Chapter 260 Autumn Harvest Begins 4

The Lu family's dry food is a mixed grain pancake with pickles, which is not much better than other families. They only drink water in military kettles and enamel pots, and the military kettles are filled with boiled water. This has been the case every day since the busy farming season. The food is no better than that of other families, so no one is curious about their meals anymore, even though they know that the Lu family is like this on the surface but not necessarily at home.

Who doesn't hide and eat something delicious?

Everyone is the same, no one should say anything about anyone else. Just know it, don't point it out, otherwise it would be not nice.

Feng Qingxue sat in the shade of the tree, surrounded by a group of children and Wang Jiao.

Jiang He and others have a good relationship with Guancheng Guanyu. They came to the Lu family with wild vegetable and mixed grain steamed buns made by Zhang Erya and other girls in their hands, talking and laughing, with bright smiles on their little faces.

Wang Zhengguo said that after the food is distributed, they will all have rations, and they will be distributed according to the standards of Wanglou Brigade.

The food they eat now is brought by Chen Ming, begged by themselves, and paid in advance by Wang Zhengguo on the pretext that they did a lot of farm work in the summer. In addition, Feng Qingxue privately funded them. Although they are all coarse grains, they can fill their stomachs and have the strength to work and earn work points.

In the spring and summer of this year, they earned a lot of work points just by cutting grass to feed the livestock.

Five catties of grass, one work point.

When Wang Zhengguo promised that their thatched house would be built in the fall and early winter, they would also be part of the Wanglou Brigade. They really had their own home and would live here for a long time.

"Auntie Xue, the pickles you made are so delicious! I never get tired of eating them!" Feng Qingxue canned pickles for several children to eat, because she knew that the children had no salt and could not pickle pickles. They usually ate steamed bread and drank water, so she would prepare a can of pickles to greet them these days, and Jianghe ate them very happily.

Feng Qingxue smiled, "If it tastes good, eat more. This year, I planted a lot of mustard and green vegetables in my own plot. I will boil two more pots of pickles in autumn and winter, and leave two jars for you."

"Thank you, Aunt Xue!" Several children said in unison.

Wang Jiao said, "Xiaoxue, I want some too."

Feng Qingxue's pickles are especially delicious. During this period, she took her own dry food to Feng Qingxue every day.

The same old black pickles, but Feng Qingxue's are different, making people want to eat them.

To put it bluntly, Feng Qingxue is willing to add seasonings when boiling pickles. Ginger slices, peppers, star anise, oil, salt, chili, soy sauce and other seasonings are all there, so the boiled pickles are naturally spicy and delicious.

"Okay, cousin, I'll give you a jar of old pickles when you get married!" Feng Qingxue said with a smile.

Wang Jiao spit at her, lowered her head, stretched out her chopsticks to pick up a pickle leaf and rolled it into her sweet potato pancake.

The two sisters were talking and laughing when suddenly someone came to look for Feng Qingxue in a hurry, "Lu Jiang's wife, come with me!"

"What's the matter, cousin sister-in-law!" Feng Qingxue stood up when she saw that the person who came to look for her was Jin Cuihua. She was the woman who showed her the way when she first came to look for Wang Zhengguo, and she was also Wang Zhengguo's niece-in-law.

Jin Cuihua pulled Feng Qingxue in the direction they came from, "Xiuying was peeling corn cobs in the field, and suddenly she was about to give birth. When I asked, I found out that she was busy earning work points and had been enduring for a long time. It will take a while to find a midwife. The midwife in our brigade is in the third team. Their production team's land is in the southernmost part, and our land is in the northwest, which is several miles away. It's too late to find her."
