I have found wild garlic, and there will also be onions and ginger! Yao Xiaoqing happily hummed to Popeye and ate spinach. It was like he had discovered a unique treasure! It was really a treasure. In this era, jade, agate, and real gold and silver could not compare.
What you eat has value.
When I was going down the mountain, I found another piece of amaranth on the slope. This thing is also a good thing. The young leaves can be eaten. When they grow up, they are good for making brooms.
Yao Xiaoqing thought to herself: Why didn't you see it just now? He quickly asked the two of them to uproot it and take it back for planting.
The three of them went down the mountain with baskets on their backs and vegetable baskets. Yao Xiaoqing saw Yao Hu just climbing out of the manure pit with a big stone.
When I took a closer look, I found that the manure pit had been dug, but it was full of potholes and had not been leveled off at first glance.
Yao Xiaoqing hurriedly stopped Yao Hu and Dashi, pointed to the pit and said to them: "Father, the inside of the pit must be compacted with a shovel, otherwise it will collapse."
"How to tamp it down?" Yao Hu thought for a moment, "Is it like driving wooden piles?"
Yao Xiaoqing gave him a thumbs up, "Yes, it's like driving a wooden pile and tamping it down."
Dashi laughed at the side and said: "Xiaoqing has so many ideas, she has to dig a hole even when she is trying to pull daddy."
Yao Hu smiled and patted him, "I told you, daddy is fertilizer, used to raise millet and beans."
"Yes, leader." Dashi smiled and jumped down from the manure pit and started beating it with a wooden shovel.
When the three returned home, Yao Xiaoqing asked Yun Amu and Shan Amu to string the mushrooms on vines to dry. She planted honeysuckle under the wooden fence.
Go into the cave and cut off the leaves of wild leeks and wild garlic, leaving a few heads of wild garlic behind to get two fish back to eat later.
I took the roots of wild leeks and wild garlic and the broom grass to the vegetable field. I planted the broom grass on the edge of the vegetable field, and the wild leeks and wild garlic were planted on the remaining side of the field.
Back in the yard, I tore off some vine bark and started weaving a fishing net in preparation for catching fish. I twisted the vine bark into thin ropes and knotted them tightly to weave a large net bag.
I found a bamboo pole and bent it, then tied it into a ring with a rope. I wrapped the net bag tightly around the ring with the rope, then tied a bent bamboo pole as a handle, and excitedly carried the net.
Out of the cave.
When he came out, he found that the sun had shrunk into the clouds at some point, and the sky above his head was gloomy. It was gloomier than anyone who owed him 2,580,000 yuan.
Yao Xiaoqing saw that the top of the mountain opposite was covered with dark clouds, and it looked like it was going to rain.
I hurriedly put the mushrooms that Shan Amu and the others had hung on the wall into the bamboo shed. As soon as I found a few bamboo poles to hang them up, sparse raindrops fell and rustled on the thatch roof.
Everyone at the bottom of the mountain returned to the yard. Yao Xiaoqing took a look and asked: "Father, haven't they come back with you?"
Yao Hu looked at Shan, "Shan, go find your mother and the others."
Shan said: "They went to collect wild duck eggs by the river, and they are already walking back now."
After a while, Shan'am and Yun'am came back with their backpacks on their backs, followed by Hua carrying Yaya.
There was half a basket of wild vegetables in the baskets on their backs, and more than twenty wild duck eggs and a dozen waterfowl eggs were placed on top.
Yao Xiaoqing found that the number of wild duck eggs collected was getting smaller and smaller. It seems that the wild ducks discovered that the duck eggs were stolen and began to move to the other side of the river to lay eggs.
We couldn't go out to do anything on rainy days, so everyone sat in the cave while Yaohu and Dashi made weapons.
Yao Xiaoqing began to teach Shui Bo and others to weave bamboo baskets, dustpans, and dustpans out of vines and bamboo strips.
Yao Xiaoqing saw Yao Hu and Yun Amu looking up from time to time outside the cave, their eyes full of worry.
Looking at the rain falling more and more outside, I knew that he was worried about Mu Feng, pigeons and bulls who were hunting in the mountains.
The rain continued from noon to the afternoon, and then gradually stopped.
It was getting dark, but Mu Feng and the others hadn't come back yet.
Yaohu became more and more worried about the safety of Mufeng and the others. He could no longer sit still. He stood up and carried the quiver woven from vines, picked up the bow and stone spear, and said to Dashi and Shan: "Let's go to meet Mufeng and the others."
.”
Dashi Heshan nodded, "Yes."
Yao Xiaoqing hurriedly handed the engineer shovel to Yao Hu, "Father, take my axe."
Yao Hu nodded, put down the stone spear, took the engineer shovel, took the mountain and big rocks out of the cave under everyone's worried eyes, opened the courtyard door and walked out.

Mufeng carried a basket on his back and carried a male muntjac. The pig and the male ox each carried a goat. The three of them were walking in the rain in the mountain forest.
The rainwater flowed down the branches, and several people were soaked to the skin. The animal skin shoes were filled with water, mulch and mud from the forest.
Mu Feng suddenly heard the sound of rain, which seemed to be mixed with human voices, and quickly grabbed Pig and Xiong Niu and hid behind a big tree.
The three of them hid behind the tree and listened carefully. Mufeng discovered that it was indeed a voice.
The sound got closer and closer, and a man's loud voice could be heard.
"Lu, was it near here that time you met those people from other tribes?"
The man who called the deer responded: "Yes, we followed them for a while, but they may have discovered us and disappeared into the woods. We will tell the leader about this when we get back."
The man with a hoarse voice said: "It's possible that the savages came here."
The loud voice rang again, "Don't worry about the savages. There are fewer and fewer wild animals toward the hills and mountains. I'm afraid that other tribes will migrate here. The leader has already asked people to search nearby to see if they are coming.
A new tribe?”
When the sounds of voices and footsteps became farther and farther away, the three of them came out from behind the big tree where they were hiding, and walked quickly out of the forest without saying a word.
When we reached a low bush, the rain gradually stopped.
The sky was overcast and it was about to get dark.
Xiong Niu glanced at Mu Feng beside him and said, "Let's walk faster. Fortunately, it's raining and there won't be any wild beasts. I'm just afraid that when it stops raining, wild beasts will come out."
Mu Feng raised his head and looked in the direction where he lived, "You can already see the top of the mountain where we live. Uncle, I heard their footsteps just now. There may be five or six people hunting together."
Zhi said from the side: "I heard the same thing. From their tone, they don't welcome outside tribes, right uncle?"
The male bull's voice was a little low, "Of course they don't want anyone to snatch their prey. We are few people, so we should listen to the leader and be careful. Let's go faster and talk about it when we get back!"
"Okay." The two of them agreed loudly, wiped the rain from their faces, and walked out of the bush at a faster pace.
As soon as they turned the pass, Pig, who was walking in front, saw the leader carrying an axe, followed by large rocks and mountains.
He grinned happily, "Chief, Uncle Dashi, Uncle Shan, you are here to pick us up!"
Yaohu smiled and nodded, looking at the prey carried by the three people, "Today's harvest is not bad." He said and took the wild goat carried by the pig.
Mu Feng took two quick steps and walked up to Yao Hu with a smile, "Father, you are here!"
Yao Hu glanced at him angrily, "Hurry up, it's getting dark soon."
Dashi Heshan took over the prey carried by Mu Feng and the bull, and said with a happy smile: "Haha! Today's harvest is not bad!"
Mufeng nodded and said, "Yes! If it doesn't rain, we can still hunt a few more goats."
After the joy, the three of them thought about the Shenmu tribe and felt heavy in their hearts.
