Chapter 173: Weak Heart
Although I still wanted to explore more, everyone looked at the time and had to return first.
When they returned to the original place, the three of them not only picked a lot of wild vegetables and some medicinal herbs nearby.
Even the calamus that has been picked has been preliminarily processed in order to be able to take more away.
From afar, seeing a group of people coming back, Dad Fu beckoned happily, and before a few people from Fuyun came closer, they smelled a strong fragrance.
Hurriedly looked in the direction where the fragrance wafted from, and happened to see his brother-in-law Liu Guibei grilling the fish with his hands empty, and the big leaves picked from the woods next to him were neatly grilled.
The fish are obviously selected and not very large, but it is more convenient to grill them at this time.
A few people didn't need to be greeted again, so they immediately went over and picked up one each.
The fish, which is about the length of a palm, is grilled to the point of being charred on the outside and tender on the inside, and it is gluttonous......
There are several crucian carp and many bones, so you have to be careful when eating.
By the time a group of people eats two fish on average, the slightly smaller fish in the fish that were originally caught have been consumed.
However, Liu Guibei hadn't stopped grilling the fish yet, and on the large leaves, there were already a few grilled fish that were obviously bigger than what they had just eaten.
These are all going to be taken to the top of the slope for Liu Xiumei and them to eat, and some are going to be taken home for the children.
There are advantages to living in the city, but there are also countless disadvantages.
By the time the good fortune came, they reached the bottom of the slope again, and more than an hour had passed.
A few people were about to climb up, and they found that there was an extra brown sturdy vine on the slope, and everyone speculated that this should be the two grandfathers who stayed on it, and saw that they had not returned for a long time, so they specially prepared!
The group hurriedly climbed up with the help of vines, and when the first person was discovered by Liu Xiumei and picked up something, the people behind them sped up even more.
"Did you go fishing?" Liu Xiumei snorted and asked.
"Not really!" Fu Gaoming took the grilled fish to his wife and father-in-law to share, and said the following observations.
Hearing that she had reached the reed beach in the other direction, and then continued to go up, the river water was clear, the fish and shrimp were abundant, and there were even waterfalls and deep pools.
It's a rare time to come here, and he has never seen such a good place with his own eyes.
But the smell of grilled fish that followed made the old man forget about it immediately.
"Have you eaten anything else?" Liu Xiumei asked with concern while eating the grilled fish that was almost out of temperature.
When luck came, they hurriedly nodded.
When they were eating grilled fish by the river, they also grilled a little of the dry food they had brought with them.
"What about you?" Fu Gaoming also asked with concern, just now he was helplessly disgusted by his father-in-law.
He wanted to remove the fish bones for his old man so that he could eat it conveniently.
As a result, his old man thought that his eyes were good now, and he disliked his son-in-law for underestimating him.
Liu Xiumei only took one grilled fish, wrapped the rest for them again, and then replied: "I also ate some!" ”
They didn't wait in vain this morning, not only did they inspect all the cliffs, but they almost wanted to go in and walk around the connected mountains.
It's not just her today, but her old father is with her, even if his old man seems to be in good spirits, Liu Xiumei doesn't dare to let him work so hard.
In addition, even the mountain range is not easy to pass, and there is a small river that meanders through, blocking Liu Xiumei's way.
The river wasn't really that wide, but she couldn't find a bridge, she couldn't cross a narrow place, and she couldn't fly to the other side.
However, after walking down this way, Liu Xiumei also breathed a sigh of relief.
Compared to the dense forests on the other side of the river, the trees here are really not very long.
First of all, most of the trees that grow are miscellaneous trees that don't have much value, Liu Xiumei has probably seen it, and it is estimated that there are not even a few wild fruit trees.
In addition, I don't know if it's because of the land or because there are few people here, and many of the trees grow straight and tall.
To be honest, such a tree, if it is of good wood, it is still okay to use it for wood.
But if you don't cut it down, even if you want to get some branches and firewood, you have to dislike it because it's too tall and straight to climb.
And in addition to these big trees, all that remains are the new saplings.
Some of them have been growing for three or five years, while others have only been growing for a year or two.
But they all have a common feature, that is, in the gap between these big trees, it is difficult to grab some sunlight and soil.
In order to survive, it looks like a strange ...... Liu Xiumei looked at it, and wanted to dance the axe and chop it directly to make firewood.
But in this era when everything is collective, Liu Xiumei doesn't even know where this place belongs, so naturally she doesn't dare to do it easily.
With these trees accounting for most of the nutrients, the shrubs, flowers, vines, etc. in this forest are not particularly luxuriant.
As for critters...... Except for some snakes and insects, Liu Xiumei didn't see anything else.
In general, it is the kind of place where resources are not abundant and not very attractive.
It's no wonder that looking at the way down the hillside, it seems that there is really no one for many years.
Not too many people have set foot on the top of this slope, so how could it be so coincidental to find the slope that is only slightly slower than the other directions?
Hearing this, the rest of the Fu family also breathed a sigh of relief.
In this way, if they have any harvest in the woods by the river, it will be easier to get to the mountains and forests above.
Moreover, this area is actually considered to be the edge of the city, and after passing through the city, you don't have to go through too many dense households to get there.
With an idea, Liu Xiudi immediately asked: "Come on, if you change to this side, is it convenient for your friend?" ”
Everyone is particularly concerned about this issue, and they all subconsciously look at it.
Being watched by so many people, although Fu Yunlai wanted to pat his chest and nod, he also had to worry about his family's endurance, so he could only seriously agree: "Then I'll go and say hello." ”
The crowd immediately nodded in agreement!
But what Fuyunlai didn't expect was that as soon as they came home, her family directly urged her to go out.
Pushing the bicycle and standing outside the door, Fu Yunlai was particularly confused......
So, where exactly is she going to ask?
Sure enough, lying, once it starts, means a lot of trouble.
With indescribable complicated feelings, Fu Yunlai had no choice but to ride a bicycle in the direction of Lin Lan's house first.
Fortunately, when I went to the soap factory, I inquired casually and got the news that Lin Lan and they were also on holiday today.
When Fu Yun came to find the past, Lin Lan was painfully pressed by her mother to learn to make clothes, and when she heard her nephew say that her friend was coming, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Mother Lin was helpless and funny, and when luck came in, she hadn't left yet.
Lin Lan's originally happy expression immediately disappeared a little.
The good fortune came from nowhere, and she was about to ask after saying hello, but Mother Lin decided to let her go for the time being under her daughter's pleading gaze.
As soon as Mother Lin left, Lin Lan immediately smiled.
"You are ......" Fu Yunlai looked at all this in confusion.
Lin Lan sighed before speaking, pointed to the messy sewing machine countertop and said, "I also want to know why!" My mom didn't know what was going on, so she suddenly started teaching me how to make clothes! ”
When Fu Yunlai heard this, for some reason, a sense of emptiness suddenly rose in his heart.
Maybe...... Maybe, probably it won't have anything to do with her learning to make clothes at Grandma Lin's house, right?
Lin Lan was still spitting bitter water at her friend, and she didn't notice the change in the expression on her friend's face for the time being.
Fu Yunlai hurriedly took out a pack of beef jerky from his backpack and stuffed it into his friend's hand.
