Chapter 42, the brown bear and the black bear
The shopkeeper said: "It's not difficult for you to do, it's steaming, there are materials, you can make it after a few more attempts, and it's a lot to give you two taels of silver, I can add fresh food to the store, what's the matter?" Couldn't be more! But leave the dates you have thrived. ”
Mrs. Niu said with a bitter face: "No, no, I gave it to you, what do we still use to make money, you also saw it, we moved over, what do we want, at this time, we just gave land, and we can't grow food, all pointing to this to make a few dollars, so as to settle down." ”
"I'll teach you how to cook it, and I won't sell this one when I go out in the future, but I have other recipes, which are also pastries, and you can't stop selling them."
The shopkeeper smiled and nodded, Mrs. Niu was about to cry, "You're going to sell it?" What shall we do? What will you ...... in the future?"
Dong Xiaoying whispered: "We have another way, this one is sold, we have a few coins in our hands, it's good to settle down in the place, isn't it?" ”
Fang Mingyuan was polite to the shopkeeper, he couldn't ask for money, how could he ask for your silver, he would have taken advantage of it, and then he reached out to take the money, alas! No, we can't do this.
We have a long way to go, and it's hard! I didn't eat anything along the way, I almost died of water without water, and I didn't know how many days the food I brought would last.
The shopkeeper is a person who understands, come on, you don't want money, give it to you for food!
"There are some rough noodles in the inn, brown rice, I will give it to you."
The patriarch and everyone praised the shopkeeper, good man! It's really a noble person when you go out.
The shopkeeper praised the people behind his back and gave Mrs. Niu a hundred yuan, which was considered the money to buy their sour dates.
Taught the chef to make three pots, the shopkeeper is not stingy, take it out for everyone to taste, just look at these people, a village has moved out, the heart is very united, there is no one left on the road, this heart is stronger than those who have moved, and they are still depressed and reluctant.
What are you moving here for? It's not that I want to live a better life than before, look at people, work hard to make money along the way, put away a few wild sour dates, think about buying a house in a place, big livestock, and listen to it.
"We don't lose money, the cost of living in the store is not enough, and we are given two stones of grain when we turn our faces, this shopkeeper is a good person." Fang Mingyuan laughed.
Mrs. Niu looked at her son and daughter-in-law for a while, swept around other people for a while, and didn't walk down the aisle, her eyes fluttered around, she lived for half her life, and for the first time she did something wrong, she lost a hundred dollars.
Walking all the way against the mountain, there are many wild things on the mountain, Fang Mingyuan beckoned everyone to go up the mountain to hunt, pick mushrooms, let the stuffy follow to catch the snake, don't let the snake bite people.
The pheasants on the mountain let the men chase everywhere, and the old lady and the little daughter-in-law chased and intercepted them, and caused the hares to be scourged, smashed them with stones, and pounced with branches, and finally caught six hares and a dozen pheasants.
The girls are not idle when they go into the mountains, picking mushrooms, digging wild vegetables, and not letting go of anything they can eat.
On this day, the grain bag was not opened, and there was meat to eat, so there was no need to eat grain.
After sleeping in the field for one night, after only walking a few steps, everyone was noisily going up the mountain again, Fang Yue was clamoring to follow, "I followed the mountain yesterday, mother, there are really no snakes, stuffy people look at it!" I picked a lot of mushrooms, which I could sell for money, and I could stew chickens and eat them. ”
If it weren't for the mushrooms picked back by her daughter, Dong Xiaoying would have thrown them out yesterday, a basket of mushrooms, you can't eat them at first glance, like shiitake mushrooms but green, like hazelnut mushrooms but red, stewed chicken, she was afraid of poisoning.
When there was a roar and a fuss on the mountain, Dong Xiaoying felt bad, and her daughters and sons had gone up the mountain, but don't meet wild beasts.
"Patriarch, I'll go up and have a look." Dong Xiaoying said hello and was about to leave.
The patriarch shouted behind him: "Mingyuan said, you can't act alone, at least two people together, I'll look at the car, let your third uncle, the fourth uncle accompany you to go up and have a look, take a look from a distance first, and run down the mountain quickly." ”
The third cousin muttered, the guts are as big as mung beans, and the old thing that spares his life.
When the three of them went up the mountain, they saw a group of people in tattered clothes, a few trees had fallen, and a behemoth with a bleeding mouth and nose was lying on the ground.
"It's ...... Brown bear? Dong Xiaoying saw it clearly, and looked around in fright, "Chang'an, girl!" My son, my daughter? ”
Chang'an hugged the branch and shouted: "Mother, you turn around, you are fifty meters away from the big tree, look at your son and me!" ”
Fang Yue jumped and ran, "Mother, the big tree fell, and I knew there was a bear here." Mother, look at the fallen tree, there is a surprise, do you look carefully if it is lion's mane mushroom? ”
Chang'an shouted loudly: "Mother, it's lion's mane mushroom, and I also have it at three o'clock." ”
"Dad, the stuffy man is so powerful, knocking a stick on the bear's head, jumping up and jumping high, the bear can't reach him." Ming Wu saw his father, walking in the aisle like a drunk drunk, staggering.
"Oh, my land! Are you happy and lost? The fourth uncle hugged his son, who threw himself into his arms.
As soon as Fang Mingwu climbed the tree, Chang'an said that the mushroom was valuable, and the tree was hit by a bear, and he fell down and fell his head, looking like he had a concussion.
"Chang'an said that there were lion's mane mushrooms on the tree, and the dozen or so people who followed me went up the tree in a blink of an eye." Fang Mingyuan pointed to his son and said: "The bear chased the stuffy man and they came out, and the stuffy man reached out and picked up his son and hung it on the tree, and I was scared and didn't even think to hide." ”
Pointing to a group of men who asked for food, "The tree fell, Mingwu fell, and these few also jumped under the tree, and they were in a hurry to drag Mingwu, and the branches scratched their clothes."
Those few watched the stuffy man go up the tree, followed up the tree, and the stuffy man carried the big stone up the tree and smashed it on the bear's head, and these people went up the tree to remember that they didn't take anything.
That's not it, kicking down a tree branch with his foot, and falling it didn't hit the bear, but it shaved people lightly. When these people lost their money, they didn't want to die, and a few people held a big log and stuck the bear in the middle, so that the stuffy man could jump up and hit the bear's head! Oops, it scared the hell out of me. ”
Fang Mingyuan was really frightened, with so many words, he was actually not too nervous.
The crowd shouted trumpets and lifted the bear up.
Chang'an shouted from the tree: "Dad, mother! You're going to get me down!" ”
Bozi went up and took him down, and ran along the position pointed by Chang'an, listening to Chang'an say about going up the tree, Bozi didn't say a word, jumped up the tree a few times, and picked off the lion's mane mushroom.
Putting the brown bear down, a group of men looked for Dong Xiaoying to see the style of lion's mane mushroom, and went crazy to climb the tree to find mushrooms.
The patriarch was worried, "I can't put it on the car, and then I will break up our frame car!" What's the matter? Who can peel bearskin? Bear skin is a good thing, don't peel it blindly, people who sell bear skin will see that your bear skin style is not right, and it can't be sold at a high price. ”
Dong Xiaoying reminded, "Patriarch, the bear's paw is valuable, the bear's paw is the imperial meal, and the emperor eats it!" ”
The patriarch touched the bear's paws, "It's just this black, fluffy?" Can you eat it? It's worth a lot of money! Why don't we get it down and chop it off directly? ”
"Don't do that, we don't understand, I'll come back and ask later." Dong Xiaoying was really afraid that she didn't look at it, and the patriarch asked her to cut off the bear's paws, and it was rare to carry her back.
Looking around at the brown bear, Dong Xiaoying muttered in her heart, how could it be a brown bear? Shouldn't it be a black bear with a white collar around its neck? Where is this going? What kind of geographical environment is here, why don't you understand!
Chang'an said helplessly: It's not in the same world anymore, it's different from ours here, mom! Don't think about it, it's useless, you can settle down when you get to the place, you know that you will be in the middle of the house!
This trip really got a lot of lion's mane mushrooms back, and a basket of them was spiked.
Fang Mingyuan jumped to his feet and scolded: "Do you know what is in the mountains? The stuffy man didn't follow, he went into the mountains blindly, what are you still doing in a daze? Lion's mane mushroom can't be put down, hurry up, go to Leping City, don't cover it up along the way! ”
The old lady surrounded Fang Mingyuan, "I can't go, the bear luck can't go, your daughter-in-law said that the bear paw is valuable, and I don't know what it is worth, don't dare to touch it, don't break it!" ”
