Chapter 58: A Little Harvest

Meng Tao drilled into the bushes and used a firewood knife to dig herbs, and the others saw her from a distance and only thought she was playing, and didn't care about her, she also watched no one pay attention, and threw them into the space one by two, and then cleaned them up when she went home at night, and took them to the commune acquisition station another day to exchange for some money.

This natural forest is a place where Linshui Village and several nearby villages build houses or make furniture, and are harvested at designated points, there are many tree stumps in the forest, and several hills on the opposite side can be seen from the gaps, and they are all densely forested and lush, and there is a deep stream between several large mountains, if these trees can be cut down and transported out of the mountain, but it is immeasurable wealth, and there may not be this need at present, and after a few years, people will definitely develop this deep mountain, and open a big road from the bottom of the stream to bring in and transport the timber out. That is, just a little more detour.

I only hope that there will be no accidents during this period, forest fires are terrible, fire burns mountains, and the possibility of man-made is very rare, and it is a pity to be afraid of lightning caused by lightning.

At noon, people gnawed the nest head, took a break, and continued to cut down, even Meng Tao volunteered to participate in cutting down a few trees, not only to cut down what is to be carried today, but also to cut down more trees and shave off the branches, and the day after tomorrow can carry less water and save some effort.

At three or four o'clock in the afternoon, everyone carried a piece of wood, followed the original road down the mountain, paid attention to each other along the way, afraid of bumping into it, and shouted to each other to be careful, especially when it came to those dangerous sections, they had to wait for everyone to continue walking, several educated youths except Zhao Ming, Xu Guoliang and Jiang Xiaodong could insist on carrying the deep stream and cliffs by themselves, Sun Yutang and Qian Liang were helped by local junior buddies in turn.

Meng Tao carried it by herself, and although she was a little timid when she crossed the deep stream, she had the strength to stabilize.

Back in the village, the sun had also set, and the time was just right.

After eating, I came back from eating, boiling water and preparing to take a bath, went into the room to take a change of clothes and peeled a toffee and stuffed it in my mouth, in fact, I didn't eat enough in the Lin family, I only scooped a small half bowl of high-grain porridge to drink, there were many people, a big pot of porridge should be enough for one bowl per person, but there were few nests and meat dishes, I was afraid that it would not be enough to eat, so she didn't move.

At ten o'clock in the evening, Meng Tao and Zhao Ming came back from the literacy class, the courtyard was quiet, the educated youths were tired during the day, they were resting in the house, and Zhao Ming also went back to the dormitory to sleep.

Meng Tao didn't want to make a noise to affect other people's sleep, but she couldn't help being hungry, so she took a kerosene lamp into the kitchen, used a small stove to cook a bowl of gnocchi, took out a few slices of cabbage in the space, cut half a sausage and cooked it together, and then made some homemade chili tomato sauce, and ate a beautiful supper.

After eating, clean up the kitchen, go back to the room after washing, close the doors and windows, blow out the lights, listen to the movement outside, and flash into the sea of clouds space.

There are no four seasons in the space, and now it is full of greenery, flowers, and fruits, and it is impossible to tell whether it is spring, summer, or autumn. It's not winter anyway, because there's no snow or ice, and it's not cold. It seems that the stone platform where Meng Tao was found was surrounded by layers of green plants, and the clouds and fog occasionally dispersed in the sky, revealing a little golden sunlight to shine.

The peach blossoms of the two trees have already bloomed, and the flowering period is a little long, and the other pumpkins, cucumbers, tomatoes, peppers and Chinese cabbage have been harvested a few times, and the chrysanthemums have also been picked and opened again, and the bitter gourd and gourd seeds that were thrown down later have also grown into and climbed up, but the peach blossoms have not withered after they are in full bloom, and Meng Tao has to wonder if this is a male peach tree, and can only watch and will not bear fruit.

After many times of going up the mountain to chop firewood, the firewood has been cleared out, but the space still seems cramped, there is no way to have more things, plus a batch of fruits and vegetables will be harvested in three or five days, and they can't be eaten, so they can only be kept, and they are stacked on the edge...... It can only be said that this space is a bit sad, and I met a greedy vulgar like a hamster like Meng Tao.

Pumpkin, cucumber, tomato and chrysanthemum climb up the shelf, the pepper grows directly into a tree, the crown is on the edge of the platform, it is very easy to pick, the cabbage in the stone crevice, Meng Tao also thought of a way, use a bamboo pole to grab the fence and rope, stretch down to pull out the Chinese cabbage in the stone crevice, and then sow seeds, each stubble of vegetables relies on mist infiltration, the growth rate is relatively slow, after the second stubble, Meng Tao collected the pine needle dew, and tried to splash some dew directly, seeing the cabbage grow like a fast shot, a little afraid, mainly because the stone platform is too bumper to fit, So I didn't take the initiative to sprinkle pine needles with dew, but it also grew very fast, there were more than a dozen trees in each stubble, and each one grew more than half a meter high, and it was so pleasing that it was white and fat.

Pumpkin, cucumber and tomato pepper are the same, the quality is too beautiful, it is not easy to take it out and sell it, and the black market does not dare, think about it, you will definitely be questioned, especially in the local area, what do rural people want most? High-quality seeds, people really want to track you down, you can find them.

So these vegetables, Meng Tao can only store them first, some of them are made of kimchi or sauerkraut, tomato and chili sauce, go to the commune supply and marketing cooperatives several times, buy more than a dozen pottery jars of all sizes, and the space can not fit them, and put seven or eight pottery jars locked in the small utility room behind the hall.

Meng Tao entered the space to sort out and classify the herbs dug during the day, and there were five or six small bundles, except for Tian Qi and the lack of needles on both sides, each bundle of other herbs weighed three or four catties, which was also a small harvest.

The next day, it was the Liang family who asked for wood and thatch.

There were three members in the team who went up the mountain today, but they didn't come yesterday, saying that there was something at home.

The two girls, Yu Xiaomin and Zhou Cuimei, also had to follow the men into the mountains with Meng Tao to carry wood, Bao Shunfeng felt that the mountain road was basically open, and the women could also enter the mountain, so they let them follow and have a companion with Meng Tao.

The three girls are all students of the literacy class on weekdays, and they have a bit of a topic, squeaking all the way, and their laughter is sharp and crisp, which makes the mountains and forests lively.

Zhou Cuimei is Zhou Cuiling's cousin, she said that she had been to the mountains and forests with her father in the winter two years ago, and knew that there were wild hawthorns and wild pears in a place, one of the pear fruits was particularly delicious, after frosting, crisp and sweet, take some back and cook it sweeter, and it was soft and glutinous with a unique flavor, so the three girls looked at the bag Shunfeng and did not pay attention, slipped out of this forest, and crossed the lawn into the dense forest on the right.

Following Zhou Cuimei, she walked down the slope in the forest, and first encountered two pear trees, and sure enough, there were many egg-sized pears hanging on them, and there were really many fruits, but the trees were too tall and a little difficult to climb.

Meng Tao asked the two of them to stay away, grabbed the firewood knife and gestured, and then threw it hard against the tree, and suddenly a burst of pear rain fell, causing Yu Xiaomin and Zhou Cuimei to cheer.
