Peasant Girl's Jingxiu Pastoral

Chapter 13 Strong Country Flavor

In the blink of an eye, it was afternoon, standing in my yard, watching the small farmyard in the village slowly rising from the thick cooking smoke, blending with the setting sun, sunset glow, and wind, full of the most ordinary local atmosphere, simple and warm And fragrant.

This scene, which is rare even on the edge of the city in the 21st century, is particularly reassuring. Such an evening makes people feel inexplicably moved.

The three sisters and brothers fetched water to wash up, and then went into the kitchen to get busy.

Working at sunrise and resting at sunset, life in the countryside is spent in a cycle. When the hardworking farmer returns home in the evening, he is carrying a hoe and smiling.

When the couple finished their homework and returned to their yard, they found smoke slowly rising from the kitchen. The couple knew that the three children were probably preparing dinner.

The two put away their farm tools and went into the kitchen, only to find that the youngest son was burning a fire at the stove, the eldest daughter was cutting unknown wild vegetables in her hands, and the second daughter set up a chair and stood on it, leaning on the stove and busying herself. Seeing that the three children were too busy to notice her husband and wife, Fang moved closer to the stove, ready to see what delicious food the second daughter was cooking. It was my mother, and my father, and then they yelled with a smile: "Father, mother, you are back, go wash your hands, you can eat in a while."

After the couple heard about it, they didn't ask any further questions. Then they fetched water and took it outside to wash up. Then Fang went into the kitchen, ready to see what delicious food the children had made.

As soon as Fang entered the kitchen, she first walked towards the stove where Yanyue was standing. Fang was very curious about what kind of food her second daughter had cooked. When she walked in, she found that the food was corn tortillas, which were just the same as the corn cakes she made in the morning. The tortillas are different. At this moment, the tortillas in the pot are very thin, and even have some green inside. Presumably, the second daughter found unknown wild vegetables and mixed them into the cornmeal!

Fang just looked at everything in front of her, and didn't ask any questions, because the couple could see clearly, knowing that her daughter was different after waking up. In fact, everyone in the family knew it, but the daughter didn't say anything. Although the couple were curious, But in the end did not ask the exit.

Originally, both the husband and wife thought that the poor family could only change slowly, but the happiness of the children is especially important!
Thinking about what my daughter wants to say, she will say it herself. Instead of making it unhappy, let her say it herself!
It is said that Ouyang and his wife are open-minded, unlike some families who only care about the interests and do not consider the feelings and moods of their children, and only blindly satisfy their own needs!
Therefore, Yun Yue felt how lucky she was to have her soul penetrated to Ouyang Jing's family!
Seeing that the corn tortillas were ready, Yue Yue said to the busy eldest sister behind her: "Sister, come and pick up the corn tortillas, and let me mix the wild vegetables. Yingyu knows that Yan Yue is familiar with the preparation and eating of wild vegetables, so Then I retreated to the stove, put the tortillas in the bamboo basket, and watched how Yue Yue made wild vegetables."

After Yanyue prepared the gray vegetables and dandelions, he asked the younger brother to add firewood to the stove, then dug out a little pork suet and put it in the pot, then put the patted ginger and garlic in the pot and stir-fried for a while, adding After adding some salt, he picked up the shepherd's purse that had been drained aside and threw it into the pot to stir fry. When the shepherd's purse changed color, he scooped it up with a spatula and put it in a kiln bowl made of clay.

When everything was ready and put on the table, the sun was about to set. The couple looked at the two unknown bowls of dishes on the table, then looked up at the siblings and asked, "What kind of dishes are these? Can I eat them? "

The two siblings sitting around the wooden table also looked up at Yunyue. Although Yunyue had told them both, the siblings still hoped that Yunyue, who knew better, could tell. I knew I couldn't hide, so I said to the couple who were waiting for the answer: "Father, mother, these two kinds of wild vegetables are edible, the bowl on the left is called shepherd's purse, and the bowl on the right is gray vegetable. Is it a good wild food, and the natural nutritional value is high?"
