Farmer's daughter is also self-improvement

Chapter 76
After listening to Li Shasha read the letter, Mrs. Wang couldn't help muttering: "My child, you should be willing to spend money where you should spend it. It's not easy to go out!" Lei Guozhen persuaded: "Grandma, don't worry too much. , Zong Hui knows in his heart that he is not that ignorant person. Mother-in-law, don't worry!"

The old lady also interjected: "Yes, third daughter-in-law, I think Zong Hui is a good kid, smart and sensible, he is a hundred times better than his father, and he will definitely make you happy in the future." I didn't say much.

Day by day, autumn is here. The autumn climate here is very comfortable, which means that the autumn is refreshing.Although it is also windy, it is not the particularly cold wind in the north, but a very soft and gentle wind.The air is finally not so humid. What Li Shasha is most uncomfortable with is the humidity here. Only now can she feel a little bit like the dryness in the north.

This day happened to coincide with Li Xianzhi and Li Xianping's ten-day break. Li Lingling and Li Shasha made an appointment to rake clumps on the mountain together. At the beginning, Li Shasha didn't understand what a clump was.Li Xianzhi explained to her for a long time that even pine trees will lose their leaves in autumn, and their fallen leaves are pine needles. This kind of clump is a particularly good fire starter, and every household cannot lack it.However, this kind of thing needs to be pulled with a short-handled plow under the pine tree, so that it can be pulled out from a pile of dead branches and rotten leaves. After making a pile, it is very laborious to hold it in the back basket.

The firewood at home should be brought back at this time. This winter will definitely cost firewood. Every living room has a fire path. If people come back, there will be a lot of firewood every day.This time, Li Shasha's house lived higher than Li Lingling's, and it was their turn to call them. Wang was afraid that something might happen to the children, so she called Li Yulan to follow them, and Wang Wang happily followed the children.

A few people went out with their backpacks on their backs, while Wangwang happily ran back and forth.In the golden autumn of October, the sun is shining brightly, the clouds are light and the wind is light, and the sun is warm on the body, which is very pleasant.Five and a half children walked up the mountain laughing and laughing all the way.Li Shasha also enjoys this kind of life very much now. At least there is an unpolluted air and environment, and now she can be fed and clothed, so she is more willing to live here. Of course, it would be even better if there were no troubles from the Hou family All right.

A few people walked to the big rock that had been harvested that day, sat and rested, and looked at the houses below the mountain, which looked like matchboxes, shining brightly in the golden sunlight, as if shrouded in a golden light.Every time she saw this kind of scenery, Li Shasha felt that her mind seemed to be much wider.I try to look at the height of the legs, but it is not as good as climbing the heights to gain insight.

After sitting for a long time, Li Yulan directed everyone to go to the woods where the mushrooms were collected last time.Last time, Li Shasha's body just recovered not long ago. I just remember climbing up and feeling like I was out of breath. Now I feel a little more comfortable.When I got to the woods, I didn't feel how much effort I had spent.He also kept saying unconvinced: "Can you still go up?"

Li Xianzhi looked at his younger sister's bravery, and just shook his head with a smile. Because of his previous practice, he walked the mountain roads like flying, and his own sister's performance was not enough.

Li Lingling saw that Li Shasha started to blow up, so she smiled mysteriously and said to her: "Go up, do you dare?" Some fear flashed.

Li Shasha was a little stunned when she saw it: "What's there in the Earth Temple? So what if you go up?" Li Lingling was about to speak, but Li Xianping interrupted: "Sister, don't scare Sister Sha!" I'm interested, but don't let me tell you what's going on.

Li Yulan also stepped forward to grab Li Shasha, and shouted in a low voice: "Sister Sha, stop talking here, and my aunt will tell you a little bit when I get home!" After saying this, Li Shasha's heart was about to start bubbling. There must be a mysterious event.I can't talk about it here, I have to go home and talk about it, what's going on!
But seeing that the faces of the rest of the people were not very good-looking, she swallowed the doubtful words in her heart.The atmosphere suddenly became heavy. Li Yulan was the oldest, seeing this situation, she had to shout: "Come on, everyone is here, hurry up and rake the bushes!" Several people did not speak, squatting under the pine tree and began to focus on What about raking.

Suddenly, Li Lingling yelled, and the rest of the people sat down on the ground in fright, and the commotion made Wangwang also bark wildly.Li Xianping shouted to his sister angrily: "Sister Ling, why are you screaming? You scared everyone to death." Li Lingling said embarrassedly: "Hey, I didn't mean it. There are a lot of fir fungi here. We are lucky. Great!"

As soon as she said this, the rest of the people immediately moved closer to her, and looked along where her finger was, and Li Shasha saw a bunch of brown mushroom umbrellas, which were different from the ones picked last time!Last time it was all yellow and clear, but today the pile of fungus is black and abrupt, so it's not as good as last time.

Seeing her disapproving look, Li Yulan explained: "This fir fungus is orange-yellow when picked in spring, but in autumn, it is also called Chongyang fungus, but the color turns brown, and the taste is still the same. Mushrooms are the thickest meat, let's take a closer look, maybe we're lucky, and we can pick more stewed meat to eat! By the way, this stewed chicken tastes good, and it can also nourish your mother."

Hearing that it was good for their mother's stomach, Li Xianzhi and Li Shasha searched for every tree and every tree like chicken blood.Sure enough, hard work paid off, they found a few more piles of fir fungi, collected all the fir fungus, and actually filled most of the basket, and now they can eat it for a while.

The two of them were busy picking fungi, and the other three were not idle either. Each of them raked a basket of bushes.Li Shasha felt embarrassed, and picked a bunch of fungus back under the banner of raking Cong, so she became a foodie.Li Xianzhi and Li Shasha put down most of the fungus in the basket, and began to rake up the clumps again.Finally, the two of them also raked the bushes in the basket, and then they took a rest.

Several people rested for a while before walking down the mountain.At the door of her house, Li Shasha told Li Xianping and Li Lingling to wait a while. She quickly ran into the courtyard and took out a basket. She divided half of the fir fungus she picked at home into the basket, and handed it to Li Lingling.Li Lingling waved her hands and refused to take it: "You guys picked it, you can take it, and let's stew some more to make up for the third aunt, and we don't want it." Li Shasha said with a smile: "Sister Lingling, if you didn't find it, where would we be?" I will think of picking mushrooms, let’s go out together, you can take half of it! There are so many here, our family can’t eat them all, and when it breaks, we will waste things.”

Li Lingling smiled and said: "Damn baby, I can't eat it for you! Then I don't want it anymore. Sister Sha, listen to me, it doesn't matter if you can't finish eating this fungus, you can ask your grandma to squeeze the fungus oil , That thing is not easy to break, put some Kexiang when eating noodles."

Li Shasha was a little dumbfounded, but she could still do this.Li Lingling put the half-basket of mushrooms back into her hand: "You can get some more for Third Auntie, and I picked some too, so I'll be able to have a meal when I go back." After finishing speaking, she turned around and took Li Xianping's hand. ran home.

Seeing her slipping away fast, Li Shasha didn't engage in those fake politeness of pushing and pushing, so she ate at home, and I'll talk about any good things in the future.Li Yulan helped her carry two baskets into the courtyard, and Li Xianzhi also followed in with Cong Mo, carrying a basket on her back. Li Shasha closed the courtyard door behind her and bolted it.

Several people entered the stove house all the way, and unloaded Cong Mo next to the firewood pile in the stove house.Wang looked at them and said with a smile: "I picked up gold ingots today, all of them smiling." Li Shasha stepped forward and grabbed Wang's hand: "Grandma, we picked fir mushrooms today, and there are as many as half of the baskets." Well. My aunt said that I can stew chicken for my mother’s body, and the old lady can also drink more chicken soup. It’s just that there are so many bacteria, I’m afraid I won’t be able to finish it, so I want to give half to my grandpa’s house. Sister Lingling said that I can let you I squeezed the fungus oil, and ran very fast after speaking, for fear that I would catch up with her."

Mrs. Wang said in surprise: "Really, the fir fungus at this time is also called Chongyang fungus. It's delicious. We have a good time. Let's stew the meat for lunch today. It happens that the air-dried meat hanging to dry is almost ready. This fir fungus stew must be very fragrant. Tomorrow, before the chickens are released from the nest, I will save another one to be stewed with fir fungus for your mother and the old lady. For the rest, I will follow what Sister Ling said. Give the mushroom oil, pour some on when eating noodles, hey, that smells good!"

Li Shasha made Mrs. Wang say so much that she was about to bleed out. She unconsciously wiped the corners of her mouth, and smiled at Mrs. Wang, "Grandma, I can wait for you to make stewed meat with mushrooms at noon!" Mrs. Wang Patted her on the head: "I've been tired all morning, you and Brother Zhi go back to the house to rest! Yulan, you go back and rest for a while, I'll make lunch today."

Li Shasha and Li Yulan both went back to the room to rest, but Li Xianzhi went back to the study and started to review his homework.Seeing her grandson becoming more and more sensible, Mrs. Wang felt very heartbroken.

When it was lunch time, Li Shasha woke up naturally when she smelled the stewed meat with fir mushrooms wafting from the stove, and she and Li Yulan hurried to the stove to help.A small red clay charcoal stove has been set up on the small table in the stove room, and a large crock pot of stewed meat with fir mushrooms is on top of it, and several plates of fried vegetables are placed beside it.

Li Yulan didn't let Li Shasha move the charcoal stove, fearing that she would burn it, so she used a rag to carry the charcoal stove and the earthen jar respectively.Li Shasha helped bring the stir-fried vegetables to the main room, and then called Li Xianzhi, who was studying hard in the study, to come out, and the two went to the main room to call Lei Guozhen, and the three of them helped the old lady out .
