Chapter 101: Little Lock

In mid-April, in the land of Northeast China, everything began to recover, and it seemed that overnight, various wild vegetables such as small garlic, hemp cabbage, bitter hemp cabbage, mother-in-law, plantain, purslane, gray gray cabbage, etc., sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, and a piece of green and lush, making the land that had been silent for a winter become vibrant.

The women and children of Sun Aotun'er are carrying baskets, holding small hoes, digging wild vegetables all over the mountains, cabbage and potatoes have been eaten for a winter, it is rare to have fresh wild vegetables to change the taste, and do not need to spend money, who will miss this good opportunity?

And those who raise geese and ducks can also take advantage of this time to dig some wild vegetables back to feed the ducks and geese.

As for the men, they are also starting to get busy, and according to the rules, at this time of the year, they start to carry manure into the fields, plow the fields and make ridges, and prepare for the spring ploughing.

Han Mingcui also stayed in the production team every day, carefully raising the ducklings and geese under her jurisdiction, the ducklings and geese were all just out of the shell, and they couldn't go out to let them out, so they could only mix the food and feed them, and the wild vegetables that fed them were all dug up from the mountains by the children in the tun.

Digging wild vegetables for the production team is not in vain, a pound of wild vegetables to record a work, but it is not always like this, now the wild vegetables have just come out, scarce and rare, so a pound of wild vegetables can be recorded on a work, and when the wild vegetables are dense and numerous in summer, it will take seven or eight catties to record a work.

Han Mingxiu had already told the captain that she would not go to the ground this year, and digging wild vegetables would be counted as a centimeter like those children who couldn't go to the ground.

Although this practice is a bit of a suspicion of cheating, but the principle of the production team is to work more and get more, work less and get less, don't work hard, you are lazy, you will earn less work, and when you reach the end of the autumn, you will have less money and food, so no one cares if you are lazy or not, at most you laugh at you behind your back, but no one climbs.

Therefore, Han Mingxiu can choose to dig wild vegetables as she likes, and on the first day of work, she carried a small basket and a small hoe into the mountain with a group of children.

Children digging wild vegetables are generally seven or eight years old little radish heads, and even older children will not come to dig wild vegetables, they either go to school, or follow their parents to work in the field to earn more work, no one is sparse to dig wild vegetables to earn these three or two jobs.

Therefore, Han Mingxiu, a sixteen-year-old girl, is mixed with a bunch of children all day long, if she doesn't have any psychological quality, she is really embarrassed to do this!

However, not all of these children are children, among them is a teenager and a half-year-old, named Xiao Suo'er, Xiao Suo'er is eleven years old, he is dark, thin and small, and his physical strength is too poor to do the work in the field, so he came to dig wild vegetables with them.

Xiao Suo'er is a child with a hard life, when he was three years old, his mother was gone, his father married him a stepmother, the stepmother treated him very badly, every day he was beaten and scolded, and he was not allowed to eat enough, long-term abuse led to his severe malnutrition, and he was eleven years old, and he was not as tall and strong as a ten-year-old child.

However, although it is long and dry, this little lock is still very clever, and there are many ghost ideas in his heart, it is estimated that if he wasn't so clever, he would have been tortured to death by his stepmother.

Han Mingxiu had been in contact with these children for a few days, and soon targeted Xiao Suo.

She didn't want to waste a lot of time digging wild vegetables every day, she still had a lot of meaningful things to do, and after a few days of observation, she secretly found the little lock and made a deal with him.

The content of the agreement is to let Xiaosuo help her dig vegetables every day, and every time she earns two centimeters, she will give him a big cake with pure bud rice noodles to eat.

Xiao Suo can't eat enough every day, and now when he heard that he could give him big cakes to eat, he suddenly agreed as if he had been beaten with chicken blood.

With someone to help, Han Mingxiu has a lot of time, and when she is not busy, she begins to plant the other four parts of the family's self-reserved land and the front and back gardens.

Her garden is very large, and the front and back gardens add up to half an acre of land, plus the unplanted four points of self-reserved land, there is almost an acre of land.

Han Mingxiu planted potatoes on the two points of land that the team gave them that were not very good, and planted buds on the other two points, although there are still a lot of buds in her space, but there are so many livestock at home, they must be fed with buds, if everyone sees that she doesn't grow buds and raises her livestock so well, they will definitely be suspicious of her.

Therefore, in order not to be suspected, she had to plant two points of bud rice, which can be regarded as planting for others to see.

The front and back gardens were also planned by her, and all the vegetables were planted, not a single grain was planted.

In this era of grain, many villagers' gardens grow grain, leaving only a small piece of land to grow some greens, but Han Mingxiu did the opposite, a huge former garden, all planted by her, there are spinach, coriander, celery, stinky vegetables, leeks, radishes and other green leafy vegetables; There are also peppers, eggplants, squash, sherry red, ginger thorns, mustard greens, tomatoes, etc., she planted some vegetable seeds that she could find, but also for a more abundant dinner table in the future!

The eldest sister has no opinion at all about her behavior of planting vegetables and not growing food, and the eldest sister thinks that she planted so many vegetables in order to send them to Uncle Gao and Aunt Gao in the future, so not only did she not object, but also supported and encouraged!

The back garden is much simpler, she planted two rows of sunflowers along the four walls, and planted beans, loofahs, tank beans, carob melons or cucumbers in the middle of each two sunflowers, so that she didn't have to bother to build a frame for these creeping plants, and when they began to climb the vines, just climb up the sunflower poles, killing two birds with one stone.

In addition, in the inner circle of the two rows of sunflowers, she also planted a circle of sweet rods, this circle of sweet rods is purely for the two little nephews and daughters, the children of this era are not better than the future generations, children usually have no snacks to eat, plant some sweet rods and sweet mouths for them, it can be regarded as adding a sweet taste to their childhood!

These three circles of sunflowers and sweet stalks are tall and large crops, and when they all grow, they will be enough to block the view of others from prying into her back garden.

She plans to use the back garden mainly for breeding, when the time comes, chickens, ducks and geese are full of gardens, afraid of being seen red, so deliberately plant some tall crops and then block the sight of others, so there is no need to be afraid of being seen by others The things she raised are red.

Except for the sunflowers and sweet poles, the middle part of the back garden was all planted by her with sweet potatoes.

Sweet potato is a common food in daily life, which is rich in starch, dietary fiber, carotene and various vitamins and minerals, and has great edible value; Moreover, sweet potato also has the functions of preventing cardiovascular, anti-diabetic, preventing emphysema, anti-cancer, losing weight, delaying aging, longevity and beauty, etc., and is a very healthy food.

In her previous life, she loved sweet potatoes very much, and this life is the same, so she wants to have a variety of varieties.
