The Resplendent Farming Apothecary

Chapter 22 Wild Boar Ridge

However, when he met the excited eyes of the two children, he couldn't bear to disappoint them. have to! Take it anyway! In case of encountering a herd of wild boars, he is responsible for attracting the attention of the wild boars and creating opportunities for the children to escape!

If you are in danger, don't worry about anything, just run, you know? When he was about to reach the Wild Boar Ridge, he instructed worriedly. Brothers and sisters Li Hao and Li Xiuniang also followed. If something happened to them, Gu Xiao would not be able to explain to the village elder brother!

Well! We will only drag Grandpa's hind legs when we stay, and protecting ourselves is the most important thing! Gu Ye said to remind his brother. She knew that her brother was most in love, for fear that he would rush up to meet danger, but at that time it would become a drag.

It's still my good granddaughter who is smart! Gu Xiao nodded at her approvingly. Although this granddaughter was born weak, she was quite temperamental towards him. Gu Ye gave him a bright smile.

The crowd climbed over a mountain and came to a pine forest. Shh— Gu Xiao quickly discovered the signs of wild boars. The dung left by the wild boar is quite fresh, it must have just left. Gu Xiao clenched the long knife in his hand and looked around vigilantly. With four children behind him, no wonder he was so nervous!

After confirming that the wild boar had gone far, Gu Xiao put down his guard, turned around and smiled at a few nervous little guys, and said, The trap is set here!

Gu Xiao took two boys to dig a trap, Gu Ye found a bunch of mushrooms, and took Li Xiuniang to pick them. Gu Ming was worried, looked up at her from time to time, and reminded her: Don't go too far, be careful to meet wild boars!

Naturally, it is impossible to meet the wild boar, because the smell of animal repellent powder on her body has not dissipated! Gu Yehuan picked up mushrooms on the ground. This is matsutake mushrooms. It is smooth and refreshing, with a strong fragrance. Wild boars love to eat them. No wonder it is called Wild Boar Ridge!

Li Xiuniang was nervous at first, but seeing that Gu Ye was so relaxed, she soon joined the mushroom-picking team. By the time the trap was dug, the two little girls had already picked a bunch of mushrooms. Gu Ye lifted the front of his clothes and pocketed the mushrooms inside. He grinned and showed his white teeth. That smile was brighter than the scorching sun.

Give me the mushrooms, you are a girl, and you must act like a girl. For this sister, Gu Ming was really heartbroken. He took off his patch-on-patch coat and was about to take the mushrooms over. In the late autumn, the forest was dark and deep, and the chill was even deeper. Gu Mingzhao only wore two pieces, inside and outside. He couldn't help shivering when he took off his clothes.

Seeing this, Gu Xiao cut a few vines with a long knife, flipped his fingers, and quickly made a simple basket: Don't push and pull, just put the mushrooms here. Little Leaf, it's really yours. , I picked so many pine mushrooms. My dear, there are still a few pine knots! This stewed chicken tastes so good!

The pine knots he said were the truffles that Gu Ye dug out of the soil, which had high nutritional value. She was lucky today and also dug up a few pieces.

Back home just in time to make dinner. On the open space beside the construction site, in the temporarily built thatched hut, Ninth Aunt and a few aunts in the village were busy making dinner.

The main food is the second rice of sorghum rice, which is full of two pots. A pot of lard stewed cabbage, and a large pot of potatoes and hare meat. The hare was brought back from the trap by Gu Ye yesterday.

It's time for dinner! Aunt Ninth took a long spoon and tapped a few times on the bowl of vegetables. The people who were busy on the construction site gathered around after washing their hands. They held thick porcelain bowls from their own homes, the third grandmother packed the rice, the ninth aunt prepared the vegetables, and then went to the steamed basket to get a steamed bun, and squatted in every corner to eat.

No way, Gu Xiao's family is not enough without a table, no stools and bowls, so they can only be wronged. The big guy didn't feel wronged, so many people gathered together, eating and talking, it was quite lively.

Some people who came to help feel distressed about the children at home. After the meal, they rushed home and shared the meat and vegetables with the children. After eating at home, they came back to continue to help.

Suddenly, a thin figure appeared in the rice-beating team, she squeezed forward, and confidently handed over the bowl in her hand. Seeing the person in front of him, the third grandmother took a meal with a spoon in her hand and frowned: Wu's family, you didn't come to help with the cooking, and you didn't help build the house, how could you have the face to eat other people's food?

This mother-in-law, where is the cheap and where to drill. Most people in the village did not like her.

Who said we didn't help? Someone smashed their feet on your construction site, and it wasn't for my man to see? That's not what help is? Aunt Wu took it for granted, Let's eat, our boss is still hungry.

The third grandmother threw the rice spoon into the pot and said with a sneer, Someone was injured today, and Doctor Wu also came to see it!

When Aunt Wu showed a proud look on her face, she continued: However, for a small wound, Doctor Wu received ten cents from Gu Xiao!

That's right, that's right!! We paid money for the treatment, so what is help? This Wu Danggui is not well-liked in the village, everyone is from the village, some minor illnesses and minor injuries, and those with a little effort, logically speaking, only Just give me some medicine. But he was better, and he charged more than the doctor in the town's Jimintang. Coupled with the temperament of his mother-in-law, few people in the village really liked him.

You can eat if you want! Give the ten cents back! If you don't want to eat, get out of the way and don't delay other people's meals! The third grandmother couldn't get used to her problem of wanting to take advantage of everything, so she wouldn't be accustomed to her.

Thinking of his man's stubborn temper, how could he spit out the copper plate in his hand. Aunt Wu spat towards the ground and left in a huff.

This little episode did not affect the mood of the big guy for dinner. Everyone was eating and talking, and there were on average at least four or five pieces of rabbit meat in each person's bowl. In addition, the cabbage was stewed with meat oil, so of course it tasted good.

Fifth Uncle, said Gu Chen, the eldest son of the patriarch, who was only five years younger than Gu Xiao, that is, your family, you can provide such good food. You have been hunting for so many years, and you haven't left it behind. .

When Gu Xiao joined the army, he was already in his teens. When he was a child, Gu Chen often walked around behind the fifth uncle of the same age, and sometimes he could pick up leaks and go back with a pheasant and a hare.

Gu Ye brought back one or two prey from the mountain from time to time, and everyone thought it was Gu Xiao's credit. He is the best at digging traps and catching prey!

Gu Xiao smiled and said nothing. His grandchildren are capable, only he knows it, so as not to cause other people's pink eye, and whisper two children behind their backs.

The next day was a big day for the beam. Early in the morning, Gu Xiao brought a half-sized wild boar from Wild Boar Ridge. The children headed by Gu Ming, surrounded the prey, screaming and laughing, as if they were celebrating a festival. Hidden Guard, who was watching this scene from a distance, wiped away tears that didn't exist - in order to lead this little wild boar into a trap last night, he was chased by the wild boars in the middle of the night!

Under the abbot of the patriarch, after a simple ceremony, Liang was ready. The villagers don't have so many cumbersome rules, and they put a thick straw on the roof and press it tightly. Even the two wooden sheds, the kitchen and the utility room, were mostly set up.

Today’s hospitality is full of hard dishes: two roe deer legs are roasted on fire, a pot full of braised roe deer meat, a pot of spicy fried roe deer meat, pheasant stewed with mushrooms, braised pork, braised pork ribs with yam, stir-fried large intestines, Yam fungus, pine mushroom fungus soup... Many dishes were dictated by Gu Ye and prepared by a few daughters-in-law with good cooking skills in the village.

The aroma of the dishes filled almost the entire forest and wafted to every corner of Qingshan Village. Those who have nothing to do with Gu Xiao and can't get together can only sniff their noses and eat the thick and hard pancakes with the rich fragrance.

Gu Xiao borrowed a table and stool from the village and set it up high and low. The people who have been helping these days have all invited over to have a lively meal.

Of course, Aunt Wu and Mrs Liu are not included in this list. Aunt Wu was holding her rice bowl, and when she saw Mrs. Liu, who was also looking at the mountain in front of the door, she came over and said, The two children of his family are still from your family. They are serious relatives, so they didn't invite you over. Look. Come on, people don't take you seriously at all.

That old man, he hates our boss! He is taking over our boss with all his heart to give him his retirement! Think about it, he has a lame leg and is getting older and older. If there is a disease, disaster, etc. , who can you count on? We are not so stupid, we should be filial sons and worthy grandsons to others! Liu's face was bitter and mean.

Since the dead girl passed out, the sores in her mouth have healed, and her whole body has become more comfortable. The stinky boy was also dismissed. This family will be entirely her son's from now on. If she is in a good mood, she will naturally relax everywhere. That dead girl is really a broom star, and she was born to collide with her!

That's not it! You are shrewd, and you took the opportunity to get rid of two burdens! Although the old guy has a little background, he said that half the size of the old man will kill the old man. He has just returned to the village, and he has no food or vegetables, so he has to buy everything. It is estimated that It didn't take long for the money on hand to be drained, and I can see that he will be able to shudder at that time! Aunt Wu felt very unhappy when he didn't get the rice yesterday: it's just a bowl of rice and a spoonful of vegetables, it's really stingy!

She continued: Chunhua, you have to be careful. That old guy don't order the two children to come back and borrow food from you!

How can we have free food for them in our family? Even if we have it, we won't give it to the dogs! We deserve to starve to death!! He spat in the direction and turned to enter the house. If she doesn't go in, her saliva will come out.

Meat, meat! I want to eat meat!! Xiao Zhuang looked at the coarse grain pancakes and pickles on the table, and immediately sat on the ground and kicked his legs into trouble.
