There are donkeys along the river, and every time Zhao Yuan sees a plant, he can tell everyone something about these plants, such as prickly pear, plantain, folded ear root, goose tobacco......

I walked along the embankment all the way in, and after the beginning of spring, the river rose a lot, and I could no longer walk in the river.

"Uncle, why don't we catch some fish in the river and raise them?" Luoluo said as she looked at the occasional fish swimming in the river.

"These fish are not big, we have to catch grass carp, carp, silver carp, etc., our rivers are all white floating, wooden shells (small fish in the small river ditch, generally only grow to a few inches long)." Zhao Yuan shook his head and said.

Because the river is basically dry for a period of time every year, there are hardly any big fish in the river.

During this time, Zhao Yuan has been looking for fish fry, but no one sells fish fry in this part of Gray Plains Town, and there are a lot of big fish in the waterhole that he saw on the way to Laoshan.

After letting the donkeys go for a long time, the bellies of the two donkeys began to bulge.

"The black tiger and the white head are basically full, let's go back." Zhao Yuan said.

"Uncle, what do you think of the black tigers, they are full?" Luoluo asked curiously, he could feel it when he was full, but the donkey couldn't speak when he was full, how did the uncle know.

"This is simple, Luoluo, you see the black tiger and the white head here, this is basically where their stomachs are located, you see if it is much more bulging than when we first brought them out." Zhao Yuan walked to the two donkeys with a smile, pointed to the stomach of the donkeys, and said.

"Really, I'll know how to release donkeys in the future." Luoluo said with a smile.

"Not only donkeys, but also cows and horses, when they are full, this position will bulge a little." Shao Meng said on the side.

"Uncle Shao Meng, Uncle Guo, you know a lot, can you help catch some crabs, there are crabs in the river." Luoluo nodded and asked again.

"Are there any crabs in the river?" Guo Du said with interest.

"Yes, Uncle said it was a mountain crab, but it was delicious." Luoluo nodded and said.

"There's a lot of water in the river now, it's hard to find, forget it, Luoluo, we'll catch it when there is less water in the river in the future." Zhao Yuan stopped Guo Du, who was about to take off his shoes and go down to the river, said.

"Alright then, let's go back." Luoluo was very obedient and said with some regret.

……

The villagers of Zhulin Village got up early in the morning and went to dig a lot of bamboo shoots in the bamboo forest. When it was close to noon, he walked towards Zhao Yuan's house with dug bamboo shoots, some finished bamboo products, as well as the Huaguoshan stele and a small stone mill that had been carved by the Huangshimason.

"I didn't say it in advance, I don't know if Zhao Yuan is at home." Huang Gufeng said to the villagers of Zhulin Village.

"It should be at home, and if you're not at home, it's in the bazaar, it's not far away." Li Zheng Huang Guzhong said.

"Also, uncle, your little stone mill is really exquisite, much better than the one I made for my family before." Huang Gufeng said to the Huang stonemason with a smile.

"This is for money, when you gave your family a stone mill, you gave the old man money." Yellowmason snorted.

"This stone mill is indeed good, but it is so small, can it grind good things?" Huang Guzhong wondered.

The small stone mill built by the Yellow Stone Mason is a little different from the previous stone mill, this small stone mill is very small, and there is no need to grind hooks at all, only one person can grind things with one of the handles on it.

"When I arrived, it didn't seem to be at home, and the doors were locked." When they came to Zhao Yuan's house, Huang Gufeng and others found that the door of Zhao Yuan's house was closed.

"What should I do?"

"Wait a while, why don't you go to the market and see if Zhao Yuan is in the market, I heard that his family just opened a shop at the end of the street?" Li Zheng Huang Guzhong thought about it and said.

"No, in this way, uncle, and the third brother, a few of you are waiting here, and we will send these things directly to the shop in Zhaoyuan Market?" Huang Gufeng said.

There are really a lot of bamboo products made in Zhulin Village these days, four baskets, six back baskets, 50 chopsticks, 14 dustpans, 20 sieves and a lot of bamboo brushes used to brush pots, and there is indeed no large mat and bamboo furniture.

"It's okay, Zhao Yuan said at the beginning, let's send these things made of bamboo directly to his shop." Li Zheng Huang Guzhong nodded and said.

"Go, go, let's wait here for a while, why isn't this kid at home, I don't know the old man is coming today." The Yellowstonemason said with a wave of his hand.

"We'll go too." When a few young people heard that they were going to the market, they also said.

"Okay, you guys go too, and help move the things." Li Zheng Huang Guzhong nodded and said.

After speaking, Huang Gufeng took a group of people to carry the bamboo products made during this time and walked towards the market.

……

Zhao Yuan's family, Shao Meng, and Guo all led two donkeys towards their homes, and Luoluo's eyes were sharp, and they saw Huang Gufeng and others who had walked far away towards the market.

"Uncle, it seems to be Grandpa Feng, they went to the market." Walking to the fork in the road, Luoluo saw Huang Gufeng and others who had already walked towards the market, carrying large and small bamboo products.

"They brought us bamboo products, probably because we weren't at home, so they sent them directly to the store." Zhao Yuan said with a smile.

Seeing that Huang Gufeng and the others had already gone away, Zhao Yuan didn't think about chasing them, anyway, he had already explained to Tao Pu, and he would deal with it.

When they returned home, they put the white head and the black tiger in the donkey shed, and walked through the vegetable field, and Zhao Yuan and his party saw the Huang Stonemason and Huang Guzhong who were sitting on the stool in front of the house.

"What are you doing, no one is here at home." Huang Stonemason saw Zhao Yuan and said dissatisfied.

"I went to release the donkey just now, uncle, third uncle, you are here." Zhao Yuan hurriedly stepped forward and said.

"Didn't you kid urge me several times, this stone tablet and the small stone mill are ready, so I will send it to you first, and the big stone mill will take a few days to get it ready." Yellowstonemason said.

"Don't worry, uncle, Xiaoying, open them quickly." Zhao Yuan said with a smile.

"Uncle, third uncle, please come in." Meng Ying opened the door and said to Huang Stonemason and Li Zheng Huang Guzhong.

"Zhao Yuan, Xiaoying, we are here to send bamboo shoots and bamboo products, you were not at home just now, they just sent the bamboo products to the shop in your market, and they only walked for a while." Li Zheng Huang Guzhong said with a smile.

"Great Ancestor, Third Grandpa, we saw Grandpa Feng and them, but they were too far away." Luoluo interjected.

"It's okay, third uncle, I've explained to the shopkeeper of the store, he will take care of it, Luoluo, quickly pour tea for the eldest ancestor and the third grandfather." Zhao Yuan washed his hands in the basin and said to the little girl.

"Boy, try this stone mill and see if it works." After drinking a bowl of tea, Huang Shimason said to Zhao Yuan.

"The stone grinding made by the uncle must be easy to use." Zhao Yuan said with a smile.

"If you want to try, you try, nonsense." The yellow stonemason said dissatisfied.

"Okay, listen to the uncle, I'll try." Zhao Yuan said with a smile.

"Great Ancestor, this stone mill is so small, much smaller than the stone mill in our Zhaojiazhuang." Luoluo said with a smile.

"Little girl, this is a small stone mill, of course it's small." Huang Stonemason said with a smile to Luoluo.

"Ancestor, I'm not a little girl anymore, I'm four years old today." Luoluo said in front of the Yellowstonemason.

"Yes, yes, it's not a little girl, it's the ancestor who is wrong." The Yellowstonemason said with a laugh.
