After lunch, Yun Yi felt a little bored at home, so he carried a bamboo basket and prepared to pick wild flowers around the small island lake at the foot of the mountain, and slowly accumulated them to make Baihua wine.
"Chen Xiaoer, don't take your sisters into the water to play, beware of your dad beating your ass if you catch a cold!" Yunyi said to Chen Xiaoer, who took the lead.
"Uncle Yi! We only watch from the sidelines, not into the water! Five-year-old Chen Xiaoya turned her head to see that it was Yunyi who spoke, and hurriedly replied, and Chen Xiaoer next to her also nodded vigorously.
"Uncle Yi, why are you carrying a bamboo basket?" Chen Xiaoer asked.
"Let's pick the flowers!" Yun Yi said with a smile.
"Are you picking flowers to make sake?" Chen Xiaoer asked.
"Yes! How did you guess that, little one? Yun Yi asked suspiciously.
"Hey, hey, hey! Last year, Lao Zu (Lao Dao Ye) let us pick it for him, of course I know! Chen Xiaoer said proudly.
"Oh! No wonder! Then stop catching fish, come with me to pick flowers! The water in the river is still very cold at this time, so don't catch a cold! Yunyi said.
"Good! Wait for me to call them along! ”
"Da Mao, Er Mao, Xiao Du don't catch fish, let's pick flowers with Uncle Yi!" Hearing Yun Yi say this, Chen Xiaoer turned around and shouted to the three hairy children who were still moving stones in the creek to block the water.
Hearing Chen Xiaoer's shout, the two hairy children in the stream dropped the stones in their hands, and climbed onto the shore and walked over to Yunyi and them.
"Uncle Yi!"
"Uncle Yi!"
"Uncle Yi!"
The three children who came to the front called Yun Yi, and Yun Yi also smiled and reached out to rub their heads.
"Let's go!"
An adult, followed by a few children, walked to the side of the island lake; Walking all the way, singing all the way, a few hairy children sang and sang "Don't pick wildflowers on the side of the road!"
In fact, the raw materials for brewing Baihua wine are not complicated, and it is not really necessary to have a hundred kinds of flowers; There are more than 20 kinds of flowers, and some of the most important flowers are more common in Hegu Village, such as wild chrysanthemums, honeysuckle, peonies, orchids, bay flowers, jasmine, gardenias, spring greetings, rhododendrons, and cockscombs, which are all relatively easy to find, and can be found around Xiaodao Lake.
And daylily, duck toe grass, asparagus, one-leaf orchid, evening primrose, Xinyi, hibiscus, bauhinia, hosta, bellflower, etc., these are a little difficult to find, you need to go to the area of Motianling behind the river valley, where it grows in patches, but ordinary people really can't go.
In essence, the Baihua wine brewed by the old man is actually a kind of medicinal wine, but it is a medicine with the flowers of medicinal materials, and these medicinal flowers play a very important role in the prevention and treatment of various common diseases and diseases, and to ensure people's health. Coupled with the unique compatibility and the secret recipe of the wine, the Baihua wine was finally brewed.
A jar of fifty catties of pot-fleucille wine, the number of various flowers needed is not much, the most honeysuckle and wild chrysanthemum are only half a catty of dried flowers, and most of the others are about one or two taels; Therefore, today, Yunyi mainly picks wild chrysanthemums and honeysuckle.
Take the children to a gentle slope on the outskirts of the island lake, where there is a large field of wild chrysanthemums, the small flowers are only the size of an adult's thumb; In the near future, most of the wild chrysanthemums are only flower bones, and they are not fully blooming; Although it does not have much floral aroma, such wild chrysanthemum flowers have the best medicinal properties, and it is also the best raw material for brewing Baihua wine.
Put the bamboo basket aside, and as Yunyi moved, the child picked it up with both hands and quickly and flexibly.
For Chen Xiaoer, this is not the first time they have come to pick such flowers, they are very skillful in pinching the lower end of the flower bones, and gently pinching the flower tendons with their fingernails, and an intact flower bone is picked.
Yunyi was not to be outdone, he bent over and got busy, but this job seemed to be more suitable for children, the branches of wild chrysanthemums on the ground were not high, and the children could just stretch out their hands when they stood and picked them, and there was no need to bend down at all; But Yun Yi's height of 1.8 meters can only keep bending over, straightening, bending again, straightening, and so on.
Don't look at Yunyi as an adult, his strength and endurance are many times stronger than the children, but the overall work efficiency really can't catch up with the children; It's just that the children are children after all, and before they picked it for twenty minutes, there were already two children who deserted, and Da Mao and Xiao Du saw the big flower butterfly that stopped on the flower branches, so they threw the ** thing aside, and quietly touched the big flower butterfly.
Chen Xiaoer and Ermao saw the movements of the two of them, and they also stopped what they were doing, staring intently at Da Mao and Xiao Du who were about to catch butterflies, and even Yun Yi was attracted by their appearance and stopped; Only Chen Xiaoya, a little girl, is still picking flowers and bones seriously.
Just as the two of them were about to approach the large-flowered butterfly, they stepped on a crisp chrysanthemum pole under their feet, and the sound of shattering suddenly startled the butterfly resting on the flower; Seeing the big-flowered butterfly fly away like this, several children sighed.
Taking advantage of this gap, Yunyi also felt a little tired, so he asked Xiaoya to stop and rest, the flight of the big flower butterfly did not stop the children, and turned around and became interested in the dragonfly resting on the flowers; Seeing the children playing carefree, Yun Yi couldn't help but feel nostalgic that time was rushing like water, and in the blink of an eye, he had changed from a child to an adult. I vaguely remember that I and Wang Tao and Li Mu also played like this back then, and there were their laughter and laughter everywhere in the entire River Valley Village.
After resting for a while, Yunyi felt a little better, and got up again to get busy with the ** big business, the children chased each other on the grass not far away, playing, and stopped from time to time to catch butterflies and dragonflies; For them, this is perhaps the most free spring, and when they reach the age of going to school in the second half of the year, they will carry their small school bags and follow their older siblings to school to start school.
The quiet little girl is still accompanying Yunyi to continue to pick wild chrysanthemums, and her serious appearance is like a little adult, this is the girl in the mountain village, they are not as solid as the boys, and the little people are diligent and sensible, which is also the unique simplicity of the people in the mountains.
One afternoon, with the help of the children, the bamboo basket brought by Yunyi was filled with wild chrysanthemum flowers and bones waiting to be released, and Yunyi was almost so tired that he couldn't even straighten his waist; After resting, I tried the weight of the entire bamboo basket again, no less than one hundred and twenty catties; When it is dried, it will look like seventy or eighty catties, so that one of the raw materials for brewing Baihua wine this year will be ready.
After washing his hands on the shore of Xiaodao Lake, Yunyi carried the bamboo basket on his back and led the children back to the mid-level platform.
