Happy peasant girl

Chapter 6
Mu's and Qin's used big pots to steam vegetable buns, while Lin Qingxi and Lin Qingmu used small pots to cook yam porridge. Originally, Lin Qingxi didn't want to put bran rice, but it wasn't because she didn't want to, but because she felt that bran rice didn't go well with it. Serve white and tender wild yams, and then spoil the good things.

But thinking that all the family members are here today, and the yams are not dug too much, she wants to make another meal for her father and two sisters-in-law at night, so that she can only add some bran to eat.

After steaming the vegetable buns, Lin Qingmu and Lin Qingxi in the kitchen couldn't help swallowing, and the yam and bran rice porridge in the small pot almost drew out their greedy worms.

From Lin Qingxi's point of view, these unsalted vegetable buns and rough yam and bran rice porridge are not good things, but for other Lin family members, today is like Chinese New Year.

Lin Qinghai and Lin Qingfei killed rabbits in the yard. After killing and skinning them, they found that there was not enough water in the house.

The drinking water in Linjia Village was already tight, but some time ago, after Uncle Lin Hu from next door brought people through Caojia Village, some water flowed out, so Lin Qingfei took a bucket and ran to the entrance of the village to fetch water.

After the two fat rabbits were cleaned, Lin Yuanshan asked Lin Qingyun and Lin Qingfei to send one of the rabbits to the home of Grandpa Lin who had treated Lin Zhongguo.

Grandpa Lin is kind-hearted. People in the village never ask for money to see a doctor, but everyone thinks of him, and will always send him something from time to time. If Grandpa Lin wasn't for this time, Lin Zhongguo might not be able to stand up in the future.It is hard to repay a great kindness, so Linyuan Shan thought of honoring a rabbit first.

After the meal was ready, Lin Yuanshan asked his grandsons to carry the dining table to the rooms of Lin Zhongguo, Mu's family and Lin Qingxi. The rooms in the country are very large, and it is no problem for a dozen people to sit in the room.

"Father, does it still hurt?" Lin Qingxi walked to the bed where Lin Zhongguo was lying and asked softly.

Lin Zhongguo also lived a very enviable life when he was a teenager, because he was the only son, and his family life was good. He even went to a private school, but later life forced him to grow into a person who can protect his family from wind and rain. Dashu, this is a good father.

"Father doesn't hurt, I heard from your fifth brother that girl Xi made a great contribution today and found something good?" For his only daughter, Lin Zhongguo has always been very fond of her.

Last time, when Linqingxi was beaten in the head by Cao Agou, he was still working in someone else's house, and he didn't know what was going on at home. Later, when he got home, he was very angry, but Mrs. Ye advised him to do more things rather than do less things. , he also endured it.

"Well, Miss Xi is amazing today! Dad wants to eat more later, and he must eat three big bowls!" Lin Qingxi is getting more and more comfortable pretending to be a child, and she doesn't feel embarrassed.

"Okay, dad must eat more!" The son and daughter-in-law are filial and sensible, and the daughter has become lively and smart again, Lin Zhongguo's depression finally eased a little.

A small basket of vegetable steamed buns was placed on the table, as well as a large plate of wild vegetables prepared by the Qin family, followed by bowls of yam bran rice porridge, a small dish of pickles, and finally served in a small porcelain basin rabbit meat.

The food was on the table, but none of the old Lin's family moved their chopsticks, they all looked a little excited, even Lin Nian Yu and Lin Nian Shui in the arms of Qin Shi and Wu Shi opened their eyes wide and whirled around.

"What are you looking at, eat!" Linyuanshan gave an order, and the old and young people in Lao Lin's family began to pick up vegetables and eat in an orderly manner, but none of the vegetables picked up by the first chopsticks were put into their own bowls, and everyone unanimously said Send it to the bowls of Lin Zhongguo, Lin Qinghao and Lin Qingxi.

Lin Zhongguo and Lin Qinghao have always known that the people of the old Lin family will love their own people the most. If someone gets sick or something, the family will always be very concerned, so they are more moved by the extra dishes in the bowl.

But Lin Qingxi has never experienced such a tender moment in her two lifetimes. Apart from being moved, she is more excited. How lucky she is to be a member of the old Lin family. disappeared.

Although there was no salt and oil in the vegetable buns, but because of the pickles on the table, a small basket was eaten without knowing it, and Linqingxi ate two for the first time.To be honest, this was the most satisfying meal she had come here.

Lin Qingxi knew from her second sister-in-law Wu that the country she was in was called Chu State. People in poor and remote places didn't know much about it. They only heard that it would take a month's drive to get to the capital of Chu State.

She has the idea of ​​going out of Dameishan, but now she is still young, and the whole family is still in the abyss of hunger, so she will definitely visit Chu State if she has the opportunity.

After the meal, the faces of the people in the old Lin family had a hint of joy. After all, they have not eaten for a long time, and it may be that the wild yam can really cure diseases. After drinking the porridge, everyone feels warm on their bodies. Apparently, it seems to have a strong momentum.

In the evening, Lin Qinghe, Lin Qingmu, and Lin Qingxi hid behind their yards to discuss secretly, and they unanimously decided to dig wild vegetables tomorrow morning, but Lin Qingmu didn't let Linyuan Mountain do it at all, so he compiled it in the afternoon Two panniers.

It was still dark the next day, and the three brothers and sisters of the Lin family still got up secretly. They carried a basket on their backs, took two small shovels, and went out together.

Lin Qinghe and Lin Qingmu speeded up their pace when they went into the mountains this time. Although Lin Qingxi is small, maybe she used to do farm work with this body. She is not too tired, but she just feels a little cold.

When they arrived at the Shanmei River at the back of Mount Damei, Lin Qinghe and Lin Qingmu pulled out the bamboo rafts they had hidden yesterday. As the saying goes, "Once born, second time ripe", it didn't take long to get to the other side this time.

After the three brothers and sisters arrived on the other side of the Shanmei River, the division of labor was very clear. Lin Qinghe was in charge of finding wild animals, Lin Qingmu was in charge of pulling yams, and Lin Qingxi was in charge of digging wild vegetables.

An hour later, Lin Qingxi's back basket was full of wild vegetables, and Lin Qingmu's back basket was also full of yams, but Lin Qinghe found nothing but a few wild eggs.

"Sixth brother, sister, you wait here, I'll go inside!" Lin Qinghe was already courageous, and now he is full of unknown curiosity and desire to explore the deep mountains, especially when he is not on the shore. What harvest time.

"Fifth brother, let's go together!" Lin Qingxi quickly stood up and grabbed Lin Qinghe's sleeve. She wanted to go in for a long time, but she was afraid that her two brothers would not allow it. Now that Lin Qinghe took the initiative to speak out, she naturally Will not let go of such a good opportunity.

"I'm going too!" Lin Qingmu put the back basket full of wild yams and Lin Qingxi's back basket full of wild vegetables together, and found many branches to cover the two back baskets, and by the way, carried Lin Qinghe's back basket on the back body.

Lin Qinghe glanced at his younger siblings, struggling intensely in his heart, and finally his impulse overcame his reason. He put the wild eggs in the wild vegetable basket, and led Lin Qingmu and Lin Qingxi to the depths.

In order to avoid getting lost, Lin Qingxi asked his two elder brothers to tie some vines they saw while walking to the tree, and carved marks on the tree with a small iron shovel in their hands, so that they would not get lost when they came back.
