In the morning, after Shen Ruolan finished her breakfast, she took a basket, found a sickle, and went to the mountain to dig the wild vegetables she was thinking of.
It's not that she loves wild vegetables, but that she wants to try wild vegetables for hot pot. If they are delicious, her family's hot pot restaurant can import a lot of them, and they will definitely sell well!
Of course, you can also remember the feelings of digging wild vegetables when you were a child, and by the way, pretend to be a literary and artistic young woman to express the joy of spring!
Shouya also went with her. Now that there are more Dong'er and Dong'er's grandma in the house, she can leave with peace of mind and do something she wants to do if someone is watching.
"Lanya, let's go to Xiaodongshan to dig. The celery and hemp vegetables there are thick, and there are a lot of bitter hemp vegetables, as well as mother-in-law diced and small garlic!"
When it comes to digging wild vegetables, Shouya can be called an expert. In the past, at this time of year, she would dig them from dawn to dusk, then dry them and save them to satisfy her hunger in winter when there is no food at home.
It's a pity that no matter how much she digs, when the family can't open the pot, she must be the first to go hungry. All the wild vegetables she dug have naturally entered the mouths of her grandma, parents and brothers. share...
Thinking about the past, it was simply not human life. Looking back now, how did she survive those years
Compared with the current life, compared with the past, it is the difference between heaven and hell!
When I arrived at Xiaodongshan, which is the mountain east of the village, I saw many women and half-grown children on the mountain, some were digging wild vegetables, some were collecting firewood, and some little ones came to play with the adults at home. son of a bitch.
Seeing Shen Ruolan, everyone greeted her warmly.
Guishengzi's wife said: "Lanya, why are you here? Didn't Daqing's wife dig wild vegetables for your family? Why, she didn't dig enough for you to eat?"
It turns out that since the wild vegetables came out, Qiuping's sister-in-law has taken the initiative to help Shen Ruolan's family dig wild vegetables and feed those chickens and goose babies. If she was kind enough to take other people's food for nothing, she would do her best to help her with the work. No, as soon as the wild vegetables came out, just in time for the chickens and geese at home, Qiuping's sister-in-law took over the work of digging vegetables. Every day, I dug up a basket full of vegetables and sent them over, and I still insist on it until now.
Shen Ruolan said with a smile: "Sister-in-law Qiuping dug for chickens and geese, and I dug for our own food."
"Emma, does your family still eat this?"
As soon as Shen Ruolan said that she ate it herself, everyone in the middle of the mountain stopped their work and looked at Shen Ruolan blankly.
In their minds, wild vegetables are only eaten by those who can't afford food. How can a rich person like Lan Ya eat this stuff
Shen Ruolan chuckled, how could she say that she just came here for a reason? I had to say: "If you want a change, come and dig some."
"Oh, so you like to eat this thing? Tell me earlier, if I knew you liked it, I would have sent it to you."
Gui Shengzi's daughter-in-law patted her thigh, as if regretting what a big deal, she walked over quickly after patting her thigh, and dumped all the wild vegetables in her basket into Shen Ruolan's basket, leaving nothing for herself.
The other daughters-in-law who were digging up wild vegetables were not to be outdone, and scrambled to get wild vegetables for Shen Ruolan.
Shen Ruolan refused in her heart, but these enthusiastic sister-in-laws never gave her a chance to refuse.
"Hey, just take it, why are you being polite to us?"
"That's right, it's not worth much. The mountain is full of it. Can't we just dig it?"
"You take these first, and I will send them to you after I dig them back!"
"There's me and me, I'll send it to you later, just wait—"
Her aunt Shen Xiuyun was also there, and seeing everyone being so close and enthusiastic towards Shen Ruolan, her face suddenly felt hot, and she didn't know where to look.
Why!
Now, her guts are turning green. If she had known that this niece would have such a future, she wouldn't have offended her if she was killed
Now it's all right, almost all the people in the village have received the favor and benefits of this niece, but her real aunt can only do her eyesore on one side.
The old women who dig vegetables with her have built houses in her house, and they have earned a lot of money from her. Every family has money and food. They don’t come here to dig wild vegetables to save the spring famine. Well, she is probably the only one who digs vegetables here to save the spring famine!
A woman who was fairly close to her, seeing her embarrassed face, murmured to her in a low voice: "Lanya is so promising now, why are you still holding it tight? You are her own aunt, please apologize to her." Make a mistake, how can she still really hate you for the rest of her life? You see how treacherous your elder brother is, he followed your second elder brother's family to make a fortune. I saw him hire Dachun's carriage to go to town this morning. I went to buy your mother's birthday banquet, and you are wearing new clothes made of pure cotton cloth. Your sister-in-law is also wearing new clothes. She has become rich by taking advantage of the light, and your family is still hungry. I don't know that you are carrying that smelly air What's the use?"
Shen Xiuyun bit her lip, and said in a low voice, "Isn't it irresistible to me? You said that I'm quite old, and I'm still her elder, and I'm very close to her, so what if she doesn't talk to me? Embarrassed?"
The woman curled her lips: "How much is face worth? It's true if you don't go hungry. Lan Ya is not the kind of person who cares about and holds grudges. As long as you apologize sincerely, she won't hold on to your family's little mistakes. However, if you apologize, you have to be more sincere. Lan Ya has a lot of eyes. If you want to play tricks on her, I advise you not to go. Not only will she not forgive you for not telling her, she may even make more mistakes. I can't see you anymore."
Shen Xiuyun raised her eyes and looked at Shen Ruolan standing there, talking to everyone with a smile, she gritted her teeth and mustered up the courage to walk over.
"Lan Ya, can you move these dishes? Gu, help you take them back!" Shen Xiuyun said awkwardly, reaching out to pick up Shen Ruolan's basket.
Shen Ruolan moved her hand aside, said calmly, "Thank you, I can move it, I don't need you."
Shen Ruolan's attitude was polite and indifferent, as if she was treating a stranger, she was not as close to these neighbors as she was to Shen Xiuyun.
Shen Xiuyun and everyone else were dumped by her niece. Although she felt quite humiliated, the bigger emotion was not embarrassment, but sadness, remorse and sadness, as well as disappointment, depression, etc. Anyway, it was all kinds of things. Emotions were intertwined, making her very uncomfortable.
Although she has a strong temper, she really can't be tough now. Ever since the second brother's house built that magnificent big house, or, since the second brother took the two boys out of business, the eldest brother's family is doing well now. It was booming, and she knew that she could no longer afford to be prestige in Lan Ya, and the only thing she thought about now was how to make her forgive herself and accept her as an aunt.
Shen Ruolan was quite happy chatting with everyone, but when she saw Shen Xiuyun coming, she immediately lost interest in chatting, so she told everyone and walked back with Shouya.
After walking for a while, Shouya whispered, "Your aunt is following us!"
Shen Ruolan snorted coldly: "Don't look back, don't pay attention to her, let her follow if you want to follow."
The two walked for a while, when Aunt Shen suddenly spoke up.
"Lanya—"
Shen Ruolan stood still, turned her head, her attitude was still cold and distant: "Do you have something to do?"
Aunt Shen grabbed the corner of her clothes, blushed, and said, "I want to tell you that in the past, it was because of my fault that I did a lot of things that you didn't like. I know I was wrong. I'm sorry. You, aunt, admit your mistake..."
After saying this, her face was also hot, as if she had been slapped twice, but after she finished speaking. My heart felt much more relaxed.
Shen Ruolan smiled faintly, "Okay, I understand."
She only said "I see", but didn't say that she didn't forgive her. Aunt Shen didn't know whether she forgave her or not. Ah, my aunt also wants to tell you, can you help my aunt and uncle and your brother for the sake of our relatives, our family has been out of food for seven or eight days, and these days we only eat wild vegetables and have diarrhea Yes, everyone in the village knows what my aunt has done to you in the past, and no one will lend us food, and our family is about to starve to death!"
Aunt Shen didn't lie, the family has indeed run out of food. Although there are wild vegetables to satisfy my hunger these days, most of the ingredients of wild vegetables are water. Like a water mule. And I'm not hungry yet, after two urinations, my stomach will be empty again.
Without food, no matter how many wild vegetables I eat, my stomach is always hungry, which is extremely uncomfortable.
Also, wild vegetables are too unpalatable.
Although this thing is sought after by many modern people, it is a miracle, it is naturally nutritious, anti-cancer and cures diseases, but if they are used as staple food, and there is no oil or modern seasonings for cooking, it will only be a big pot The green wild vegetables are definitely not delicious when cooked, especially some wild vegetables are bitter and astringent, which makes people feel sour in the mouth.
Baogen has been having stomach problems for the past two days, and he can't even get up on the kang. If he continues to eat, the child will definitely fall ill.
Although Shen Xiuyun loves face and has a stubborn temper, her temper and face are nothing compared to her son's health. Now, as long as she can borrow food for her Baogen to eat, even if she kowtows to others OK.
Thinking of Baogen lying on the kang moaning and moaning, Aunt Shen felt extremely uncomfortable. She cried, and she cried from the bottom of her heart, "Lan Ya, Gu is really desperate now, no one will lend us food, but if there is no more food If we don’t, our family will really starve to death, don’t you have the heart to watch your aunt and brother starve to death?”
Shen Ruolan watched her cry for a while with cold eyes, and saw that she was crying for real, not pretending, and then said: "Speaking of which, whether you are starving to death or not really has nothing to do with me. I think back when I was so hungry, I didn't even see your aunt helping me with a pancake and a bowl of porridge, just because of this, if I don't help you, no one will be able to pick anything."
"However, for the sake of being the descendants of the old Shen family, I will help you once this time regardless of past suspicions, but I will not lend you money, nor will I lend you food. I will say hello to my uncle. You go to his house to borrow it, and you have to pay him back when the food is harvested in autumn, and you have to issue an IOU to him. If you want to renege on the debt or fail to pay it, according to my aunt's temperament, you will definitely take this IOU. The town yamen sued you, you have to weigh it up if you don’t pay it back.”
Shen Xiuyun hurriedly nodded, thanking Dade, "Return, I will return, I designated to return..."
"That's good. I'll tell my uncle tomorrow that you can weigh the grain tomorrow night." After Shen Ruolan finished speaking, she and Shouya walked away with a basket on their arms.
Shen Xiuyun looked at Shen Ruolan's slender and straight back, with mixed feelings in her heart.
She was the one who misjudged her own child...
But what can be done, she also knows in her heart that what she did in the past was too much, this child is holding a grudge, although it will not take revenge on her, but it may be difficult to get her to recognize her as a aunt again!
Shen Ruolan and Shouya took the wild vegetables back, picked some not so good ones, and put them on the wall of the yard to dry, not to make wild vegetables dry, but to make them lose a lot of water and become semi-dry It's like, if you eat it at that time, you'll just eat it with some egg sauce, and eat it with two rice, it's delicious.
The news that Shen Ruolan loves to eat wild vegetables spread throughout the village in less than a day, so the old women in the village came to deliver wild vegetables one after another. At night, the yard of the house was almost full of wild vegetables.

I would like to recommend Yaoer's finished article to everyone.
The Peasant Queen of Space
five girls
Once through time, the gold medal bodyguard Mu Caiwei turned into Mu Caiwei, a peasant girl who was starved to death.

Although the previous life took the high-cold route, but this time and that time.
In front of the stall, Mu Caiwei was wearing an apron, trying to sell: "Fried skewers, fried skewers, all kinds of fried skewers
In the cloth shop, Mu Caiwei skillfully dialed the abacus: "These q-version silks and satins can be bought for fifty taels of silver each."
Soon, the people of the Jin Kingdom knew that the richest man in the Jin Kingdom was not only a young and beautiful girl, but also a philanthropist!
Mu Caiwei never dreamed that she would get an unbelievable—magical space!
She also got a marriage that made her "unspeakable"!
