"Look at what we picked today. It's enough to stir-fry more than a dozen dishes. We can stir-fry Chinese toon with eggs, pig intestines, and bacon. It's so delicious that I can eat two more bowls of rice.
But it's strange that my mother-in-law can't get used to eating it. She said that Chinese toon is very smelly and can make her vomit when she smells it. It really is a matter of taste. My husband and I both like to eat it.
Shepherd's purse can be used to make dumplings, and purslane can be cooked with other vegetables and it is also very delicious."
Seeing that most of Miao Xiuying's basket was filled with ferns, she was curious and said, "These ferns won't last for a few days. They will wilt easily. If you like them, come back the next day to pick them. They taste better when they are fresh."
Miao Xiuying's backpack was full to the brim, and the basket she was carrying was also filled to the brim.
There are also fungus in the purse! Go up the mountain and fill it up as long as there is space.
This is what it means to return with a full load.
Aunt Guihua suggested: "Lao Miao, the way down the mountain is still long, we can help you share some of the burden."
Aunt Wei agreed: "I don't have much vegetables in my basket, you can just pick some and bring them in. It's not a hard job, so don't be polite with us. You have a few pheasant eggs and you're thinking about us. We can't let you get tired on the way.
In a few days, if you guys go to dig water celery, call me along. I want to dig some to give away."
Aunt Guihua said cheerfully, "Well, if you don't dig, others will do it. There is a reed marsh beside the paddy field. We can try our luck there.
If you are lucky, you can even catch wild ducks and pick up wild duck eggs. When my family was poor and I was in confinement after giving birth, my husband went there late at night to catch them, and he caught several.
Now that everyone has more money, no one is catching them. Villagers start working as soon as they open their eyes, and when they get home they don’t have the energy to do anything else, so we can take advantage of this opportunity.”
They are all good at budgeting and managing their lives.
Aunt Xu was very interested. "Count me in. I've never picked up wild duck eggs before. Lao Miao is lucky. We should follow her and take advantage of her."
Miao Xiuying bent down slightly to let Aunt Guihua grab the vegetables more easily. She said with a smile, "If we talk about luck, it has to be my Xiaoyan. It's like God is chasing after her to feed her.
Before, on the island, as long as she went out to sea, she would make a lot of money. She would come across all kinds of rare treasures. If she walked on the mudflats, an octopus weighing twenty or thirty kilograms would run towards her. How could others have such luck?
It's great to have a little octopus. When she goes fishing, everyone follows her. Her fishing net and bucket are never empty."
Aunt Guihua said as she grabbed some vegetables, "She looks very lucky. She will bring prosperity to your whole family. Do you think anyone can have three babies in one pregnancy and all get admitted to Peking University?
She must be a person with great luck. If you follow her, you will be successful!"
Miao Yingxiu liked to hear people praising Jiang Yan. She smiled from ear to ear, "Of course, if anyone dares to say anything bad about her, I will slap her mouth to pieces. I love and protect her myself, and I can't stand others saying things that hurt her."
Aunt Guihua nodded and said, "If my family had a daughter-in-law like this, I would have worshipped her. As for those women, they only care about trivial matters. Don't bother with them.
After living here for a long time, you will know the temperaments of different people and whether you can get along with them. Let's go down the mountain."
After saying that, several people walked down the slope, talking all the time.
After school, Jiang Yan went to the Yuhong class to pick up the children. When they saw Jiang Yan coming, the three children were so happy that they raised their chubby hands.
"Mom, are you here to pick us up?"
"Baby, I miss you so much!"
There were several little boys around Mi Li. When they gave her the snacks, no one wanted them. It was obvious how popular she was.
She ran to Jiang Yan and shouted to the teacher obediently: "Teacher Yangyang, we are going home. See you tomorrow!"
Teacher Yangyang still feels a little dazed when seeing Jiang Yan. This face is really attractive to both men and women.
Teacher Miaomiao beside her nudged her, and she came back to her senses and said embarrassedly: "Comrade Jiang, the child performed very well today and won five red flowers. His sweat towel got wet during his nap at noon, so I washed it and dried it, and put it in his schoolbag. He also gets along well with other children."
Jiang Yan said politely: "Thank you, you have worked hard, then I will take the baby back first."
The two teachers smiled happily, "Comrade Jiang, the child is very good, we all like him very much, and we hope that under our joint care, the child can thrive.
All three of them are extremely smart. They will be very successful in the future. The teacher is waiting for them to be admitted to Tsinghua University or Peking University. "
Fantuan said with a bitter face: "Teacher, I want to join the army, I want to be a hero defending my country, I don't want to take the entrance exams to Tsinghua University or Peking University, let the second and third brothers take care of this, I am not good at studying."
Teacher Yangyang touched his head and said gently, "Being a soldier is also great! The people's soldiers are the cutest. We are proud of you. Come on!"
Rice ball said proudly: "I will work hard, I will protect mom, dad, and teacher."
Teacher Miaomiao pinched his smooth little face and praised: "The rice ball is great."
Fantuan felt embarrassed by their praise and hid behind Jiang Yan.
After picking up the baby and walking out of the school gate, I heard Gu Chaoyang, who was running out of breath, shouting, "Auntie, can I go to your house?"
Jiang Yan saw his rosy little face and sparkling eyes, and thought for a moment, "Of course you can, but you have to tell your parents."
Gu Chaoyang happily took her hand and pointed to the jeep on the side, "My driver is here, I'll go say hello to him."
He trotted up, the car door opened, and Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu got out.
Old Madam Gu was wearing a navy blue cheongsam and her hair was combed meticulously, looking like the mistress of a wealthy family.
Her eyes fell on Jiang Yan, and her aura softened again. "You must be the Jiang Yan that Xiaoya mentioned. You are so beautiful. Do you want to come to my house to play?"
When she saw the Mi Li that Gu Chaoyang had been thinking about so much, her eyes lit up again and again. The three kids were so adorable.
Especially that little face, so tender and chubby. As old people, what they like most are children.
She took out two handfuls of toffee and asked, "Little boy, would you like some candy?"
Her smile was kind and easy-going. If Qin Ya saw it, she would be shocked. After all, she was quite strict with her and always said that she had a childish temper.
Tsk, her husband spoiled her like that, if he has the guts, beat her son.
[Wives, I’m sorry that I updated late today. My cousin is getting married and all the relatives are here. I’m very busy, hehehe]
