Chapter 373 I just hope you are happy
Xia Chan and Zhou Qizhi were responsible for cooking chicken stewed with mushrooms and braised pig meat. Xiao Tiantian and Jin Pengyuan were responsible for cooking braised rabbit and yam stewed air-dried pork ribs. Xiao Mimi went to help Xia Bin and naturally followed him We formed a team, and the two of them were responsible for making pickled fish and frying other vegetables.
Everyone had a clear division of labor, but they also cooperated with each other and cooked a sumptuous meal.
The temperature in this place is high, so Grandpa Xiao built a pavilion in the courtyard. The pavilion has air leakage from all sides, and it is very cool. Now this small courtyard looks more and more like the immortals in those fairy tales that Xia Chan watched in the 21st century. A place to live.
With lush greenery and beautiful scenery, it feels like a paradise.
It's even more beautiful than the place where gods live.
After happily eating a sumptuous lunch, everyone went back to their room for a lunch break. Zhou Qizhi took Xia Chan to a place not far from the small courtyard. Xia Chan asked in confusion, "Zhou Qizhi, take me here." What are you doing here?”
Zhou Qizhi stood on tiptoes and took a bamboo board from the tree. Looking at the bamboo board hanging there, Xia Chan covered her mouth in surprise, "Swing? Did you make this?"
"Yes, I did it two days ago. I just wanted to bring you here to have fun today. You are busy around everyone's future every day, but I just want you to be happy." Zhou Qizhi nodded, seriously said.
Xia Chan collects wild vegetables and fruits every day, but her family does not consume much wild vegetables and fruits. Zhou Qizhi knows that she wants to make more money from these things and share them with everyone.
Obviously everyone is here for vacation, but she is busier than before.
Xia Chan walked over, held on to the vines on both sides of the swing, then sat on the swing, tapped her toes on the ground, and started to swing gently. Zhou Qizhi walked behind and helped her push the swing.
"I have tried this vine in advance. It is very strong and you can sit on it with confidence." He would not let Xia Chan touch anything that was risky.
After the swing was completed, he personally tested it several times and found it to be very safe.
"Zhou Qizhi, thank you, you let me experience the joy that childhood should have." In the 21st century, as a sister, she can only take care of and spoil her younger brother, and has no sense of herself.
But she is different here, she is the youngest, everyone takes good care of her, and she can also experience what it feels like to be taken care of.
It's just that the conditions at home were so poor a few years ago, and everyone was very young and ignorant. They couldn't even fill their stomachs, let alone a happy childhood.
How many people in this era can have a happy childhood?
When I was young, I worked and took care of my younger siblings, and when I got older, I got married and had children. I was pushed forward at every step. Many people live in confusion all their lives, not knowing what they want or what they should do, but There is no way, after all, the most important thing at this time is to fill your stomach, everything else is insignificant and trivial!
Only those who don’t have to worry about food and drink have time to think about how to live their lives and how to make their lives more comfortable.
The two of them hung out on the swing under the tree for a while and then returned to the courtyard.
After the New Year's Day, Xia Chan and Zhou Qizhi set off again. There weren't many things to do, so they didn't stay at home to fight with their families for the few little things they had. They went out and wandered around, stocking up on supplies.
Anyway, they were just spreading around the small courtyard to see how big the forest was. The two of them walked back and stood where they came from, looking at the white snow in front of them and feeling magical.
It's really that exaggerated. It's winter on one side and early summer on the other. It's white on one side and green on the other.
If Xia Chan hadn't thought of going into the mountains to hunt for treasure, they wouldn't have discovered such a magical place.
"When we come here next time, let's dig up those two ginseng plants. Now that I have planted a lot of ginseng, I don't need to keep any more. Otherwise, it will be a big loss if others dig them up."< br>
Xia Chan also planted a lot of wild ginseng near the courtyard. She also planted ginseng and wild ginseng near her home. There will be no shortage of ginseng in the future, so the two plants on the mountain should be dug up. After all, they are far away from the production team. The distance can be reached on foot in about ten days. If someone else found it, they would definitely dig it up and not leave it there forever.
Zhou Qizhi was able to discover the two ginseng plants when the winter hunting team entered the mountain. The winter hunting team always consisted of at least eighty people, and sometimes there were hundreds of people. Anyway, every family would provide a strong laborer. With so many people, Zhou Qizhi can discover it, and others may also discover it.
Zhou Qizhi nodded, "Okay, we will dig it out when the time comes, and we won't leave it alone any longer."
There were a lot of wild vegetables here. When she turned back, Xia Chan squatted down and dug for wild vegetables. The last time she didn't like the wild vegetables here at all, it was because she found that there were good things in them.
However, Xia Chan has had nothing to do recently and has almost found good things in it. It would be a bit boring if he didn't dig wild vegetables, so he could only dig wild vegetables to his heart's content.
Even if you fall in love with Zhou Qizhi, you don't have to do it all the time. You will still feel bored, so you have to find other things to do.
Then let’s dig wild vegetables together!
The wild vegetables here are green, tender, and delicious. If you can’t finish them all, you’ll sell them on the black market. When Xia Cicada was digging wild vegetables, she also dug up a lot of them with roots. She planned to take them back and plant them near her home. I wonder if they can be planted. Live, give it a try anyway!
As the days passed, Grandpa Xiao and Grandma Xiao made the courtyard better and better, making it feel more and more like home. Seeing such a courtyard, no one really wanted to go back.
It is obvious that the various fruit trees planted by Xia Chan and Zhou Qizhi around the courtyard are alive and well, but it will take a few years to know whether they can successfully bear fruit.
Things like taro require a little more water, so Xia Chan planted taro on both sides of the hot spring river, and also planted wild celery. Even if they don't come to harvest it one year, it will be fine. Anyway, they will still be harvested next year. New seedlings will sprout, and as long as the roots are not cut down, they will grow again in the spring breeze.
Except that the fine grains that I brought with me are decreasing day by day and will be gone after eating them, there is no need to worry about other things. Xia Chan planted cassava and taro last year, which are edible. Vegetables can be grown by oneself or wild. As for meat, then It shouldn't be too easy, just go out hunting.
There are also fish in the hot spring river. If you eat one kind of meat a day, there will be no duplicates, and you don’t have to worry about getting tired of it.
A group of eight of them stayed here for more than three months and set off back in mid-March. Because April was about to begin the busy spring plowing season, they walked back faster and tried to get back to the production team before mid-April. .
Everyone has made this place very beautiful during this period, and they are reluctant to leave such a beautiful home, but in the end they still locked the gate and went back with a lot of harvest.
Grandpa Xiao and Grandma Xiao have been bathing in hot springs three times a day since they came here. Their health is much better than before. On the way back, they don’t need to be carried by young people, and they can even keep up with the pace of young people. This fully proves that the hot spring water is good for the body. It is indeed beneficial.
Their trip this time was worthwhile.
