The Life Through Books of the Salted Fish Family

The vegetables in the field are harvested in sevens and eights.

Every yard is green.

The Yan family wanted to pickle vegetables, and the women in the village also came to join in the fun. In fact, they came to help. Knowing that Mrs. Yan was too heavy to do the work, the old vegetables had to be washed and put into the vat. When do you have to go.

They all brought their own kitchen knives to help with washing and cutting. Not to mention, when there are too many people, it's fast to chat and work.

Da Ya can also start cutting vegetables, only Yan Yu, who is young, the aunts are worried, and they won't let her do anything, so she has to follow along.

I can't move too many dishes at a time, I'm so tired.

The cabbage was piled up in Yan's big vat before noon, and Nanny Rong put stones on it.

This sauerkraut jar is all alive.

Li Xuemei watched from the side, talking profusely.

She specifically asked Madam Rong to save some spicy cabbage.

Chili powder is rare, but she can't help it, she just wants to eat it.

Nanny Rong nodded with a smile, and gestured with her hands that there are still some in the cellar.

He took her to the kitchen again and showed her a pot of spicy cabbage that had already been made.

The white, red and green pot looks indescribably appetizing.

She couldn't help but start directly. The moment the spicy cabbage was put into her mouth, it was salty, spicy and slightly sweet with a hint of undetectable fruit acid. It was so delicious that it made people want to cry.

With the thought of taking one more bite, one last bite, Li Xuemei fed herself up...

She still wanted to eat more, but Nanny Rong stopped her, put the lid on the pot of spicy cabbage and took it away.

Poured her a glass of warm water.

Reluctantly leaving the kitchen, Li Xuemei's stomach was full, but she was still a little greedy and wanted to eat.

When Yan Yu returned to the house, her little nose moved and she smelled a familiar smell.

"Mom, what are you eating? Spicy cabbage?"

Li Xuemei was washing her hands, she grabbed it with her hands just now, now thinking about why she is so useless, why can't she use chopsticks.

But at that time, a pot of spicy cabbage was in front of her eyes, and she really couldn't wait for a moment.

Put your hand in front of your nose and smell it, the smell is already very weak, can you smell it? Her daughter's sense of smell is also gone.

"Nurse Rong made spicy cabbage." She added: "Not many, only one pot."

Yan Yu is not a real child, how can she not see that her mother is protecting food.

"Mother, do you think this is a younger brother or a younger sister? It's not allowed to be a sour or spicy girl. You like sour and spicy food, so it's all up to you."

Yan Yu thought of something, and said regretfully: "Uncle, there is no one who can check the body for the time being, otherwise it would be great if we knew the men and women in advance, and the pulse of the powerful doctor can be given out. We don't know anyone else, so I will wait for him Come back and let him feel the pulse."

Li Xuemei didn't take it seriously: "Nurse Rong can find out, but I held back and didn't ask."

Yan Yu was shocked, okay?

Can Nanny Rong find out?

No, why didn't her mother ask? !

"Mom, there is no sexism in our family, and we don't know how to do anything. Wouldn't it be better to know in advance and prepare for it, such as small clothes and quilts, boys and girls are different."

Li Xuemei looked at her with a smile: "What's the difference? You can still make cloth of other colors? In our current situation, what's the use? Mrs. Qi prepared a lot for me. Take a look, everything It is a new cloth that has been soaked in a lot of water by rubbing it out with your hands little by little, but it is soft."

Yan Yu saw that there were quite a few.

There is also a small Baijia garment, the stitches are so tight, I don't know how thin the thread is, and it feels very smooth.

Li Xuemei saw that her daughter was interested, so she showed her collection one by one.

"Look at this, the little tiger hat, it's so well sewn, it was made by a girl from the Hu family, count the days, this little one must have been born in winter, and the little forehead just fits it."

"This is mine. I wrap it on my head and wear it during confinement."

"Your grandma Qi made a whole set, cloak, quilt, bellyband..."

"Your aunt said that there is an old saying, 'Auntie's shoes are my aunt's socks'. She made two pairs of small shoes, one smaller and the other larger."

"And this one, what do you think?" Li Xuemei took out a piece of cloth and looked at her expectantly.

Yan Yu flipped over and wrapped the ropes on both sides around her neck, "Is this a bib? It's so small, mother!"

"Haha!" Li Xuemei smiled happily: "I made this, of course it's small for you, but it's just right for this small one."

Yan Yu felt that she had to do something as a sister, and asked her mother: "Mom, is there anything else I can do?"

"Diapers, we are short of this, not enough." Li Xuemei joked with a smile.

Although it was a joke, Yan Yu really listened to it.

"It's not easy. I'll cut some more, soften them, wash them and prepare them."

She said she was going to find Boo.

Walking to the door, I remembered something.

"Mother, Dad said to let me go there the next day. Today...although it's not, I'll go there to see how he's doing and whether he's getting used to it."

Li Xuemei didn't think much, said: "You go, your father is not sure what to worry about, you can say a few nice words to comfort him."

Yan Yu said hello.

After leaving the room, he immediately turned to the kitchen to look for Madam Rong.

Afraid that her mother would hear it, she purposely lowered her voice and asked excitedly: "Nurse Rong, is the cub in my mother's belly a boy or a girl?!"

Without waiting for Mammy Rong to answer, she stretched out her two hands and said eagerly: "You don't need to draw or write. If it's a boy, hold my left hand; if it's a girl, hold my right hand." .”

Her mother wants to experience the surprise of opening the blind box, but she doesn't!

She needs to know in advance!

Ahhh!

So excited, so excited!

Nanny Rong stretched out her hand and held her...

Yan Yu is so happy!

She made sure again and again, and when she learned that the result would not change, she stomped her feet happily.

"Nurse Rong, this is our secret, don't tell my mother, I know!" Yan Yu instructed.

Another thought was wrong, Nanny Rong must be biased towards her mother, who made her just the twelfth elder brother, and her mother is the empress...

"My mother doesn't ask you, don't say I did."

Seeing Nanny Rong nodding, Yan Yu was satisfied.

Jumping out of the yard, she went straight to the backyard to find her beloved little bald donkey.

Hurry up and share the good news with Dad!

It is difficult to understand the mind of a pregnant woman, but her father must be the same as her, if he knew it earlier, he would definitely want to know it earlier!

Before going out, Yan Yu went around the training ground.

From the bamboo crossbow, the children practiced more seriously, and there were not many bamboo arrows made of leftover materials, but it didn't matter, the children of the peasant family had strong hands-on skills, and it was no problem to cut a simple wooden arrow.

Ten sticks per person, and then change.

The people stopped and crossbows kept going, and the arrow targets were riddled with holes.

Then I had to stop and shoot some targets.

Yan Yu thought about it, took a bamboo crossbow and left, and let her father and elder brother take a look at the finished product.

The next update is very late, the house is suddenly very sleepy, it will probably be in the afternoon~
