    Dalang, who stayed in the village, began to tidy up his vegetable garden.  The vegetable garden was not small yet. He took Xinhu, Dabao and Amao to work, and asked Sister-in-law Xie and the others to take Ping'er out to pick wild vegetables.

    Dabao and Amao were just picking up some firewood in the garden. The original fence had long been of no use. Dalang simply tore it all down and planned to build a new fence. In the future, some vegetables will need to be tied with vines to build a fence. Without a fence  But no.

    After only a quarter of an hour of work, Uncle Xie came over and said, "I'll dig." He was a man of few words, so he didn't say much. He just grabbed the shovel from Xin Hu's hand and started working.

    With Xie Sanbo as a strong laborer, digging the vegetable garden will be easy.  Xinhu and Dalang first roughly cleaned up the dead grass and dead vegetable stalks from the old year.  The onions and garlic that Xinhu carefully protected back then have long since grown very luxuriantly. This small patch of green seedlings is very conspicuous, so of course it must be carefully protected.  After the earth returned to spring, some vegetable seeds fell on the ground when no one was taking care of them, and they sprouted quietly on their own without them seeing it.

    "Look, this is a pumpkin, right?" Xin Hu asked.  She pointed to a few young seedlings, unsure if they were pumpkins.  If she had grown older, she would still be able to tell the difference.  There were only two small leaves growing now, but she couldn't tell.

    Dalang glanced at it a few times. He was very familiar with this thing and said, "Well, it's really a pumpkin. I also said that there are no pumpkin seeds at home, so we won't be able to eat pumpkins this year."

    Pumpkin is a good thing, and it doesn¡¯t require much management. Both flowers and leaves can be eaten, and both young and old pumpkins can be eaten.  It can be said that it is a vegetable with very diverse ways of eating.  If you have a lot of pumpkins, you can dry them in the sun if you can't eat them all when you grow up, and save them for eating in winter when food is scarce and vegetables are scarce. You can cook dry pumpkin porridge with a little sweetness.

    Then, they discovered pepper seedlings, eggplant seedlings, and cucumber seedlings.  Maybe because it's close to the kitchen, the temperature here is higher than in other places. In addition, most of the hot ashes from the stove fall into the vegetable garden, which also plays a role in keeping warm. Regardless of the order, these seeds actually came out.  They sprouted on their own and sprouted young seedlings.

    "I was just thinking about plowing the ground to plant these vegetables. Unexpectedly, seedlings grew here." Dalang said with a happy smile.

    ¡°There¡¯s no way we can eat these seedlings. We still have to plant them,¡± Xin Hu said.

    But looking at these tender seedlings, she knew that this time they could eat vegetables that were in season.  The ones you sow yourself will probably mature half a month later than this batch.

    "That's right, protect these seedlings. We will plant some new ones tomorrow." Dalang nodded, and carefully looked for vegetable seedlings among the withered grass.

    Looking at the two of them so carefully, and then looking at the young seedlings that would be dug up if they were not careful, Sanbo Xie felt embarrassed and regretful.  In fact, the Xie family's vegetable garden will definitely have these mixed vegetable seedlings, but the Xie family doesn't know much about them and has already plowed the ground. Now in the Xie family's vegetable garden, only a few onions and garlic seedlings were removed from the Xinhu family.  Aunt Liu's family is the same.  They are all waiting for Dalang to give them vegetable seeds.

    Xie Sanbo thought that if he could be more careful when plowing the ground and keep these tender seedlings, he wouldn't have to worry about having no vegetable seeds now.  After all, Dalang and his family are full of children, and no one expects his family to have many vegetable seeds.

    ¡°Five pumpkin seedlings, five pepper seedlings, six cucumber seedlings, and seven eggplant seedlings.¡± Xin Hu counted and transplanted the vegetable seedlings that were crowded together with Dalang carefully.

    While they were busy, Xie Shuer came. Seeing them carefully handling a few young seedlings, she asked curiously: "What is this?"

    "Vegetable seedlings. The rapeseeds in the vegetable garden that were not harvested last year grew by themselves." Dalang replied.

    "Hey, there are vegetable seedlings before they are planted." Xie Shuer ran to them with a smile, squatting on the ground as if she was wondering, watching them transplant the vegetable seedlings.

    And asked one by one, what is this, what is that?  Xin Hu answered her one by one, and finally took a cucumber seedling and a pumpkin seedling and said, "Take it back and plant it in your vegetable garden. Take good care of it. Maybe there will be cucumbers to eat in another month."  ."

    "Really?" Xie Shuer was as excited as if she had found a treasure, and carefully held the muddy vegetable seedlings and went home.

    Then, Xinhu got two more seedlings and asked Ping'er to deliver them to Aunt Liu.  This little miscellaneous young seedling can bloom and bear fruit even if you take good care of it.

    In fact, Xinhu is not quite sure at all. When should these vegetables be planted?  Since the streets are full of out-of-season vegetables, you can now buy Chinese cabbage, which was originally meant to be eaten in winter.  Eggplants, beans, etc. that were originally meant to be eaten in the summer can now be eaten in the winter.  Therefore, her previous life experience in the countryside has long been confused.

    ??Bari, near the reeds in the shallow water, is everywhere.

    ¡°Can clams grow pearls?¡± Xie Shuer¡¯s eyes lit up and she asked in surprise.

    "I don't know whether pearls will grow or not. I only know that we can eat them in the future." Xin Hu was happy and directly chose the big one and threw it into the basket.

    Pearls are hard to come by. Who knows if the clams here will grow pearls?  There are so many clams here. If pearls grow so easily, we won¡¯t be able to sell all the pearls alone in the future.  However, even in modern times, she knew that pearls were valuable items.  Not to mention ancient times.  Therefore, she didn't take Pearl to heart at all.  At this time, filling your stomach is the most important thing.

    ¡°Can this thing be eaten?¡± Xie Shuer¡¯s eyes widened and she asked in surprise.

    "Of course, it's delicious, just like meat." Xin Hu said.

    "Eating clams every spring is a very common thing in her hometown. They are sold in the vegetable market. They will kill the clams for you and take out the meat. It is very convenient for me. Even if you don't know how to do it, they can clean it for you."  When she was a child in the countryside, she would break the shells and get the meat herself.  The professional is very agile. He cuts the clam open with a thin knife along the seam in the middle, then breaks it apart with force, and the whole mussel meat appears. Then he cuts it with the knife and removes the mussel meat.  Came down.

    The two of them each picked up more than half of the basket of large clams, and kept the baskets together by the water.  Let them vomit the dirty mud first and then feed them for a few days, which will make them cleaner.

    Since it was the first time for Xie Shuer to know that lake clams were edible, she naturally wanted to spread the word about it when she returned home. Everyone was very happy to hear this.  There is more food to eat, and it still tastes like meat. Now everyone does not have to worry about starving. No matter how much food is saved at home, it will be eaten immediately. Now they are waiting for Jiang Dashan and the others to bring back some food.  Otherwise, if you can't find anything to eat, you will really have to eat wild vegetables to satisfy your hunger.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
