The rules of the bamboo shoot digging contest are simple.

Xiaojia Village circles ten of the best growing bamboo mountains, and the contestants can bring hoes, shovels, and all kinds of tools to dig winter bamboo shoots.

(Except for weapons that are too lethal such as gunpowder, explosives, torpedoes, and flammable and explosives.) ）

It lasts for eight hours, from half past eight in the morning to half past four in the afternoon, with an hour to eat at noon.

The whole bamboo shoot banquet was prepared by Li Hongying and the villagers who did not participate in the competition, and it was prepared before the twelve.

The contestants went down the mountain to eat when they arrived.

After eating, whether to rest or go up the mountain non-stop to continue digging bamboo shoots, decide for yourself.

The prize for the first place in previous years was a wild boar.

The size varies, mainly depending on the luck of Xiao Guofu and the villagers' hunting team.

This year's first prize is a mystery prize sponsored by Xiao Cheng and Bai Lu.

Everyone was looking forward to it, and more than 200 people gathered in the square in front of the ancestral hall of Xiaojia Village, carrying baskets and sacks, holding tools, and their faces were full of excitement and eager to try.

Xiao Guofu spoke before setting off as the patriarch, instructing precautions, and Bai Lu was also enthusiastically pushed out by the Xiao family and said a few words of encouragement, and then beat the gong and shouted to start.

"Rush!"

"The first has a grand prize!"

"Gotta win this year!"

"This year's first place is not a wild boar, it is a mysterious prize sponsored by Brother Cheng and his sister-in-law! Come on! ”

There were more than 200 people in the entire square, except for Li Jianfeng and Wu You, all of whom scattered and rushed to the mountain!

Shoot up!

Luo Sixteen, Xiao Dazhuang, Xiao Wei and Shang Chuyao were waiting for Bai Lu, and Bai Lu was saying goodbye to her grandfather and grandmother.

"Lulu, the mountain road is steep, and in addition to bamboo, there are many thorny plants on the mountain, so pay more attention to safety."

"The little piglets raised at home have grown into big piglets, at the end of the year, you are busy, there is no time to come back, the pig killing banquet will be postponed to today, after digging the bamboo shoots, go down the mountain early, grandma will stew pork rib soup for you......"

"Okay." Bai Lu nodded obediently.

"Grandpa and grandma don't worry, we will go down the mountain early to eat when we dig up bamboo shoots, pork rib soup and whole bamboo shoot banquet are still waiting for me, cooked is much better than raw."

Grandpa and Grandma nodded with a smile, and watched Bai Lu, Xiao Wei and the others turn around and go up the mountain.

Li Hongying was sent directly to the foot of the mountain.

"Lulu, do you want to prepare a hearty lunch?" Bai Lu said that there would be distinguished guests at noon.

If the chicken, duck, fish and whole bamboo shoots feast was not rich enough, Li Hongying asked people to go to the river in the town to buy shrimp and crabs, although she was not sure if there were any, big or small, this was already the most sumptuous lunch she could think of.

Bai Lu shook his head lightly: "It's good to be the same as everyone, you don't need to be special, the ingredients are fresh."

"Okay, then you guys slow down."

"Goodbye, sister-in-law~" Li Jianfeng and Wu You also said goodbye to Bai Lu, the mountain they were going to was the mountain of Xiao Cheng's family, and they were on a different path from Bai Lu.

I can only say goodbye for the time being.

Bai Lu glanced at the plastic bag in Wu You's hand, and couldn't help but remind Li Jianfeng: "If you use a shovel or a hoe, we can all go to the same mountain."

"I don't want a hoe!"

Li Jianfeng looked disgusted: "That thing is too slow to dig bamboo shoots, it's better to blow up all of a torpedo!"

Luo Sixteen stared at his hand with a smile: "Don't blow yourself up."

"I'll blow you up first." Luo Sixteen took out a plastic bag.

Bai Lu's eyelids jumped wildly: "Okay, okay, let's go and blow it up...... Dig up your bamboo shoots! If it's too late, you won't be able to take the first place, where does the mountain know? ”

"Yes."

Just now, some villagers have taken Li Jianfeng and Wu You to see where Xiao Cheng's mountain is.

Li Jianfeng bowed his hand: "Then let's go~ Sister-in-law, goodbye, I'm going to blow up Xiao Cheng's mountain!"

Bai Lu: "......"

"Go, there are bamboo shoots in the ravine."

"I can also take the first place in the ravine valley!"

"Good luck."

The group parted ways at the foot of the mountain.

Xiao Dazhuang and Luo Sixteen carried hoes in front, and Xiao Wei followed Bai Lu and Shang Chuyao behind.

The wind blows through the bamboo forest, rustling, and the slender green leaves are blown off and covered on the ground, and the new leaves and old leaves, and the footsteps of walking through the mountains and forests pass lightly.

Luo Sixteen and Xiao Dazhuang found bamboo shoots.

"Sister-in-law, I'm going to dig winter bamboo shoots too."

Xiao Wei let go of his sleeves and ran to help with a small hoe.

Bai Lu and Shang Chuyao also took small hoes and looked for the spiky winter bamboo shoots nearby.

Looking for it, Bai Lu found that Shang Chuyao was watching Xiao Dazhuang digging bamboo shoots, and he watched it with relish.

"Would you like to help?"

Bai Lu laughed and said: "If you don't cheer and encourage, it will be difficult for Da Zhuang to win the first place!"

Shang Chuyao's face was full of surprise: "Aren't we digging bamboo shoots to be happy?"

"That's right......"

Before Bai Lu finished speaking, Shang Chuyao changed the topic: "Xiao Dazhuang seems to be weird today, talking to me is either looking east and west, or looking left and right.

"In short, he just doesn't look at me, and he doesn't talk much, but every time I ask him a question, he answers, and what's even more strange is that he didn't say what my mother said today, and he didn't say what my sister-in-law said."

Bai Lu leaned on the bamboo with one hand, his eyes flashed with a small light of wisdom, and stared directly at Shang Chuyao: "You shouldn't beat Da Zhuang last night, don't let people tell the truth?"

"How is that possible!" Shang Chu Yao denied it in a righteous manner: "I just broke your material."

"I don't remember the rest."

Bai Lu smiled coldly: "Do you remember breaking my news?"

"Shang Chu Yaoyao, I usually treat you well, but you betrayed me, it's too conscienceless!"

Shang Chuyao was stunned, and grabbed Bai Lu's shoulder very apologetically and shook her hard: "Lulu, haven't you woken up yet?" Didn't I explain to you in the morning, I can do anything if I drink too much, the betrayal is small, and if I drink two more glasses, I can tear down your house! ”

Bai Lu: "......"

What kind of explanation is this!?

Still in a daze after explaining, Bai Lu followed Shang Chuyao's line of sight and saw Xiao Dazhuang who was bending down and digging bamboo shoots.

Sure enough, people who work hard are the most attractive, both men and women.

"Yaoyao, do you want my mother to talk to my sister-in-law after I become strong, and become Yaoyao?"

Shang Chuyao watched Xiao Dazhuang digging bamboo shoots, he watched Luo Sixteen digging, watching Luo Sixteen digging, watching Xiao Wei digging, and Xiao Wei reacted after watching Xiao Wei: "What do you say?"

"How can Xiao Dazhuang be, no, how can I ...... Well, you go ahead. ”

Bai Lu laughed happily: "Da Zhuang is a good boy who is honest and good, whoever says it is right will listen to whomever he wants, if you tell him something he doesn't know, he will definitely take your words as the standard, and whoever is wrong will say whom."

"Really, fake." Shang Chuyao was skeptical: "How do I feel that you are fooling me."

"I don't believe you'll teach him to identify poisonous mushrooms." Bai Lu sincerely proposed.

got Shang Chuyao's decisive approval, and without saying a word, he ran to teach Xiao Dazhuang to distinguish poisonous mushrooms.

Roadside mushrooms were also plucked as samples.

Luo Sixteen and Xiao Wei looked at Xiao Dazhuang, who was shaving bamboo shoots and learning mushrooms from Shang Chuyao, and Xiao Dazhuang, who had studied very hard, looked back at Bai Lu in shock.

Bai Lu smiled and waved his hand, and just as he wanted to say something, a figure hurriedly rushed into the bamboo forest.

"Sister-in-law, the distinguished guest is here."
