Sign in to foster husband in the fugitive desert

Chapter 17



Chapter 17

Lu Changge's family has a vegetable garden, which is larger than the yard at home.

Most of the seasonal vegetables are grown in the vegetable garden.

Examples of fruit vegetables include cucumbers, eggplants, carrots, and tomatoes.

Su Qingyun and Xiaotuanzi wore straw hats and were picking fruit and vegetables, while Lu Changge was picking carrots on the other side.

Tomatoes are big and red, and they are deeply loved by Xiaotuanzi.

Wearing his Erteng brand straw hat, Xiao Tuanzi dragged a small bamboo basket and started picking tomatoes.

Picked three or four, and the small bamboo basket was full.

Xiaotuanzi took the small bamboo basket to find the big basket and poured the tomatoes into it.

After pouring, he deliberately grabbed the edge of the bamboo basket and looked inside.

Then I ran back and continued to pick, and when it was full, I dragged it over and poured it in.

"Duanzi, put it gently, don't throw it in." Su Qingyun glanced back and reminded aloud.

"Okay, Tuanzi knows!"

Xiaotuanzi was picking tomatoes, while Su Qingyun was picking cucumbers and eggplants on the other side.

Taking advantage of his wife not looking over, Erto waved the cane to help the little master pick tomatoes.

A vine goes over, and a few tomatoes are in hand.

And there is no need to move around, the vines are retracted, and the tomatoes fall into the basket.

However, before doing it, Erto carefully checked to see if anyone was passing by.

"Wow! Er Er is amazing!" Xiao Tuanzi clapped his hands excitedly.

"Tuanzi, what's the matter?" Su Qingyun turned around and asked in confusion.

The moment the lady turned her head, Erto followed the tomato and fell into the basket without moving.

"Hmm..." Xiaotuanzi faltered and said nothing.

"Are you tired?" Su Qingyun wondered.

"Not tired! Tuanzi is here to help!"

"Then tell Father Mu when you're tired."

"it is good!"

When Su Qingyun turned around and continued to work, Er Teng crawled out of the basket as if he had come alive.

"Two two..." Xiaotuanzi held the edge of the basket with both hands, and whispered, "Why were you swollen just now?"

[Because your father hasn't told your father-in-law yet, so you can't let your father-in-law know about the existence of Dateng and I, otherwise your father-in-law will be afraid...]

Erto explained.

"Oh..." Xiaotuanzi nodded, but he still didn't understand.

[Okay, let's continue picking! ]

"it is good!"

With Erto's help, the tomatoes were quickly picked.

Xiaotuanzi ran to pick eggplants again.

After Su Qingyun finished picking cucumbers, she looked back and saw that the eggplants and tomatoes had already been picked.

Seeing Xianggong picking up a basket full of carrots, he thought that he also picked the tomatoes and eggplants, so he put the doubts behind him.

Fruit and vegetable vegetables are picked quickly.

In the end, 56 cucumbers were harvested, which is not too big.

The eggplant was planted relatively late, and now it is only a small one, and it is not enough for two vegetable baskets after picking.

The carrots just matured in July, and the last harvest was [-], which were also big enough to fill a basket.

One tomato is 120, and two of them were eaten by Xiaotuanzi.

In addition, there are three bamboo baskets full of vegetables.

The edible part has been picked, tied with straw, and tied into a bundle for a meal.

In the end, 67 bundles of green vegetables were harvested.

Spices are placed in a separate basket.

After picking all the edible vegetables, Lu Changge gathered the remaining rotten and inedible leaves into a pile, and took them back to the chickens and sheep.

In short, it is not to be eaten by locusts.

After picking, Su Qingyun took Xiaotuanzi back.

Lu Changge walked back and forth several times, carrying all the vegetables he picked home.

In the end, the original green vegetable garden has now become a bare piece, with not even a leaf left.

However, these vegetables are still too little, not enough for three months.

The staple food is available, and the meat is fresh or dried.

Next, you have to prepare vegetables and fruits.

Water also starts to store.

Clothing, food, housing, and transportation, in addition to food and housing, there are also clothing and transportation.

Lu Changge originally planned that the family would leave Lijiacun after his wife gave birth to the baby and confinement.

You have to start looking for carriages and good horses now.

After doing the calculations like this, Lu Changge found that he still had a lot of things that he wasn't ready for.

Moreover, these are only what he can think of at present.

The vegetable garden is done, and the next step is the five fruit trees at home.

The yard is planted with date trees, pomegranate trees and vines.

The jujube and pomegranate trees are still in bloom, so I can't eat them.

The grape vine climbing on the courtyard wall is now occupied by big vines, and you can eat it whenever you want.

Therefore, the grapes do not need to be picked deliberately.

There are also apple trees and persimmon trees outside the gate.

Although the persimmon tree bears fruit, it will not mature until October.

In the end, only the apple tree remained.

The apple tree in their family grows and matures early, and it can be eaten around July.

So, the second day after finishing the vegetable garden, Lu Changge started picking apples again.

[System, sign in. ]

[Ding—Successfully sign in on the 41st day of fleeing from famine, and get sign-in rewards: two catties of rice, three bundles of lettuce, and one catty of mung beans.Rewards have been put into system space. 】

After breakfast, Lu Changge dried the rice first.

It can be put into the warehouse after another day of drying tomorrow.

After drying the rice, prepare tools and start picking apples.

To pick apples today, Xiaotuanzi was very excited and ran around the trunk under the apple tree.

Seeing his father climbing up the tree and disappearing, Xiaotuanzi raised his head, his eyes filled with little stars.

"Wow...! Daddy is so annoying!" Xiaotuanzi hopped on his short legs and gave Daddy a thumbs up.

This apple tree is producing fruit this year, and it is even in size, not too big or too small.

In the end, the six-year-old apple tree yielded 412 apples.

……

As time passed, there were more and more locusts outside.

Flying around in the air, kazkaz lying on the tree and gnawing leaves.

It is densely packed, which makes people get goosebumps.

There were more locusts in the farmland, and several crops were harvested late, and a lot of rice was eaten.

In some cases, when the rice was drying, a large group of locusts flew down, and they couldn't catch them all.

After the rice is dried, it can be put into the granary.

Lu Changge went into the warehouse and put the rice and flour into the storage.

There are also bacon hanging on the beams of the house, and white radish and Chinese cabbage piled up in the corner.

All that remains are unhusked rice and jars of pickled radishes and kimchi.

Before going out, Lu Changge took old clothes and stuffed the edges of the window tightly.

After going out, he locked the door, and took some old clothes and stuffed them into the gap between the threshold and the door.

Lu Changge left after making sure that the locusts had no chance to fly in.

There are more and more locusts now, and there are even locusts in the yard, flying everywhere.

Sometimes when a person walks well, a few locusts fly in front of him and bump into his face with a puff, which can scare the person half to death.

Now, neither Su Qingyun nor Xiaotuanzi dared to come out.

Stay in the house all day, the door is still closed tightly.

Xiaotuanzi didn't dare to sleep alone anymore, so he ran to his father and mother's house a few days ago.

It was getting late, Lu Changge went into the kitchen and started cooking dinner.

His daughter-in-law has been pregnant for more than four months now, and her appetite is obviously larger than before.

Lu Changge stewed the leftover half chicken at noon, and cut a carrot into it by the way.

The vegetarian dish is a single stir-fried cauliflower, and there is also a lettuce slice fried bacon.

Another half bowl of spicy diced radish was scooped up.

Now I can't even eat in the main room, because I'm afraid that a locust will fly into the bowl while I'm eating.

After cooking, Lu Changge put the food in the food box.

After washing the dishes and chopsticks, they put them into the small wooden barrel, and washed two bunches of grapes as after-dinner fruit.

After closing the wooden bucket lid, Lu Changge picked up the food box and the small wooden bucket and left the kitchen.

As soon as the door was opened, the sound of locusts buzzing and flapping their wings rang in my ears, deafening.

If you listen too much, your brain will hurt.

Lu Changge turned around and closed the kitchen door, and walked through the main room to the door.

Until Lu Changge opened the door and walked in, and closed it again, not a single locust could get close to him by half a meter.

"Daughter-in-law, Tuanzi, come over for dinner." Lu Changge greeted as he put the things on the table.

"Coming!" Xiaotuanzi climbed off the bed, put on his straw sandals and ran over.

"Daddy, are there any bugs outside?"

"Yes." Lu Changge took out the food from the food box and put it on, and replied casually.

"Ah..." Xiaotuanzi let out a disappointment, "Are there many more?"

"Correct."

"Then... when will that bug fly away?" Xiaotuanzi asked again.

"Hmm... the dumpling will fly away after it finishes its ninety-day meal."

"Ninety? How much is that?" Xiaotuanzi asked while bowing his head and counting his fingers.

"More than 26?"

It wasn't long before Xiaotuanzi learned to count, and now he can count to 26 from beginning to end.

"Yes." Lu Changge nodded.

Hearing Daddy's answer, Xiaotuanzi frowned.

At this time, Su Qingyun came over.

"Tuanzi, don't frown, or you will become a little old man when you grow up."

"Okay..." Xiaotuanzi nodded, his little face was still worried.

"What's wrong?" Su Qingyun smiled.

"Father Mu, Daddy won't go to work for a long time, do you still have meals at our house?"

"Father Namu asked your father to go out to work and buy food for the dumplings, okay?"

"Not good!" Tuanzi shook his head and refused decisively.

Then whispered: "Congchong will eat Daddy, Daddy don't go out."

"puff……"

Hearing his words, Su Qingyun couldn't help laughing.

Think your father and I are weaker than bugs?
