Chapter Eighty-Six: Picking

Seeing that Grandpa Liu hadn't come back yet, and he had already promised He Ziyi to send a batch of fruits and vegetables.

So, Ye Xuanxuan went to the kitchen, and the medicine happened to be fried. She asked Ye Erya to take the medicine to her father, and then brought a message to her, naturally saying that she was going out to pick wild vegetables. She herself went to the utility room to put away the money, took out all the sacks, and took the basket.

After the three of them were busy with what they were doing, Ye Xuanxuan took her sister and younger brother with a basket on her back and set off to Qixian Mountain.

There are a lot of things to pick this time, Ye Xuanxuan arranged for Ye Erya to pick vegetables, and put one variety together. I went to pick cucumbers, peppers or something, and Ye Baoer took her knife to get watermelons, winter melons, pumpkins, melons, grapes, etc. All she needs to do is cut off and clean up when she's done. Ye Baoer's work is naturally relatively easy, and it is also fast.

I picked two sacks of cucumbers, peppers, eggplants, tomatoes, etc., and Ye Erya also picked a bag and a half of various vegetables. As for Ye Bao'er, there are even more, there are melons and fruits to pick up everywhere. Ye Xuanxuan took the bag and began to load it, and Ye Baoer and Ye Erya pulled the bag. After a while, two sacks of winter melon, pumpkin, and watermelon were each packed, a big bag of melons. There are not so many grapes, and Ye Xuanxuan didn't let him pick too much, so he had to keep some to eat, and all the grapes were only picked in half a sack.

Looking at so many fruits and vegetables, Ye Xuanxuan wasn't sure if the cow could pull it, but she didn't know if these were enough.

So I took another bag and picked some peas, beans, green onions, wild garlic and wild celery. Not only that, but she also filled two bags full of potatoes.

She walked towards the fruit tree beside her, and there was a lot of fruit in this area, pears and peaches.

However, since no one came here, the growth was very good, and no one had picked it, so the branches were bent.

Fortunately, this is the case, and the height of three people can be picked up with the same height as children.

Ye Xuanxuan took the bag and asked her sister and brother to help, and the three of them picked two bags of pears, apricots, and peaches and stopped to rest.

Looking at the fat bulging sacks all over the ground, Ye Xuanxuan thought, how can these be enough!

The three of them were so tired that they counted them at random, and there were a total of sixteen hemp bags! Looking at it, she also had a headache, Ye Xuanxuan beckoned her younger brothers and sisters to help drag these to the foot of the mountain.

After doing this, the three sisters and brothers are so tired that they will lie down. The three of them sat on the floor, and after resting for half an hour, they took some vegetables and put them in the basket and went home.

When she arrived home, Grandpa Liu sat at home waiting for her.

"Big girl, everything has been bought, you can clean up after yourself!" As he spoke, he pointed to the things in the yard and handed her the remaining hundreds of dollars.

Ye Xuanxuan smiled and nodded and took it, and thanked it again. Seeing that Grandpa Liu was also tired, he asked him to go back, and let him come back after noon or a lunch break, and he was naturally embarrassed to let him pull the goods at this time.

Ye Erya went to clean up the things in the yard, and Ye Xuanxuan was also very satisfied when she looked at it.

Grandpa Liu helped them buy a lot, six pork ribs, two big stick bones, and three or four catties of pork belly. In the other bamboo cage, there should be pigeons, and you can hear the cooing sound.

Ye Erya took the meat to the kitchen, and put the cage containing the pigeon next to the chicken coop, and then went to clean up the vegetables that he brought back from the mountain before.

It's not too early, and Ye Xuanxuan and Ye Baoer also helped.

At noon, I still make multigrain rice, but there are a lot of dishes. A stir-fried pork belly with chili, a fried tomato with eggs, a roasted pork ribs with wild garlic and a vegetarian stir-fried wild vegetables. In addition, Ye Youfu made a sick meal: a plate of braised pork, a wild celery scrambled egg, a small pot of stewed pigeon soup and half a bowl of pork ribs.

After the meal was ready, Ye Xuanxuan took a bowl and spread some wild vegetables on top of it, and asked Ye Baoer to send it to Grandpa Liu's house.

Grandpa Liu's family has only one grandson who depends on him for his life, and in the early years, Grandpa Liu's daughter-in-law died of dystocia during childbirth, and his son was sad. Whenever I see my son, I think of my own lady who died due to childbirth, so I go out to work in a fit of anger, and I only come back once or twice a year. Grandpa Liu is also older, and his family has two acres of land, and he will come out to pull a cart when he is not working, and his son will bring some silver back every year, but it is really not much. The life of the grandfather and grandson was also hard, so Ye Xuanxuan asked Ye Baoer to send a bowl.

After sending Ye Bao'er out, Ye Xuanxuan took a wooden tray, loaded it with vegetables and sent a bowl of rice to Ye Youfu's room. Now that Ye Youfu's right hand is also in his hand, he can't exert his strength for the time being, and he has to keep it, so he can only be fed by his family. However, Ye Xuanxuan, who was thinking about things while walking, thought of a question, if the Lu family would not come, what should Ye Youfu do when it is convenient to wash? With such an idea, after Ye Xuanxuan fed her father, she hurriedly took a few mouthfuls at random and went out.

She didn't know that this meal was the best Ye Youfu had since Yu's death.

Although I heard from my eldest daughter that she sold a lot of wild vegetables, it is estimated that there will not be a few dollars left after eating it like this. Ye Youfu felt annoyed for a while, blaming himself for being useless, blaming himself for not being able to let the child live a good life, and spending the child's hard-earned money.

However, these entanglements and distress in his heart, Ye Xuanxuan didn't know at all. Because there were so many things, she didn't take these things to heart.

This time she went to Aunt Zhao's house next door, and only Aunt Zhao, who was nearby, could help. Grandpa Liu is too old to ask him to take care of his father, and a middle-aged man may not be able to support him as an old man.

Ye Xuanxuan dragged her legs to Zhao's house, and she didn't bother anymore, and knocked directly on the courtyard door of her house.

"Why is there a **** at this time?" There was a male voice speaking in the door, and it was not difficult to hear what looked like Uncle Zhao's voice.

"Eat yours, I'll open the door." Immediately, Aunt Zhao replied neatly.

The courtyard door opened with a creak, probably not expecting Ye Xuanxuan to come to her house at noon, Aunt Zhao was slightly stunned when she saw that it was actually the Ye family girl next door outside the door, and then immediately smiled and beckoned her to come into the house to sit. Ye Xuanxuan smiled apologetically and said, "Aunt Zhao, I'm really sorry to disturb you at this time." So saying, he followed her into the courtyard.

"Uncle Zhao" Ye Xuanxuan saw Uncle Zhao sitting and eating in the yard, their kitchen was on the edge of the courtyard gate, and when the weather was good, most of the villagers said that they liked to sit and eat in the yard with a bowl, chatting at will while eating.

As soon as he heard it and looked at the person next door, Uncle Zhao nodded hesitantly and said hello.

"Okay, don't call you uncle, he's just a piece of wood." Aunt Zhao smiled heartily as she spoke, and moved a small stool for Ye Xuanxuan to sit in the courtyard, and the two talked.

As soon as Ye Xuanxuan sat down, she spoke: "I came here this time to ask Uncle Zhao for help." After speaking, he looked at Aunt Zhao and glanced at Uncle Zhao again.

Although I don't understand what I can help this little girl, Uncle Zhao is also honest: "If the girl has something, tell me directly!" As long as Uncle can help. ”
