Chapter 13 Planting Ginger

After the three brothers and sisters had eaten, they got out the ginger they bought. Jiang Yu'er called her brother and brother to leave some ginger that had not sprouted to eat, and cut off the larger buds when they sprouted, and left the smaller ones on the mother ginger.

It's time for the sun to set. Jiang Amao looked at the ginger in the room and asked his sister: "Niuniu, can this Laoshzi really be grown?" ”

Jiang Yu'er smiled mysteriously and said, "Brother, don't worry, this thing can not only be grown, but also a good thing!" ”

Seeing that there were not many varieties selected, Jiang Yuer thought about planting all these gingers in the vegetable field behind the house. This vegetable patch was left behind when my father and mother were there. Later, after the father and mother left, although the three brothers and sisters would also grow some vegetables in it. But because I don't take good care of it, I can't eat the dishes every year before they grow well.

The next day, the three siblings didn't think about going up the mountain. After breakfast, I was ready to go to the vegetable garden to plant ginger. There is no such thing in this era, Jiang Yuer didn't want others to see it, and she also told her brother and brother to let them stop talking nonsense outside.

Who knows, as soon as the three brothers and sisters were about to go out, the second aunt came over.

"Ah Mao, Niu Niu, are you going to do a living?" The second aunt Luo is a kind woman, her father and mother walked by, and the second uncle's family did not help the three brothers and sisters. Now that the grain has been harvested, she also wants to send some food to the three brothers and sisters. Hearing from her husband, Ah Mao's affairs in the town have also resigned, and I am still worried for a while. Now I was a little surprised to see the three brothers and sisters taking their hoes and going out.

Hearing the second aunt's call, the three brothers and sisters stopped. Seeing the cloth bag in the second aunt's hand, Jiang Yu'er was full of emotion. She knows very well what the conditions of the second uncle's family are, and their family has been out of food for almost two months. When her cousin came to play with Ziming, she heard that the family had already dug up wild vegetables: "Second aunt is here!" After asking, I felt open the door and took a small stool and walked out, beckoning the second aunt to sit.

Who knew that the second aunt refused: "If you want to go down to the field to do work, then go!" This grain has also been collected, and I will make a calculation with your uncle and bring you some grain. It's not much, but it's still a few meals. ”

Ziming's little guy has liked this second aunt since he was at home, turned around and went back to the house, found some candy that his sister and brother bought for him, and walked out quickly. handed it to the second aunt and said, "Auntie, this is for you to eat." ”

Second Aunt Luo smiled and squinted her eyes, and shirked: "Ergou, you can keep it for yourself and eat it!" Auntie is an adult, and adults don't eat sugar. "Adults are like this, some things, in order to make children think that adults are different from children, always say that adults don't eat, or children eat, and some even say that children can't eat or something. In short, a whole bunch of excuses.

And Jiang Ziming is no longer the child who doesn't know five or six, so he won't be deceived by Luo's words: "If your aunt doesn't eat it, you can take it back to your brother and sister!" After speaking, he didn't care about Roche's shirk, and put it directly in the pocket of the apron around her body.

Rural people are like this, because they have to do things at home, they always wear an apron.

Jiang Amao saw that the second aunt was about to take it out again, and said loudly: "Auntie, you can take it!" This sugar is not worth a few dollars, not to mention that Ziming also has it! ”

Seeing this, Roche didn't say anything more. During this time, the youngest son always liked to run to his brother and sister, and she didn't know that he could get candy here. It's just that every time he comes, she will explain to him, don't always eat the candy of her brothers and sisters, they are not easy.

Then the three brothers and sisters were going to go to the field, and after putting the rice in the kitchen, they said, "What are you going to plant?" I'll go back and tell your uncle to come and help. Now the family's fields have been turned over, and there is nothing to do. ”

The three brothers and sisters wanted to shirk it, but after seeing the second aunt's unrefusable eyes, they had no choice but to come down. Anyway, they are a family, and when their own family is planted, it is not difficult to bring the second uncle's family with them.

After a while, the second uncle Jiang Erzhu came with his eldest son Ermao. Seeing his cousin, Xiao Ziming happily pulled him and began to chirp non-stop. The second uncle is a good farmer, and when he saw the contents of the bag of the three brothers and sisters, he also frowned with some disapproval and said, "What is this?" ”

Seeing the second uncle like this, Jiang Yu'er smiled and said, "Second uncle, this is called ginger, but it's a good thing." It can be eaten and used as medicine. When you are cold, drink a bowl of ginger soup, which can play a role in warding away the cold. As the saying goes, eat radish in winter and ginger in summer, this ginger is a good thing! ”

Jiang Erzhu was stunned when he heard it. Even Jiang Amao and Jiang Ermao are the same, only Jiang Ziming, who listens to his sister the most, seems to have no feelings.

Jiang Erzhu came back to his senses after a long time, took a piece of ginger seed and said, "I can't think of it!" This little thing, it looks so strange, actually has such an effect. ”

Jiang Yu'er didn't care, smiled and said, "Second uncle, we only have these kinds of things now." After we plant it, the second uncle's family will also plant some! Presumably, it will be able to sell for a good price. Ermao is not small, and it is better to have some money at home. ”

A small bag of ginger seeds was planted in this way, and the uncle and nephew were going to leave their father and son to eat, but the second uncle said that he would not stay here to eat. When she left, Jiang Yu'er gave her second uncle some ginger, and also told him how to eat it and follow the medicine method.

This ginger is usually eaten as a condiment, and some ginger is put to enhance the flavor when cooking, ginger can not only be cooked, but also to remove acne marks, wipe the scalp, soak feet, etc.

Ginger is a fast-growing crop, and it is now the end of August, and it is believed that it will be edible by the end of winter.

Looking at the remaining ginger in the kitchen, Jiang Yu'er smirked vigorously: "Hehe, hehehe!" ”

"Sister, what's wrong with you?" Jiang Ziming has been standing here for a long time, looking at his sister like this, is he smirking, and he is also confused.

Hearing her brother's call, she came back to her senses, hugged her brother and kissed her fiercely and said, "With ginger, we can cook fish soup and eat." Hee-hee~hee-hee~" After saying that, there was another smirk.

And Jiang Amao, who heard his sister talking outside the door, was also speechless for a while, what kind of fish, there is a big river not far from their Zhangzhuang Village, and there are a lot of fish in it, but the fishy smell is too strong, if it is not really helpless, I am not willing to get it. It's not easy to get so many tiny thorns on its body, and if you don't get one right, it will get stuck in your throat.

"Niu Niu, that fish can't be eaten. A few years ago, a man in the village went to the river to catch some fish and came back because his family really had no food, and he killed the fish bones. Jiang Amao immediately came out to stop his sister's idea, although they had no food, they couldn't take that risk.
