When Zhou Yu heard it, the joke was too big, which caused his father's displeasure, so he quickly explained. Zhou Dingguo and his family still understood their son's character, so they were not angry at all, so the old couple hurriedly helped their son tie the knot on the back of the basket.

As for the jar of wine, Zhou Yu didn't ask much, don't look at the dad holding it like a baby, but Zhou Yu guessed that it was nothing more than loose liquor with a slightly higher price, because in Zhoujia Village, one acre and three points of land, I have never heard of any losers willing to drink bottled wine.

At Zhou Yu's insistence, my parents went to the vegetable field to pick some vegetables and put them in the big back basket, because the light in the mountains was insufficient, the vegetables came down a little later, and they could eat more vegetables for a few more days.

Originally, his parents were afraid that Zhou Yu would be tired and would not let him carry so much, but in order to take his grandfather's family, which was closer than his parents, Zhou Yu righteously refused the kindness of his parents, and said that even if he climbed, he had to bring more things to his uncle's family as much as possible.

Zhou Dingguo blamed himself deeply after listening to his son's bold words, what a good child, he really shouldn't have misunderstood the child just now. But if Zhou Dingguo knew that his precious son had a space to move around, I don't know if Lu Dao would have such thoughts.

Taking a deep breath, Zhou Yu held the mountain knife in his left hand, the wine jar in his right hand, and a large basket full of backs on his back, and set off with Huahua in stride.

The road out of the village was better, just some sparse weeds and shrubs. After walking five or six miles, we began to enter the mountains. From a distance, the forest is dense and steep, and the vines are endless, and the farther away it is, the more lush and deep it is.

Zhou Yu walked slowly according to the path in his memory, and at this time, the big back basket on his back had already been made into space. Zhou Yu held a wooden stick in his left hand, patting the grass on both sides from time to time, the machete in his right hand was always ready in his hand, and Huahua was staring at the side. It's summer, and it's the season when snakes, insects, rats and ants are the most, so be careful.

The scenery in the mountains is very beautiful, the wild flowers are fragrant along the way, the pines are green and cypress, like green mountains and green pythons. From time to time, a few baby squirrels can be seen running around on the pine branches with pine towers, or a few woodpeckers meticulously pecking at the sick trunk with their pointed beaks.

The mountains in my memory are rich in products, all kinds of wild vegetables, wild fruits, wild pheasants, hares, wild boars, silly roe deer, etc., and even the Siberian tigers that are legendary outside have been here, among which Zhou Yu is most worried about the forest frog.

The forest frog is a species of frog that lives in the northern woods, and its whole body is full of treasures. In spring, summer, and autumn, they live in the mountains and trees, and in winter they hibernate under the rocks deep in the mountain streams. The meat is tender and melts in the mouth. The forest frog oil extracted from it has an amazing effect on a woman's skin, and regular application of forest frog oil will make a woman's skin tender, without wrinkles, and full of elasticity. It is a pity that in recent years, the value of wild forest frogs has become more and more well-known, so it has caused a sky-high purchase, a wild forest frog can be sold for dozens of dollars, which directly leads to a large reduction in the number of wild forest frogs in the mountains, and it is not easy to encounter now.

When Zhou Yu was a child, he often secretly took Lao Huahua and a group of younger brothers and sisters to play in the mountains. At that time, the mountains were a paradise for children, especially in autumn when they could go to the mountains to pick pine nuts, hazelnuts, wild walnuts and various wild fruits. Every time I come here, I can eat with a small belly. Even though I have to be beaten every time I go home, it's worth it, isn't it?

A small wild berry called "Mushroom Niang" (Niang/Third Tone), a specialty of the mountains, is a favorite among children, and the nearby villagers also call it Sweet Mushroom Niang. Sweet mushrooms can be divided into two types according to their color, yellow and red. The most common is the yellow mushroom Niang, which is sweet, juicy and refreshing, and is very popular with the big girls, little daughters-in-law and children in the village. Summer and autumn are its peak seasons. Therefore, from midsummer to autumn, as long as it is a slack time, there are always many women who go to the mountains to gather.

Red mushroom Niang is also more common, the ripening period is slightly later than the yellow mushroom Niang, the peel is also thicker, there is a special sweet and sour taste, it is also a kind of Chinese herbal medicine, has the effect of cough and phlegm and fire gas, the village people often use its peel to boil water to drink, can treat cough, phlegm more. There is also honey soaked in its fruit, and a little eaten every day can prevent colds, coughs, tracheitis, etc.

The roads in the mountains are not easy to walk, and many sections of the road must be passed with a machete. Walking on the rugged mountain road, from time to time one or two hares, pheasants or something from both sides, provoked Huahua to jump up and down to chase after him, Zhou Yu was afraid of the danger in the mountains, and did not dare to let Huahua continue to chase.

A man and a dog snorted and walked for a long time, feeling thirsty, Zhou Yu came to the space with a thought, looking at the full greenery and the clear and transparent pool water, Zhou Yu felt even thirstier. But at this time, I didn't see Spotted, and I don't know where the big guy was going to play, but Spotted is not better, so I can't pinch it, so I don't have to be a mediator at that time.

Stopping Huahua who wanted to jump into the water, Zhou Yu came to the pool and drank a few large sips of space water with his hand, the pool water was cool and sweet, it was really thirst-quenching, and then fed Huahua a few sips.

After drinking enough, Zhou Yu killed a big watermelon with a mountain knife and gave half of it to Huahua, and one person and one dog opened their mouths and enjoyed the delicious watermelon to the fullest.

After eating and drinking, the two guys continued to hurry, and finally arrived at the boundary of Xiaowangzhuang at eleven o'clock.

It is said that the village is actually a relatively gentle sunny slope in the mountains, and there are 100 houses in the sparse place, surrounded by some pine and birch. In front of and behind each house, a fence made of thick wooden piles half a man high, covered with vines. Outside the fence are covered with yellow, purple, and white wildflowers, and not far away a small stream from a mountain spring flows by.

My uncle's house is on the east side of the village, and there are seven tiled houses made of bluestone. It is said that there are less than 100 households in the whole Xiaowangzhuang, and the land is vast and sparsely populated, and there is no shortage of land.

The farmers near the mountains help each other to build houses, and they don't need money, just food. In addition, it doesn't take much money to build a house, the stones are made in the mountains, and the purlins used for the house beams are all cut in the mountains, and you only need to replant the saplings, but you can't cut them out and sell them, which is a crime.

After picking out two big watermelons from the space and the two that he carried from his home, Zhou Yu took out the big back basket from the space and put it on his back, and one person and one dog came to the gate of his uncle's house.

There are also two big blessing characters pasted on the door, which should be pasted during the New Year, but the color has become lighter after wind and rain. The gate is open, and the spacious yard is more than twenty meters long.

"Is my aunt at home? I'm Xiaoyu. ”

Zhou Yu stood at the door and shouted.

In the past two years, my uncle's family had several powerful hunting dogs, which were enough to fight with the green wolves in the mountains. Zhou Yu didn't think that he and Huahua were their opponents, so it was better to be on guard.

Sure enough, as soon as Zhou Yu's voice fell, the yard sounded one after another dog barking, and in an instant, two sturdy big black dogs appeared out of nowhere, baring their teeth at Zhou Yu in the yard, eyeing them fiercely.

Huahua hasn't been as good as before since she drank the space liquid, and she is very powerful. At this time, he did not show weakness, and made a few loud "Wang" sounds, and the three dogs confronted each other like this.

At this moment, the door of the hall opened, and out of it came a well-looking and neatly dressed woman of about fifty.

"Oh, it's really Xiaoyu here, don't call it, there are Huahua, hurry up and get out of the way, if you frighten my eldest nephew, the old lady will pick your skin, just at noon to relieve my nephew's hunger."
