Chapter 14 Digging Wild Vegetables

***

Xu Zhang took a nap.

First, I cared about Xu Jiaojiao's physical condition and told me that if I was hungry, I would ask Yuanshi to fry wild vegetable pancakes for her.

Then, my heart was also aching, and my meat was so painful that I picked up a few eggs, a few fruits and melons, and two kilograms of cornmeal were packed in a basket, and I went to the adjacent Liaojia Village.

...

***

In the season when there is no connection between the green and yellow, every household in the village cannot eat enough, and basically they have to go into the mountains to dig some wild vegetables and roots to eat.

For families like Lao Xu's family, they have two meals a day, which is pretty good.

Some families only eat one meal a day, but when they are so hungry, they can only go into the mountains to find food.

However, the ingredients on the mountain are limited, and only those places that can be entered are in those places. Some wild vegetables and fruits that are easy to collect have been pulled out long ago. Only when you have good luck can you find something that others miss.

If you are not lucky, you will return empty-handed.

So usually, children are fine, so they go into the mountains to dig vegetables.

If you can't dig, it won't delay your family's work.

Yuan took over Xu Zhang's task and wanted to make wild vegetable cakes for Xu Jiaojiao, so he asked Sanya to go up the mountain to dig wild vegetables.

When Xu Jiaojiao saw it, she immediately became warm and insisted on going with her.

Yuanshi couldn't resist it.

In the Xu family, no one can beat Xu Jiaojiao.

Xu Jiaojiao insisted on going, and followed Erya whom she ordered, and also went with her.

Both the second and thirds of the second are going, and Silang is going to go with him, and Silang is going to go with him, and Sanlang in the second room heard it and wanted to go with him.

The old Xu family had five-person teams, carrying baskets to go up the mountain to dig wild vegetables.

It's lively.

Xujia Village is just below the foot of the mountain, and you can enter the old mountain forest within less than two miles.

The forests near Xujia Village are actually not high and flat, not the kind of mountains and steep. The more you go inside, the bigger the mountain.

Not only the old Xu family, but also the children of other families, went to dig wild vegetables in the mountains.

As soon as Saburo and Silang entered the mountain, he went wild like a wild horse that had escaped from a stagnant wild horse.

Boys generally don’t want to dig wild vegetables, they all want to go up trees and dig bird’s nests, or find a mountain stream and a small stream to catch fish and shrimp.

Xu Jiaojiao started panting as soon as she entered the mountain. Her body was so fat.

Erya took care of her and said, "Grandma, are you tired? Let's stop and take a rest."

"Not tired, Erya, what kind of wild vegetables can be eaten in the mountain?" Xu Jiaojiao wiped her sweat and said indifferently.

She entered the mountain to climb the mountain to exercise, and she also observed the surrounding environment of Xujia Village.

In order to narrow the distance between her aunt and nephew, she had a lot of family affairs with Erya and Sanya along the way.

At the beginning, Erya and Sanya were very cautious and dared not say much.

Later, seeing Xu Jiaojiao approachable and her tone was kind, she gradually relaxed her vigilance.

All the children are all around, so they are not very cautious.

Erya replied happily, "My aunt, I used to eat a lot of wild vegetables, plantains, purseria, etc., and I can find fresh mushrooms. Sometimes I have good luck and I can find pheasant eggs!"

Xu Jiaojiao looked around the dense forests, and except for the bushes, she saw no edible wild vegetables.

This road seems to have been trampled on, and people should come often.

While he was confused, Erya sighed and said, "There are very few now. As soon as the wild vegetables grow, they are dug up. They are much faster than they grow."

"Such a big mountain has been dug up all?" Xu Jiaojiao pointed casually, and it was the depths of the mountain!

Sanya said weakly, "Grandma, everyone only dares to dig outside. Who dares to go deep into the mountains? There are wild wolves, wild boars, and tigers in the mountains. Only those who know how to hunt dare to go deep into the mountains!"

Erya was afraid that Xu Jiaojiao would not believe it, so she added, "My aunt, it's true. There are wild animals that eat people in the mountains. In the villages around us, people hunt in the mountains every year to lose their lives. Last time I saw a man in Liaojia Village next door, who was lifted out of the mountains, and his arm and legs were eaten up by the beasts. He was so terrible."

Xu Jiaojiao...

It is difficult to survive such extreme medical conditions if you have broken arms and legs.

However, she had encountered species like wolves in her previous life, but she was not panicked after hearing this.

As long as she is more physically exercised, she should be able to explore the mountains.

There is probably nothing good to discover on this periphery.

If you want good things, you can only go to the mountains to see them.

Erya greeted, "Grandma, you are tired, so sit here to rest. I have found you a clean wooden stake. You sit, let's look for wild vegetables, we promise to be diligent and not lazy."

They are treating Xu Jiaojiao as supervisors.

Xu Jiaojiao didn't explain, "You guys go and do your business."

She also looked around at the environment.

As soon as the aunt and nephew dispersed, Erya found a cluster of wild mushrooms in the hole of a big tree.

Ecstatic, "My aunt, I have wild mushrooms. You can stew mushroom soup for me at night!"

There are not many wild mushrooms or big, like new ones that are emitted after the rain, and they are just a big ball of slap.

After picking it up, he waved happily to Xu Jiaojiao...

Xu Jiaojiao also curiously surrounded her and looked around, "Hey, there are still on the tree..."

Isn't it still there on the tree?!

There are several clusters of newly-haired white mushrooms, the thickness of the little finger, white, fresh and gratifying.

Erya put down the basket and said, "Sanlang, Silang is like a wild monkey, and I'm not here either. I'll go find them to climb trees to pick mushrooms. My aunt, you're resting here, Sanya, you're guarding the mushrooms here."

This tree is big and several meters tall.

Generally, only boys like to climb trees and dig bird nests, and even Erya and Sanya don’t know how to climb trees.

However, as soon as they entered the mountain, Saburo and Silang went wild with other boys, and they didn't know where to go, so they might have to find them for a while.

I was afraid that the mushrooms would be picked by the people from behind.

So, one goes to find someone, and the other stays here.

Although the two were young, the poor children had already become the family, and they had a lot of experience, so the arrangement was very thoughtful.

Xu Jiaojiao was ready to try, "No, I'll just go up and pick it."

She had the best-in-class tree climbing skills in her previous life. Now she has to work hard and should be able to climb up as she is just trying to move her muscles.

Sanya was shocked, "No, my aunt, no, I can't. If I fall down, my butt will bloom."

My aunt's body is the material for climbing trees?!

Neither of them dares to climb a tree, can their aunt go up?

My aunt can go up, and the sow can climb a tree!

Xu Jiaojiao and the two of them went out, but Xu Zhang didn't know that it was Xu Jiaojiao who insisted on it.

ps: Is anyone there! Little cuties!
