After breakfast was ready, Lin Zifu packed a few nests and put them in a cloth bag.

If she goes home for dinner at noon, it will be too delaying to come and go, after all, it is quite far to go to the woods behind the village through the bamboo forest, and she wants to dig more herbs to make more money.

There was a woodcutter in the back basket, and the nest head was also put in the back basket, and two bamboo tubes of water were brought, and one person took two nest heads and ate while walking.

Aunt Ying carried a hoe on her back, and held a nest head in one hand and gnawed on it: "Zifu, when will the bamboo be cut." ”

At this moment, just walking in the bamboo forest, Lin Zifu knocked on the bamboo on the side with her hand and said: "Come back in the afternoon to chop the hand, and then borrow a ladder to put the dustpan on the roof, and when you have time tomorrow, we will build a shelf, and we will dig more herbs when the weather is good today." ”

If you don't make money, you won't be sure, you only have dozens of dollars on hand, you can't make money, you can't make money, seeing that it's getting cold every day, you must not only prepare food for the winter, but also prepare clothes for the winter.

Aunt Ying listened to Lin Zifu in everything, and after contact, she felt that Lin Zifu was very thoughtful, all the previous repairs to the house were arranged by Lin Zifu, and they were done properly, and many details were taken care of, I have to say that Lin Zifu's strength made her admire it very much.

Perhaps this is the early age of the children of the poor.

Yesterday, the wheat in the woods had been dug up, and today they had to change places, so the two chose another direction.

The people in the village usually dig a well by themselves, and in the past two days, Lin Zifu's family has been collecting water at Aunt Liao's house, or the house was repaired at that time, and He Dayou helped pick it up.

And she said that Aunt Liao said that there is a mountain spring behind the bamboo forest, and the water is very sweet and good.

So she wanted to see the location of the mountain spring, and if she could, she would like to bring the water from the mountain spring to her home, so that it would be convenient to clean the herbs or something.

This is also in the direction of the mountain spring.

Passing through the bamboo forest was a small forest, and the sound of cutting trees came from the forest, and the direction of the sound was that she was going to find the mountain spring.

Walking slowly, I saw a young man of about seventeen or eighteen years old, dressed in a blue cloth shortcoat, holding a woodcutter and cutting down trees.

The young man has thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a bandana is wrapped around his head, although the young man looks average, but the heroism between the eyebrows is still difficult to ignore.

In modern terms, the appearance of a teenager is the type that is durable.

The young man noticed that someone was coming, and when he looked up, he saw Aunt Ying, who was a little hideous, and Lin Zifu, who was thin and weak, and couldn't help grinning and greeting: "The two of you are Aunt Ying and Miss Lin who just came to the village." ”

Lin Zifu was sure that she hadn't seen the boy before, and the boy seemed to know her very well.

"You are?" She asked, confused.

The young man smiled brightly and introduced enthusiastically: "I live in the east of the village, my name is He Yunhu, He Dayou is my uncle, where are you going?" ”

He Yunhu was very curious, he knew something about Lin Zifu from his aunt Tian Guixiang, but he didn't expect that Lin Zifu was only thirteen years old and decided to widow her husband who had not yet married, this kind of behavior looked very stupid, but it was respected, which proved that Lin Zifu was a loving and righteous person.

As for the scar on Aunt Ying's face, he didn't feel terrible, except for looking a little uncomfortable at first glance, he got used to it at second sight.

Lin Zifu saw that He Yunhu was not a bad person, and asked enthusiastically when he spoke: "Aunt Liao said that there is a mountain spring near here, the water flow is very large, and the water is very sweet, I want to ask Brother Yunhu if he knows where it is?" ”

Lin Zifu's voice was originally quite soft and crisp, He Yunhu heard Lin Zifu call him Brother Yunhu, the whole person instantly became light and fluttering, very happy, and said continuously: "You want to find a mountain spring, I'll take you there, that place may not be easy for you to find, because you are not familiar with the environment here, you come with me." ”

He directly knocked down the tree that was about to be cut down, and led the way in front with a smile.

Aunt Ying didn't speak, but just took Lin Zifu to follow behind He Yunhu.

He Yunhu turned around and said curiously as he walked: "Aunt Ying heard that you are collecting medicine?" ”

Aunt Ying was originally a cold-faced and warm-hearted person, He Yunhu was so enthusiastic, and he was still helping them, of course he was embarrassed to blacken his face, nodded slightly, and said, "We went into the mountain to collect medicine." ”

He Yunhu looked adoring: "You guys are so powerful, you actually know medicinal herbs, we have lived in this mountain for so many years, and there are only a few medicinal herbs we know, and you are really capable of digging herbs to make money." ”

This is the truth, not deliberately to please Lin Zifu, but after saying it, his eyes couldn't help but look at Lin Zifu.

The thirteen-year-old girl is so smart, although her body is a little thinner, but her clean eyes make people can't take their eyes off.

Following He Yunhu to the mountain, He Yunhu, who was walking in front, used a firewood knife from time to time to cut off the branches and thorns blocking the road.

He Yunhu couldn't help asking, "What are you looking for mountain springs for?" ”

Lin Zifu said: "I want to see if the water is good, if it is good, I want to bring the water to my home for use." ”

When she passed by the bamboo forest, she carefully looked at the bamboo, don't think about any modern products such as plastic pipes in this era, local materials will still be, bamboo as long as the middle partition is removed, one by one bamboo can also be connected together to make water pipes, although the bamboo pipe from the mountain home seems to be a huge project, in fact, it is not as terrible as imagined, as long as it is done at one time, it can be managed for a long time.

It was the first time He Yunhu had heard that he was going to bring the mountain spring home.

I was surprised: "Wouldn't that be very troublesome, it would be better to dig a well." ”

Lin Zifu smiled bitterly and shook her head, she went to Aunt Liao's well to see it, she had to dig it deep, she needed silver to dig a well, and she didn't have silver now.

And the mountain spring doesn't need much silver to bring home, there are a lot of masters in the bamboo forest, and when the time comes, she can find a way to make bamboo pipes after cutting the master, so it doesn't cost much, maybe it doesn't cost at all.

And along the way, if it's a straight line, it doesn't take much bamboo.

After all, she walked along the trail when she entered the mountain, which was more winding.

She stopped and looked in the direction of her home, which she looked about a few hundred meters away.

He Yunhu, who was already able to hear the sound of running water, stopped walking in front, and at this moment he had already walked to the foot of the mountain.

Although Fang Cai gave Lin Zifu the feeling that she was going up the mountain, she was actually just walking towards the foot of the mountain.

The mountain is a bit high, and at the foot of the mountain there is a hole with a large bowl mouth, and a clear spring the size of a water cup flows out of the hole, and the spring water flows down the stone crevice and disappears.

He Yunhu said: "This mountain spring water has been flowing, my father said that there was already a mountain spring here when he was a child, and it has not been exhausted for so many years, but there are stone crevices underneath, and the water cannot be stored." ”
