After lunch, Wang Zhenggang arranged for another truck to send over a truckload of narcissus.
The daffodils he sent were all high-quality varieties that grew very lush and green, and according to Ye Chen's requirements, each one had not bloomed.
Daffodils are plants that look very similar to leeks, even more so when they are not blooming.
People in the city are not so clear about plants. In addition, most people have eaten leeks and seen cut leeks, but they have never seen leeks growing in the ground, so it is easy to confuse leeks with foreign plants. Daffodils get confused.
Leek is a popular vegetable among the people. Whether it is stir-frying, cooking soup, or making pies and making dumplings, it is an indispensable and good ingredient.
But things like narcissus cannot be eaten.
Why can't it be eaten? Because daffodils contain narcissine.
And Narcissus itself is a toxic alkaloid.
Ye Chen heard Ma Lan say that Mrs. Xiao likes to eat leeks, so she immediately thought of colchicum.
He knew that after Mrs. Xiao succeeded in stealing vegetables once, she would definitely steal again, and she would steal frequently.
So he asked Wang Zhenggang to arrange workers to plant all these colchicums against the corner of the wall.
In this way, Mrs. Xiao can grab a lot of them from outside the iron fence, and it really couldn't be easier to steal.
If she stole these daffodils and ate them as leeks, her fate would be miserable.
Although it is not fatal, it is probably inevitable to go to the hospital for a few days.
Ye Chen's idea is to first let her family eat narcissus and be admitted to the hospital. While they are in the hospital, he will have people turn all the fences into walls, and then turn his vegetable garden into a glass room. No more fear of someone stealing it.
When the truck came to unload, the old lady Xiao next door happened to see it from the terrace on the third floor.
When she saw the workers moving down clusters of green slender-leaved plants from the car, her eyes immediately brightened!
It turned out to be leeks!
And such fresh leeks!
She couldn't help but think of the delicious meal at noon. Because of the vegetables stolen from Ye Chen's house, this home-cooked meal was very delicious, and even felt particularly green and healthy.
Seeing so many fresh leeks coming to Ye Chen's house now, the old lady Xiao is naturally elated, because her favorite food is leeks!
Moreover, she has been displaced during this period of time, has encountered so many accidents, and has been in a detention center for several days. It has been a long time since she has eaten dumplings stuffed with leeks and eggs!
At this time, seeing so many fresh and good leeks came to Ye Chen's house, the first thought in her mind was to quickly take a knife and cut two, make dumplings stuffed with leeks and eggs, and have a good dinner at night!
After 4 o'clock in the afternoon, the old lady Xiao woke up from a nap, and the first thing she did was to come to the terrace to see how Ye Chen's leeks were doing.
Seeing that Ye Chen had planted all the leeks on the side next to the iron fence, Mrs. Xiao was extremely happy.
Isn't this just convenient for myself?
So she immediately went downstairs.
At this time, Xiao Changqian's family of four were sitting in the living room watching TV.
Xiao Hailong moved up the TV in an empty room downstairs. Although it was not as big as the sold one, it was already very good.
The old lady Xiao said to Qian Hongyan: "Hongyan, go out and buy a box of eggs and come back with a bag of noodles."
Qian Hongyan hastily asked complimentingly: "Mom, why do you want eggs and noodles?"
The old lady Xiao said: "In the evening, eat dumplings stuffed with leeks and eggs!"
Xiao Hailong said in surprise: "Grandma, can you make dumplings tonight?"
"Yes!" Mrs. Xiao said with a smile, "Do you like leek eggs?"
Xiao Hailong said with a smile: "Oh, I like it so much! It's been a long time since I ate dumplings with chives and eggs. When you say that, my mouth is watering!"
Xiao Changqian also said with a smile: "Mom, why did you remember to eat leek and egg dumplings today? You haven't cooked dumplings for a long time."
The old lady Xiao said: "I am happy today, and the dumplings stuffed with leek and egg are enough for tonight!"
"It's great!" Xiao Changqian said with emotion: "I haven't eaten dumplings for a while, and today I will relieve my cravings!"
Qian Hongyan asked, "Mom, besides noodles and eggs, don't I want to buy some leeks?"
XiaoMrs. ?? smiled proudly: "Ye Chen's family brought a lot of very fresh leeks in the afternoon, and I'll go out and cut a couple of them later!"
Xiao Chang hurriedly said: "Mom, then cut a little more, and make some leek and pork dumplings by the way!"
Xiao Weiwei said: "You can also bake pies stuffed with leeks!"
"Okay, okay!" Mrs. Xiao nodded and smiled, "Then I'll cut some more!"
At around 5 o'clock in the afternoon, Mrs. Xiao went out with a kitchen knife.
She put the kitchen knife into the bamboo basket, and trotted all the way to the outside of the fence of Ye Chen's house.
The old lady Xiao looked around and saw that there was no one in the yard, so she quickly took out the knife, reached into the fence and cut a large handful of leeks.
After cutting this handful, she immediately cut two more handfuls.
I thought it was almost enough, but when I thought about it carefully, such a good leek is really rare, and I would lose money if I didn't cut more.
So she cut off six handfuls in a row, and none of the cut "leeks" could fit in the bamboo basket.
Seeing that she succeeded, Mrs. Xiao was about to run back in a hurry.
At this time, Ma Lan saw that the sun was about to set, so she leaned on crutches and went to the terrace to bask in the sun.
After all, the doctor told me that if you want your legs to heal quickly, you need to get more exposure to the sun to synthesize vitamin D.
When she came to the terrace, she happened to see Mrs. Xiao stealing the vegetables again, and she cursed angrily: "You old bastard, you just stole so many vegetables from my house in the morning, and you dare to come in the afternoon, you still have to be shameless!" ?¡±
The old lady Xiao turned her head and looked at her jumping and cursing: "What's the matter? You are my mother's daughter-in-law, and my mother eats your order, and you still talk to me?"
Ma Lan scolded: "Who the hell is your daughter-in-law, you shameless old bastard, next time you dare to come to my house to steal food, I will break your leg!"
The old lady Xiao snorted, and cursed: "I don't know when my broken leg will heal, and you dare to yell at me? Believe it or not, I will break your leg next time?"
When Ma Lan heard this, she suddenly became furious!
Her leg was broken by Mrs. Xiao in the detention center, and she always remembered this grudge.
Seeing that Mrs. Xiao came to steal vegetables again, and scolded herself about the broken leg, Ma Lan gritted her teeth and scolded: "You just steal it! Old man! You have such a cheap mouth, I will eat you to death sooner or later!"
The old lady Xiao snorted coldly and said: "Tell you Ma Lan, my mother's life is long, you will die eight hundred times and my mother will not die! If you don't believe me, let's wait and see who will die first!" : www.hlnovel.com
