Back To Qiqi Farming To Raise Children

The next morning, Xu Shiyan rode away early again.

At seven or eight o'clock, according to what Xu Shiyan said, Su Anying hung the cow hair on the open space in the yard.

Anyway, the Xu family has a big place, so there is room for everything.

Before going to bed at night, Xu Shiyan told Su Anying how to bask in the buffalo hair. Su Anying was smart and knew it as soon as he heard it.

During the day, I specially carried my son to the neighbors to see how they rub and dry, and then I followed suit.

Drying cattle hair is not directly drying, so that a line will be dried out, which is not necessary at the buying station.

The sun-dried cows have a lot of hair, so they have to be rubbed constantly, and they have to be rubbed hard, but they can't be rubbed too much.

Knead it with a sack under it. When it is half dry, step on it with a sack, and then knead it into a ball before drying.

The kneaded and sun-dried ox hair is broad, purple in color, twisted and curled up, which makes the vegetables look thick and good-looking.

Xu Shiyan went up the mountain to collect vegetables, while Su Anying coaxed the children to dry the cow hair at home.

The young husband and wife think about one thing and exert energy in one direction, are they still afraid that they will have a bad day?

On June 9th, the fourth day of the fifth month of the lunar calendar, Su Anying took advantage of the time when the cow hair was drying, went to the back woods and came back with a basket of oak leaves.

The glutinous rice and the big yellow rice were soaked in water separately, Xu Shiqin came back early in the afternoon, and the sister-in-law coaxed the children to cook while making zongzi.

Eating zongzi in these years is not so particular, and there are no candied dates to put in it. Jujubes are rare things.

Fortunately, Su Anying has a way. Soak the big white beans in advance and boil them with some sugar.

When making zongzi, put some beans in it, it tastes sweet and soft, and the taste is also very good.

The rice dumplings were wrapped, and the rice was cooked. Just when Xu Shiyan came back, he hurriedly ate the rice and had to blanch the beef.

"Before this time next year, I will set up a pot in the yard, and let's put it outside to scald the beef.

Otherwise, in this hot day, the kang will be so hot that no one can sleep at night. "

Xu Shiyan complained while working.

In fact, he didn't think about going so far this year. He didn't have a bicycle at home. How could he go so far without a bicycle?

After buying a car, I hurried into the mountains to collect vegetables. I didn't have time to set up a stove, so I could only make do with it.

"Let's go back early tomorrow, I'll buy some gauze and nail the windows.

When it was too hot at night, the windows were left open and gauzes were nailed on to keep mosquitoes out. "

The weather is hot, and the kang is also hot, so it's really hard to sleep at night.

Open the window, lest mosquitoes come in and bite people, don't open it, the room is like a steamer, it's so hot at night that I can't sleep.

If a stove is set up outside, all the things that consume firewood are made outside, and the kang in the house is burned once a day to ventilate, at least it is not so hot.

Everyone understands what Xu Shiyan said.

Especially recently, two pots of cow hair are scalded every night, and the kang is hot to the touch.

Fortunately, the kang is big, so they try to sleep on the top of the kang, at least better, if they sleep on the top of the kang, they will be cooked.

The three of them were plucking ox hair outside, and rice dumplings were still cooking in the pot.

After a stove fire, no more firewood was added, and the pot was tightly covered so that it was so stuffy.

After a night of boredom, get up early and eat directly, neither cold nor hot is just right.

On the morning of the fifth day of the lunar new year, Su Anying cooked six eggs, and there was no need to cook other meals in the morning, just eat the dumplings and eggs directly.

After eating, the three of them packed up their things, Xu Shiyan took off the rocking cart and tied it firmly to the back of Dajinlu's bicycle.

Then I put my son in it and pushed him away, so that I don't need to be hugged, and it is comfortable.

On the handlebar in front, there are still two zongzi hanging from Jiangmi.

This thing is usually rare, take it back to give parents and children a taste.

Xu Shiyan pushed the cart, Su Anying and Xu Shiqin walked, taking advantage of the fact that the morning wasn't too hot and the road didn't suffer too much, so they went back to the big house.

When they got to the riverside to take the boat, Su Anying held the child in her arms, and Xu Shiyan moved the bicycle onto the boat.

Uncle Liu saw Xu Shiyan and the others, and he was quite enthusiastic, "Since you moved out, you haven't come back for some days.

Yo, did you buy this bike yourself? Or else San'er has to be capable, and the bicycles are all bought, all right. "

The group crossed the river with their bicycles, and this time they didn't have to put the child in the stroller anymore. Su Anying held her and soon arrived at Xu's house at the east end of the village.

"Father, mother, we are back." Xu Shiqin shouted first after entering the door.

"I just said, I don't know if you will come back for the holidays? Hurry up, let me see Xiao Yuanyuan."

As soon as Zhou Guilan heard the movement, she hurried out of the house and took her grandson over without saying a word.

"Hey, this fat boy, look at him, he's white and fat, he's just like Yingzi."

Su Anying was born fair, no matter how much the sun tans, she doesn't get tanned, but her skin turns red.

People call this kind of skin color the angry sun, but it is actually cold white skin.

Xu Haiyuan slept all the way, and woke up when crossing the river just now, feeling very refreshed now.

Being hugged by grandma, neither crying nor fussing, she looked around with big black eyes.

As a result, as soon as he entered the room and saw the situation in the room, the child burst into tears with a whoosh.

Everyone was taken aback, "What's the matter? I remember that Yuanyuan didn't like to cry. I never cried when I hugged him."

Zhou Guilan was also stunned, she was the one who took care of her during the confinement, the little grandson was so easy to coax, what's wrong?

"Maybe he's hungry? He fell asleep all the way and just woke up."

Su Anying took the baby and went to the side to nurse, the baby stopped crying after all.

Here, Xu Shiyan handed the zongzi to his mother.

"Mom, this is the welfare of the sixth child. Two catties of glutinous rice, wrapped in zongzi, bring some back for you to taste."

It's too early to get up, the store hasn't opened yet, and I haven't brought anything else.

Zhou Guilan smiled and took the zongzi, and hurriedly called her granddaughter.

"Feng'er, go to your second uncle's house, call Xiaobo Xiaotao, and say that third uncle brought them rice dumplings, Jiangmi's, come and taste."

In these days, glutinous rice is a rarity, and glutinous rice dumplings are rare.

It doesn't matter if adults eat this bite or not, let the children taste it.

As soon as Xu Jinfeng heard about the glutinous rice dumplings, he immediately put on his shoes and went to the Li family in the west of the village to find his two cousins.

Here, Xu Shiyan sat down and talked to his mother about Xu Shiqin's work.

"Mom, I have another good thing to tell you. The sixth child has a job, but was left in the tailor shop by her master.

Apprentices, the salary is not high, and it will rise slowly later. "

In the beginning, they were called apprentices, and those who did not pay wages are now called apprentices, which means apprentices with wages and the same benefits as workers, but that is absolutely different.

Zhou Guilan was very happy when she heard that, "Really? My God, that's great. My daughter is going to be a worker."

Originally, among the six children, Zhou Guilan was most worried about the third and sixth children.

Now that the third child has moved to Donggang, life is getting better and better, and the sixth child's work has also been arranged.

Workers of the Forestry Bureau, this is a good thing that many people dream of leaving the crop yard and having a rice bowl of food and iron in the future.

"Old girl, you have to thank your third brother very much. Without your third brother taking you out of our broken valley, how could you be a worker?"
