Chef Han who hurriedly walked in looked at Xing Rui carrying a basket in one hand and holding Xing Zihe in the other, and asked,
"Are you going to pick wild vegetables?"
"Oh, yes, is something wrong, Brother Han?"
Chef Han nodded and said,
"I found the rice grower and brought the rice seedlings. The ground was dug according to his instructions, and all the seedlings were inserted into the ground tomorrow."
"Brother Han, you are very fast!"
Xing Rui looked at Chef Han in surprise. Xing Rui liked this resolute and resolute character.
"Well, we don't plant much. We just try to see if we can grow that one."
As he spoke, he looked into the room and then asked,
"Is Liang Sheng here?"
"He went to the mountains to pull firewood. Isn't it going to rain? We didn't have any dry firewood at home, so he went to the mountains to pull firewood."
"Oh, okay, Xing Rui wants to ask you something."
Xing Rui nodded and Chef Han continued,
"There are not many literate people in the village, so you ask Liang Sheng to finish his work and go to my house.
The master I invited will see everyone finish planting the rice seedlings and then leave tomorrow. We won’t be able to remember some of the later cultivation.
Isn’t this Liang Sheng who knows how to write? Can you please come over and ask the master to memorize it?”
"Oh, ok, okay, people in the village can grow rice in the future. This is what they should do. I'll let him go when he's done."
"Okay, thank you both."
Xing Ruixiao,
"Brother Han, you are so polite. This is what you should do."
Xing Rui watched Chef Han leave, then pulled Xing Zihe towards the mountain.
From a distance, I saw Liang Sheng carrying dry firewood to the car. Xing Rui hadn't spoken yet, but Xing Zihe shouted.
"Dad, Chef Han came to see you at home just now."
Xing Rui stroked the little guy's head, looked at Liang Sheng who stopped and looked towards them and told what happened.
"Oh, okay, I understand."
"Mom, the sweet potato skin is on the hillside on the river bed. Let's go quickly."
Xing Zihe took Xing Rui's hand and ran towards the river bed, and soon saw patches of black, fungus-like things covering a large area in the sandy grass.
"Ah……"
Seeing so much, Xing Rui also smiled.
"There are so many, take them back, it's enough to last for a few days."
"Mom, do we want to take all these back?"
Xing Zihe felt a little worried, how could he and his mother finish picking such a large piece.
"Silly boy, I'm just kidding you. I can't finish all this. I just need to make some to stew with tofu.
Things grow here, and we can come and pick them whenever we want to eat them.”
The two women did not dare to waste time, so they both squatted down and started picking.
The skill of picking sweet potato skins is very important. Xing Zihe has come to pick it many times every year during this season over the years.
In terms of skills, he is richer than Xing Rui.
First of all, don't be in a hurry when handling this thing. Handle it gently, otherwise you will accidentally pick up the soil from the ground.
When you pick it up, try to remove as many fine grass leaves as possible.
This is just picking. When the picking is almost complete, you still have to wash yourself in the river.
Because no matter how careful you are, dirt will still be brought to the sweet potato skin,
There are so many finely chopped grass leaves that it takes many times to rinse them with river water before they can be cleaned.
So eating this food is really a laborious task. In the past, Xing Zihe would wash it by himself at the river and take it home.
Now think about how dangerous it would have been for Zihe to stand alone by the river at that time and wash these things.
It's a pity that the stupid mother at that time was completely unaware of the danger of this kind of thing, but now Xing Rui will not let her children take this risk.
He kept picking like this until half the basket was full. Xing Rui stood up and looked at Xing Zihe who was still picking on the ground and smiled and said,
"Zihe, that's enough. Let me take a shower and then we'll go back."
"oh,"
Xing Zihe threw the sweet potato peels in his hand into the basket. He wanted to say that he could wash it, but he remembered that his mother would not let him go to the river, so he did not dare to speak.
"Follow mom, wash your hands, and when your dad comes, follow him back."
"I'll help dad push the car."
The little thing said very sensibly, Xing Rui went down the hillside and picked up Zihe.
There were some large smooth stones on the river bank. Xing Rui found a fairly flat one and stood on it.
After washing the little guy's hands first, she started to wash the dishes.
Unexpectedly, Xing Rui was shocked as soon as the basket was placed in the water. She saw two large catfish crawling on the water plants on one side.
If the black backs had not been bent down like this, their shadows would not have been noticed at all.
Ah……
Xing Rui chuckled lightly, stretched out a finger to Xing Zihe beside him and said,
"Son, don't talk. There are fishes. Mom, go catch them. Just stand here and don't move."
Hearing his mother say there were fishes in the water, Xing Zihe was so frightened that he immediately began to breathe cautiously.
Just watch Xing Rui slowly take off her clothes and pour all the sweet potato peels in the basket on top.
She will use the basket in her hand to catch these two big catfish.
Xing Rui took a look, and decided to walk upstream and quietly circle around, catching the two big catfish in one basket without warning.
After getting up, she gave Xing Zihe another silent gesture, then walked around behind Zihe and went up the slope.
After walking some distance upstream, she clearly saw a shallow water area and went into the water.
The water by the river is not very deep, just up to the bend of the thigh. If you walk towards the center of the river, it will probably be as deep as one person.
They all looked dark and dizzy.
Just as the people on Xing Rui's side were about to go down into the river, Liang Sheng walked over from above and opened his mouth to shout.
"I saw fish."
Xing Rui was so angry that she gave him a fierce roll of the eyes and gestured to him under her breath, "Don't shout."
This guy stopped shouting and ran down the slope. He was still very tiptoeing and didn't make a sound.
Looking at the clothes Xing Rui had taken off on the ground, there were a bunch of sweet potato peels on them, then he looked at his son, leaned over and asked him in a low voice,
"Son, did your mother see the fish?"
"father"
Xing Zihe's whole little body seemed to have been enchanted. He stood there motionless and said in a very low voice,
"Mom, please don't speak loudly, it will scare away the fish."
"Oh, dad knows."
As soon as Liang Sheng heard about the fish, he became a little excited for no reason. He looked towards Xing Rui who had already entered the water,
With a breath, his face turned red.
Just look at Xing Rui who had taken off her long gown and was now wearing a small gown.
With a thin layer on the waist, something that was about to come out immediately flew into Liang Sheng's eyes.
The more flustered he became, the more restlessly his eyes looked towards Xing Rui.
Fortunately, all Xing Rui's thoughts were on the fish in the river, and she didn't see his greedy eyes at this time.
There was no need for Xing Zihe to remind him now. Liang Sheng was already so panicked that he didn't even dare to breathe heavily.
Xing Rui moved almost bit by bit, but she didn't dare to make too much noise.
Seeing that she was about to reach the two big catfish, she slowly bowed down with excitement and put the basket in her hand into the water.
