Chapter 5

Passing through a bamboo forest, looking at the small bamboo shoots emerging from the ground, she smiled and went forward to dig. Haha, when I was not full, my grandfather took her to dig bamboo shoots to eat. The taste is crisp and sweet, and it is delicious raw. Spring bamboo shoots and The taste of winter bamboo shoots is the best.This bamboo forest is located in a dark and humid place, and the nearby soil is wetter than other places, so the bamboo shoots here grow very well.

Well, it's really delicious, especially for a hungry person like her.There are so many, it is not a problem to eat for many days. After eating a few in a row, I feel that my stomach is [-]% full, so I dig a few more and go home.

Mrs. Zhang saw that she had picked up a large bundle of firewood, and finally showed a satisfied expression, and asked Hehua to put the firewood away, and cook lunch with her.

The lotus washes and chooses the vegetables and cuts the vegetables, and cuts the bamboo shoots into slices. Seeing this, Mrs. Zhang asked, "Why did you cut the bamboo?"

Lotus put the washed bamboo shoots away: "This is very fresh and tender bamboo shoots, and the taste is also very good."

"Go, go, I've seen people eat bamboo for most of my life. Don't take it and throw it away."

"It's really delicious, I have eaten it when I was in the mountains."

"What, you eat raw ones too?" Mrs. Zhang looked at her in disbelief. Could it be that she was really hungry.

Looking at Mrs. Zhang's expression, the lotus flower became weak for a while. Does this place know that bamboo shoots can be eaten?Be sure to convince her that for a poor family, having that piece of bamboo shoot can add a lot of food. "Cough, mother, think about it. The men in our family go out to work every day. How can they not be full when they go home? When the children are growing up, malnutrition is not acceptable."

Mrs. Zhang hesitated: "No matter how poor people are, they don't see eating bamboo!"

Why do people here not distinguish between bamboo and bamboo shoots? The lotus is a little anxious, "It's not bamboo, it's bamboo shoots. I've eaten it. It won't poison people, and it tastes good. It's delicious when fried. Why don't you try it first. Look, maybe everyone likes it."

It's not that Mrs. Zhang is so cruel that she doesn't cook enough food for her family. It's just that her family is poor and can only live on a tight schedule.Everyone in the village came here like this, but it's okay to try it once.So I agreed.The two were busy preparing a meal.

Wu Jiafan and Wu Anhe came back from school first, and then went out to work.When Mrs. Zhang saw that everyone had arrived, she ordered Lotus to bring the food to the table.

Mrs. Zhou went to call Wu Cuicui out for dinner. The two of them walked out all the way. It was obvious that Mrs. Zhou was flattering Wu Cuicui. He Hua didn't understand why Mrs. Zhou was flattering her, so she couldn't help but look at her a few more times. The fabrics are much better than this group of people. Only Wu Jiafan in the whole family has this kind of treatment. It really depends on the clothes. She looks very elegant and refined, standing out from the crowd in this messy village.

"Hey, what is this!" Mrs. He asked, picking up a piece of bamboo shoot.

Mrs. Zhang explained: "These are called bamboo shoots, which are picked up by lotus."

"Is this kind of thing edible? Don't make anything wrong with it."

Don't care about those on the children's table, they have already started to grab it. "Wow, it's delicious."

He shouted: "Xiaofu, Xiaoyi, be careful what you eat and kill you."

Seeing that their mother was angry, the two children stopped and saw that other people were robbing them.

He shi was so angry that his face was black and white.

"Okay, as long as you can eat it." Wu Shan said and started to move his chopsticks.

Everyone talked when they saw their father, so they didn't say much.Eating silently.Only Wu Jiafan's eyeballs were rolling.

Not to mention, the bamboo shoots taste really good.It was the first time for the Wu family to eat this dish, and this dish bottomed out the fastest.Not to mention children, they would snatch the plates and lick them, and the lotus flower chopsticks were so frightened that they didn't know where to start.

After the meal, He Hua cleaned up the dishes, cleaned the kitchen and came out. Everyone had already left, and she probably went out to work again.

Mrs. Zhang saw lotus flowers coming out.Immediately greeted him with a smile: "Lotus, have you washed the dishes?"

Lotus was a little flattered, unable to react for a while, tremblingly said, "Yes, yes!"

Mrs. Zhang took her hand: "This child, mother bought you because she liked your cleverness."

"Well, lotus knows it all."

"This bamboo shoot is a good thing, and the head of the family likes to eat it very much. What mother means is that you dig more."

"I also have the same idea, by the way!" He Hua thought for a while: "I can take back the delicious food when I find out later."

Mrs. Zhang smiled and said: "Of course, but don't forget to collect firewood. We can't waste time working."

This time, Lotus came out with an extra basket on her body, and she was picking up firewood respectfully.Suddenly she heard someone calling her name, but she didn't see anyone when she looked up, but the voice was still there, and it sounded like the little emperor at home——Wu Jiafan.

Isn't this little ancestor going to school? Why did he come here? He Hua doesn't want to stay with him, he is still her fiance in name.

The sound was getting closer and closer, not knowing if there was a place to hide here, Lotus looked around.There is only a slope in front, and it is temporarily hiding there.After a while, Wu Jiafan came here.But he couldn't find anyone, and no one answered after shouting a few times. He was so angry that he cursed: "Where did this damn lotus hide?"

Lotus hid under the slope and kept rolling her eyes.Go out only when you are sick.

Feeling that there was no sound from above, it should be that he walked away, but He Hua didn't go out immediately but waited for a while, there was really no movement, how could a child have such patience.The lotus thought proudly: Fight with me, you are still young.

Pat the dirt on his body and stand up.How could I expect to meet a pair of big black eyes as soon as I raised my head.

"Ah, why are you still here?" He Hua was startled and almost fell down.Fortunately, I stood firm so I didn't make a fool of myself.

Wu Jiafan laughed loudly: "I knew you were hiding here, and I often come to this place to play."

What an unlovable child, Lotus ignored him and walked forward in a muffled voice.

Wu Jiafan was very angry when she saw that she ignored him, and took her arm: "Hey, how dare you ignore me?"

"I'm going to pick up firewood, but I'm not as leisurely as you are."

"Where is my leisure time? It's very tiring to go to school every day."

"Going to school is also called tired? Wu Anhe also goes to school, and he has to help with things when he gets home. I didn't see him calling tired."

"You don't behave like a woman, but you are my wife." Wu Jiafan accused.Mother said that a daughter-in-law must listen to her man.His understanding is that Lotus must listen to him.

Lotus was shocked by his words, were all the children so mature in ancient times?Don't be too proud to see his complacent look.Pointing at him and saying only one sentence: "I said you skipped class today!"

Wu Jiafan stared at her dumbfounded: the lotus is about to turn upside down.
