Chapter 39: Carrying Walnuts

Du Yuhan knew that Han Yixian liked sweets, so he put some sugar in the cake.

And Han Yixian really likes to eat hair cakes with some sweetness, which are soft and sweet, and the taste and texture are very good.

Liu Gang is not a picky eater, he eats any meal cooked by Du Yuhan is delicious, a hundred times stronger than the food he cooks.

In order to digest well, the rabbit meat is stewed very soft, and the potatoes are even softer and flavorful, and they taste similar to meat.

Han Yixian has been eating Du Yuhan's meals recently, and he is always full unconsciously, he feels that he has a tendency to gain weight recently, so he began to control his appetite, he doesn't want to be a fat man.

Sitting in a wheelchair every day consumes less energy, and if you eat too much, you will definitely gain fat.

Han Yixian asked Liu Gang to go to the dry rest house to find two dumbbells, and began to lift dumbbells in a wheelchair every day, which could consume some energy.

He also moves his legs while lying in bed. Although the calves are no longer felt, the thighs are still fine.

After Du Yuhan told him that his leg could be cured, he deliberately exercised his legs. This is also to prepare for future reconstruction.

He hoped that after Du Yuhan treated his leg, he would be able to stand up in the shortest possible time.

After lunch, Du Yuhan said, "Brother Han, my arm is completely healed, I'll give you a massage from today on." ”

Han Yi nodded first and said, "Okay, then wait until after the lunch break." You also go and take a break. If you have any strength, let Liu Gang do it. The massage technique also let Liu Gang learn, and when he learned it, let him massage. He's definitely bigger than you. ”

Du Yuhan nodded and said, "That's no problem, let him come when he learns." ”

Du Yuhan thought of the walnuts in the mountains and said: "I came across a few wild walnut trees today, and it is estimated that no one has picked them, and the walnuts that fell from the ground layer are all dry."

I opened the walnuts and they were very full and tasted good. I want Brother Liu to ship them all back with me. Walnuts are nutritious and easy to preserve, and they can be stored for a long time when dried. ”

Liu Gang heard that there were so many delicious walnuts next to him and hurriedly said, "Then let's go in the afternoon." If you don't let the head of the regiment take a lunch break, let's go now, go early and return early. ”

Du Yuhan thought for a while and said, "That's okay, let's go back quickly, we can go back first."

Han Yi said first: "You don't have to worry about me, you can massage your legs at any time, get the things home first." ”

Du Yuhan and Liu Gang set off with a wicker basket on their backs. Du Yuhan knew the road, and the two people on the road did not delay for less than an hour to arrive at the place.

Liu Gang saw the walnuts on the ground and exclaimed: "Good guy, there are really a lot, there are a lot of trees, let's knock them down." ”

Liu Gang picked up a yellow walnut on the ground, pinched it with his big hand, and the walnut opened.

He looked at the plump walnut kernels in the walnut skin and said, "This walnut skin is quite thin, and it opens when you pinch it." The walnut kernels are also quite plump. Yuhan, you're so lucky, you found so many walnuts at once. These walnuts are quite expensive if you want to buy them. Now the walnuts can be eaten as much as you like. ”

Du Yuhan said: "Let's pick up the ground first, the outer layer of green skin of the walnuts has dried, let's just peel it off." ”

Saying that, Du Yuhan took out two pairs of gloves and handed them to Liu Gang and said, "Put on the gloves, don't wear out your hands." ”

The green skin on the outside of the walnut has long been black and cracked, and many of them have fallen off by themselves, and those that have not fallen can be removed by hand.

The two of them hurried to pick up the walnuts that looked intact and had fallen into the basket first, and soon picked up two large baskets.

Liu Gang was afraid that Du Yuhan would not be able to carry a basket full of walnuts and get some into his basket, so let Du Yuhan just carry half a frame.

Although Du Yuhan has grown a little taller, he is still very small, and now he is more than 1.5 meters and less than 1.6 meters. This small body can't carry a whole basket of walnuts at all.

Du Yuhan was not reckless, so he carried half a frame.

She covered the frame with hay to prevent the walnuts from falling and to keep others from seeing the contents of the frame.

She was counting on coming here to pick walnuts in the future. If someone else finds out, it won't be her business.

The two of them went back and walked a little slowly with two baskets of walnuts on their backs, and they took two breaks before they got home.

Du Yuhan poured the walnuts on the bluestone slab in front of the house, some of these walnuts have not yet dried out, and they should be dried well.

Looking at the walnuts spread on the bluestone slab, Liu Gang smiled from ear to ear.

This walnut is a good thing, and you can't usually eat it at all. So many walnuts can be eaten casually in the future.

Du Yuhan also said that Liu Gang could take out the walnut kernels and send some home for the family to taste.

Liu Gang has not sent anything to his home since he became a soldier, except for sending allowances to his family, and now Du Yuhan asked him to send some walnut kernels to his home, which made him very happy.

Han Yixian had already taken a lunch break, and now that he has a convenient bathroom, he can solve it by himself when he goes to the toilet, and he doesn't have to have someone around to take care of him, and he is more comfortable in his own heart.

Han Yixian turned his wheelchair out of the house and watched Du Yuhan and Liu Gang spread the walnuts on the ground to dry. He didn't expect there to be so many.

Liu Gang said happily: "Commander, there are still in the mountains, tomorrow Yuhan and I will continue to carry them, carry them back, and we will eat walnuts as much as we like in the future." ”

Du Yuhan said: "This walnut is nutritious, there are many ways to eat it, you can fry it, and it is delicious to make it into salt and pepper or sugar." Making pastries, making walnut syrup, etc. are delicious.

The main thing is that it is good to preserve. I think we will also dig a walnut tree and plant it in the yard, and our walnuts will also have a provenance in the future. It's more convenient to eat. ”

Liu Gang said happily when he heard this: "Yes, tomorrow I will take a shovel and let's dig one and come back." ”

Han Yixian said, "You two just watch it." This walnut is indeed a good thing, and it is usually difficult to see, so we can eat walnuts casually with the blessing of Yuhan this time. It's not bad to dig up a walnut tree. Plant those two vines first. ”

Du Yuhan patted his head when he heard it and said, "I forgot about them." Brother Liu hurriedly dug a pit, let's plant the grapes first. ”

The three of them discussed and chose a suitable place, and Liu Gang began to dig the pit. The two vines are not small, Liu Gang dug two big pits and planted the two vines with Du Yuhan.

The vines were already very long, and a grape trellis needed to be built, so Liu Gang went out to find materials.

To erect a trellis, you need four columns, some horizontal frames, and wires or ropes for fixing.

Liu Gang asked for some wire from Director Yao of the Dry Rest Center, and then went out to look for other materials. There are many dead trees in the mountains, and it is easy to find a few suitable pillars.
