In the ripe season such as bean millet, there are many busy people in the slopes, but there are many fewer people who go into the woods to pick wild fruits and collect fertile soil than in the previous days.

"This blue ** is diligent, you look at other people's trips, but you can collect a lot of things back. I don't know what she can do when she gets it back, and the rent she collects is not enough for her mother? ”

"I heard from the daughter-in-law of the Zhao family that Lan ** dug a cellar at home to put things. I don't think she has anything to put in it, and it's better to collect some wild fruit than to leave it empty, right? Tsk, I heard that this cellar has been spent a lot, I really don't know what she thinks. ”

"This little daughter-in-law is really brave, I don't think she knows how powerful the wolves are in the mountains! If this one is not careful, there will be only two children left, and this family will be scattered! ”

"People are coming, you be quiet. Lin Shan's family's thin skin and tender flesh, why can't he tan? , look at our tanned like black ash, look at the other people's ......"

...... "Everyone is silent, is your voice good at all?"

On the second day, Lan Yi asked Chen, Liu, and Niu's sister-in-law to pick chestnuts together, and talked about the benefits of chestnuts, but their family has a lot of paddy fields and mountains, and they have already begun to be busy with the autumn harvest. Like other farmers, the fields on the hillside can also be watered because of the overturned car, and they plan to clean up during this time and make some efforts to plant winter wheat again. So I only followed Lan Yi for a day, picked two sacks of chestnuts enough to eat for myself, stopped, and continued to be busy with the work in the field.

Lan Yi only has two acres of land, and there are cabbages planted, so naturally there is nothing to do, so he shelled the chestnuts that can be knocked down with bamboo poles and put them in sacks, and used donkeys to move them home again and again, and after transporting them home, he followed the modern method of preserving chestnuts, put them in the well water and soaked them in a jar for seven days, took them out and put them in a basket to hang them to dry, and then packed them in sacks and received them in the cellar. Intermittently, Lan Yi also collected more than 20 bags of chestnuts, and every time she went down to the cellar, she drooled and thought about the recipe when she saw this pile of chestnuts, and she was very happy.

After the water in the rice fields is emptied, it is time to harvest. Second Uncle Wang's paddy field is not much, Lan Yi helped the Li family cook and watch the children for a few days, the rice in the field was taken back to the drying field, and the rest of the things were not for Lan Yi to help, she took her two children to cut grass and herd sheep on the hillside every day, or taught them to know common herbs in the places cleared out of the woods, or picked herbs and harvested wild fruits in the woods, but she was also very comfortable.

"Aunt Lan, are you still making steamed eggs tonight? I picked these two eggs in the grass nest, can they be steamed together? Niu Dan and a six- or seven-year-old child ran to the hillside of Lan Yi's house, holding two duck eggs like treasures.

"Cow egg, this is not an egg, are you going to the meadow again?" Lan Yi asked with a straight face, there is a grass pond in Huaxi, not far from the edge of the village, where the ducks in the village or the wild ducks passing by will rest in the grass pond and occasionally pick up a few duck eggs.

The children of the peasant families run all over the village after the age of three or four, but the adults will warn that they are not allowed to go down the water and go to the grass pond, but some children still secretly run to touch the duck eggs. The two trouser legs of the cow egg are wet, but the shoes on the feet are clean, and it looks like they took off their shoes and went down to the pond to touch the duck eggs.

"Hehe, Aunt Lan, we thought you couldn't tell the difference between duck eggs and eggs." The cow egg rubbed his feet weakly.

Lan Yi's face is black, these two bear children!

"You Aunt Lan, I'm not a fool!"

"But they say you can't even tell which grass you can eat......" The boy next to him looked right.

"......" Lan Yi was speechless, she picked a lot of "grass" from the woods that could not be boiled and eaten, but it was "herbs" or not!

"Okay, don't go down to the pond to touch duck eggs in the future, if you want to eat it, let your father take it, you know?"

The two bear children shouted in unison: "Got it." ”

Lan Yi knew that they hadn't heard it when she saw that expression: "If you don't obey, don't come to Aunt Lan's house for dinner again!" Yu'er, you look at them, if you go down to the pond again, you will sue Sù Niang. ”

Yu'er patted her little chest: "Okay!" ”

The two eggplants with cow eggs were suddenly like frost, and Aunt Lan's rice was delicious, and they were not less blessed. The children of the peasant family grew up eating hundreds of family meals, and if the relationship is good, they will stay to eat without going home, as long as they talk to the adults in advance. Lan Yi has a good temper and cooks delicious food, and Yu'er's few friends who have a good relationship go to Lan Yi's house to eat, this threat is very useful.

Because she cooks a variety of meals and is willing to put oil and salt, Sister-in-law Niu complained that her children shouted what to eat every day.

"Okay, take these two duck eggs home one by one, and come to Aunt Lan's house tomorrow at noon to eat steamed eggs." Lan Yi said with a smile, children are the most understanding, all the thoughts are on their faces, and after listening to Lan Yi's words, the two little guys suddenly smiled again.

Lan Yi let the four children play together, and then she cleaned up the broken stones and tree roots on the hillside, and now the hillside has been fertilized and ploughed, just waiting to plant peonies in a few days. Since the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the emperor has been sage, the wind and rain have been smooth, and he has become rich in recent years. The imperial court kept the people, and there were not many poll taxes for all kinds of land taxes, and they were even often exempt from taxes, such as cultivating fields in the barren mountains, and no taxes were collected for the first five years, and all the crops belonged to themselves. Lan Yi felt that the people in the village were lazy before clearing the wasteland, but now she knows the hard work of clearing the wasteland, leveling the land, picking up stones, picking up stones, carrying water to water the fields, the weeds grow better than the crops in the first few years, and it depends on the sky to eat, so everyone will not make any effort to do this work if they have a way, it is really better to go to the city to work for a few days to get money quickly.

On this day she took the children to clean up on the hillside, and started the idea of hares and pheasants.

Since crossing over, except for pork and fish and shrimp in the stream, Lan Yi has not eaten other meat for a long time. The hens in the house have to keep to lay eggs, and the roosters have to be slaughtered and eaten during the holidays, and her family is reluctant to eat them.

The hare, which happened to run through the woods, was chubby, and the pheasant was beautiful, so that she couldn't help but think about it, and that look was the human version of the braised whole sheep with his eyes full of eyes when Gray Taro saw the lamb.

Lan Yi didn't know how to shoot arrows, and he didn't want to wait stupidly for a basket, so he took the child to dig three traps in the place where the forest had not yet been excavated. The top is made of thin branches, rice ears, and radishes to form a cover that can be flipped over, and when you step on it, you will flip it over and fall into the pit one meter deep below.

Three days later, I went to check, and actually let her find four hares and three pheasants from the three traps, and transported these gluttonous unlucky guys home with a chicken and rabbit cage, Lan Yi sent a hare and a pheasant to the second uncle's house, and now it is the busy farming season to add some meat to increase the body.

The Li family was naturally grateful, but he still kindly reminded Lan Yimo to go to the depths of the forest and be careful of those fierce beasts that came out to find food.

Everyone knew that Lan Yi's trap caught wild meat, and they also dug a few places, and the more daring ones even went to the depths of the forest to dig traps, the lids of this trap are also varied, but they are all things that the beasts in the mountains love to eat. So Lan Yi had to be careful of the traps inserted in the branches when she went to the forest to pick fruits, so as not to catch the rabbit and people fall into it.

Now everyone takes advantage of the morning or evening to go around the traps dug by their own in the woods, but now there are more traps, and the rabbits and pheasants also have experience, and it often takes three or two days to catch one, and then they gradually lose interest. Lan Yi's trap is only for some reason that every time she checks it, she can get something, which makes her constantly sigh that she is lucky.

One day, Yu'er ran back and said that there was a wild boar in the trap, and he was trying to figure it out with his nose.

Lan Yi was dumbfounded, her mouth was wide open, and a few crows flying by on her head added to the atmosphere.

"How is this possible?! How did the wild boar fall in, could it be that it fell in love with our radish? You go to the field and ask the second uncle to come over and help catch it, stay away, don't get hurt. ”

Yu'er found the second uncle Wang Linxi, Wang Linxi and Wang Linyuan brought back a fierce boar of forty or fifty catties, which was also called luck.

Lan Yi looked at the wild boar that was trapped as a dumpling and rolled her eyes, she didn't have the courage to slaughter and eat meat.

Wang Linxi wiped his sweat: "Sister-in-law, this wild boar has a broken hind leg, I don't know how it hurt." Why did you fall into the pit? ”

Lan Yi looked at the sky, she also wanted to know.

"Sister-in-law, don't sell this wild boar to the pork stall that Zhou Lao picks, he can't give it a price, and he has to have two taels of silver when he pulls it to the county seat." Wang Lin Yuanjian yì said.

Lin Yuan had been an apprentice in the county seat, and Lan Yi sent the wild boar to the inn and pointed her to a big inn that did not deceive customers. Lan Yi used a basket to pull it to the restaurant in the county seat, and it was really as the third brother Wang Linyuan said that the wild boar was sold for two taels of silver. Lan Yi bought two roast chickens directly from the restaurant and sent them to the second uncle's house, which was a celebration.

That night, Lan Yi and the three of them went home after eating at the second uncle's house, the three of them were still excited, Yu'er and the baby sang the song of the pig loudly, and Lan Yi was also rare in front of the two children for a naïve time, talking and laughing constantly.

"Mother, what do you say you can catch next time? Yu'er wants a baby wolf, like little Gray Gray. "Yu'er likes the story of Gray Taro, especially the little wolf who can only be friends with sheep.

“…… I guess not, wolves don't like to eat rice and turnips, unless we tie a piece of meat to the lid of the trap......" Thinking about the trap with the meat tied, Lan Yi felt a chill.

Zhou Weiji was lying in his yard, listening to the cheerful voices of the three next door, and the corners of his mouth were hooked.

Forget about the wolf cubs, next time throw two pheasants in, the pheasants are easier to catch.
