"Sister in law, I'll go with you!" Guo Er followed.
Wang Guiying took a dustpan and a sickle. Two small groups came curiously, "grandma, what's this?"
"This is called dustpan, which is used for packing vegetables. This sickle baby can't move. Be careful to cut your hand. " Wang Guiying said.
"Oh." The two small groups looked at the sickle curiously. It was so slender and curved. It was really fun.
"Grandma, where is the vegetable field? Is it far? " Asked Pingping.
"Not far, just behind the yard." With a dustpan, Wang Guiying took everyone to the back door of the yard, opened the bolt, and there was a vegetable field behind.
Although it is winter, the weather is sunny and sunny, and the vegetable field is full of vitality.
A bed of Chinese cabbage has been planted. Rape flowers are blooming, and bees are buzzing to collect nectar.
The half border planted on the side is white radish, and the half border is carrot. The radish leaves are green and oily. The white radish grows underground, and a section of white radish can be seen exposed on the ground.
On the other side are celery and garlic seedlings. When you look at the ground, it's very dark. It's plant ash.
Celery and garlic seedlings like fertilizer and humidity. The plant ash is mainly potassium fertilizer, but it is easy to fly in dry weather, so they are covered with a layer of dry thatch and sprinkled with water to keep the fertilizer and keep the heat at the same time. So celery and garlic grow very well, green, like a layer of oil.
On the side is red vegetable moss, which also grows well, red purple, and the vegetable heart is already very high.
There are also cabbage and cauliflower on the side. They are mainly these vegetables in winter, such as cucumber and pepper. They are all summer vegetables. There is no greenhouse. They can't be planted in winter and will freeze to death.
"There are quite a lot of dishes this year." Guo Xiang said.
"Yes, the weather is fine and warm this year, and the dishes are growing well. But look at that vegetable heart. It's all on the heart. If you don't pick it, it's old and not delicious. " Wang Guiying pointed to the border of Chinese cabbage and said.
Wang Guiying picked up the sickle. "Look here. I'll cut down some of the vegetables."
The two small groups were curious to see so many dishes. They followed Guo'er and asked what it was, and Guo'er answered them patiently.
"This flower is so beautiful. Can I pick it?" Ann pointed to a rape flower in front of her.
"Yes, my aunt taught you." Guo'er said with a smile, "look, you pinch your fingers here and fold them hard."
"I'll come, I'll come!" An anhuan shouted and found a new flower. It broke down as soon as it was folded.
"Is this a bee?" Pingping pointed to a bee on a flower. I've seen it in the book, but I haven't seen it in kind.
"Yes, be careful. Don't pick that flower. Be careful it stings you. It hurts." Fruit reminder.
"Oh!" Move to the side quietly. He doesn't dare to provoke bees.
"Ping Ping, an an, come here. Let's pull the radish." Guo Xiang is calling over there.
"Pull out the radish?" The eyes of the two little dumplings lit up. They learned the children's song "pulling the radish", but they had never seen what the radish really grew in the field was like.
"Pull out the radish, pull out the radish, hey, hey, you can't pull out..." the two small groups ran to Guo Xiang while singing.
"Come on, mom, teach you to pull out the radish." Guo Xiang smiled and opened the turnip leaves. "See the turnip below?"
"See!" The two small groups said in unison.
"Shall we pull out the baby radish?" Guo Xiang smiled, "grab the radish leaf and pull it up..."
Two small groups each grabbed a radish. The radish leaves pricked their hands a little. Ann tooted her mouth. When she saw that her brother didn't say a word, she didn't speak.
Pull it up hard, but the strength is too small to pull it out at all.
"Brother, I'll help you!" Ann gave up her radish, went to Pingping, held out her little hand and grabbed the radish leaf, "one, two, three..."
Suddenly Ann "plops" on the ground. She looks at the broken leaf on her hand. How can this happen?
Guo Xiang lost his smile. An an's flat mouth was so wronged that his mother didn't love him and laughed at herself.
Guo Xiang hurried over, helped Ann up and patted her little ass, "did it hurt?"
Ann tooted her mouth, tears in her eyes, and said wrongfully, "it doesn't hurt!"
"Come on, mom, teach you. It's not easy to break the leaves at the root when pulling out the radish. Baby, try again? " Guo Xiang said.
Pingping heard what her mother said and quietly moved her hand down a little. In fact, it was the same when her mother just demonstrated, but they didn't pay attention. They just paid attention to her saying to catch the leaves.
Grasp the root of the radish, pull out the radish with a force.
"Oh, I pulled it out!" Pingpinghuan shouted.
Ann's desire to win also got up, squatted down, grabbed a radish, pulled it out, and squatted on the ground. However, looking at the radish in her hand, she couldn't care about the pain in her ass and showed off to her mother, "I pulled it out too!"
"Ann is great!" Guo Xiang smiled.
With the results, the two children worked hard, put the radish on the ground and began to look for the next goal.
"Don't pull so much." Guo Xiang said.
"It's all right. Let them play. What they pull out can be put into the jar to make sour radish." Wang Guiying smiled. Seeing the two grandchildren having such a good time, I can't bear to interrupt their enthusiasm.
Guo Xiang went to help Wang Guiying take the cabbage.
The whole Chinese cabbage is cut down. There are some dilapidated leaves outside. Guo Xiang helps to tidy it up.
"Mother, do you want any more of these leaves?"
"Yes, it can be fed to pigs. Put it aside first. If it can't fit, come and get it later." Wang Guiying said.
"Good!" Guo Xiang nodded, peeled and put aside some yellow and damaged leaves outside, picked off the cabbage and put it in the dustpan.
Guo'er used to pull out garlic seedlings. "It's safe and safe. Come and pull out garlic seedlings. It's easy."
The child is still young and weak. Some radishes are bigger and deep. They can't pull them out.
Two small balls ran past. The garlic sprouts were much better. They pulled them out at once. They had a lot of fun.
The vegetable field is so fun!
Guo Xiang let them have fun when he saw them. He couldn't experience such a life in the city.
It's good for children to have more contact with nature and more grounding.
Suddenly Ann screamed, "what's the matter?" Guo Xiang was startled.
"Insects, insects..." Ann pointed to the cabbage on the side and shouted in horror.
Guo Xiang went over to have a look and got goose bumps all over. There were two fat and big green insects on the cabbage. When he saw that the hairs stood up.
Guo xiangtian is not afraid of this kind of insect.
"Don't be afraid, I'll come!" Guo'er came over and picked up a discarded bamboo for cucumber rattan in summer. He broke it in two, picked up the green insect and threw it on the ground. He stepped on it and burst the insect.
Ann looks pale. Looking at Guo'er, my little aunt is so powerful!
Guo Er laughed, "look, those butterflies are the eggs they lay on the vegetables. Small insects hatch in the eggs to eat the vegetables. They are pests!"
"Ah? Is such a beautiful butterfly a pest? " Ann looked disappointed.
