"I want to go to school with Brother Wang He, I want to take the university entrance examination, so that you can live a good life." After listening to my words, my mother and father laughed happily.

Now ducklings are not very cheap, 2 yuan a piece, 10 20 yuan, ducklings take 3 months to grow up and lay eggs, duck eggs 5 cents a piece, a duck will generally lay an egg in two days, calculate the rate of return is still OK.

Originally, I planned that my mother would finish her work in the field recently, and then pick duck eggs to hatch ducks, but it rained too much yesterday, and my mother couldn't go to the ground today, and my father couldn't ride a bicycle to work today, so my mother decided to go to see the ducks today.

Now you have to make a reservation to buy ducks, that is, to pick 10 duck eggs, after booking, the host will use these 10 duck eggs to help you hatch ducks, and the ducks will survive as much as they want.

However, because there are several ducks hatching in the village, everyone is more competitive, so the survival rate is good, my mother went to a home with the highest survival rate, my father and I waited at home, the sky was slowly clear, my father promised to take me to pick mushrooms, mushroom picking this activity, I have not done it for many years.

After a while, my mother came back, and after a month, I could go to get the ducks, and a month later it was autumn, and then it was winter, and it was very cold on our side, and the ducks were not very easy to raise, so the last 1.8 a, I didn't expect it to be cheap.

I hugged my mother happily and laughed, "Mom, don't worry, I'll take care of the ducks." "I'm in a good mood to finally take the first step on the road to change my family's circumstances.

I had breakfast with my mother and father, took the bag and the basket, and prepared to set off together to pick mushrooms.

This is a rainy day, a harvest day for rural people, now the mushrooms are very delicious, after picking and drying, to the winter guests, it is also a dish, chicken stewed mushrooms, fried mushrooms, sauce mushrooms, stewed mushrooms, fried mushrooms, my saliva is flooding.

Since there are a lot of woods now, there are a lot of mushrooms every time it rains, and everyone will make an appointment to go together, but now there is more work in the countryside, and everyone will only go to pick mushrooms the day after the rain, because there is no way to work in the fields after the rain.

Just after the rain, it was the time when there were the most mushrooms, my mother didn't want to take me there, I had to walk in the woods all the time picking mushrooms, she was afraid that I wouldn't be able to walk, but I had to go, I hadn't picked mushrooms for a long time, and I wouldn't miss this opportunity.

In the previous life, due to the increase in the price of crops later, everyone began to cut down trees and farm, and the trees slowly disappeared, and there were no mushrooms, and everyone began to artificially cultivate mushrooms, and the price remained high, I bought it a few times before, but it was not the taste of childhood at all.

Anyway, I must follow to pick mushrooms, "Mom, you just let me go, I'll pick up a lot of mushrooms, you see how good I have been lately"

My mother thought for a moment and said, "If you can't walk, I can't hold you, so I'll feed you directly to the wolves in the woods."

"It's okay, dad hug me, I won't be unable to walk." After I finished speaking, I still looked at my father, where would there be wolves in such a small woods as ours,

The father said, "Xiaoli, you just let the big girl go, if she is tired, I will hug her." ”

I saw that my mother's face was about to change, "I won't let my dad hold me, even if I'm tired, I'll walk back by myself," After saying that, I still looked at my mother with a firm face, I really worked hard to pick mushrooms

Dad also felt that since he had promised me just now, he would do what he said, so he joined the camp of persuading my mother, "Xiaoli, the eldest girl has been very good recently, since she wants to go, let her go" After listening to my father's words, I silently praised my father in my heart

Since I couldn't talk about it with my father, my mother finally agreed to let me go with me, and I went to get a big ribbon so that I wouldn't be able to pick too much and not get it back

My mother looked at me carrying a ribbon that was bigger than me, and was very puzzled, "Big girl, what are you doing with the ribbon, we are going to pick mushrooms and not peanuts"

I thought helplessly, am I stupid in my mother's eyes, of course I know that I am picking mushrooms, but I can't mess with my mother now, after all, whether I can go or not is in my mother's thoughts, so I replied seriously, "I know that I am going to pick mushrooms, but I am afraid that I will not be able to pick too much, so I will take a ribbon"

"Why do you pick so many mushrooms," in the eyes of rural people, as long as there are enough mushrooms to eat, you can't eat so much in a year, and it's useless to pick up too many mushrooms, so it's basically just enough to pick up enough to eat every year

"Mom, I think we should pick up more, you think, there are no vegetables in winter, eating mushrooms is better than eating potatoes and cabbage every day, and mushrooms can be stored for a long time when they are dried."

Mom was also a little stunned, why hadn't she thought about it so before,

I looked at my mother and seemed to listen a little, so I was ready to make persistent efforts, "Mom, you think, sun-dried mushrooms, if we can't eat them, wait until winter to sell them, sell them for money and continue to buy ducks" This is my plan, we are too cold this winter, there is no way to grow greenhouse vegetables, so it is generally potatoes and cabbage, and you can eat a few meals of meat at home with good conditions, so these mushrooms will definitely be sold in winter, but we don't have this awareness yet.

My mother figured it out a little and said, "Even if you can sell it in the future, then you pick so many mushrooms, how can you get them back?"

"Mom, don't we have a dad, let dad ride the bicycle, and let dad bring it back when he's done"

"Don't rely on your dad for everything, even if your dad takes it, if we don't dry it if we pick too much, it will all be broken,"

"After picking so much, there will always be a way, otherwise these mushrooms will also be broken in the woods" Forgive me for not having a sense of sustainable development, but as long as there are forests, there will definitely be mushrooms.

My dad listened to me chatting with my mom and began to laugh, "Our family finally has a business guy who knows how to do business, and he knows how to sell dried mushrooms for money, which is a good idea, and your mother and I didn't think of it before."

Mom expressed helplessness at Dad's behavior, "You just get used to her, and you believe her, who spends money to buy it, it's all in the woods"

"Why doesn't anyone buy them, where are the mushrooms in the winter, and there will definitely be people who buy them then," I said to my mother

As soon as my mother wanted to continue to hit me, my father said, "Dad believes in you, let's pick more today, and we will sell it."

We walked for a long time, although there are a lot of mushrooms now, but we came out late, there are already many people picking mushrooms in the woods, and my father took me and my mother to the woods a little farther away by bicycle.

Dad's cycling skills, is still very good, sitting in front of me, sitting in the back of my mother, and very stable, after a while to a very large woods, in my memory of my previous life, mushroom picking has not gone so far, sure enough, there is a means of transportation is good, Dad put the car next to the tree.

I had already run into the woods, and the ground was full of big mushrooms, including grass mushrooms, red fungus, white mushrooms, and poplar mushrooms, and I felt that my mood was about to fly, and I took my little basket and picked it

"Big girl, don't go too far, it's full of bags sent to your father," my mother hurriedly shouted as I watched me walk away

"Okay, Mom, don't worry." I picked a lot of mushrooms, and the more I picked them, the more excited I became, and I felt that my body was full of energy.

"Big girl is gone, let's go back for lunch, and come back in the afternoon." My dad came to look for me, and the bags we had brought were full.

"Dad, I'll pick for a while, you and Mom go back to eat, I'm not hungry, come back to me after you finish eating." My interest in mushroom picking hasn't gone away, and looking at so many mushrooms, it's all money, how can I go back?

"This kid, how to pick mushrooms is still stunned, I don't even eat food, let's go, we can't eat so much, it seems that there is still rain in the past two days, and the mushrooms can't dry out, they will all be broken, your mother is urging us, hurry up." My dad persuaded me

"Dad, no, I know how to dry mushrooms, last time Wang He told me, he said that his grandmother did that, and he heard from others that there are still people selling dried mushrooms in the market, we also get more dried mushrooms, wait until winter, take them to the town to sell, I want to make more money, buy meat to eat." I looked at my dad and said, "It's just a little mushroom, how can it be enough, I have to let my dad join my camp so that mom will come in."

My mother also heard it, what I said, I was going to persuade me to go back, but I heard what I just said, if selling mushrooms is what Wang He said, it should be feasible, and the child will not lie, as for the way to dry the mushrooms, Grandma Zhang is a person who has seen the world, and it is not strange to know this method, and Wang He's child is also a child who relies on the bunk, but when I heard my last sentence, I felt a little more sad, the family is so difficult, or the child is suffering.

Dad and Mom thought of a piece, "Xiaoli, I'll ride back with the eldest girl first, see if the mushrooms can be dried, and then cook some food, and bring them to you later, if you can dry the mushrooms, even if you can't sell them in the future, you can keep them for the winter." Dad said to Mom

Dad took me back first, Mom continued to pick mushrooms, in fact, the method of drying mushrooms is also very simple, use a large pot, burn the fire below, and get the moisture in the mushrooms, it becomes dried mushrooms, Dad has a hot meal, I am responsible for washing the mushrooms,

After lunch, my dad added firewood to the cauldron, and after adding firewood, I went to deliver food to my mother, and I was responsible for steaming the mushrooms at home.

I picked a lot of mushrooms today, and when my dad came back, it was already dark, and the mushrooms had been processed for more than half of them, and my mother looked at me to get the mushrooms, and found that the mushrooms were not only dry, but also in good condition, unlike the mushrooms that were sunburned before, they were all black.

"Big girl, go take a break, I'll get it with your mother." My dad looked at me and wanted me to take a break

I was really tired today, after all, this body was only 4 years old, so I nodded and agreed, and when I woke up, it was already the next morning, and when I opened my eyes, I found that my mother was still at home, and my father had already gone to work.

"Big girl, you finally woke up, I woke you up to eat yesterday, you didn't eat, you're hungry, come and eat something."

"Mom, why didn't you go to the ground, have the mushrooms been processed" I was so tired yesterday that I fell asleep directly from the bed.

"It's still a little muddy outside today, so I didn't go, the mushrooms are all ready, I'm going to pick a little more later, you take a rest at home, breakfast is in the kitchen, you go to eat a bite later, Mom went out first"
