Dressed as a farmer group pet

Chapter 235 235 Zhang An
Working is also addictive, especially when it pays off.

It rained again two days ago, probably because of this rain, the spring bamboo shoots came out one after another like grass.

The soil is still wet, so gently dig it out with a small hoe, and then break it off with your hands.

It took less than half an hour for the two sisters to go up the mountain, and the back basket was full.

Xiaomi saw it, this is not acceptable.

"Second Sister, you dig first. I'll peel off the shells of these bamboo shoots first. Let's take the bamboo shoots home. Otherwise, this basket won't hold much."

Xiaoxue's basket was also full, and upon hearing what Xiaomi said, she dragged her own basket over and dumped the bamboo shoots inside in front of Xiaomi.

"Then you peel it first, and I'll go and have a look around, but it's easy to change color after peeling off the shell, we'll take it home and soak it in water later, and then dig wild onions."

Xiaomi is already sitting on the ground: "Okay."

The surrounding area had already been dug, so Xiaoxue went to a place a little further away.

After Xiaoxue walked away, Xiaomi rolled his eyes, moved his butt, and then dug up with a small hoe.

There is that kind of big bamboo in her space, but there is no such small mottled bamboo.

When I sat down just now, I felt a small pointed point that just popped up next to it. After digging twice, it turned out to be a bamboo shoot.

But this time, she didn't break it off directly, but dug all the way down, and finally got to the roots after digging very deep.

As long as there is such a root, it can develop freely in space, and she doesn't care about it at all.

There are a lot of bamboo shoots from the big bamboos that used to be stored in the space, some are fresh and some are dried, and she often takes them out to eat.

As long as it is something at home, she will often exchange it with those in the space, and let everyone eat the taste of the space.

I have to say that the things in the space are indeed more delicious in terms of taste and texture, and they are easy to distinguish.

Ever since Xiaomi was able to walk on her own, the things at home often suddenly taste better.

However, for so many years, he has never been suspected.

Probably, this is just a habit.

The small bamboo shoots were put into the space, and the hole was filled again, and Xiaomi began to peel the shells of the bamboo shoots.

I have already had experience in the morning, and it will be easier to peel it now.

The bamboo shoots fell on the ground, and the peeled bamboo shoots were placed in the basket. After a while, there was a pile of bamboo shoots next to them, but there was not much bamboo shoots.

In order to prevent the bamboo shoots from turning black, Xiaomi sprinkled some spiritual spring water on the bamboo shoots. Unexpectedly, after a while, ants and beetles were found coming here.

She was so frightened that she quickly lifted up the basket, piled up all the bamboo shoot shells, put the basket on top, and kept it as far away from the ground as possible.

In a place a little farther away, some spiritual spring water was placed again to attract the attention of those little bugs.

Not long after, Jiang Xiaoxue came back with a basket of bamboo shoots on her back. There are indeed a lot of bamboo shoots, and it is impossible to dig them all!
Digging bamboo shoots is faster than peeling bamboo shoots!
After peeling for a while, Xiaomi became a little impatient, and simply patted his butt and stood up.

"Second Sister, let's dig more and ask Daddy to carry it back tonight. He and Uncle Qixi will get it all back in one trip."

The main reason is that their small baskets are too small, and the bamboo shoots are sticky. It is said that they are two or three baskets, but in fact it is not much. One basket is estimated to be two or three meals at most!

If we go back a little more, everyone can pack these things up while resting after eating, which is much more convenient than the slow peeling of the two of them on this mountain!
Xiaoxue hesitated for a moment: "Okay, then I, no, let's take the peeled ones back first, and then bring a big back bag."

Originally, I wanted to say that I would go back alone, but before I could say anything, I remembered the last time Xiaomi fainted on the mountain, so I quickly changed my words.

"no problem."

She just likes to do things with action. Sitting all the time is not what she is good at.

The two of them went back with their baskets on their backs. Millet had already been peeled on his back, and Xiaoxue carried a basket of bamboo shoots on his back, and there was a pile of bamboo shoots left on the mountain.

When we went back, Uncle Liu was the only one in the family. He learned that they were digging bamboo shoots, so he took a hoe and went up the mountain together.

However, when I walked halfway up the mountain, I saw children from the village coming up this side of the mountain. Looking at the clothes, they were probably also digging bamboo shoots.

Xiaomi looked back a few times, and felt that the child in the lead looked familiar, but he was a little far away and couldn't see clearly.

When Uncle Liu saw the pile of bamboo shoots, he was surprised and said, "Hey, there are so many on this mountain."

Xiaomi returned to his senses, and stopped looking at the children down the mountain: "By the way, there are so many bamboo shoots here, it's very convenient to dig."

"It just rained two days ago, the bamboo shoots must be good, maybe there are mushrooms, you stay here first, Grandpa Liu will go and have a look."

Saying that, Uncle Liu really went inside again.

"Grandpa Liu, be careful, don't go too far." Jiang Xiaoxue hastily urged.

"Don't worry, Grandpa knows that you two are nearby, so don't run too far." Uncle Liu's hearty voice came from the front, and he seemed very happy.

After arriving at Jiang's house, Uncle Liu became visibly more energetic.

If you directly compare Uncle Liu a few years ago with Uncle Liu now, it is more obvious that Uncle Liu now seems to be younger than when he first arrived at the Jiang family a few years ago.

This is also one of the reasons why Liu Bo would rather live in Jiang's house than to be served by his servants.

In the past few years, apart from occasionally going out to give people a geomantic omen and designing a house map, I have hardly left Jiang's house.

Well, except last year for special circumstances.

As soon as Uncle Liu left, the children came up on his back.

There is only this bamboo forest here, and they are in the edge area, so it is inevitable to meet them.

Both Xiaomi and Xiaoxue are not the kind of people who are familiar with outsiders. When they see people they don't know, they just want to give way. Anyway, the bamboo forest is so big, and everyone is busy in their own way, so no one will be in the way.

However, when those children passed by them, the boy in the lead suddenly stopped and looked at Xiaomi.

"I really want to meet you. Are you Miss Jiang's family?" The boy said looking at Xiaomi. Although his skin was dark, his eyes were bright.

Xiaomi was taken aback, and nodded: "Our surname is Jiang, but don't call me Miss. We are also country children just like you. My name is Xiaomi, and this is my sister Xiaoxue."

Although I don't like to get together with children, but they all take the initiative to say hello, so it can't be too impolite.

The boy who spoke looked like seven or eight years old. Xiaomi had seen him before and felt a little familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere before, but he couldn't remember it.

"The children in the country live in such a big yard. My father said that those who can live in that yard are rich masters."

Among the several children, the boy was the most courageous, and the others looked at them, curious, but did not speak.

Xiaomi shrugged: "If you don't believe it, forget it. Which rich master have you met who would go to work in the fields by himself?"

Her parents have been working in the field every day recently, so they thought it was fake.

It seemed reasonable to say so, and the boy believed it.

"Well, by the way, my name is Zhang An, and my father is the village chief. Are you also here to dig bamboo shoots? In fact, there is a bamboo forest in front of this mountain besides this one. The bamboo shoots there are bigger and better."

It turned out to be a child of the village chief's family. No wonder these people seemed to be led by him all the time, and Zhang An seemed to be more courageous.

Bigger shoots, though?

Xiaomi's eyes lit up immediately: "Can we go together?"

The taste of big bamboo shoots and small bamboo shoots is different, but the big bamboo shoots are easy to dig!And it's even bigger!

Zhang An seemed happier than Xiaomi: "Of course, anyone can dig the bamboo shoots on this mountain."

Another boy behind him tugged at Zhang An's sleeve, frowned, and even looked at Xiaomi with a bit of hostility, and said to Zhang An, "Maybe there are not many bamboo shoots in the bamboo forest over there."

This bamboo shoot is also a dish, and it can be sold for money. Everyone wants to dig more. Who knows that Zhang An is so generous!
Xiaomi also noticed it, and was about to say that he was not going. Anyway, he knew there was one ahead, and it would not be too late to go after these people left, so there was no need to make trouble for himself.

But before she could speak, Zhang An glared at the boy: "Bamboo shoots grow every day, so what are you afraid of, let's come back tomorrow."

"No need." Xiaomi said hastily: "Go first, we still have to wait for Grandpa, we can't leave yet."

It can be seen that, except for Zhang An, no one else seems to welcome them.

That being the case, there is no need to follow along, so as not to be boring.

"It's okay, we're not far ahead, if your grandpa comes back later, we can hear you when he calls."

Zhang An obviously still wants to invite Xiaomi to join him.

Knowing that he was kind, but Xiaomi hesitated for a moment, and shook his head: "Forget it, you go by yourself, and we will go together next time we have a chance."

Zhang An wanted to say something more, but Xiaomi had already pulled Xiaoxue aside, so Zhang An could only give up.

"Then we can go together next time."

After saying this, Zhang An reluctantly left.

Well, is it reluctant to part?The expression is weird.

After they were gone, Xiaomi and Xiaoxue continued to work.

"Xiaomi, does that Zhang An know you? Why does he keep looking at you?"

Xiaomi shook his head: "It looks familiar, but I don't know it. I probably saw it when I was in the field."

After all, it hasn't been long since they came to Xiangmu Village, and she has been lying at home for another half a month. It was normal for them to meet each other when they occasionally went to the field.

"Then think about it carefully, you are rarely outside, have you met somewhere before?"

That Zhang An has been talking to Xiaomi, obviously he recognizes or has seen Xiaomi.

Xiaomi recalled it for a while, and what the second sister said was right, she had very little time to go to the village, and the people she met were very limited.

Soon, Xiaomi suddenly realized: "Oh, I remembered, the day before we entered the city, didn't my little brother and I bring back some water hyacinths?"

Xiaoxue nodded.

"That was the time when we used a branch from the field next to the pond, and when we returned it, we were almost taken for a thief."

"It turned out to be him, the child of the village chief's family."

Who is the village head, she has not seen yet.

Strictly speaking, it has been almost a month since they settled in Xiangmu Village. Because of the rain, going up the mountain, and fainting again, her time to go to the village is very limited.

So far, the villagers I have met seem to be the group of children just now.

Four boys and three girls, all about seven or eight years old.

Children who are only this age will go out together, and if they are older, they will basically start to avoid suspicion, except for their own sisters, otherwise they will not go out together again.

Jiang Xiaoxue nodded thoughtfully: "Stay away from that Zhang An in the future, he will be obedient."

The so-called diligence for nothing is not a traitor or a thief.

That Zhang An just now had been enthusiastic and wanted to invite them to dig bamboo shoots together, which made Xiaoxue very vigilant.

Even if Xiaomi didn't refuse in the end, she would never agree to go together.

Although she seldom goes out and interacts with outsiders, Jiang Xiaoxue has heard many stories about Ren Yazi.

They hadn't been in Xiangmu Village for a long time, and they didn't know anyone well. At this time, someone suddenly appeared and was very enthusiastic about them. Even if they were children, she felt that he was a bad person.

Xiaomi is so smart, he understood what Second Sister meant in seconds: "Don't worry, Second Sister, I am not a child anymore, after Xiaohei and Xiaohei give birth to the baby and finish confinement, I will take Xiaohe with me when I go out!"

Sure enough, Xiaoxue nodded, as long as Xiaohei was with her, the family would feel at ease.

Speaking of Xiao Hei, her stomach is already very big now, and she should give birth in about half a month.

So I've been staying at home recently, raising food and drink, rarely going out, and letting it out in the morning at most.

It probably understands by itself, so it usually doesn't run too far.

It is said that a dog becomes an adult when it is one year old. Their Xiao Hei was brought back when Xiaomi was one year old, and he is now six years old.

It can be regarded as an older mother, so the family is very careful.

Er Niang, who has always been frugal, even boiled an egg for Xiao Hei every day to ensure its nutrition.

If other people in the village knew about this, they might secretly say that they were a waste.

The two sisters talked for a while, and then continued to dig bamboo shoots. After digging the two baskets they brought, they went down the mountain to dig wild onions.

When Xiaomi was digging the bamboo shoots, his eyes were still busy searching around, and after a while, he had no choice but to give up.

"Second sister, do you often look for wild boar grass in the village recently? Have you seen any pig skin holes?"

It is Houttuynia cordata, but people in the village like to call it Zhupi Kong, which is different from the name Xiaomi heard in her previous life.

However, this Houttuynia cordata has many aliases, no matter what it is called, as long as the thing is that thing.

This Houttuynia cordata is a must-have on the dinner table every spring. This year until now, I haven't tasted it yet.

Jiang Xiaoxue didn't raise her head: "Pig skin holes are very common, there should be some here too, but we haven't found them yet."

Well, it seems hopeless.

As soon as Xiaomi's eyes rolled, a piece of Houttuynia cordata root appeared in his hand, it was an older section, and he couldn't eat it anymore.

Throw it into the hole left by digging the bamboo shoots, and then bury the soil back, and she will do this every time she digs a bamboo shoot.

She still doesn't believe it, after waiting for ten days and half a month, she will definitely be able to eat it!
