"Wife, you can also put on your water shoes. ”

Liu Jingqing changed her clothes and came out, and Ye Rongrong handed her the ladies water shoes that she had bought for her the last time she went to the temple fair in the town.

"Hmm. ”

Liu Jingqing took the water shoes from Ye Rongrong's hand and put them on. Liu Jingqing also understands that there is such a thick snow outside, and it is difficult to go up the mountain without wearing water shoes.

"Put your gloves on. ”

Ye Rongrong handed Liu Jingqing's gloves to Liu Jingqing, Liu Jingqing's gloves are pink, which is particularly good-looking.

Help her woman put on the feather velvet hat, Ye Rongrong put on a raincoat, held a basket in one hand and a broom in the other, and walked out of the house with Liu Jingqing.

"It's cold, it's cold. ”

The parrot "Sakura", who was originally going to go out with Liu Jingqing, was blown by the cold wind and immediately retracted back into the house.

"Sakura, you can just take care of the house. ”

Liu Jingjing explained to "Sakura Sakura" and "Wenwen". After all, on such a cold day, if these two little guys are frozen, Liu Jingqing will feel distressed.

"Sakura Sakura, Wenwen, housekeeping, Sakura Sakura, Wenwen, housekeeping. ”

"Sakura," said as she hid in the doorway. In these years, not only people are afraid of cold, but also small animals are afraid of cold, and every year I don't know how many small animals in the mountains can't survive this cold winter and die.

But this is the power of nature, and no one can change it. Perhaps the four seasons of nature are also a cycle, if spring represents new life, then winter represents death.

"Wangwang"

"Hmph. ”

"Xiaobai" and a few little wild boars saw Ye Rongrong go out, and immediately ran over. It looks like he wants to go out with Ye Rongrong and his wife.

"Okay, you guys go up the hill with you. ”

Ye Rongrong said to these little guys with a smile. Anyway, these little guys can't stay idle at home, and they and Qinqing are not at home, so I don't know what these little guys will make the house look like. You might as well take them up the hill with you.

The graves of Ye Rongrong's parents are on the back mountain behind Ye Rongrong's house, and the mountain in the south of the village is also very large, mainly connected to the mountains of ~ Cang~ Mountain, which gives people the feeling that it is endless, and you can't see another mountain from this mountain.

Ye Rongrong's family is the back mountain, when Ye Rongrong was young. I often go to the back mountain with a large group of friends to play, dig out bird eggs, catch locusts, catch crickets, anyway, there is no place in the whole back mountain, Ye Rongrong didn't play when he was a child.

Especially in spring, Ye Rongrong's friends will go to the mountains to find mushrooms, this kind of wild mushrooms grown in nature taste particularly delicious. It is not at all comparable to the artificially grown mushrooms on the market today.

There are many mushrooms in the mountains, not all of them can be eaten, many mushrooms are poisonous, and even some are highly poisonous, as long as people eat them, they will die of food poisoning.

All the children go up to the mountain to pick mushrooms, and basically one or more older children will teach you which mushrooms to eat. Which mushrooms can not be eaten and are even poisonous.

Ye Rongrong is the most impressive in his memory. It is a kind of red mushroom, and the people in the village call it "laughing mushroom", and I heard older children say that if you eat this mushroom, people will only know how to giggle.

As for whether this is the case, Ye Rongrong doesn't know. After all, no one in the village picks this mushroom to eat, and everyone in the village knows that this mushroom cannot be eaten.

However, I heard that a long time ago, someone in the next village ate this "laughing mushroom" and ended up becoming a fool. A fool who can only giggle.

So when Ye Rongrong was a child, he was very careful when he was a mushroom, and he basically didn't look at the brightly colored mushrooms, because this kind of mushroom, eight or nine times out of ten, were poisonous mushrooms.

However, since he was in junior high school, Ye Rongrong has not gone up the mountain to pick mushrooms. It's not that Ye Rongrong didn't go up the mountain to pick mushrooms, but that the children in the village didn't go up the mountain to pick mushrooms anymore.

The main reason is that no one cuts the grass on the mountain, and the grass on the mountain is vigorous, so that people have no place to put their feet, let alone find mushrooms in the grass.

When Ye Rongrong was a child, every household in the village burned clay stoves, which required firewood, and the trees on the mountain could not be cut down for firewood, so they could only be cut for firewood.

At that time, the task of the women in the village was to cut the grass, not only the grass in the mountains of their own homes, but also the grass on the roadside and in the ravines and ravines.

Sometimes in order to cut the grass in a place, several families have to quarrel, but there is no way, the mountain is so big, every family has to burn firewood, this grass is not enough.

At that time, the roads on the mountains were particularly easy to walk, even in the mountains and forests where there were no roads, because except for the trees, the tall grass on the ground was basically cut clean, and it was easy to get down anywhere.

It's just that with the advent of gas stoves, fewer and fewer people in the village go to mow grass as firewood, especially ten years ago, basically every household in the village used gas stoves, usually cooking, cooking and cooking are used gas stoves, and the earthen stoves are basically not burned, even if they are burned, the dead wood in the mountains of their homes is enough to burn at home.

So that no one has cut the dead grass on the mountain, a few years down, the road behind the mountain is basically flooded by grass, everyone wants to go up the mountain is very difficult, every year before Qingming, many people in the village will go to the mountain to clean up the weeds on the road leading to the cemetery of their parents, otherwise it is difficult for everyone to pass.

Because these days, there are people who go to the back mountain to clean the road, and in the beginning of the road, it is quite easy to walk, except for some slippery, Liu Jingqing can barely keep up with Ye Rongrong's footsteps.

It's just that halfway up the mountain, it was covered by snow, and she couldn't see the road on the ground at all, and there were several times when Liu Jingqing almost fell, but fortunately, Ye Rongrong helped her in time.

"Wife, I'm tired. ”

Ye Rongrong looked at the panting Liu Jingqing and said. Although the weather is very cold now, Liu Jingqing's face is sweating, which is tiring all the way.

"Hmm. ”

Liu Jingqing nodded in response. Liu Jingqing didn't expect that he would be so tired to climb on this snowy day, he hadn't finished half of the way, and he was so tired that he couldn't walk.

Liu Jingqing really blames himself now, he has really been pampered for a long time, and he has no strength to climb the mountain for a while.

"Now that it's snowing so hard, there's nowhere to rest, so we can only keep walking. ”

Ye Rongrong looked around and said to Liu Jingqing a little helplessly. This year, the snow is really heavy, and many of the footprints on the way are about ten centimeters.

"Hmm. ”

Liu Jingqing gritted his teeth and responded. No matter what, Liu Jingqing has to accompany his man to kowtow to the grave of his father-in-law and mother-in-law. (To be continued.) )
