After finishing shopping, the group returned to Xiushantun.
Seven people, six dogs, and four horses dragged a long line of people along the way, which really felt a bit majestic.
The four Yuanbaoniangs were the most excited, trotting all the way in front.
The three pups arrived at a familiar place, sniffing all the way, and from time to time marking the stones, trees, flowers and plants on the roadside. Green Wolf and Black Mouth also followed them and sniffed everywhere.
Just after passing Huilongtun, Lu Lu met Zhao Meiling who was leading a horse. Walking side by side with her was Zhou Cuifen.
"Big brother is back!"
Zhou Cuifen greeted happily.
Lu Lu looked at several baskets of classified mushrooms placed on the carriage: "Sister-in-law Zhou, Sister-in-law Zhao, are you delivering mushrooms to the district?"
Before leaving, Chen Xiuyu told Lu Lu that she would invite a few people to go into the mountains to collect mountain products.
Look at the mushrooms in the car that are arranged very carefully, and they really look stylish.
"Yeah!"
Zhou Cuifen said with a smile: "Xiuyu is still very capable. She leads us to pick mushrooms. We pick the freshest mushrooms every morning, pick the best ones and deliver them to the district. She personally talks to those restaurants and those who come from the city to purchase them.
We contacted people and they saw that the mushrooms we sent were very pleasant and the price was reasonable. As soon as the items were delivered, they were quickly distributed. At the end of the day, each person could only have a few cents, sometimes more than one yuan.
money income.”
She was busy telling Lu Lu about these situations, as if it was a big deal.
Lu Lu was very clear about Chen Xiuyu's temperament. She always dared to think and do things, but she was not an idle person. It was not surprising that she could mess with things a little bit.
Don't look at it as a few cents or a dollar a day, it is not a small amount. For these women who usually stay at home and are busy working in the fields, it is a big deal and worth being happy about.
Chen Xiuyu wanted to do it, and Lu Lu was willing to let her try it first, treating it as exercise.
If this happens in a few years, when the domestic economic situation is improving, it will be the time for her to show off her abilities.
"Xiuyu is at home?"
It had been several days, and Lu Lu couldn't help but think about it.
"At home, she is leading Yanzi and Pu Guiying to stay in the meadow, washing the remaining mushrooms, drying them and keeping them for winter."
It was Zhao Meiling who answered Lu Lu. Her eyes often lingered on Zhao Tuanqing and the others. From the Su En they were wearing, it was easy to recognize that Zhao Tuanqing and the others were Oroqen people: "Xiuyu told us that you should go into the mountains to find the master.
Invite the masters to live in Caodianzi, they are..."
Lu Lu nodded, pointed at Zhao Tuanqing and said: "He is my master. Father Zhao and his children and grandchildren have already gone through the formalities in the district. From now on, they will be people of Xiushantun. They have to ask the two sisters-in-law to take care of them."
.”
Later, Lu Lu also introduced the two of them to Zhao Tuanqing and others by the way, telling them that they were relatively easy to get along with. The Zhao Tuanqing family, who were not good at speaking, saw Lu Lu specially introduce them and greeted the two with a smile.
Choosing to stay with Lu Lu in Xiushan Village was not like going to a place where Oroqen people live together like Ulaga. They also had to try to blend in. From now on, they were destined to have indispensable contact with the Han people, and they all knew Lu Lu's intentions.
Zhou Cuifen and Zhao Meiling hurried to the district, and Lu Lu was also busy going home, so they said goodbye.
After walking for more than half an hour, the group finally arrived at the fork in the road leading to Lulu Caodianzi.
As soon as Yuanbao and the others arrived, they immediately ran happily along the forest road towards the meadow, as if they were missing home after being away for a long time.
They usually don't make much noise, but when they got on the forest road, they ran and screamed.
Wang Yan and Pu Guiying were washing mushrooms by the river, while Chen Xiuyu was busy shaking the mushrooms out and drying them on large pieces of nylon cloth sewn from nylon bags on the meadow.
Hearing the cry of Yuanbao in the forest, Chen Xiuyu was slightly startled, and her expression suddenly became extremely happy. She ran towards the gate of the fence, with a braid swinging happily behind her. She opened the gate and ran across the river a few times.
, Yuanbao and the others will be welcomed soon.
Several dogs jumped and jumped at her affectionately.
She reached out and rubbed Yuan Bao's head, then ran along the road to greet him.
Pu Guiying and Wang Yan also stopped what they were doing and stood up.
"Brother Lu is back!" Wang Yan said with a smile.
Pu Guiying sighed: "I have to go home from now on!"
She looked back at Lu Lu's wood carvings with eyes full of regret: "Sister Xiuyu is so lucky!"
Wang Yan smiled and didn't say anything more. She also looked expectantly at the road coming in.
Not long after, she saw Chen Xiuyu and Lu Lu leading their horses side by side and leading a group of people in. When she saw Chen Xiuqing following behind, Wang Yan's face turned slightly red, but she secretly breathed a sigh of relief and glanced from time to time.
With.
Wang Dalong and others who were busy laying tiles on the warehouse saw a group of people coming in, and they all stopped their work and got down from the warehouse.
Lu Lu introduced Zhao Tuanqing and others to them one by one. After getting to know each other and greeting each other, Zhao Tuanqing and his family began to look around.
They saw three lynx cubs following Chen Xiuyu, several flying dragons kept in a cage by Lu Lu, and a group of chickens foraging for food on the grass in front of Mukoleng.
Then we turned around to see Lu Lu’s bee farm and the lush green vegetable fields.
Finally, the family walked into the meadow and soon saw twelve sika deer resting and feeding among the trees on the slope.
Everything is so gratifying.
Every time Zhao Tuanqing looked at something, he couldn't help but glance at Lu Lu, his eyes full of joy and a bit of envy.
"It's very good, it's done very well!" He praised repeatedly.
The envy in the eyes of Zhao Yongke and Wu Nakan became even stronger.
This was not the farming life they had in mind, where they spent all day digging in the fields. What they saw before them was a life that made them feel comfortable and longed for, as if a door had been opened for them.
They all had one thought in their minds: It turns out that life can still be lived like this!
"Is there any meadow near here?" Zhao Tuanqing asked directly.
"Go to the left along the inside of the meadow and walk for about ten minutes. There is also a small grass mat, but it is not big. It is only about one-third the size of my area!"
Lu Lu frowned slightly, a little confused.
"Is there water there?" Zhao Tuanqing asked again.
"There is a small ditch with not much water."
Lu Lu was very familiar with the surrounding environment after these days of wandering around. He could name a few places like this casually, it was just a matter of distance.
Zhao Tuanqing nodded and pondered for a while: "Take me to see it!"
The more Lu Lu listened, the more uncomfortable he became: "Dad Zhao, why are you asking this?"
"Of course we are staying!" Zhao Tuanqing looked up at Lu Lu.
"Ah...Dad Zhao, I invited you to live here in Caodianzi. Why did you choose another place?" Lu Lu couldn't understand what he was thinking.
"I have hands and feet, and the government has given me subsidies. Why should I live in your meadow? I saw your place and I like it very much. I want to learn how to build a small piece of it."
Zhao Tuanqing smiled and said: "Besides, it's just more than ten minutes away and you can visit us at any time. What's the difference? Come on, take me to see you!"
Lu Lu frowned and thought for a while, then looked back at Zhao Yongke and Wu Nakan: "Brother Zhao, sister-in-law, please help me persuade you to go to the mountains. It's not as convenient as mine."
Zhao Yongke shook his head and said with a smile: "I have the same idea as Amma and I. The mountains further inside are not bad. We didn't find it inconvenient to live in the mountains before. Maybe we will feel more comfortable after going in."
Lu Lu looked at Wu Nakan and saw that she nodded slightly. Lu Lu knew that there was nothing to persuade her.
That's right, it's just about ten minutes away, so you can drop by at any time.
"Okay, I'll take you over and have a look!"
Lu Lu led Zhuifeng, turned over and rode up. Zhao Tuanqing and Zhao Yongke also rode on their own horses. Lu Lu said to Chen Xiuyu: "Please invite my sister-in-law and two children to sit at home. We will be back soon!"
After saying that, he rode his horse out of the fence gate, trotted along the hillside to the ridge, and led the two of them to the small meadow to have a look. Apart from the small spots, it was also a good place with water and grass.
When they arrived at the end of the field, their horses had not yet dismounted. Mr. Zhao Tuanqing looked around and said with satisfaction: "We will live here."
They turned their horses and headed back.
When we arrived at Lulu Caodianzi, we put on the cart again, called Unakan and the children, and drove off with the cart.
"Dad Zhao, there's no need to be in such a hurry. Anyway, stay here for one night and let me and Xiuyu entertain you. It's not too late to go tomorrow!"
Being so anxious and furious, Lu Lu was very troubled by the old man's stubbornness.
"It won't take long to build a house. We have pots and pans, as well as grain and meat. We don't need anything. We can live in it tonight. Your house looks very beautiful, but I live in it."
If you stay, you may not have my Luo Zuozi Shutan... leaving!"
After Zhao Tuanqing finished speaking, he drove the carriage and left.
"Come over to the main office for dinner tonight?" Lu Lu shouted from behind.
"Don't bother..."
Zhao Tuanqing walked a few steps and suddenly stopped, laughing: "It would be nice to give me some of your green leafy vegetables."
In the mountains, there are a lot of game, wild vegetables, and mushrooms, but in their eyes, these grown vegetables are good things. Trading meat for green leafy vegetables is something they often do.
Lu Lu smiled and looked back at Chen Xiuyu who was following him. With a look, Chen Xiuyu instantly understood. He turned around and went back to the house to get the sickle. He came out with the basket and ran to the vegetable field. He picked out the good ones for each dish.
I picked up some and sent them to Zhao Tuanqing.
Unakan stepped forward to help pick it up and load it in the car. After thanking the two of them, the family drove the truck along the hillside.
"Dad Zhao, I will come to see you tomorrow. I will take you around the village, introduce you to a few people, and take care of the settlement matters by the way."
Watching the family go up the ridge, Lu Lu suddenly remembered that there were still some procedures to be completed, and hurriedly shouted to Zhao Tuanqing.
"Got it!" Zhao Tuanqing responded without stopping.
Lu Lu and Chen Xiuyu smiled at each other and watched Zhao Tuanqing and his family go away.
"Brother Lu, is this appropriate?"
Having never interacted with Oroqen people, Zhao Tuanqing and his family felt strange to Chen Xiuyu.
But no matter what, this was Lu Lu's specially invited guest. She didn't even enter the front door of her house. She just walked around in the meadow, looked around, and then left. She always felt a little inappropriate.
"Dad Zhao is also a stubborn person. If you don't believe me, ask Qingzi. In order to persuade him to come out of the mountain, the working group has been there several times, and I almost failed to persuade him to come out. They are all men in the mountain, and they look wild.
Some, but they all have good intentions. They really don’t care so much, and there will be more opportunities to move around in the future. You will know it gradually."
Lu Lu smiled and said: "It was good for them to live there in the past. Maybe it would be better to keep a certain distance."
When people gather together and never look up or down, no matter how good the relationship is, there will inevitably be disagreements. If you keep an appropriate distance, the relationship will be more harmonious.
After listening to Lu Lu's words, Chen Xiuyu turned around and looked at Chen Xiuqing, and suddenly stretched out her hand to tug Lu Lu.
Lu Lu looked back at Chen Xiuqing and found that this guy was holding the newly bought gun in his arms and looking longingly at Wang Yan who was washing mushrooms by the river.
The corner of his mouth twitched and he shouted to Wang Dalong on the roof of the warehouse: "Brother Wang, you have a new job."
"What are you planning to do again?" Wang Dalong looked back at Lu Lu and asked.
"When I finish the house here, I will help Qingzi build a wooden ridge!" Lu Lu smiled at Wang Dalong and said, "He has almost saved enough money to build a house. Isn't it... Qingzi?"
Chen Xiuqing suddenly came back to her senses, scratched her head and smiled naively: "I am thinking of a wooden ridge."
"Okay, Qingzi...Brothers, we don't have to travel far this year!"
Wang Dalong said something to the brothers and looked at Chen Xiuqing with a smile.
Wang Yan and Pu Guiying couldn't help but look back. Pu Guiying glanced at Wang Yan and whispered: "Someone is blessed!"
