After crossing over, it's hard

After buying the oil dregs, I fed them twice a day in the morning and evening, and Jinan was in charge.After picking up the fry that time, the family went to pick up three more times, and each time there were almost half of the bucket.The pond is only one acre in size, so too many fish fry cannot be put in, otherwise it will be too crowded, which will cause the fish fry to die and not easy to grow up.

Everything at home has been done, and now I go to the fields every day to see the crops in the dry land, often watering, weeding, and loosening the soil.For paddy fields, water should be poured frequently, and the ash from the fire in the stove should be mixed with farmyard manure to fertilize the rice in the paddy fields.

The time slowly came to the end of April, the weather became a little hot, and the clothes were reduced from two rooms a few days ago to one single clothes now.The crops in the fields at home are growing very gratifyingly. The watermelon vines have covered the fields and bloomed small yellow flowers. Li Ran has fenced the five acres of fields on the ridges, more than one meter high.Other people's vegetables have just begun to bloom and bear fruit, and the vegetables on the two acres of land planted by Li Ran can already be picked and eaten.

The vegetables Li Ran grows are some common vegetables, such as cucumbers, beans, eggplants, etc. These vegetables grow very well, and the fruits are abundant. Li Ran picked more, thinking that the vegetables grown by everyone have not yet been marketed. , I will send some to a few close friends, so that everyone can try it. After all, people who have eaten cabbage, radish and pickles all winter will get tired of eating it.

The family that Li Ran made friends with was that Ji's family, the two neighbors Zhang Guihua's family, Li Amao's family, and Ji Amao's family.Li Ran first delivered food to the two neighbors. Zhang Guihua looked at the food Li Ran sent over, but she didn't refuse. She just looked at Li Ran in surprise and said, "Your food can be eaten, but mine is still good." It's just beginning to bloom, it seems that it was useful if you planted it earlier."

"Well, you can pick it and eat it. I'll give you some to try." Li Ran said with a smile.

Zhang Guihua took Li Ran's basket and said, "I won't be polite to you this time, and I just want to change the taste, but don't give it away next time. Your dish is on the market early, and it looks fresh. Take it It’s sold in Pingyang Town, and I’m sure I can get a good price, but I’m too embarrassed to eat your food all the time.” After Zhang Guihua finished speaking, she went into the kitchen and gave Li Ran an empty basket, and put a few sauerkraut in the basket that he accumulated himself.Courtesy is reciprocal, Zhang Guihua is not one of those shameless people who only know to take advantage of others.

Li Ran took the basket handed back by Zhang Guihua, looked at the sauerkraut inside, and said with a smile: "You still say me, you are not yourself, I have eaten a lot of sauerkraut from you when I moved here. According to you, I can't take your sauerkraut, or I won't dare to come to the door next time." Li Ran joked, and made a gesture to return the sauerkraut to Zhang Guihua.

"I can't compare with yours. Your vegetables can be sold for money, and my sauerkraut is not worth anything." Zhang Guihua stopped Li Ran and said with a smile.

"Oh, what is money or not? It's just some vegetables grown in the field. Our neighbors have to worry about it. Well, I won't tell you. I have to go to Aunt Li's house to take Xiaoyuan home. "Li Ran went home with a basket of sauerkraut.

Li Ran went home to pack a basket of vegetables, and then went to Grandma Li's house.Xiaoyuan was playing with Gousheng in the yard. Seeing Li Ran coming, he rushed over and hugged Li Ran's thigh. Li Ran rubbed Xiaoyuan's head and said with a smile: "Be careful, don't fall down!" gone."

Li Ran said to Gou Sheng: "Gou Sheng, is your grandma at home?"

Gou Sheng stared at Li Ran with his round eyes, raised his head and said, "My grandma is not here, I went out, but my little uncle is at home." As soon as Gou Sheng finished speaking, a voice came from the room: "Dog Leftover, who's here?" A thin man wearing old cotton clothes came out of the house, this brother was Li San'er, the adopted son of Grandma Gousheng, and when he saw Li Ran standing in the yard, he said : "Is Brother Li here? What's the matter?"

"It's nothing, I'm here to take Xiaoyuan home. These are vegetables picked from the field at home. I'll give you a taste of them." Li Ran said as he handed over the basket.

Li San'er looked at the basket that Li Ran handed over, and quickly backed away, waving his hands and said, "This is no good, no, E-Mu said we can't always eat your food, it's not good."

"It's nothing, and it's not a good thing. Besides, my Xiaoyuan plays at your house every day. You help me take care of Xiaoyuan. These dishes are my thanks to you. Come to Gousheng, take this to the kitchen." Li Ran Pass the basket to Gou Sheng.

Seeing that Li Ran didn't pick up the basket, Gou Sheng quickly said, "Brother Gou Sheng, take it quickly, I have a lot of them at home, take it quickly." Hearing Xiao Yuan's urging, Gou Sheng reached out to take it. into the kitchen with the basket.

Li Ran led Xiao Yuan out of the yard, and the peeking people left quickly. Li Ran looked at the figure, a little strange, but didn't think much, and led Xiao Yuan home.It's getting late now, it's a little way away from Grandma Ji's house, Li Ran thought that he might as well go to Grandma Ji's house in the afternoon, just in time to see if the chickens hatched.

The husband of Li Er's family came back from the south of the village out of breath and went directly to Jin Hua's house.Jin Hua was cooking lunch alone at home. Li Dashan went to the fields to look at the water and hadn't come back yet. His ten-year-old brother Li Qing hadn't come back after going out to play. As for his son, since he was divorced, Unable to bear the pointing and pointing of the villagers, they often stay away from home and ask for money from home again and again. However, with the future of Li Ran's family's fields, they have saved a lot of money over the years, and they can still get the money. come out.

Jin Hua brought a glass of water to the still panting Li Er's family and asked, "What have you done? You're so tired. What can I do for you?" The husband of Li Er's family was named Feng Xiaohua , is Li Er's husband, and this Li Er is Li Grandma's second son.Li Er and his wife did not raise Ah Mu, and almost killed their own Ah Mu. They had a bad reputation in Jijia Village, and almost no one had contact with their family.And Jin Hua's reputation is similar to his, and the two people have the same virtues, and they gradually get together in a mess.

"I came back from the south of the village, guess what I saw in the south?" Feng Xiaohua took a sip of water and asked.

"What did you see?" Jin Hua was a little curious about what Feng Xiaohua saw and ran to his house so exhausted and out of breath.

"I have two acres of dry land in the south of the village. I went to see the vegetables grown in the field today, and found that your nephew could pick and eat the vegetables grown by your nephew, and I also saw that he gave Zhang Guihua and my old immortal Delivering vegetables at home. Let me tell you that his vegetables are very good. There is a vegetable farmer in my mother’s house who specializes in buying vegetables for a living. Their vegetables are always on the market earlier than others’. I picked it early to eat), and the ones you sell are also expensive. The vegetables your nephew grows can be sold for a lot of money. He grows so many vegetables, and he can give them to others. You are his uncle Ah, can't you go pick some vegetables and try something new?" Feng Xiaohua looked at Jinhua, her eyes were provocative and greedy, and said that he really wanted to eat the two acres of vegetables.

After hearing Feng Xiaohua's words, Jin Hua's mind turned quickly.He has no fields in the south of the village, so he doesn't know the situation, but judging by Feng Xiaohua's expression, he shouldn't be lying to himself.Then I thought, since that broom star planted so many vegetables and gave them away to others, I can indeed pick some and eat them.I haven't eaten fresh vegetables this winter, and I'm reluctant to buy more meat, and the birds are almost fading out of my mouth.

"You're right, I'll pick them tomorrow." At that time, we must pick more, save more time to eat, and sell them for money if we can't finish them.Now that everyone's vegetables are not on the market, if they are sold in the town, they will definitely sell for a lot of money, Jin Hua thought to herself.

Seeing that Jin Hua was moved by her words, Feng Xiaohua pretended to be a little worried and said, "Tell me, Li Ran won't let you pick vegetables!"

When Jin Hua heard this, her eyes became angry, and she said loudly: "He dares, I raised him, found a husband's house for him, and accompanied him with five acres of land as a dowry for him, and picked some vegetables from him, he dares disagree."

Feng Xiaohua quickly echoed and said: "That's right, you raised him, as the saying goes, life is not enough to raise him, you raise him, just like his parents, if he doesn't let you pick vegetables, it is unfilial. But when the time comes, you should pick more and share some with my family. There are no fresh vegetables to eat this winter, and only some wild vegetables can be eaten in spring. I also want to try something new."

"Okay, which one of our two families is with who? Besides, I still want to thank you for telling me about this, otherwise I will be deceived by that unfilial broom star nemesis. I will pick more and share more with your family." It's not my own anyway, so it's fine to give some to Feng Xiaohua's family.

After getting Jin Hua's positive answer, Feng Xiaohua went home happily, and would have fresh vegetables to eat tomorrow.

Li Ran took Xiao Yuan home and started cooking lunch.At noon, Li Ran used the freshly picked vegetables to make braised eggplant with red fruit, stir-fried beans, scrambled eggs with red fruit, and fried pork slices with pepper.The diet in Jijia Village is generally light, but Jinan and Xiaoyuan surprisingly like spicy food. They happily eat the chili in the chili fried pork slices, even though they are so hot that they stick out their tongues, they still keep their chopsticks.

After eating at noon, I took Xiaoyuan to take a lunch break. When I got up, Li Ran went to Ji's grandma's house, Xiaoyuan went to the Gousheng's house to play, and Jinan went to the field to see the water and the watermelon field by the way.

At Ji's grandma's house, Uncle Ji and Ji Dong also went to the field, and Wang Xiaoju was making clothes for her two sons at home.Grandma Ji's family lives well. Now is not the busy season for farming, and both grandchildren have gone to private schools in the village.The private school in Jijia Village was built with everyone's money. The husband is a scholar in Jijia Village who has failed the exam for many years. He can go to school after paying some repairs, no matter what it is.

Grandma Ji asked Li Ran to sit down, and asked Wang Xiaoju to pour tea for Li Ran. Li Ran hurriedly stopped her and said, "I'm here to see if the chickens have hatched. By the way, the vegetables at home can be picked. I'm thinking of you guys." It may be too late to pick, so I will send some to you.”

Aunt Ji looked at Li Ran's basket and said in surprise, "Hey, your vegetables are really good. If you pick them and sell them, they will definitely sell well. You must know that except for those vegetable farmers, everyone's vegetables have not yet been listed. Well, the price of your dish can be more than a penny or two. I will accept this dish this time, but you can’t give it away next time, after all, you have to make money to live by yourself.” Ji Ama called Wang Xiaoju Go to the empty basket, and then said to Li Ran: "The chicks have hatched, [-] eggs, and [-] chicks came out. I wanted to help you raise them for a few more days before sending them to you, but Since you came by yourself, take it back with you!"

Li Ran didn't go back until four o'clock at Grandma Ji's house.I put some pine wool and rice stalks in the basket, and put the chicken in the basket and carried it back.When he got home, Ji Nan had already returned from geography and was chopping firewood at home. Li Ran put the chickens into the circle that had been surrounded by bamboo, with some rice in a plate and water from the pond in a small bowl.

Li Ran plans to go to Pingyang Town to sell vegetables tomorrow. Originally, he wanted to pick the vegetables tonight, but he was afraid that the vegetables would be picked too early and they would not be fresh. Finally, he thought that since he had a car at home and didn’t have to drive, he would just meet Ji Nan tomorrow. Get up early to pick vegetables.
