Chapter 159: This hand is still too tender

Grandma and Gu Qingming returned home with the picked vegetables.

When everyone looked at the dustpan of pumpkin leaves and a basket of pumpkin flowers, they smiled and said, "I made pumpkin leaves and pumpkin flowers at noon today."

Grandma smiled and said, "Nannan suddenly said she wanted to eat these, so I went to pick some back."

Grandma Gu and Grandpa Gu walked out of the house and saw these flowers. They asked curiously, "Mother-in-law, what kind of leaves and flowers are they? Can they be eaten?"

Grandma smiled and said, "This is pumpkin leaves and pumpkin flowers."

"Is this pumpkin leaves and pumpkin flowers?" Grandma Gu said in a little surprise, "The pumpkin leaves are so big, and the pumpkin flowers are also so big. So many, how do you do this?"

She and Grandpa Gu traveled around the world and ate these things.

However, there are still very few things to see.

What they want to see is still created by that man.

Grandma said, "Pumpkin leaves are delicious and they are cooked in many ways. They can be stir-fried, made into soup, fried eggs, or fried. These days, they will be made to you all try."

"Okay, then we'll have a good time." Grandma Gu and his wife were not polite, "Mingming, why did you suddenly slander these things?"

Grandma Gu was a little curious.

Gu Qingming smiled and said, "Didn't I buy pumpkin seeds a few days ago? I searched for this thing online and said that these things can be eaten online. I asked my grandma, and she picked them back."

Grandma Gu smiled and said, "Haha, you're just talking slander. I slandered leeks a while ago, and I almost cut all the leeks from your grandmother's house."

Gu Qingming smiled and said, "Isn't this genetic? You and my grandfather love to eat leek dumplings and leek buns, and I like to eat them too. I don't know that there are many leeks in the field, but they taste so quickly, and they can't grow quickly!"

"This is a vegetable, not a fairy grass. It grows fast while cutting."

The third sister-in-law was already holding a small stool and started to get pumpkin leaves and tender vines.

Pumpkin flowers are easier to make. Just remove the stems and stamens, leave the petals, and they are still one by one. Just wash them twice.

But pumpkin leaves and tender vines are more troublesome to make.

Remove the leaves.

There are many thorns on the pumpkin leaves. When they are fried, they will thorn the throat and make it difficult to swallow. It is also difficult to get rid of these thorns. Therefore, most families will not get these leaves to eat.

If you want to eat, eat petioles.

There are also many brittle hairs on the petiole, but these brittle hairs grow on the skin.

Tear off all the skins on the petiole, leaving tender leaves and stems.

The third sister-in-law pinched off the leaves first and then tore them off one by one.

Gu Qingming also brought a small stool to help.

When the third sister-in-law saw it, she smiled and said, "These leaves are full of thorns. Your hands are white and tender. If you prick them on your hands, it will probably be red and itchy. You might as well stop doing it."

Gu Qingming, “…”

Why do everyone think her hands can't get these things?

"I...I'll try!" Gu Qingming took a breath and said, "If I really can't do it, I won't do it!"

She didn't think she couldn't make these things.

This is just a simple job. After seeing these brittle hairs, how can you hurt your hands?

In fact, grandma and third sister-in-law were really right.

Gu Qingming really can't do these things.

Her hands are too tender.

She has been carefully maintained at home, and has never done much work. She has carefully maintained these skins, making her skin look as tender and white as a newborn baby.

As soon as her hand touched the pumpkin leaf, she felt the thorny hand, and she couldn't help but shrink.

When the third sister-in-law saw it, she put down the work in her hand and asked with great concern, "Sister, aren't you hurt?"

Gu Qingming said in confusion, "These fine hairs look so thin, they are so sharp?"

The third sister-in-law looked at her fingers that quickly turned red and said funny, "It's not that the fine hair is sharp, but that your hands are really too tender. They are even tenderer than babies! Look at our hands, haha, but they are much rougher than you, so they won't be injured. Go and wash it, it will be better. Do you feel itchy?"

"A little bit!" Gu Qingming said.

"Well, that's okay. As long as you don't touch it, wash it again and it will disappear in a while." said Sanjie.

Grandma Gu found it interesting and came to help.

Third sister-in-law smiled and said, "Grandma Gu, your hands are also white and tender, probably won't be able to pick them up."

Grandma Gu looked at her hands that were well maintained and said with a smile, "My hands are so old that they are so tender."

After saying that, he also learned from his third sister-in-law and picked up a leaf.

But, it's still a bit thorny.

After seeing this, my grandmother smiled and said, "Or why don't you choose these flowers. Just remove these stems and stamens."

"Okay!" Grandma Gu replied with a smile.

Gu Qingming said eagerly, "I'll choose these flowers too!" These are always available, so I won't be able to get rid of them.

However, the facts proved that Gu Qingming's hands were really too tender and he didn't even do this job.

The main reason is that there are fine hairs on the stems of the flower, which can prick hands.

Gu Qingming, “…”

Could it be that in the future, these hands will have to bask in the sun, tan and rougher every day to do some work?

Grandma said with a smile, "Our Nannan's hands are not those who do such work, they are those who want to do big things!"

Inheriting the Gu Group is not just a big deal.

When choosing vegetables, the three children, Shi Junxuan, Shi Jiahao and Shi Boyu were all at home, and they were almost helping.

Shi Boyu is the age when cats are tired of dogs. At the age of seven or eight, he runs out every day, climbing trees and pursuing bird nests, and going down the river to fish. He can't stop calling and ignores what he wants to do.

Today, I was a rare time at home. I saw my two younger brothers sitting on a small stool and helping with vegetables very seriously. But he also came to help, but after sitting for a while, he felt a little hesitant and couldn't sit still.

He put down the dish in his hand and said, "It's boring, I'll go out to play!"

Grandma said, "Little Monkey, go out to play, don't play in the water, don't climb trees, do you know?"

"I understand, great grandma!" Shi Boyu responded as he walked.

Grandma Gu smiled and said, "The child is at this age and is lively and active and naughty."

"Yes. Since the holiday, I have been running out every day. I have to eat at the right time and never go home. I can only shout at the door. Sometimes I haven't come back after dinner and I have to go out to find him. After finding him, either his whole body is wet or muddy. Oh, when I see this, I'm going to get angry, and I'll beat him up first! I'll be hungry again!"

"Haha, children are sometimes really funny, especially boys." Grandma Gu said, "You don't know, Mingming's father, when he was naughty, he drew all the walls of the house in watercolor."
