Chapter 47
In the autumn mountains of Liaodong, there are treasures everywhere.

Mushrooms, hazelnuts, pine nuts, fungus...

It was a good time to go up the mountain when Cheng Xue and the two first crossed, but at that time it was hard to live, so there was no time to think about mountains.

It was agreed to wait for Li Hui to rest and go to the mountains to try his luck, but he happened to catch up with Guo Dake's house building beams today.Fortunately, time didn't last long, Cheng Xue came back to change clothes after busy work, and Li Hui just finished asking Xiao Qinglin for advice.

"Daughter-in-law, get Brother Qinglin a sickle."

"He doesn't need it, he can follow up the mountain to have a look." Cheng Xue shook her head and refused.

This is the only son of the Xiao family. If he climbs a tree and knocks or touches it, it will be difficult to explain.According to her, she can't take it.

"It's okay, sister-in-law, give me a hand, and I can help you chop firewood."

As soon as the words fell, Li Heng, who was riding on the tiger, smiled and corrected:
"Uncle Xiao, you use a machete for chopping wood, not a sickle."

Cheng Xue clicked her tongue, but Xiao Qinglin had a good temper, and said with a smile:

"Sister-in-law, you have to be pragmatic when you do a lot of scientific research. That's why I came to our house. Please give me something, sister-in-law. You have to look like you're going up the mountain when you go up the mountain."

Cheng Xue told him to bring him a sharp shovel, which can be used for digging, and can be used as a walking stick when he is tired. One shovel can be used for multiple purposes.

When the preparations were ready, Li Hui urged Li Yue:
"Girl, lock the door and watch your brother and sister. We'll take the tiger away."

"Got it, Dad."

Hearing that the courtyard door was locked, the four of them left in peace.

In the village, Li Heng led the tiger, and the little thing didn't have fun.When he was about to leave the village, the tiger refused to "Hang Chi", so Li Heng quickly untied the rope and let it have fun.

Xiao Qinglin has been following Li Hui, like tiger cubs surrounding Li Heng and Yan Yixin.Li Hui didn't let him idle, and asked a lot of confusing knowledge points, and Cheng Xue followed suit a lot.

With the foundation of modern reading, it is actually not difficult to learn the knowledge of this world.The difficulty is that this is a patriarchal society, she can't be too ostentatious.

After walking for a quarter of an hour, we arrived at the big river where Li Heng often fished. He excitedly pulled Yan Yixin's arm and said:
"Brother, look, I've been fishing here with Shuanzi and Luzi in summer, and there are crickets in the water. Those things are good for making cricket tofu and making soup, and they are delicious. Brother, have you tried it?"

"I ate it once. The county is very precious, and there is not much given, and I haven't eaten enough. Let's catch it together next summer." Yan Yixin replied with some expectation.

"Okay, okay." Li Heng nodded hastily, "At that time, the two of us will compete with Shuanzi and Luzi. Let them watch too. I have an older brother."

The arrogant and dependent appearance immediately gave Yan Yixin a strong sense of belonging.Hands were naturally placed on his shoulders, and the two brothers moved forward with their arms.

Xiao Qinglin looked at the two of them with envy in his eyes.

"Brother Huizi, did you also want an older brother or younger brother when you were a child?"

Li Hui nodded, glanced at Cheng Xue, and said:
"Your sister-in-law is a woman, and she is like an iron egg a lot of times. I want to do something, but she can't participate. You should be stronger than me. The age difference between you and your two cousins ​​is too big."

"Yeah." Xiao Qinglin pouted, a little helpless, "Those brothers in the clan often move around, but they all approach with a purpose, I don't like it."

Li Hui raised his eyebrows and said frankly:
"I also have a purpose, don't you feel it?"

"It's just to ask about some knowledge that I don't understand. I don't think this is the purpose." Xiao Qinglin disagrees.

Compared with those brothers in the clan who wanted to plot against him all the time, Li Hui's was not enough.

If he really wanted to plot, he could have opened his mouth when he saved his life.Not only did the couple not have it, but they also invited him to eat beef and mutton. He still remembers that meal to this day.

"...Brother Huizi is in good time. This year's examination has just ended. If you can pass the examination in the next two years, you can go to Beijing to participate in the examination in the next year. When you come to the capital, you will be there. My family lives, and my family has many houses."

The examination of the Liangyan Dynasty is held every three years.There are two exams in spring and autumn every year in various places, but the number of people admitted is not large, and the exam is particularly difficult.

Li Hui nodded, looking forward to the exam three years later.

"It's fine to live in your house. I plan to bring your sister-in-law and children to Beijing. It's better for the family not to be separated. I may have to trouble you to rent a house for me in the capital."

Xiao Qinglin was startled when he heard this.

I have seen people from other places come to Beijing to rush for the exam, but I have never seen anyone who drags their families to Beijing to rush for the exam.

"...Ah, okay, the family cannot be separated. There is no need to rent that house. My mother has several dowries, so you can just live in it."

"That also has to pay the rent." Cheng Xue insisted.

Xiao Qinglin is well aware of her temper, and has always said the same thing.After thinking for a moment, he raised the corners of his mouth.

"That's fine, I'll charge your rent then."

He decides how much to charge, anyway, they haven't been to the capital, so if it's less, they shouldn't find out.

While talking, the four of them came to the foot of the mountain. Li Hui turned around and pulled Cheng Xue, told Li Heng to be careful, and led the way.

Xiao Qinglin looked at the two people standing side by side in front of him, turned to Li Heng and asked in a low voice:
"Your parents have always been this good?"

Li Heng nodded.The little guy was careful, and felt that Xiao Qinglin seemed lonely, so he stretched out his hand to hold him.

This oolong made a big fuss, Xiao Qinglin wanted to withdraw his hand, but felt that it was not good to disappoint the child's kindness, so he could only bite the bullet and let him hold it.

The trees in the long pine tower are generally more than ten and 20 meters of red pine.Climbing is impossible without protection, but mature pine cones will fall on their own, which is entirely hit and miss.

Children eat pine nuts well, and they can also find some chaga, water fungus and so on.

This is all seen in lonely medical books.It specifically introduces medicinal materials. It is estimated that the doctor who wrote the book was from Liaodong, and most of the records are here.

Passing by the place where Xiao Qinglin was rescued last time, Li Hui pointed it out to him.

"Huzi found you at the time, your head was over here, and there was a pool of blood on the ground."

Fortunately, it was discovered in time. If it was night, I'm afraid I would have to feed the wolves. After "visiting" the location where Xiao Qinglin was rescued, several people continued to walk into the mountains.

"Hey~ Brother Qinglin, after your accident, your second uncle didn't say to give you two guards?"

"Yes, but I don't want it. Apart from coming to Wanghe Village, I'm at the forest farm. There's such a shortage of guards, so let's leave them to my second uncle."

After finishing speaking, he took advantage of the opportunity to give them a popular science about the standards for raising people in the capital.

How many people are raised by what grade is fixed.As for the Fubing that is often played on TV, you need to be an official of the fifth rank or above, and you can't make it from the fifth rank.

"...My second uncle brought four guards here, and I don't have enough for him. I can't trouble him. Not only does he take care of the forest farm, but he is also responsible for delivering logs and other things to the North Army."

"Oh...that's it!" Cheng Xue nodded.

Li Hui also listened seriously, so he should do his homework in advance to avoid unnecessary troubles in the future.
