My whole family traveled across time with an encyclopedia

Chapter 81 Curious
The three of them carried baskets on their backs. When they came down, they met people who were digging wild vegetables in the village. Everyone knew that Ning Changrong's family ran into the mountains every day. No one knew what they were going for. They all thought it might be Just like them, they are also looking for food. After all, every household is like this. Some people have run out of food and rely entirely on wild vegetables to survive.

"The basket of Evergreen looks a bit heavy to me. I guess I found something good." Mrs. Han greeted Wang Xiujuan, watched the family leave, and said to Mrs. Lai beside her.

After experiencing the pain of being betrayed by her sister last time, I don't know how Mrs. Han coaxed them. The two of them seemed like one person within a few days.

Even dig wild vegetables together.

Hearing Mrs. Han's words, Mrs. Lai rolled her eyes, pulled Mrs. Han aside and said in a low voice, "Do you think there are any good things in there, otherwise why does their family keep running in there? Why don't we go in and have a look too?" ?”

Mrs. Han pursed her lips, "I said, are you stupid? If there are really good things in there, how can we not know? Their house only dared to go in because of the little arrow. We two old bones go in. It's not for those mountains. Does your beast deliver food?"

Then a small arrow long in one arm can kill a person with a swish, and it looks more powerful than the Orion's bow and arrow.I don't know how that girl Xixi figured it out?

Mrs. Lai was also thinking about it, or she was anxious about the dwindling food at home. Hearing Mrs. Han's words, it was as if she was shocked, "Oh, why don't I have such a powerful granddaughter. Let's go, let's go , go back quickly! After a while, I will be scooped up by that old woman again."

Xiayuan Village basically knew that Ning Changrong's family had a hand crossbow, which made the villagers very rare. Except for Village Chief Ning, no one knew the importance of that thing. Everyone, big and small, was greedy for that thing, but no one asked for it. Anyone who has seen it knows how good it is. Who would be so ignorant to ask for it?They would be reluctant to buy it with money, so they can only envy it.

The hand crossbow in Ning Daniu's house has been borrowed by many people to play with, but Ning Daniu knows the benefits of this thing, so he only lets people see it twice. There is no way to try that!
This was given to him by his brother Evergreen, and it is the only one in this village!
Besides the Ning family, he is the only one who owns it. What does this prove?It proves that Brother Evergreen still values ​​him the most!
Back home, Ning Changrong went down to the cellar with a bamboo basket on his back, and dumped all the taro he brought back into a corner of the cellar.

The three of them sat on the bed, and Ning Qingxi sighed, "I think this mountain might not have any saltpeter at all." After searching for so many days, they found nothing, and if they wanted to find it again, they would have to go deep into the mountain.

"Father, why don't we go further inside?"

Ning Changrong had a calculation in his mind, "We still have to keep looking, but we have to start making gunpowder."

Ning Qingxi didn't understand what this meant, they didn't even get the materials?He looked at Ning Changrong suspiciously.

"If you want to research this thing, it will not be successful in a short while, and the ammunition for the firecracker is not enough, so you have to do more."

Ning Changrong paused and said to Wang Xiujuan and Ning Qingxi:

"That's what I think. We can't find saltpeter for the time being. We can only scrape it from the toilet, but we don't have to scrape it ourselves. Let alone whether it smells or not, it's too much trouble. Isn't there still A lot of taro? We will produce taro, ask the second and third to help us collect saltpeter, and then spread the word in the village to exchange saltpeter for taro, it would be even better if someone knows where there is a saltpeter mine.”

Ning Lao Er, Ning Lao San's family and the villagers are busy looking for wild vegetables to find food. If there is no food, it will be really difficult to get them to help with work.

Under the lure of food, maybe there will be some windfalls.

"Mother, Xixi, we also have a lot of things in the cellar. It's no problem to eat until the autumn harvest. We haven't harvested anything in the past few days, and things have been delayed. Why don't we get some taro and ask others to help us find it?" Anyway, the taro was also found on the mountain."

Ning Changrong, when it comes to Ning Qingxi and her grandma, they both think it makes sense. They both live under the same roof. Although the meal time is different, Wang Xiujuan also knows that the two sons in this body usually eat What.

Fortunately, Ning Changrong reminded them to buy food in advance, otherwise, they would have to eat wild vegetables like most of the villagers now. Fortunately, there are still a few grains of rice for the pot.

Every day before dawn, the two families carry bamboo baskets on their backs, and take their son who is less than one year old up the mountain to look for food.

Wang Xiujuan looked a little uncomfortable, but they couldn't move their food. Now that they've found those yams, it can help the two families relieve some pressure and save themselves. It won't let the two brothers grow up A natural habit.

Taking advantage of the darkness, and with the help of a cow at home, it only took three nights to hunch all the taros on the mountain home.

The cow's hooves made some noise when they walked on the ground, and Wang Xiujuan specially wrapped his four hooves with tattered cloth, and a taro transport operation was completed quietly.

Even Ning Lao Er and Ning Lao San next door didn't notice.

If it’s convenient to have cattle, if Ning Changrong’s family does it, they don’t know how long it will take to get all the taro off.With this cow, it is not only convenient to transport, but also does not require much effort when digging the ground. Although some taro were damaged by the cow, Ning Changrong believes that no one will dislike the appearance of the taro, and there is no problem if you eat it in time.

Ning Lao San and Ning Lao Er came back with two bundles of firewood, Li Dafeng and Fang Chunmei were behind.

The family brought a bundle for themselves, and by the way, they would also bring a bundle for Wang Xiujuan and the others.

Although the two of them didn't ask them to give them much food every month when they separated, the two brothers would estimate their own abilities and give Wang Xiujuan some food every month, which means that it will be gone from this month onwards.

Instead, they got a lot of mushrooms from Wang Xiujuan.

On weekdays, the two brothers were ashamed when they saw Wang Xiujuan.

Speaking of mushrooms, sugar is needed to prepare its culture solution, and the sugar at home is almost gone, so if we continue to make it, we must use brown sugar. How can Ning Qingxi be willing?Anyway, the mushrooms grow one after another on the mountain, and there is no shortage of these mushrooms, so the sugar at home is not wasted.So the cultivation of this mushroom stopped.

Hearing the sound of firewood falling to the ground, Wang Xiujuan walked out of the room and called the two of them to stop. "Second and third."

Ning Lao Er and Ning Lao San stood in place and untied the bamboo baskets on their backs, and said in unison: "Mother."

At this moment, Fang Chunmei and Li Dafeng came in with the child on their backs.

Wang Xiujuan glanced at it, and found that half of the bamboo basket was only filled with a little. It is estimated that the wild vegetables have been scooped up by them for several days, and it is hard to find with so many people together.

Li Dafeng looked suspiciously at the two brothers standing in front of Wang Xiujuan's door, then at Wang Xiujuan: "Mother, what's wrong?"

After Li Dafeng finished asking, he glanced at Fang Chunmei, Fang Chunmei also had doubts in her eyes, she shook her head and said nothing.
