Chapter 526: Harvesting Autumn Vegetables

Xu Haiyuan entered the door later than his younger siblings, because they didn't get the first place in their class, and the teacher left homework for the students normally.

The fourth grade is naturally different from the second grade, and the teacher leaves a lot of homework for the children during the five-day vacation.

"What is this for? Picking vegetables? ”

As soon as Xu Haiyuan entered the door, he saw his grandmother leading his younger brothers and sisters to work in the vegetable garden, and hurriedly asked.

"Our grandmother said that it may be necessary to change the weather to cool down, and we must pick these vegetables and take them home to put them, so as not to freeze them due to frost and not be able to eat them."

Xu Jinping replied while picking chili peppers.

"Oh, I'll help too, and I'll change my clothes later."

When Xu Haiyuan heard this, he didn't go to his master to study, he went to change his clothes first, and hurriedly helped pick vegetables.

Zhou Guilan led the children to pick beans, cucumbers and peppers in the front yard, and Xu Chenghou shaved celery root and devil ginger in the back garden.

The devil ginger is also called the frost flower, and it is said that the devil ginger blooms for eighteen days and then frosts.

The underground tubers of devil ginger, pickled pickles are delicious and particularly crispy.

Farmhouse, every autumn is like this, all kinds of food can be pulled home.

Pickle everything that should be pickled and save it for winter and spring to eat slowly.

At ten o'clock in the morning, the concert ended, and the children were busy in the vegetable garden for an hour.

Zhou Guilan saw that it was not early, so she hurried back to the house to cook, and Xu Haiyuan continued to work.

When Zhou Guilan finished cooking and called the children to eat, the eggplants, peppers, tomatoes, etc. in the vegetable garden were all picked.

Baskets and baskets were sent to the warehouse and put away, slowly cleaned up, pickled what should be pickled, dried what should be dried, and kept the rest for a few days.

After lunch, Xu Haiyuan went back to his house to work.

Xu Shiyan's family has a large area, and there are more vegetables in the vegetable garden.

In addition to vegetables, there are also Xu Jinping's favorite mushrooms, grapes, sand fruits, etc., and it is best not to let the frost hit.

The mushroom girl can't eat it when it's beaten by the frost, and the grapes are better, but after being beaten by the frost, the taste is not right.

Xu Shiyan's family has planted several kinds of sand fruits, including begonia fruits that can be eaten in summer, and abacus beads and small apples that are delicious in autumn.

These have to be taken off, otherwise they won't taste good if they freeze bad.

That's enough stuff for the kids to keep them busy for a while.

In the afternoon, it was even more cloudy, and before everything could be packed up, it began to rain.

"Oh, let's hurry up, it's time to get down later."

Xu Chenghou and Zhou Guilan both sped up, and the children hurriedly carried the dishes back.

After a while, the rain fell heavily, and everyone had to run back to the house.

"Yes, if it rains today, if it is sunny tomorrow, it will be frosty the morning after tomorrow.

You're on a five-day holiday, just in time for this weather, and you can't do anything. ”

Zhou Guilan entered the house, slapped her clothes a few times, and said.

"Milk, we don't do anything, just accompany Grandma to clean up vegetables and pickles at home."

Xu Jinping's clever mouth coaxes everyone to be confused.

"Okay, okay, then we'll leave home tomorrow to clean up the pickles." Zhou Guilan really smiled happily.

I was busy for most of the day, and I finally picked everything back that should have been picked.

It was raining outside, and I couldn't do anything else, so I just picked the red peppers, threaded them up with a thread, and left them to dry.

Xu Jinping also found a needle and thread, and wore a few strings of mushroom girls.

Of course, it's the skin on the outside of the mushroom girl, so if you wear it and hang it, the skin won't be rotten, and you can eat it for a while.

In the evening, Zhou Guilan stewed potatoes with small eggplant twists to eat.

The tender eggplant is not big, it is bigger than an egg, and it is just split in two and stewed with meat, and the taste is good.

The children were busy for a long time, and they didn't miss this meal in the evening, so they felt that the stewed tender eggplant was fragrant.

The rain didn't last long, it stopped in the evening, and the temperature outside dropped suddenly, and it was cold and swishing.

When Yang Junxian came to pick up Yang Haoyu in the evening, Zhou Guilan was afraid that the child would be cold, so she specially found a thick dress for the child to wrap around.

"If you two are too busy to take care of the children, it's the same if you let him live here."

Zhou Guilan is now completely hurting Yang Haoyu as if he were his own grandson.

Yang Jun appeared to be the secretary of Dongshen Village, and he was busy at this time in autumn, and the village had to collect tasks and calculate various expenses.

And his family also planted a mallet, to make ginseng and goods, this autumn is very busy, the two of them really can't take care of the children.

Yang Junxian's father was sick the year before last, and was taken to the city by his third sister to raise him and was not at home.

Some time ago, Yang Junxian's mother also went to the city, and no one cared about Yang Haoyu at all.

So Yang Haoyu didn't go home when he didn't go to class in the afternoon, and stayed at Xu's house.

"Thank you, auntie, hey, this autumn is really busy.

If there is no aunt to help take care of our family Xiaoyu, this child will not know what to become in the autumn. ”

Yang Junxian had no choice but to express his gratitude to Zhou Guilan.

"Since the child went to school, I've been on the aunt's side, oops, I don't know how to thank the aunt and the uncle."

"Look at you, just say those foreign words, isn't Xiao Yu the son of Shiyan and his family?

It's like your own children. Zhou Guilan smiled.

Yang Junxian wrapped his son in a thick coat, then carried his son to the bicycle, and then rode his son home.

Zhou Guilan watched Yang Junxian's father and son leave, turned around and entered the house, and began to chatter.

"Oh, I don't care about anything when I'm busy with them.

Our two are too, and they haven't come back yet. ”

Xu Shiyan was still busy processing goods at the venue, and as for Su Anying, he led people to pick grades and pack boxes.

At the beginning, I received an order of 2,500 catties, and in the past two days, two more customers called to order.

So in the past few days, Su Anying has taken Huang Shengli and their daughter-in-law to the market to catch goods, and came back to pick up grades and pack, and they are busy every day.

"What's not hard to make money? It's good to be busy, and if you're busy, it means that you have money to earn.

We can't do anything, so we just serve the children. Xu Chenghou can see it.

The son and daughter-in-law are now spreading the stall so big, they can't help anything else, and taking good care of the child is better than anything else.

"Yes, let's not think about anything, just take good care of the children.

That day, the third child also asked me if I wanted to open a store or something, there were two houses left in the north.

I told him, forget it, it's too busy.

We have food and drink now, what are we doing with all that? ”

Zhou Guilan nodded, when you are old, don't think about what to do if you are competitive, let's take good care of your grandchildren.

"Yes, it's right to think so, we're all this age, what are you doing with that?

It's good to take care of a few children.

My son and daughter-in-law are all busy working outside, so let's take care of the family and cook the house, so that they can have a hot meal when they come home, which is good. ”

Xu Chenghou has no other thoughts now, as long as his son and grandson are good, he is better than anything else.

While the old couple was chattering, Zhou Guilan put the food in the pot, then scooped out the hot water and beckoned the children to wash their feet.

Before eight o'clock, the children were sleepy, so they coaxed them to sleep.

It was past nine o'clock, Xu Shiyan and Su Anying entered the house, neither of them had dinner, and they were so hungry that they finished eating and resting.
