Liang Chuan washed his hands and sat down next to Yi Niang, ready to help her wrap the hinge together.

Yi Niang saw that Liang Chuan wanted to help, for fear that Liang Chuan would spoil this good ingredient, this ingredient is not cheap to buy, and she will only make a meal for a few festivals a year, let Liang Chuan spoil it, and everyone will not have to eat it at night. Yi Niang said: "Third brother, you rest, don't move, I'll come!" ”

Liang Chuan didn't think about it so much, he was afraid that Yi Niang would be tired, and he would be very tired this day, and he would have to make dumplings when he got home! Can he not help with this? Sit down and pick up the dumpling wrappers and get started. Yi Niang had things on her legs in her hands, and she couldn't do it if she wanted to untie her hand to stop Liang Chuan, so she could only watch Liang Chuan pick up the dough.

In order to show off during class activities, Liang Chuan deliberately went to online make-up classes to learn how to make dumplings. Although it is not a big success, it can be done quickly!

Making dumplings is also skillful, holding the dumpling skin in your hand, digging out a little filling with a spoon, putting the filling into the skin, folding it in half, and squeezing the thumb and index finger of both hands to the middle. Make a fold on the left and pinch it tightly, and then make a fold on the right side and pinch it tightly. Then repeat the action. Pinch to the end to leave a small hole at one end, Liang Chuan used chopsticks to insert it, because the dumplings don't look full enough, use chopsticks to add a little filling into it, the dumplings are full of fillings to be beautiful enough.

Yi Niang was worried at first, for fear that Liang Chuan would spoil the good things, but seeing that Liang Chuan did a good job, it was really not a mess, although the hands and feet were slow, but one after another, after a while, a small half plate of dumplings came out.

Watching Liang Chuan's performance, he forgot to make dumplings, Liang Chuan just wanted to show it, looking at the expression of Yi Niang, the satisfaction in his heart was 100%, what he wanted was this effect, shocked!

Yi Niang said: "Third brother, why do you still have a corner, and the bag is not bad, it's really a stake, who did you learn from?" ”

Sometimes Yi Niang even thinks about what happened to the third brother when he entered the mountain that day, and when he came back, he changed a whole person, not to mention that people have become smarter, and they can burn charcoal and make flower chickens, no, they are rich chickens, they can talk to anyone, and now they will make corners!

She even wanted to take a fall and make her brain smarter!

Liang Chuan knew that he couldn't explain it, so he could only say nonsense: "I saw it when you were packing it before, and I learned it from you, a master!" Liang Chuan explained that he didn't forget to flirt with the artist.

Yi Niang was amused by him and said, "Learn from me?" You're better than me! ”

"Of course, this is called blue out of blue and better than blue, of course, you must carry forward and do better!"

Because there wasn't much meat and flour to buy, three people barely had enough to eat. It took two moments to wrap all the dumplings. Looking at this plate of dumplings, Yi Niang was worried about how to survive this winter not long ago, when eggs were the most valuable, and there was a little millet left at home, and now she can eat meat, all this is like a dream!

"Do you want to get off the pot now?"

"Look at your monkey hurry, you can't get out of the pot now, you can't get out of the pot at night! It's eaten at night! ”

"Haha, I'm too anxious, what, Yiniang, you are busy first, I'll go see what's going on with Brother Zhao." After saying that, the smoke flashed out.

Brother Zhao stared blankly at how far the fire burned, more seriously than anything else. Liang Chuan walked to his side, but he didn't notice it much.

Liang Chuan patted the stunned Brother Zhao and said, "Brother Zhao, go, follow me to the mountains for a walk, we have to cut some wood to build a shed."

Brother Zhao said: "Do you want to go to the mountains now, third brother?" That charcoal. Don't have to look at it? The sun is about to go down. Into the mountains at this time? ”

It's really enough to toss, I went back and forth to the market and walked such a long distance, seeing that the sun was about to go down, and I had to go into the mountain, and it was not fun in the mountain at this time!

"It's okay, go early and come back early! Yi Niang's side is almost done, this stall let Yi Niang help keep an eye on it, we have more important things, now we have to burn charcoal for a long time, it's not okay to go around under God's nose every day, in case it rains one day, how to burn charcoal in the rain? You have to make a place to dry the firewood, don't you? It is imperative that we build a shed and come out first, lest God will ask us to rest. You are most familiar with the situation in the mountains, so let's go into the mountains together and find some good wood to pull back and make a shed. ”

"I want to build a shed, the wood has to be a lot of material to make it, I know where it is, let's go up the mountain!"

In winter, the mountains and rivers are a thick inky color, and there is no delicate green in spring and summer, and all you can see is a bleak scene. The height of the sun gradually decreases, the temperature gradually decreases, all kinds of animal activities are reduced, and it becomes more difficult for carnivores to forage for food, so in winter, when you go up the mountain, you must enter the mountain during the day, enter early and go out early, the sun goes down early, the temperature drops too quickly, and the sight becomes extremely poor, and you can't see your fingers for a while, and the beasts in the mountains are so hungry that their eyes glow green, and they come out to swim when night falls.

Liang Chuan and Zhaodi entered Hulu Mountain for the first time, the vegetation on the mountain was too dense, there was no need to go deep, there were many trees in Hulu Mountain that could be cut.

The two cleaned up, both carrying a basket on their backs, pinning their own axes, with a small firewood knife tied to their waists, with a black nose, and after explaining to the artist, they ran to the mountains in a mighty way.

The path up the mountain is in front of Liang Chuan's house, a sheep intestine path, which can only accommodate one person, and the third uncle often grazes cattle on this road.

There was no road in the world, but when there were more people walking, there would be a road. Although the road is rugged, all the plants on the one-person-wide road have been flattened, and many villagers in Helu also rely on this mountain to eat, and the firewood is fetched from here.

When I entered Hulu Mountain, I realized that this mountain was really big, and I couldn't see the end at a glance. The stream on the mountain flows out of the canyon, and the valley is cut deeper and deeper all year round, and the mountain is high and the water is rapid, and the dense forest has become the biggest feature of the Hulu Mountain forest.

Brother Zhao told Liang Chuan along the way about what he had seen and heard in the mountains alone and with a black nose, which mountain I had fat pheasants, which old trees had the sweetest wild fruits, where there were bird nests, where to catch mountain rabbits, Liang Chuan had this experience when he was a child, but the number of wild animals in their time was not as good as in this era, and even sparrows have become protected animals!

The area where Fengshan Township is located is hilly, with no particularly high mountains or particularly large plains, except for the lower reaches of some rivers. The altitude of Hulu Mountain is only a few hundred meters, but standing at the foot of the mountain, the mountains are stacked on top of each other, one after another, Liang Chuan and Zhao Di walked for half an hour, Zhao Di carried an axe and a firewood knife, which was also a little weighty, and his breathing had begun to be a little messy, Liang Chuan was the same as walking on flat ground, there was no burden at all, and he had to change his own self who used to stay up late and work overtime at the grassroots level every day, not to mention climbing the mountain, and there would be a small breath if he walked quickly.

The vegetation on the mountain is quite dense, and unlike the past, whether it is a tree or a grass, there are many years, the branches are thick, each tree almost has to be hugged by one person, the branches and leaves on it are dense, and the plants in the subtropics are not deciduous in winter, but the thick layer of fallen leaves accumulated on the ground faintly exudes a smell of decay. No wonder the ancients didn't like the south, there were mountains everywhere, and the mountains were full of all kinds of miasma, and if people accidentally entered this gas, they had to carry it down the mountain when they went down.

Looking back, I can't see the road at the foot of the mountain, and when I go to the mountain forest, the trees are getting thicker and thicker, and the road that was clearly visible is becoming more and more blurred, because even if it is a deep mountain, ordinary people don't have to go so deep to chop wood, and there are fewer people involved here, whether they are hunting or collecting medicine. The two of them walked a long way, and their heads became more and more cloudy, and the sun's rays were blocked by dense leaves, many of which were unique to the south such as masson pine, and there were many common trees such as oaks, eucalyptus, and cedars.

Liang Chuan took a look, every tree in the forest is quite stout, the smallest one is the size of a basin, the cedar tree is a good wood at a glance, later generations have seen it used to build a house, but I have never seen such a thick, the ratio is almost a basin and a bowl than the size, such a good forest wood, it is quite difficult to transport it down after cutting it down, and it should be good to use it to burn charcoal!

"Brother Zhao, the trees here seem to be a little old, each one is so thick, do you know where there are thinner ones around here, we can only move them when we cut them down, and it is suitable to build a shed!?"

"Is this too thick, I want to think about it, this is a mountain to the right, there is a sea of bamboo, the bamboo is not very thick, I don't know if it will work?"

"Is there bamboo on this mountain, that's great, it's light, it's tough, it's the best way to build a bamboo shed." Lead the way! ”

Two people and a dog, walking faster and faster. The humidity in the mountain is heavy, and the cold is even heavier, and all kinds of unknown flying insects hit their faces from time to time. Crossing a ridge, a green and yellow bamboo sea is presented in front of you, all over the mountains, behind you is a tree, all bamboo, green and yellow, the wind blows like a wave of waves, Liang Chuan has also seen the bamboo sea of Mo Dick, that is in the movie Ang Lee filmed Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.

"What kind of bamboo is this.。?"

"These are bamboos, which are useless, so there are so many on the mountain."

"This bamboo is a good thing, how can no one use it?"

"What can this be used for, it's not good to burn when firewood."

"Brother Zhao, you are still young, God has given us so many good things, if we don't make good use of it, but we will live in vain."

Bamboo is a good thing! Not to mention the rest, just this bamboo shoot can be eaten! Alas, how can I think of food every day! There are dumplings ready to be put into the pot at home, it's not early, you have to hurry up your hands and feet, otherwise you will worry about Yiniang again for a while!

After a while, it will be completely dark and the road down the mountain will not be visible, don't worry about the snake hibernation in winter, but wild boars and other fierce beasts are deadly, I remember that Yi Niang said that there are a lot of wild boars in this area, if you run into it, it's over!
