"Sister-in-law, is your belly already five months old? Are you still taking me to pick cauliflower?" Chen Xiayue followed Hu Xiaofang while looking at her bulging belly.

"It's only five months, so it's fine." Hu Xiaofang waved her hand, she had given birth to two before, and this one wasn't that hard. And it's only a five-month-old belly. She was still working in the field for eight months of pregnancy.

"Don't you have a lot of vegetables at home? Why do you have to pick cauliflower?" Chen Xiayue said helplessly, she really didn't lack vegetables to eat.

There are a lot of vegetables grown in the yard of her house. Even if there are no vegetables in her yard, she can buy them from the 21st century or from the interstellar side. There is no need to see wild vegetables and go to pick them excitedly.

However, eating wild vegetables is also a change of taste. After all, some wild vegetables taste very good. Wild vegetables such as revolutionary vegetables, shepherd's purse, dandelion, cauliflower, leek, and bracken are delicious.

But even if the wild vegetables taste good, you have to be willing to put oil. After all, many wild vegetables are a bit bitter, such as cauliflower, which is a bit bitter.

She hadn't put oil fruit trees on the Yunhe Brigade before, so everyone in the Yunhe Brigade was saving on oil. Even if there are so many oil fruit trees in Yunhe Seventh Team, they are not open to eat. The oil fruit is all picked and sold, and not many are kept for home eating.

"Even if you want to eat cauliflower, don't you have some at home?" Chen Xiayue asked.

There are quite a lot of vegetables like cauliflower growing in the wild, but there are also quite a lot of vegetables growing in their own vegetable fields and ridges. Even in the fields, there is a lot of cauliflower growing in the field after the rice is cut and the straws are burned. After all, there is straw ash where the straws are burned, and the ground is very fertile, so the cauliflower can grow very well.

There are also a lot of wild vegetables such as cauliflower in your own vegetable field. It doesn’t matter what kind of vegetables you grow, anyway, there will always be cauliflowers that grow. If you are reluctant to get rid of them, let them grow by themselves, and pick them when they grow up. .

So why do you go to the mountains to pick cauliflower when you have cauliflower in your vegetable field? The mountain is not without danger. Especially this era is not the era when animals are protected animals in a few decades. There are many wild animals in this era, and you may encounter pythons or something if you are not careful.

Poisonous snakes and pythons are really common in tropical rain forests, in addition to various mosquitoes such as mountain leech, mosquitoes and so on. Chen Xiayue didn't like going up the mountain very much. If it weren't for the mosquito repellent kit, she really wouldn't go out to places with lush plants.

She remembered the time when the system hadn't rewarded her Stinky Grass for going up the mountain with Zhang Chengchuan. The mountain leech on the roadside really gave her goosebumps. Now even with the mosquito repellent kit, she doesn't want to go up the mountain to see the leech.

"The ones at home haven't grown after eating before, the ones on the mountain are more tender." Hu Xiaofang said with a smile, "The wild vegetables around our brigade are growing very well, so no one in our village went up the mountain to pick those cauliflowers. I found this when I went to chop wood yesterday."

"I found out yesterday, but I didn't pick it up directly, but waited for you to pick it up with you today. Do you think I'm being nice to you?" Hu Xiaofang said proudly.

Chen next month nodded helplessly, and went to pick wild vegetables with Hu Xiaofang.

Hu Xiaofang was right, the piece of cauliflower she found was very tender and had huge leaves. You must know that the leaves of cauliflower will be very small after picking several times. The cauliflower that has just grown may grow thick and tender, but the leaves will be much smaller after picking the new shoots several times.

Some of the leaves Hu Xiaofang discovered were almost as big as half a palm, and some were even bigger than half a palm. And the cauliflower grows very tender, Chen Xiayue feels that these should not have such a heavy bitter taste.

The bitterness of the tender white cauliflower that has just grown is not so heavy, and the bitterness is generally the kind of tender buds that have been picked several times.

Chen Xiayue picked a lot of cauliflower, and then took the knife to dig the root of Lei Gong.

These Lei Gong Heels are also very tender, the petioles of the leaves are still tender and tender red, and the leaves are relatively large, some are as big as the cap of a mineral water bottle, and some are even larger.

Chen Xiayue is also quite satisfied, the Lei Gonggen is more tender and more delicious. If it is older, it is more suitable for cooking in soup. Such Lei Gong Root is more suitable for cooking in broth, which absorbs the oil in the broth and the taste of the soup.

And tender Leigonggen is suitable for cold salad, and the taste of cold salad will be better.

Chen Xiayue and Hu Xiaofang spent about a morning picking the cauliflower and finally dug up the cauliflower and Lei Gonggen. The bamboo basket she brought was not too small, with the picked cauliflower at the bottom and Lei Gong root at the top, and the portion was not small.

Chen Xiayue looked at the time, it was already past eleven o'clock, she called out Hu Xiaofang, "sister-in-law, it's almost noon, go home? You still have a child in your stomach, go back to eat early, you can't be hungry. write."

Hu Xiaofang was so happy digging wild vegetables that she forgot the time. If Chen Xiayue reminded her that she forgot, and she didn't feel hungry.

"Haha, I'm a little excited, I forgot the time." Hu Xiaofang said embarrassedly, carried her backpack, walked to Chen Xiayue's side and said, "Let's go, it's almost time to go home."

"I dug up so many Lei Gonggen, I should be able to eat two or three meals." Hu Xiaofang looked at Lei Gonggen in his bamboo basket and said.

"It's not bad. It's okay to eat once in a while." Chen Xiayue stood up and hammered her waist, always bending or squatting to dig Lei Gonggen. Her waist was a bit unbearable, and she exercised too little.

And Hu Xiaofang has no discomfort with her five-month-old belly. She is used to doing farm work all the year round, so she doesn't have symptoms like Chen Xiayue's discomfort.

The two sisters chatted while working, and they were also chatting on the way back.

"Xia Yue, don't you know? Ye Zhiqing, who followed Lin Zhiqing back to the city before, actually wrote to the group of people in the Zhiqing Academy." Hu Xiaofang said gossip.

"Ye Zhiqing?" Chen Xiayue was stunned for a while when Hu Xiaofang talked about Ye Zhiqing, and it took a while to remember who this Ye Zhiqing was, and then she wondered, "Why did she write to the educated youth of the educated youth institute? Did the educated youth have any relatives? Also, I remember that before Ye Zhiqing left, the relationship with the people in the educated youth institute didn't seem to be that good."

"Who knows? Anyway, she wrote a letter to the female educated youth named Lin Yue, and then that Lin Yue publicized the contents of Ye Zhiqing's letter." Hu Xiaofang shrugged, "Ye Zhiqing said in the letter that he and Lin After the educated youth returned to the city, he found a job with the help of Lin Zhiqing's family, and Lin Zhiqing treated her very well."

"Anyway, Ye Zhiqing lived a good life in the city. According to Lin Yuezhiqing's meaning, Ye Zhiqing wrote this letter purely to show off."
