Chapter 526 Harvesting Autumn Vegetables

Xu Haiyuan came in later than his younger siblings, because they didn't come first in the class, and the teacher normally left homework for the students.

The fourth grade is naturally different from the second grade. During the five-day holiday, the teacher left a lot of homework for the children.

"What is this for? Picking vegetables?"

As soon as Xu Haiyuan entered the door, he saw his grandmother leading his younger siblings to work in the vegetable garden, so he hurriedly asked.

"Our grandma said that the weather may change and the temperature will drop. We should pick these vegetables and put them at home. They can't be eaten if they are damaged by frost."

Xu Jinping replied while picking peppers.

"Oh, then I'll help too. Wait a minute, I'll change my clothes."

When Xu Haiyuan heard this, he didn't go to study with his teacher anymore, he went to change his clothes first, and quickly helped pick vegetables.

Zhou Guilan led the children to pick beans, cucumbers and peppers in the front yard, while Xu Chenghou planed celery root and ghost ginger in the back garden.

The ghost ginger is also called the frost flower. It is said that the ghost ginger blooms for [-] days and there will be frost.

The underground tubers of ghost ginger, pickled pickles are delicious, especially crispy.

The farmyard is like this every autumn, and all kinds of edible things are taken home.

Pickle everything that should be pickled, and save it for winter and spring to eat slowly.

The concert ended at ten o'clock in the morning, and the children were busy in the vegetable garden for an hour.

Seeing that it was late, Zhou Guilan hurried back to the house to cook, while Xu Haiyuan and the others continued to work.

When Zhou Guilan cooked the meal and called the children to eat, all the eggplants, peppers, and tomatoes in the vegetable garden were picked.

Basket after basket was sent to the warehouse for storage, and they were slowly tidied up. Those that should be marinated were salted, those that should be dried were dried, and the rest were kept for a few days to eat.

After lunch, Xu Haiyuan and the others went back to work at home.

Xu Shiyan's family has a big place, and there are more vegetables in the vegetable garden.

In addition to vegetables, there are also Xu Jinping's favorite mushrooms, grapes, sand fruits, etc. It is best not to let Shuang beat them.

Mushroom girl can't eat after being beaten by frost. The grapes are better, but after being beaten by frost, the taste is not right.

Xu Shiyan's family grows several kinds of sand fruits, including crab apples that can be eaten in summer, and abacus beads and small apples that are only delicious in autumn.

These have to be picked off, otherwise they will not taste good if they are frozen.

With so many things, the children can be busy for a while.

In the afternoon, the sky became even more cloudy. Before we could pack up our things and go home, it started to rain a little.

"Hey, let's hurry up, it's time to play big later."

Both Xu Chenghou and Zhou Guilan speeded up, and the children hurried back to carry the vegetables.

They were tidying up here, and after a while, it rained heavily, and everyone had to run back to the house.

"Well, if it's raining today, if it's sunny tomorrow, there will be frost the morning after tomorrow.

You are on vacation for five days, just in time for the weather, so you can't do anything. "

Zhou Guilan entered the room, patted her clothes a few times, and said.

"Grandma, we don't do anything, just accompany grandma to clean up vegetables and pickles at home."

Xu Jinping's clever mouth made everyone confused when coaxing anyone.

"Okay, okay, then let's put the pickles at home tomorrow." Zhou Guilan really smiled happily.

After working for a long time, I finally picked up everything that should be picked.

It was raining outside, and I couldn't do anything else. I just picked the red pepper, threaded a part of it, and kept it to dry.

Xu Jinping also found a needle and thread, and threaded Gu Niang'er into a few strings.

Of course, it is the skin of Gu Niang's outer skin. Wearing it like this and hanging it up will prevent the skin from being rotten, and you can still eat it for a while.

In the evening, Zhou Guilan stewed potatoes with eggplants.

The tender eggplants are not big, they are bigger than eggs, they are just split in two, and stewed with meat, the taste is very good.

The children had been busy for a long time, and they didn't miss this meal at night, so they felt that the stewed tender eggplant was delicious.

The rain didn't last long, and it stopped in the evening, and the temperature outside suddenly dropped, and it was cold.

When Yang Junxian came to pick up Yang Haoyu in the evening, Zhou Guilan was afraid that the child would be cold, so she specially found a thick dress for the child to wrap around it.

"If you two are too busy to take care of the child, it's the same to let him live here."

Now, Zhou Guilan completely treats Yang Haoyu as her own grandson.

Yang Jun is now the secretary of Dongshen Village. He is busy in autumn. The village has to collect tasks and calculate various expenses.

Moreover, his family also grows mallets, and they have to grow ginseng to make goods. This autumn is extremely busy, and the couple really can't take care of their children.

Yang Junxian's father was ill the year before last, and his third sister took him to the city to raise him and was not at home.

Some time ago, Yang Junxian's mother also went to the city, and now no one cares about Yang Haoyu.

So Yang Haoyu didn't go to class in the afternoon and didn't go home, so he stayed at Xu's house.

"Thank you ma'am, alas, this autumn is really busy.

If there is no aunt to help take care of our Xiaoyu, the child will not know what he will be like in the fall. "

Yang Junxian had to express his gratitude to Zhou Guilan.

"Ever since I started my child's schooling, I've almost grown up with my aunt. Oh, I don't know how to thank my aunt and uncle."

"Look at you, you're just talking nonsense, isn't Xiaoyu the son of Shiyan and his wife?
This is the same as your own children. " Zhou Guilan laughed.

Yang Junxian wrapped his son in a thick coat, carried him onto the bicycle, and then drove his son home.

Zhou Guilan watched Yang Junxian and his son leave, turned around and entered the room, and began to mutter.

"Oh, everyone is so busy that they don't care about anything.

Our family is also the same, and they haven't come back yet. "

Xu Shiyan was still busy processing the goods at the venue, while Su Anying led people to pick the grades and pack them.

At the beginning, I received orders for [-] catties, and in the past two days, two more customers called to place orders.

So in the past few days, Su Anying took Huang Shengli and their daughter-in-law together to go to the market to grab goods, and when they came back, they picked grades and packed boxes. They were busy every day until late.

"How can it be hard to make money? It's better to be busy. If you are busy, you have money to earn.

The two of us can't do anything, so we just serve the children. "Xu Chenghou is quite open-minded.

The son and daughter-in-law are now spreading such a big stall, and they can't do anything else. It's better than anything else to take good care of the children.

"Yeah, let's not think about anything, just take good care of the child.

That day, the third child asked me if I wanted to open a store or something for the remaining two houses in the north.

I told him, forget it, I'm too busy.

We have something to eat and drink now, so what are we going to do with that? "

Zhou Guilan nodded. When you are old, don't think about being competitive. You should take good care of your grandchildren.

"Yes, you're right to think so, we are all at this age, why are you still making such a fuss?

It's not bad to take care of a few children and grow them up.

My son and daughter-in-law are all busy outside, so let's take care of the house and cook and take care of the house so that they can have a warm meal when they come home, which is good. "

Xu Chenghou has no other thoughts now, as long as his son and grandson are good, he is better than anything else.

While the old couple were talking, Zhou Guilan put the food in the pot, then scooped out hot water, and called the children to wash their feet.

Before eight o'clock, the children were all sleepy, so they coaxed them to go to bed.

It was after nine o'clock when Xu Shiyan and Su Anying entered the house. Neither of them had dinner, and they were so hungry that they ate and rested.
