Chapter 6 Mushrooms have sprung up after the rain and are lovely, and it takes no effort to get wild boars
The East is white. Wang Yueying opened her eyes and looked beside her, the pavilion was snoring, one foot was on Xun'er's stomach, and the other hand was on her chest. My heart was hot, and I couldn't help but blush on my face. Xun'er is still very well-behaved and asleep, and her hands and feet are neatly placed. Wang Yueying sighed, personality determines the sleeping position.
After getting up lightly, Wang Yueying touched the bracelet on her hand and whispered "Go in". Originally, after coming to the space unexpectedly last night, Wang Yueying had always had a question in her heart, and wanted to ask the god of Ryoma again today, but she couldn't find him this time, so she could only leave the space unhappily.
Thinking of last night's statement that spring water can add effect to anything, he hurried to the kitchen to find a wooden barrel of water. Carrying the wooden barrel, I thought that when I used to read some time-traveling novels, everything in the space could be taken and used at any time, so I held the bracelet to the wooden barrel and thought in my heart, fill water. Sure enough, water began to flow out of the crescent mouth of the jade bracelet, and it was soon filled with a bucket of water.
Wang Yueying looked at a bucket full of water, and when she read "go in", the bucket of water disappeared, and then she read "come out", and the bucket was full. Wang Yueying thought to herself, she roughly figured out the rules for using space, and rushed to the backyard to water the vegetable patch. As soon as I opened the door, a burst of fresh and humid air greeted me, and the vegetable patch was also wet, it turned out that there was a spring rain last night, which saved Wang Yueying a lot of effort.
The freshly made porridge with shredded vegetables and meat was steaming for a while, and seeing how white the sky was, Wang Yueying came to the bedroom to wake up the children.
Xun'er saw that her mother had gotten up, so she quickly climbed out of the quilt and got dressed, lowered her head and said guiltily: "Mother, I'm sorry, I got up late." "Usually when his mother has not done his job, he has already gotten up to help light the fire, but today he asked his mother to wake him up.
"Xun'er is growing taller now, so I have to sleep more, and I don't have to get up so early in the future." Wang Yueying hugged Xun'er and kissed her, Xun'er was too sensible, so sensible that it made her heart ache. "Let's wake my sister up for breakfast."
"Baby, if you don't get up again, the sun will dry your buttocks" Wang Yueying childishly reached out to pat the little buttocks of the pavilion, and Xun'er also climbed on the bed and reached out to pull her sister's little hand. With the continuous efforts of his mother and brother, the pavilion also pouted and opened his eyes.
"Mother, people still want to sleep" The pavilion who hadn't woken up yet nestled in his mother's arms and said coquettishly.
"Then what can I do, my mother originally planned to take you to the mountains to play, but it seems that you can't go now." Wang Yueying observed the expression of the pavilion as she spoke, and sure enough, as soon as she heard that she could go to the mountain, the pavilion's eyes lit up, and she pulled Wang Yueying's clothes and hurriedly asked, "Really?" Can the pavilion and my brother also go up the mountain? ”
The mother and son moved to Hetou Village for a while, but the pavilion and Xun'er usually stayed at home obediently and rarely went out, let alone to the mountains.
Wang Yueying saw the two children looking at her expectantly, and said with a smile: "Of course it's true." Mother will take you to the mountains to see. But if your mother isn't around, you can't go to the mountains or the river by yourself, you know? ”
"Yes!" The two children excitedly agreed, and their movements were much faster than usual.
The steaming breakfast made the mother and son eat to their heart's content, and they packed up and went out full of energy.
Wang Yueying carried a basket on her back, after the last experience, this time she did not bring a woodcutter, but carried a hoe, the two children were too young, Wang Yueying did not let them take things.
The three of them still went up the mountain from the road behind the house. The purpose of Wang Yueying's trip was the bamboo forest, and she planned to dig up some spring bamboo shoots and come back. People here only know how to make tables and stools out of bamboo, but no one knows that bamboo shoots can be eaten. You must know that spring bamboo shoots are one of the "eight treasures of the mountain", stewed spring bamboo shoots in oil, pickled Du Xian, spring bamboo shoots three cups of chicken, braised spring bamboo shoots with mushrooms, and braised pork with spring bamboo shoots are rare delicacies in modern times. Deciding that she wanted to go to the bamboo forest, Wang Yueying walked slowly along the way, introducing the uses of different plants to the children as she walked. In modern times, I like to watch programs such as "A Bite of China" and "Distant Home", and I still have a certain understanding of these plants. Seeing useful medicinal herbs and wild vegetables, Wang Yueying also dug them out and threw them into the back basket.
Stopping and stopping all the way, the road that was originally half an hour away, walked for more than an hour to arrive. Wang Yueying asked the children to stay where they were and looked at the baskets, and took the hoe into the bamboo forest.
It is said that mushrooms have sprung up after the rain, and a heavy rain last night was destined to Wang Yueying's bumper harvest today. At this time, the spring bamboo shoots are not as difficult to find as winter bamboo shoots, almost all of them are sharp, and after a while, Wang Yueying dug a lot of them, threw some of them into the space, and Wang Yueying walked out of the bamboo forest with the remaining spring bamboo shoots in her arms.
"Mother, you see, we dug up a lot of vegetables." As soon as she saw Wang Yueying come out, she called out with a handful of wild vegetables. Wang Yueying walked over and took a look, it was really a local vegetable, which is what we often call camellia in modern times. Touched her head: "Awesome, my mother has just taught you to apply what you have learned." ”
"Mother, what do you mean by 'applying what you have learned'?" Xun'er is now very enthusiastic about learning.
"'Apply what you have learned' means that what you have learned can be used in your life, and you should not forget what you learn in the future, it is all useful." Wang Yueying took the opportunity to educate: "Everyone is working hard today, you see, the back basket is almost unfitted, we are ready to go home." ”
Wang Yueying led the way in front, the pavilion walked in the middle, Xun'er followed behind, and the mother and son walked back with their things on their backs. Xun'er looked left and right while walking, and the various tall plants on the mountain that he didn't know made him a little scared, but when he thought that his father told him to take care of his mother and sister before leaving, he gave himself courage in his heart, I am a man, I want to protect my mother and sister, I can't be afraid. After thinking about it, he continued to probe with a small bamboo stick, and suddenly saw a figure not far away, and when he looked closely, it was Song Hai.
In this barren mountain and wilderness, seeing a person she knew, who was still a tall man, made Xun'er breathe a sigh of relief, and the heart that was still carrying it just now was completely put down, and greeted loudly: "Uncle Song" said to Wang Yueying, who turned back when he heard the voice, "Mother, it's Uncle Song." ”
Wang Yueying looked in the direction of Xun'er's finger and saw Song Hai sitting next to a big tree, Song Hai seemed to have just seen them at this time, raised his head and smiled. Wang Yueying found that his face was pale and a little strange, and asked, "Brother Song, are you okay?" ”
"It's okay." Wang Yueying listened to his voice and was weak, and she was even more sure that he was in trouble.
When I walked over and looked, oh my God, I saw Song Hai covered in blood, sitting on the ground, and a wild boar weighing about two or three hundred catties fell beside him, which seemed to be dead. There were also two little wild boars tied under the tree, and under Xiao Hei's gaze, the two little pigs didn't dare to snort, no wonder Wang Yueying didn't hear a sound here just now.
"Brother Song, what's going on? Where did you get hurt? Song Hai was covered in blood, and Wang Yueying didn't know where he was injured, so she asked anxiously.
"It's okay" Song Hai didn't finish speaking, he glanced at Wang Yueying's expression of disbelief, and explained, "It's just a small injury, and the body is full of pig blood, I'm just a little tired, just rest." ”
Wang Yueying saw that he looked listless, and asked angrily: "Why didn't you ask us to help when you saw us coming?" He turned around and took out the kettle from the basket and handed it to him, "Drink some water." Song Hai saw Wang Yueying's angry but undisguised expression of concern, and couldn't help but feel hot in his heart, as if there was a hot air running around in his body, seeing Wang Yueying's hand holding the kettle and wanting to retract it, he hurriedly grabbed the kettle and drank several sips before stopping. It's strange to say, I was obviously tired to death just now, and now I feel full of strength after drinking a few sips of water, so I picked up the kettle and drank a few more sips.
Wang Yueying looked at him as if he hadn't drunk water, and complained: "Why don't you go out without water." After a pause, he added, "Drink slowly, and no one will rob you." ”
Song Hai scratched his head with a smile: "This water is very delicious, I feel that people are in good spirits after drinking it." ”
Wang Yueying thought to herself, that is, this is the spiritual spring water produced in the space, can it be good, put the kettle back into the back basket, and explained: "This is boiled water, it is unhealthy to drink too much raw water." ”
"That's right." Not to mention that Song Hai is such a big man, in this kind of rural place, even a woman who is particular about it drinks raw water, if others hear it, they will definitely say that Wang Yueying is blind, but in Song Hai's opinion, Wang Yueying at this moment is full of intellectual charm, "You know so much." Looking at Wang Yueying's smart eyes, Song Hai praised from the bottom of his heart.
"Uncle Song, did you hunt these all for you?" Xun'er couldn't hold back her curiosity for a long time, and when she saw that Song Hai was almost resting, she hurriedly asked.
"yes." Song Hai saw Xun'er looking at him with admiration, pointed to the two little pigs and said, "These two little pigs are for you and your sister." ”
"No, Uncle Song, you worked hard to catch this, we can't ask for it." Although Xun'er likes piglets very much, his mother taught him not to ask for other people's things casually.
"I don't want a museum." Although the pavilion didn't know what the reason was, he also expressed his stance when he saw his brother's refusal.
Song Hai didn't expect the two children to refuse his kindness. You must know that although the people in the village look down on him, some people often come to him to ask him to borrow some game to entertain guests, although they will not pay it back. He was stunned, turned his head to Wang Yueying and said, "I don't know how to raise pigs, I'll give this to you." Afraid that she would refuse, he thought about it and continued, "You make delicious dishes in the future, just give me some of them." ”
Wang Yueying glanced at him and said, "Then put it in our family, at the end of the year, one will be ours, and the other one will be returned to you." Wang Yueying thought that he should be afraid of trouble as a big man, he had space for himself, and it was not a problem to raise two pigs.
Song Hai still wanted to refuse and said no, but seeing Wang Yueying's expression of such a clapper, he could only agree.
Wang Yueying looked at him with an embarrassed expression and said, "You can help build a pigsty then, there is no place for pigs in my house." Song Hai nodded in agreement when he heard this.
"Can you go now?" Wang Yueying saw that he was almost restored, and asked softly.
"What did you say?" Song Hai thought that they would go first, but he didn't expect her to be willing to go with him, so he hurriedly stammered and agreed, "It's okay, let's go." After saying that, he stood up and wanted to carry the wild boar on the side.
Wang Yueying saw that he had recovered his strength, but it was still difficult to carry the hundred-pound wild boar down the mountain alone, so she hurriedly grabbed him and said, "Forget it, take the little pig back first, and then come back to carry the wild boar later." ”
Although Song Hai didn't know who to ask for help, he didn't refuse. I found some branches to cover the wild boar on the ground, and led the two little wild boars to walk in the direction of home with the mother and son
