Chapter 16 Fresh Food

When Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Wu saw it, their hearts jumped and they were a little worried. The things their mother-in-law put into the porridge had never been seen before. Is it really edible? It won't waste the food, right?!

The two sisters began to worry about the meal in the evening, but they did not dare to speak to stop the mother-in-law. After the Zhang family knocked her out, her parents-in-law became much tougher. Thinking about what happened to the Zhang family, the parents-in-law were still angry, so they still followed the old couple's advice.

good.

Pei Yu saw the worried expressions on the two daughters-in-law's faces and ignored it. It was useless to talk about this thing. It would be better to wait until they had eaten it before talking about it. Only then would it be convincing.

Gradually, the aroma of sweet potato porridge began to permeate the kitchen, and the expressions of Wu and Wang changed from confusion to expectation. The porridge in this pot is so fragrant! It also has a sweet taste.

Brother Song and his sisters also smelled some fragrance outside, and unconsciously thought about what their mother had done at night? The white rice porridge smells fragrant, but it is not sweet. What is this sweet smell?

The brothers and sisters looked at Song Heng who was sitting in the main room, and none of them dared to speak. The elders had to wink and instruct Song Mingzhu to go to the kitchen to have a look. Song Mingzhu was also greedy for the smell, and immediately went to pry around.

Information.

Song Mingzhu was quite obedient when she entered the kitchen. She first took the chopsticks obediently, then carefully stood aside and looked at them again and again.

Pei Yu couldn't help but laugh when he saw the little girl poking her head around: "Stop looking and quickly go set the dishes and chopsticks and eat right away."

"I'll go right away!" Song Mingzhu heard the words and immediately went out with the bowl in her arms.

When the food was served, everyone was staring at the sweet potato porridge and swallowing their saliva. Today's porridge was so delicious.

Pei Yu shared the food with everyone as usual, and because he added a lot of sweet potatoes, everyone had a solid bowl of porridge today, and there was nothing watery at all.

Song Heng looked at the sweet potatoes in the porridge. It was an unfamiliar food, but if his wife dared to cook it, he would dare to eat it: "Eat."

As soon as the voice fell, everyone immediately started moving.

The soft, glutinous and sweet sweet potatoes were delicious as soon as they entered the mouth. Everyone who was originally curious and wanted to ask questions immediately put their questions behind them. The most important thing now is to eat.

After finishing his meal, Mr. Song remembered and asked, "Mom, what was added to the porridge today? It's so delicious."

Pei Yu was waiting: "I dug the fruits of the wild vegetable vine when I took the third child and Mingzhu to the mountain this morning."

When Song Mingli was named, he immediately thought of the dirt pit that caused his mother to step in: "It's the dirt bump that made my mother fall down!"

Song Heng, who was originally the old god, suddenly became nervous when he heard this: "Where did you fall? Is it serious?"

Pei Yu looked at him helplessly: "I didn't fall, I just stepped on the air." The boss's acting skills are so good!

"Dad! Mom didn't fall, I avenged her!" Song Mingli seemed to have an idea now, and he didn't forget to take credit for himself. He looked at Song Heng expectantly, waiting for praise.

Song Heng breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and looked at his stupid cheap son and nodded: "Well, you did a good job. I will protect your mother in the future."

Song Mingli was very happy after receiving his father's praise, and nodded vigorously: "I protect mother!"

Unlike Song Heng, Pei Yu was much more delicate in his thinking. Thinking of the emotional neglect of the child by the original couple before, he couldn't help but lament that the child lacked emotional care from his parents.

Song Lao Er did not wait for Song Lao Er to come forward now, and said to himself: "Mom, do wild vegetables and vines bear fruit?"

This was the first time he had seen this kind of food. He knew about wild vegetable vines. When he was a child, he secretly followed a hunter to the back mountains for hunting. He even tripped over it. The hunter said it was wild vegetable vines and the young leaves were edible, so he picked a handful and brought them back.

Home, after all, he hadn't caught any prey, and he didn't want to go there empty-handed.

As for why he remembered it so clearly, it was of course because he was beaten by his mother-in-law when he returned home, and the beating was deeply remembered.

Pei Yu looked at the always low-key second son and explained: "It grows in the ground, just like a radish, but it is buried deeper. It is rare in our land. If it grows little, no one will dig it out. It is the same today."

Discovered by accident.”

After saying this, Pei Yu's mind flashed back to the memory of his second son being picked up when he was a child, and he was a little surprised.

After listening to their mother's explanation, Song Lao Er and Song Lao Er suddenly realized that it was no wonder they had never seen it before. This thing was buried deep, and there were few wild vegetables and vines. If they didn't go into the back mountains, they wouldn't encounter it. Song Lao Er was the only one in their family to pick it.

One time, I ended up being beaten up by the fat mother. It was really a naughty thing to sneak away to hunt, and the hunter was also very ambitious.

When Pei Yu saw that someone in the family knew about sweet potatoes, he immediately became aware of it. He was originally worried that no one would know about growing this kind of thing and it would be too unconventional. But now he doesn't worry about it. Since he has seen and eaten sweet potato leaves, it is not special.

"Aren't you still worried about food today? I see that this thing has a lot of fruit and I'm very hungry. The leaves can also be eaten as vegetables. Tomorrow you can take the roots and plant them in the vegetable patch in the backyard. Look.

If you can grow it, you can still eat it."

Pei Yu remembered that her grandfather planted sweet potatoes when she was a child. At that time, she went to play in the fields with her. She curiously asked her grandfather how sweet potatoes grew. If she remembered correctly, sweet potatoes can be grown with vine roots, but she did not remember the planting season.

.

Just in case, Pei Yucai left the large sweet potatoes to see if they could be germinated and planted. The shelf life of the sweet potatoes is still OK.

When Boss Song heard this, he immediately nodded: "Yes, mother, I will clear a piece of land with my second brother early tomorrow morning." Boss Song thought about the food at home, and also thought that his mother did not intend to be as frugal as before.

It doesn't matter whether the wild vegetables and vines are vegetables or grains, as long as they can be eaten, he will grow them! Everything that can be eaten these days is good.

Song Laoer also nodded in agreement. This fruit doesn't seem big, but it tastes sweet. It's really delicious when cooked with porridge. Even if it can't be used as food, it can be eaten as a vegetable. It's not troublesome to grow one kind. If you can grow it, it will naturally be the best.

good.

Pei Yu could understand what the two brothers were thinking by looking at their expressions. Although the brothers had read books, they lived in a simple environment. Over the years, they had been focused on the fields and had no scheming. This was obvious, so she didn't say anything.

The yield of sweet potatoes will be determined, and when the time comes, the seeds will be alive and the sweet potatoes will come out, and everyone will be happy.

The main reason is that Pei Yu is not sure. She knows nothing about farming. She knows how to make sweet potatoes. She can only rely on her sons to grow. She is not sure whether she can survive or how much she can grow.

Seeing that the family has new income, even if they don't know how much they can harvest, Song Lao Er and Song Lao Er feel a lot more at ease. Both brothers slept comfortably tonight.

The food issue was settled, and Pei Yu felt more relaxed. After several days of drinking white rice and multigrain porridge, the Song family gradually got used to it. If they eat pure multigrain porridge again, they would definitely dislike it.
