The buns that the three siblings ate were filled with pickles, mixed with chili oil, and of course they were delicious. The two children each had a meat bun, so they had to eat some first, and they should be home soon.
Arriving at the door of Chen Miao's house, "Third Sister, I will come to get the persimmons in a moment."
Chen Dou knew that the third sister had a lot of work to do, and the two nephews were a little tired. The third sister didn't let them sleep on the way, so there was no need to send them off when they got home.
"Okay, I'll come and get it later."
After arriving home, I made them some milk powder so that they could sleep in their own space after eating. The two children suffered a little bit today. There was no other way but to do this.
You don’t trust your child if you leave it to anyone. So you should keep it with you at all times. It will be better when you grow older.
You won't tell them about space, and you can't put them away when they are too big, so let them have the ability to protect themselves.
Chen Miao frowned. It would be great if he could find a master for his sons, so that they could practice martial arts since elementary school and strengthen their bodies. Not to mention flying over walls and walls, at least they could protect themselves.
But where can we find such a person? This is the most difficult thing. I have no clue at all. Those who are good at martial arts are quite passionate and should be protecting their home and country. Older people are also fine, but they should all be
In seclusion, still can't find it.
Chen Miao thought about this matter and must find a way. She couldn't find anyone who could find a suitable one. Her life circle was in the countryside, and the people who came here were all country people. Is there any other way?
Thinking of this, she was really worried. It was hopeless to go to the county town to have a look. She didn't know anyone, so she didn't know who to ask.
Siblings Chen Dou and Chen Tong put down their baskets after they got home. It was really tiring to go all the way. After all, they are just teenagers. A basket of persimmons weighs 100 kilograms. In other words, country children have to work hard since they were young to carry it on their backs.
Something heavier than yourself.
Liang Caixia looked at so many persimmons, and then at the two children with red faces and sweating profusely. "So many?"
"There is also a bag at my third sister's place, and there are quite a few on the mountain." Chen Dou said, breathing heavily.
"Ask your father to go with you." This year has been too chaotic, and no colleagues have come to ask me to go work outside. In fact, it is a good thing not to go, because nothing is more important than living a good life.
"Mom, there are still a lot of hawthorns. My third sister said there are also yams. They were okay to eat yesterday and had no special taste. I will dig them with my third sister tomorrow."
Liang Caixia nodded. That's okay. The children can also have something to eat in winter. Life is like this now. There is nothing good for the children to eat. They eat everything. The third daughter lived a good life after getting married and giving birth to a child.
He has grown taller, and he hopes that the remaining three little ones will also have such a fate.
If they don't have the ability to get food for them, they can get it themselves.
"Mom, I'll carry it. My third sister has a lot of persimmons at home, and she doesn't want persimmons."
"Go with the cart and save the effort."
"Fourth sister, please go back later. We didn't meet anyone when we came back. There should be someone outside now." Chen Tong said quickly.
He is a very stingy person. He is afraid that others will go up the mountain and the good things will be taken away by others.
Chen Dou was also very tired and hungry. The third sister gave them steamed buns, and he became hungry again after a while.
Liang Caixia called her children to eat. Steamed buns with three-way noodles and stewed Japanese melon.
They were used to this kind of meal. The two siblings ate again. Liang Caixia had already dumped all the persimmons on the ground. The ones that were a little soft were placed on the windowsill. They will be more delicious after being frozen. Peel the broken ones.
, all dried into dried persimmons.
After Chen Dou finished eating, he came over to do it with him. Chen Tong didn't want to move anymore, he was so tired. After eating, he lay on the kang motionless.
Chen Dou talked about the situation on the mountain. "Mom, there are really a lot of good things. We haven't seen any animals in the past half day."
"Don't go yourselves. Your third master was eaten by a wolf and couldn't come down. There are many people in the village who have gone up the mountain and haven't left. If you go once or twice, don't go." How can it always be so good?
If they are not lucky enough to encounter large animals? That would be fatal. If they really get caught in the mountains, their parents will regret it for the rest of their lives.
"Mom, we haven't seen her," Chen Dou still wanted to go.
"That won't work either. It's not a joke. If you are not careful, you will lose your life. There are already a lot of persimmons."
The two women did not stop while talking about the work they were doing.
"Mom, I went to dig yams with my third sister. I picked some hawthorns and then left."
Liang Caixia didn't say anything. She also knew that the children wanted to get delicious food, but life was difficult.
In the room, Chen Tong woke up and it was almost dark. He saw the persimmons being dried outside with a smile on his face. He ate several of them when he picked them on the mountain. There were still some that were not peeled, "Mom, do you want these to be dried?"
"
"I'll make you some lazy persimmons to eat."
"What is a lazy persimmon!"
"Persimmons are astringent, but lazy persimmons are just stuffed. In a few days, they will lose their astringency and become crispy and sweet."
Chen Tong is very persistent about food, "Mom, what do you want to do? I will do it."
"Go and push the small vat out of the woodshed, and make sure it doesn't fall."
Chen Dou cooked by himself, and Liang Caixia worked quickly. In fact, she just put the persimmons on the top of the jar, put a layer of mountain quince, and then covered them tightly. In other words, they can be eaten in a few days.
The rice was not yet cooked when Chen Dongsheng came back, followed by Chen Xiaoyan.
Entering the yard, she immediately saw persimmons stacked on the window sill. "Hey, where did the persimmons come from?" Who doesn't like to eat persimmons? It can be said that country people can rarely eat sweet things all year round, let alone eat fruits.
.
Chen Tong was one year younger than Chen Xiaoyan, and he was already very protective of his food. When he saw this eldest niece coming, he knew it was not going to be fun. Before his mother could say anything, he immediately answered, "What do you care about? I'll tell you."
Don't eat it secretly. If I find out, I will go to your parents to make amends."
Of course, Chen Xiaoyan also knew what kind of person this young uncle was. She really didn't dare to say anything head-on. She didn't agree and didn't continue to ask. She was thinking about how to eat the persimmons.
"Why are you coming to my house?" We all grew up together. Chen Tong knew how greedy this eldest niece was. In fact, he had already thought that the nephews and nieces below must all want to eat persimmons. These are his tired clothes.
How can you feed them when you carry them back soaked?
Chen Xiaoyan ignored him and looked at Liang Caixia, "Hey, my mother said that we don't have alkaline noodles at home and the porridge soup is too watery. She asked me to come over and ask for alkaline noodles."
He just wanted her to leave quickly and said before his mother, "No, I don't have one either. Get out of here."
The Chen couple didn't say anything. The children had grown up together and were used to getting along like this.
"Milk, just give me one meal today." This is what my mother told me.
