Pamper Eighties

Madam Feng walked up to Mengmeng and found that the white thing seemed to be planted in a pit. Mengmeng was busy working for a long time, but she just dug up the floating soil on its surface, and it looked like it was still deep underneath.

Mengmeng was so tired that her face turned red, and she was still digging. Madam Feng quickly pulled her away, checked her little hand, and said distressedly, "Look at this hand, it's all red, dear baby. Just watching from the side, grandma help you dig out this group of things, big baby and two baby, come over to help soon, you are not long, you guys, let you look at my sister, you almost lost my sister to me , quickly bring the shovel and dig, and be careful not to damage this blob."

Madam Feng had a shovel in her back basket. She greeted her two grandsons and began to dig a hole. Lou Guizhi and Miao Lihua also came to help. Everyone dug and dug along the edge of the white ball, digging deeper and deeper, and finally dug out on the ground. After a deep hole, the white stuff was finally fully exposed. It looked a bit like a rectangle, but also a bit like an oval. It was a big piece of white and tender. What.

Miao Lihua moved her sore arm, stared at the white thing and said, "What the **** is this thing? I haven't seen it before, have you seen it? This thing still grows so deep underground, it will Could it be the root of some tree? It's like that sweet potato, I don't know if I can eat it?"

Among so many people, only Lou Guizhi was more familiar with the plants on the mountain, but after thinking about it for a long time, she couldn't think of a reason, so she shook her head and said in confusion, "I can't tell you either, not only have we not seen this thing before. , I have never even heard of it. You say it is the root of a tree. The root of a tree does not look like this. It has no skin on the outside, and it grows so white in the soil Contaminated with dirty things, I don't know what this thing is, let's be careful, this kind of strange thing might be poisonous."

But Mrs. Feng thought that what Huzi dug up should be a good thing, so she said boldly: "No matter what it is, let's get it up and take a look."

She cautiously went down to the bottom of the pit, bent over and wanted to pick up the lump. Unexpectedly, her hand just touched the skin of the white lump, and her hands were covered with mucus. She was frightened. With a big jump, I quickly retracted my hand, and put it under my nose to smell it, but it didn't smell much, but the sticky hand was a little uncomfortable.

Seeing her standing at the bottom of the pit for a long time, Miao Lihua couldn't help but say worriedly, "Aunt, aunt, are you okay? Why are you standing there in a daze?"

Madam Feng finally came back to her senses. She thought to herself, she had already dug it out anyway, and she must get this thing out. She waved her palm and said to the people next to her, "Get out of the way, all of you. A little, I'm going to get this thing up, you don't touch it yet, it's sticky on the outside, it's all mucus, be careful it gets on your hands."

Madam Feng bent down and picked up the thing again, and found that it was quite heavy, at least 20 to 30 kilograms, that is, she was in good health now, otherwise she would have an old lady carry such a heavy thing She might not be able to do it when she moved it up. She exerted all her strength and finally moved the mass in her arms to the ground next to the pit. Everyone immediately gathered around, and no one dared to reach out to touch it.

After so much time, Mrs. Feng had already made up her mind, so she stretched out her hands in front of everyone and said, "This thing shouldn't be poisonous, I just got my hands full of mucus, and it doesn't hurt or hurt now. Itchy, his sixth aunt, can you see what it is?"

Lou Guizhi circled around it for half a circle, and stretched out her hand to press it, only to find that its skin was very elastic like a lifebuoy. After returning to its original position, the skin was still sticky and smooth, she shook her head helplessly and said, "I really can't tell what it is, I have lived in this Longling for many years, and I haven't heard of it. Said something like that."

Even the doctor Liu Aunter didn't know what it was, and Miao Lihua didn't even know it. Madam Feng was also very confused. She didn't dare to take this unclear thing home easily.

Just when she was still hesitating, she heard her little granddaughter's coquettish voice: "Grandma, I like it very much, let's take it back."

Madam Feng immediately stopped hesitating, "Since you like Mengmeng, let's take it home, you wait, grandma put it in the backpack, it's quite heavy, okay, put it in Now, there is no place to put other things, why don't we go back?"

Madam Feng picked up the back basket and was about to take everyone back when Hu Zi suddenly broke through the bushes next to him and rushed in. Madam Feng hurriedly shouted inside, "Hu Zi, you What are you doing in here? We should go back, come back soon."

"Ouch..." Huzi's big head stuck out from the bushes, followed by its two front limbs, pulling the bushes aside, and stepping on the ground sideways, smashing the The place was completely opened, and everyone stood outside and looked in, and was surprised to find that there was actually a small road inside.

The big baby stared at this place and suddenly patted his head and said, "I remembered that the group of big wild boars came out from here last time."

Madam Feng didn't dare to go in, she just stuck her head in and looked around. Sure enough, on the ground not far away, she saw a few clumps of wild boar dung that had been dried into clods. She instantly understood that it must have been stepped on by a wild boar. The animal way, she clutched her chest and said a little scared: "We have broken into the den of wild boars. There will be no wild boars here, right? Huzi Huzi, what are you doing in the front?"

Huzi ran to the end of the animal path in the blink of an eye, and looked back at them, as if he wanted to let them go in. He gestured with his eyes and gestured again, and found that these people were still motionless, he buried his head and walked away. After running away, the sound of rushing water was heard from a distance after a while.

When Mrs. Feng heard the sound, she thought to herself, the tiger is the most spiritual animal. It will definitely not come out like this for no reason. Maybe there is something good waiting for them in front of her. After making up his mind, he waved his hand decisively and said, "Let's go, let's follow."

Everyone carefully walked in along the beast path, all the way along the way, their eyes widened and they looked around. Everyone else was paying attention to whether there were beasts or something. Only Mrs. Feng wanted to find the treasure, but the road was very narrow, and There was nothing special. When they finally walked out of this path, they suddenly became enlightened. There was an open space not far in front of them, and a very small stream was flowing through here, and the ground was covered with fine pebbles. , and a lot of low weeds grow.

Everyone walked out of it. Madam Feng kept her head down and aimed at the ground. She originally thought that there would be some good things like gold here, but she didn't expect them to be the most common pebbles, and she couldn't see anything unusual. .

Hu Zi was standing in the stream at this moment and playing around. It was as if he had come across some fun toy, splashing the water all over the place. Madam Feng finally gave up when she saw this. No matter how smart Hu Zi was A beast, maybe it had brought them here just for the sake of playing in the water.

This open space is a rare gap in the jungle. The winter sun shines down brightly, making them feel warm and comfortable. Looking at the deep pine forest opposite, they can smell the fragrance of pine trees. Everyone came here, The mood couldn't help but open up.

Lou Guizhi unloaded the back basket on the ground, washed his face by the stream, then walked to the big stone next to him, leaned his back on it and said, "Let's rest for a while, the scenery here is good, let the little ones drink Some water, we'll go later."

Madam Feng also came to the creek to wash her hands and washed all the mucus she had just stained on. Then she walked back and took out the kettle from the back basket, and waved to Mengmeng, "Mengmeng, come and drink some water. , you haven't had any water since this morning, don't be thirsty."

Mengmeng obediently ran back to drink some water, then jumped and ran to the side to play. Her cousin, cousin and brothers were also running around, everyone played hide-and-seek around the stone, and suddenly came from behind the stone. The big baby's voice came: "Grandma, there are orchids here, come and see."

"You little brats know how to make a fuss. What's so strange about orchids? We have planted so many in our house, and the pots have burst. After removing several pots, there is almost no place to put them."

The old lady Feng said that she was very disgusted, but her steps did not stop. She went around the big stone and walked to the back. Sure enough, she saw a few orchids under the stone roots. It hasn't bloomed yet, and I can't tell what species it is. I only know that its leaves are sparsely scattered and spread out, and there is no sight at all.

She curled her lips and began to bury her: "These orchids are too shabby and not lively at all. I want to tell you, the primroses are the most beautiful among orchids, and when the red flowers bloom in spring, Not to mention how festive it is, the miserable little broken flowers in our house can’t compare to it, if it wasn’t for Mengmeng, I would have thrown them away long ago.”

The eldest child and the second child have already taken out the shovel, and said to Mrs. Feng in a very serious manner, "Nah, my sister said that she likes orchids very much. Let's dig these orchids home and raise them."

As long as it is something Mengmeng likes, Mrs. Feng has no objection. Anyway, there are already so many small broken flowers in the house, and it is not bad to plant them all together. Watching the excitement on the side, the big baby and the second baby are still in their mouths: "Be careful when you dig, don't hurt its roots, orchids are the most delicate thing, if you hurt the roots, you can't live, you put it Dig up the soil next to it, shovel it out as a whole, and wrap it with a little moss, eh, that's it, put it in your own basket."

Mengmeng also stood on the side and watched, she looked very happy with the corners of her mouth up all the time, all the things here are what she had planned to take home, especially the white balls, even Huzi said it was Good things, she will take them all home, there are many good things in Longling, and she will bring them back in the same way.

Mengmeng waited patiently for the brothers to finish digging the orchids, and then pointed out her little hand to the stone and said, "Those are also."

Madam Feng raised her head in the direction she was pointing, and saw a low green plant growing in the crevice above the stone. A small plant grew out of each crevice, and it was like a bamboo joint. Similarly, a small leaf can grow on each node, and it looks almost like a weed, nothing to be rare.

Madam Feng disliked it in her heart, and said to her Mengmeng: "This thing is not as good as an orchid, it looks so bad, why dig them back? Grandma knows that you like flowers, so stay tuned. Let's go out in a while. I'll dig some impatiens on the hillside outside for you to go back. The flowers are beautiful, and they can dye your nails red. We don't want this thing? Take it back It also takes up space.”

"Oh, I do know this kind of herb," ​​Lou Guizhi stepped forward and observed it carefully for a while, and said with surprise: "Yes, this is a kind of herb, we call it immortal grass here, Bai Niangzi Have you all heard the story of ? In the legend, in order to save Xu Xian, the white lady ran to heaven and stole the life-saving immortal grass. It is this kind of herbal medicine. It seems to be called Shidou or something. Now, the pharmacy outside also collects this kind of undead grass. I heard that this thing is very beautiful when it blooms. You can dig it back and plant it in the yard or on the roof. When it blooms, it should be worth seeing. This grass can be saved. Man, I also dug a few plants back to plant them."

Lou Guizhi went up with the shovel. Madam Feng heard what she said and started digging with the shovel, but Miao Lihua had no interest in them. In the end, the undead grass was wrapped up by Madam Feng and Lou Guizhi.

After digging the immortal grass, everyone had almost rested. Madam Feng raised the basket and greeted everyone to go back. They returned along the original road. It was almost noon. The fog in the woods finally dissipated, and the noon sun was shining through. Passing through the mottled tree shadows, it was like a jumping elf swaying in the forest, so Mrs. Feng could not help but say with emotion: "This place is really magical, it looks very spiritual, no wonder it can grow Ganoderma lucidum and undead grass. There's this weird white blob."

They returned to the road along the hillside, and just halfway there, they met their eldest son who was coming down from the hill and was going home to eat, and there were many men from the village beside him.

Seeing them, Feng Yimin said curiously, "Mom, why did you all come to the mountain? Mengmeng, you came too, are you tired? Dad carried you away."

Mrs. Feng stopped him and said, "Don't hold her, let the tiger carry her. Come and help me take the back basket. This thing is too heavy."

Feng Yimin hurried up and took the basket. He thought it was filled with ganoderma lucidum and should have no weight, but he didn't expect it to be quite heavy in his hand. He became curious, stretched out his hand and pulled it into the basket, and asked Mr. Feng. Tai said: "Mom, what did you put in? Hey, what is this thing? Why is it still sticky?

"Don't ask me, I don't know. Let's go back quickly. We've been busy all morning, and Mengmeng should be hungry. Let's go home for dinner soon."

Madam Feng felt relaxed without anything in her hands. She put Mengmeng on Hu Zi's back and let Hu Zi walk with her on her back. She took the eldest baby and the second baby to speed up the pace and hurry up. Back at home, Su Wan had already prepared the meal and was waiting in the main room.

Madam Feng took Mengmeng off Huzi's back, pushed her little head and said, "Mengmeng, you go to eat first, and grandma takes out the things in the basket first."

Mengmeng turned around and said very sensible: "Mengmeng is not hungry, wait for grandma to eat."

Madam Feng was so moved by her that she seemed to drink honey, so she quickly took out all the ganoderma lucidum in the basket, and when it was the white ball, she was a little bit troubled, she frowned and said, "This thing doesn't work. If people know each other, what should I do?"

Su Wan also came out of the room to help, she stared at the snow-white ball for a long time, but couldn't see what it was, and said in confusion, "Mom, where did you get it? "

The old lady Feng said casually: "We dug it on the mountain, and it was growing in the soil at that time, why don't we just bury it in the soil?"

Mengmeng heard this and quickly took her grandma's hand and said, "No, don't plant it in the soil, but raise it in water."

Mrs. Feng didn't agree with her very much, and explained to her patiently, "Such a big thing, it takes up a lot of space in the water, and we don't have such a big jar in our house."

The older one was more clever. He pointed to the broken water tank at the end of the corridor and said, "Milk, let's keep it in that water tank so that it won't take up space."

Madam Feng gave him a "you're very nice" look and said, "That's a good place, this thing looks so white, but you can't get it dirty, that water tank hasn't been used for a long time, It must be very dirty inside, I'll go and clean the water tank, you go and eat first, Yimin, come out and help me fetch water."

The little dolls refused to leave and stayed in the yard to watch the fun. Madam Feng cleaned the broken water tank and asked her eldest son to pour water into it. She didn't stop until the water overflowed the gap. He threw the white thing in, closed the lid, and greeted his family, saying, "Alright, alright, let's go back to eat, Mengmeng, come over, grandma help you wash your hands, let's wash up and eat quickly, you. You must be hungry."

After the whole family had lunch, Mrs. Feng began to prepare to deal with Ganoderma lucidum. She collected so many wild Ganoderma lucidum from the mountains, and they were all piled up in the corridor. She moved out a small bench and sat on the edge, holding a brush in her hand, The floating soil on the surface of the wild Ganoderma lucidum was cleaned, and classified according to their color. Finally, they were tied with twine and hung in the main room.

This is a light job, and the big baby and the second baby are also rushing to help. They have all tasted the taste of wild Ganoderma lucidum. Seeing so many wild Ganoderma lucidum, they are a little greedy. With so many wild ganoderma lucidum, how do you eat it?"

Mrs. Feng had already made up her mind, so she smiled at them and said, "These wild ganoderma lucidum are all good things, keep them for our family to eat slowly, and then share a little with your second and third uncles. You keep that white Ganoderma lucidum for Liuwa to eat."

Eating wild ganoderma lucidum is very good for the body. Madam Feng has experienced it herself. Of course, she will not forget about the second and third children. Anyway, it is something that does not cost money, so she will give them some, they If it feels good, then go to the mountain to pick it.

Although she thought so in her heart, when the old lady Feng came to the end, she still picked out the smallest wild Ganoderma lucidum, which happened to be two black and two purple ones, both of which were about the same size. She kept the other Ganoderma lucidum. Okay, then I shouted loudly to the second and third family next door: "The second and third family, all come to my house, I have something for you."

At this moment, the two families next door had just finished eating. Chen Hongmei heard that her mother-in-law was going to give something. She ran faster than anyone else and dragged her cumbersome body to the uncle's house next door, looking at her expectantly. The mother-in-law said, "Mom, do you have anything good for me?"

Madam Feng did not answer her. After Zhao Chunhua arrived, she took out the wild ganoderma lucidum and said, "I just picked up a few wild ganoderma lucidum when I went up the mountain today. Aunt Liu said that they are good things to nourish the body. You can take it home and try it. It can be stewed into soup or stir-fried in vegetables, but remember it for me. The whole family can eat this kind of black, and the little ones can't eat more. This kind of purple can only be eaten. Leave it for the second and the third to eat, the third family, if you are pregnant, it is best not to eat it, don't eat it without getting sick, but eat it, this white flower..."

Madam Feng said halfway through, and suddenly caught a glimpse of Chen Hongmei's disappointed expression, and changed her mouth to say, "Isn't Liu baby often runny nose? Aunt Liu told me that this white wild ganoderma is specially used to treat his disease. , you asked him to come to my house for dinner these few days, and I made it for him myself."

From the bottom of her heart, she doesn't trust the third family. She is a very irresponsible mother who doesn't care about Liuwa at all. Snot, it's not because she wears too little that she catches a cold. Liuwa is still young and doesn't feel it, but she can't get down to the root of the disease. Otherwise, it will be troublesome when he grows up. She doesn't feel bad for Chen Hongmei, and she also feels bad for being a grandmother.

Madam Feng explained them carefully, and then sent them back. As for what they want to eat, she doesn't care. Anyway, the wild ganoderma has been given away. Some old ladies are like old mothers all day long, rushing to serve the whole family, but often they don't have a good end. When they get old, they are kicked around like a ball by their sons and no one cares. In her opinion, such an end was made by the old ladies themselves. They didn't educate their sons well, and they didn't know what to do.

She went back to the main room and took out those ganoderma lucidum, and hung them on the beam in a string. With so many wild ganoderma lucidum, she had to think carefully about how to eat it. After thinking of her old man's suggestion, she decided to get some to soak. liquor.

Madam Feng walked out of the main room and was about to go to the kitchen when she saw her two grandchildren were planting orchids. They didn't know where they got a hollowed-out old tree root and were filling it with soil. .

She walked over curiously and said, "Where did you get this root from? It's still very nice."

Dawa was planting orchids in the soil, and without looking up, he said, "The fifth grandpa gave it to us. He said that this kind of root is the best way to grow orchids."

Dawa and Erwa finished planting orchids, and they were busy planting immortal grass. The job was simple. They planted the immortal grass in the gaps of the wall, and then filled it with a little soil to see if they could survive. Just look at them.

Dawa looked at these undead grass with satisfaction, and smiled and said to Mengmeng: "Sister, when they bloom later, you can see flowers all over the wall, you wait, brother will give them a little more water. ."

Madam Feng hurriedly stopped him and said, "You little hands are dirty. Let me help you water. Come and wash."

Madam Feng turned around and was about to walk to the well when she inadvertently caught a glimpse of Xiao Jin standing on the edge of the broken water tank. Go down and get some water.

Madam Feng immediately became anxious, "Xiaojin, how can you drink this water? The white stuff is soaked in the water. I don't know if it is poisonous. What if you are poisoned?"

She waved her hand to drive Xiaojin away, but she didn't expect that Xiaojin didn't see it, Lai refused to leave, and bent her head hard to get enough, and finally let it drink the water in the water tank successfully.

This time, Mrs. Feng is a little strange. Xiao Jin is so smart. He must know that the water is not poisonous before drinking it. Sometimes animals are more clever than humans. Seeing that Xiao Jin drinks so well, she can't help but doubt. When I got up, I just thought that the white thing must be something rare and fun.

She walked over and opened the lid. The water inside was clean and looked very clear. She picked it up and smelled it, but there was still no special smell. She didn't dare to drink the water, so she scooped a little and poured it on After thinking about those undead grasses, I added some to the sink of the chicken coop. Let's try them first, if there is no problem.

She put the lid of the water tank back on, then clapped her hands and said, "Okay, hurry up, wash your hands, go back to the house and go to sleep, I'm going to the food station to get some drinks, Mengmeng, do you want to stay at home and sleep, or do you want to go to bed? Are you going with grandma?"

Of course, this little follower Mengmeng is going to follow, she immediately said with a smile: "I want to go with grandma."

"Okay, then, grandma goes to the kitchen to get two jars, you wait here obediently."

Madam Feng took out two large ceramic jars from the kitchen and tied them to the basket behind the bicycle. Each basket contained a jar. She turned back to the house and walked out with a small windmill in her hand. He handed it to Mengmeng and said, "Grandma will hold you and sit on it. Put your legs in the basket so that you won't fall, let's go."

Mengmeng was sitting on the back seat of the bicycle, holding the small windmill in her hand. It was made by her grandfather specially for her. It was dyed red with cardboard and made into a windmill. It was fixed on a bamboo stick and faced the wind. It kept spinning, leaving cute and happy laughter along the way.

Madam Feng rode a bicycle to the commune, next to the grain station. She had experience bypassing the store in front of the grain station. There were only grain traders and no wine sellers. Anyone who was familiar with the situation knew where to get wine. .

She came to the side door next to her and said to the old man in the porter, "I want to go in and get some wine."

The old man also opened the door naturally and let Mrs. Feng ride in. There is a big square inside. After riding out, you can smell the smell of wine, and following the smell of wine, you come to a place At the small entrance, Mrs. Feng parked her bicycle outside, took Mengmeng off the back seat, and walked in with two wine jars.

The door is facing the small counter, and a young man in his twenties stood inside very energetically. When he saw the jar in Mrs. Feng's hand, he said, "Oh, you guys are from Taoyuan Village, are you going to be drinking? ?"

In the whole commune, only Taoyuan Village is close to the sea. People there occasionally fish out ceramic pots from the sea. Almost every household has several. When they see these pots, others will know that they are from Taoyuan Village.

Madam Feng nodded and said with a smile: "Comrade, you are really good-looking. That's right, I came from Taoyuan Village. I want to make two cans of wine, about 20 pounds."

The young man looked out and said, "Have you brought food?"

Madam Feng took out the food stamp from her pocket and said, "I don't have much food at home. I will buy it with you with the food stamp and money."

The grain station here receives grain, and some of it will be turned into wine. When people in the commune need wine, they will carry some grain and make a little extra money to exchange for wine. When the refined rice is given out, it is easy to exchange it for food stamps. Anyway, the old man of her family often eats in the provincial capital. She has a lot of food stamps in her hand. I gave 5 yuan and bought 20 catties of rice wine.

The young man saw that they were old people and children, and he was very diligent in helping them move the wine jars out and put them in the basket behind the car. Madam Feng thanked him and rode on the bicycle very smartly and said, "Mengmeng, let's go. , go home and make Ganoderma lucidum wine."

Madam Feng left the grain station on her bicycle, passed the commune next to her, and gradually disappeared at the end of the road. Behind her, a sullen look stared at her, waiting for her figure to finally disappear. Niu Xingsheng walked out of the gate of the commune.

In his heart, he hated the old Feng family. His wife's nephew, Wang Gouzu, was given a suspended death sentence because of the last incident. He couldn't save Wang Gouzu, so he could only watch him die, even Even he himself was almost unable to protect him. Fortunately, the police had no evidence, and his old leader tried his best to protect him, so he was not implicated.

But he failed to steal the chicken this time, instead he lost several handfuls of rice. He didn't get a penny, and he folded all the dog's legs in it, and also used up all the favors of the year. Next time something happens, old man The leader will definitely not care about him anymore. He didn't get any benefit at all, but he suffered so many losses and paid such a heavy price. He was so angry that he hated the people of the old Feng family even more, and even hated Taoyuan Village. Thinking of this, he wondered in his heart whether he should stumble the people of Taoyuan Village a little.
