The first thousand four hundred and ninety-six chapters water chestnut boat
The pier was surrounded by large wooden tubs and shuttle boats. Children from the village and free women came here, with baskets and hooks, all wearing fishing clothes. Baobao and the little guys ran over excitedly. Baobao wanted to ride on the big tub boat.
But the baby can’t row a boat.
"Here comes the little treasure." The second master is packing up the oars, and the second master's fishing boat is brought over. The fishing boat is a bit bigger and cannot go too deep into the water chestnut. It will not be easy to get out, and it will easily damage the water chestnut seedlings. But the fishing boat is big,
It can accommodate many people, and city people come to play. It is difficult to operate a large wooden basin and a shuttle boat, but no one dares to try it casually. It doesn't matter a fishing boat, just sit in the village and row with someone.
"Second Master, who is going to row this boat?" Li Feng asked. At this time, many people gathered under the big willow tree, but there are not many people in the village who can row. "What? I can't row a boat with only my body."
.”
Li Feng didn't expect that the second master would row the boat himself. Rowing was not easy. After all, the second master was old. "Second master, let me do it. It just so happens that these little guys in my family are very noisy." The second master waved his hand and said with a smile. "You, row the boat.
It doesn’t take much effort, just bring the baby and them up here.”
The second master didn't wait for Li Feng to stop him and got on the fishing boat. He hadn't rowed in many years, but once he started rowing, he didn't feel unfamiliar at all. Li Feng saw that the second master was rowing very easily, forget it, the old man thought in his heart. "Baby,
What are you doing? Come here quickly, we are going to collect water chestnuts."
Li Feng waved to Baobao and the other little guys. Baobao twisted his little butt reluctantly. The little girl planned to sit on Uncle Uncle's big wooden basin. The big wooden basin contained Erya and Xiao Nannan. Baobao also wanted to get in. "Baby, Uncle Xiao."
Big wooden basin.”
"No, we can't have so many people sitting in the wooden basin." Li Feng didn't dare to let Baby Li sit in the big wooden basin, especially when there were many people and the little girl started playing. If she forgets and wanders around in the wooden basin, she will definitely fall over.
Erya and Xiao Nannan both often sit in wooden basins, much better than Li Baobao. "Oh." Li Baobao reluctantly followed his brother and sister to the fishing ground. "Old lady, do you also collect water chestnuts?"
The second master smiled and nodded. "Yes, the old lady is rowing a boat to take the baby to collect water chestnuts."
The baby came close to the second master, one young and one old. They talked and the baby gestured. He pointed at the water chestnuts in front of him. After a while, he giggled happily and forgot about the wooden basin. Liu Lan and Li Xin followed Li Feng over.
, seeing the water chestnut seedlings approaching, the two girls panicked a little. "Li Feng, how do you pick that water chestnut?" "Have you never picked water chestnuts? Li Xin, you haven't either." They both shook their heads, but Li Feng did.
Somewhat unexpected.
Li Xin lowered her head in embarrassment and whispered. "I haven't been at my grandparents' house for a long time. They didn't let me go into the water when I was young. I only watched others pick water chestnuts, and now I have forgotten it." "It's okay. I'll let Chacha teach me.
Teach you."
"Well, Aunt Xinxin, let me teach you. I picked the most water chestnuts in the morning." Chacha said with a proud face. The baby on the bow heard this and ran over. "Baby, I picked more water chestnuts, Xiaolan, baby."
Teach you."
Li Xin and Liu Lan blushed and nodded. The fishing boat went around and stopped against the water chestnut seedlings. Before the boat was stable, Bao Bao and Cha Cha stretched out the small hook. "Water chestnut." Bao Bao pulled.
When the rice seedlings came up, Liu Lan excitedly pointed at the water chestnut rice seedlings and shouted. The baby pouted. "Xiao Lan, you can't eat these yet, so this is okay." The baby looked like an aunt and you don't even understand rice seedlings. Liu Lan hummed.
He pinched the baby's little nose. "Yes, yes, the baby understands best."
The baby's little nose twitched and she pursed her lips. "Auntie pinches the baby's nose again, and the baby won't teach me anymore." "Okay, okay, auntie won't pinch the baby's beautiful little nose." Liu Lan chuckled, then got serious, and the baby's little nose twitched.
Become a little teacher.
Li Feng came to the bow of the boat and took the oar from the second master's hand. "Second master, please sit down for a while." "It's okay, this is just a little more. I walked dozens or hundreds of miles without taking a break."
Although the second master kept talking, he still sat down.
Li Feng took out a bottle of drink and handed it to the second master. Li Feng chatted with the second master. Several little guys picked water chestnuts. There were many city people on the shore. Li Fukui organized several fishing boats to take turns to pick water chestnuts in Hewanzi.
. Let’s experience it today. The competition will be postponed to next week. Li Feng relaxed, chatted and ate fresh water chestnuts, and picked a few chicken head rice. The village didn’t like this stuff very much, it was too troublesome.
.Many people in the city don't know this thing. Most of them didn't even hear about chicken head rice. A few people knew that this thing was gorgon fruit, it didn't taste very good, and it was full of sharp thorns, so they accidentally pricked their hands.
Few are willing to take risks.
Li Feng was not afraid to prepare gloves early. He picked some and planned to dry them and eat rice porridge. Gorgon seeds, lotus seeds and red bean porridge, which tastes good and nourishes the body. There are more chicken heads and rice this year than last year. Li Feng picked dozens of them in a short time.
"There are quite a lot of water chestnuts and chicken head rice this year. I thought the drought was so bad, but there wasn't much." The second master helped Li Feng pick some chicken head rice from time to time and peeled it open. It looked like a pomegranate. There was a piece of chicken head rice outside.
The layer is oily and a bit greasy when eaten.
"The mud below Hewanzi is thicker and more fertile. It may be better next year." Li Feng rubbed the chicken head rice one by one with thick gloves to remove the sharp thorns, so that he would not have to worry about peeling it back.
"That's true. There was so much mud last time, and the silt pile was thick. This winter when the water in Hewanzi is low, we will see if we can clean it up. Otherwise, there will be more rain next year, and the pond may be full." Erye continued.
No need to wear gloves, just rub it casually.
"That's true. I'm most afraid of heavy rain this winter." Li Feng packed the chicken heads and rice that he had kneaded and clapped his hands. "These are enough to eat. Second Master, I'll dry them and send some to Second Mistress. Let's burn the rice."
The porridge is good.”
"Then pick more. I'll take some back. You don't need to dry them. Your second wife is busy making preserved fruits these days. It won't be troublesome to dry them together." The second master said with a smile, while using the hook Li Feng brought to hook some chickens.
Head rice.
"My second wife is the best at making preserved fruits. It's just that making preserved fruits is quite tiring. You and your second wife should talk to your second wife and rest more so that you can have enough food." Li Feng helped. He had gloves and was not afraid of spikes, so he pulled a few platycodons along with him.
The roots and tender platycodon are very delicious when stir-fried.
"Your second wife has been nagging for the past few days that your baby and the little ones love to eat. If they can move more while they have time, they may not be able to move in a few years." The second master pulled a handful of chickens.
Head rice.
"Who said that? You and your mistress are in good health. Didn't you listen to those old men in Xianyun Xiaozhu who said that you look like a fifty-year-old man?" Li Feng saw the boat drifting into the water chestnut seedlings for a while, and hurriedly used the boat.
The oar was pushed further to the side.
"This kid, your second wife and I are not afraid of aging. Instead, our bodies have been drinking the medicinal wine you sent us these days. Don't tell me, it's very effective. Your second wife's legs don't hurt much. Usually, I drink the medicinal wine. It's not good for Xiaobao."
"Next time, I won't make any fruit wine for medicinal wine. I think sorghum wine is good." The alcohol content is too low and the drink is not satisfying. Li Feng laughed.
"I'll send it to you in the afternoon. The medicinal wine I brewed a while ago contains a batch of sorghum wine just produced by the winery. I've tasted it and it tastes much better than what's available on the market." Li Feng whispered as he paddled the boat.
"Okay, I just said that white wine is best when mixed with medicinal herbs." The second master became energetic. Now that he has the reputation of medicinal wine, the old lady will not stop him from drinking. "No, where can I find fruit wine that is good for soaking in white wine and medicinal herbs?"
.”
Li Feng agreed and said to Baobao and the others. "Stop hooking it, almost, let's go over there." Li Feng held the boat and came to the other side after a while. No one had picked it here yet, and there were more water chestnuts.
one time.
After rowing the fishing boat for almost an hour, Li Feng looked at the time and saw that it was almost the same. "Baby, stop playing, we have to go back." "Dad, can we pick for a while longer?" The baby was in the middle of picking, but where was he?
I'm willing to leave.
"Mom will be here soon. We have to go home and help her pick vegetables and watermelons." Li Fengyi said. Watermelon, Baby, Chacha, Bell, and Qi Qi's eyes widened. They had eaten the autumn watermelons.
Li Feng did know, but he didn't say anything. The little guys just looked at it. The baby even asked his father, but his father said he couldn't eat it.
"Well, the baby is going home to help mommy pick watermelons, but the baby is thirsty. How about daddy goes home and kills the watermelons to eat?" The baby clucked its little mouth, looking forward to Li Feng. "Okay, what a greedy little cat, go back and kill it."
Give the baby watermelon to eat. Let’s go and sit down. Dad is rowing the boat.”
Li Feng supported the fishing boat and returned to the small pier. Several little guys jumped on the small pier first. Li Feng stayed behind and thought about supporting the second master. "It's okay, kid, I don't need you to support my body." The second master carried a
With a basket of chicken heads and rice, he boarded the pier very flexibly. "Xiaobao, please leave this boat to your fourth uncle."
"I know." Li Feng handed the rope and oar to his fourth uncle, who could just take the tourists to pick water chestnuts. "Fourth uncle, I'll leave first." "Okay, I'll do it here." Li Feng said.
A basket of chicken heads and rice got off the boat, and the cleaning work in the boat was left to my fourth uncle. "Baby, what are you doing? Let's go home."
"Dad, uncle and aunt want to buy water chestnuts for Baobao and Brother, but Baobao doesn't know how much it will cost." Baobao pouted, with a distressed look on his face.
"Fresh water chestnuts cost one yuan a pound." Li Feng inquired yesterday about the price of water chestnuts in the town. "It's so cheap." Two young people who planned to buy water chestnuts murmured in a low voice and bought five pounds. The baby was very happy after selling the money. Fresh water chestnuts
It contains a lot of water, and one basket weighs more than ten or twenty kilograms. One yuan per kilogram is not cheap at all.
A few little guys were selling a lot by Hewanzi. One little guy had an extra ten yuan in his pocket. Liu Lan and Li Xin were picking water chestnuts, but they were so precious that they planned to dry them, so they asked Li Feng to help cook them.
They all took them back home. The Li Feng family’s jujubes were ripe, purple-red, and full of sweetness. There was also honey, and they brought some mountain products. The two girls planned to take advantage of the free time in a few days to go home.
