Grandma Gao was in the hospital for three days before she could be discharged, but even if she was discharged, her spirit had not fully recovered.

When people get old, all aspects of the body begin to age, and all kinds of geriatric diseases will also be entangled, which is irresistible to manpower.

After being discharged from the hospital, Gao Mingcheng sent Grandma Gao, Gao Yuanjian and Maozi brothers to Gaojia Village, as for the Maozi brothers, Gao Mingcheng's statement to Gao Yuanjian was to invite them to work.

Gao Yuanjian looked suspicious, what kind of work can be done in the village in this winter?

But Gao Mingcheng didn't want to say more, and he didn't bother to ask.

After returning to Gaojia Village, Gao Mingcheng first sent Grandma Gao and Gao Yuanjian home, and then continued to drive to Niuweiling.

When you arrive at Niuweiling, you can rarely see the villagers here.

Gao Mingcheng's house is located at the foot of the mountain.

But a small number of people does not mean desolation.

There are vegetable fields in Qianmo, well-organized orchards, chickens pecking, loyal dogs to greet each other, and the sound of cattle and sheep resounding in the mountains.

There is really not much work that can be done in winter, Gao Mingcheng left the Maozi brothers here, mainly to find Maozi by avoiding Du Hongyu's people.

Gao Mingcheng's house is not big, just three main rooms, the middle is the hall house, the left is Gao Mingcheng's bedroom, and the right is empty, which is used as a warehouse.

But there is also a wooden bed here, which was moved from Gao Yue's own house when Gao Yue came to live in his house.

Now all you need to do is clean the room, spread the futon and quilt, and people can live here.

Maozi is quite industrious, and after Gao Mingcheng took them to see the house, he immediately went to fetch water and cleaned it up by himself.

They brought quilts, a change of clothes, and even some food.

Gao Mingcheng said: "In the next period of time, you two brothers will live in my house, and you can take some of the wind-blown meat stored in my house out to eat, and the vegetables in the vegetable field will also be eaten by you." ”

"You know how to read, right? I have some elementary school books at home, you can teach your brother to read and write, and if you are bored, find something to do on your own. I also have a radio for you. ”

"You usually live here, you can talk to the two families nearby, but it's best not to go to the old village, there are too many people there, and it is inevitable that the news will leak."

Mao Zi nodded again and again, indicating that he would not go to the old village.

This time he came to take refuge, but not to play, he committed something in the next county, and there were powerful ruthless characters looking for him, he couldn't wait to be a low-key person.

However, his younger brother Yangyang, who seemed quite curious about all this, kept staring at the dogs.

Yangyang had been bitten by a mad dog, but others were a little stunned, and they didn't know that they were afraid of dogs, but stared at the dog with a look of surprise, the two little black balls were not as vigilant as the big dogs, they were closer, wagging their little tails, and walking around in the crowd, but the black tigers were standing some distance away.

After Gao Mingcheng and Maozi explained, they found Zhang Chengyuan and Chen Dasong's two families and told them about the two Maozi brothers living in his house temporarily.

The problem of eating is solved by Maozi himself, but for other problems in life, Gao Mingcheng will help them if they can.

Chen Dasong said: "Since it is your friend, then you can rest assured, there are us people to help take care of it." ”

Gao Mingcheng nodded, and said, "If they are willing to help with the work, you can let them do it together." ”

"Okay."

After explaining clearly, Gao Mingcheng prepared to go into the mountains for a walk, planning to dig some winter bamboo shoots and see if he could get a few hares.

"Black Tiger, Elf, keep up!" Gao Mingcheng shouted and led the two dogs into the mountain with a high spirit.

"Brother Mingcheng, what are you doing in the mountains? Do you want me to help? When Mao Zi saw it, he hurriedly shouted loudly.

Gao Mingcheng said: "No need, you just take care of your brother at home, seeing that it's almost noon, you can cook lunch!" ”

"Well, that's fine." Maozi no longer insisted on following him into the mountain, but was ready to cook lunch.

Gao Mingcheng's location of firewood, rice, oil and salt in his house has already been told to him, and he is also allowed to use it casually.

Mao Zi washed the rice first, and after igniting the fire in the stove, he let his younger brother take care of the firewood, and he himself went to wash and cut vegetables.

Fried tofu needs to be served with garlic, so Mao Zi walked towards the vegetable field, Gao Mingcheng said, the nearby land belongs to Gao Mingcheng's family, and the vegetables in the field are left to him to pick.

Maozi plucked some garlic, pinched a handful of cabbage moss, and pulled another radish, and the dish was complete.

Next, he is ready to cook wind-blown meat and boiled radish, fried water tofu, and stir-fried cabbage moss!

When Mao Zi was busy with lunch, Gao Mingcheng had already entered the mountain, because he was going to dig some winter bamboo shoots, so he walked towards the mountain forest with bamboo.

"Black Tiger, Elf, go find the trail of the hare." Gao Mingcheng commanded, and the two dogs were extremely humane.

If you are active in the slopes of mountains and valleys, then you must hunt hares, and if you go deep into the mountains, then you must hunt wild boars.

The black tiger and the elf sniffed the scent left by the hare and led Gao Mingcheng to find it.

When there are hunting dogs, hunting can get twice the result with half the effort, hunting dogs can find traces of prey, and when Gao Mingcheng kills a hare, hunting dogs can also run over and bring the prey back.

When hunting in the mountains, Gao Mingcheng has always not used a gun, the movement of the gun is big, and he doesn't need it at all, if it is to fight wild boars, then a javelin is enough, and it is easier to fight hares, and the knife pinned to his waist can kill small animals such as hares and pheasants.

He likes this more primitive hunting behavior, and every time he has a catch, he feels more fulfilled.

In this daytime, the hares are not inactive, most of them hide in the caves, but the black tiger and the elf are not vegetarians, and they smell the smell and tear down the hare's home!

The rabbits in this mountain, Gao Mingcheng called them all hares, but in fact, there is a difference between rabbits and rabbits, some rabbits run very fast, with Gao Mingcheng's eyesight and accuracy, it is difficult to kill, and some rabbits are easy to kill.

If a biological expert is here, then it may be explained that some of these hares are native hares in China, which belong to the hares, which means that they live in the wilderness, they will not make holes, they run extremely fast, and the hind legs are very powerful, if the eagle is preying on the hare, but unfortunately kicked by the hare's hind legs, then the eagle's life may not be guaranteed.

The other part of the hares is the burrowing rabbit, the burrowing rabbit is an outsider, in ancient times, as a tribute into our country, and then some escaped, in the wild survival and breeding.

As for the specific dynasty that came in, there is still no particularly accurate answer.

Of course, Gao Mingcheng doesn't care about this kind of academic problem, he only needs to find the hare, aim, throw, and kill the target hare!

With the help of two dogs, one man and two dogs smashed three rabbit holes and hunted eight hares!

It's a good harvest!

Gao Mingcheng put the hare base together, and then said, "Call it a day!" I'm going to dig up winter bamboo shoots next! ”

Gao Mingcheng came with a hoe, he found a bamboo forest, and according to his own experience, he judged whether there were winter bamboo shoots on the bamboo whip from the growth of bamboo branches.

Digging spring bamboo shoots can be done by one person, but digging winter bamboo shoots, without experience, it is really not good!

Winter bamboo shoots do not grow out of the earth, they are hidden in the soil, you look at the soil surface is not traced, it is all up to experience to judge and find.

Gao Mingcheng dug up this small piece of bamboo forest, and dug up more than a dozen winter bamboo shoots, the big ones were two or three catties, and the small ones were only more than one catty.

Gao Mingcheng dug up a few more large winter bamboo shoots, and then he finished the work satisfactorily.

Shake open the bag you were carrying and put the bamboo shoots and the hare in the bag.

Packing things in a bag is much better than carrying a basket in a bamboo basket or something! The main thing is that the bag is lightweight, and it is also more convenient when traveling through the mountains.

"Black Tiger, Elf, gone!" When Gao Mingcheng was digging winter bamboo shoots, the black tiger and the elf did not gather around him, but played in the nearby forest, and Gao Mingcheng could see a bush shaking from time to time, and there was a small sound of breaking.

However, as soon as he shouted, the black tiger and the elf came out of the forest one after another, and the hair of the two dogs was stained with some dead branches and leaves, but the black eyes were full of vitality, and they were obviously extremely excited.

Gao Mingcheng hadn't gotten along with the two dogs for a long time, and looking at their energetic appearance, he also smiled and stretched out his big hand and stroked it fiercely.

"Let's go!" After being addicted to his hands, Gao Mingcheng carried the bag on his back and followed the two dogs down the mountain.

The trail is rugged and covered with dead branches and leaves, and between the fallen leaves, there are some tree seeds.

Gao Mingcheng saw a lot of soapberry seeds.

Soapberry is a deciduous tree, and now it is bare, leaving only one trunk standing on the hillside, but the soapberry seeds all over the ground are also a treasure.

The seed coat of soapberry is similar to dried longan, and this one has a cleaning function. And its seeds are round, which can be used to make beads and processed into bracelets.

Gao Mingcheng knows about soapberry, but he uses it less often, he now washes his hair, sometimes with tea, but most of the time it is convenient, and he washes it with shampoo and soap.

So he stepped on the soapberry mercilessly and strode down the mountain to go home.

When I got home, I immediately smelled the smell of food.

"Brother Mingcheng, you're finally back. If I don't come back, I'm afraid the food will be cold! Mao Zi greeted him with a smile and proudly displayed the meal he had prepared.

Maozi, who has no father and no mother, is actually a little expert in life, and he is quite good at housework such as cooking, laundry, and hygiene.

Gao Mingcheng put the bag down, glanced at the dishes on the table, and said with a smile: "It looks good." ”

"Maozi, call your brother to eat, if I don't come back next time, you can just leave me some food, don't wait for me." Gao Mingcheng said casually, went to wash his hands first, and then served a bowl of rice.

Seeing that he moved, Maozi and his younger brother ate together.

Maozi's craftsmanship is okay, and Gao Mingcheng is quite satisfied with what he eats.

After eating, Gao Mingcheng led the Maozi brothers to the chicken coop and went to see the beehives in the shed. The weather is not good today, the bees are not active, and only fly out of the hive when they eat sugar water.

"Brother Mingcheng, you have raised so many bees!" Mao Zi was quite stunned, although he had known Gao Mingcheng a long time ago, he was not very clear about Gao Mingcheng's family background.

Gao Mingcheng smiled, now that Chen Duofu has mastered the beekeeping skills, then a few more boxes of bees can be bred next.

The more bees you have, the more honey you produce.

Over the course of a year, you can earn tens of thousands of dollars just by selling bees.

After inspecting his own industry, Gao Mingcheng was ready to return to the county seat.

He left a small hare for the Maozi brothers, gave them a few small winter bamboo shoots, and then said, "My room is locked, you don't have to worry about it, and the rest of the place needs to be cleaned daily." ”

Mao Zi nodded in agreement.

Gao Mingcheng pulled some vegetables, and then drove the tractor back to the county.

Chen Dasong laughed and said, "Brother Maozi, do you know how to weave bamboo baskets?" If not, I'll teach you! After the fruits of this orchard come down, bamboo baskets are needed the most, so we should take advantage of the winter leisure to quickly weave more bamboo baskets. ”

Maozi really didn't know how to weave bamboo baskets, but he said he was willing to learn, and even his younger brother sat stupidly on a small bench and watched Chen Dasong teach them to weave bamboo baskets.

The bamboo basket is much larger than the bamboo basket, mainly for holding fruits, and after it is full, the fruit of a bamboo basket must have about fifty catties.

Next, Chen Dasong took Maozi to do some small work from time to time, and his reputation was to take him to familiarize himself with the environment.

Mao Zi also didn't expect that after living in the village, he would unlock several skills: weaving bamboo baskets, brooms and repairing farm tools!

Gao Mingcheng didn't know anything about Maozi's side, after he hid the Maozi brothers in Gaojia Village, he felt a lot more relieved, and then he only needed to communicate with the police station to see if there was anyone suspected of Du Hongyu.

In this atmosphere, Xiao Nian has quietly arrived!

Gaojia Village boasted that its ancestors had been in and out of Jinshi, and naturally it was the twenty-third year of the lunar month, and on the day of the new year, Gao Mingcheng and others did not rush back to the village, but spent it in the county.

At this time, the flavor of the New Year is still strong, even if it is a small year, every household is very happy, Gao Mingcheng also called a lot of beauty to buy a lot of good dishes, ready to eat a good meal.

Originally, Gao Guobing called Gao Mingcheng to go to his house for the New Year, but Gao Mingcheng refused.

If it was only his own family, it would definitely be over, but there are Gao Mingli and Gao Shufang here, and this is a small year, so naturally he has to spend it with his family.

The dishes of this night were extremely rich, chicken, duck and fish, as well as the hares and winter bamboo shoots that Gao Mingcheng got from the mountains two days ago.

On the second day of the new year, there were two rare customers in Gao Mingcheng's store.

"Wanwan! You're back? When she saw Deng Wanwan, many beauties almost didn't recognize her for a while, but fortunately, her eyesight was okay and she quickly recognized Deng Wanwan.

When Deng Wanwan left, she was still a delicate and cowardly little girl, but now, she is full of ability and has the taste of an urban beauty.

Deng Wanwan smiled and looked at many Mei and Gao Shufang, and glanced around at the Xinxin clothing store, it's really good, the people and things here are the same as before. (End of chapter)
