Chapter 29 Midsummer

It was midsummer, the days were too long, the sky turned white almost just after Yinshi, and it was dark at night almost at the beginning of Xu.Almost everyone got up early to work in the cool weather, and when the sun came up, they could sit in the shade and rest with a palm leaf fan in one hand and a piece of watermelon in the other.If you are not in good spirits, you can still take a nap at noon, not to mention how comfortable it is.

Du Zhongping saw the hot weather, the children sat in the house reading and writing, the hot sweat dripped down their necks, and some were so hot that they fell asleep, nodding like chickens pecking at rice, occasionally shivering, and I tried to cheer up, but unfortunately I was sleepy again after a while, repeating the chicken eating rice.He had to change his work and rest time according to the current situation. He read books for two hours at Mao and Chen every day, and let the students dismiss get out of class.In this way, the children have some time in the morning to do tasks such as hunting pigweed, and they don't have to go out in the sun in the afternoon.

Well, he himself can take Jin'er to have a good sleep at noon.

Recently, some students have been asking Fang Sheng for some herbs to repel insects. After finishing their daily routine activities such as reading and working in the morning, the rest of the time is their own.Although they are full of energy, there are not many people who are willing to go out to play in the midday sun. They just take a straw mat, find a big tree, and spread it under the shade of the tree for a good sleep. I took it, climbed directly to the tree, found a branch to sit and sleep, I was really not afraid of falling off.

In the afternoon, the sun was westward, and the river water was not so cool, so it was time to go to toss.I jumped into the river and splashed, washed off all the stickiness, and rinsed the clothes by the way, so as to save my mother from yelling and scolding again when I went back.It's the most pleasant time to play water fights and catch some small fish and shrimps.

Recently, Duane often went here in the afternoon to pick some edamame and eat them back. He often saw these boys.He grew up in the south, and his water skills are better. Recently, he has been playing in the water with these boys. After playing enough, he will go back.He deliberately took off his shirt and dried it in the sun. His complexion has darkened a lot, and he is quite satisfied.

Well, about the child bride, Zhao Ba was actually just teasing him, and he had long forgotten about the back of his head.But Du An recently robbed Du Zhongping, Du Zhongping only thought that he was very angry and always let him, which made him feel a little embarrassed.It's just that these words are always wandering in his mind, but no one can say them, and he always takes a look at Du Zhongping: tsk tsk, the one with the white face, the one with the thin waist, even dressed in dog days Strict and honest, she also likes to eat some melons, pears, pears and peaches. She looks like a little daughter-in-law no matter how you look at it.

Duan quickly shook his head, what happened to him?Is this what I should think too?My young master brought you all the way to Yanbei, settled down in his family, and even let you off your citizenship, treating you like a brother, so you think of him like that?If my old mother was still there, I would have to beat myself up hard before tying myself up to the young master to plead guilty.Are you not a demon?

On the contrary, when I came back to pick some edamame, I felt depressed, and I went down to the river to play with the boys, and I felt much more comfortable.Moreover, these children clearly showed admiration for their good water skills, which made themselves feel more at ease: I am still very manly, and they are all mynahs talking nonsense. Look, isn't this proof?Therefore, now every afternoon, he takes a little bit to play for a while to enjoy himself, and enjoy the admiring eyes of the children by the way.Of course, he also became a master by the way, teaching them Fushui and so on.

For Duan to go out every day, several members of the family are optimistic.Originally, Du An is less than [-] years old this year, and he is not like a young man who spends all day worrying about this and that at home, especially Du Zhongping, who feels guilty because he is too dependent on him, making He has been worrying like a housekeeper so early.So even though they didn't like edamame that much, they still urged him to pick it in the afternoon every day.

Du An is happy to go out, he is determined to make himself a manly image like Zhao Ba, so that he can forget the words "child bride" that upset him.Well, although there is no major change except for the black spots, it is true that those half-children are getting better and better with him.

There are many thunderstorm days in summer, and such rain comes and goes quickly.Whenever this kind of weather happened, after the rain stopped, some people would come to ask Duan to go to the woods to pick mushrooms together.

The local people think that thunder will shake the mushrooms out of the ground. Of course, there are indeed a lot of mushrooms.

Du An took a basket, said hello to Du Zhongping, and went out. Jin'er wanted to go too, but Du Zhongping kept him alive. It was a joke, they went to the forest, and in some places the grass was taller than Jin'er. What should I do if there is something wrong?Du Zhongping thought about it, and took Jin'er to buy chicken. Chicken stewed with mushrooms should be delicious, and some potatoes should be added.It just so happens that the chickens hatched in spring have grown up, and the chickens back then were so tender that it was useless to keep them at home. Someone must be willing to sell them.

Duan, Da Zhu and the others walked towards the woods together. There are mostly poplar trees here, and everyone looked carefully under the roots of the trees.The most numerous are clumps of unknown small mushrooms, with a little yellow on the top, which is almost invisible, and the underside of the umbrella is snow-white.These mushrooms don't last long, but it's great to make a miso soup with it.

There are also "land cats", which are found in the mushroom grass, and they are big enough, with brown spots on the white background.

The most popular is a kind of "oily mushroom" that grows in the poplar forest. It looks yellow and has a sticky film on the top. It is easy to stick to the leaves and grass leaves. It is difficult to find, so everyone has to take it. Pulling the branches to search carefully, this thing is a large piece as it grows.Use it to stew chicken or meat, the taste is the best.

Of course there are others, but no one knows, so forget it.If you know these kinds of food, you will be fine. If you don’t know them, don’t take that risk.

They were lucky today, almost everyone filled half of the basket with mushrooms.

When Du An came home, Zhao Ba had already killed the chicken that Du Zhongping bought. Even the potatoes were peeled, cut into pieces and soaked in water. It's time to cook.Duane really didn't know what to say, so he could only change his wet clothes and shoes, turned around and went into the kitchen.

Fang Sheng was careful, and also came in to help him clean up those mushrooms. The "oily mushrooms" were particularly difficult to wash, and there were a lot of dirt on their tops.

After a while, a head poked out from the kitchen door: "Shall we cook rice today?"

Duan looked at him: "The sun came out from the west today, young master, how many days have you not eaten properly? Are you willing to eat dry rice?" That being said, he still scooped up rice and washed it for cooking.

The mushrooms are really fresh. They are stewed into the pot together with the chicken and potatoes, and the aroma comes out as soon as the pot is opened.When it's on the table and in your mouth, it's even more fragrant.Because of the hot weather, I have been eating some light food for many days in a row. Now I eat chicken stewed mushrooms out of the blue, and everyone feels that it really satisfies their cravings.Potatoes are added here, stewed noodles, and the aroma of chicken and mushrooms is eaten in, which is especially delicious.

At this moment, Du An knew why Du Zhongping asked for dry rice on his own initiative, and as soon as he started eating, he made vegetable soup for himself.Duan joked at him that "greedy people eat soup and rice" and put meat in the bowl for him. Really, he picked mushrooms and potatoes to eat, and he was not afraid that he would not grow taller in the future!

This meal was really good, even the big pot of soup and water, there was nothing left, and the food was clean.Even Zhao Ba was still a little unsatisfied with something so edible. While picking his teeth, he muttered: "It would be nice if it still rained tomorrow."

Jin'er also nodded solemnly, Du Zhongping was busy rubbing his stomach, and today he accidentally made him eat a little too much, and his belly came out.

Fang Sheng scolded Zhao Ba while helping to clear the table.

Duan looked at these people. With such a family, even if they are "child brides", it's okay, right?
