The Big Landlord

Chapter 7 Wild food is abundant

Before reaching the door of the house, I heard a burst of crying, the main room door was already open, Linglong was standing in front of the door with a small mouth, wiping the red and swollen eyes with the back of her hand, crying into tears, this little girl, it must be When he woke up and found that he was gone, he thought he had abandoned her.

"Okay, okay, don't cry anymore, it's because Brother Ben is not good, I didn't tell you in advance," Wang Ben hurriedly stepped forward, crouched beside Linglong, smiled and coaxed softly.

Seeing him, Linglong's loud crying finally stopped, and she pouted, turning into a low sob.

"Brother is going to make money, and buy delicious and nice clothes for us Xiao Linglong in the future. Do you think so?" Wang Ben wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and continued to say kindly. He is not good at coaxing children. After whispering softly, Linglong finally calmed down a little.

Taking a small bite of the bun, Linglong stared at him with wide eyes, and asked a little nervously, "Brother Ben, will you not want me in the future?"

"How could it be, I will always take you," Wang Ben touched the little head and assured him with great certainty that he still wanted to take this girl with him all the time. With her, his future farming life would be more guaranteed. In addition, he gradually had a feeling of being dependent on this little girl.

Seeing that Linglong was still unhappy, he pinched the tender little face and said with a smile, "Little Linglong, do you want to eat snacks?"

"Think!" Linglong nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.

That's easy to handle. Wang Ben finally felt relieved. In this summer in the countryside, there is food everywhere in the mountains and plains, and it is impossible to buy it. It seems that coaxing children is the most effective for foodies.

After breakfast, a new round of mung bean sprouts was sent, and there was nothing to do for the whole day, so he led Linglong to the hillside and started a foraging trip.

When he came to a mountain flat, it was overgrown with the first snack he found for Linglong - wild sweet potato.

Wild sweet potato is also known as Mandixiang. Wild sweet potato vines can be seen everywhere in the countryside and can grow anywhere. The fruit not only tastes very sweet, but also has good medicinal value. It is beneficial to rheumatism, dysentery, bronchitis, various It has a good effect on many types of diseases such as bruises and injuries.

As the saying goes, sweet potatoes are ripe in June, half in July, and rotten in July, and on September 9, sweet potatoes are rotten. This scorching summer is the season for wild sweet potatoes to ripen. You can smell the fragrant aroma that makes you drool.

Peeling off the green vine, picking off a wild sweet potato, carefully tearing off the skin on the surface, and feeding it into Linglong's small mouth, Wang Ben asked with a smile, "Is it delicious?"

"It's delicious!" Linglong's always gloomy face turned into a smile, and the sullenness in her heart disappeared without a trace.

While picking, Wang Ben put them in the plastic bag he carried with him. He was going to take them back to wash them before letting Linglong eat them. He occasionally tasted two of them. He closed his eyes and enjoyed the wonderful taste that he had not experienced for a long time. It is much more delicious than apples, pears and other fruits, and it is simply not on the same level.

He had previously thought of using the nutrients in the space to cultivate this wild sweet potato and sell it. There were occasionally people in the town who sold it, and the price was not low, but the wild field was too difficult to control. , the children who went to the hillside to find food all day, pulled Quan Pao, and the output was also very low, so it was not an ideal operation target.

"Pfft! Pfft! Wow..."

He was rummaging through the wild sweet potatoes attentively, when he suddenly heard Linglong spit hard on the ground,

A face was also rotten to the house, and he even cried again.

This girl must be gluttonous. She accidentally ate sweet potatoes from a sow. That kind of sweet potato is not edible at all, and it has a stinky smell. Wang Ben couldn't help crying and laughing. He quickly peeled off a few wild sweet potatoes and fed them. Linglong's cry was stopped, but that little face no longer had a smile, and she was terribly wronged.

After picking up a small half bag of wild sweet potatoes, Wang Ben didn't continue. This thing won't be kept for long, and it will rot in a day. Only when he wants to eat it, he will come to the slope to find it.

He came to the edge of a bunch of thorny bushes, carefully pulled over a branch, and picked a few yellow-yellow fruits from it. This was the second kind of snack he found for Linglong - prickly pears.

The taste of prickly pear is not particularly good, but its medicinal value is very high. It has the functions of strengthening the stomach, digestion, nourishing, and antidiarrheal, as well as anti-aging, anti-cancer, anti-virus, and anti-radiation effects. Many people in the village have Take it to make medicinal wine, and the various effects are doubled.

He took one carefully, wrapped it in his clothes and rubbed it to remove the thorns on the surface. After removing the front leaf, Wang Ben handed it to Linglong.

After taking a bite, Linglong frowned. The sweet and sour taste was particularly appetizing, and she ate it all at once, even swallowing the seeds inside.

"Ouch! Wow..."

Wang Ben was continuing to pick, when he heard Linglong crying again, the girl also wanted to join in the fun, but she didn't want to be stabbed.

Hey, this girl has become really hypocritical today, it's really hard to coax a child when she gets angry, Wang Ben can't help shaking his head and sighing softly.

Continuing to walk between the mountains and fields, I picked up some budgu (scientific name: Maoberry) and candy (scientific name: Jinyingzi), all of which added up to more than half a bag, and even went to other people's fields to break two secretly. After cutting the sweet sorghum stalks, they went home full of goods.

Halfway through, a group of children were vying to pick mulberries (scientific name: mulberries), each with a black mouth, and it seemed that they had eaten a lot.

Looking at the group of children who were extremely happy eating, Linglong stopped, her eyes were full of hope and curiosity, she swallowed, stretched out her pink and tender little finger, and pointed at the red and black trees on the tree. Sang Ying'er said, "Brother Benzi, I want to eat that too."

This is the virtue of a child. When he sees other people eating sauerkraut, he wants to try it. He feels that the dragon meat in his bowl is not fragrant.

"Today we won't eat it, if someone hits with pesticides, it's going to make trouble," Wang Ben hurriedly stopped, holding Linglong's little hand and hurried away, he didn't dare to let Linglong eat too many kinds of these wild ones. Things, if you eat a bad stomach, it will be troublesome, so I have to lie.

"It's making trouble!"

He really said it right. He didn't go very far when he heard a panic scream. Two of the children had fallen to the ground and were rolling their eyes. Phenomenon.

The other children immediately panicked. They couldn't control the two people on the ground. They were afraid that something would happen to them.

How to do this? Wang Ben is in trouble. He can't pick up two people at the same time. It is estimated that others will not be able to arrive on this hillside for a while.

Looking around, he rushed directly to the mountain manure pond not far away, and picked up the manure ladle on the side.

"Brother Benzi, what are you doing?" Linglong asked curiously, blinking her big eyes.

"Fill the dung!"
