Chapter 36(2/3)
Don’t hold too much hope! Don’t cry if you have empty baskets.”
"ah?"
Yin Xiaoman blinked and couldn't react for a moment.
——When you go to the vegetable field for a walk and talk?
How idle is this?
Looking at her expression, Cui Yan explained to her for a long time. After a while, Yin Xiaoman realized that because the land area was really small, the vegetable fields in the camp could be said to be able to use all the places that could be used.
Not only is the vegetables intercropping, but the surrounding ridges are also very narrow.
In addition to ensuring the training land for soldiers, other places can be said to be worth every inch of land, but no inch of land is allowed.
Therefore, there are so few places where you can go to wild vegetables.
It is difficult for a family of four like them to dig up enough food. Sometimes they may not be able to dig up the bottom of the basket for the whole morning.
Where can this number be eaten by the warriors in the previous battalion?
There are only a few people in the kitchen team, and there are not enough people to schedule, so there are no idle people to waste this time.
In addition, they have to draw people to drive the sea now, so they don’t look down on this kind of thing.
So they came to dig some wild vegetables, and no one would say anything.
After hearing Cui Yan's words, Yin Xiaoman was a little disappointed, but he still had some fantasies.
As for wild vegetables, there are fewer quantities but many types?
Dig a little like this and a little like that, maybe you can get a lot back.
Besides, with so many of them, the children have great benefits and may not be able to gain a lot of money.
As they spoke, they arrived at the vegetable field. At the moment they finally saw it, Yin Xiaoman was stuck for a moment, and then suddenly understood what Cui Yan said about the concept of every inch of land.
Just, there are vegetable fields next to the runway, and there is not even an excessive amount in the middle.
On the roadside, at the base of the wall, under the trees... they were all cultivated diligently by the young soldiers in the kitchen, and planted crops such as macaroni that do not have high requirements for land.
There is no empty land everywhere.
Yin Xiaoman couldn't help but look at Cui Yan again and asked with a bitter face: "Sister-in-law, where are there wild vegetables?"
Not to mention wild vegetables, she looked at them for a long time without even a weed.
"try to find!"
Cui Yan waved her hand and shouted at the children: "Look for me, shepherd's purse, amaranth, wild leeks, everything is fine! If you have found too many, let's go back to make dumplings!"
When the children heard about making dumplings, they suddenly felt excited and they didn't need to urge them to scatter and ran away.
Cui Yan pointed at Tianlong with her finger and said to Yin Xiaoman: "Let's look for it. Be careful not to break the other person's vegetable fields. You should be able to find something."
Seeing her confident look, Yin Xiaoman followed her obediently as she spoke.
This trip to digging wild vegetables was really as Cui Yan said, just to take the children out for fun.
In Yin Xiaoman's words, it is - relying on this dish to eat, the whole family will starve to death.
Their six people were looking for them for almost two hours and then dug two baskets.
At this point, Cui Yanshi couldn't stand her, so she dug up and put it in, and then covered it with it.
——I also said that making dumplings, but it’s not enough to make two nests when I go home.
Although I didn't dig much wild vegetables, the children were still very happy with my mother coming out to play with me.
After working for half a morning, everyone didn't feel tired, jumped and jumped. The little mouth kept getting stuck, and no one felt that they were dry.
Of course, after all, the word "eating" is still inseparable from Cui Yan's words "making dumplings" just now, which aroused the children's greed, and they were all trying to recall what the dumplings they had eaten had tasted.
Cui Yan is from the north and naturally makes more pasta at home.
In addition, her mother's family has many brothers, and she is just a girl. In fact, her family is spoiled whether before and after getting married.
Not only did she not need to supplement her family, she also wanted to give her all the good things.
Therefore, her family’s financial conditions are not bad, and the children live much better than ordinary children.
As for Dabao and Erniu, who looked like their mothers, they never even knew that there was dumplings before Yin Xiaoman came.
The only time she had eaten was that she had packed it for them after she went to Shuanggui Village.
But that time, it was also a very good memory for the two children.
Faced with Qiangzi and Huzi's show-off, he was not inferior to dealing with it.
Especially Erniu, although she was young, she was the most powerful among the four children, and she sucked one by one: "The dumplings made by my mother are the best in the world!"
"My mother gave us white noodles! It was filled with egg stuffing! There was also meat, so much, all of them were meat!"
"Really?
All meat?"
Hu Zi was young, and when she heard that she said that, she couldn't help but swallow.
"Well, it's all meat, big pieces of meat, and you're so greasy!"
Erniu raised her head, looking proud.
That little look made Cui Yan laugh, and she still joked with Yin Xiaoman: "How much does Xiao Shen send you living expenses in a month?"
You gave them dumplings full of meat?"
The expression was filled with disgust: "You are such a prodigal son, you really can't live a life."
Yin Xiaoman's depressed stomach hurts.
She had just arrived at that time and was not very familiar with the situation. She just felt that the two children were tight-mouthed and did not treat them seriously in their food.
The New Year pork that Zhang Jinfeng and his wife brought was really cut half of it and made them a big meat dumpling.
But even if it is true, I can't admit it now?
!
She had to answer with a embarrassed look on her face: "You believe the child's words, Erniu is bragging."
Although the matter was covered up in just a few words, their dumplings were long and short, which made Yin Xiaoman want to eat meat too!
In her previous life, she was in the palace. No matter whether she liked it or not, she always had all kinds of meat every day.
But after she came here, she hadn't eaten fresh meat in a long time, except for seafood and the big piece she had brought with her earliest in-laws.
This person, you can't always think about anything. Yin Xiaoman suddenly couldn't wait to think about it.
My mind is full of "braised pork", "stewed pork with rice noodles", "stewed pork with bamboo shoots", "guerre meat"...
I can't even swallow the saliva in my mouth.
She suddenly remembered the shrimps she sent to Lichun yesterday, and I don’t know if she used them?
I thought I had to go over and take a look at it at night.
After arriving at home yesterday, Yin Xiaoman immediately sent the shrimp to Lichun.
I was afraid that the shrimp would die if they left the space, so I went to the imperial kitchen to get a large soup basin and poured the shrimps into it with the sea water they had previously placed.
After putting the shrimp into the wooden cabinet, she also wrote a note, but this time she did not indicate the price, but directly ordered a chicken, and specifically stated: "A fat chicken"!
The chicken soup stewed at Cui Yan's house that day was so fragrant, but unfortunately there were too many people, so she basically didn't eat anything.
So many months have passed and I still miss it now.
But no one raises chickens in the camp, so please ask someone to buy them. This depends on luck. Anyway, she hasn't bought them yet.
So after giving the shrimps, Yin Xiaoman’s first reaction was “chicken”!
But now she suddenly regretted it again. She would have known that she would have asked for another piece of fat pork.
Thinking of this, Yin Xiaoman couldn't help swallowing again, and felt that he had changed.
My aunt Xiaoman was once a person who never tires of eating fine stews and fine pork. She also has fat pork?
She was impatient to touch the delicacies of mountains and seas.
Alas, the environment changes people.
With such random thoughts, a group of people went home.
After saying goodbye to Cui Yan, Dabao and his sister came into the house to do the exams, and she ran to the kitchen to get busy.
The grouper I bought yesterday must have steamed today, otherwise there is no explanation for how I can keep my life alive.
The wild vegetables I picked up have to be made, no matter how little they are, it is the fruit of their mother's labor for a few half a day, right?
The two little guys must show off to their father at noon, and the little guys will be unhappy if they have nothing.
As he muttered in his heart, Yin Xiaoman's movements did not stop at all.
There are three kinds of wild vegetables I picked up this time, shepherd's purse, wild amaranth, and a little bit of onion celery.
