"What's that? The ginseng seeds are red and you have to pinch them back quickly, otherwise it will be easy to fall and not talk about it, and you will be swallowed by the civet sticks and rats. ”

Xu Cheng was in a hurry, so he chatted with Zhou Guilan.

The civet stick that Xu Chenghou said is actually a chipmunk, and it is also a kind of small squirrel.

There are several patterns on the back, so the locals call them civet sticks or chipmunks.

The chipmunk eats all kinds of nuts or seeds, and the ginseng seeds can't be eaten by it.

Don't look at this little thing, it's not big, but those two gills can hide things, and a few ginseng seeds are more than enough.

In addition to chipmunks, voles also steal ginseng seeds, and even some birds will steal ginseng seeds after they start to turn red.

In order to prevent the ginseng seeds from being harmed, most people get zinc phosphide and other rat poison mixed with melon seeds or peanuts when the ginseng seeds have just turned red, and sprinkle them on the surface of the pond to poison the rats or chipmunks.

When the ginseng seeds are completely red, they are quickly picked back.

But the Xu family is busy, and no one cares about pinching ginseng seeds, can Xu Chenghou not be in a hurry?

"Grandpa, if it doesn't work, I'll go up the mountain with my sister to pinch ginseng seeds, right?

My parents are too busy, and we can do this job. Xu Haiyuan saw that his grandfather was in a hurry, so he proposed.

"Huh? Are you going? No, no, you can't mess around.

Last time you went up to work in the mountains, hey, I'm scared at home, don't go. ”

As a result, when Zhou Guilan heard this, she hurriedly waved her hand, no, you can't let the children go up the mountain anymore.

"Milk, it's okay, this time we don't go into the woods, we just work in the field, and we definitely don't run around.

That, Uncle Zhao, didn't they also have a ginseng place on the Kaifeng side? It seems that my second uncle's family also has ginseng land over there, right?

That's just right, together, we don't run around. ”

If Xu Haiyuan hadn't watched his family be busy like this, he really couldn't take care of it, so he wouldn't care.

School is about to start, and he wants to learn more from his teacher.

Xu Chenghou pondered, what his grandson said also made sense, the family is really busy, how can I do it?

"It's okay, I'll follow, and then call Xiaobo Xiaotao and the others.

The second child's mallet is less, only twenty zhang, and we have pinched back all the ginseng seeds in a few days. ”

Xu Chenghou has spoken, what else can Zhou Guilan do? "Then wait for your son and daughter-in-law to come back, and tell them."

In the evening, Xu Shiyan and Su Anying went home, and Xu Chenghou and Xu Haiyuan mentioned the matter of pinching ginseng seeds.

Xu Shiyan sighed, "If you don't do it, you can only do what my father says."

Oh, everything has come together for a while, who can think that this foreign customer suddenly came over and said that he was coming to investigate.

This day, I accompanied them to visit the water plant, water source, and processing plant.

Ay? They also have to climb Changbai Mountain.

I said let's just go up to the west slope, but they didn't agree, so they had to go up the north slope.

Tomorrow I will accompany them over, I have to live in Erdaobaihe for a day, and climb the mountain the day after tomorrow. ”

Don't look at them growing up at the foot of Changbai Mountain, to be honest, unless they are engaged in side jobs or hunting up the mountain, ordinary people have never climbed Changbai Mountain, and no one regards it as a great thing.

Since August 83, the old man climbed Changbai Mountain and wrote the inscription himself, Changbai Mountain began to become famous.

I don't know how this foreign merchant knows, I have to go to the north slope, to see the waterfall, to see what to see the Chacha River, and to see the autographed inscription.

This autumn is already busy, and I can't say that I won't accompany it.

Lin Qiyue said that he asked Xu Shiyan and Li Chengrong to accompany the foreign businessmen with their translators to the north slope.

"Dad, are you going to climb Changbai Mountain? Oops, I want to go too. ”

When Xu Haiyuan heard that he was going to climb the mountain, his eyes immediately widened, and his eyes were full of anticipation.

"Next year, next year Haiqing and Huihui will be older, find a good weather, and our family will go climbing."

Dad hasn't been there either, so this time it's a front stop, okay? Xu Shiyan touched the top of his son's head and said comfortingly.

Xu Shiyan went to Wangchi in his last life to gather cattle hair, and also went to the alpine tundra belt to plane rhodiola.

But if it is said that he has never been to Changbai Mountain, let alone the north slope.

But his daughter, who has been a tour guide, often goes to the north slope of Changbai Mountain, and will tell Xu Shiyan about some of the things she has seen on the mountain when she comes back.

In fact, Xu Shiyan also wants to know how mountaineering is different from mountaineering in a few decades.

When Xu Haiyuan heard this, he nodded, "Well, then next year." ”

Children are easily satisfied, and since Dad said next year, then go again next year.

In this way, it was decided to pinch the ginseng seeds tomorrow.

Xu Shiyan called the farm and told Xu Shi'an that Xu Shi'an would take his two sons tomorrow and come over to work with Xu Chenghou on the mountain.

It just so happened that Zhao Jianjian, Huang Shengli and several others didn't pinch the ginseng seeds, so they simply discussed it and went for a day.

At about six o'clock in the morning of August 16, Xu Shi'an drove the car from the farm.

Xu Chenghou and his grandchildren all changed their working clothes, brought water and a lot of food, and planned to go up the mountain to pinch ginseng seeds.

Before he could get into the car, Sun Yu, who was from Sun Xiaofeng's house next door, came out and shouted at Xu Haiyuan.

"Haiyuan, do you want to bring your Lai Pi Ghost today? Or take it with you. ”

I don't know if Sun Yu is joking, or if he really wants to take the Lai Pi ghost.

"Be quiet, be quiet, let it hear." When Xu Chenghou heard this, he was so frightened that he hurriedly waved his hand.

"We're going to work today to pinch ginseng seeds, and we don't go into the forest, what are we doing with it? You have to bother taking care of it. ”

What are you kidding, this is serious work to do, it's not the same as the previous time when I was weeding, and I must not take the Lai Pi Ghost to make trouble.

If it hears it, it has to follow it.

Xu Haiyuan smiled when he saw his grandfather like that, "Grandpa, you don't have to be afraid, the Lai Pi Ghost is lazy today."

Just before we went out, my sister ran to look for the Rypi Ghost and asked him if he wanted to go up the mountain with us.

Rypi didn't even pay attention to her, rolled up his big tail, turned over and went back to sleep. ”

As soon as he remembered the situation just now, Xu Haiyuan wanted to laugh.

After getting up in the morning and packing up her things, Xu Jinping said, go up the mountain today, or go and ask the Lai Pi Ghost if he wants to follow.

Let it also go out for a stroll and relax.

When Xu Haiyuan heard this, he hurriedly stopped him, and said that they were going to work, and they couldn't take the Lai Pi ghost with them.

As a result, Xu Jinping didn't listen, so she had to go to the ghost Laipi.

Xu Haiyuan was originally quite worried, if the Lai Pi ghost really followed him up the mountain, what if something went wrong again?

Who would have thought about it, Xu Jinping shouted several times and told it to go up the mountain, but the Laipi ghost didn't even open his eyes and didn't look at them.

The little thing turned over, covered with a big tail, and slept soundly.

When Xu Chenghou heard this, he laughed, don't you want to say that this ghost is about to become a refinement?

"Well, then it's nothing, let's go up the mountain and work.

The ginseng seeds had to be scrubbed quickly, and they were dried quickly while the weather was good recently. ”
