Hard times have room

Chapter 431 Unhappy

Seeing that the grasshoppers couldn't stand up, Pauline hurried over and flipped the piece of sweet potato vine over and over again. Sure enough, about ten or twenty grasshoppers jumped away, and soon disappeared in the sweet potato vine. Under the leaves, only the gnawed sweet potato leaves were left in place.

The grass in the sweet potato field has been removed very cleanly. There are only sweet potato leaves and sweet potato canes. If you want to survive here, these sweet potato leaves are the only food!
At this point, Pauline is not in a hurry. It's useless. She stayed at home for two days and reminded her parents. No matter how much more, she didn't know what to do. She had never met before. These, ah, there is no way.

Besides, there may not be a plague of insects, or a plague of locusts, maybe a false alarm will be fine!

Although I comforted myself so much, I secretly decided in my heart that it will take a lot of effort to dig wild vegetables these days. Not too much at all.

Thinking about it, Pauline pinched some tender leaves on this sweet potato field, and she couldn't hold it with both hands.

Yesterday, she came back at five o'clock, so she only dug some wild vegetables in the small bamboo forest near her home, not many. When I made dinner last night, all of them were put into the pot.

This morning, she came to see it and found that the sweet potato leaves are growing so well, she couldn't help it. Although the sweet potato leaves have a very unique smell when boiled, they are only boiled in water, and there is no oil and water, so the taste is naturally incomprehensible. How good, but also much stronger than wild vegetables, at least it's not bitter.

When she had just washed the sweet potato leaves, Su Hongying came to the kitchen with a sleepy yawn and scooped water to wash her face.

After washing his face and hanging up the veil, this person has also been thoroughly washed.

"Paulin, why did you get up so early!" As she said, Su Hongying raised her hands up, intending to stretch.

This hand had just been raised above his head, and he wanted to stretch it out, but when he turned his head to take a look, and saw Pauline with a mosquito bag on his face, he was immediately stunned.

"Pauline, what's wrong with your face?"

She didn't expect that in one night, seven or eight red spots appeared on Paulin's face, and there were four or five swollen bumps. Mosquito poisoning in the mountains, the biggest bump on Paulin's face was about to catch up with her. The size of the little finger is particularly conspicuous.

"Oh, bitten by a mosquito, it's fine, I'll just wipe it with a mint leaf later." Pauline touched the itchy part of her face, the largest mosquito bag, and said helplessly. .

As soon as she was woken up by mosquitoes this morning, she felt itchy on her face. She took a mini-mirror from the space and saw her present honor. To be honest, she was taken aback.

Then, she hurriedly put the mirror back in the space, and kept telling herself in her heart that the one she just saw was an illusion, deceiving herself, and then she went to see the bamboo rat. Gradually, she really forgot about it. , Unexpectedly, when she got here, when she was reminded by her mother, she instantly remembered this stubble.

"It's all like this, what are you waiting for? I'll boil the water first. It won't take you long to wipe the mint leaves, so hurry up." As she said, Su Hongying took the vegetable bowl in Baolin's hand, and then walked around. When she got behind Pauline, she turned sideways and moved her elbow, trying to push the person out.

Although Pauline looked a little funny like this, she couldn't laugh at all.

I feel a little anxious, but I have to say it is urgent, but it is not. At this time, it is normal to be bitten by mosquitoes. Not to mention, when she usually goes to work, the mosquitoes keep buzzing around her. Buzzing, she can't fight those nasty mosquitoes, and she doesn't have much time to fight. In the end, it's impossible not to get bitten a few times, and now there are three red dots on her ankle!
Therefore, now that Pauline's face is full of bags, she looks like that, and she was a little surprised when she suddenly saw it at first, and then, it's nothing.

Right now, she was just a little anxious, and wanted Pauline to take care of her face first. If there was more, there would be no more. Children in the mountains are not so squeamish and normal.

Paulin didn't bring back the mosquito net, and she was bitten so badly at night. There are still many girls in the village sleeping together with their sisters and sisters. There is no mosquito net at all. Every day they work back and forth with their bags in their hands. Such days will last for more than a month. They are much worse than Pauline.

"Okay, I'll go right away." After Pauline finished speaking, she was about to go out. As soon as she stepped out with one foot, she suddenly thought of something: "By the way, Mom, I haven't brought out the sweet potato yet, you remember to get a sweet potato. Come out, wash it, cut it into small pieces, and leave the rest to me, soon."

After speaking, she trotted to the very edge of the yard. In order to repel insects, she often digs mint and wormwood leaves and these grasses at home. They are all planted in the corner of the yard. Just pick it up.

After Pauline finished wiping the mint juice water, the cool and refreshing feeling appeared. This time, Pauline also made preparations and added a little water to dilute it, so that there was no irritating eyes. Without him, the mint in the yard The effect is very good. She had no experience when she used it for the first time. Her eyes were smoky enough.

When Wang Jiandang woke up, he saw Paulin who was smearing mint water on her face, and then, following her hand, she saw her face, full of buns, not to mention how miserable it was.

"Pauline, did you get bitten like this by a mosquito last night?"

Although it's not the first time I've seen Pauline like this, it's been a while since I last saw it.

He still remembered that the last time Baolin went with Wang Dongmei to pick peaches from the wild peach tree in the back mountain, she was bitten badly, and her face and hands were covered with bags. Unexpectedly, she saw it again today.

"Well, I'll cook first." Bao Lin resisted the urge to roll her eyes and turned around to take over Su Hongying's work.

Can her parents refuse to open the pot and lift it again and again, she really doesn't want to talk about this topic.

Wang Jiandang pulled Su Hongying, who went out of the kitchen with her, and asked with a puzzled face, "What's wrong? I asked about the mosquito bag on Baolin's face just now, and she doesn't seem very happy."

"What do you think, if your face is full of mosquito bags, would you be willing to be mentioned repeatedly?" Su Hongying asked rhetorically.

She hadn't reacted before, but when Wang Jiandang asked Bao Lin again, she found out.

"Uh, probably not!" Wang Jiandang also reacted at this time.
