Chapter 115: Spring Bamboo Shoots and Songs
Zhao was also a diligent person, and when he saw Liu Wan asking her to go up the mountain, without saying a word, he went up the mountain with Liu Wan with a bamboo basket on his back.
Wang Li and Wang Lian are very close to Liu Wan now, and they will not miss this opportunity to be with their mother, and the two small pendants also go up the mountain with Liu Wan to dig bamboo shoots.
Several people help each other, the bamboo forest on the mountain is very lush, the bamboo can emerge almost every few days, and the villagers will come up to dig bamboo shoots every now and then.
It is very hard to dig bamboo shoots up the mountain, although the tip of the bamboo shoots is exposed to the ground, but you have to dig a pit of about 30 or 40 centimeters down, dig to the roots, and then use a hoe to shovel off the roots, which is considered a successful digging.
It's fine to dig up one bamboo shoot, but if you dig a dozen bamboo shoots, if you have never done farm work, your hand skin will definitely be worn out.
Fortunately, Liu Wan has taken the fitness pill, and now she is strong and healthy, and her strength is about equivalent to three Xie Tietou, so she swings the hoe, which is as light as a feather, and the speed of digging down is also very fast, and one person is worth three people.
The Zhao family on the side was also quite surprised to see Liu Wan's speed of digging bamboo shoots, she didn't expect Liu Wan to be so capable.
Zhao is already a woman with good physical strength in the village, but I didn't expect Liu Wan, who is not particularly strong in appearance, to be so capable of working?
Liu Wan was not afraid that the Zhao family would find out that she was capable, because she had no friends in the village before, and no one knew how hard her labor was?
Everyone just saw her appearance and thought she was delicate.
While Liu Wan was working, she was in a good mood and hummed a little song.
In order not to be too abrupt, she hummed some ancient songs.
"In troubled times, duckweed endures to watch the beacon fire burn the mountains and rivers
I dare not forget my country, even if no one knows me
The people in the audience walked by and did not see the old color
The people on the stage sang a heartbreak parting song
Love words are difficult to ink, and she sings with blood
The curtain rises, the curtain falls, who is the guest......
This is "Chi Ling", the song is very good, and Liu Wan's voice is also good.
The bamboo forest is moist with soil, the air is fresh, and the spring is full of vigor and vitality, which is pleasant.
Liu Wan's song walked through the treetops, which was pleasant to the ear, which made Zhao very rare, and she said with a smile:
"Aunt Liu, I didn't expect you to have a golden voice, this singing is really good. It's much better than their songs. ”
The countrymen entertained themselves, and there were mountain songs sung by men and women.
When working, shouting on the top of the mountain, there are people on the opposite hill to respond, which is a good way to dispel the boredom and dullness of labor, and can also dissipate fatigue.
But the wild tone is not very particular, and that tone is the same as the crying tone during the funeral, which lengthens the throat and babbles.
Those who like it like it, and those who don't like it think it's too ugly.
Zhao is the kind of person who doesn't like the tune of mountain songs, so when he heard Liu Wan's ancient songs, he liked them quite a lot, and asked Liu Wan to teach her to sing.
Liu Wan is not stage frightened, the quality of the original voice is good, with this style song, don't be too perfect.
Liu Wan had the heart to teach, Zhao studied carefully, sang along word by word, and then sang again, and said happily:
"It's so good, it's easy and fun to work with Aunt Liu, remember to come to work and call me in the future."
Zhao likes Liu Wan more and more.
Liu Wan didn't expect that her singing skills could add points to her making friends.
The two of them were talking and singing, and Wang Lian and Wang Li were also drunk and fascinated by listening on the side.
Especially Wang Lian, listening to her mother's singing with a kind of adoring eyes, she also hummed along.
Not to mention, the little girl has a good brain, and she actually learned.
"I'll teach you this song today, and next time we work together, we'll sing another song."
Liu Wanxian put it away.
No wonder it feels so good to be a star, everyone is rushing to become a star, especially young people.
In addition to making a lot of money, the feeling of being stared at with adoring eyes and being drunk and admired is also very enjoyable, right?
As soon as Zhao heard that there was a new song study, he became energetic and said:
"Then let's dig bamboo shoots together tomorrow, right?"
Liu Wan thought of the system's warning at this time, and immediately felt that she should also help the Zhao family.
The Zhao family was the only friend she made here, both the Zhao family and Xie Tietou were very enthusiastic and upright, they did not look down on them when her family was in difficulty, and they also helped them.
This kind of person can be befriended, and there is a great chance that the two families will become in-laws, and it is even more impossible for Liu Wan to let it go.
So Liu Wan smiled and said, "Okay, let's dig up more bamboo shoots, dry them and store them."
By the way, Aunt Zhao, when I was selling barbecue meat in the town, I heard that there was a famine in the north last year, and it has not improved this year.
Now that spring is almost beginning, there has not been a drop of rain, and it is estimated that there will be a big drought this year, maybe the food will be quite tight.
We might as well stock up on some dry food now, like this spring bamboo shoots all over the mountains. ”
Zhao is not a stupid person, hearing Liu Wan say this, he was also vigilant, and said:
"It's really hard in the north, there are nine droughts in ten years, and I heard that many people are dying of hunger.
If we really come to the south, the food will definitely be tight, you are right, we will dig more bamboo shoots when we have time, and prepare more mountain goods on the mountain.
Besides, let's work together and listen to you sing is much more fun than doing housework at home. ”
The two of them talked and laughed, and dug up more than a dozen bamboo shoots in one afternoon.
Two small ones were also caught, and each dug up four bamboo shoots.
When they had almost dug up, the group decided to go down the mountain.
After returning home, Liu Wan began to pack up the bamboo shoots, first holding a kitchen knife and peeling the bamboo shoot shells under the eaves.
The bamboo shoot shell is very thick, layer after layer, and when the kitchen knife is sharpened, it makes a "click" sound, and the bamboo shoot shell falls off in response, which is a very pleasant thing for people with obsessive-compulsive disorder.
When Liu Wan was alone on the mountain, she actually secretly dug up more than a dozen bamboo shoots and hid them directly in the locker, which could be kept fresh anyway, so it didn't matter whether she was treated or not.
But some of the bamboo shoots have to be made into dried bamboo shoots, otherwise, if the spring bamboo shoots are taken out of season, they will definitely be suspected by others.
Liu Wan decided to make a bamboo shoot pork rib soup and a fried pork slices with bamboo shoots.
This time, the food quest was not triggered, probably because she had cooked bamboo shoots before.
After peeling all the bamboo shoots, cut them into four pieces on a cutting board, then put them in a pot to cook, scoop them up, and put them on a dustpan to cool.
After drying, the bamboo shoots are dried and can be stored for a long time.
Wang Li and Wang Xiao are busy finishing up the carpentry workshop, the beams have been erected, and the roof can be finished tomorrow with thatch.
Wang Jing looked at the woodworking workshop that was about to be completed, and his brow was overjoyed.
In the small yard of the farmhouse, some people are working, some people are feeding the chickens and ducks, the calves are mooing, lying in the grass pile on the side to eat grass, such a life is prosperous and full of vigorous vitality.
Liu Wan prepares to wrap bamboo shoots at night.
The bamboo shoot bun is not all bamboo shoots, and the filling has to be filled with diced fat meat to be delicious, and she thought about it together, and triggered the task of the food system: bamboo shoots and dried meat buns.
