Qin and others just happened to fill their small backpacks and prepare to go back. When they saw He Jiuniang coming back, they didn't ask any questions and everyone went down the mountain together.

"Second sister-in-law, I found something good, I will show it to you when I get home!"

He Jiuniang acted very excited, which seduced Mrs. Qin and the others. However, He Jiuniang's basket was covered with leaves, making it difficult to see what was inside.

Ms. Yu had just finished cooking and was looking outside the thatched shed. When she saw them coming back, she waved: "Come back for dinner soon!"

"Sister-in-law, The third brother and sister said that she had found something good in the mountains and would not show it to us until she came back. She looked at it first while eating!" Mrs. Sun, who had followed out, also looked at He Jiuniang. Her eyes were burning, obviously telling He Jiuniang to hurry up and stop showing off.

He Jiuniang didn’t want to whet their appetites, so she put down the basket and pulled away the leaves covering it, revealing the yellow potatoes inside.

The potatoes of this era had not been improved and were very small, only as big as a child’s fist.

　“What is this?”

Mrs. Sun frowned, Mrs. Yu also asked: “Wild vegetables?”

He Jiuniang nodded: “That’s right. , but this is different from ordinary wild vegetables. This is like grain. It can fill the stomach and not make you hungry easily. After all, it looks like you are familiar with it!"

Ordinary wild vegetables are all If you eat the leaves, the leaves will shrink. In fact, if you eat them in your stomach, they will not satisfy your hunger, and they cannot be eaten as a staple food. But these things look like steamed buns, so they should be enough to satisfy your hunger, right?

"How do you know? Have you seen it before?"

Mrs. Sun looked at the few small potatoes with some suspicion, and really didn't think these things could be eaten casually.

"I have never seen it, but I heard people talk about it when I was a child. This thing seems to have been introduced from other countries, but I don’t know how it got to the mountains. I heard that it is easy to grow. , and the yield is very large. If we can grow it, there will not be so many refugees in the future."

He Jiuniang had already thought of her rhetoric, which was half true and half false. Anyway, it would make Lu As long as the family is convinced.

"Are you sure it's edible? Will it be poisonous?"

After all, Mr. Sun has lived for most of his life, so he is still very cautious.

He Jiuniang shook her head uncertainly: "I don't know either, it should be possible..."

She scratched her head guiltily and said: "Yes. Why don't you cook a few first and let me taste them? If I'm sure they're not poisonous, then everyone can eat them?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he was slapped by Mrs. Sun: "Do you really think you are the Guanyin Bodhisattva? "

So many people in the family didn't say anything, so she rushed to try the poison. What's not a big complaint?

He Jiuniang felt funny in her heart, but on the surface The boss still said aggrievedly: "I just looked at this thing, it's yellow, and it doesn't look like it's poisonous~"

"The red mushrooms on the mountain don't look poisonous. ! Who do you think didn’t go to bed after eating? "

Mrs. Sun scolded her mercilessly, causing a group of people around her to laugh non-stop.

He Jiuniang said: "Then I will give it to the two horses first. Try it! "

"You prodigal bitch! Mrs. Sun grabbed her and said, "Don't you know that two horses are worth much more than you?" What are you doing to them? ”

Yes, a horse can be sold for more than forty or fifty taels, while the most expensive price for a person is only a dozen taels.

He Jiuniang pursed her lips, it was indeed a bit People are not as good as Maha!

Just when He Jiuniang was about to ask what to do, Sun said categorically: "I'll try! "

At this time, everyone was shocked. Lu Guilan was the first to react, pulling Sun around and almost crying: "Mom, there are so many of us, how can we let you try? I'll try, I'll try! "

Mrs. Yu and Mrs. Qin also expressed their opinions: "Yes, mother, we are saving our lives by letting you try it, let's try it!" "

Mrs. Sun looked at everyone with an extremely serious look: "No one can argue with me! My old lady has lived for most of her life and has eaten more salt than you eat rice. Now that I see a large family living here, my heart has completely dropped. What's more, this stuff isn't necessarily poisonous! ”

What Sun thinks is that if this thing can really be eaten as a staple food, this group of people will have a new way of living, and they will no longer be afraid of famine in the future.

Then, all this she did was worth it!

He Jiuniang:...

Although I thought it was a bit funny, I was actually moved by it.

Ms. Sun cursed her, but offered to try reading it herself.

Even though she knew that the potatoes were not poisonous at all, she still almost couldn’t help but want to hug them. Mrs. Sun.

This little old lady really feels like her mother.

Just as she was about to speak, Lianhua, who went out to take out the garbage, came back and ran to the adults. , clenching his little fists, as if he had made some important decision: "Grandma, let me try it! Grandma’s family saved my life, I’m not afraidYes, let me repay grandma! ”

She didn’t even know what she was going to try, but when she heard that the adults seemed anxious and sad, she stepped forward directly.

Anyway, her life was It was also picked up. If it is really gone, then her life is bad, but if she can survive, she can continue to repay Grandma Lu's family.

"What did the child say? "

Mrs. Sun glared at her and said angrily: "You are a girl from the Qin family. If something happens to our Lu family, how do you want me to explain to your Qin family? Forget it, everyone, go boil some water and boil these things first. "

Mrs. Sun waved her hand and told everyone to do their own thing. Then she pulled He Jiuniang aside and quietly confessed: "The money is in the box under my pillow. If I really Something happened..."

He Jiuniang never expected that Mrs. Sun would begin to explain her funeral affairs, so she hurriedly interrupted: "Stop! Mom, don’t tell me this, I don’t care! If something happens to you, I will take the dog and fly away and never come back! "

He Jiuniang deliberately teased her, making Mrs. Sun so angry that she wanted to twist her arm, but she still calmly said: "Don't make trouble, I am serious to you! I know this family... Hello! The third daughter-in-law! "

He Jiuniang turned around and left before she finished her sensationalism. She was so angry that Sun was so angry that she chased her out with her short legs.

At this time, she followed Lu The children who had gone out to herd the horses when the old man went out also came back. They thought they could eat, and they all sat around the pot and watched eagerly.

After the water boiled, Mrs. Yu put a few washed potatoes into the pot We were all gathered together, but we didn’t smell anything.

“Mom, what is this, is it delicious? "

Leizi looked at the pot with some interest. Although this round thing has no taste, it looks very appetizing!

"My mother doesn’t know either. , your third aunt dug it back from the mountain. "

Ms. Yu shook her head and stood in front of the children, fearing that some of them would get into trouble if they were greedy.

The cooked ones were relatively tender and would quickly become When it was cooked, He Jiu Niang said first, "Mom, I'll peel it for you before you eat it!" ”
