In the early morning of the next day, the rainy days that lasted for many days passed, so the sky was clear, the white clouds were curling, and finally there was a trace of spring warmth!

"Do you really have to come along?"

Out of the summer city, go north, the sparse forest belt is becoming more and more luxuriant, the young shoots have been pulled out, climbing on the branches, green and gratifying.

"You're so sure, of course I'm going to take a look!"

Xia Lingyue was really curious to death, and his younger brother wanted to earn a thousand knife coins in seven days, which was simply an impossible task.

"Okay, but in danger, you run first, leave me alone!"

Xia Ye compromised and patiently instructed.

The tide of wild beasts has just passed, and the wild is not very safe, so there are hardly a few people on the road, and when they enter the forest, they are even more inaccessible, and there is not even a single ghost.

"How much longer?"

I set off before dawn, and now I have walked a long way by the three poles of the day, but Xia Lingyue is used to hardships, and I don't feel tired: "Ahhh

Pushing aside the branches of the trees that stood in the way, a large field of wild grapes suddenly broke into view.

"Wow, why are there so many? How many grapes can I harvest if I wait until autumn?"

Xia Lingyue trotted over, and muttered while carefully checking her growth: "Mine, it's all mine!"

"It's all yours!"

Natsuno stood against a tree, his eyes full of smiles.

"No, these vines are not of the same vintage, and there are not many weeds around, obviously plucked!"

Xia Lingyue quickly found the clues, and looked at her younger brother in shock: "What's the matter?"

"I planted it!"

Natsuno explained.

"How is that possible?"

Xia Lingyue screamed, and then covered her mouth again, talking so loudly in the forest, it was hard to attract the beast.

"When did you learn to grow grapes?"

Xia Lingyue knew that her brother never lied, so she was shocked.

"Slowly groping and using it for a few years, I learned it!"

Xia Ye made up a reason that in this era, food was scarce, so the land was used to grow crops such as sorghum, millet, and wheat that could be used as staple food.

Ordinary people eat vegetables, dig in the field, orchards and vegetable gardens, that are things that only a few nobles have, is a symbol of status, so the threshold of planting technology is very high, and it is also mysterious to civilians.

"How?

Xia Lingyue shook Xia Ye's arm and looked at him like a kitten: "Do you use seeds?"

"Grafting!"

Xia Ye's words were concise and to the point.

"Marry...... Pick up?"

Xia Lingyue looked confused, this kind of vocabulary is tantamount to a fantasy for her.

"Well, just pick the sweetest and strongest vine, cut one branch, and attach it to the other vines!"

Natsuno explained.

"Can you live like this?"

Xia Lingyue's small mouth opened into an 'O' shape.

"Wild grapes, many of which are sour, need to be grafted until the sweetest and biggest grapes are left!"

Xia Ye thought about it, and still didn't talk about the topic of cuttings, otherwise he would need to explain more.

"It's incredible!"

Xia Lingyue sighed, then became excited, pinched her younger brother, and her eyes lit up: "You mean that all the grapes here are big and sweet?"

"If nothing else!"

Xia Ye bared her teeth, and her sister had a lot of hands.

"As long as you're in good health in the past few years, you've always gone out, won't you always grow grapes here?"

Xia Lingyue asked.

"How is that possible? Just drop by, it's not effortless anyway!"

Xia Ye couldn't cry or laugh, could it be that I was originally a fruit farmer until I was hit by an arrow in the knee?

"Effortless?"

Xia Lingyue wanted to scream again, with this kind of craftsmanship, he is a master, and he is qualified to be corporal Zhao Wang Lixian, okay!

"Let's go, I'm not taking you to see the grapes!"

Xia Ye continued to lead the way, taking care of it for five years, looking at the growth, there should be a good harvest this year, and when the time comes, several early plans can also be put into practice.

Xia Lingyue turned back three times in one step, reluctant to look at the vineyard, and longed to live here.

Passing through a bamboo forest, on the bank of a gurgling stream, there was a small open field, and as soon as the summer moon arrived, it screamed and pounced on the pebbles.

The wind passes through the bamboo forest, the green shade sways, the swallows cross the stream, and the birds chirp!

This place is really beautiful!

"Yay, there are fish!"

Xia Lingyue took off her straw sandals, rolled up her sleeves, and jumped down immediately, but then she hit a spirit.

The stream water in early spring is still a little cool!

The fish is not big, two fingers wide, and it swims cunningly, and Xia Lingyue tried several times, but he didn't catch it.

"Oops, run away again!"

Xia Lingyue slapped the water surface in annoyance.

"Don't catch it, don't eat fish at noon!"

Xia Ye carried a stone plate and put it in the shallow water by the stream: "Remember to eat, I'm going to be busy!"

"Wait, what is this?"

Xia Lingyue ran over, splashing the water on her feet.

The stone plate is piled with a heart-shaped fruit, stained with dewdrops, and with the green leaves of the roots, the red is lovely.

"Strawberries!"

Natsuno chuckled.

"Strawberries?"

At Xia Ye's suggestion, Xia Lingyue picked one up and put it in her mouth.

The braided shell's teeth were forced, and they easily bit through the flesh, and a soft touch just hit the heart, and was replaced by a slight acidity, and then turned into sweetness.

Call!

Xia Lingyue closed her eyes slightly, took a deep breath, and the aftertaste was endless, and then, another bright red strawberry entered her stomach.

"It's so sweet, you can taste it too!"

Xia Lingyue picked one up and handed it to Xia Ye.

"It's too sweet, I don't like it, you eat it!"

Natsuno shook his head.

"Oh"

Stretching out the tip of her pink tongue and licking off the remaining juice on her lips, Xia Lingyue, who was still unsatisfied, put away the plate.

"Eat, don't save!"

Xia Ye was speechless.

"Don't, save it, eat it later!"

Summer Month refuses.

"You can't put this thing in, it's going to be fresh!"

Natsuba explained.

"Don't do that!"

Summer Moon shook her head into a rattle.

"You can eat it, there are many more to come!"

Seeing my sister's smile, the effort to transplant these strawberries was totally worth it.

"Don't ...... What?"

Xia Lingyue was stunned.

Xia Ye pointed casually, and Xia Lingyue rushed out like a rabbit on the loose.

"Huh!"

Xia Ye prepared the tools, but after a while, Xia Lingyue rushed back, pulling him and walking back: "Strawberries, lots!"

"I know!"

Xia Ye was speechless.

Xia Lingyue's body stiffened, and suddenly thought of a possibility: "It won't be you planting it again, right?"

"The wild ones won't grow in the vegetable beds!"

Xia Ye tore away his sister's hand: "You play by yourself, I'm going to work!"

"Oh!"

Xia Lingyue looked at her younger brother, and then at the vegetable furrow in the bamboo forest, and after being stunned for a few seconds, she rushed over again: "No, I have to take another look." ”

There are no dazzles, about half an acre of land, neatly planted with six rows of low plants, the kind of fruit that my brother called strawberries grow on it, and some are not ripe.

"I must be dreaming!"

Xia Lingyue murmured, saw a caterpillar crawling on the leaves, and immediately knocked it off, this is their own strawberry, no one wants to eat it!

Pulling weeds and removing insects, after being busy for a while, Xia Lingyue suddenly remembered that she hadn't done anything serious, so she looked for her younger brother.

"No need, just take a stroll!"

Xia Ye is reluctant to let his sister work: "Besides, you won't!"

"Oh!"

The younger brother grew up and became assertive, which made Xia Lingyue a little disappointed, but she soon became excited again and ran around like a fawn and began to explore her new world.

This clearing, bent by the stream into a vertical crescent shape, the south side is the lower half of the crescent moon, covered by a bamboo forest, and the west side is the rock wall of a large mountain, as if cut down by the giant axe of the gods, there is a kind of precipitous state of the wall standing thousands of feet.

There are several natural caves on the rock wall, and occasionally swallows bring in the spring mud to build their nests in the crevices.

Xia Lingyue stood at the entrance of the cave and looked down.

"The first one on the left is the deepest, warm in winter and cool in summer, it is a natural storeroom, the second is a kitchen, the third is a bedroom, the third is the largest, stacked with miscellaneous items, and next to it are workshops with various functions. ”

Xia Ye raised his eyebrows: "Do you want to visit?"

"Yes!"

Xia Lingyue ran directly into the third cave, and by the sunlight projecting in, she saw that there were some daily necessities here, all neatly arranged, but the most eye-catching were the clay pots piled up in the corners.

"So much?"

Xia Lingyue was stunned, if this is bought, how many knife coins will it cost? But thinking that everything in this Taoyuan Township was built by his younger brother, is it ......

"What I do is a failure!"

Xia Ye smiled embarrassedly, when he was in college, he was pulled into the classical department by a familiar senior sister to make up the number of people, so he was a little involved in pottery, porcelain, and even tea ceremony.

Xia Lingyue squatted next to a pile of pottery, touched this, knocked on that, and suddenly screamed when she heard Xia Ye say this.

"Such a great clay pot, but it's still a failure?"

"It's not pretty!"

Natsuno explained.

“......”

Xia Lingyue is speechless, what is the beauty? Can you eat it? I don't know why, my brother's ideas are sometimes always whimsical and unpredictable!

"I just want to give a gift to archaeologists in a thousand years!"

Xia Ye shrugged his shoulders, he had already buried a dozen or so well-done clay pots in the depths of the cave, with the forty-eight hand paintings of Edo that he had carefully sketched, as well as the opening two sentences of the sword technique to ward off evil spirits, if it weren't for the Nine Yin True Scripture being too long to remember, he would have carved it!

Xia Lingyue didn't ask what the archaeologist was, anyway, his younger brother often popped out of his mouth with some inexplicable words.

"Let's go, I'll make you a treat today!"

Natsuno went to the storage cave and carried a bag of wheat out and entered the workshop.

"Barley porridge can also be called a delicacy?"

Summer Moon wondered.

Due to the fault line of civilization, people in this post-stone age did not understand the hulling method of wheat sorghum at all, and the cooking method was basically steaming and stewing, so the taste of the cooked rice can be imagined.

"Now it's my turn to create a mysterious tool!"

Xia Ye sold a pass.
