Lin Yunchu was surprised and delighted. While observing the depth of the stream, he was secretly thinking in his mind how to catch the fish.

Lin Changan just thought that Lin Yun was just playing around and didn't pay much attention to it. He led the way and soon arrived near the Lin family's house.

This was the place where the two of them had picked bitter melon in the morning. At this time, Lin Yunchu didn't need to say anything, because Lin Changan already knew how to pick it.

He rolled up his sleeves and grabbed the tenderest tips of the vegetables. Lin Yunchu put down his backpack with a smile and started picking them as well.

After a while, the two of them picked a large bunch. Lin Yunchu saw that it should be enough for the whole family to eat in the evening, so he stopped what he was doing.

He shouted to Lin Chang'an who was standing beside him, and put the bittercress he had just picked into the backpack. Seeing that it was a little full, he pressed it down gently. After making sure that it would not fall out, he patted the dirt on his hands.

He picked up the backpack and called out to Lin Chang'an on the other side before rushing back home.

The two of them had been out for a long time, and it was getting late. When they returned home, they saw that there was no one in the yard. Lin Yunchu guessed that the Lin family was still busy working in the fields and had not returned yet.

There was nothing else to do at home, so I poured out all the wild vegetables I picked today and started picking them in the yard.

I divided the wild rapeseed to be eaten tonight and the wild rapeseed to make sauerkraut into two piles and began to sort them.

After removing the roots and dead leaves, I saw that these wild vegetables were growing so well, strong and tender, as if you could squeeze out water from them.

Seeing that his family had not returned yet, Lin Changan did not go out to play with his friends in the village. Instead, he squatted beside Lin Yunchu, looking at her and helping her pick vegetables.

Although these tasks are tedious, they are not difficult and all the children in the village can do them.

After a while, the two of them had picked all the wild vegetables that day. Lin Yunchu found a basin of water, filled it with water, and planned to wash all the wild vegetables first.

This wild rapeseed is delicious, but it is a hassle to clean it.

Because there may be dirt hidden in the center of the leaves, you have to break off the leaves one by one and wash them carefully.

So they picked so much wild rapeseed today. The two of them washed it for a long time, and their waists were sore. Finally, they washed all the wild rapeseed clean, and then put it in a basket to drain and dry.

Thinking that his family had not returned yet, he processed the wild rapeseed first and pickled it into sauerkraut to avoid having to do this when Lin's mother came back later.

After working in the fields for half a day, he must be tired. This job is simple and Lin Yunchu can do it.

Thinking about this, I went into the kitchen, put on an apron and prepared to start working.

Seeing this, Lin Changan hurried forward and asked, "Sister, are you going to make dinner?"

On weekdays, Lin's mother usually cooks dinner at home. Today, perhaps she has not finished the work in the fields, so no one has come back.

Seeing Lin Yunchu like this, he planned to cook dinner.

Thinking of the meal Lin Yunchu made at noon today, Lin Changan liked it very much. Although it was a bit light, it tasted very good.

"Yes, we picked so many vegetables today. We can't keep this wild rapeseed. It will go bad if we keep it until tomorrow. Besides, we need to pickle it to make sauerkraut, so we can't eat it until a few days later."

When Lin Changan heard that they were going to make sauerkraut, he fried a plate of sauerkraut at noon today. He also liked it.

Suddenly, he felt happy and said to Lin Yunchu, "Then I'll help you, sister. Just tell me what you want to do."

Lin's mother has explained that elder sister Lin Yunchu is in weak health and the family should take better care of her.

Besides, he is a man, so he should protect his sister.

Lin Yunchu looked at Lin Changan's serious expression and smiled slightly, thinking that doing this housework was not a tiring job, and if she didn't let him help, she was afraid that he would be unhappy.

So she smiled and said, "Okay, then you can help me light the fire. Let's pickle the sauerkraut first, and then make dinner. Sister will make you something delicious tonight."

When Lin Changan heard Lin Yunchu say that there would be delicious food in the evening, he immediately became happy.

Without saying a word, he walked over and took the firewood beside him and started a fire.

Wild rapeseed contains oil, which makes it the best material for making sauerkraut.

Seeing that Lin Changan had successfully started a fire, Lin Yunchu poured water into the pot, covered it with a lid, and waited for the water in the pot to boil.

While waiting for the water to boil, Lin Yunchu began to cook dinner for tonight.

She had checked everything in the kitchen during the day, so she knew exactly what food was available in the house.

Thinking about my family members eating watery porridge every day, they really can’t feel full. How can they work if they are not full?

He turned to the basket of sweet potatoes in the corner, reached in and took out a few sweet potatoes, and saw that they were probably enough for several people in the family.

After washing the sweet potatoes, you don’t need to peel them. The skin of the sweet potatoes is edible, so you can eat more.

Wash and cut into thumb-sized pieces.

He turned around and went to the rice jar, grabbed a handful of coarse grains, put them into the pot and washed them clean, then poured a piece of freshly cut sweet potato into the pot.

I scooped a ladle of water and poured it in, then placed it on another stove and cooked it slowly.

Also clean the empty jar of sauerkraut that had been eaten in the morning.

After doing this, the pot of water that Lin Changan had just boiled also happened to boil. Lin Yunchu came to the yard and carried the wild rapeseed that had just been washed into the kitchen.

Put all the wild rapeseed into the pot and blanch it until it is half cooked. When it looks almost done, take the jar that has just been cleaned, pick up the blanched wild rapeseed with clean chopsticks and put it neatly into the jar.

The main purpose of doing this is to make it easier to take when eating and to use the correct amount.

After putting all the wild rapeseed into the jar, use a ladle to scoop the water used to boil the wild rapeseed into the jar, just enough to cover the wild rapeseed. Then find a heavy object to press it down, cover it with a lid and seal it.

Lin Yunchu used all his strength to move the jar of freshly made sauerkraut back to its original location.

Looking at the sealed jar, he raised his hand to wipe the sweat off his face and breathed a sigh of relief.

The sauerkraut is finally ready. Just wait a few days for it to be pickled and we will have sauerkraut to eat at home.

At this time, the pot of sweet potato porridge was already boiling, and the kitchen was filled with the sweet aroma of sweet potatoes and the fragrance of rice porridge.

"Sister, this porridge smells so good, it's even better than what I usually eat, and it has a sweet taste."

Lin Changan raised his head and sniffed the fragrant pot with an expectant look on his face, thinking that the porridge he would eat tonight would definitely be delicious.

Lin Yunchu opened the lid, took a spoon and slowly stirred the porridge in the pot to prevent it from sticking to the pot while cooking.
