Chapter 454 Good luck to you
The rules of the contest of digging bamboo shoots are very simple.

Xiaojia Village circled the ten best-growing moso bamboo hills, and contestants could bring hoes, shovels, and various tools up the hills to dig winter bamboo shoots.

(Except for gunpowder, explosives, torpedoes, inflammable and explosive items and other weapons that are too lethal.)
It lasts eight hours, from 08:30 am to 04:30 pm, and there is an hour for lunch at noon.

The whole bamboo shoot banquet was prepared by the villagers who did not participate in the competition led by Li Hongying, and it was ready before the [-]th.

The contestants went down the mountain to eat at one o'clock.

It is up to you to decide whether to take a break after eating, or go up the mountain to continue digging bamboo shoots without stopping.

The No.1 prize in previous years was a wild boar.

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

This year's No.1 prize is the mysterious grand prize sponsored by Xiao Cheng and Bai Lu.

Everyone was looking forward to it. More than 200 people gathered in the square in front of the ancestral hall of Xiaojia Village, carrying baskets and sacks, and holding tools, all excited and eager to try.

Xiao Guofu, as the head of the clan, gave a speech before setting off, and asked for precautions. Bai Lu was also enthusiastically pushed out by the Xiao family. After a few words of encouragement, the gong started.

"Come on!"

"The first one has a big prize!"

"We must win the championship this year!"

"This year's No.1 is not a wild boar, it's a mysterious prize sponsored by brother Cheng and sister-in-law! Go!"

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

Luo Shiliu, Xiao Dazhuang, Xiao Wei and Shang Chuyao were waiting for Bai Lu, who was saying goodbye to her grandpa and grandma.

"Lulu, the mountain road is steep. Apart from bamboo, there are also many thorny plants on the mountain. Pay more attention to safety."

"The little piglet raised at home has grown into a big piglet. You are busy at the end of the year and you don't have time to come back. The pig slaughtering feast has been postponed to today. After digging the bamboo shoots, go down the mountain early. Grandma will cook pork rib soup for you..."

"Okay." Bai Lu nodded obediently.

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

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

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

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

If the feast of chicken, duck, fish and whole bamboo shoots is not rich enough, Li Hongying will send people to buy shrimps and crabs by the river in the town. Although she is not sure if there are any, big or small, this is already the most sumptuous lunch she can think of.

Bai Lu shook her head lightly: "Just be the same as everyone else, it doesn't need to be special, as long as the ingredients are fresh."

"Okay, then you guys slow down."

"Goodbye, sister-in-law~" Li Jianfeng and Wu You also bid farewell to Bai Lu. The mountain they are going to is the mountain of Xiao Cheng's family, and the road is different from Bai Lu and the others.

I can only say goodbye temporarily.

Bai Lu glanced at the plastic bag in Wu You's hand, and couldn't help reminding 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 might as well be blown up by a torpedo!"

Luo Shiliu stared at his hand with a half-smile, "Don't blow yourself up."

"I'll blow you up first." Luo Shiliu took out the plastic bag.

Bai Lu's eyelids twitched wildly: "Okay, okay, hurry up and fry...cough to dig your bamboo shoots! If you are late, you won't be able to take the first place. Where do you know the mountain?"

"know."

Just now some villagers took Li Jianfeng and Wu You to see where the mountain of Xiao Cheng's house is.

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

Bai Lu: "..."

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

"I can also take the first place in Shangougou!"

"Good luck."

The group parted ways at the foot of the mountain.

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

The wind blows through the bamboo forest, rustling, and the slender green leaves are blown off, covering the ground, new leaves and old leaves, the footsteps of walking in the forest pass by lightly.

Luo Shiliu and Xiao Dazhuang found the bamboo shoots.

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

Xiao Wei let go of Bai Lu's sleeves, and ran to help with a small hoe on his shoulder.

Bai Lu and Shang Chuyao were also holding small hoes, looking for sprouting winter bamboo shoots nearby.

After looking for it, Bai Lu found that Shang Chuyao was watching Xiao Dazhuang digging bamboo shoots with great interest.

"Do you want to help?"

Bai Lu teased and said with a teasing smile: "Don't try to encourage me, it's very difficult for Da Zhuang to take the first place!"

Shang Chuyao was full of surprise: "Aren't we digging bamboo shoots for fun?"

"That's right..."

Before Bai Lu finished speaking, Shang Chuyao changed the subject: "Xiao Dazhuang seems to be acting weird today, when talking to me he either looks around, or looks left and right.

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

Bai Lu leaned on the bamboo with one hand, and stared straight at Shang Chuyao with a small gleam of wisdom in her eyes: "Did you beat up Da Zhuang last night to prevent people from telling the truth?"

"How is it possible!" Shang Chuyao denied it righteously: "I only leaked your information."

"I don't remember the rest."

Bai Lu sneered: "You still remember breaking my story?"

"Shang Chu Yaoyao, I usually treat you well, but you betray me, you are too heartless!"

Shang Chuyao was stunned, and very apologetically grabbed Bai Lu's shoulder and shook her vigorously: "Lu Lu, are you still drunk? Didn't I explain to you this morning that I can do anything if I drink too much, and I can't even betray you?" It's small, drink two more glasses, and I can tear down your house!"

Bai Lu: "..."

What a fueling explanation! ?
Still in a daze after explaining, Bai Lu followed Shang Chuyao's line of sight and saw Xiao Dazhuang bending over to dig bamboo shoots.

Sure enough, people who work hard are the most attractive, regardless of gender.

"Yaoyao, do you want my mother to talk to my sister-in-law when she grows up, and become Yaoyao?"

After watching Xiao Dazhuang digging bamboo shoots, Shang Chuyao watched Luo Shiliu digging. After watching Luo Shiliu, she watched Xiao Wei dig. Only after watching Xiao Wei did she realize: "What are you talking about?"

"How is it possible for Xiao Dazhuang, no, how is it possible for me... Well, you continue."

Bai Lu laughed happily: "Da Zhuang is an honest and good boy, he will listen to whoever is right, if you tell him something he doesn't know, he will definitely use your words as the standard, and he will say whoever is wrong. "

"Really or not." Shang Chuyao was dubious: "Why do I feel that you are fooling me."

"If you don't believe me, try teaching him to identify poisonous mushrooms." Bai Lu sincerely suggested.

With Shang Chuyao's firm approval, she ran to teach Xiao Dazhuang how to distinguish poisonous mushrooms without saying a word.

I also pulled roadside mushrooms as samples.

Luo Shiliu and Xiao Wei stared blankly at Xiao Dazhuang, who was digging bamboo shoots and learning to recognize mushrooms from Shang Chuyao, who had studied very hard. They both looked back at Bai Lu in shock.

Bai Lu smiled and waved her hands. Just as she was about to say something, a figure rushed into the bamboo forest.

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