The Sweet Little Fulang - Chapter 172
Shen Yan stuffed a candied begonia fruit into her mouth. The candied candied fruit and other things were all in the light of Lu Gu and Ji Qiuyue. How could she usually eat these. As for the salted plums that Lu Gu likes to eat now, she has I don’t like to eat.
Lu Gu was also eating candied fruit, and a few people gathered around to look at the four geese in the bamboo basket. The geese were obviously bigger than the ducklings. After the yellow down feathers faded, they could grow into big white geese.
“I saw someone carrying a load to sell, so I bought four and came back, and raised them together with the ducks. It’s not too late to separate when they are older.” Although Wei Lanxiang rode a mule cart all the way, the sun tanned her face. I was sweating, and it was still hot for a while, so I took out a handkerchief from my arms and wiped my face.
On the other side, Shen Yaoqing was washing his hands when he heard the words: “It’s better to raise them together, you don’t have to feed them separately. After I’m done with this, I’ll put a fence around them. The duck house is big enough, and they can rest together at night, so there’s no need to make another goose. Abandon.”
Da Bai also came over and looked into the bamboo basket. The two puppies had grown up and taller than before, but they were not as long as the slender dog’s legs. Trying to stick his head in the basket.
The bamboo basket swayed, Wei Lanxiang waved his hand to drive away the dog cubs, the goose cubs were bought with money, what would you do if the bamboo basket fell and hurt, she quickly picked up the bamboo basket and went to the duck ring behind.
Lu Gu handed Shen Yan the oiled paper bag in the corner of his hand, which contained candied fruit. He smiled and said, “Eat more if you want.”
“Brother Guzi.” Shen Yan laughed, his almond eyes narrowed with laughter, innocent and childish.
There was nothing else to do at the moment, Lu Gu returned to the front yard chair with a candied fruit and sat down, picked up the little tiger-toed shoes in the sewing basket, and started doing it again. My son came to cook, he washed his hands and washed the vegetables, and then he fed the dogs and livestock, and he could also help the family. I didn’t need to worry about other things. I took a few stitches while I had time. not very convenient.
The little clothes that Zhaoer had when she was just born are no longer worn. They were all new clothes. They didn’t wear them for a long time, but they kept them all the time, just enough for him to wear them in his stomach. Shen Xuanqing’s first child, when Eminem’s, naturally wanted to make two new clothes for her child.
“Brother Millet, I’ll put the fruit here for you, and I’ll go to the field with my mother first.” Shen Yan followed him over to sit down, ate two candied fruits, and heard Wei Lanxiang calling her from the back, so she quickly got up and took the The oiled paper bag is placed on the chair.
“Okay, you go, what do you want to eat at night?” Lu Gu looked up and asked her.
Shen Yan paused, thought for a moment, and then said, “We can’t cut spring chives in our vegetable field. It’s early in the morning. How about calling A-sister-in-law to wrap a leek and eggs for flat food? It’s time to plant seedlings tomorrow. , is a work of strength.”
What she said was reasonable. The paddy fields are well taken care of today, and it is time to plant rice seedlings early in the morning. It is really necessary to eat a good meal, and then work hard to have the strength.
“Okay, I’ll wait and cut, we’ll eat at night.” Lu Gu nodded in agreement.
Shen Yan was very happy, so he left now. Kneaded food is undoubtedly a good meal in the countryside, and sometimes it is cooked only when guests come from home.
Lu Gu finished a few stitches in his hand, and it took time to knead the noodles and chop the stuffing. He didn’t delay much. He took the sickle and went to the backyard vegetable field to cut the leeks. He even called two puppies. These big dogs, the two puppies wanted to smell everything they saw, for fear that they would spoil the candied fruit, so they were not allowed to call away.
Four rows of leeks were planted in the house, and they were lined up against the yard wall. Three of them had already been cut. Four days ago, when Shen Yaoqing was sending rabbits to the brothel, he took Wei Lanxiang to the town to sell leeks.
There are also a lot of leeks in the rest of the line. They can’t eat a few kilograms by themselves. Wei Lanxiang greeted the villagers. If you want to buy leeks, you can go to their house. They are all from the same village, so they are naturally cheaper than selling them outside. However, apart from a few families who lived fairly well, they would pay attention to eating tender spring chives. There were so many people in the village who spent money on food.
There are five people in the family. Shen Yaoqing works every day and eats a lot. Lu Gu just cut a big handful before he felt it was enough. Sit down and choose a dish.
Sister-in-law went back to her hometown to change clothes for Zhao’er and her. She would come over later. Zhao’er was urinating and pulling. This is the case with children. They often have to change their diapers and clothes. Fortunately, it is warm today, and Zhao Er has enough clothes, so that there are not too many clothes to change.
The leek had a strong smell, so Xiao Huang stopped leaning forward after smelling it a few times, and instead played and fought with Huang Er.
Listening to their movements, Lu Gu was a little distracted, thinking that Shen Xuanqing had been up the mountain for six days, and he didn’t know when he would come back.
While thinking about it, Ji Qiuyue came over with Zhao’er on her back. She didn’t see Lu Gu in the front yard. She saw that there was an oiled paper bag on the chair. Seeing that it was a candied crabapple, she squeezed one and contained it. As soon as she came in, she found Lu Gu. Gu Zai chose leeks and said with a smile, “Want to eat leeks?”
Lu Gu’s thoughts were interrupted, and when he turned his head, he saw Zhao’er behind her showing half of her face, her eyebrows raised, and she said, “Yanyan said that she wanted to eat leeks and eggs at night, so she chose the vegetables earlier in the morning.”
“I want to eat flat food.” Ji Qiuyue heard this and said, “That’s fine, I’ll pack more. I have to go to the ground tomorrow morning. It can be eaten as breakfast when it’s hot. It’s better than eating steamed buns.”
Lu Gu replied, “I’ve cut a lot, it’s definitely enough.”
Ji Qiuyue saw that there were so many leeks in the bamboo basket, and it was indeed enough, so she rolled up her sleeves and said, “Then I’ll go and make noodles first.”
The two of them were busy with their own division of labor, and they were both used to doing their work, and their hands and feet were naturally quick. After Shen Yan came back from the ground, he really ate flat food.
Don’t talk about feeding the dogs when the farming is busy. Sometimes people don’t even care about eating. There are so many livestock at home. Fortunately, Lu Gu is at home. Let him go, he will take care of the livestock, feed the dogs and cook along the way.
Zhao’er sometimes sleeps a little longer in the morning. When such a small child wakes up, it is easy to cry and cry. Last night, I thought that the big house is near the paddy fields, and it is cheap to eat and sleep. You don’t have to go through the whole village. Ji Qiuyue took her children to sleep here, and locked the courtyard door of the old house.
When Wei Lanxiang and Shen Yaoqing got up early, they couldn’t care about feeding the livestock, so they took Shen Yan to the field after breakfast, leaving Lu Gu and Ji Qiuyue busy.
When Zhaoer woke up, she cried because the adults were not around. The back yard was too big and far away. Ji Qiuyue chopped grass for chickens and ducks. She didn’t hear the child cry at first. past.
As soon as she left, Lu Gu, who had added water to the cattle and sheep, squatted down and chopped up the chicken and grass. The pig food was still cooked in the pot, but when Ji Qiuyue went to the front, it would naturally add firewood.
After three or two coaxing Zhao’er, she fed her milk again. Ji Qiuyue scooped the pig food on her back and mentioned feeding the pigs at the back.
It has been a while since they were busy. When they are not busy, Shen Yaoqing will shovel manure every day. When he is busy these days, he naturally has priorities. He is not in a hurry to shovel manure. I was pregnant, and when I entered the rabbit shack, I smelled the feces and retched. Ji Qiuyue went to feed the rabbits.
Zhao’er stopped crying, and didn’t make much noise when she was full, she just wanted someone to carry her on her back. Spring ploughing was a major event. Ji Qiuyue was concerned about the work in the fields, so she locked the courtyard door and let the three dogs watch the house. She and Lu Gu arrived. Looking at the paddy field, it was still early, and Shen Yaoqing brought a pot of water when he left.
Along the way, everyone is busy in the paddy fields. Whether men or women, they have to take off their shoes and pull up their trousers. This is the case with farmers. Who cares if the girls in the family leave the court or not when they are busy in the fields. , The feet and legs are covered with mud, and no one will stare at them except for the idle rascal with crooked eyes.
The paddy field was muddy, so they didn’t go in. Ji Qiuyue stood on the ground and shouted, “Mother, is there more water?”
Wei Lanxiang stood up straight and shouted back: “There’s more, I’ll deliver it later, don’t worry, it’s slippery here, you two go back quickly.”
There are eight acres of paddy fields. The brothers Lin Jinhu and He Zhi’s family have to work on their land before they can work. Ji Qiuyue stood on the ground and thought about it, and she came over. Zhao’er and Lu Gu were familiar with each other, so she turned to face Lu Gu. Gu said: “Gu Zi, so, take Zhao’er back, he won’t make much trouble when he’s full, just come and deliver water later.”
Shen Yan is only thirteen years old, and her work is not as good as hers. Lu Gu thinks it too. These two days have been busy, and it is better to finish the field first. If you don’t agree, he will go back to boil water with Zhao’er on his back.
A large clay pot is placed on the tandoor, and it is simmered with fine wood to get hot water. No matter how hot the weather is, drinking raw water is not good for people.
Lu Gu put his right hand behind his back and pressed Zhao’er’s legs and feet. Then he carefully bent over to add firewood to the bottom of the mud stove, and then got up and a chubby little hand around his neck was scrambling against his skin, his little finger scratching.
Zhao’er’s fingernails are short, but scratching people will still give him a little strength. Fortunately, he quickly grabbed Lu Gu’s collar again, and played with it by himself.
Lu Gu patted him with his hand behind his back and coaxed him. He wasn’t so busy at the moment, so he simply went to the yard to dig a spring vegetable. It was easy to get hungry at work. After a while, I set the pot to heat it up, and it was always warm and soft when I covered it in the pot. Yesterday, I brought the horse spoon over. As long as the mother and the others said they were hungry, they put the horse spoon on the tandoor and the vegetables were cooked. You can eat it without waiting too long.
With a doll on his back, Lu Gu was more careful than usual whether he crouched down or stood up, for fear of bumping into Zhao’er.
After he cut the spring vegetables, he cut a piece of pork, and fried the two together later. When the farming season is busy, eating some meat and vegetables, oil and water will give you strength, and your stomach will be fuller. He is planning to cook another bowl of vegetables when he suddenly remembers Ji Qiuyue hurriedly unwrapped Zhao’er’s back and took the doll to pee. Because Zhao’er was twisting around, he even cried twice. He didn’t pee well. It was peeing, otherwise they would have to change their clothes if they peed on their bodies.
In the past two days, I didn’t have time to go up the mountain to get enough toon jian’er and wild vegetable sprouts. After carrying the child again, Lu Gu went to the vegetable field to cut some leeks. The fried leeks were delicious to eat with steamed buns.
The family was busy in and out of the fields. Although the first day of spring ploughing was tiring, no one felt the pain. After the seedlings were planted, the rice was harvested in autumn.
The next afternoon, Lu Gu was preparing dinner with Zhao’er on his back when he suddenly heard Da Bai’s barking, and then there were several dog barks outside. He was overjoyed and Shen Xuanqing came back.
