Chapter 177: Cutting down trees
Yan Yu had to follow her father into the mountain.
The cat was held by her.
Yan Lao Er couldn't, so he had to take her with him.
Sanbao was led by Li Xuemei to work on the ten acres of land near the village.
At the moment, the farm is busy, and it will be strange to take a cow into the mountains.
The beam wood that Qi Wu found was a cedar tree.
It is tall and straight, and the thickness is suitable, too.
Qi Da carefully put Yan Yu down, and Yan Lao Er looked at her speechlessly.
If his daughter wants to coax anyone, if she wants to coax her, she doesn't want to pour money out like money.
Uncle Qi, are you tired, let me go by myself...... Uncle Qi, you are really tall...... Uncle Qi, you walk fast and steadily...... Uncle Qi, you didn't sweat, I still want to wipe your sweat...... Uncle Qi...... Uncle Qi...... Uncle Qi......
Her Uncle Qi carried her all the way.
Yan Yu ran over with a grin, and his two arms stretched out to hug a tree, "Dad, how much do you think I still have to hug?" β
Yan Lao Er looked over and said, "Go a little further, and you'll be able to get started." β
Yan Yu blushed and worked hard.
Her father laughed and said, "No, you have to grow for another two years, and your arms are not long enough." β
Yan Yu withdrew his arm and grinned.
She knew that her father was jealous, but her father was also easy to coax, entertain his relatives in colorful clothes, make him happy, and he could pass anything.
Qi Wu pointed out to them the mark he had made, and said, "I found all those who had this mark." β
Yan Lao Er nodded and said, "Okay, then let's do it, and the girl should stay away." β
"Okay!" Yan Yu happily agreed, "Dad, I'll play nearby, don't go far." β
"Okay, you can play." Yan Lao Er rest assured, there are cats and cats following.
The cat squatted in Yan Yu's backpack, revealing a small head.
Before coming, Li Xuemei specially instructed it to take good care of Yan Yu.
This time the cat is very well-behaved and never leaves.
Everything in the mountains is pristine and the road is difficult.
Especially this one, there should be very few people coming, the thick fallen leaves on the ground, layer by layer by the land melted, still stubbornly leaving traces of its visit.
Yan Yu walked very carefully, and only when he stepped on it did he know whether he stepped on it or stepped on it.
DuangββDuangββ
Yan Yu turned around and saw that Fifth Uncle Qi had already started cutting down trees.
Uncle Qi also put on a posture.
According to the discussion of the four people, two trees were cut down at a time, and they could not transport them down the mountain if there were more.
"Cats, are there any wild things around here?" Yan Yu turned his backpack around and carried it to the front.
The cat nodded, the range of 'nearby' is too large, and there are many wild things.
Yan Yu asked, "Are there any hares?" "Are there any chickens?" "Are there any wild boars?" β¦β¦
The cat kept nodding.
There's everything in the mountains, aren't you happy?
Yan Yu is so happy!
Wouldn't that save money on meat!
"There's a water source too, right? In which direction? β
The cat stretched out its little paws and paws to point it out to her.
Yan Yu smiled contentedly.
Diverting water for irrigation, diverting water from rivers, is actually not as good as diverting water from the mountains.
The higher the terrain on the mountain, it is actually easier to divert water.
She wanted to go into the mountains to feel whether the slope was enough, how dense the forest was, and whether the mountain roads here were easy to walk.
There are many things that are far less intuitive than what you have seen with your own eyes.
Yan Yu didn't plan to go to the water source to check.
Because her fifth uncle and uncle Qi are really good at cutting trees.
This will be done, and the two cedar trees will have almost been cut down.
Yan Lao Er beckoned her: "Girl, come here." β
Yan Yu responded, and hurriedly ran to her father and Fourth Uncle Qi, two big and one small standing in a good position.
Qi Wu and Qi Da raised their feet back and forth and kicked the big tree to the side.
The branches and leaves scraped against each other, and the two big trees fell with a bang.
Startled a crowd of birds.
Qi Da and Qi Wu cut down the branches that were in the way.
Yan Lao Er and Qi Si gathered these branches into a pile and put them aside first.
Several people discussed it again and decided to let Qi Da and Qi Si carry a piece of wood down the mountain first.
Leaving Qi Wu and Yan Lao Er to continue cutting trees on the mountain.
What Yan Lao Er could do was to tie up those cut branches neatly.
Qi Wu continued to attack the cedar tree in his photo.
The slash was very hard, and his eyes were shining.
One big tree after another fell, and Yan Lao Er was busy, and his hands never stopped.
"Qi Wu, rest, rest first, there are so many, when do we have to carry it." Yan Lao Er couldn't stand it anymore and shouted to stop.
It's easy to cut down trees, but it's hard to lift them.
These trees grow too tall and walk sideways through the forest, not very easy to turn.
Qi Wu smirked, carrying an axe to remove the wood he had chopped down.
Smooth out all the branches and forks.
Yan Yu was also on the side to help.
It's inconvenient for her to drag the big ones, but the smaller ones can be picked.
Qi Da and Qi Si ran back and forth a few more times.
From the first one, to the next three.
On the last trip, Qi Da and Qi Si pushed two carts to stack the sorted branches.
The group descended the mountain.
Just in time for lunch.
There is Rong Mama Zhang Luo's meal, and Yan Lao Er is much more relaxed.
Just come back from work and serve the bowl directly.
Not to mention, it feels good to be able to eat hot and ready-made food at home.
Mama Rong's cooking skills have nothing to say, although they are all simple farmhouse meals, they taste very good.
Just look at Master Lu and the others, the food is fragrant, and when it is time to eat, they don't need to be greeted by anyone, they just come over by looking for it.
Yan Lao Er filled his stomach and greeted the Qi brothers.
The latter had to continue to go up the mountain to cut wood, and he kept in mind the number of days, and today he went to the brick factory in Yongning to see if he could pull some bricks back.
Yan Yu didn't follow anymore, and honestly followed her mother to the ground.
The ten acres of land near the village have not many weeds and many stones.
Especially small stones that are not big.
Several people carried baskets on their backs and squatted in the ground to pick.
Li Xuemei was arranged by Mama Rong to hold the grass and was able to stand.
Yan Yugan had to stand up and move after a while, stomping his feet, and twisting from side to side.
Four iron ran with five iron.
"Yan Xiaoer, why don't you ask us to help your family work?" Sitie asked.
Yan Yu blinked.
"Every family is cleared, and you are not idle!"
"The master said that we can just pick stones, my family's land is finished, and you will also choose it for your family, will you give us a share of work?" The four irons came with a goal.
Wutie was still small, and his mind was more straightforward, so he opened his mouth and said directly: "Yes, we will help you work, earn points for fragrant pancreas, and use them for your mother and aunt." β
The two children listened to their mother's muttering in private, working every day, smelly sweat, especially close to the river, and convenient for water.
But let them exchange some worthless things like before, they are not so thick-skinned.
It has been rumored before that if the Yan family's fragrant pancreas are put in the store, they can be sold for eight dollars of silver!
The fourth and fifth irons also have to be washed every day, looking at the smaller and smaller fragrant pancreas, I suddenly thought of the work that Yan Xiaoer had said before.
Isn't it okay to exchange labor for pancreas?
