Chapter 156 Sesame Leaf

The weather was still hot and dry, and the endless singing of those tireless cicadas.

After a light rain, all the sesame seeds in the fields bloomed, and the white or pink flowers looked like hanging bells one by one, looking very beautiful.

Several sesame seeds in Liu Junhao's front yard also bloomed pink flowers at this time, attracting many bumblebees to collect honey on them.

When these sesame seeds first grew under the eaves, it was surprising that he himself couldn't remember when he had sprinkled sesame seeds into the yard.

Finally, I thought for a long time before I remembered that Chunshang seemed to have bought a few kilograms of sesame seeds to make sesame salt. It should have been used to pick the yellow tips and leaked on the ground with a winnowing basket.

It is really not easy for them to grow. You should know that these chickens and ducks are digging in the yard every day.

Later, when the sesame seedlings were about ten centimeters long, Liu Junhao felt that being under the eaves was in the way, so he moved them to the corner of the wall beside the flower pond and stopped caring about it. No matter how good these seedlings grow, they cannot receive a pound of sesame seeds. Why do you waste time on them?

However, what he didn't expect was that the sesame seeds grew rapidly after they moved into the flower pond. The bottom was a little thicker than the bamboo in Professor Zhao's courtyard, and several branches were divided into above.

Judging from this momentum, I'm afraid there will definitely be a lot of sesame seeds in autumn.

Liu Junhao was originally afraid that the villagers would see abnormalities, so he finally thought about it. Sesame crops like sparse but not thick. Although this situation is rare, it is not without it. You can often see one or two lonely sesame plants growing in the peanut field or soybean field, and the head is more than one person tall.

Zhang Qian was very interested in the blooming of sesame seeds. She stood by her in danger of being stung by a bee and asked Liu Junhao to take five or six photos of her.

The sesame flowers are full of flowers. She stands there with a smile. It has a bit of "human face and peach blossoms are red".

Liu Junhao was a little moved. He was about to go up and take a photo with her hand. Zhang Qian screamed in surprise and jumped away. She shouted "Bubble Bee"

Liu Junhao was very troubled by these destructive atmospheres. Speaking of which, they have increased again recently. It seems that they will be divided into groups every two days.

"Let's go pinch sesame leaves when we wake up tomorrow morning?" Zhang Qian looked at the sesame seeds for a while and remembered the matter of eating sesame leaves.

Two days ago, Aunt Liu got up early and led Aqin to pinch sesame leaves in the field for a while. She made sesame leaves noodles in the evening.

At first, Zhang Qian was very dissatisfied, but after trying it, she immediately became interested.

After drying the fresh sesame leaves, stir-fry with chopped green onion, chili peppers, and shredded ginger, then throw them into the pot to serve. The sesame leaves are fragrant and the noodles are smooth, and the taste is really great!

"Are you sure you want to go to the field yourself? Why don't we go to the street to buy some dried sesame leaves and taste it fresh? It's so easy to save trouble." Liu Junhao looked at her very much. No matter how you look, it doesn't seem like you are going to work in the fields. The scene of harvesting wheat last time is still vivid in my mind.

Zhang Qian had been so tired after harvesting wheat for a day that her back was sore. She said she was helping for the rest of the days, but in fact she helped to make the wheat waist when she got to the field, and stayed in the shade for the rest of the time.

"Why, I can't go down the floor?" Zhang Qian blushed and looked very dissatisfied.

"No, I mean the eggs are delicious, we don't have to know the hen that lays the eggs." Seeing that his girlfriend was angry, Liu Junhao apologized immediately.

"I just want to know each other today." Zhang Qian really wanted to spend another time in the fields. She has also become a little interested in farm work these days, of course she is just interested. If she really lets her work hard for half a day, she will complain.

"Okay, okay, I agree completely." Although Liu Junhao didn't want to move, in order to satisfy Zhang Qian's curiosity, he still supported him with both hands. But he didn't plant sesame seeds, and if he wanted to pinch it, he could only go to other people's plots.

This problem was quickly solved. Ermazi's wife happened to come to buy eels. When she heard that they were worried about this, she immediately asked them to go to their own fields to pinch them. This year, her family planted more than five acres of sesame leaves, and pinched as much as they wanted to eat.

Sesame leaves are the tender leaves grown from sesame seeds, and are a kind of green vegetable that rural people often eat in summer.

"Sesame leaves have half a year of food, and if they are too low in sun, they will suffer from famine." Every mid-July, the men, women, young and old in the village will take action, and run to the fields with bamboo baskets one by one to pinch sesame leaves.

In less than a week, the sesame seeds in the field became the commander of the bare sesame seeds and sesame seeds left on it.

The sesame leaves you just pinched off cannot be stored for a long time, so you must steam them in the pot immediately. After steaming, take them into the basket and rinse them, and then put them outside to dry. The whole process is quite time-consuming.

At that time, every household had to dry a few sacks of sesame leaves and throw them into the pot when there was no vegetables in winter. Often, they would stir-fry sesame leaves in the morning, sesame leaves noodles at noon, and cool the sesame leaves at night. In short, three meals a day, sesame leaves are indispensable for every meal.

Liu Junhao was a little nauseous when he was a child, so he was not very enthusiastic about Zhang Qian’s suggestions. However, he turned around and thought that he had eaten too much rabbit meat these days, so it would be better to change the taste.

So after breakfast the next day, he and Zhang Qian took the bamboo basket and pinched sesame leaves.

The sesame seeds in this area of ​​home are a little thicker. I can't walk on the ground and I'm afraid of breaking the sesame seeds. I can only stand by the side of the road, but after half a day, I also made a large embroidery basket full of them.

Then I was busy for noon before I cooked the sesame leaves and dried them.

At night, Zhang Qian made a meal of sesame leaves in an anxious manner.

Liu Junhao really missed him a little after not eating it for such a long time. He picked up two chopsticks and tasted it. It was indeed delicious! It was slightly bitter, mixed with thick and long mellow fragrance in the middle. The red peppers were spicy and the noodles were smooth, so it was so exciting!

In this way, he was out of control. He ate a large bowl of sesame leaves and noodles, soup and water, and had all his essence in less than five minutes, and his forehead was sweating.

The rain fell as soon as it was said, but at night it was just a dripping little raindrops. After eating in the morning, the raindrops began to get denser.

Unlike the two little guys who were running around catching fish in the yard with umbrellas, Liu Junhao was moving a chair at the door and staring at the heavy rain in a daze.

By the way, every time it rains, fish, crucian carp shells, meat and wheat shreds, loaches, etc. will surely rush up along the water flow, making people unable to catch them. At this moment, Qingzhuang was completely making noise in the front yard, and kept stretching his head and pecking on the ground.

"Uncle Xiaohao, someone is here at home. Pick two big flower skins for me." He was in a daze, and the little kid ran over with an umbrella.

"Now, eating watermelon on such a cold day?" I don't know which tourist is so unique. He still wants to eat watermelon in heavy rain, and he is not afraid of catching a cold.

"It's not that I'm going to eat now, I'm going to take it away."

Since the watermelon ripened at the end of June, the big flower skins in Liu Junhao's courtyard have been selling well. He also had a rough amount of watermelons sold. So far, it has sold more than 6,000 kilograms, which means that more than 6,000 yuan has been earned.

Like last year, the large flower skins in the backyard are still blooming. Judging from this, you should still harvest a lot of watermelons.

People who came to visit the village had also inquired about the yield of his watermelon. Liu Junhao was afraid that it would be too surprising to say the real data, so he doubled the data. Even so, this number was filled with emotion.

"It's broken, the waterway eyes have forgotten to open"

As soon as I arrived at the backyard, I saw a scene of water flooding Jinshan. Many vegetables had been flooded and only a few leaves were left behind, and the eels and loaches were running around everywhere.

Then he remembered that in order to prevent grass raccoons from coming in to steal melons and eating, he deliberately blocked the two water channels from the backyard from being watered. Now the water in the entire yard is surging forward, no wonder the water flows so much in the front yard.

Liu Junhao quickly rolled up his pants and ran to the corner of the wall, and pulled out several large bricks blocking the waterway.

After standing in the backyard for about ten minutes, he felt relieved as the rain gradually subsided, and picked two large watermelons and carried them to the front yard.

"What are you doing, what are you doing?" After he left for a while, why did Xiao Haoyu chase the ducks and chase them away?

"Uncle Liu, look, we have picked up so many river shrimps, and you can cook them for us later..." Tongtong held a small bucket for him to see as if he was offering treasure.

Well, it seems that she is addicted to eating it. A few days ago, when Liu Junhao was catching eels, he also made a large bowl of river shrimp, so he made a salted river shrimp at noon. As a result, he didn't eat a few bites of this dish at all, and they were all divided by two little guys.

You can't say that the river shrimps here are not big, but they are more delicious.

Pour the shredded green onion and ginger slices into the boiling water, sprinkle with salt, then put the shrimps in and add pepper to cook, and then sprinkle some coriander after they are out of the pot. The taste is absolutely delicious, and the taste is soaked in the shrimp meat.

"Liu Junhao, you are at home." Hearing this voice, it was Sun Yutao and Xu Dongfang who came here. They have been living in Liujiagou these days, and they usually go to Liu Junhao for information online, so they are quite familiar with each other.

"Don't you go up the mountain today?" Liu Junhao hurriedly asked them to sit in the house.

"It rains so heavily, there is no way to go up the mountain to investigate and take a day off."

I originally thought that someone came to surf the Internet, but who knew that they were just coming to chat. I had nothing to do, so I would chat with them.

While chatting, Xiaopi ran into the room with wet all over. The hare in her mouth was thrown in front of Liu Junhao, and then it began to tremble, and the rain on its body shook.

I feel that this guy doesn’t forget to go out hunting on rainy days. He is so dedicated.

At noon, Sun Yutao and the others were naturally left to eat here. Liu Junhao, the braised hare, didn't eat a few bites, and most of them were divided up by the two brothers. He has been eating these days, and he is really annoyed to eat it. Now he thinks that rabbit meat is not as delicious as the cold sesame leaves.

If you don’t eat these sesame leaves for a few years, it has become a good thing. Not only does he like it, but even Zhang Qian never gets tired of it.

These two days they have been eating in a variety of ways, and of course the most common thing they make is sesame leaf noodles.
