Chapter 918: Thick Mist (V)
Lu Xiaoxiao and her two sisters Liu Ermei spent more than two hours digging wild vegetables on the slope and filled the backpacks they brought with them. Just when Lu Xiaoxiao wanted to tell Liu Ermei that she was going home to get two sacks to carry the wild vegetables, she saw her second sister take out two large sacks from the bushes not far away.
"Second sister, how do you know there is a sack in the bushes?" Lu Xiaoxiao asked Liu Ermei.
"Because I put this sack in the bushes before digging wild vegetables. We have to bring a sack with us if we want to dig wild vegetables for a whole day. Otherwise, how can we carry the vegetables home?"
“Haha… So that’s how it is.”
"Sister, it's noon already. Let's have dinner and then continue digging." Liu Sanmei said to Liu Ermei after she poured the wild vegetables into the sack.
"Okay, go get the buns."
Lu Xiaoxiao heard that Liu Ermei and the others had gone to get lunch, so she said to Liu Ermei, "Ermei, please help me put the wild vegetables into the sack. I'll go over there and get the steamed buns I brought."
"Xiaoxiao, why did you bring food with you? Are you planning to spend the whole day digging wild vegetables like I thought?"
"No, I didn't have breakfast, and I was afraid I would get hungry while digging wild vegetables, so I brought a steamed bun and a small bag of pickles to fill my stomach."
"So that's how it is. I thought you thought the same as I did."
"I'm going to get the steamed buns over there. Remember to help me put the wild vegetables into the sack."
"good."
Lu Xiaoxiao came to a bush where Liu Ermei and the others couldn't see her. She took advantage of the bush to take out a steamed bun made of mixed flour and two pickled cucumbers that she had made last year from the space. Then she walked towards Liu Ermei and the others with the things.
"Second sister, what food did you bring?" Lu Xiaoxiao asked Liu Ermei.
"We brought steamed buns and also your share."
"I brought steamed buns, too, but I also brought two pickled cucumbers that I made myself. We each had half a cucumber to eat with the steamed buns."
"Xiaoxiao, your pickled cucumbers are so delicious. I've been eating cucumbers for more than ten years, but I've never eaten such delicious pickled cucumbers." Liu Ermei said to Lu Xiaoxiao immediately after taking a bite of the pickled cucumbers that Lu Xiaoxiao gave her.
"If you like to eat it, I can teach you how to pickle it."
"That's great. I'll go back and ask my mom to plant more cucumbers so I can pickle a lot of them."
"Don't pickle so many cucumbers. Eating too many pickled cucumbers will make you feel sick." When Lu Xiaoxiao heard that Liu Ermei wanted to pickle so many cucumbers, she immediately said to Liu Ermei.
"Don't worry, Xiaoxiao. We have a large family, so I won't get tired of pickling any more."
"All right."
"Xiaoxiao, I suddenly remembered something. Last time, you asked me to go to your house to teach you how to grow vegetables. How about I go to your house to teach you tomorrow?"
"Sure. My land has just been tilled and is ready to be planted."
"Okay, that's settled. I've already finished my steamed buns, so I'm going to go dig some wild vegetables first."
"Um."
"Big sister, please wait for us, we have finished eating the steamed buns too."
"good."
After Liu Ermei and her two sisters left, Lu Xiaoxiao quickly finished the steamed buns and pickled cucumbers in her hands, then picked up a small hoe to dig wild vegetables.
At 5:30 in the evening, after Lu Xiaoxiao put the last wild vegetable she dug into her backpack, she turned to Liu Ermei and said, "Second sister, how are you going to take these two large sacks of wild vegetables home?"
"My parents will come to fight against it. Look, they are here." Liu Ermei pointed at the two people walking towards them.
