Chapter 146: Harvest Scene
Regarding this change of Mrs. Chen, Qiao Lian can't say whether she is happy or unhappy.
How to say it, she is not the original owner after all, the core has long been replaced by Chen Qiaoqiao, and she is finally separated by a layer, which is different from Qiaojuan.
Qiaojuan is the old lady's daughter, so she naturally hopes to have a better relationship with her mother.
The old lady is still the same as before, Qiaolian can accept it, the big deal is to walk around a few times.
The old lady has changed, no matter what is behind this change, Qiaolian is also happy to see it, how good is it to smile every time the mother and daughter meet? It's comfortable, too.
She doesn't have much mother-daughter affection for the old lady of the Chen family, at most, it is for the sake of the original owner's face, and she will send something to the past of the New Year's Festival, that's all.
Therefore, Qiaolian did not have much hope and expectation for the transformation of the old lady of the Chen family, everything was fateful, as long as the Chen family did not come to her to make trouble, she was also willing to maintain a superficial relationship with her mother's family.
After all, a married woman must always have a maiden family to take care of, no matter whether the maiden family is up to the top or not, in the eyes of outsiders, the maiden family has three elder brothers, that is, to rely on.
"Okay, our mother is smart to do this, let's see through it, don't say it, what should we do.
As long as our three sisters-in-law don't come to me and answer me, I don't care about the rest. Qiao Lian smiled and said while washing the vegetables.
"Yes, that's the case, my mother is my mother, and since I was a child, I have pulled us up with a handful of and urine, and we can't watch it. But the others, I don't care. Qiaojuan said the same.
The two sisters agreed on the same page, but there was nothing to argue about, so they made a meal, and at noon a few big men came back and devoured it, and went to work in the field.
Qiaolian's family does not have much land, a total of eight acres, and she leads the children to do half of it herself, and the rest is sweet potatoes.
The big guy was busy for two days, and most of the sweet potatoes were put away and piled up in the Qu family's warehouse, and Qiao Lianai could be disposed of as much as he wanted.
All the grain was taken back to the house, the sorghum millet was tied and hung on the top of the barn, and the bud rice was piled up on the ground waiting to be put into the bud rice building after peeling the skin.
The soybeans are bundled in bundles and stacked in the open space outside the garden poles, dried for a few more days, and the beans can be beaten after the pods have dried a little more. There are still piles of sweet potatoes in the barn, and they are almost a hill.
Don't look at the only eight acres of land, but the crops harvested are more than the ten acres of land in Shijiagou before, Qiaolian roughly estimated, and it is impossible to run if there is an extra four or five percent.
It is all from spring to autumn, but the harvest is much more than there, this sense of achievement, the joy of the harvest, is really very happy, every day when I come out to see the yard full of food, the mood is very happy.
Once the crops are recovered, they can be disposed of slowly, and the most important thing at the moment is what is in the mountains.
At this time, there are many wild fruits, nuts, mushrooms, etc. in the forest, Qiaolian doesn't plan to be idle at home, she has to go into the mountains to get some useful points, otherwise where can she sit and eat the mountains?
Now that she is pregnant with children, it is likely that she will have two babies, and she will raise four children in the future, so she must save more money, otherwise how can it be enough?
Therefore, the day after the grain was returned home, Qiaolian led Jiakang Jiayuan and her two children into the mountain.
They don't go too deep in vain, just on the periphery, and at this time there are all kinds of food in the mountains, and the big beasts can fill their stomachs and will not run outside, so it is safer.
In the mountains and forests in autumn, there are the most selfless gifts of nature.
There are yellow pine towers, fluffy wild hazelnuts, and clusters of clumps on the trees.
On the vines between the trees, there are bunches of purple-red mountain grapes, schisandra berries as red as agate, and soft jujube kiwi fruits as green as jade.
On the ground of the mountain forest, there are pecans that have fallen on the ground, and hazelnut mushrooms that have just emerged.
The fresh and tender hazelnut mushrooms, like naughty little dolls, emerge from the dead branches and fallen leaves, in clusters and clusters.
The round cap is like a little doll's head, and it looks so pleasing that people are very happy when they see it.
"Jiakang Jiayuan, you two are still young, you are not allowed to climb trees, just pick mushrooms, walnuts, and wisps, we are not greedy, we can pick up anything.
Mom is a little stupid now, and she doesn't dare to climb trees, so I can get some of it anyway.
Let's take advantage of this time of autumn to row more at home, and eat more in winter, you know? "When I entered the forest and saw the mountains full of good things, Qiaolian instructed the children.
Hazel mushrooms are kept for stewed chicken, chicken stewed with mushrooms is a rare delicacy in winter, and walnuts are nutritious enough to keep for children.
Qiaolian plans to raise two more pigs next year, and it is a good thing to feed the pigs, pick up more, and you can save a lot of feed.
As for what mountain grapes, soft dates, and schisandra chinensis, if there are more, they will be sold to the system, and if they are less, they will be kept for their own use.
And Songta, Qiaolian doesn't think about it, she doesn't want to go up the tree this year, such a big belly is too stupid, don't be sassy, let's honestly get something stable.
So the three of them don't care so much, they pick up whatever they meet, as long as there is no danger.
The forest here is rich in resources, and the neighborhood is sparsely populated, and there are basically no people in the forest, and there are things, so you don't have to think much about it, just look down and pick it up.
As long as the weather is good, the three mothers will enter the mountain, and after a few days, the courtyard of the Qu family will be even more lively.
A few broken mats were hung with schisandra berries on top, and there was a pile of pecans at the other end, and a large pile of buds next to it.
Outside the warehouse under the eaves, bunches of mushrooms are hung, which really looks like a good harvest.
In the midst of the hustle and bustle, the Mid-Autumn Festival in August has arrived.
This is the first Mid-Autumn Festival that Qiaolian and the children have moved to Shizuizi, although Qu Weiyang is not at home, Qiaolian still plans to prepare well and lead the children to celebrate the festival.
Originally, Qiaolian planned to drive the children around the county town during the festival, and let the children have a long experience.
But she was pregnant, and a few days ago she was probably a little tired from entering the mountains, and her body was not very comfortable, so she had no choice, so she had to find an excuse to go out by herself on the fourteenth day, and went home after a turn and changed a lot of things.
Qiao Lian had just moved her things into the house and sat down, and before she could catch her breath, Qiao Juan's movement came from outside.
"Second sister, our mother said, tomorrow is the holiday, let us all go back to Chen's house for the holiday, saying that the family will be reunited." The words fell, and Qiao Juan walked in from outside.
"Go back to our mother for a reunion? Why is our mother willing to spend money to prepare meals and let us all go back? Sister, what's going on at home, right? ”
Qiaolian is not so naïve, she thinks that this is because the old lady misses them, and sincerely invites them to go back for reunion.
I guess there is something going on at home, and this is to discuss with them. "Lack of money at home? Come to us for money? Qiao Lian secretly guessed.
