Chapter 42, Holiday
Anyway, the old lady in the family was a very particular person and she murdered all of her grandchildren.
That's how they became what they are now.
Whenever you meet elders or outsiders, you have to put on airs.
It's so fake and uncomfortable.
An Qianqian was really at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
"Okay, go back now. I'll come see you next time."
Han Meng didn't bother to be tactful with her as he was still at work.
After parting, An Qianqian and her mother got on Uncle He's carriage and returned to the village.
Because she bought a lot of cotton cloth, she gave a piece of azure blue cloth to the Mao family.
It can be used to make clothes for both adults and children.
He also answered Liu Ying's question, asking her to go to the farmers' market during the big market.
Liu Ying took it to heart, thinking that the market was only a few days away, and she wanted to go for a walk.
Life at home is peaceful and uneventful.
The big chickens are sold slowly, and the small chickens are also added bit by bit.
The children also welcomed the summer vacation.
As soon as the holidays come, the An family becomes lively.
"Xingzi, where do you think we should go?" The four of them gathered at An's house again.
The four of them quarreled over where to go.
An Qianqian didn't care, she had nothing to do anyway.
Seeing Gou Wa arguing with Shitou Ge, Xiao Xi came to Xingzi and asked for his opinion.
"I think I should go pick some wild fruits for Sister Qianqian. Didn't Sister Qianqian say she would make jam for us last time?" Xingzi has been thinking about it for a long time.
If there were not so few wild fruits in winter, they would have taken action long ago.
Upon hearing this, Xiaoxi was happy.
He stood up and said, "Stop arguing, I know where to go." Xiaoxi's voice was loud and immediately interrupted the two people who were arguing.
After Xiaoxi finished speaking, the bickering duo unanimously agreed, "Okay, then let's go pick wild fruits."
Seeing them discussing where to leave, An Qianqian looked helpless. Why didn't they ask her, the person in charge?
Never mind, as long as they are happy.
The chicks have been arranged and there is nothing to do at home, so they can just go with us.
However, this season is also the time to harvest mountain products, so she can't just pick wild fruits.
He set off with two snakeskin bags and a backpack.
When the busy people in the village saw these five people, they all shook their heads and laughed.
Qianqian is a really nice kid.
Who doesn’t praise in his heart?
Along the way, An Qianqian saw a lot of good things, but unfortunately, they were not stored properly, so she didn't buy any.
But there was one wild vegetable that she couldn't help but eat.
That is the willow bud. This thing is very good. In the future, it will be very expensive and hard to find.
It is a great oil-absorbing vegetable, and its nickname is also called wealth vegetable. This vegetable can also be made into dried vegetable. If you come across it often, you can try to make it, but she doesn't know how to make it.
A few people noticed that Sister Qianqian's pace was getting slower and slower, and they also saw what Sister Qianqian was picking.
"Sister Qianqian, this vegetable is not tasty and tastes bitter. Why did you pick it?" They were all children from the countryside and they didn't know what kind of wild vegetables there were.
Unless you are so poor that you can’t even cook, who would eat wild vegetables?
When Qianqian heard them say it was bitter, she refused to do it. "It's not bitter at all, it's just a little bit astringent. It's fine as long as it tastes good. If you have nothing to do, help me look around to see if there are any more." Most willow buds grow in groups.
When they heard that Sister Qianqian liked it, the four of them started looking everywhere.
In a short while, most of the backpack was full.
Because they were still thinking about picking wild fruits, the four of them were reluctant to pick them.
"Sister Qianqian, let's pick these vegetables when we come back. We still have a long way to go." The bigger stone came out and said.
An Qianqian felt a little embarrassed when she heard this. She had a little problem: she couldn't walk when she saw good things.
Seeing the pitying looks in the four people's eyes, what else could she do?
"Okay, you guys wait here for me, I'll go home." They were right. I couldn't carry him back and forth.
She walked quickly and sent the willow buds back home in no time.
This time, they went to another mountain, not the place where she fell.
An Qianqian wanted to take another look. She didn't know if there were other ginsengs there. You know, ginseng is also a gregarious plant.
There's no rush. She'll go and take a look when she's free.
The mountain is full of vitality and good things can be found everywhere.
For example, some mushrooms. Of course, not all of these mushrooms are edible.
It was still a little difficult for her to distinguish, and they were still children, so An Qianqian didn't think of eating those mushrooms.
Finally we got to the place they said.
Looking at the wild grapes on the mountain, An Qianqian's eyes lit up, but unfortunately, they were not edible yet.
"Sister Qianqian, if you like it, let's do it again when it's cooked." Seeing Sister Qianqian's performance, Xiaoxi said seriously.
"Okay, can you help me pick them when the time comes? I'll buy them from you." This is a good thing. It is perfect whether it is used for eating or making jam.
These taste much better than those made with saccharin.
Soon An Qianqian knew what they brought her to pick.
It turns out that they were picking wild plums.
This thing, in one word, is sour.
It's so sour that it makes your teeth ache.
But if used to make jam, it is sweet and sour and delicious.
Action speaks louder than words.
The five people's mobility is still very strong.
In a short while, all the best ones were picked.
"Mission accomplished." Looking at the bountiful harvest, An Qianqian stopped them.
"Stop picking them. If you pick more we won't be able to take them back." She was strong enough to carry the load, but they were still young so they just had to carry the basket on their backs.
Four people came down from the tree.
"Sister Qianqian, there are still some red ones on the tip. Don't you want them all?" Shitou said with some regret.
An Qianqian shook her head, "No, we can't take any more back. Let's eat now. Can you guys eat it?" It was so sour that her teeth grumbled.
Shake your head and say it’s okay to eat a little, but if you keep eating, your teeth will hurt.
"That's it." Seeing him shake his head, An Qianqian breathed a sigh of relief.
"Okay, let's take a break." We had walked such a long way and we were tired from picking fruits right away.
She was tired, let alone them.
"Sister Qianqian, do you think we should look around to see if there are any wild animals?" The four little guys love this moment the most because they can have a meal of meat whenever they go out with Sister Qianqian.
"Of course." An Qianqian was also tempted.
She is strong and has quick eyes and hands.
His movements are no worse than those of the hunters.
"You guys wait here, I'll go take a look around." A lot of people will make a lot of noise, so don't scare the animals away.
The four of them nodded quickly, they were so well behaved.
After walking a short distance, An Qianqian made a discovery.
Once there is a first, there will be a second, and soon she had a great harvest.
It seems that there are few people coming to this mountain, and these animals are not very vigilant.
There were pheasants and hares. After she counted them, she stopped hunting.
The money earned from selling these animals was really pitiful, and she looked down on it. If she came across a big wild boar, she could make some money.
But she had never heard of wild boars in this mountain.
Each family has one, along with their lunch rations.
The votes are moving!!! Thank you everyone!
