Rebirth in another world is good for farming

After the imposing big talk, I have to worry about lunch.Yanan, no, now he can only be called Zhang Xiaoliu. Standing in front of the dilapidated house, he began to think about what else to fill his stomach at home.It is definitely not enough to eat only one cornbread a day, not to mention whether he can bear the hunger, but he is afraid that if he is hungry in the end, his body will be taken away by someone.

"Wheat, are there any more rapeseeds we wanted to come from last time in Dashun?" Dashun is the head of their neighbor's family. There are many rural areas. There is also a certain distance between them.

It's the spring of March now, a few days ago Zhang Xiaoliu had the cheek to look like his neighbor Dashun and ordered some rapeseed, which he planned to scatter in the vegetable field in a few days.It's just that although Zhang Xiaoliu remembered this matter in his mind, he didn't know where the seeds were conveniently placed.

"Yes, I'll get it for my brother." Although Zhang Xiaoliu is an elder brother, he is only 11 years old after all, and Zhang Xiaomai is usually on the sidelines to help him.

Zhang Xiaomai quickly ran out with a small bag of rags the size of a palm, and handed the things to Zhang Xiaoliu.

"Okay, Xiaomai, you take Xiaosong to play on the bed first, and brother to grow vegetables." If a three-year-old child were in modern times, he would be able to run and jump around long ago, but Xiaosong is not even walking steadily.His body is poor, and most of the time he can only lie on the bed, or hold the wheat in his hands.

Mai Mai hesitated for a moment, then said, "I'll go help brother."

"No need, there aren't many seeds." Zhang Xiaoliu shook his head, found a hoe that was already bumpy from the back of the door, and walked to the vegetable field in front of the door alone.

Zhang Memo is bedridden all the year round, and Zhang's father is a rough man, who has to take care of the fields and find work to exchange for medicine money, so naturally he doesn't care much about the vegetable fields.Although it was spring, when Zhang Xiaoliu approached, he found that the vegetable field was bare except for the weeds next to it.

After Zhang Xiaoliu saw it, he just settled down and raised his hoe to clean the vegetable field.After all, Yanan is also a real rural child. Since he was a child, he grew up with his parents and went to the fields to plant peanuts, transplant rice seedlings, and sweet potatoes. He was able to do everything, so a small vegetable field was naturally ignored.Fortunately, his body is 11 years old now. If Xiaomai was at that age, he would have struggled to lift a hoe.

The vegetable field was divided into seven or eight ridges, and Zhang Xiaoliu estimated the number of seeds, so he only sorted out two ridges.First, the ground was loosened, and then the rapeseed was roughly scattered, and some dried straws were taken from the side and spread thinly.These stalks were probably taken back by Zhang's father in winter to prepare for composting, but Zhang Xiaoliu can't control so much now.

If it goes well, it will take more than 20 days to eat these dishes.Zhang Xiaoliu wiped the sweat from his head, there was no sun, so he decided to familiarize himself with the environment in the afternoon before watering.

This busy work lasted for more than an hour. During this period, Xiaomai walked back and forth several times with Xiaosong on his back, but found that he couldn't help, so he didn't come again.Xiao Liu looked around and began to wonder what could be eaten for lunch?

His eyes fell on a few green thin-leaf plants by the edge of the vegetable field, they must be small bitter herbs, right?He also ate it when he was a child, and it can be used for stir fry or soup.

You can only catch what is what.Thinking of the taste of the steamed bread that he ate in the morning, Zhang Xiaoliu walked over firmly.Fortunately, at first glance, he found that there were not many wild vegetables of this kind, so he simply picked out the little bitter vegetables while cleaning up the weeds.

"Brother, didn't you say that you will eat these wild vegetables when they are bigger?" Zhang Maimai came out while he was working hard, and asked suspiciously.

grow up?Zhang Xiaoliu was taken aback for a moment, then understood again.Modern life is getting better. Some people eat wild vegetables when they are the most tender. Green vegetables are often tender green vegetable seedlings.But for farmers, the small vegetables will be gone if they are pulled out, so they usually eat the leaves when they grow up.

"It's okay, our vegetables will grow up by then. Where's Xiaosong?" Zhang Xiaoliu looked at him with worried eyes, and thought he explained it to him.

"Xiao Song is asleep, let me help brother." Mai Mai squatted down, weeding weeds and pulling wild vegetables with her hands and feet.

The two worked silently for a while, Zhang Xiaoliu watched the pile of wild vegetables getting higher and higher, and remembered Xiaosong's thin body, so he straightened up.

"Xiaomai, brother, go to Dashun's house, take your time, the wild vegetables here are almost ready."

In Zhang Xiaoliu's impression, Dashun should be a very kind person.The life is not very good, but it is much better than those who have three meals a day.Dashun is not a bad person, and he used to help Brother Zhang Xiaoliu with a few buns, but after all, his strength was meager, and he didn't make any substantial changes to their family.

Zhang Xiaoliu went to the house first, and based on his memory, he found a small dusty earthen jar from under the previous bed, poured out the contents and counted them.

Fortunately, there are more than 200 cash.Zhang Xiaoliu smiled wryly, saying that he hadn't felt such a tight budget for several years.

He didn't have time to think about it, he counted five copper coins in the palm of his hand, went out of the house to take a look at the wheat picking up wild vegetables, turned around and walked towards Dashun Momo's house.

The ancient houses were really far apart, even though they were neighbors, Zhang Xiaoliu walked for a while on his unaccustomed short legs.He looked at the house in front of him, and it was indeed better than Zhang's, at least the mud bricks were square, with gray tiles on the roof, and there were more than four rooms.

"Dashun, are you home?" He didn't dare to go in directly, but only shouted loudly at the door.Hearing myself make such a childish voice, I still feel a little uncomfortable.

The half-hidden wooden door was pushed open with a creak, and a middle-aged man in blue-gray poked his head out: "Brother Liu is here? Come in and talk."

Zhang Xiaoliu sized him up a bit, and although he looked at him as a man, but judging from his slightly slender figure, he must be Dashun, so he walked in quickly.

"What do Brother Liu want from me?" Da Shun knew that although the child in front of him was not very old, he was pulling two younger ones behind him, and he never had much time to play around. He must have something to do when he came to see him at this time. , so ask directly.

"Dashun, I want to ask you how many eggs to buy..." Although he had already made up his mind, he was still a little embarrassed to say it.But fortunately, Dashun also has the habit of saving eggs and selling them at fairs, and he is willing to think about it.He lowered his head and handed over the copper plate in his palm.

"It so happens that I still have some eggs here, why don't I get some for you, you'd better save the money for Maimai and the others to buy things..." Da Shun pushed his hand, and his family was not too willing to eat it Eggs, but this child definitely didn't come here to eat because of his own greed.No matter what, there is no way to watch the children starve to death. Let’s just treat it as a good deed. I hope these little guys can survive...

Dashun quickly wrapped ten eggs and put them in his hands, and repeatedly told him: "Go back and untie them and put them under the bed, so that they don't get damaged. Xiaosong is enough to eat one a day, and neither should the two of you." Hungry."

"Thank you, Dashun." Zhang Xiaoliu was very grateful to him for his willingness to help, but he also knew that every egg here was not easy, it was very precious, and he was only willing to give it to children or sick people.So he took the eggs with one hand, quickly stuffed the copper plate into his hand, and after running a few steps away, he turned around and said, "It's not easy to keep a few eggs. If Dashun doesn't take the money, Xiao Liu won't do it next time." Dare to come to the door."

"You little brother..." Da Shun looked at the money in his hand, sighed and shook his head.The baby's temperament is excellent, but she doesn't know that she can't live like this now.

The eggs sold in the market cost almost two pennies, so the money Zhang Xiaoliu gave was just right.Zhang Xiaoliu walked home while thinking about how to improve the conditions at home in the future.

Mai Mai was still pulling wild vegetables, and when she heard her brother's voice, she raised her head to call him, but she saw the egg in his hand and couldn't take her eyes off it.

Seeing him like that, Zhang Xiaoliu naturally knew that this younger brother had almost never eaten eggs, which were considered a luxury for them.Feeling sour at the moment, I stretched out a hand and rubbed his head.

"Brother, go cook, Mai Mai, bring in the little bitter vegetables for me!"

"But brother, we don't have any food left." The spring seeds haven't been planted yet, and the family's food will last until the summer harvest, so the wheat looks sad even though it is young.He didn't know why his brother said that he was going to cook at noon today. They only ate once on weekdays.

"Don't worry about Xiaomai, my brother will figure out a way." Zhang Xiaoliu's younger brother is really pitiful. Thinking about those naughty children that the tutor met every time he taught as if he was fighting a war, he was really sensible and sad.This also made him more determined to stay in this home, after all, he still has two relatives now.

"Okay." Mai Mai really trusted this big brother with all her heart, she didn't say anything after hearing what he said, and walked in with him holding Xiao Kucai.

The light in the house was not very good, and Zhang Xiaoliu was not used to working in such a dim environment, so he searched for a long time before finding a pot on the stove.He heaved a sigh of relief, and finally he didn't sell the iron pot.

It took a lot of effort to clean the pot, and I poured out about half a catty of rice from the rice bag I found in the morning.It would definitely not be enough for three people to make rice, so I had to grab another handful of coarse grains and add water to it to make porridge.

The fire in the stove didn't work well, Zhang Xiaoliu fiddled with it for a long time but failed, finally Xiaomai ran over to help him light it.There was still some firewood in the kitchen, so he used the chopped firewood with confidence.When the fire in the stove was hot, Zhang Xiaoliu scooped some water in the water tank with a small bitter vegetable and began to wash.

Starting tomorrow, I will have to carry water by myself.He took a look, and the water in the tank was almost bottomed out.Xiao Song next door started crying again, and Mai Mai softly coaxed him.

This kind of life has only just begun.

It is not slow to burn the firewood, and after about half an hour, the rice is already boiled.Zhang Xiaoliu took two freshly bought eggs, cracked a crack and poured them into the porridge, then stirred them with a spoon until the eggs turned into egg flowers.I found salt and lard from the corner of the stove and put it on for seasoning, and a pot of delicious egg porridge was ready.

After he found three bowls and let them cool down, he used the wok next to him to blanch the small bitter vegetables, and then fried them for a while before they were ready to serve.

"Wheat, it's time to eat."

The only advantage of a small house is that it can be heard when the voice is louder.As soon as he finished speaking, Mai Mai walked over leading Xiaosong.

"Brother?" Mai Mai looked at the three bowls of porridge on the stove, and looked at Zhang Xiaoliu suspiciously.Egg porridge, almost as long as he can remember, has never been eaten.

"Eat it, it's already cold. There is still porridge in the pot, eat slowly."

At noon that day, Zhang Xiaoliu only ate one and a half bowls before putting down the bowl.Instead, it was Mai and Xiaosong, who seemed to have never tasted such a delicacy, and they scraped up every single grain of porridge left in the pot.
