Chapter 117: Overnight in the Mountains and Forests
"Grandpa, Zhuzhu is going up the mountain! Comfortable in the mountains! ”
The old man can't wait to pick the stars and the moon for his granddaughter, let alone go up the mountain.
He immediately responded, "Okay, go up the mountain, let's go up the mountain!" ”
The whole family got busy as they spoke, and soon tossed two baskets of things.
But the family can't be completely thrown away, so in the end, the old man took Tai Jizu, Yang Lihua, Tai Yonglu, and Tai Yongyue up the mountain.
At this time, the sky was already dark, and the old man didn't want to bother much, so he took everyone to the back of the village and went up to Dongshan.
As soon as Zhuzhu entered the mountains and forests, she went to wilt and became cheerful.
The Tai family was all happy, and no one saw a black shadow behind them......
If the mountains and forests during the day are like a vigorous teenager, then at night they are a beast that will pounce at any time.
Even though this place only belonged to the periphery of the rolling mountains and forests, and the old man also brought bows and arrows and firewood knives, the Tai family still didn't dare to go too far.
Fortunately, the valley where I used to come often used to come before is flat, sparsely wooded, and there are mountain springs.
At this time, it has become the best temporary camp for the Tai family.
Tai Jizu took out wood of different thicknesses, stumbles and other objects from the wicker basket, and quickly lit the bonfire without collecting firewood.
The bright light dispelled the heaviness of the night, and the warmth also isolated the still cold night wind.
Tai Yonglu and Tai Yongyue also slept in the mountains and forests for the first time, and they were so excited.
The two of them followed behind the adults, helping to carry the small tree that had been cut down and propping it up to make a temporary shack.
Yang Lihua hung the crockpot brought by the family on the bonfire to heat, and inside was Liu Dongniang's porridge.
Soon, the porridge bubbled and bubbled, and the fragrance wafted out.
Zhuzhu was held in her grandfather's arms and wrapped in a warm jacket.
She couldn't help but struggle to get off the ground, running around the campfire, and the slightest sickness was gone.
The old man breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly felt that it was wrong to build a new yard at home, and he knew that his granddaughter liked to go into the mountains so much, so he should build a wooden house in the mountains.
But it's not too late, and while the craftsmen haven't withdrawn yet, it's good to add a few more days to the project.
Zhuzhu didn't know her grandfather's plans, and she was following her brother to help.
The brothers pulled the little tree, and she also made a fuss to help, but she didn't have any strength, but she was tired and fell on the buttocks!
Tai Yonglu hurriedly stepped forward and hugged her and coaxed, "Sister don't cry, my brother will go to the next set in a while, put a rabbit on you, let's roast and eat!" ”
This reminded Zhuzhu, and she immediately clapped her chubby hand and shouted, "Roast rabbit, Zhuzhu wants to eat roast rabbit!"
The old man listened on the side, and it was too late to cover his granddaughter's mouth.
But this time I don't know what went wrong, the old man waited for a long time, and his grandchildren were already holding a bowl and drinking meat porridge, and still no rabbit took the initiative to send him to death.
He really didn't know whether to be happy or worried.
Fortunately, the rabbit was afraid that he would not taste good when he drank porridge like this, so before he could pick up the porridge bowl, he finally ran out of the woods and slammed into the root of the tree......
The old man secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
He said, well, there has never been a failure to make a wish for his granddaughter, but it is occasionally delayed......
Tai Jizu also had some guesses, but he still walked over with a firewood knife and tried several times before bringing the rabbit back.
Tai Yonglu and Tai Yongyue couldn't help but cheer.
"Ah, there are rabbits, rabbits!"
"Roast bunny, woo, roast bunny!"
Tai Jizu laughed and struck them twice, then instructed them to take a piece of burning wood to light it up, and go downstream to the spring to skin and wash the rabbit.
Within moments, the family gathered around the campfire, talking and drooling as they stared at the roasted and oily rabbit.
The snow-white rabbit meat is kissed by the flames, slowly turning brown, and occasionally the grease drips, falling into the bonfire and quickly turning into a wisp of green smoke, and the meat aroma is even stronger.
Before the three children's mouths were overflowing, the rabbit was finally roasted.
Tai Jizu tore off his two hind legs, one to the old man and the other to Zhuzhu.
The two front legs were given to Tai Yonglu and Tai Yongyue, and the couple simply ate a few bites of the meat on the rabbit's back, and the rest went into the stomachs of the two boys.
Old Man Tai ate slowly, thinking that his granddaughter was not enough to eat, and then handed over what he had in his hand.
I didn't want to, but there was a dog's barking on the path when I came.
Tai Yonglu and Tai Yongyue jumped up at that time and shouted in surprise.
"Sesame balls, they must be sesame balls!"
"The sesame balls are here!"
Sure enough, after a while, the black curly-haired sesame ball ran over, staring at the black bean's eyes and wagging its tail wildly.
There's a kick and tap behind it, followed by a big dark horse!
These two living treasures actually chased after them on their own initiative!
The three children were so happy, but Old Man Tai and Tai Jizu were worried.
The family is afraid that they think that this dog is lost......
Tai Jizu said, "Dad, I'll go back." Otherwise, the second brother, they are afraid that they will have to look for it everywhere! ”
Before the old man could speak, the sesame balls were already screaming, and they were still shaking their heads from time to time.
Zhuzhu hugged it, and said to her grandfather, "Grandpa, Sesame Ball said that the family saw them enter the mountain." ”
The old man was surprised and asked in a low voice, "Zhuzhu, can you understand the cry of the sesame ball?" ”
Zhuzhu blinked her eyes wide, very puzzled, and responded, "I don't understand, but that's what it says!" ”
The old man was confused, thinking that Sesame Ball and Da Hei were close to his little granddaughter, he simply regarded it as a tacit understanding.
Tai Jizu didn't need to go to the village one more time, so he led the big black horse to eat grass and drink.
Yang Lihua expanded the temporary shack again, laid out the cashmere mats and quilts brought by the family, and even moved a bonfire at the mouth of the shack.
Zhuzhu ate and drank to her heart's content, played with the sesame balls for a while, and kept yawning.
Yang Lihua settled the fat girl into the bed, and called out to the two naughty boys who were still excited, and put them to sleep together.
The sesame ball wagged its tail and squeezed into the shack, arching at the feet of Zhuzhu, barely nesting in Yang Lihua's arms.
As the night gets darker, the quieter the forest becomes.
The old man and Tai Jizu sat by the bonfire and talked quietly, and the old man Tai instructed his son, "Go back tomorrow and talk to the craftsmen, let's build a small cabin here."
"Zhuzhu likes to go into the mountains, and occasionally takes her over for a few days. If there are hunters who come and go to sleep, you can also borrow it. ”
Tai Jizu hurriedly nodded in response, "Okay, Dad, I'll tell the second brother tomorrow." This mountain forest has no owner, and there is no shortage of wood, but it takes a little labor. ”
"Then you can sleep first, and then take over my vigil in the middle of the night."
"Got it, Dad."
The father and son discussed it properly, and Tai Jizu leaned on the side of the shack and slept under a torn leather jacket.
The old man held the firewood knife, added a few wooden stumbling blocks to the fire, and then looked at the dark woods around him and clicked on the cigarette pouch and pot......
