My hometown is located in a small mountain village in Miyun County. My family has a big yard. There are all kinds of vegetables planted in the yard, including round and purple eggplants, big red tomatoes, and green leeks. Among them, Chinese cabbage is my favorite.
I heard from my grandma that cabbage is grown in Erfu. There is a farmer's proverb called "the first radish and the second volt cabbage". After the seeds are planted, small sprouts will grow in three to five days. The little buds were very thin, tender, green, and very weak, but they did not give up and stubbornly dug out of the ground. They saw the grass, the blue sky and white clouds, and the earth that they were no longer familiar with!
In a blink of an eye, the cabbage grew leaves one by one. At this time, it is already October, and the Chinese cabbage has grown into Chinese cabbage that is ready to be harvested! This is all the result of my regular watering and fertilizing! The cabbage is very beautiful at this time. The green leaves are holding the cabbage heart, just like a little white pig sleeping in its nest! I hugged a cabbage and tried to pull it out, but I couldn't pull it out. At this time, grandma came over and said, "It's much easier to use a shovel." As she said this, she used a shovel to shovel the roots of the cabbage, and the cabbage lay down obediently. I followed my grandma's example and harvested many "trophies" easily.
The "battle" is over. I sat in the cabbage pile and took a photo with the Chinese cabbage. The handsome boy paired with the beautiful Chinese cabbage. Should it be green leaves with red flowers or red flowers with green leaves? No matter, it’s just one word anyway—beautiful!
Mom took the Chinese cabbage to the kitchen, and soon made a delicious pork ribs cabbage, not to mention the delicious taste!
I love the Chinese cabbage from my hometown!
