Chapter 47: exposed
Pei Xiu was happy. It was great to have someone to help her with her work. She didn't have to worry about many things. He did everything she could to help her complete any order or request.
Thank God for letting her meet him in this other world.
''If you open up more land, it is originally a wasteland. It is unowned, and it is ours. Hmm... This hillside is also small, so you can drive it all the way out, so that the entire hilltop is ours. '' Pei Xiu snickered, she was so energetic that she had no place to vent, and she tossed her every day.
''Are you trying to tire me out? '' Zhou Cheng glanced at her, saw her playful mischief, shook his head, and resignedly picked up the **** and continued to work. His wife became more and more naughty, like a child.
A few children piled all the big stones around in a corner, and they also helped clean up very seriously.
''Okay, don't do it, the meal is ready, let's go back, it's getting late. '' Pointing at a few children, ''You guys go back to take a bath first, wash clean before eating. ''
Seeing them shoving home, Pei Xiu and Zhou Cheng fell behind, poked his arm and said, "Why not one is a daughter, all are stinky boys, look at how dirty they are, I have to cry when I wash my clothes. ''
''Well, you are too arrogant. '' Zhou Cheng carried his hoe, wondering if he should work hard to have a daughter again. Thinking so in my heart, I also asked casually.
''No, now is not the time. I need to take care of myself. Having too many children will hurt my body. ''
''Then there will be no birth. ''
Pei Xiu wanted to stare him out of a hole in the back, but she didn't say anything about it. She still really wanted a child of her own, and she had never experienced the process of being a mother to give birth to a child. This is the regret of her two lifetimes. She has never experienced it, and she feels that her life is incomplete.
But she felt that the state of depletion in her body had not recovered. She wanted a healthy body to give birth to, which would be good for both children and adults.
After the meal, she grabbed a handful of soybean sprouts and a handful of mung bean sprouts, put them in a basket, and asked Zhou Yong to deliver them to the village chief's house.
This kid can do it happily, and he can leave a few younger brothers to play by himself, without having to go out all day to play with a bunch of little tails.
Pi Dian Pi Dian ran away, regardless of the shouting of several younger brothers to go together. Just kidding, it's rare to be able to play alone, so I don't want to take them.
Datou was surprised when he saw Zhou Yong. He didn't see his little friend for a day today, and he missed him. The second head also followed his brother's example. Seeing that Zhou Sheng and Zhou Shan were not followed behind Zhou Yong, he went to the door and looked around, ''Brother Hammer, Mu Tou and Zhou Shan. ''
A few adults opened their eyes and closed their eyes as if they didn't see it. Aunt Lanhua greeted Zhou Yong, ''Have you eaten, Hammer. ''
''I've eaten it, ah, my mother asked me to bring it here, so you can have a taste. ''
Datou grabbed a few of them curiously and looked at them, ''What is this, can I eat it, why haven't I seen it before? '' As he spoke, he wanted to chew it in his mouth.
Aunt Lanhua hurriedly stepped forward and patted off the big hand. Why is this child so greedy, he didn't ask anything, and stuffed things he didn't know into his mouth. Although it is said that Pei Xiu will not harm the villagers, but he can't develop the bad habit of stuffing things into their mouths. Glancing at his eldest grandson, Chao Zhou Yong also asked.
''Don't you know? This is silver needle dish, there are two kinds, just stir-fry and eat, my mother's fried is very delicious. ''
The village chief was surprised and stepped forward to take a look, ''Is this the silver needle dish? ''
''Do you know the old man? ''
''When I went to town, I heard people say that this is only available in Zuixianglou, and there is no takeaway. During Maodong, only Zuixianglou has fresh vegetables. ’’ The village chief explained to Aunt Lanhua, and thought of the fish **** unique to Zuixianglou, wondering if the two were related.
This time, it was Aunt Orchid's turn to be surprised, '' Hammer, why do you have this precious thing in your house? ''
''My mother made it. '' After he finished speaking, he quickly covered his mouth. It's over. My parents won't let me talk about family affairs. After Zhou Yong finished speaking, he quickly put down the basket and ran home worried all the way.
He told Pei Xiu that he was in trouble and explained the process.
Pei Xiu patted his head and said with a smile: ''It's okay, I didn't tell them how to get it out. The next time someone asks you about your family, just don't talk about it, and you all remember it. ''
She didn't care what the village chief would think.
Seeing the big head and the second head poking out at the gate of the courtyard, she sent them out to play. Zhou Yong was annoyed, he just got rid of it earlier, and now he has to bring a few oil bottles to play with.
Pei Xiu doesn't care what the village chief's family guesses about her.
Thinking that the field had been opened today, she took a small part of the corn seeds she had collected to Zhou Cheng, and explained that he would plant it at a distance tomorrow. She didn't know what else to pay attention to. Just pay more attention.
Corn is a very good crop, and it does not require much land. The back hillside just opened up to plant these new crops of hers. UU reading Sweet potatoes and potatoes are planted in a wooden box for a while. She had counted all the corn kernels on hand, and there were only more than 200 kernels, so she planted a little bit of corn, and planted as much corn as she could.
The back hillside is on the small road beside their backyard. Generally, not many people go there. There is a small soil **** with a small area and a low height. The villagers are used to ignoring this hillside. It just happened that no one was there, and it was suitable for her to sow new crops.
The village is surrounded by mountains on both sides, and the mountains are connected to each other. There are many ways for everyone to enter the mountains. The most common one is where they went to pick wild vegetables this morning. That piece is close to the village, and everyone is used to walking there when going in and out of the mountains, picking up firewood and herding cattle.
There is a bamboo forest in the memory of the mountain in the west. Everyone who needs bamboo will go there to chop it, and then make bamboo strips into bamboo products.
Pei Xiu thought to herself that there should be bamboo shoots there. No one here knows that bamboo shoots can be eaten.
Small life is more important than food. Early the next morning, after sending the father and son to open up the wasteland, she took a few black fungus of different sizes, wrapped a bag in her arms with a handkerchief, and went straight to the town.
The town is only that big, and she knows it well. There is only one pharmacy, which is said to be a branch of the Great Medical Center in the provincial capital. That should be well-informed, you know?
Entering the store, she saw an elderly man in the pharmacy. She took out the black fungus in her arms and handed it to him for a look. "Does the shopkeeper know this?" ''
''Little lady, this was just picked? '' The shopkeeper touched the black fungus and took a picture with a magnifying glass.
''The little woman picked it on the mountain yesterday, and she was curious to know if it could be eaten. To be cautious, bring it to your store and ask about it. Can the shopkeeper inform? '' Pei Xiu said sincerely.
