The rain outside the window has been falling, crackling~ Slowly the wind direction began to change, and the house was much quieter when the heavy rain did not hit the window.

Wang Yuan fell asleep on the kang with his coat covered, and after a long time, he heard a chaotic voice, and couldn't help waking up in a daze.

It turned out that Zhang Qian, the younger daughter-in-law, came over.

She has neat short hair, long thin cheeks, and very bright eyes, and she has been pregnant for several months, but her belly is not very big.

"Big brother woke up and doesn't know me?" Zhang Qian smiled beautifully.

Beautiful is beautiful, but the fight is also ruthless, because the two families are separated by a cane, so Zhang Qian and Wang Meng can hear it clearly every time they fight, and they are screaming, the same as fighting wolves.

"When did you come here?"

"I just came over for a while, or your color TV is good-looking, people are all color, not like my gray and white TV, everything is gray."

Li Yan and Zhang Qian picked up the beans, and they picked them up quite quickly, and soon they finished picking up the beans in a dustpan.

chatting casually, Wang Yuan also put his coat on the sleeping little girl next to him, and then reached out and stroked two big white cats lying on Li Yan's lap.

"Meow~"

The fat white cat looked very warm, she screamed softly, stood up and stretched, and then jumped on the windowsill, and squatted there to watch the rain outside the window, not knowing what she was thinking.

"Mengzi is still working on the forest farm?"

"Yes, he said that their leaders are quite optimistic about him, and he may mention it after a while, and he will be able to get more than a dozen yuan a month at that time."

Zhang Qian's tone was full of happiness, with an extra dozen yuan every month, she would be able to do a lot more.

"That's good, by the way, how much does Mengzi earn every month now?"

"72 yuan 5, I also send something during the New Year's holidays, and sometimes I give money, this is not last year's New Year, I sent 100 yuan, oh he has a low level, and some old workers get more than 200 yuan."

"That's pretty good."

Zhang Qian played for more than an hour before leaving, and when she left, Li Yan also asked her to take some beans with her, so that she could go back to raw bean sprouts.

Because of the dark clouds, it gets dark very early.

Li Yan went to the kitchen to cook, and Wang Yuan woke up the sleeping little girl: "Little girl, wake up, sleep again after eating, now I sleep too much and I won't be sleepy after eating."

"Oh, it's getting dark?"

The little girl got up from the kang, and the big white cat rubbed her with her head.

Wang Yuan went to the kitchen to cook with Li Yan, clanging~ Occasionally, the sound of hot oil sounded, and the little girl herself played with the big white cat on the kang, giggling from time to time.

Soon after, dinner was made, and the little girl was called to serve it together, and soon the three of them sat around the kang table and ate.

"The fried meat with fungus is delicious."

The little girl was gulping down the fried meat with fungus, and there was a little grease stain on the side of her mouth.

"These fungus were found after the rain last time, so let's get up early tomorrow and go to find the fungus together." Li Yan smiled and served vegetables to the little girl.

"Looking for fungus? Yes, yes. ”

There was nothing to say all night, and the next day the little girl woke up very early, and when she woke up, she made all kinds of noise to find the fungus, Wang Yuan got up and got angry, and reached out to play her brain.

The little girl was startled, and hurriedly hid behind Li Yan for protection: "Sister-in-law, save me!"

"Okay, it's going to be noisy early in the morning, don't make trouble, get dressed and let's go find fungus."

Li Yan dressed the little girl, and then the three of them left the house and started looking for it directly from their own cane.

The three of them began to search along the side of the cane, and soon found a large patch of fungus.

The wild fungus is brown and a little transparent, and the layers are like small ears, large and small, and the three of them only pick up the big ones.

"Second brother and second brother, come on, come quickly, there are big fungus over here."

"Come on, come on, these things grow on basswood."

"It's a lot, these are enough to make a big plate of fungus fried meat."

After the three of them finished looking for their own house, they went directly to their mother's yard to look for it, and their father walked out with his clothes on his clothes and helped them pick them up.

Mom is cooking, hula hula~ The sound of pulling the bellows can be heard clearly outside, and the smoke of birds and birds comes out of the chimney, which is blown by the cold wind and fills the whole village.

The smell of fireworks filled the air.

Soon her sister Wang Qing also came out of the house, and she was in her third year of high school when school started, and she was nervous, so although it was summer vacation, she studied late every day.

When I woke up in the morning, I still had big black circles under my eyes.

Wang Yuan stood next to the cane and chatted with her: "Xiaoqing, don't be too tired, you should rest, if your body is tired, you won't be able to pass the exam."

"I know."

Wang Qing felt that she still didn't work hard enough in her freshman and sophomore years of high school, so she regretted it a little.

It's a pity that the past time is like flowing water, and she can't come back, so she can only work hard to really get into a good university.

In the morning, my mother cooked some tender rice in the pot, just gave Wang Yuan and his family some, and returned home with the fungus they picked up, and the two of them hurriedly cooked and ate.

There was some rice left over from last night, just in time to make egg fried rice.

After eating, Wang Yuan took a golden corn and gnawed on it:

"Swallow, taste this corn, it's so fragrant! The more you chew, the better it tastes! ”

"Mm-hmm, I'll eat half of it."

Li Yan directly broke a corn in half, and then ate the sharp part.

"It's delicious, let's go peel some corn, shall we? Boil a pot and eat. ”

"It's okay, or let's cut it another day, there must be a lot of mushrooms on the mountain this rainy day, let's go pick the mountain."

Wang Yuan Ka Ka Ka ~ quickly finished gnawing a piece of corn, and then threw the corn pot to the dog.

The big wolf caught the corn pulp as soon as he poked out his mouth, and then the sharp dog teeth bit the corn pulp, and he ate it vigorously.

Wild mushrooms are very delicious, and the excess mushrooms can also be dried into dried mushrooms, which are very good ingredients after the snowfall.

Li Yan also nodded in agreement, so after eating, the two changed their clothes, carried a basket with a shotgun, locked the door and set off.

There are a lot of branches on the mountain, and you may even tear your clothes when you scratch them, so there is no need to wear particularly good clothes.

The three dogs followed in a bouncing manner, and they liked to go into the mountains the most.

There are really a lot of people who go to pick mushrooms along the way, and they have met the third uncle and the third aunt, Aunt Yue and Feng Hui.

However, everyone's destination is different, so they didn't get together, and it is better to disperse the personnel for mountain mining, after all, there are very few mountain treasures in a place.

"Chirp~"

After entering the forest, the sound of birdsong is endless, only the sound of it is not seen, and a sense of ethereal and distant ripples.

Li Yan likes to pick mountains very much, because there is a feeling of picking up treasures for nothing without spending money:

"There are so many birds, when we were young, we used to make slingshots with valve cores to shoot birds, and we can beat a lot of birds."

"Yo~ You still hunted birds when you were a child?"

Wang Yuan and his wife walked in the forest, chatting as they walked, saying that it was actually semi-playful in fact.

"That's not it, the birds that come back will be fed to the cats, and the big yellow cat in my house will be fed to the old fat and fat."

Li Yan recalled the interesting story when she was a child, with a smile on her face, but soon a touch of loneliness appeared on her pretty face:

"It's a pity that I don't know what the big yellow cat ate outside, it may be a mouse that made someone else die, and when he came back, he poured foam, and died in less than half a day.

My brother cried so badly that my father beat him up. ”

Speaking of her brother being beaten, Li Yan almost laughed, okay, it's really her own sister.

The big fat cat that had been raised for many years died, which was really sad, so the two quickly changed the topic.

As he walked, he soon found Hericium erinaceus under the roots.

Wang Yuan broke off the white mushroom and smelled a moist umami smell: "Some people say that this mushroom looks like a monkey's head, why don't I see that it looks like a monkey's head, it looks more like a white cotton hat."

"When you say that, it's really a bit like that."

Li Yan found a clump of elm mushrooms, pieces of elm mushrooms stacked together in a very bright color, she glanced at Wang Yuan while picking mushrooms:

"This mushroom is so yellow."

"You pick mushrooms, you pick mushrooms, see what I'm doing?"

"Oh, don't make trouble, don't make trouble, pick the mountains well."

Suddenly, three dogs barked a few meters to the right.

"Wangwang~"

Wang Yuan hurriedly took off the shotgun from his back as quickly as he could, and rushed over with the gun in his hand.

"Xiaoyuan is waiting for me, what's the matter?"

"It's spicy strips."

"Spicy strips?" Li Yan hurriedly followed, and then found that it was a snake.

Hiss~

The snake was about a meter long, blue-gray, coiled up and spitting letters, its cold eyes full of vigilance.

"Wangwang~"

"Alright, okay, don't scream." Wang Yuan picked up the dirt and threw it at the snake, and the snake fled in ashes.

"Fortunately, I found it early, and if I let him take a bite, I would be guilty."

The two continued to pick the mountain, and after two hours, most of the baskets were filled with mushrooms, and they found a clearing left after logging, and the two sat on the stump of the tree to rest for a while.

"I didn't bring a watch, what time is it?"

"It's almost 10 o'clock."

"Then let's go back, it will take a lot of time on the road." Li Yan sat on the top of the tree stump and wiped the sweat from her forehead with her hands.

There were many tree heads and branches thrown by the villagers around, and she couldn't help but feel pity when she saw it:

"These branches are so burning, it's a shame to throw them here."

In this era, the mountains have not been closed, and the forest resources are very rich, so most of the villagers are very picky, even if they burn firewood, they only need the body of the tree, not the head of the tree.

2k

Even if the tree has only a small knot, it will be completely discarded, and it is not even worthy of fire.

Only some special people, such as Wang Yuan's family, who used to be half-wasted, or Li Yan's family, who ran away with strong labor, will like to pick up branches that others don't want to burn.

That way, you don't have to go through the trouble of cutting down trees.

The two rested for a while, drank the last bit of water from the canned bottle, and then planned to go down the mountain.

Suddenly.

The big wolf yelled again not far to the right.

"What's the matter, do you see the snake again? it, wild boar! Wang Yuanmao leaned over and glanced to the right, just in time to look at a wild boar.

The wild boar is covered in brown fur, and the right belly is still stained with some palm oil and mud.

The wild boar was 80 catties, which was not too big, and when he saw Wang Yuan, he didn't know how to run and stood there in a daze.

"Hey, the little thing is not small."

Wang Yuan raised his gun and was about to aim, but the wild boar pulled out his legs and ran backwards, and some of the bushes he hit shook violently.

Bang~

The bullet shot out and did not hit the wild boar, Wang Yuan put down the basket and chased it directly, and the three hunting dogs had already rushed out like sharp arrows.

"Swallow, I'll catch a wild boar and come back for you to eat."

"Slow down, I don't eat wild boar."

Li Yan was anxious, and finally simply put down the basket and ran forward closely following Wang Yuan's footsteps.

"Wang~"

The second wolf was the first to catch up with the wild boar, and as soon as he jumped, he pounced on the wild boar's back, opened his mouth and bitten, and instantly the wild boar's back was scratched by sharp dog teeth A few blood marks.

That is, the dog is not good at mouthing, otherwise it will not be a few blood marks, and I am afraid that it will be able to bite off a piece of meat.

"Wei'er!

”

At the moment of life and death, the ferocity of the wild boar was also completely stimulated, and the dog was thrown off with a flick, and after turning his head, he directly accelerated and bang~ directly knocked the two wolves into a heel.

"Wang~"

The big wolf bit directly into the boar's hind legs, and its fangs pierced the flesh, and blood splattered instantly.

The three wolves pounced on the boar's neck, intending to kill it with one blow.

"Wei'er!

”

After the wild boar rolled around to avoid the big wolf and the second wolf, he went directly into the bushes on the right, which were too dense and the branches were all put together.

The wild boar was not afraid of the pain of hitting the branches, and used all the strength of the milk to rush directly.

The wild boar is a reckless escape, and the three dogs are just hunting, so the dogs are very slow to pass through the bushes, and slowly they can't catch up with the wild boar.

chased and escaped, and soon ran for two or three kilometers, but the distance not only did not get closer, but became farther and farther.

"There are so many of these little trees, and there are so many small holes in the ground."

When Wang Yuan ran past a stone stone panting, he was suddenly attracted by a touch of red, turned his head to take a closer look, and found that it was actually two ginseng!

Yes, not one, it's two!

And one is five leaves, and the other is six!

"Damn, what kind of luck is this! It's really ginseng!

”

There are too many shrubs here, and the villagers usually don't come here at all, plus the right side of the two ginseng plants is a large stone more than two meters high, and there are a lot of wild grasses on the left, so it's really good to hide.

If Wang hadn't walked by at close range, he really wouldn't have found them.

I put the thumb of my right hand and the fingertips of my index finger together, put it in my mouth and whistled directly, and the sound was sharp and loud:

"Woo~"

This is to call the hunting dogs back, a small wild boar less than 100 catties, nothing in front of the two ginseng plants, the most important thing now is to carry the ginseng back.

"Mallet!"

"Alright, I'll carry you back right away." Wang Yuan took out two pieces of red rope from the space and tied them to the poles of the two ginseng plants.

The three dogs quickly came back from the bushes, wagging their tails, but the dogs' eyes were full of doubt.

They don't understand why they don't chase the pig anymore, they still want to eat pork.

"Alright, alright, we have more important things to do." Wang Yuan touched the heads of several dogs, calming their restless emotions.

There was a sound of footsteps behind him, and when he looked back, he found that his wife Li Yan was panting.

"Xiaoyuan, where's the pig?"

"The pig is gone."

"Ah, why didn't the dog chase it? It's really for nothing that I raised these three stupid dogs, and I won't give them meat in the future. Li Yan had long felt that the dogs were eating too well, and now she finally found a reason to cut back on their food.

The tails of the three dogs didn't shake much, and they looked at Wang Yuan pitifully.

"Haha, it's me who won't let them chase it."

Wang Yuan put his hands on Li Yan's shoulders and pushed her to the side of the big stone stone: "Don't waste time on wild boars, see what this is??"

Li Yan looked around with a puzzled face, and soon saw the two ginseng trees, and instantly a pair of apricot eyes stared at her in shock: "Mom, it's ginseng!"

"Yes, it's ginseng! Rather, one is five leaves and the other is six! ”

"I'm dripping God, why is there ginseng here? Are they going to run? Hurry up and dig them out, let's get out of ......."

Li Yan, who was excited, didn't know where to put her hands and feet, squatted down and touched the ginseng leaves for a while, and then stood up and looked around to see if there were any other ginseng around.

After a while, Wang Yuan calmed her emotions, and then asked her to go home to get deer bone chisels, shovels, sickles, red cloths, matches, etc., and when she came back, she would carry the ginseng.

For safety, Wang Yuan asked her to go back with three dogs.

The reason why Wang Yuan didn't go back was because there was a lot of noise just now chasing wild boars, and during this time, there were many people picking mountains, releasing mountains, and pressing mountains, and he was worried that someone would come to check.

If Li Yan is left here alone, and a few old men come over and see a beautiful girl here alone, and there are two valuable ginseng trees next to her, it is really possible to have bad intentions.

Rural people are simple, but it is not that there is no evil in their hearts, and sometimes it is more direct and cruel to do evil.

Li Yan trembled with excitement, her heart was beating Dongdongdong~, it seemed that she was about to jump out of her mouth, she took the three dogs back home as fast as possible, and then looked for a few things that Wang Yuan said.

In the yard next door.

Zhang Qian was wearing gray labor cloth clothes, and was sifting sifting sand with a sieve, and when she gave birth to a child after a while, she would let the child sleep on the sand fried in a big iron pot.

This era was not as developed as later generations, and many children had to sleep on the sand.

"Sister-in-law, what are you looking for in a hurry?"

"Oh nothing, where did you dig up the sand?"

Li Yan coped without saying a word, put all the things she found into a basket, and then walked out with the basket on her back.

"I dug it up over there." Zhang Qian watched Li Yan lock the door and leave, and instantly frowned and muttered: "This is going to Gaha?" Found a treasure in the mountains? ”

What neither Li Yan nor Zhang Qian noticed was that on a hill nearly a kilometer to the east, two men, one fat and one thin, were standing there.

The tall and thin man looked at Wang Yuan's house with binoculars, and clearly saw Li Yan leaving home.

"Fatty, our chance seems to have come."

"Really? Groove,I've been waiting for a week, and I've finally found a chance.,I'm done and hurry up.,I'm about to let the mosquitoes bite me to death in the past few days.。 ”

The breeze blew, the leaves shook, and soon the fat and thin men were no longer on the hill.

No one knew where they went, and no one knew why they were targeting Wang Yuan.

……

Li Yan ran all the way into the mountains and forests with the basket on her back, her mouth was dry, her legs were sore, and her feet were numb, and she finally returned to Wang Yuan's side: "Xiaoyuan, you brought back everything you wanted."
