Chapter 31 Growing Vegetables
, the fastest update of the latest chapter of the pet farmer little girl! As the two spoke, they began to work, and Liang himself brought a small hoe and brought seeds, which were of different kinds, and Liang wrapped several packets of brown paper densely.
"Well, today we will plant some melons and fruits in loofah, bitter gourd, cucumber, and other seeds, and when the weather is warm after a while, you can plant them yourself." Liang said to An Xiu'er.
"Okay." An Xiu'er nodded, she couldn't tell when these seeds were planted, they were planted too early, in case they were frozen to death by then, they were planted too late, and they were afraid that the rain would not be enough and they would not survive.
Sowing these melon seedlings, it doesn't take much time, after planting, Liang said some precautions to An Xiu'er, and told An Xiu'er the approximate sowing date of these seeds in his hand, these seeds are a little too much, An Xiu'er carefully wrote them down, fortunately she is not completely unaware, in previous years, the family also planted vegetables, she still has some impressions, Liang said twice, she also remembered.
"These seeds are all sown at different times, so don't be mistaken." Liang told An Xiu'er several times, and said: "You don't have to worry too much, when it's time to sow seeds, I'll ask the eldest girl and the second girl to come over and remind you." ”
An Xiu'er put away the seeds, "Then thank you, mother, I knew it earlier, I don't have to remember it." ”
"That's not good, you have to learn it slowly, you have to know." Liang shook his head helplessly, he was reluctant to let his daughter do this, but after all, he was married, and he had to learn to grow up.
"I know." An Xiu'er nodded obediently and said, "Mother, let's stay for dinner today." ”
"No, I still have to go home, you don't know, your father and your second brother are both working in the fields." Liang stood up as he spoke, and said, "It's not early, I have to go back to cooking." ”
When An Xiu'er heard this, she didn't leave her, she just stood up, and while sending Liang out, she said, "Then when I'm free, I'll invite my father and mother to come to the house for dinner." ”
Liang shook his head after hearing this, and said, "There are so many things to do this spring, where can I be idle." ”
An Xiu'er thinks about it, this farmer, there are a lot of things, except for rain, it seems that there is no time to spare.
The two walked to the door, An Xiuer was waving goodbye to Liang, and met Zhang Zhen'an, seeing Liang, he nodded and said hello to her: "Mother-in-law is here, why don't you sit at home more?" ”
When Liang saw that it was Zhang Zhen'an, he was a little stunned for no reason, worried that Zhang Zhenan would misunderstand that she was here to fight the autumn breeze, so he replied: "I just came to see Xiu'er, there is something else at home in my house." ”
Zhang Zhenan is a sincere person, and when he heard her say that she had something to do when she went home, he didn't do much to keep her, but just picked up a fish from his fish basket, put it in Liang's basket, and then went into the house.
Liang was a little stunned for a while, turned his head to look at An Xiu'er, An Xiu'er winked at her playfully, waved her hand, and also entered the house.
Well, I came to help my daughter, but I didn't want to take her gift, and I don't know if the old man will talk about himself when I go back.
"Why did you come back so early today?" An Xiu'er walked over and looked at him Yingying.
The man didn't speak, only reached out and put his arm around her, and pricked her face with his beard, and An Xiu'er giggled, "It's so itchy, it's time for you to shave." ”
The more she spoke, Zhang Zhenan pricked her face twice, then let go of her, took out the fish basket on her waist to show her, and said, "My harvest today is very good, so I'll come back early." ”
"Well, your little fish basket is full, and today's harvest is indeed good." The corners of An Xiu'er's mouth raised a smile and said, "But no matter what the harvest is in the future, you should come back early, and when the sun is big, it will not be good for your eyes." ”
"I'm wearing a hat, what does it matter if the sun is big or not." Zhang Zhenan said and looked at the fish basket in his hand, remembered the word "small fish basket" she just said, and thought about whether to buy a bigger fish basket next time she went to the market.
"Just now my mother came over and brought me some seeds, we planted some melons today, and we will be able to eat them in a few months." An Xiu'er raised her head and said to him.
"Well, it's hard for you and your mother-in-law." Zhang Zhenan said as he walked to the backyard.
He walked like the wind, extremely fast, An Xiu'er was trotted a few steps by his rhythm, and when she arrived at the hall, she stopped in front of him and pressed him on the chair with a smile, "Okay, you just sit here and rest." ”
Saying that, he took his fish basket over, and trotted to put the fish in the fish tank, as soon as the fish entered the fish tank, they swam alive, An Xiuer reached out and shook it in the water with childlike play, watching the fish swimming happily in it, and the corners of her mouth unconsciously turned up slightly.
After playing for a while, she seemed to have thought of something, turned around and walked into the kitchen, and carefully brought out a bowl of water.
Zhang Zhenan looked at the water in front of him and looked at An Xiu'er puzzled, "This is?" ”
"I made you a ginger soup." An Xiu'er pushed the soup towards him.
"Ginger soup again?" Zhang Zhen'an frowned slightly, the last time he drank the ginger soup she cooked, the choking taste, he still has palpitations, and only refused: "It's not raining today, I don't want to drink it."
"As my mother said, the river is damp, and you who often fisher, you should drink more ginger soup to ward off the cold, otherwise when you get old, your joints will hurt."
He was as afraid of hardship as a child, An Xiu'er only felt funny in her heart, so she smiled at him slightly, and coaxed: "Last time I put too much ginger, it was my fault, this time I only put a little bit, can you taste it?" ”
"Is that really all there is to it?"
Zhang Zhenan saw that the small piece she was comparing was only the width of an adult's finger, he looked at her with some suspicion, and when he saw her nodding, he withdrew his eyes, picked up the ginger soup and took a big sip.
"Poof......
As soon as the soup was in his mouth, he spit it out, wiped his mouth, took a deep breath, tried to calm himself down, and looked up at her, "Xiu'er, what did you put in this soup?" ”
Although he wanted to smile at her, but his frowning brows and Ling Yan's expression still frightened her, An Xiu'er was a little uneasy, raised her eyes and looked at him cautiously, "What's wrong?" Isn't it delicious? ”
"It's not that it's not delicious...... Zhang Zhenan raised his eyes to look at her, and saw that she was looking at herself carefully, although he didn't want to hit her, but for fear that he would have to try the soup next time, he had to say honestly: "It's too hard to drink." ”
"Is it unpleasant?" When An Xiu'er heard him say this, she laughed and said, "Good medicine is bitter and good for disease, and this medicinal soup should be a little unpalatable." ”
Seeing that he was still hesitant, she said again: "Hurry up and drink it, don't dislike it, my nephew is not afraid of taking medicine when he is seven years old." An Xiu'er looked earnest.
"Didn't you just say ginger soup? How did it become medicine now? Zhang Zhenan looked at An Xiu'er with a suspicious expression, sat upright, turned his face flat, and pretended to say coldly: "Xiu'er, tell you the truth, do you want to murder your husband, so you deliberately made such a decoction to kill me." ”
"How can you say that about me? I mean it for your good. It was a joke, but An Xiuer took it seriously, she only felt that she was wronged in her heart, and when her eyelashes rolled, she was full of tears, "In addition to ginger slices, I put wild chrysanthemums, wolfberries, and cassia seeds, all of which are good for your eyes, and I finally got them." ”
Seeing her crying, Zhang Zhenan felt as if he had committed a big crime, and hurriedly whispered: "I know you are for my good, don't cry, I just joked with you." ”
"You're not kidding, you just disliked the soup I cooked for you and suspected that I was going to poison you." An Xiu'er flattened her mouth, glanced at him, lowered her head again, and covered her mouth with a handkerchief, looking extremely sad.
"Okay, I know it's wrong." Seeing her like this, Zhang Zhenan didn't say a word, picked up the decoction on the table and drank it all in one gulp, then looked at her helplessly, and said, "Even if it's poison, I admit it, are you satisfied now?" ”
"That's not much to guess." An Xiu'er took away the handkerchief covering her face, and immediately smiled.
"Oh, I see, it turns out that you just pretended to cry, and I fell for you again." Zhang Zhenan slapped his head in annoyance.
"How can this be fooled by me? I'm really good for you, and I will often cook you such a decoction in the future. An Xiu'er put away the bowl and said with a smile.
"Once is enough, and you still have to do it often?" When Zhang Zhenan heard this, a face that had no expression all the year round trembled, and said: "I really don't need this, and I don't want you to work too hard, you can just boil water for me in the future, or just the mint tea last time, it's not bad." ”
"There will be boiling water, there will be mint tea, and there will be this decoction." An Xiu'er pursed her lips and smiled, sat opposite him again, and said, "I asked the doctor in the village, and he said that these are good for your eyes, and I will cook them for you every day in the future, and you will get used to it over time." ”
"But ......" Seeing her serious face, Zhang Zhenan felt that he couldn't think of anything to refute, so he only said: "If you have to cook it for me, can you not put ginger slices?" Or is it boiled separately? These four flavors are mixed together, and it is really a bit strange. ”
"It's okay, I cooked it for the first time today, I put more of this material, and it took a long time to cook, next time I put a little bit of it, and brew it directly with boiling water, it won't be so unpleasant." An Xiu'er replied.
"Xiu'er, you have bad intentions, do you know that you have been cooking for a long time and still want me to drink?" The more Zhang Zhen'an gets along with this little lady of his own family, he feels that she is not completely well-behaved and submissive, on the contrary, she is still a little cunning.
"Am I not afraid that you won't drink?" An Xiu'er told the truth and said, "If you don't drink, what a waste." ”
"But you're not afraid of me......"
Zhang Zhen'an opened his mouth, and wanted to say that he was stunned by the smell of this decoction, but after thinking about it, he swallowed the words again.
"What are you not afraid of?" An Xiu'er tilted her head and looked at him with a smile, her eyes shining.
