Chapter Ninety-Four: Into the Mountains to Harvest
Liu Sanniang said that she wanted to go, so she took them all, and the two cars at home could barely pull them all over, but the firewood couldn't pull anything back, so Ganda should be happy with her family.
Liu Sanniang Zhang Luo brought water and dry food, it was rare to go once, how could she play for a day and come back, Sister Chun took his flower girl and four babies, Zheng Butcher saw that there were so many people, so he brought Zheng Dawa with him, in addition to his own children, Tang Xiaowen and Yan Wan also brought them, Yan Wan's nurse heard that she was going to the mountains, worried about Yan Wan, and she also had to go with her.
Zou Xiaoxi helped Liu Sanniang prepare the things to bring, and when she returned to the house, she saw Gan Shiyi pouting her ass and rummaging for something in the box where the clothes were kept, and walked over and patted her buttocks, "You have to go to the mountains to play naughty, and one sentence makes the family turn over on their backs." ”
Gan Xiaotang looked back with a small shirt on his head, "Mother, help me find it, where is my little satchel?" Tomorrow I will carry it to the mountains. ”
"You don't put your bag here." Zou Xiaoxi pulled out the carrot like a turnip, pulled her out of the box and put it on the other side, went to rummage through the small bag for her, Gan Xiaotang put the small bag on his shoulder and turned it around, and after a while, he felt that the bag was a little small, Zou Xiaoxi made this for her to hold a handful of candy or a handful of melon seeds, Gan Xiaotang stopped turning his feet, and rushed out quickly.
"What are you going to do again?" Zou Xiaoxi asked.
"I'll ask my aunt to make me a bigger satchel." Gan Xiaotang said without looking back.
"You see how happy she is, don't talk about her." Ganda said.
"Okay, don't talk about her, I'm the only villain in the whole family." Zou Xiaoxiao said with a smile.
The next morning, Gan Xiaotang woke up, the donkey cart was full of dozing brothers, Gan Xiaotang's eyes were as bright as lanterns, looking at both sides curiously, Liu Sanniang asked her to take a look first, she was going to play in the mountains for a day today.
"Grandma, I'm not sleepy." Gan Xiaotang snuggled up to Liu Sanniang, "Grandma, what's in the mountains?" ”
"There's everything in the mountains." Liu Sanniang said that she also used to live in the mountains with Gan butchers, and then she came to Jiangyang and never went to the mountains. Liu Sanniang hugged Gan Xiaotang and whispered, saying that there were little rabbits in the mountains, trees, wild flowers and wild fruits all over the mountain.
Gan Xiaotang slowly fell asleep in her voice.
When they arrived at the place, Gan Xiaotang was woken up by the sound of his brothers' chirping, Gan Da came down to answer them, they came first, and had already trimmed a flat land on the mountainside, so that the young and a few little ladies could play nearby, Gan Xiaotang wanted to go by herself, but she was a little big, and as soon as she put it down and drowned in the grass, Gan Da put her on her shoulders and walked all the way forward.
When she arrived at the place, Liu Sanniang spread the old quilt she brought from home on the ground, you could sit and lie down, and a wooden box was opened to become a tabletop, Liu Sanniang took out the food prepared at home, "If you are hungry, come to eat first, a few of you act together, you can't be alone, you can't run away, each person is divided into a reed flute, if you are separated, stay where you are and play the reed flute and don't walk around." ”
"There are traps set by Orion in this mountain, so pay attention to your steps when you walk, and don't be distracted." Liu Sanniang said that she said so carefully, in fact, the children are not allowed to play in the mountains, they can only walk around here, and it must be a place where Liu Sanniang can see, or a place where she can respond when she shouts.
Gan Xiaotang was even more miserable, he didn't even let the range of the old quilt go out, so he followed Twelve to sit on the quilt and play, it was really to the mountains to come to the autumn tour.
Liu Sanniang watched the children finish eating, and watched them disappear into the mountains and forests like joy, Gan Da said, "I'm chopping wood at a slightly higher place, and I'm watching." ”
"If you don't look at you and shout, look where." Liu Sanniang said, "What about your father? ”
"Dad and Zheng Orion went to the other side, worried that the children would touch the trap by mistake, and they all withdrew the traps here." Ganda said, "I might come over after making the trap in the morning." ”
"Don't go yet, build me an earthen stove there." Liu Sanniang looked at the direction of the wind and pointed downwind, "Your father may bring the prey over and burn the game at noon." ”
Liu Sanniang finally finished her work and sat down to rest, Gan Deli picked up two thorn balls for Eleven Twelve to play, Tang Xiaowen crossed her waist and taught him, "Xiaoba, what are you doing?" How can you give Eleven a touch of this thorn ball? ”
"I think this looks weird, show it to them." Ganderley argued. As soon as he saw the novelty, he wanted to bring it back to his younger siblings to see, but how could it be wrong.
"Show me." Liu Sanniang took it and saw that it was a small round ball wrapped in green spikes, she looked around, picked up a big stone and smashed the small thorn ball open, revealing two brown foreskin fruits inside.
"Oops, it's chestnuts." Yan Wan's nurse shouted.
"You've only seen chestnuts like this, but you don't know them when they're wrapped in thorns." Liu Sanniang said with a smile, "Balang, where did you pick up this thorn ball, how much?" ”
"Many, all over the place." Gandery said.
"Take me to see, I wanted to come and play, but I didn't expect the ready-made copper plate to lie on the ground, and I can't do it if I don't pick it up." Liu Sanniang said with a smile that she followed Xiaoba over and found a small chestnut forest on the slope of Mianyang, the chestnut tree has a high yield, and a tree can have more than ten catties of fruit, not to mention hundreds of catties here.
That's dozens of dollars here.
Liu Sanniang let everyone disperse, she went to find a long wooden root, and hit the chestnut canopy, and the green thorn balls fell to the ground one after another, and then she and Sister Chun sat down to smash the thorn balls, and the big boys helped to transport the scattered thorn balls, and the three little ladies took out the chestnuts from the smashed thorn balls.
All the staff worked, Gan 11 and Gan 12 even moved people with quilts and put them on their sides, although they were not very smooth, but they could also be done, Gan Xiaotang stretched out her hand and she also wanted to help, Liu Sanniang smashed open a chestnut and peeled the flesh for her to eat, "Fresh chestnuts are also delicious and sweet." ”
Gan Xiaotang was also sullen after eating chestnuts, her current body would add chaos to the mountains, let alone help.
After working all morning, it wasn't until the Gan butcher came over with two pheasants that Liu Sanniang was shocked to realize that it was already this time, she clapped her hands to let the children rest, she got up to get lunch, "I don't know how to pick up chestnuts all over the place." She complained to the butcher.
"I don't usually come this way, it's too close to the roadside to have no prey." Gan butcher said.
Liu Sanniang brought seasonings and pasted two chickens called flowers and buried them under the stove, boiled a pot of boiled bird eggs on it, Zheng butcher took out more than 20 bird eggs, boiled chestnuts also boiled a pot, and brought steamed buns and braised vegetables, all of them sat on the ground, and picked up fresh leaves to make bowls without bowls, and ate wild fun.
At noon, Gan Butcher and Zheng Orion took the four older children to the deep forest, taught them how to identify traps, identify the traces of prey, and by the way check whether there is any prey in the traps they have laid, boys naturally like these things, and when Gambury followed Ah Weng in the morning, he also learned to lay a trap by himself, and when he went to see a little rabbit dropped inside, Gan Butcher smiled and said, "Then you are stronger than your father, and you will gain the first time you set a trap." ”
Gamboli carefully scooped up the rabbit, this rabbit is still very small, not much bigger than the palm of his hand, "This rabbit doesn't have two taels of meat, it's better to leave it to Eleven to play." ”
