Chapter 91: Both Teacher and Friend



Speaking of sweet sticks, the best ones are those that are not big and the whole stalk is purple-red, they are juicy and sweet.

Just think about it, this kind of thing basically doesn’t happen, hahaha!

If there is a fat and round cob on the straw, you don’t even need to look at it, it is not sweet.

The second is those that do not produce sticks, and the last is those that produce small and few fruits but are still acceptable!

It’s said to be sweet but it’s actually not that sweet, and you have to peel the skin off, otherwise you’ll end up with a mouthful of blood.

But, the atmosphere is what makes the food special! A bunch of kids were squatting in various places, giggling and smacking their lips happily.

After a while, the ground will be covered with residues, which can be dried and used for burning. No waste at all!

There was a fake child who sneaked in among them. Song Jinxiu squatted with them and started eating carefully.

It’s so cool, it’s still comfortable to be a child.

When harvesting corn, I was forced to harvest for half a day, and a rash broke out on my body on the spot!

Everyone is unwilling to give up. If they don’t know how to pick the corn, they can probably tie them up and dry them in the sun!

So Song Jinxiu was assigned to pick corn, which meant peeling the corn husks, hanging them upside down, and then drying them in bunches.

I don’t know if it’s because my body is too delicate or I’m allergic to farm work.

What was originally just a faint red dot suddenly became brighter! There were also several cuts on my hands from the leaves.

Song Jinxiu immediately ran away. She was not short of food, so the worst that could happen was that she would ask for less!

Everyone just let it go when they saw this, and a few discordant voices were also shouted back. It's not like they're eating your food, so why are you meddling too much?

After all, the girl didn't do it on purpose, and looking at how fast she worked, I really couldn't agree with it.

The kids are faster than her!

Song Jinxiu was very happy and was avoiding labor openly!

Now that I have tasted the sweet potato, should I continue climbing the mountain?

Song Jinxiu looked at the children expectantly.

Everyone silently shifted their gazes; they hadn't eaten enough yet. They had just tasted the sweetness.

The fruits on the mountain are not as delicious as the sweet ones!

"Actually, I think sweet potato can be eaten at any time, so we should do it while it's still early. We should take Teacher Song to find more wild vegetables and fruits." Goudan said.

"I think so too. Teacher Song has a hard time! She has no time to go up the mountain when she is teaching us. How can we waste her precious time?" Erhu also said.

"Yes. We should be grateful for Teacher Song's teachings. We must satisfy this little hobby." The little friends rebelled silently one by one.

The rest of the people looked back in confusion, wanting only to say something about the quintessence of Chinese culture!

I saw that every child who spoke was holding a big mouse candy in his hand, and Song Jinxiu had two in her hand, but there were still five of them!

With the sweet stick in his mouth, he immediately reached out to grab it.

There were still two people standing there. They were not Song Jinxiu's students, so they were too embarrassed to snatch the money!

In the end, the ox egg was too small. He couldn't grab it from the two of them, and he was so anxious that he almost cried!

Song Jinxiu took out three more candies. She was just teasing them and would definitely not show favoritism.

Niu Dan took the candy and said happily, "Thank you, Teacher Song. Next time I'll take you to poke a hornet's nest. I tell you, honey is so sweet!"

Song Jinxiu, thank you so much, I don’t want to go.

Those two were not Song Jinxiu's students, but they didn't expect that they had one too.

After receiving it, I quickly imitated them and said thank you, "Thank you, Teacher Song. We can help you carry your things later."

"It doesn't matter whether it has candy or not. What matters is that we like to take you to play in the mountains!" Hanzi said while playing with the candy in his hand.

"Yes, yes, yes!" Xiaopang responded!

After spending some time together, Song Jinxiu's noble image has disappeared.

Even the four-year-old Xiaoguai knew that Song Jinxiu was a person with poor direction.

She gets lost every time she goes up the mountain. I’ve taken her there so many times but she still can’t remember the way!

Because Song Jinxiu didn't behave like an adult at all, the children treated her as one of their own.

She would also be invited to participate in the discussion if there was any little secret.

The crops in the fields were almost harvested, and Dalinzi took the little donkey away again.

We were supposed to plant a crop of winter wheat this year, and now we have to prepare to plow the land.

Song Jinxiu then realized that the same plant cannot be planted continuously on the land and must be rotated!

Speaking of grain, this year's rice harvest was a bumper one, yielding an average of over 400 kilograms per mu of land.

Some particularly fertile lands can yield over 500 kilograms, but there are only a few acres of such land in a village!

Song Jinxiu and the other person didn't do much work, but the little donkey was considered a big job.

In the end, Song Jinxiu received 800 kilograms of rice, 2,000 kilograms of sweet potatoes, and over 2,000 kilograms of potatoes. In addition, there were several hundred kilograms of various grains and beans.

This also includes the harvest from private plots.

Later, Aunt Cuihua brought another 420 kilograms of rice, saying it was the children's tuition for one year.

Seeing so much food, Song Jinxiu was as happy as a 100-pound child. She put all the food into the warehouse and placed it in the corner of her room.

It was a mistake. I should have built an extra food storage room at home.

Here we have to mention Song Jinxiu's private plot. She usually takes care of it herself and gets the harvest herself.

However, because they had a donkey, Dalinzi helped Song Jinxiu plow the fields at the beginning of the year.

The vegetables grown in the front and back yards were enough to eat, so potatoes were planted directly in the private plot. These potatoes are very filling and can be used as both a vegetable and a staple food.

It is right next to my house and easy to take care of.

After the autumn harvest, Song Jinxiu spent just two meals to have someone help her harvest the potatoes.

Now we have planted cabbages again, and this year’s winter vegetables and pickles will depend on them!
