3. Harvest in the mountains

After eating, Su Rui left Su Wan at home to watch the little six Su Chennan, and took the other younger siblings up the mountain to collect firewood. In the ancient winter, there were people who froze to death in the original memory, and Su Rui decided to save enough firewood for the winter.

Don't look at it yet, it's not autumn yet, but the Su family's sisters and brothers have little strength, and they can't pick up firewood for a day and burn it for half a month like other villagers, they can only accumulate it over time.

Sujia Village is close to the mountains in the north, and when there were no natural disasters in previous years, the villagers caught pheasants, rabbits, and occasionally wild boars from time to time.

Passing by the two waterfalls on the mountain now, the small one has dried up, and the big water flow is also much smaller, if it doesn't rain, the villagers will have no water to drink for two months at most

Today, Su Rui plans to go a little farther to see if there are any wild things that can be caught to make up for the younger siblings at home. Xiao Liu will be one year old soon, and he looks no longer than a modern half-month-old child, and he can't climb yet, let alone speak.

Thinking about my colleague's eight-month-old child, he will already crawl all over the ground.

It is still a lack of nutrients, and it is necessary to supplement more protein.

Suddenly heard a rustling sound, startled Su Rui's hairs, but don't be a snake, in modern times, Su Rui is most afraid of mollusks.

"Big brother, do you think this is the sound of a snake?"

"Sister, it's not a snake, it's a pheasant hugging the nest." Su Chenrui picked up the grass and saw a pheasant looking at him in a panic.

"Oh, the pheasant is good, catch it and stew it for you to drink." As long as it's not a snake, Su Rui is very bold.

Take a step forward and grab the pheasant. Seeing that there were more than a dozen wild eggs under the pheasant, I thought that I would see that the pheasants had lost weight like this, and it was estimated that the incubation time was not short, so I picked up the extra coat, spread it on the ground, and carefully placed the wild eggs on it.

The pheasant was tied up with a rope woven from weeds and put it into the back basket of the third sister Su Qiao.

The wild egg was handed over to Su Ying, who was a calm and impatient little girl.

"Third sister, you carry the pheasant on your back, don't fall. When you go back, you will kill the pheasant at the waterfall, and the eldest sister will give you a pimple under the chicken soup at night. ”

A few little ones were very happy.

If you go backwards, you won't have the luck you started with, although you have encountered a rabbit, and it is useless to catch it.

When she was depressed, Su Rui found a plant with red fruits and five leaves in a shady place.

Running over excitedly and shouting "mallet" loudly

Su Rui was in the team building of Hyundai Company and visited the ginseng planting base once. If I'm not mistaken, this one must be ginseng, or a more valuable wild ginseng.

I remember that the original tour guide said that when you see wild ginseng, you must shout the mallet loudly, the louder the better, the old man said that this is to tell the wild ginseng, you found him, let him not run. And it's best to tie a red rope to the wild ginseng, otherwise the spirit of the ginseng doll may run away.

Su Rui didn't have a red rope on her body, and when she saw that Su Qiao had one tied to her head, she took it off and tied it to the root of the wild ginseng.

"Third sister, eldest sister will go to the county next time to buy you a beautiful velvet ribbon"

"Sister, what are you doing here?"

Su Ying looked at the eldest sister, knelt in front of the plant, and gently removed the fallen leaves around her

"This is wild ginseng, which can sustain life, and it is particularly valuable." Su Rui replied cautiously.

Su Chenrui learned words from his father, and his father often told them that someone in the mountain had dug up wild ginseng, which was very precious! Wealthy businessmen who have money in other places are willing to buy.

"Second sister, eldest brother, younger sister. We're going to get rich! Big sister can make you live a good life! ”

Su Rui was very excited, she had been thinking before, it was okay to grow food and eat it just by relying on space, if you sold it, it was a disaster year now, there were so many refugees on the road, and so much food was taken out and walked on the road, it was not a bright fat sheep.

Gently ploughing the soil, the wild ginseng has revealed its white and fat body, there is no special tool, Su Rui took the wooden stick soil to remove the sand little by little, and carefully found each ginseng whisker.

Two hours passed, and finally dug out the entire wild ginseng, looking at the size, Su Rui felt that even if there were not a hundred years, there were eighty years.

Su Rui took another turn around the neighborhood, and it is said that there are always several small ones growing near a large wild ginseng.

Sure enough, there were two smaller ones less than a hundred meters away.

Su Rui asked the second sister to find some wet grass with roots. He quickly dug out the remaining two small wild ginseng. With the broken roots, they were all collected into the space.

"Sister, we've dug it back. What's the use of asking for this? Su Chenrui looked at the eldest sister strangely.

"Awesome, take wet grass roots and wrap wild ginseng to avoid water loss." Su Rui wrapped the wild ginseng carefully.

"Okay, today is really a full harvest, there are pheasants to eat, and I also dug up wild ginseng."

The Su family sisters and brothers happily walked towards the waterfall.

Su Rui found a relatively sharp stone, cut off the pheasant's head, and buried the internal organs except for the heart and liver.

The younger siblings looked for fallen branches nearby.

"I don't know how Wan'er and Chen Nan are at home." Su Chenrui carried the firewood on his back and walked carefully down the mountain.

"Sister Wan'er has always been well-behaved, and she will definitely wait for us at home honestly." Su Qiao whispered...

As soon as she entered the courtyard gate, she heard a baby crying, Su Wan heard the sound, and hurriedly greeted her from the main house, "Eldest sister, you are back, my brother is hungry and has been crying." Wan'er is stupid and can't cook."

touched Su Wan's aggrieved little face.

"Our Wan'er is already very good, and my sister believes that Wan'er will definitely cook good dishes when she grows up."

Modern colleagues often give them these unmarried single dogs, teach them the experience of raising babies, and children must praise her for their confidence.

Without Su Rui's explanation, Su Ying took the initiative to cook corn paste for Xiaoliu, and Su Chenrui packed up the firewood and put it in the firewood room. Su Qiao went into the house to coax Xiaoliu.

It's really a poor man's child who is in charge early, and he is simply too sensible. Sensible makes Su Rui feel distressed, in modern times, these are the ages of elementary school, and in ancient farming families, they already have to take care of housework.

Before waiting for Xiao Liu's meal to be ready, Su Rui first took the wild eggs and wrapped wild ginseng picked up from the mountain, pretended to take them into the side room, turned around and put them into the space.

"The eldest sister put the wild eggs on the kang in the side room and covered them with a cotton jacket, don't move it. The eldest sister wanted to see if she could hatch chicks in a warm place. ”

"By the way, Sister Yeshan Ginseng also hid in a secret place to prevent the old house from coming to find out." The sisters and brothers agreed together.

Su Rui began to boil the water, ready to remove the chicken feathers.

"Eldest sister, will you be able to eat eggs in the future? Can Wan'er eat eggs? Sister Ya'er of the uncle's family said that the eggs are delicious. Su Wan looked at Su Rui pitifully.

"Yes, in the future, when there are eggs, everyone eats them. There are various flavors of boiled, stir-fried, and steamed "Su Rui felt very heartbroken...

"Wow......" the little girl cried out excitedly.
