In a blink of an eye, it is a good time for spring flowers to bloom, and the wild vegetables in the field have broken through the soil.

The women of each family also went to the field to dig wild vegetables in twos and threes.

Now it's not just about a little more green on the table, it's more about handing it over to the cafeteria.

Last year, the commune's grain harvest failed, but the purchase quota from the higher authorities was higher than in previous years, and most of the grain was handed in.

There is not much left in the society, and if it weren't for the reserve grain of previous years, there would be no food at all at the beginning of spring this year.

In view of this situation, the society decided to organize women to dig wild vegetables in the fields and make vegetable cakes in the canteen at the beginning of spring.

Mix as many wild vegetables as possible, eat with grain, and strive to eat new grain in autumn.

It doesn't matter what kind of wild vegetables you dig up.

Anyway, it's almost clean, scald it with boiling water, mixed with bud rice noodles and sweet potato noodles, and steamed out the vegetable cakes.

Adults are divided into two, children are divided into one, and the reluctant ones are half full, and the rest are filled with vegetables.

But it's spring, where are the vegetables that each family saved last year?

Potatoes should be left to be planted in the ground, cabbage and radishes have long been gone, and what can be counted on now is the wild vegetables in the mountains.

Therefore, there are obviously many more people who go up to the mountain to dig wild vegetables than in previous years, and the big guys are busy in the fields in groups of three or five.

Since Qiao Lian became a doctor in the health center, she has been busy all day long, and she has not had many opportunities to go up the mountain and down the river.

In the second half of the third year of this year, Jiakang has also done heavy homework.

Except for Sunday, when I had time to go into the mountains, I came home late from school the rest of the time.

Where is there still a toss in the mountains and rivers?

Therefore, the Qu family's work of digging wild vegetables is basically taken over by Jia Junjia and these two babies.

The two babies are already ten years old, and they are not short.

Jiajun is especially long and strong, and he has also learned a lot of skills from Qu Weiyang, but he is full of ability.

Jia Junjiahe gets up every morning and goes to the field to dig wild vegetables for an hour, and in the afternoon, after school, he also throws down his schoolbag and goes to the mountains.

When it gets dark, I come back with a basket of vegetables on my back, and I will do my homework in the evening.

The wild vegetables dug by the two babies were kept for some of their own food, and the rest were sent to the canteen during the day.

After all, the Qu family has rations for five people in the canteen, even if they pay less, they have to pay some, which can always be justified.

"Mom, look, we've picked up a nest of duck eggs, right in the grass by the river.

I reckon that there must be wild ducks in that area, and I will go and see them tomorrow morning, and if there is, I will catch them and stew them. ”

That evening, Qiao Lian had just returned home, and before she could wash her hands and help cook, she saw Jia Junjia and the two babies running in happily from outside.

Jiahe pulled the placket of his clothes with his hands, and there were six or seven eggs with pale green skin in the placket, but they were not wild duck eggs?

In the past, it was not worth so much joy to pick up the duck eggs, but is it the same now?

From last autumn to the beginning of spring this year, there was not enough food to eat, and many people went into the mountains to hunt.

No matter how much you get, you can always get something out and improve your life.

As a result, there are fewer and fewer prey in the forest.

Those animals are not stupid, there are many people wandering around the periphery all day long, where do they dare to run to the periphery? They all hid in the depths of the woods and refused to come out.

There were fewer and fewer prey in the woods, and the fish in the river did not escape being caught.

Nowadays, people can be seen everywhere going down to the river to catch fish, and even in the remote places on this side of Shizuizi, there are not as many fish as before.

Jiajun: The basket under them in the river is empty, and it is difficult to see that the basket was full of fish before.

Because of this, Jia Junjia and the two of them were so happy after picking up a few wild duck eggs.

"Mom, let's scramble the duck eggs at night, and the big guy can satisfy his cravings." Jia Jun said as soon as he entered the house.

Jiakang Jiayuan was one class late after class, and she had to get home at six o'clock as soon as she got home.

Qu Weiyang is not at ease, basically he will come back with the children when he does not go out.

It's Qiaolian, if there are no special circumstances, it's not too busy in the afternoon, so when I come to Zhong Qiaolian at four o'clock in the afternoon, I will cook at home.

Now there is a shortage of materials in various places, and the supply in the county has also been reduced a lot, and bud rice and noodles are counted as fine grains.

Qu Weiyang and Qiaolian couldn't blatantly take back what they ate like before, so they could only reduce the number of times and secretly find a way to fill it.

As a result, the standard of living at home has dropped a lot compared to before.

What children look forward to most is to have game to improve their lives.

Qiao Lian looked at her son's expectant look, and naturally couldn't refuse, "Okay, then I'll fry it for you to eat."

By the way, there is sorghum rice tonight, how about mom give you a scrambled egg fried rice to eat? ”

Seven duck eggs looks like a lot, but in fact, it is a small plate when it is fried.

The amount of rice in the family is not small, and this little egg is not enough for them to clip a few chopsticks, but it is better to mix it with fried rice, and the children eat it fragrantly.

"Okay, okay, egg fried rice is the best, Mom, then egg fried rice." As soon as Jia Jun heard the egg fried rice, he immediately became happy.

In this way, Qiao Lian took the seven duck eggs and took them to the kitchen to open them.

Luckily, the egg hadn't hatched yet, and there were no ducklings in it.

So I stirred the eggs, cut a lot of green onions, and then stir-fried the sorghum rice that was stewed at night with duck eggs, a fragrant pot of egg fried rice.

"Alright, the fragrant egg fried rice is out of the pot." Qiao Lian came out of the kitchen with rice, and the aroma suddenly filled the room.

The triplets smelled it and immediately ran to Qiaolian.

"Mom, the eggs are fragrant, I want to eat, Yingying wants to eat."

Xiao Jiaying snorted, looking like a greedy cat.

These three babies are now three years old, they all speak well, and they are all very clever.

Especially the youngest Jiaying, who has loved eggs since she was a child, and loves to eat no matter what she does.

The baby's nose was sharp enough, and he immediately smelled the aroma of eggs, so he shouted to eat.

"Wait a minute, Dad and my brother and sister haven't arrived home yet.

Wait a minute, wait for them to come back and eat together, okay? ”

The rules of the Qu family, under normal circumstances, have to come back to eat together, and the children are not allowed to eat at the table in advance.

Of course, the three babies are small, and in the afternoon, they will be given a meal.

The three babies just ate snacks this afternoon, and they shouldn't be particularly hungry at this time, but they just smell the aroma and are hungry.

The aroma of egg fried rice is in the nose, and Xiao Jiaying's saliva is about to flow out.

But my mother said that she would not be allowed to eat it, and that she would wait for my father and my brothers and sisters to come back together.

The little girl felt a little wronged, but she couldn't say where the grievances were.

So he left the house with a deflated mouth, and came to the yard, staring at the gate with his eyes open, hoping that his father and they would come home soon.

Suddenly, Ah Huang, who was lying on the ground, stood up and ran towards the gate, and when Jia Ying saw Ah Huang's movements, she immediately became happy and ran to the door.

"Daddy, hug." When I came to the door, I saw Qu Weiyang and the three of them coming back, and the little girl immediately stretched out her little arm and shouted for Qu Weiyang to hug her.

Qu Weiyang hurriedly pushed the car into the door, put it aside, and then reached out to scoop up his daughter.

"Our Jiaying is so well-behaved, still waiting for Dad to come home at the door, come, let Dad kiss her."

Saying that, I kissed the girl on the face.
