleep, so she was busy in the open space of the vegetable garden, and she was ready to turn the vegetable garden into a dreamy and beautiful hanging garden.
Roses belong to foreign flowers that can be built into arch shapes, although she does not know why she has them, but without the slightest hesitation, she directly loaded two at each of the four corners of the vegetable garden, and then poured space water.
Then, planting cherry blossoms and peach blossoms, she planted the garden all around, and she was afraid that the soil quality would not meet the requirements of the flower species, so she directly removed a large pile of soil from the space, covered the remaining vegetable garden with a layer, and planted strawberries and watermelons on it. It is then covered with a mat made of corn stalks.
Now looking at the high temperature, it is not possible to ensure that there is a spring cold, and a spring cold will freeze to death many animals and plants.
She didn't want her hard work to be ruined.
After tidying up the vegetable garden and wiping the sweat from her forehead, she went into the house to eat something, and then ate the door with the basket on her back.
Before going out, he sent Tian Tian to the next room.
When she went out, the sun had risen, and it was about eight o'clock.
In the past few days, the land has been leveled, and there are many people planting spring wheat, and some people have gone to the fields before dawn, and the sound of tossing and making noise makes the dogs in the village bark non-stop, and occasionally the sound of men coughing can be heard. She carried the basket on her back, went downhill, crossed the stone bridge, and met the old man of the village.
"Baby, where are you going?" The old man carried the basket on his back, as if he was coming back from outside, with a mist on his head, and his face was ruddy.
"I'll go to the back mountain and find something." Hao Hao stopped, handed the buns he had prepared to the old man, and said with a smile.
"You're one?" The old man looked behind him, there were only two dogs, and there was no one else.
"Well, these two dogs in my family are no worse than people, and they can help me bring things, old man, I have to go, and I will come back to cook at noon." After Hao Hao finished speaking, he didn't wait for the old man to speak, he had already walked away, the old man couldn't shake his head, and pinched the bun given by Hao Hao in his hand, and was moved.
After Hao Hao said goodbye to the old man, Hao Hao galloped all the way, the morning fog dissipated, the sky showed a clear appearance, and the magpies overhead chirped non-stop.
By the time the first rays of sunlight shone completely on the roof to the east, Hao Hao was already standing on the top of the mountain. She put her hand on her forehead and looked down.
The mountains and forests are lush and green, and the pink and white peach blossoms dot the entire mountain.
I didn't expect the mountains and forests to bloom so early, she opened her arms and took a breath of air. Walking down the mountain, the big and small two black girls ran wildly and plunged into the woods. It was easy to descend the mountain, and she didn't have much effort to get to the place.
Before he could catch his breath, the wolf king led his family to squat in front of Hao Hao. The meaning is very obvious, to eat.
Hao Hao was laughed at angrily, and he didn't see them send some wild things and medicinal herbs, so he just blindly begged for them. I wanted to be ruthless, but the little wolf's wet eyes stared at her, and she surrendered. I gave something to eat, and I opened my mouth by the way.
"Remember to find me some ginseng, Ganoderma lucidum or something, so that I will have something to eat next time."
"Roar" The wolf king raised his head to the sky and roared, and the birds in the forest flew into the sky.
Hao Hao helplessly supported his forehead, he couldn't do anything about them, so he got up and walked forward.
After the wolf king's family was full of food and drink, they sent each other all the way, and Hao Hao went straight to the hot spring pool. She hadn't been in a hot spring for a long time, and when she arrived at her destination, she put down her backpack, stripped off her clothes and jumped into the hot spring. There was a splash of water.
Jumping into it with her was a little white wolf, one man and one wolf soaking in the hot spring pool. Comfortable rolling, swimming.
When she had had enough, she leaned on the edge of the pool and watched the sun overhead.
The warm sun shone on the top of her head, and the warm water of the hot spring slowly soaked into her body, and her sour and stiff body suddenly felt a lot more comfortable.
Suddenly, a bunch of purple grapes with water droplets appeared in the palm of her hand, she pulled one off, threw it into her mouth, and then gave one to the little white wolf.
Sweet and sour juice rippled in her mouth, and she felt that life was too happy.
Before the grapes were finished, the leopard, which had not been seen for a long time, appeared.
It was holding a purple ingot-shaped thing in its mouth, and Hao Hao looked at it and saw that it was a purple Ganoderma lucidum.
What she had been looking forward to for a long time was actually brought by the leopard.
Hao Hao watched it take graceful steps, stepping on cat steps, and slowly walked towards her little by little. It seems that a century has passed, and Hao Hao has waited for it.
"For me?" Hao Hao pointed to his nose and found that the leopard had put Lingzhi in front of him with a lazy look, and his throat made a gurgling sound, as if he was coquettish. Hao Hao took the lingzhi and sent the leopard and the wolf king's family into the space. And she continued to soak in the hot springs and eat.
Time flies, and the sun rises in a blink of an eye.
She dragged her weak body out of the hot spring. I got dressed and went to the peach forest. She cut a number of peach branches from it, with buds, and some that bloomed, and she put them in a basket.
Returning to the bamboo forest from the peach forest, the bamboo shoots in early spring are the most delicious. Kneeling down, little by little throwing away the soil, the tips of the bamboo shoots in the soil popped up, with a brown coat, only ten centimeters long and delicious, but nothing could beat it.
One of them dug for a long time.
The mountain-like bamboo shoots were included in her bag.
Sa Huan came back with a rabbit and pheasant in his mouth, probably because he was a little thin after a winter.
Hao Hao threw the prey into the space, continued to feed, and when it weighed about four or five pounds, put it into his own chicken pen and lay eggs to hatch chicks. Rabbits can also be raised.
Looking up at the sky overhead, it was almost noon. Hao Hao called for the big black to go home.
The big and small black is still growing, and now it is half the size of a calf, standing up is a head taller than her, and her physical strength is not inferior to the two strong cows in the family, Hao Hao can rest assured that he can call boldly.
The back basket with a small number of bamboo shoots and branches was tied to Da Hei's body, and the other branches that were moved from the space were tied up and let Xiao Hei carry it.
And she only held a bouquet of blooming peach blossoms, and followed them with joy. It took a while to go back, but it was very rewarding.
On the way home, I met people who were busy returning home, and they looked at Hao Hao's two dogs with envious eyes, which was better than strong labor. Hao Hao returned home with a spring breeze.
Guoguo and Xu Laohan had already gone home, looking at the greatly changed courtyard and Hao Hao with a happy face, their hearts returned to their stomachs.
"Sister, did you go to the back mountain alone?" Guoguo's face darkened, and he looked at Hao Hao and asked.
"There are also big and small two black, I basically don't work much, this is the peach blossom I picked, you find a bottle to raise, and eat bacon and fried bamboo shoots at noon today." Hao Hao automatically ignored Guoguo's dark face, the sister in front of her, the nagging didn't stop, she had an extreme headache, and the only way was to pretend to be stupid.
"I'm going to be busy, you arrange flowers." Guoguo saw that Hao Haoyi was hiding from herself, and she also felt bored, so she resigned herself to going to the next door, leaving the last bit of bacon left in the house, cleaning it and cutting it into pieces. Hao Hao put flowers in every room.
"Dad, Uncle Sun, don't let Tiantian get it down." Hao Haolin told before going out that the second elder spoiled the child and spoiled the lawlessness. She couldn't say anything, so she could only remind her kindly.
The second elder also agreed, turned around and took a stick in a place where Hao Hao couldn't see it, and sent it to Tian Tian.
Hao Hao didn't know about it either, so he went back to the house and helped Guoguo steam rice.
"Did you make any pastry reservations today?" Hao Hao washed the rice, poured it into a clay pot, put it on the stove, and asked.
"Sister, it's okay if you don't ask, I have a headache when I ask, you can see for yourself." Guoguo took out the order from her pocket, she couldn't understand the fanaticism of those people, ordinary people were just ordinary people, but the purchasing manager of the department store also ordered a lot. Thinking about the scene at that time, she had palpitations.
"I see!" Hao said with a smile.
"Yes, the manager of the department store sees that our pastries are good, we need five hundred catties a day, five hundred catties, sister, it has to be baked for a long time, and it takes time and effort, you are pregnant, tired, I can, but I go out of the stall every day, and I come back at noon, can your order be completed?" Guoguo is quite troubled, some people are worried about having no business, and she is worried that the business is too good.
"Five hundred catties is not good, but two hundred catties can be discussed, tomorrow we will give him five hundred catties, and when he takes it, tell him that five hundred catties cannot be made, and at the same time only limit two hundred catties a day, the taste is arbitrary, and the style is also arbitrary. What do you say? Hao Hao asked with a smile.
"This one does." Guoguo thought for a moment before nodding in agreement.
Fortunately, Hao Hao has a lot of flour in the space, otherwise the noodles at home would not be able to withstand it at all. Xu Laohan didn't care about these trivial matters, and was only busy with other things at home.
After lunch, he went to the field.
With a planter, wheat can be planted, and corn can only be planted around May Day. Wheat is different from millet in that it has to be planted earlier, has a long growth period, and produces good quality.
Hao Hao soaked the saplings she found in a wooden basin and covered them with thatched mats, and she would start planting them in a few days.
