Uncle's vegetable garden

On New Year's Day in 20021year, the sun shone warmly on the earth, and my whole family and my younger brother went to my uncle's house for dinner. Plus the home of my uncle's two sons, it is very lively. At noon, I ate vegetable rice, chicken, duck and goose, vegetables, spinach, radish and cabbage, all of which were picked directly in my uncle's garden. They are fresh and full of food. Let's take a big bag of vegetables home.

My uncle's house is close to ours. They are in the easternmost part of the village, next to a small river. There is a large clearing behind their newly-built villa. My uncle reclaimed it and turned it into a big vegetable garden, planted all kinds of fruits and vegetables, and raised many chickens, ducks and geese in the Woods in the east. This vegetable garden is my uncle's treasure, and it is also the vegetable supply place for our family.

My uncle has a soft spot for this vegetable field. Every morning, he goes to the vegetable field in the morning breeze, covered with morning glow, stepping on dew, or carrying a dung bucket or a portable bamboo basket. Sometimes I pick up an iron rake and sickle to turn the soil, mow the grass, fertilize, water and pick, and sometimes I spray pesticides on my back to prevent pests. The food collected every day is not only eaten by his two sons, but also given to relatives and friends. If the harvest is too concentrated, besides giving it to others, you can also dry some dried vegetables and pickle some pickles, which are very delicious. The chickens and ducks are fat and big, and each family sends one, and the raw eggs are also shared with us.

My uncle is an expert in growing vegetables. There are many kinds of vegetables, such as lettuce, leek and spinach in spring. There are eggplant, beans and cucumbers in summer; There are radishes, green onions, Chinese cabbage and so on in autumn. All year round, from spring to winter, there are fresh vegetables to eat every day. I really envy others.

My uncle said that you should have experience in growing vegetables, and the strongest vitality should be leeks and? Vegetables and leeks are perennial longevity vegetables with perennial roots. As long as you keep fertilizing and watering, you can cut it off and eat it from Qingming to the first frost. Leek is one of the cleanest and safest green foods, and it does not need pest control. ? Cabbage is also called water spinach. If there is enough fertilizer and water, it will grow vines. Cowpea, cucumber, towel gourd, etc. A shed should be built, and the shed he built is very strong. Picking cowpeas is like stacking strips on a mill. This kind of harvest pleasure can only be enjoyed by hardworking vegetable farmers. The cucumber is green, long, thick and tender, covered with white spikes, which reminds people of cactus. Pumpkin and wax gourd are as big as babies …

Every day, my uncle cultivates seedlings in the garden, loosens the soil to catch insects, studies gardening intensively and works hard. Facing the rising sun in the morning, the east is red, and I am happy to see the smoke from the kitchen at dusk. It not only improves life, saves expenses, but also exercises, bringing the relationship between relatives and friends closer and having a lot of fun.
