Chapter 68 Uphill

Lin Zhu went up the mountain for those wolfberry trees. It was already spring and the trees were beginning to sprout. She had to collect cuttings before the wolfberry trees sprouted and released their leaves. She also had to store these cuttings in the space for a few days. Since Lin Zhu discovered

After the space can improve the quality of the plants stored in it, she will habitually put every plant, seed, or fruit she can get in the space for a few days.

On the way up the mountain, Lin Zhu was also looking around to see if there were any edible wild vegetables. Spring is when everything grows in abundance. The wild vegetables that grow at this time are fresh and delicious, and can be turned into a delicious dish after cooking. But the people here

Eating wild vegetables should not be regarded as a kind of pleasure, but only as food for belly filling. After all, wild vegetables are a life-saving straw for poor people who cannot eat.

After being moistened by the spring rain, some wild vegetables have already grown. For example, mother-in-law and chicory have sprouted buds. There are also other unknown wild vegetables that have just exposed a little bit. It seems that it is not the time to pick them. Lin Zhu

I had no choice but to give up my plan to pick wild vegetables and hurry to a place with wolfberry trees.

When she arrived next to the wolfberry tree she picked for the first time, it had already been more than half an hour, which was much faster than the hour she had spent the first time here. Lin Zhu felt that her body was much healthier and energetic.

Son.

Lin Zhu looked for suitable tree strips around the wolfberry tree as cuttings to be collected. Whenever he saw one, he cut it with scissors and placed it on the ground next to him. He kept working, and there were four or five trees here. Lin Zhu probably cut them

Fifty or sixty branches were used as cuttings, but this was far from enough, because they had to be distributed to the village chief's family and the Wang family. They had to go to another place to collect.

After last year's search, Lin Zhu and Aunt Li found a total of five wolfberry bushes, each with about five or six wolfberry trees. In this way, Lin Zhu collected a total of nearly 200 branches suitable for making cuttings from three places.

After all these branches were put into the space, it was almost noon as the sky turned. Mother Chang would be anxious if she didn't go back.

Yu Linzhu greeted Hei Dou'er who was playing around and was about to return, "Hei Dou'er. We are going home, come out quickly!" Lin Zhu shouted several times and waited for a while, but Hei Dou'er did not appear, so she increased her volume.

I shouted again, stretching my ears and listening carefully to the silence around me. Gradually, Heidouer's cry came from far and near, but the sound was a little vague, as if there was something in his mouth.

"Hei Dou'er, here, here, hurry up." Lin Zhu shouted a few more times. Only then did Hei Dou'er's clear barking sound come from the bushes. Finally, Hei Dou'er sprang out from the direction of Lin Zhu's left hand, still holding it in his mouth.

There was a gray thing on his head. Lin Zhu took a closer look and saw that it was a hare. The hare's neck had been bitten off by Heidou'er, and its head was drooping. It looked like it was dead. Lin Zhu saw Heidou'er's teeth.

Yes, although Heidou'er is still small, its teeth are not small anymore and are very sharp. Lin Zhu often feeds it bones and the like, and it can crush them with just a click. But it is Lin Zhu who can catch up with rabbits.

I didn’t expect it. Judging from its usual lazy appearance, I didn’t expect that it would become very explosive once it went up the mountain. Even a hare could catch up with it.

"Hei Dou'er, that's great!" Lin Zhu praised and gave her a kiss in the air. Hei Dou'er shook her little tail and asked Lin Zhu for credit as her master, sticking out her tongue and breathing heavily. "Good boy.

, go home, today’s lunch is braised rabbit, the rabbit legs are yours. Let’s go.” Lin Zhu immediately gave the reward, and one person and one dog walked quickly down the mountain.

When she arrived at the foot of the mountain, Lin Zhu looked around and saw that there was no one around, so she took out the branches of the wolfberry tree. Of course, she only took out a hundred or so branches. These were for the village chief's family and the Wang family. Her own share would be in a few more days.

Bring out the genius.

"Mother Chang, I'm back." Lin Zhu put the branches in the backyard and shouted into the house. Mother Chang was worried about why she didn't come back yet. As soon as she heard her voice, she immediately walked to the back door and looked at her.

There was sweat on her face, there was dirt, and there were grass clippings in her hair. She was very embarrassed. He walked over and took off her back robe, patted the dust off her body, and picked up the grass clippings on her head. "Why did you come back?

We can't stay here for such a long time. Go and wash your face." After Lin Zhu went to wash up, Chang's mother walked in with the Bei Bei and suddenly saw something in the Bei Bei. "Girl, what's in the Bei Bei?

thing?"

"Oh, it's the rabbit caught by Heidou'er." Lin Zhu's voice came from the front. Chang's mother took it out, looked at it, and weighed it with her hands. It was quite heavy, weighing four or five kilograms. "Yes, it's really a rabbit."

What a good dog." She happily took the rabbit into the kitchen. "Mother Chang, let's make braised rabbit meat today and leave a rabbit leg for Black Bean to eat." Lin Zhu's voice came from the front again.

"I know, don't worry, I'll take care of the rabbit first." Chang's mother agreed with a smile.

Lin Zhu washed his hands and face, returned to the back room, changed his clothes first, and then went to the kang to look at Fu Dou'er's little bun. He was sleeping soundly. After kissing his little cheek, Lin Zhu went out.

Now, let’s go to the front yard to see the pepper seeds that were dried in the basket in the morning. After planting the rice seedlings, we have to prepare pepper seedlings. This is one of the tools that Lin Zhu plans to use to make a fortune. There are also watermelons and peanuts.

We have to wait for the weather to get warmer before we can plant it. No one in Linjia Village or even within a hundred miles of Song County has planted these peppers on a large scale. Some people only plant them in a few pots and treat them like potted plants. This time Lin

She plans to plant half an acre of bamboo in the ground and some in the yard. The seeds in her hand are more than enough.

The vegetable plot in the yard still needs to be prepared, and Lin Zhu also plans to grow more vegetables. Since she is a farm girl, she has to ensure self-sufficiency in this. Onions must be planted, as well as leeks, cucumbers, beans, and eggplants. As long as

Lin Zhu planned to plant some of the vegetable seeds she could find. She remembered that when she was walking around the village, she saw some families planting gourds, loofahs, pumpkins and the like. However, pumpkins are called Japanese melons here because they are long.

.It is said that Japanese melons can be used as food for half a year. Lin Zhu doesn’t do that for half a year, just so that he can have a variety of dishes on his table, and the taste of young Japanese melons is really good.

With the space tool, Lin Zhu is not worried about whether the things she grows will survive. She is only worried about the impact it will have because it is so delicious. However, her home is located in a remote place, and even if the vegetables in the yard grow very well,

Nor will it be discovered.

In fact, the people in Linjia Village only know Lin Zhu because she is a person in the village. Only the village chief's family and Wang Shudun's family are familiar with her, and then there are the families of the girls who play with her.

I still know her a little bit. With fewer people coming and going, there are fewer opportunities for her family’s situation to be exposed. Besides, as long as they have never eaten the vegetables grown by Lin Zhu using space seeds, no one will believe that a nine-year-old child of her can grow vegetables that are better than those grown by her elders.

There are good dishes coming from the crops. Lin Zhu also knows this, so she is not worried at all now.

Lin Zhu walked around the yard a few times and had already made a plan in his mind. Then he turned around and returned to the house. At this time, Chang's mother had already packed up the rabbit. What Lin Zhu didn't expect was that Chang didn't know how to cook.

Chang's mother is very skilled at killing rabbits. When I asked her out of curiosity, she said that her husband knew how to hunt, but she didn't know anything else, and she was best at braised rabbits.

Sure enough, the braised rabbit meat cooked by Chang's mother was served, and it was fragrant. After Chang's mother also sat down, Lin Zhu picked up a piece of rabbit meat, put it in his mouth and tasted it, "Well, well, it's really delicious." Lin Zhu

While eating, she stretched out her thumb and gestured to Chang's mother. "Speak after you finish eating." Chang's mother gave her another piece of rabbit meat and put it into the bowl.

Black Dou'er was already craving for the aroma even before the braised rabbit meat came out of the pot. Now he was even circling around Mother Chang's feet. Mother Chang gave Black Dou'er a whole rabbit leg specially prepared for him.

It was put in the food bowl. When Black Bean saw it, he immediately ran to the food bowl and happily ate the meat.

After dinner, Lin Zhu told Chang's mother about her plans for the yard, "Okay, I will do as you say, and I will help you plow the ground." Chang's mother looked at her with a smile, and the more she and Lin Zhu

The more we get along with her, the more I feel that she is an independent child and very capable. As a farm girl, she is very outstanding. "You are still young, I will do the heavy work, and you will give instructions from the side."

"Hehe, let's do it together, it'll be so fast." Lin Zhu said with a smile and went out to find tools.

When they were about to work, Fu Dou'er woke up and couldn't let him lie alone on the kang. The backpack Lin Zhu had made came in handy. Chang's mother wore it and carried Fu Dou'er

They put the baby inside and put a hat on his head to block the sun, and the three of them started working in the yard.

With the addition of Fu Dou'er, their work has become less boring, and teasing him from time to time can relieve their own fatigue. Of course, the efficiency will be greatly reduced.

Lin Zhu planned to sort out the places where the wolfberry tree cuttings would be cut. They were all close to the courtyard wall, and there was also a large open space outside her yard. It would be a suitable place for the wolfberry tree cuttings to be sorted out. She

There are no other houses around my house, so no one will object.

It was inconvenient for Chang's mother to work with her little Baozi, so Lin Zhu asked her to rest aside while he plowed the ground. The hoe was too heavy and the land was too hard. For a little person like Lin Zhu, plowing the ground was not easy.

But she still persevered. She couldn't always think of relying on others. The work of growing vegetables was relatively easy compared to farming. It would be a bit ridiculous to ask for help.

Therefore, Lin Zhu and Chang's mother took turns plowing the land inside and outside the courtyard. They worked for three days before they were done. But they were exhausted.

People from Linjia Village went to the fields to plant rice one after another. Seeing that Lin Zhu, the village chief's house, and Wang Shudun's house had planted rice a few days earlier than everyone else, and the seedlings were still very strong, everyone went to the village chief's house to inquire with the Wang family.

, Lin Zhu was automatically ignored by them. The two families were able to grow such good seedlings because they worked with Lin Zhu. It is difficult to tell the method without Lin Zhu's consent, but they are all from the same village.

, they met without looking up. The two families still came to ask Lin Zhu if he could teach the villagers how to raise seedlings. To this question, Lin Zhu’s answer was yes. She believed that there was no need to hide these things. Only the people in Linjia Village

The whole area is growing good rice, so she won't be too conspicuous inside. Besides, it's such an opportunity to make good friends with the villagers, and she is happy to give this favor to the village chief's family and the Wang family. (To be continued. If you like this film
