Chapter 165 Thief?
"You have a good time today. Pork, shepherd's purse dumplings, which are delicious, you can bite off your tongue!" Mu Xiu lifted up the pot and started serving dumplings.
"Come on, I'll help you." Chen Xuhui walked forward.
After taking all the dumplings in, Mu Xiu steamed a basket of corn, wheat bran and coarse grain rice, and put the same thing in the water in the boiling pot. After dinner, the steamed ones can be fed to chicken, duck and geese, and the cooked rice soup is fed to pigs.
On the second day, Mu Xiu followed Mu Shui and Chen Xuhui to the ground. Two powerful laborers each had a shoulder pole and carried two buckets of fertilizer. From a distance, the ground was covered with green.
"Dad, spray this medicine first." Mu Xiu diluted the methyldisulfuron and handed it to Mu Shui.
"Brother Chen, follow my father and spray this medicine." Mu Xiu diluted the difluorosulfonamide again and handed the watering can to Chen Xuhui.
"Xiu, what is this?" Mushui asked.
"This is the medicine I bought in the county yesterday, it is a herbicide, and I happened to be caught up with this little." Mu Xiu replied.
"And this thing? It's the first time I heard of it. Is it useful?" Mushui asked skeptical.
"Just try it out, Dad, put down the fertilizer, you spray the medicine, I'll take the fertilizer." Mu Xiu said.
Mu Xiu took advantage of the fertilizer and used medicinal use of wheat spiders.
After Mushui and Chen Xuhui sprayed the herbicide, they started replanting. The Muxiu family's land emerged relatively evenly, and only the location close to the edge of the field was needed to replant.
In contrast, Chen Xuhui's three-point land was a bit miserable because the seeds were not good and he had never been urged and disinfected. Now he grew up. If it weren't for the fertilizer that Mu Xiu had applied to his field before the winter, it would probably be two-thirds of it would have to be replanted.
"Come on, plant more tightly. You must fertilize more seeds for replanting, so that you can catch up with the growth of the previous seeds." Mu Xiu said.
"Mu Xiu, you are a good seed and you should be able to catch up with the ones growing in front soon." Chen Xuhui saw such a good seed for the first time.
"You must apply fertilizer frequently. The fertilizer is in the pigpen. You can use it yourself and I will all match it." Mu Xiu explained.
"Okay." Chen Xuhui nodded.
The three of them divided the work and quickly finished the land of three parts, took the tools, and walked towards the home. However, when they left, someone looked at Chen Xuhui's back and ran in the opposite direction.
"Xiu, the elm seeds at the village head are very tender. You can pick some chickens and ducks, too." Mu Xiaocao was feeding the chickens. When he saw Mu Xiu coming back, he quickly greeted him.
"Okay, I like to eat elm seeds too." Mu Xiu picked up the basket and ran outside.
"Wait for me, I'll help you." Chen Xuhui also picked up his backpack and followed closely behind.
At this moment, older children were all busy in the field. There were only a few young children in the elm seed tree looking up, and a few of them were already jumping to catch the bottom elm seeds. The anxious look on their faces and the saliva left unconsciously. They were so cute.
There is not much food available now. The tender elm seeds can be used as snacks, and the old ones can be steamed, so people who do not have enough food at home will come out to pick elm seeds in spring.
Chen Xuhui climbed up after a few steps, broke up a few branches and handed them to Mu Xiu under the tree.
Mu Xiu only left one piece, gave the rest to a few children under the tree, and then rubbed it. She put it in her hand and put it in her mouth. Yes, it smells so good, it's this taste, I haven't eaten it for a long time.
Looking at Mu Xiu's satisfied look, Chen Xuhui began to speed up. After a while, there were many branches full of elm seeds in the basket.
Mu Xiu and the children under the tree also eat sweetly.
"Okay, it's full, let's go." Chen Xuhui came down from the tree.
"That's enough, you can make dumplings." Mu Xiu couldn't wait.
"Sister, I still want to eat." A small and gentle voice sounded.
Mu Xiu turned her head and recognized her as Aunt Xiong's grandson. She smiled and picked up a few more elm seeds and handed them to a few little guys. They scattered and squatted aside to eat.
Mu Xiu and Chen Xuhui returned with a load. Li Pandi used to eat the most elm seeds, which was not uncommon now. Mu Xiaocao asked for elm seeds for chickens and ducks. Everyone had eaten elm seeds for many years, so they were not uncommon. Only Mu Xiu was very interested in making elm seeds.
She took the elm seeds off the branches and put them in a large wooden basin. After two or three times, she controlled the moisture and dried it and dried it.
After drying, she first put some salt in it, then finely chopped the onion, ginger and garlic, added a spoonful of oil, and then mixed it with corn flour to make it into dumplings one by one.
After pinching it, steam it in a steamer. By noon, a large pot of steaming golden balls went abroad. The cornmeal was hard and chewy, and the elm seeds inside were fragrant and sweet.
"I didn't expect this show to be so delicious. I have eaten too much yam seeds, and it's the first time I've eaten it like this." Mushui picked up one and took a bite. It was really delicious.
Everyone started to eat it one after another, and soon, a big pot was finished.
"I'll pick some elm seeds tomorrow and let Xiu make more of this." Zhou Shuilian also had a lot of delicious food.
"Okay." Mu Xiu looked at everyone. Everyone liked to eat the food they made, and she felt very satisfied.
After everyone finished their meal, when Chen Xuhui returned, Mu Xiu put a few leftover elm seed dumplings for him and took them back to eat. Chen Xuhui did not refuse and took the food back to his cabin.
But when Chen Xuhui walked to his door, he suddenly stopped vigilantly. When his door left this morning, it was clearly closed, but now the door of the room was wide open...
Chen Xuhui stood outside the door and shouted inside, "Who is it?"
"Oh, you're back." A sharp woman's voice sounded. When Chen Xuhui heard this, blood rushed up the top of his head and his ears began to buzz.
With this sound, a woman with round body and slender limbs walked out of the house in a swagger. Behind the woman was a tall and thin middle-aged man, with a bulging bag behind her.
Chen Xuhui looked closely and saw that the bag was made of the washed white sheet spread on his bed. A red sausage was revealed in one corner of the bag.
"Are you here to steal things?!" Chen Xuhui reacted at this moment, and he angrily scolded the two of them.
