I'm wearing it, but I'm still suffering.

Chapter 51 I heard the river water has become less

Now all she had to do was remove the rotten and old leaves of the mustard greens and the gray-gray greens, then wash the mustard greens in water, put them in a winnowing basket and put them in the sun to dry.

After the mustard greens become soft, blanch them in boiling water. Remove them from the water immediately after they change color, drain and let them cool, then place them on a winnowing basket again and dry them in the sun.

Huihui's method is just the opposite. After washing, it is blanched directly in boiling salt water. After it is slightly softened, it is immediately taken out and drained, then placed on a dustpan and dried in the sun.

I started working early in the morning and finally finished processing two baskets of wild vegetables before dinner.

"Is Auntie ready now?"

"Yes, just wait until they are dry and then put them in bags."

"Then next time you want to eat it, do you need to soak it again?"

"Yes, it needs to be soaked for half an hour before eating. For example, if you want to make a cold dish with this ash vegetable, you need to blanch it again. If you want to stir-fry or stew it, drain the water after soaking and you can put it directly into the pot."

"It turns out there are so many details to cooking! You are amazing, auntie, you know so much." Liu Xiaoxiao sighed and praised her auntie.

"You're just sweet-talking. This is something that almost everyone in the village knows. It's nothing special." The aunt-in-law said modestly.

"No! Anyway, I feel like I'm very good, and I've learned a lot from you, including wild vegetables that even Sister Daya doesn't know!" After saying that, she puffed out her chest. Why did she suddenly feel like she was very good too?

"Well, that's because our Xiaoxiao is smart." Grandma Liu said proudly.

In fact, she has always felt that the third child is the smartest in the family and learns everything quickly. He didn't like to come back before, but he came back recently. The more she interacts with him, the more she feels that this child is smart and likable.

"Thank you grandma for the compliment!" After hearing what her grandma said, she still touched her head a little embarrassedly.

At this time, Grandpa Liu spoke up, "Boss, how were you guys doing in the fields today? It hasn't rained recently. Are the crops drying up?"

"Dad is fine. It probably rained heavily earlier, so the soil is still a little moist. My second brother and I were planning to check on the situation today. If it's not good, we'll fetch some water to spray it."

"Brother is right, and I think we can barely hold on for another half a month under the current situation. If it doesn't rain within half a month, we might really have to carry water to get wet."

"Okay, you guys can do whatever you want. If we really need to fetch water to irrigate the fields, we can all go together as a family."

"Grandpa, actually the water level in the river has been gradually decreasing recently. This morning, when San Ya, Cui Hua and I went to wash clothes, we found that the water level by the river was not as high as before. The stones we often use to wash clothes are completely exposed above the water." At this time, Daya also told what she saw by the river.

"Really? Then can we go fishing by the river?" Liu Xiaoxiao thought of the painting in the space. She didn't know if it was the right time, but she wanted to go see it.

"No, although the water is less, it is still very deep. Let's not go!" Daya objected.

"Oh, is that so?" When Liu Xiaoxiao heard that she couldn't go, an expression of disappointment immediately appeared on her face.

Grandpa Liu didn't know what was wrong, but he just couldn't bear to see his granddaughter like this, so he said, "If Xiaoxiao wants to go, you can ask your eldest brother to take you, but you can't go in the water. If you encounter danger in the water, it's no joke."

When Liu Xiaoxiao heard that she could go again, she immediately jumped up with joy and said, "I know, Grandpa, you're the best!"

Seeing her so happy, the whole family laughed.
