Chapter 183 Wild Cherry

In his previous life, he had eaten wild vegetables for several years, which were bitter and unpalatable.

Especially the mother-in-law Ding, who is on par with Huang Lian, but they are rich in this stuff, so most of the wild vegetables at home are made of this. After eating it one meal and the next, it is so painful every day that even when I drink water, my mouth feels full. It tastes bitter.

But there was nothing I could do. During the most difficult time in my previous life, my mother-in-law had been dug up, and all the roots and bark of the trees were cooked and eaten.

After taking a bite of the wild vegetable paste with a bitter look on his face, Qin Ming couldn't eat anymore. "Mom, I'm a little sleepy. Let's go back to the room to rest for a while."

"Go ahead, you can't get used to eating these mushy wild vegetables, so just eat these scrambled eggs." Qin's mother felt sorry for her son who had never experienced hardship since he was a child, so she opened a small stove for him openly.

"No mother, I'm not hungry. I'll eat it when I wake up later. You guys share the eggs. I'll get up and cook them myself later." If Qin Ming didn't say this, Qin's mother would He asked Wang Limei to put the things in the pot to warm them, but after he said this, Qin's mother would not do so.

"Okay, go and have a rest, mother knows." Mother Qin muttered, and when Qin Ming left the house, she ordered Wang Limei to bake a few cakes and leave them in the pot after dinner. Wang Limei happily agreed. Because Qin Ming is here, she put a lot of oil in the scrambled eggs today, which is very delicious!

Qin Ming returned to the room and entered the system space. A thought filled the entire space with his consciousness. Grandma Ding was really suffering, so she might as well get some other wild vegetables out.

However, what makes Qin Ming speechless is that there are no wild vegetables in the system space. It seems that he has to go into the mountains to cultivate them himself.

Everyone in the family quickly went out. After Zhang Yinghong also went out to dig wild vegetables with a basket, Qin Ming opened the door and walked out. He first went to the kitchen to take out the cakes from the pot and ate them, and then found his way home. He carried his tattered backpack into the car.

The good backpacks these days are all used for production, and now they are all part of his father's work. Only these junk can be kept at home.

Some of the men in the commune are carrying water and some are repairing canals, while some of the women are loosening the soil and some are watering. Not far away, there are many elderly women digging wild vegetables with their children. Zhang Yinghong Also in this group of people.

"Daughter-in-law Dashan, that's the sixth kid from your family, right? Why doesn't he have a family today?"

When Zhang Yinghong heard Aunt Liu's words, she raised her head and saw her brother-in-law carrying a broken backpack. "My brother came back from leave and said he wanted to make something. We can't figure it out. I guess it's a good thing."

Zhang Yinghong replied casually, then stood up and walked towards Qin Ming, "Brother, what are you doing?"

"Sister-in-law, are you digging wild vegetables here?" Looking at the mother-in-law Ding in Zhang Yinghong's basket, Qin Ming's face turned a bit bitter. He must work hard to find some good wild vegetable seedlings today, otherwise he will have to suffer.

"No, the wild vegetables here are growing well. It's a pity that the shepherd's purse in this season is old. Otherwise, this thing would be more delicious." Qin Ming saw a piece of old shepherd's purse and was very happy. "Let me take a look, this shepherd's purse is indeed old." , it seems we can only wait until next year.”

While he was talking, he quietly put some shepherd's purse into the system space. As for Granny Ding, you can pull it off. This kind of heat-clearing, detoxifying and diuretic thing is actually not suitable for eating. After all, everyone's stomach is empty, where can it come from? Poisonous fever?

"Sister-in-law, please take your time and work while I go to the mountainous area to take a look."

"Xiao Liu, do you want to go into the mountains?"

"Oh, this is not fun. This mountain is so big. There are jackals, tigers and leopards in there. They are really cannibals."

When they heard that they were going into the mountains, a group of children digging for wild vegetables were ready to take action, but the old people quickly persuaded Qin Ming.

"It's okay, I won't go inside, just wander around the outside."

"Then you can't go there for too long. You'll come out after a while." Zhang Yinghong also knew that Qin Ming had a plan and warned him before continuing to dig wild vegetables.

"Uncle, can I follow you?"

"Uncle, I want to go too."

Cuicui and Zhaodi blinked and wanted to follow like two little tails. Qin Ming was going to transplant wild vegetables this time, so it was not easy to bring two little tails with him. They immediately refused and bent down to touch them. He touched the two little girls whose faces were stained with dirt from digging for wild vegetables and said, "That's not okay. You are too young. Just dig wild vegetables here and wait until I bring you back wild cherries to eat."

"Uncle, pull the hook." Cuicui's eyes lit up when she heard there were wild cherries. She stretched out her little finger to pull the hook with Qin Ming. Zhaodi also followed suit, "Uncle, you can't lie. Pull the hook."

"Okay, pull the hook!" Qin Ming stretched out his hand, pulled the hook with the two little girls, and then carried the broken basket into the mountain.

"From the Dashan family, these six boys in your family are good at coaxing people. Just saying wild cherries can make the children behave." The neighbors were joking with Zhang Yinghong. Zhang Yinghong was not happy when she heard this, even though wild cherries are now out of season. However, when he heard others disparaging Qin Ming, the old Qin family's shortcoming-protection gene taught by Qin's mother suddenly came out, "Why are you so talkative? How do you know that my little brother is tricking others? Let me tell you, He is a capable person, and he loves his nieces and nephews at home the most. Since he said there are wild cherries, he must have a way to get them!"

The neighbors looked at each other.

This Qin family is really not allowed to say anything bad about Qin Ming. Even if they joke, they will be scolded. However, everyone has been favored by Qin Ming and cannot even scold him back.

"Yes, yes, your sixth child is the most powerful."

"Oh no, let's go dig wild vegetables."

Everyone walked away with dark faces, turned around, but gathered together again, "What kind of season is it now? There are still wild cherries, the mulberries are almost ripe, and there are still wild cherries?"

"There were really wild cherries. I ate the basket."

"Old Qin's family said it's okay if it's available. We won't go back later. We have to see where the capable man in our commune gets the wild cherries."

"Are you interesting? If it weren't for Qin Ming, we wouldn't even have a cook now. Why are you still making such a fuss?"

"Oh, that's not what we meant, we were just curious. Aren't you curious that there are really wild cherries in this season?"

"It would be great if it really existed. It's always better to have something to eat. Just look at the wild cherries in the nearby mountains. Some unscrupulous person picked them before they were ripe."

Qin Ming didn't know that because of that wild cherry sentence, he had become the focus of gossip. At this time, he was looking for wild vegetables.

Although the mountain forest is large, there are not many wild vegetables. After running for a long time, I found some ash greens, purslane, wild amaranth, and pigweed.

Qin Ming didn't mind it either, so he planted all the wild vegetables he found, and after a combination of watering with psychic liquid and time acceleration, he harvested a large garden of wild vegetables.

He did not hesitate and directly harvested the mustard greens and put them into the broken basket, and then picked some wild cherries. This thing is quite delicate, so Qin Ming placed it on top of the mustard greens, put the broken basket into the system space, and then Then he walked towards the way he came.

When they were about to leave the woods, Qin Ming took out a sack from the system space and then brought in a few more pheasants. "Tonight, let's have a spicy chicken and a chicken stewed with mushrooms."

Anyway, there is it in the system space, and now there are conditions, so naturally we have to eat it, but there are only a dozen people. These days, everyone’s stomachs are short of oil and water, so they eat meat very ruthlessly. If there is less meat, there is simply not enough to eat, so he So I put six pheasants inside.

Holding the sack in one hand and the broken backpack in the other, he continued walking out of the woods.

The sun was setting, and the whistle of the commune's work was faintly heard in the woods. Qin Ming didn't want anyone to see what he was carrying, so he waited for a while, expecting everyone to go back, and then he carried the sack in one hand and the clothes in the other. The mustard greens and wild cherries walked out of the woods in their broken baskets.

But soon he stopped. There were many people outside the woods, and there were many voices talking.

Qin Ming listened carefully and found that everyone was waiting for him. As for the result of waiting for him, it was because he wanted to see if he could find wild cherries.

The wild cherries were nothing, but the pheasants in his hands were not convenient for people to see. Qin Ming decisively sent them back to the system space, and then walked out with a backpack.

"Here we come, Qin Ming is out."

"Hey, what is that red thing? Could it really be a wild cherry?"

While everyone was still discussing, Cuicui, Tiepi and other children had already ran over, "Uncle, uncle."

The soft and cute sound of a child makes people feel comfortable. Qin Ming happily agreed, "Run slowly, be careful not to fall!"

"Uncle, wow, there are so many wild cherries." Cuicui's eyes were shining as she stared at the wild cherries, and the other children were also similar.

"Here, wild cherries, how do you like them?" Qin Ming grabbed a small handful for several children who ran over. Cuicui took the lead and put it in his mouth, "Wow, it's so sweet."

"good to eat!"

"My uncle is the best!"

"This...really found it?"

The members were all stunned. They couldn't believe it. "Qin Ming, where did you find this wild cherry?"

"I can't tell clearly. The approximate range is between these two mountains. When I saw the wild cherries, I was just happy and came out after picking them."

"We've finished picking it. That's such a pity. I also said I would go into the mountains tomorrow to look for it for my gang of brats. Since it's gone, forget it."

"Hiss...there are mustard greens underneath these wild cherries, right? Are there such tender mustard greens now?"

"Mustard greens? Real or fake?"

Everyone naturally likes fruits like wild cherries, but they are not filling, so the adults can still control them. They asked Qin Ming where they were just wanting to try them, but mustard greens are different.

Wild vegetables have become everyone's food, but Po Po Ding is too unpalatable, but mustard greens are different.

"Sixth boy, where did you find the mustard greens?"

"Brother Ming, we are classmates. You can't enjoy such good mustard greens alone, right?"

……

Everyone surrounded Qin Ming, trying to find out the address of Mustard Cai. Suddenly, Qin Ming was directly surrounded.

At this time, Qin's mother came over with a large force of the Qin family.

"Bah! You're shameless and skinless, right?"

"Where else can you dig? The mountain is so big, you can dig wherever you want? What, do you have no hands or feet, or are your hands and feet tied up?"

"There are so many people in our family, and all these wild vegetables will be gone in one meal. Who are you, a green onion, and I want to give you some? When did I, Qin Fanglan, have a son like you? Why didn't I know?"

"Don't think that my Yaoyao is a good person and doesn't care about you, so you can bully him. If you want to find wild vegetables, you can find them yourself. There are food all over the mountains and plains. Don't take your ideas to us, otherwise don't blame me for being rude!"

Qin's mother put her hands on her hips and yelled at everyone. Some people were still unconvinced. Qin Ming was the most powerful person in their commune. If he asked what happened to the place, couldn't he go to another place to look for it?

"That's enough!" Li Hongbing also rushed over. Seeing so many people gathered at the foot of the mountain, his expression turned extremely ugly.

There are no secrets in the countryside. The news that Qin Ming wants to pick wild cherries for his children has spread throughout the commune.

When he saw someone coming over, Li Hongbing didn't pay attention to such a trivial matter. Who knew that he heard Qin Ming picking shepherd's purse? Li Hongbing knew that something was wrong. Although most of the people in the commune were good people, there were always a few disobedient people. If you are not convinced by the Qin family, why don't you start a fight?

Sure enough, when he came over, he saw Qin Fanglan, like an old hen protecting her calf, murdering people. Seeing the Wang family hiding behind to provoke people, Li Hongbing quickly stepped forward.

"I don't blame Sister Fanglan for being angry. Look at what you did."

"You have to calculate even a little bit of wild vegetables, how can you be so short-sighted?"

"Not to mention that Xiaoliu has helped you many times, even with your own cooking pot, you can't even do this to steal people's food."

"If you have the ability to go into the mountains to find food by yourself, if you don't have the courage and ability, then stop being annoying!"

Li Hongbing was the president of the commune and had already established his prestige. After being scolded by him, everyone left in despair.

"Xiao Liu, it's my fault that I didn't teach them well, but you also understand that the current situation..."

"Uncle Hongbing, please stop talking. I know everyone's difficulties and I won't take it to heart. Please come back quickly." Qin Ming interrupted Li Hongbing before he could finish speaking. , and there is also a severe drought, so it is normal for everyone to feel a little panicked.

"Really? You don't care anymore?" Li Hongbing asked still worried.

"I've written down the leaders." With Qin Ming's words, Li Hongbing understood that someone else was about to suffer.

"Hey, this time they were greedy and made a mistake. It's hard for me to plead for mercy. But after all, we have lived together for so many years. For the sake of love, can you not make things too big?"

"Sure, no problem!" Qin Ming didn't want to kill people, break off their feet or hands, so he directly agreed to Li Hongbing.

"Steamed buns, Cuicui, my uncle will give you wild cherries. You go to the field department to play. Remember, your friends can share the wild cherries, but these people can't give them." Then Qin Ming broke out There was a long list of names, and without exception, they were all children from the house that had just been chosen. The corners of Li Hongbing's mouth twitched.

This Xiaoliu is really a bad guy. He wants to guide the children in the whole commune to isolate the children of those families.
