"There's nothing you want to eat, our family is good, and you can eat meat once in a while. You can do whatever you want, big sister, you don't have to think too hard. That spicy cabbage is delicious, and I'll be able to eat enough with it. Yun Zhen thought about it, but he didn't come up with what to eat. A few of them always went up the mountain the other day, and although there were fewer prey, they could still harvest a little. You can eat meat at home, so it's really not too gluttonous.

On the contrary, the spicy cabbage pickled by Yunxue this year has been pickled thoroughly, and it is much better than when they ate Baozhu that day. These children, in order to grab spicy cabbage to eat, sometimes they can almost fight.

The spicy cabbage pickled by Yunxue tastes much better than the one sent by Aunt Zheng. She added pear and hawthorn to the seasoning, and the fruity aroma of these two things blended perfectly with the flavors of chili, ginger and garlic. Spicy with sweet and sour, and a fruity aroma. Coupled with the moderate saltiness, it tastes like I can't stop, and I can't wait to eat two more bowls of rice than usual.

"You guys, it's not a good thing, why do you love it so much?" Yun Xue couldn't help laughing when she heard this, these little guys actually like pickles. "Okay, then the eldest sister will go and fish some out, and get some cakes at night, and the big guy will eat some."

Nowadays, many families have begun to drink only porridge at night. It's not that there will be no food to eat right away, but people are used to saving it, and they don't work at this time, so they eat too much and waste it. Yun Xue didn't do that, when all the children in the family were growing up, if they were allowed to drink porridge at night, they would wake up hungry in the middle of the night. So Yunxue still steams the cakes at night, but now there will be some sweet potatoes or something in the cakes. Sweet potato cubes or pumpkin cubes will also be placed in the porridge, so that some food can be saved. There are so many sweet potatoes planted at home, it would be a pity not to eat them.

Dinner was corn porridge with pumpkin pieces, sorghum flour and sweet potato flour. There are also pickles, as well as radish cubes with dipping sauce and Chinese cabbage stewed vermicelli. After the meal came out of the pot, only the red charcoal fire was left in the stove pit, and Yun Xue casually threw a few sweet potatoes into it and buried them under the charcoal fire.

"Okay, clean up, wash your hands and eat," Yun Xue shouted.

The children all came to help clean up the table, and after not sleeping much, all the food was served, and the big ones began to eat. Originally, they all made some food for Yunxia alone, but later Yunxia saw that what she ate was different from everyone's, so she had to eat with everyone. Yun Xue couldn't help it, so she didn't do it alone anymore. I just occasionally get some delicious food, and the big guys eat it together.

The children ate very deliciously, and in a short time they were all full. Yun Xue looked at her younger siblings, her heart was inevitably sour, if the year was good, she really wouldn't just get these for her younger siblings to eat. "We all have to save a little now, and when we wait for the Chinese New Year, the eldest sister will definitely make food for you every day."

It's all such a custom here, and on normal days, the big guys are very sorry to live. When it comes to the Chinese New Year, no matter how poor the family is on weekdays, they must also get more delicious food. That's why children are looking forward to the New Year, and they can eat good things that they can't usually eat.

"Eldest sister, let's eat cakes at night. Many people start eating two meals now, and they still drink porridge in the evening. When I was in the school, my classmates said that I could wake up hungry in the middle of the night. Yun Ting touched his stomach and said very satisfied.

"That's right, eldest sister, you don't have to be sad, it's all like this now, it's already rare that our family doesn't starve. We are all content, and the eldest sister doesn't have to take it to heart. In fact, our family just eats better, and it's not that we can't afford to eat, but that's not just the time of life, and good people don't live like that. Yun Zhen also smiled and comforted Yun Xue.

Yun Xue sighed, "There's really no way, it's just such a year, no one can do it." This is still the imperial court is exempt from taxes, otherwise, I'm afraid the big guy will have to starve now. When the other side of the river can stop making trouble, our life can be good. I just don't know if the court will pay attention to it. ”

The atmosphere in the room was a little heavy, and at this time, Xiao Yunxia climbed onto Yun Xue's lap and reached out to rub Yun Xue's frowning brow. "It's ugly."

Yun Xue couldn't help laughing, thanks to the treasure Yunxia at home, otherwise, this day would be really difficult.

The boys went back to the Westinghouse to study, and Yun Ting got up, and Yun Thunder and Yun Zhentianfu read it out together. In the small farmhouse, the sound of reading wafted out. Yun Xue and Yun Ni were in the East House, listening to the voice of the West House, and couldn't help laughing.

"Eldest sister, don't take your heart too seriously. Our family is now more than less than the top, and it is very rare. At least we are no longer bullied, and a family that loves each other is better than anything else. Yun Ni took Yun Zhen's ragged clothes in his hand and sewed and mended them.

Yun Xue held the sole of her shoe in her hand and took it stitch by stitch. There were no candles in the house, just a bright one, which is something on the mountain, so you don't have to spend money to buy it. However, there is a disadvantage, that is, if Mingzi is lit, a large amount of black ash will be generated, and it is easy to blacken the house. However, the Yunxue sisters are very diligent and often clean the house, but they are not very dirty.

"Well, I know that sometimes I feel like I'm too useless to make your life better." Yun Xuena's soles are very fast, her hands are strong, and the thread is tight, so the soles are stronger.

Yunni knows that her sister has too many things on her mind, and some things have to be figured out by herself, and it is useless for others to persuade her. So I had to mend my hair, and in a short time I mended the clothes on my hands.

A sweet aroma wafted into the room, and Yunni sniffled, "Sister, are you burning sweet potatoes again?" ”

Yun Xue remembered the sweet potato she had buried in the fire, and hurriedly went down to the ground to take a look. "Well, I buried a few sweet potatoes in the stove pit just now, and they are easy to get hungry at night, so it's good to eat a little pad." Yun Xue put on her shoes and went to the kitchen.

The aroma in the kitchen was stronger, and Yun Xue used a burning stick to remove the ashes in the stove pit and pull out the sweet potatoes inside. This sweet potato is just right to burn, the skin is slightly mushy on the outside, but the inside is ripe. Yunxue got all the sweet potatoes out and cooled them. "Yunzhen, Tianfu, come and eat sweet potatoes." Yun Xue shouted.

As soon as the boys in the Westhouse heard that they were eating sweet potatoes, they all ran out. Boys, when they are all growing up, feel hungry not long after eating. Not to mention, it's been more than an hour since they've finished eating, and they really feel a little craving to eat at this time.

Everyone took the sweet potato and peeled off the skin on the outside, revealing the yellow flesh on the inside. Yun Xue's favorite food is the mushy place, she just peeled off the thin skin on the outside, and then gnawed on the mushy inside.

"The sweet potatoes are still burned and fragrant, but they are not fragrant when steamed." Everyone said this while munching on sweet potatoes.

"In a few days, when our family burns the stove, we will cook sweet potato slices on the stove and eat them. It's better to eat that way. Yun Xue smiled.

The children's eyes widened, "Sister, can sweet potatoes still be eaten like that?" "In the past, there was little land at home, and I never planted sweet potatoes at all, but others occasionally sent some, and they were all steamed and eaten, and the children really didn't have a chance to try other methods.

"Yes, it's not cold for a while, but when it's cold for a while, you have to burn the stove at home. When the time comes, the eldest sister will roast and eat for you. Yun Xue smiled. There are sweet potatoes at home, but they are just coaxing their younger siblings to play.

The snow was still falling outside, the north wind was howling, and in the small courtyard of the farmhouse, the children were holding hot sweet potatoes and eating them very sweetly.

This snow finally stopped. The next morning, it was a lot cold outside, Yun Xue pushed open the door, and saw a white expanse outside, and the snow on the ground was about half a foot deep. After the heavy snowfall, the air was cold and fresh, Yun Xue took a deep breath, and felt very comfortable in her heart.

"Sister, you don't wear more clothes, beware of catching a cold. I'm going to clear the snow, so you might as well go back to the house. Yun Zhen also got up, he was already fully dressed, with boots on his feet, and went out to get a broom and start clearing the snow.

Yun Xue turned around and went into the kitchen to light the fire, and at this time, the children in the family got up one after another. The boys got dressed and went out to boxing, which was something they had to do every day, and when they got up in the morning, they had to squat and practice boxing for an hour.

Yun Xue scooped the corn ballast and poured it into the pot, adding a lot of water to the pot. The fire under the pot was boiling vigorously, and slowly the water boiled. Yun Xue took out a few sweet potatoes and peeled them, washed them with water, and cut them into small pieces with a knife. The porridge pot was boiled, Yun Xue poured the sweet potato pieces into it and stirred it with a spoon. Don't look at adding so many sweet potatoes, you can save a lot of food every day.

Two pots, one to cook porridge, the other to heat the cakes and vegetables. I did a lot last night, so I don't have to bother in the morning. If the weather is warm, Yunxue will heat the cakes directly on the porridge pot. At this time, it was already cold, and how much fire was needed, and there was also firewood at home, but Yunxue didn't care about this. Burn a little more, and your home will be warm.

Yunxia got up the latest, and after Yunni went out to punch, she came back just in time to dress Yunxia. The boys punched outside a few more times before they went inside to eat.

"Eldest sister, I may have to go to Shanchangzi in a few days. Today, Tianfu and I went to the county seat to see if we could buy some food and come back. While eating, Yun Xue said this.

"Okay, let's go and see, it won't be long before the new grain comes down at this time, maybe there will be food to buy. Let's prepare a little more, let's live, it's good to be prepared. "Yun Xue is really uncertain, who knows what will happen in the future? I still have some money at home, so I might as well prepare some food and come back. Don't panic when you have food in your hand.
