Chapter 207: Wild Mushroom Garden
Canghai carried the basket on his shoulder, and his free hand held Lu Shu's little hand, running happily in front of the two of them, while the iron head was naughty and jumping around on the tree like a game with the tiger head, rustling with the leaves.
Lu Shu happily looked at the playful tiger head and iron head, and said to Canghai: "Such a day is really easy and comfortable."
"Do you like it?" Canghai turned his head and asked as he looked at Lu Shu with a smile on his face.
At this time, Canghai's heart was so happy that it exploded, he had a girlfriend by his side, he had a comfortable life, and he had a long-term livelihood, constantly providing a clean source of funds, and he naturally wanted such a day to continue. After a year or two, the girlfriend around me will become a daughter-in-law, and then the child will give birth to three or four little babies, and then the two of them will just watch the children grow up day by day.
Seeing Lu Shu nodded, Canghai blurted out: "Then don't go, marry me, let's live here easily, let's hold hands, slowly savor every day, it's worth the day when we all go up in smoke!"
Lu Shu was stunned for a moment when she heard this, then turned her head to Canghai and asked, "Are you a marriage proposal?"
"If you don't think it's official, I can go to the magic capital and come back again, you say, do you want to use the lights on the building to fight your heart, or do you want to paint a screen on the big billboard in New York? or I will get a hot air balloon with your name written on it and fly in the sky of the magic capital for ten days and half a month?...... Canghai asked with a smile.
Lu Shu listened and thought for a while, then shook her head slightly: "Forget it, we are all so young, I still have dreams in my heart, and I still have a job, I can't give up all this to live here with you at present, and I am not naturally suitable for this kind of life, you let me live a few days as a vacation, and I have nothing to do all day for a month, only thinking about three meals of food and drink, I guess then I will go crazy."
Lu Shu did not look at the sea, and looked at the front with deep eyes, for Lu Shu, love is just a spice of life at present, she enjoys the intimacy between lovers, but she doesn't want to fix this thing, turn herself into a housewife, and live the rest of her life around her husband and children all day long.
Lu Shu also knew in her heart that she was not a girl who was in love, at least she had never thought about becoming anyone's wife at present, and returned to the three-foot kitchen to live such a very happy life in the eyes of others.
Lu Shu is a modern woman, self-reliant and independent, she works hard and earnestly studies step by step towards her own goals, she doesn't want to give up her goals for anyone, give up her ideals, afraid that she will regret it when she thinks about it in the future, she wants to see where her achievements are, where is the height that can be reached in life.
"It's okay, I just said casually, let's take a look again, it's really not okay You are in the magic capital, I'm here, let's get married from time to time, it's also good" Canghai smiled and said with some disobedience.
said so, but Canghai knew in her heart that a girl like Lu Shu was not the most important part of her life, work was, and the goal she had been working hard for all along!
Maybe one day she will let go of her goals and live an ordinary life with herself, but such a time will not be now, nor will there be a fixed timetable, it may be years, or more than ten years, or decades or even a lifetime.
And how long is Canghai willing to wait? Canghai himself doesn't know.
Canghai didn't want to think about whether he was willing to wait, and imagined that in the next few years, more than ten years, he would live like these days with lovers as if he didn't have lovers.
Shaking his head and throwing the thoughts out of his mind, Canghai smiled and pointed ahead: "Look, it's coming soon, a large mushroom field!"
Lu Shu didn't want to go on with such a topic anymore, a woman's sixth sense was sometimes quite wonderful, she felt that Canghai's big hand holding her palm suddenly tightened slightly, and then suddenly loosened, this small action seemed to hurt her heart all of a sudden.
At this moment, Lu Shu seemed to feel that her heart and her lover's heart were not like an iron plate, and she only felt that although the hands between the two were still clasped together, they were no longer as flawless as they were a second ago, and they could vaguely feel the ice cracks on it. Although Lu Shu knew how to make up for it, she couldn't do it.
Lu Shu also threw such a thought out of her mind and decided to leave this matter to time.
"It's the first time I've seen a wild mushroom field," Lu Shu replied with a smile.
The two couldn't help but speed up their pace, walked for about twenty meters, passed through a small forest, and arrived at the mushroom field.
"Wow!"
Not only Lu Shu, but even Canghai was shocked by what he saw, his vision was limited at night, Canghai just felt that there were many mushrooms here, but he never thought that there would be so many mushrooms.
How to say it, this place looks like a naturally formed mushroom farm, whether it is in the grass or at the roots of the trees, or on the trunks of a few dead trees, there are almost countless mushrooms growing in this small open space of about 200 or so, some of which have obviously been troubled by something, a mess, but more of them are still neat and colorful mushrooms.
Looking at a few mushrooms, the feeling is completely different from looking at a small piece of mushrooms, just like now, at this moment, both Canghai and Lu Shu seem to have a choice difficulty, and they don't know which kind of mushroom to start picking.
Lu Shu asked, "Which of these so many mushrooms can be eaten?"
Canghai raised his head and scratched his head, and said with a little weakness: "Don't pick the red ones and the blue ones, usually the brightly colored mushrooms are poisonous, let's pick the white ones first and the big pale yellow ones!"
Both the white mushrooms and the yellowish mushrooms have been plagued by wild animals, so there is no problem in eating them nine times out of ten, as for those that are colorful, or the mushrooms have spots on their heads, Canghai decided not to pick them first or pick less, so that the Tree of Life can distinguish them.
While speaking, Canghai took out a few plastic bags from his pocket, shook off one and handed it to Lu Shu: "Use this, don't mix the poisonous and non-poisonous together, and stain the non-poisonous with poison!"
"I didn't expect you to be quite thoughtful, the young man is very careful?" Lu Shu took the plastic bag and said with a smile.
The two avoided the question, and suddenly seemed to return to their previous appearance, the kind of sweet lovers.
"That's it, if you don't believe it, ask about it in these ten miles and eight villages, who doesn't say that our Canghai is a good man!" Canghai said boastfully.
Lu Shu was directly amused by Canghai: "Ten miles and eight villages, whether you can refine two villages even if you are twenty miles here is a question, who to ask?
"Don't worry about who you ask, that's what happened anyway" Canghai smiled and squatted down, put the basket on the ground, stretched out a plastic bag and began to pick earthy mushrooms.
Lu Shu set her sights on the small white mushroom at this time, the small mushroom is better looking than the big yellow mushroom, the umbrella on the top of the mushroom is like a bullet, the mushroom handle is also high, the whole mushroom looks thin and long, not like the mushroom on the top of the earthy yellow mushroom, short and fat, the whole mushroom umbrella is loose and loose, without a little spirit.
There were so many mushrooms that the two of them picked a bag after a while.
"Is it enough?" asked Lu Shu.
"Pick another bag, there are so many people, number twenty people, we can't eat a few of each of the ones we are picking now!" Canghai said.
Lu Shu asked: "Didn't you say stewed chicken, and the side dish is not the main dish, I look at it."
"Then let's pick another bag" Canghai thought about it, but in order to prevent it from being enough, he decided to pick another bag.
The two of them were about to make a move, but Lu Shu suddenly asked Canghai: "Where is the iron head?"
Canghai looked up when he heard this, and found that the iron-headed monkey was on the branch, so he said, "Isn't it on the tree?"
As soon as he wanted to turn his head to pick mushrooms, he saw that Tietou was holding a white dumpling in his hand, and when he looked closely, it was actually a lion's mane mushroom, and he immediately came to his senses.
"Iron head, come down, come down!"
Lu Shu was picking mushrooms, and when she heard Canghai shouting in her voice, she said, "What do you tell it to do, let it play by itself."
"It doesn't know where it picked the lion's mane mushroom!" Canghai said.
Lu Shu looked up at the iron head after hearing this: "Lion's mane mushroom, it's really lion's mane mushroom!"
Lu Shu also knows the lion's mane mushroom, this thing used to be a rare good thing, but now it is common on the market after the successful breeding, although the breeding is successful, but the price of wild lion's mane mushroom is still not down, because anyone knows that the wild and the farmed, both the taste and the nutritional value are a big difference.
At this time, the iron head slid down from the trunk of the tree and handed the lion's mane mushroom in his hand to Canghai's hand.
Canghai took a look and found that the hairs on the mushroom head were very neat, and the whole lion's mane mushroom was the size of an adult's fist, and it was definitely a first-class good mushroom: "Go, find out if there is anything like this, and if there is, pick it back for me."
After speaking, he said to Lu Shu: "This thing is delicious to roast meat!"
"You just think about eating" Lu Shu smiled and looked at the iron head that jumped up the tree again, and said to the sea.
"It's a blessing to be able to eat!" Canghai smiled and handed the monkey head in his hand to Lu Shu, and he reopened a bag and bent down to pick a few very brightly colored mushrooms.
Picking one of each, tying the mouth of the plastic bag, and putting it in the basket, Canghai began to pick pale yellow mushrooms again.
The two of them each picked up most of the bags, and when they were about to go back, the iron head still did not come back.
"Iron Head, Iron Head!" Cang Hai held his opponent to his lips and began to call out to Iron Head at the forest.
Listening to Canghai's call, the iron head quickly swung back with the power of the branches, but his hands were empty, and it seemed that he had not picked lion's mane mushrooms.
Canghai was not disappointed, because if the wild lion's mane mushroom was so easy to find, the price would not be so expensive.
Canghai and Lu Shu returned to the camp with the picked mushrooms, the first batch of watermelon teams had set off, and the rest of the villagers were squatting in the camp to rest, to the guys who turned over melons and lifted stones to catch crickets were very enthusiastic, scattered around the camp one by one, and they were not too hot, and continued to catch crickets.
Oh! You can't say catch, in the words of the old man Xu Sheng, they don't call catching crickets, but take them!
The mushrooms were picked back, and naturally they had to be washed, so Canghai carried the basket and came to the small trunk that grew from the tree of life and began to wash the mushrooms.
The pale yellow and white mushrooms are all non-poisonous as Cang Hai guessed, and as for the bright-colored flower mushrooms, except for a light red one that is not poisonous, all the others are poisonous.
threw away the poisonous mushrooms, and Canghai took the mushroom field into his own range, which means that in the future, wild boars and the like can't go to that field to eat mushrooms, and that mushroom field suddenly became Canghai's wild vegetable garden.
There was no mushroom matter, Canghai didn't intervene, and a few grandmothers who were idle took Shi Wei to do it together, as for the clumsy Lu Shu and Yan Li, they enjoyed Canghai's treatment and were pushed aside.
Lu Shu returned to Canghai's side and said to Canghai: "I didn't expect Shi Wei to be so good at working."
Canghai smiled casually: "If you stay for a long time, you will also work!"
Canghai didn't think too much, said casually, and heard Li Liren call himself, so he opened his mouth again and said, "I'll go over there and have a look."
Lu Shu nodded, and as soon as Canghai left, his eyes fell on Shi Wei, who was squatting by the river and washing mushrooms with a group of village grandmothers.
