Chapter 50 [050] Mulberry Spring Bamboo Shoots
My father and brothers stayed in the mountains for a total of four days. On the fourth night, they walked back from the mountains in the moonlight.
It is naturally very tired to get home, but there are hunger-resistant foods such as sweet potatoes and potatoes at home, which quickly replenished their energy.
When I saw sweet potatoes, I had to ask questions. My grandmother and my uncle said the whole story one by one. While my father was amazed, he also felt that the food in his mouth seemed to have a mysterious atmosphere, and he cherished it more and more.
It was too late, so there were no four bamboo baskets. This was not the first time everyone entered the mountain, so naturally they developed the habit of going back to the house to rest, and planned to come over and divide it the next day.
Because Zhuo Lin is young, she spends energy during the day and goes to bed as soon as it gets dark at night, so she doesn't know how loving her parents are that night. Even if she knows, she has to pretend not to hear it. Ha~~~
The next morning, Ah Niang cooked sweet potato bean dregs porridge and mixed with dandelions. The dandelions have the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying. They are a little bitter, but tender, and they taste very fresh.
After breakfast, my aunt led several brothers over, and everyone gathered together and looked at the four bamboo baskets they carried back curiously. It could be seen that they were very heavy and heavy, and I don’t know what I gained this time.
After all the things in the four bamboo baskets were poured out, Zhuo Lin saw the folded ear root at a glance. What a guy, just folded ear roots were filled with a large bamboo basket.
Among the other three baskets, spring bamboo shoots occupy two baskets. The gaps are filled with common wild vegetables, leaving a basket of baskets, half a basket of mulberries, and half a basket of... wild onions and wild celery? These wild vegetables are not old and easy to find!
As soon as he saw Houttuynia cordata, the fourth and fifth brother frowned. Obviously, he didn't like it. Zhuo Lin couldn't say he liked it or not. After all, he didn't have many opportunities to pick on it now, so she would be willing to eat it as long as it was food or not bark and grass roots.
"I plan to sell spring bamboo shoots and mulberries to the county town. I exchanged the money and sent a few children to school, right? I heard in the city that the school officially started on May 1st. Except for Zhuo Linzhuo, we will send all the others to our family. This time I made some money in the workplace. A child costs three yuan a semester. When these things are sold, we will make up the remaining money."
When the eldest uncle heard this, he hurriedly said, "How can that work? These children are all 10 or 20 yuan in total, it's not okay. I have money, so I don't need you, brother," he said.
"Sister-in-law, just listen to the head of the family. It's not easy for the elder brother to make that little bit of bean dregs outside. If we hadn't rely on the elder brother to help us, we wouldn't know what we would be like. Now is the time for us to repay us."
My grandmother quickly persuaded the uncle, and the uncle felt even more uncomfortable, "Then there is no need for so much money,"
Zhuo Dajun was unwilling to be concerned about this little thing like a woman: "Okay, this matter is settled. I will go to the market now. While it is fresh, it will be dry every few days and it will not be sold at the price."
When my mother heard this, she quickly helped her father put the purple-red mulberries and spring bamboo shoots into the backpack, then waved her hand and headed towards the county town.
As soon as my father left, my mother divided the two families of Houttuynia cordata with half of each, but did not divide the wild vegetables, but said to my uncle.
"Let's eat here at noon. We steam the potatoes and make them some potato vegetable buns to eat."
