An autumn rain and a cold, yesterday I was still wearing short sleeves, and the next day, as soon as I got up, I got goosebumps from the cold, and I had to start adding clothes.

On this day, it seemed that overnight, the temperature dropped by more than ten degrees, and the temperature dropped a lot, and it was still daytime, and at one or two o'clock in the morning, the temperature was even lower.

Anyway, Qin Xi got up early in the morning and was woken up coldly.

Qin Xi got up together, and when she saw that Qin Qing was still wearing the summer dress that was remade from her old clothes, she suddenly realized that she had forgotten something.

It's only late autumn now, wearing two clothes, Qin Qing can still carry it, once it is winter, with her clothes so far, she can't go out, because she doesn't have cotton clothes.

This is not good, the child still has to study! No cotton clothes to wear, what's the matter.

Qin Xi went back to the house, found a long-sleeved coat of his own, and gave it to Qin Qing: "Here, the weather is cold, a piece of clothing, it's very cold, it's not good to freeze out and catch a cold." ”

"Today, Tang Ying and I still have some business, I can't go to the county seat, tomorrow I will go to the county seat to buy some cotton and come back, and make you cotton clothes."

At present, the cloth ticket in her hand is only enough to make her a cotton coat.

"Sister, you don't need to make me cotton clothes, the clothes I'm wearing now are very good, in winter, I like the quilt and don't like to go out." Qin Qing twisted the corners of her clothes and said.

Her life is already very good now, she can eat and go to school, and she doesn't want to cause too much trouble to Sister Qin Xi.

"No, you still have to go to school!"

"Besides, in winter, you won't stay at home all the time!"

"It doesn't cost much to make a cotton coat, and besides, it's not like you won't wear it for a winter, if you wear it for a few more years, this cotton coat won't be expensive."

Seeing that Qin Qing was still unmoved, Qin Xi continued: "Don't be in a hurry to refuse, if you don't have cotton clothes, you will be frozen and cold in winter, but it will be enough to choke, and you don't know how much it will cost to see a doctor and take medicine at that time, that is to spend money to find guilt!" ”

Hearing this, Qin Qing frowned and did not refuse again.

"That's right, that's it."

After breakfast, Qin Xi originally wanted to go to Tang Ying, but he took the initiative to come.

The persimmons they brought back yesterday have not been processed, and in addition, the wild shallots they dug up before have not been washed, and they are all buried in the vegetable patch behind the house, so as to keep the wild shallots fresh and tender.

Yesterday there was a heavy rain, and Qin Xi received a lot of water, and all the water utensils and water tanks at home were full.

What I didn't finish before, I'm going to end it today, otherwise, I'll always be hanging on to my heart, and my thoughts are not clear, and it's very annoying.

"What are we going to do today?" Tang Ying asked whether to peel the persimmon skin first or wash the wild onions first.

Before, it was because of the lack of water at home that there was no action, after all, how precious water was at that time! The water is used carefully, for fear of wasting it, and it is possible to use the water that took five or six hours to pick up to wash the mud sticking to the wild onions.

It's all about using cannons to fight mosquitoes, making a big fuss.

Wild shallots are washed and dried, pickled well, put in the jar, generally speaking, about 20 days, it is already delicious, the more pickled it will be, the more sour it will be, more than a year, used to stew fish, it is simply amazing.

Tang Ying has already followed Qin Xi several times in this matter, and she has gained some experience, after all, who can make perfect.

"Let's cook the wild shallots first, it rained heavily yesterday, and if we continue to bury them in the ground, in two days, maybe they will take root and sprout."

This white and raw, even the roots of the wild shallots, chew up the taste is enough, very crisp, if it takes root and sprouts, I always feel a little worse.

The two of them were lucky enough to find this good thing before, but they couldn't waste it because they were lazy and wasted.

"Alright, we'll dig now."

As for the water, Tang Ying was not worried, since Qin Xi had already had this idea, she must have made sufficient preparations a long time ago.

Sure enough, the straw huts were filled with water.

Yesterday's heavy rain made the soil mix into a big ball, slimy, and the wild onions were naturally slightly affected, and many of them were covered with mud.

However, this idea of yellow mud can not stop the good mood of the two, after digging out, the two did not go home immediately, but went to the small ditch in front of the door, yesterday's heavy rain, so that there are still large and small mud puddles in the small ditch.

Qin Xi took a basket and put the wild onions that were pasted into a ball of mud, put the basket in the middle of the mud puddle, and scrubbed the wild onions inside, and soon, they lost their yellow temporary coats, basically returned to their previous appearance, and looked much more pleasing to the eye.

Tang Ying is cooperating on the side, she and He Yuan don't have jars, and it's not easy to put such things as jars, she works with Qin Xi, uses a jar, and when it's time to eat, just take a bowl and fill it.

After all the washing is done, after going back, Qin Xi and Tang Ying still have to sit on the small bench and wash the wild onion carefully, after all, it is the thing in the mouth, and it must be clean, otherwise they will not be able to swallow it.

After this set of operations, a morning passed.

The wild shallots were packed in a dustpan and put outside to dry, and after lunch, Qin Xi stumbled the wild shallots with salt and put them in the jar to pickle.

In the afternoon, the two began to peel persimmons.

Except for what you keep for yourself, the rest is peeled and dried in a dustpan until they are dried into persimmons.

Fortunately, now the temperature has dropped a lot, as soon as it gets dark, I feel cold all over, at this temperature, persimmons are less likely to break, although the sun during the day is not strong, but the temperature is enough.

The next day, Qin Jiang He Yuan watched persimmons at home, and Tang Ying and Qin Xi went to the black market in the county seat.

Qin Xi went to buy cloth and cotton, planning to make cotton clothes for Qin Qing, Tang Ying went to see the grain, if the price she could accept, she would buy some and bring it back, after all, she and He Yuan had not much food left, compared to being hungry, she chose the latter and spent money to fill her hungry stomach.

"Go to the supply and marketing cooperatives or go to the black market first?"

This small county, if it was left in the past, Tang Ying would definitely not be eye-catching, but now it is different, after staying in the countryside for a long time, even if it is a small county, she feels very prosperous and attractive.

It would be great if I could go back to the city again and become a city person!

Although there is no distance to Qinxi in the countryside, she misses the time when she didn't have to work and ate and drank well.

"Go to the black market first, the supply and marketing cooperatives will not run, or the black market is more likely to have accidents."

Although I was curious before, the reason for the emergence and existence of the black market in Yongxin County is not curious at all.

Maybe others will think that the price of black market things is very dark, but in Qin Xi's opinion, this is a good place, which brings her too much convenience.

If there was no black market, she couldn't imagine how miserable her life here would be.
