Chapter 220: Hereditary Bad Habits
Because Xu Zhongjun and the regiment commander were not worried about their group of women and children going up the mountain, on March 11, the two finally stopped working overtime and prepared to follow them up the mountain.
At eight o'clock in the morning, after the two families gathered, Xie Xiaonian led the way and walked to the west mountain.
When someone asked, Xie Xiaonian said that he went to the west to cut firewood, and there was a lot of firewood and wild vegetables there.
The people in the compound also knew that there were more wild vegetables and mushrooms over there, but because there were enough to eat nearby, they wouldn't run that far.
Among the group of people, the happiest are the two little guys Guoan and Guoxing, who are bouncing and happy along the way, even if the road is a little far, they are not tired.
Several people were holding wooden sticks, Xie Xiaonian showed the way, Xu Zhongjun took the lead, and they arrived in the mountain after a while.
After arriving at the mountain, several people walked to the rope noose and trap that Xie Xiaonian had laid yesterday.
However, although people don't come here often, it's not that no one comes, and it relies on the troops, so although there are some animals, they are not as many as on the mountains in Xie Zhuang.
Moreover, the place where Xie Xiaonian set the trap was also on the outskirts of the mountain, not deep, so even if there were 30 rope sleeves and 1 trap, he caught a total of 3 pheasants and 2 hares.
Although Xie Xiaonian is a little too little, others don't think so, especially Wu Shuqin, whose jaws are about to fall in shock.
Their family is a dual-income worker, and they only have more than 2 catties of meat tickets a month, but this hunting, they caught so many in one day, each with an average of about 4 catties, and together there are nearly 20 catties, which is almost half a year on top of her family.
Children, on the other hand, don't have any concept of numbers, so they know that they can have meat to eat, so from the moment they get the first one, they are all circling around the basket.
When Xie Xiaonian taught them, they also listened carefully, for fear that they would not be able to eat meat in the future.
Although Wu Shuqin and the head of the regiment didn't say anything, they also learned silently on the side, after all, they were the main force.
After seeing all the places and rearranging them, several people moved to the other side and began to arrange the rope sleeves brought by Guoan.
They have made up a total of 23 in the past two days, and when the time comes, they will be able to catch up with Xie Xiaonian by digging two more traps.
When they arranged the national security, Xie Xiaonian did not interfere, and relied on their family to find animal traces and put down the rope sleeve, Xie Xiaonian only gave a few hints when they made a mistake.
And there were two big men there, and after a while, 4 traps were dug, and the excited Guoan was still shouting on the side to catch the roe deer.
People here don't hunt often, and even if they make signs, others may not be able to read them, so in order to prevent someone from falling into it and getting hurt, they don't put any sharp weapons in the trap.
After getting all this done, it was more than 10 o'clock, and then Wu Shuqin and Xie Xiaonian took the children to dig wild vegetables and pick mushrooms, while Xu Zhongjun and the regiment commander were responsible for chopping firewood, so that they could have a cover when they went back.
Although it is not yet the middle of March, there are a lot of wild vegetables growing here, and although they are not too big, they are all tender and suitable for eating.
By 11 o'clock, a group of people had seen that everything was almost done, so they were ready to pack up and go home.
Because he wanted to put the pheasant and hare in the back basket and cover them with firewood, before cleaning up, Xie Xiaonian asked Xu Zhongjun to bring a pheasant and a hare to the regiment leader's house.
Wu Shuqin looked at the things Xu Zhongjun carried, and hurriedly said: "There are only a few in your house, what do you send us, hurry up and take them back." ”
"Sister-in-law, you just take it, I still have 3 of them, you can take this back and make a delicious meal for the Guoan them." Xu Zhongjun said.
"You can't ask for that, Zhongjun, my family has all set it up, maybe I can catch it tomorrow, I really can't ask for it." Wu Shuqin refused.
"That's it, loyal army, you haven't finished eating the roe deer meat you gave two days ago!" Wang Gangyi also refused.
Xie Xiaonian saw that both parties did not give in, so he put down the firewood in his hand, stepped forward and said: "Sister-in-law, don't be polite to my family, I can't finish the rest of my family, and maybe there will be another harvest tomorrow, there are only two people in my family, how can I eat so much, and this is for the three brothers and sisters of Guoan, not for you, you can't refuse." ”
Wang Gangyi saw that Xie Xiaonian had to give it, and the relationship between him and Xu Zhongjun was there, so he didn't have to be too polite, so he said to Wu Shuqin: "Next, take it home and make up for a few children." ”
Wu Shuqin saw that her husband agreed, so she was not polite anymore and happily accepted it.
The 3 children who were stunned on the side, seeing that their mother was next, were happy to not, Xiaotong also said excitedly: "Mom, can our family eat meat again at noon?" ”
"Yes, eat it at noon." Wu Shuqin replied with a smile.
Xiaotong received an affirmative answer, and happily chatted with her two brothers about the meals they might have at noon.
After going back, Xie Xiaonian felt a little tired, and he didn't do the prey he brought back today, but heated a few buns, cooked a pot of porridge, and the two of them ate some casually.
Because today was the first day of hunting in the mountains for the two families, they were very excited but couldn't tell others, so after dinner in the evening, Wu Shuqin's family came to Xie Xiaonian's house to visit the house, happily discussing today's harvest and what to do in the future.
Because Wu Shuqin's family went to school and went to work, there was no one at home all day long, and Xu Zhongjun didn't want Xie Xiaonian to run up the mountain with pancakes every day, so in the end, the two families decided that in the future, the rope sleeves and traps on the mountain would be collected by the two men after they returned from the army, and they could just bring some firewood back to the family by the way.
Guoan and Guoxing, on the other hand, can only wait until their day off to go up the mountain with adults.
Xie Xiaonian has no opinion on this result, anyway, her purpose is just to have fresh meat to eat, as for whether she went up the mountain to fight or not, it doesn't matter.
In the end, all the adults in the opposition of Guoan and Guoxing made a friendly decision on the matter of hunting in the future, and the opposition of Guoan Guoxing was finally suppressed by his mother with the threat of not being able to eat meat in the future.
In this way, the days entered the fourth month of the lunar calendar in the hunting of the two families.
During this period, Xie Xiaonian slowly planted all the vegetables at home, because she didn't want to go out to buy urea, and she didn't want to use manure to fertilize, so in the end, she could only let Xu Zhongjun go up the mountain to pick up a few loads of humus and come back to fertilize when she was resting.
In addition, there is room for watering when the river water is there, and the vegetables in her vegetable field grow with a special spirit.
And the chickens at home have also grown up a bit, but Xie Xiaonian still kept them in the cage and put them outside after a while.
It is worth mentioning that she has started raising hares again now, because the prey caught before can't be eaten, and almost all of them are alive, so Xie Xiaonian left the rabbits and put them in a cage on the balcony.
Slowly accumulating, she now has nearly 20 rabbits, and air-dried pheasants and hares have also stored some.
Because Wu Shuqin's family doesn't eat at home at noon, and there are always people who go to her house, she has more rabbits than Xie Xiaonian's family, so she specially vacated half of Xiaotong's room and placed a rabbit cage to raise rabbits.
Therefore, when Xu Zhongjun and the regiment commander go up the mountain, they not only have to chop firewood but also mow grass for the rabbits at home.
Because both of them are soldiers, after the conditions at home slowly improved, Xie Xiaonian discovered their struggles, probably because he felt that his family ate meat all day long, and other families had to point to the meat tickets issued by the army to live, and he felt a little uncomfortable.
However, Xie Xiaonian has no way to solve these problems, unless he asks everyone else to go up the mountain to hunt, or there is no perfect solution.
At this time, the pancakes have been almost 8 months, and there are more and more things to eat, because the vegetables and fruits outside are limited, so Xie Xiaonian feeds the pancakes with the food in the space every time before Xu Zhongjun comes back.
And since the little guy can eat mashed meat, it is really meatless, and he doesn't even love the mashed potatoes and vegetables that he liked to eat before.
If it weren't for Xie Xiaonian's pressure, he would have to feed him vegetable puree, he would definitely only eat meat and not vegetables, and he was really like Xu Zhongjun.
"Zhongjun, you see that your son is completely a carnivore, and he doesn't like to eat vegetables anymore, it's all your fault, and all bad habits are passed on to his son!" Xie Xiaonian complained while forcing the pancakes to eat vegetable puree.
"It's not good to like meat, it means that our pancakes are a man, and a man wants to eat meat, isn't it!" Xu Zhongjun said casually while teasing the pancakes.
"What kind of crooked reasoning are you, isn't it a manly person if you like to eat vegetables, this kind of partial eating is very bad, do you know, fortunately I am a mother, otherwise the pancakes must be very unbalanced!"
After finishing speaking, Xie Xiaonian felt that what he said was too reasonable, so he continued: "If you don't say it, I forgot, when you usually eat, as long as there are meat dishes, you seem to hardly move vegetarian dishes." When you eat in the future, you must eat at least half a plate of vegetables at each meal, otherwise you will definitely be taught bad by you when you are sensible about pancakes in the future. ”
"Don't do it, daughter-in-law, I'm an adult, I don't need to grow my body, and I don't need any balanced nutrition!" Xu Zhongjun felt that he was really stealing chickens and rice, why did he discuss this issue with his daughter-in-law, he should follow her!
"Definitely! So decided! Xie Xiaonian decided directly.
Poor Xu Zhongjun, in order to set a good example for pancakes, from now on, he can only be forced by Xie Xiaonian to grieve his stomach.
And the pancakes that were lazy and unwilling to learn to sit before, under the guidance of taking off thick clothes and Xie Xiaonian's unremitting efforts, they were finally able to sit steadily, and recently they have a tendency to climb.
Watching the growth of the child, Xie Xiaonian is very happy, and now he teaches pancakes to call his parents whenever he is free, and he is happy to do it every day.
And on the 3rd day of the fourth month of the lunar calendar, Zhang Fengyu finally went out and returned to the team.
As soon as Xu Zhongjun arrived in the army on this day, he saw Zhang Fengyu holding a piece of paper and said to Xu Zhongjun: "Zhongjun, there is a surprise!" ”
"What?"
"Don't you see? Look at who this recruit is, you know it! ”
"What a thing, mysterious!" Xu Zhongjun took the paper in Zhang Fengyu's hand as he spoke.
However, after taking a few glances, Xu Zhongjun's brows were deeply wrinkled.
