Warm man's succulent garden

After moving, Zhang Jingye seldom went out of the valley again, because this guy found a more important job: reading parenting books!

Yes, because among the couple, Ron never took care of children, and Daniel grew up with his grandmother, so he has basically zero parenting experience.There was no way, Zhang Jingye, who was automatically classified as a "mother" because of her delicate body and frail body, had no choice but to pick up the books and study obediently.

Fortunately, the butler in the villa also invited two aunts from Huaguo to help with cleaning and cooking, so they can ask for advice if they don't understand.

At this time, the husband and wife finally realized the deep feeling of "a family with an old man is like a treasure".It's a pity that Michelle is old now, and it is not realistic for her to help with the children.For this reason, Zhang Jingye even wanted to enroll in a training class for confinement maids, but when she heard that confinement maids had no men, she immediately withered away.

Fortunately, the Internet in Huaguo was quite developed at this time. After connecting the valley to the Internet, Zhang Jingye went to the library to pick up a bunch of parenting books, and at the same time registered several well-known parenting websites in China, staring happily every day. Posts to learn how to take care of children.

I don't know if I don't look at it, but Zhang Jingye found out that these children who were abandoned in the orphanage for various reasons are really very lucky to grow up so safely.It may also be that I have forgotten a lot of hardships I suffered when I was a child. Now that I think about it, I don’t even remember how I grew up day by day.

However, look at these posts about how to raise a baby, why newborns can’t wear chemical fiber clothes, diapers can’t be packed for a whole day, what brand of milk powder is not easy for children to get angry after eating... How can this be? Raising children?This is an ancestor, right? !

Anyway, in his only childhood memories, clothes are donated by kind people outside to wear, milk powder is also donated by kind people, there are all kinds of brands, basically as long as it is not expired, you can eat it, as for urine Not wet, Zhang Jingye has no impression, but the children sent by the orphanage did have bags, but it is not the brand that must be imported as mentioned on the Internet, but the cheap wholesale goods in the town... But that's all It's a fool to grow up, isn't it?

After all, Zhang Jingye is really reluctant to let her children use Sanwu products. Anyway, whether it is Ron or herself, the money in this life is definitely enough, let alone one child, it is only ten or twenty It's not that I can't afford one.Making up her mind to use the best for her children, Zhang Jingye began to pay attention to those baby products with good reputation, and planned to make a list, and when the day came, he and Ron went to country Y to pick up the children, and bought them back by the way.

As for the children's clothes and diapers, he plans to ask the housekeeper to go to XJ province to purchase a batch of the best quality and softest pure cotton cloth, and then find a tailor to make more than a dozen sets of them for replacement, although those baby clothes on the market It was advertised as pure cotton, but Zhang Jingye took a closer look and found that the fabric was pure cotton, but the label was definitely made of chemical fiber!Even if the label can be cut off, the thread used to sew clothes is not cotton!Regarding this behavior of cutting corners and changing concepts secretly, although Zhang Jingye is angry that he has no way to compete with a society, but he can give his children the best as much as possible within the scope of his ability.Hand-sewn clothes may not be comparable to machine-made clothes in terms of shape, but they are definitely soft and comfortable to wear.

There are also children's crawling mats. Zhang Jingye searched the Internet for a long time, and then went to the physical store to look. The plastic smells a pungent smell. Can children use it?

Later, it was Ron who said that he could find someone to order a batch of cushions.In the past few days, seeing Xiao Ye busy with the children's affairs, Ron was a little helpless besides being funny. Could it be that he has no sense of existence? !

If it weren't for the three-year agreement with his stepfather, Ron would really want to throw his lover on the bed, let him know that not only the child needs his care, but he also needs to be "taken care of"!

Busy and busy, time flies, and the Chinese New Year is almost here in the blink of an eye. Half a month before the Chinese New Year, Daniel and Sun Boran, who were sent to the military management school by their unscrupulous father/"brother-in-law", finally have a holiday!

When they saw Zhang Jingye in the valley villa, the two young boys were filled with grief and excitement!If it weren't for Ron staring at the side, the two of them really wanted to rush over and hug Brother Xiaoye's thigh and cry bitterly!Ever since the two brothers were sent to that devil school with closed management where even parents could not get in, they have lived a life of darkness ever since. kind of food.

Seeing that the two teenagers hadn't seen each other for more than half a year, their small bodies became much stronger, and even their eyes became sharper. Even if Zhang Jingye, who knew Ron's painstaking efforts, couldn't bear it, she couldn't help but plead for them to come back.

Indeed, of these two children, one is the first heir destined to inherit a huge family, and the other is the "poor generation" who was abandoned by their parents and can only work hard for the future on their own. No matter how you look at it, they are not lazy Reasons and excuses.

However, Zhang Jingye still felt a little distressed seeing the two children's obviously thinned faces.Resolutely put down the parenting manual in his hand, and went to the kitchen to prepare delicious food for the two of them.

Because the farm just sent half a sheep over yesterday, Zhang Jingye stewed a pot of mutton and radish soup last night. Let’s heat it up at this time, and each of them will fill a large bowl for them to fill their stomachs first. A bowl of fragrant and delicious soup After eating the mutton soup, the two sighed contentedly: It's better to be at home!

In the next few days, under the protection of Zhang Jingye intentionally or unintentionally, Ron simply opened his eyes and closed his eyes, letting the two boys relax for a few days, so the two boys followed their favorite Brother Xiaoye, instead of going to Rabbits are set up in the nearby mountains, so they go to the river to catch fish, or they just squat in the kitchen and study how to make delicious food.

Since moving to the valley, Zhang Jingye has made full use of the resources in the mountains behind. In autumn, as long as there is nothing to do, she will take people to the mountains to pick up wild chestnuts, hazelnuts, pine cones, and other things that fell from the trees. All kinds of wild mushrooms, fungus and other wild mushrooms, even wild dates have been harvested, and many of them are stored in the cold storage, and they are said to be taken out to entertain guests during the Chinese New Year.

This morning, the weather was dry and cold, and even the lake was covered with a thin layer of ice. The red sweet potatoes on the farm had a bumper harvest yesterday. *An brought two big bags over, all of which were medium-sized and cooked. Porridge, snacks, and roasted sweet potatoes are all delicious. Early in the morning, Zhang Jingye asked someone to bring out some sweet potatoes, and was going to open an earthen stove to make sweet potato porridge.Because she really likes the special taste of cooking rice and stewed vegetables in a large firewood pot, when building the villa, Zhang Jingye willfully equipped the exquisite holiday villa with a beautiful earthen stove. Uncle Ouyang Biao laughed.

After setting up a firewood pot to stew the porridge, Zhang Jingye took out the dough kneaded last night and added the stewed old pumpkin, made some palm-sized pumpkin cakes, half steamed and half fried, and spread out a dozen more Ranran and Daniel's favorite egg-filled pancakes, the family had a hearty breakfast.

A few people got up early today, mainly because they wanted to go into the mountains to dig winter bamboo shoots.

That's right, since Zhang Jingye discovered the bamboo forest last time, she has always wanted to experience digging bamboo shoots herself.When he was in the hotel in his previous life, he especially liked to eat a stewed winter bamboo shoots with ham made by the master.It's a pity that when they found the bamboo forest, the spring bamboo shoots were out of season. Zhang Jingye just dug up some summer bamboo shoots to satisfy his hunger when he went up to the mountain to pick wild fruits.

Seeing that winter is coming, it is a good time to eat winter bamboo shoots. How can foodie Zhang Jingye give up?Almost as soon as the sky cleared, I immediately thought about going up the mountain to dig winter bamboo shoots.

After breakfast, the group put on light and dirt-resistant work clothes, tightened their trousers, and walked all the way to the bamboo forest.The mountains are especially depressed in winter. The leaves of the tall trees have fallen. From time to time, a group of small squirrels can be heard flying across the branches above the head. There are thick fallen leaves under the forest. The rustling sound in the distance is probably not a hare. It is a pheasant.

When they reached the bamboo forest, the two young ones were fine, but Zhang Jingye, who was delicate and frail, was already panting from exhaustion.Stopped to drink some water, and continued to walk into the bamboo forest.Zhang Jingye has never dug bamboo shoots before, but only knows that winter bamboo shoots are usually buried underground and are not easy to find. They need to dig up the soil to find them.

Fortunately, the gardener hired by the villa is a local, and it happens that the house also has a bamboo forest, so he knows how to find winter bamboo shoots.I saw him look up at the bamboo tip from time to time, and then observed the color of the moso bamboo pole. He found a slightly raised place on the ground. Dig first, remember to be gentle, dig slowly along the direction of the bamboo whip, and don't break the bamboo whip.After all the bamboo shoots are exposed, use a bamboo pick to dig along the roots.

"Uncle, can you teach us how to find winter bamboo shoots?" Sun Boran has sharp eyes, and he discovered that this job is skillful early in the morning, and he happened to be accompanied by an experienced bamboo shoot digger.

"Hehe~~ It's very simple. The first thing is to choose bamboo. The young bamboo that just grew this year will not grow bamboo shoots. You see, this kind of green surface is tender bamboo. The bamboo shoots are usually those that grow. A kind of bamboo with a darker color."

"After choosing the bamboo, you should pay attention to the ground. Winter bamboo shoots are different from spring bamboo shoots. They are usually hidden underground. At this time, you should pay attention to observation. If you see a slightly arched place on the ground, step on the softer ones. There will always be bamboo shoots.”

"Don't dig in the place where there are bamboo shoots. Pay attention to it. Generally, the old bamboos with dark colors will have bamboo shoots on the mother branch of the bamboo whip and in front of the mother bamboo; the lighter-colored bamboos will grow like bamboo shoots. On the branch whip of the bamboo whip, usually behind the mother bamboo."

"After confirming the growth direction of the bamboo shoots, you can slowly dig the soil along with the bamboo whip. Remember not to use too much force. Use a small hoe to slowly remove the soil. When the bamboo shoots are completely exposed, dig along the roots. That's it."

The old gardener taught carefully, and the others also studied hard. Soon, everyone found the winter bamboo shoots alone.However, digging winter bamboo shoots is a very labor-intensive job. They only dug more than 20 catties in one morning.

Back at the villa in the afternoon, several people peeled and cut the bamboo shoots together. In the evening, they stewed a large pot of ham and winter bamboo shoots, and made stewed bamboo shoots in oil, fried winter bamboo shoots with pickled vegetables, fried winter bamboo shoots with tamarind vegetables, rice cakes in soup with pickled vegetables and winter bamboo shoots, and fried rice cakes with winter bamboo shoots in shepherd’s purse. Wait, a bunch of people are hooked after eating.
