Previous page Return to Catalog Next page
- The weather is still hot and dry, and those tireless cicadas sing endlessly.
After a light rain, the sesame seeds in the fields all bloomed. The small white or pink flowers looked like hanging bells, which looked very beautiful.
Several sesame plants in Liu Junhao¡¯s front yard also bloomed pink flowers at this time, attracting many bumble bees to collect honey from them.
¡°It was surprising when these sesame plants first grew under the eaves. Even he himself couldn¡¯t remember when he had sown sesame seeds in the yard.
Finally, after thinking for a long time, I remembered that in Chun Shang, he seemed to have bought a few kilograms of sesame seeds to make sesame salt. It should have been at that time that he used a dustpan to pick up the yellow tip and leaked it on the ground.
It is not easy for them to grow. You must know that these chickens and ducks are digging around in the yard every day.
Later, when the sesame seedlings were about ten centimeters long, Liu Junhao thought they were getting in the way under the eaves, so he moved them to the corner next to the flower pond and stopped caring about them. No matter how well these seedlings grow, they won't yield a pound of sesame seeds, so why should I waste my time on them?
But what he didn't expect was that the sesame seeds grew rapidly after they were moved into the flower pond. The bottom end was a bit thicker than the bamboo in Professor Zhao's courtyard, and there were several branches branching out from the top.
Looking at this momentum, I¡¯m afraid there will definitely be a lot of sesame seeds in autumn.
Liu Junhao was originally afraid that the villagers would notice something strange, but in the end he thought he was overly worried. Sesame is a crop that likes to be thin but not thick. Although this situation is rare, it is not unheard of. You can often see one or two solitary sesame plants growing in peanut or soybean fields, with their heads as tall as a person.
Zhang Qian is very interested in sesame blossoms. At the risk of being stung by a bee, she stood aside and let Liu Junhao take five or six photos of her.
The sesame flowers are blooming. She stood there smiling. It does have a bit of a "human face with peach blossoms complementing each other" flavor.
Liu Junhao looked a little moved. I was about to go up and hold her little hand for a photo. Zhang Qian screamed and jumped away. Shouting "Bumblebee"
Liu Junhao is very troubled by these things that ruin the atmosphere. It is said that they have increased again recently. It looks like there will be another group breakup in two days.
"Shall we get up and pick sesame leaves tomorrow morning?" Zhang Qian looked at the sesame seeds for a while. I remembered eating sesame leaves again.
Two days ago, Aunt Six got up early. He led Aqin to pinch sesame leaves in the ground for a long time. I made sesame leaf noodles tonight.
Zhang Qian was very disapproving at first, but after trying it, she immediately became interested.
Fresh and tender sesame leaves are dried and stir-fried with chopped green onion, chili pepper, and shredded ginger, and then thrown into the pot for serving. The sesame leaves are fragrant, the noodles are thin and smooth, and they taste really good!
"Are you sure you want to go into battle in person? How about we go to the street to buy some dried sesame leaves to taste fresh in a few days. It will save trouble." Liu Junhao looked at her with great concern. He didn't look like she was going to work in the fields. It seems that the scene of cutting wheat last time is still vivid in my mind.
Zhang Qian was so tired after cutting wheat for a day that her back ached. The remaining days she said she was helping, but in fact she helped make wheat waist in the field and stayed in the shade the rest of the time.
"Why, I can't go to the ground?" Zhang Qian blushed and looked unconvinced.
¡°No, I mean that eggs are delicious, and we don¡¯t necessarily need to know the hen that lays them.¡± Seeing his girlfriend getting angry, Liu Junhao immediately apologized.
"I just want to get to know each other today." Zhang Qian really wants to have another good time in the fields. She has also become somewhat interested in farm work these days, but of course it is just an interest. If she is forced to work hard for a long time, she will definitely complain.
"Okay, okay, I completely agree." Although Liu Junhao didn't want to move, in order to satisfy Zhang Qian's curiosity, he still raised his hands in support. It's just that I don't grow sesame seeds myself, so if I want to pinch them, I can only go to other people's plots.
This problem was solved quickly. Er Mazi¡¯s wife happened to come to buy eels. When she heard that they were worried about this matter, she immediately generously let them go and pick them in their own land. Her family has planted more than five acres of sesame seeds this year, and there are so many sesame leaves that she can eat as many as she wants.
Sesame leaves are the young leaves grown from sesame seeds. They are a vegetable often eaten by rural people in summer.
¡°Sesame leaves are enough for half a year, but if they don¡¯t get enough sun, they will suffer from famine.¡± Every mid-July, men, women, and children in the village take action, rushing to the fields to pinch sesame leaves with their bamboo baskets in their arms.
In less than a week, the sesame seeds in the field were completely bare, with only bare sesame poles and sesame stalks left on them.
Freshly pinched sesame leaves cannot be left for a long time and must be steamed in a pot immediately. After steaming, take it out into a basket, rinse and rub it, and then put it outside to dry. The whole process is quite time-consuming.
At that time, every household would have several sacks of sesame seeds.Leaves and throw away the pot in winter when there are no vegetables. I usually fry sesame leaves in the morning, make sesame leaf noodles at noon, and cool sesame leaves in the evening. In short, sesame leaves are indispensable for three meals a day.
Liu Junhao was a little nauseous when he was a child, so he was not very enthusiastic about Zhang Qian¡¯s suggestion. But he turned around and thought, he had eaten too much rabbit meat in the past few days, so it would be a good idea to change the taste.
So after breakfast the next day, he and Zhang Qian went to pinch sesame leaves holding a bamboo basket.
The sesame seeds planted in our land are a bit thick. I can¡¯t step out of the ground for fear of breaking the sesame seeds, so I can only stand on the side of the path and pinch them. However, in this half day, I also made a large embroidery basket full.
After another busy afternoon, I boiled the sesame leaves and dried them.
In the evening, Zhang Qian anxiously made a meal of sesame leaf noodles.
After not eating for such a long time, Liu Junhao really missed it. I took two chopsticks and tasted it, it was indeed delicious! It's slightly bitter, mixed with a thick and long mellow aroma, the red pepper is spicy, and the noodles are slippery, not to mention how exciting it is!
He got out of control and ate a large bowl of sesame leaf noodles with soup and water in less than five minutes, sweating on his forehead.
It rained as fast as it could. It was just a few drops of raindrops at night, but in the morning after dinner, the raindrops started to thicken.
Unlike the two little guys running around in the yard catching fish with umbrellas, Liu Junhao was moving a chair at the moment and sitting at the door looking at the heavy rain in a daze.
It is said that every time it rains, there will be fish in your yard. Crucian carp shells, meat shreds, loaches, etc. will rush upward along the current, making it impossible for anyone to catch them. Those water ducks and green ducks were making a complete fuss in the front yard, stretching their heads and pecking at the ground.
"Uncle Xiao Hao, someone is coming to the house. Pick two big flower skins for me." He was in a daze when the little kid ran over with an umbrella.
"Now, you want to eat watermelon in such a cold weather?" I don't know which tourist is so unique that he still eats watermelon in heavy rain and is not afraid of catching a cold.
"We don't want to eat it now, we have to take it away"
Since the watermelons matured at the end of June, the sales of the large flower skins in Liu Junhao¡¯s courtyard have been very good. He also has a rough idea of ??how many watermelons he has sold. He has sold more than 6,000 kilograms of watermelons so far, which means he has made more than 6,000 yuan.
Like last year, the large flower bark in the backyard is still blooming. Judging from this, there should be a lot of watermelon harvest.
People in the village who came to visit also asked about his watermelon production. Liu Junhao was afraid that the real data would be too surprising, so he doubled the data. Even so, this number makes people sigh with emotion.
"It's broken, I forgot to open the water channel eye"
As soon as we arrived at the backyard, we saw a scene of mountains covered with water. Many vegetables had been submerged and only a few leaves were still exposed in the water. Those eels and loaches were running around everywhere.
He then remembered that a few days ago, in order to prevent raccoons from getting in and stealing the melons, he blocked the two drainage holes in the backyard. Now the water in the entire yard is rushing forward. No wonder the water in the front yard is so strong.
Liu Junhao quickly rolled up his trouser legs and ran to the corner, pulling out several large bricks blocking the water channel.
After standing in the backyard for about ten minutes, watching the rain gradually subside, he felt relieved and picked two large watermelons and carried them to the front yard.
"What are you doing, what are you doing?" He had just left for a while, and why did Xiao Haoyu chase the water ducks all over the courtyard.
"Uncle Liu, look, we have picked up so many river shrimps. You can cook them for us later" Tongtong held up the small bucket for him to see like a treasure.
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? It looks like she is addicted to it. A few days ago, when Liu Junhao caught eels, he also made a large bowl of river shrimp, so he made saltwater river shrimp at noon. As a result, I didn't even take a few bites of this dish, and it was all divided between the two little guys.
¡°Don¡¯t tell me, the river shrimp here are not big, but they are delicious.
Pour shredded green onion and ginger slices into the boiling water, sprinkle with salt, then put the river shrimp in and add peppercorns and cook. After it is out of the pot, sprinkle with some coriander and eat. The taste is absolutely delicious, the taste is soaked into the shrimp meat.
"Liu Junhao, you are at home." Listening to this voice, it was Sun Yutao and Xu Dongfang coming over. They have been living in Liujiagou these days, and usually come to Liu Junhao to check information on the Internet, so they are quite familiar with it.
¡°Aren¡¯t you going up the mountain today?¡± Liu Junhao hurriedly invited the two of them to come inside and sit down.
¡°It¡¯s raining so heavily, it¡¯s impossible to go up the mountain to inspect and take a day off.¡±
I originally thought that someone came over to surf the Internet, but who knew it was justCome and chat. If you have nothing to do, just chat with them.
While we were chatting, Xiaopi ran into the house dripping wet. "Plop" the hare in his mouth and threw it in front of Liu Junhao. Then it began to tremble and all the rainwater on its body was shaken off.
This guy never forgets to go hunting on rainy days. He is so dedicated.
At noon, Sun Yutao and the two of them were naturally left to eat here. The braised hare and Liu Junhao did not take a few bites, and most of them were divided between the two brothers. He has been eating it these days, and he is really getting tired of it. Now he feels that the rabbit meat is not as delicious as the cold sesame leaves.
??????????? This sesame leaf has become a good thing after not eating it for several years. Not only does he like to eat it, but even Zhang Qian never tires of eating it.
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? out out were were the most popular food was the sesame leaf noodles.
