Going through ancient farming to engage in infrastructure construction

Chapter 27 27 Wild Leek, Wild Garlic
After eating the food, everyone practiced archery for a while.

Yaohu thought that there were more and more places where the baskets were needed, so he asked Mu Feng to teach Uncle Chong and Uncle Shui how to weave the baskets.

He took a few big stones and used flint to make stone spears.

After Yao Xiaoqing saw it, he took out his notebook and drew a picture of an arrow for him, asking him to try to make an arrow from flint.

The production methods of arrowheads and stone spears are similar, Yaohu thought for a while after reading it, and then he understood, picked up the flint and started to make arrowheads.

Yao Xiaoqing sat in front of the fire, wove a vegetable basket out of vines and branches, and planned to go to the woods to see if he could find spices like ginger, onion, and garlic.

Amu Shan and Amu Yun looked at her for a while, and said to her: "Xiaoqing, we want to learn weaving from you, that thing in your hand."

Yao Xiaoqing nodded cheerfully, "Okay! This is called a vegetable basket, you go and get vines and canes and I will teach you."

Hua looked at her nervously, "Xiaoqing, I want to learn too."

Yao Xiaoqing smiled and said: "Yes, you have learned that when you are firing clay pots at home, you can weave all kinds of rattan baskets."

Hua smiled and said, "Okay."

The three of them smiled gratefully at her, went out and brought vines and sticks and followed suit.

Now in the cave, except for Yaya who fell asleep, everyone was busy with their work.

Everyone was so busy that they yawned so much that they fell asleep separately.

After Yao Xiaoqing washed up, she took her sleeping bag and went to the bamboo shed, closed the bamboo door and put on a cotton kilt, climbed onto the bamboo bed and got into the sleeping bag.Taking a deep breath, thinking that I finally got rid of the smell of sweat, feet, and the smell of fireworks in the cave, I fell asleep comfortably.

Mu Feng spread a layer of animal skins on the bamboo bed, and the pig also ran to huddle with him.

After a good night's sleep, it was dawn the next day when Yao Xiaoqing was woken up by Yaohu's voice.

When I ran outside with the paper, I remembered and forgot to dig a latrine.

After returning from the forest, Mu Feng and the others had already gone hunting.

Yaohu and Dashi went to the traps, but no prey was found in the two traps.The two walked back in frustration.

After Yao Xiaoqing came back to wash and eat, he found that the golden hair was gone again.She was used to it disappearing every day, and she didn't go out to look for it anymore.

After eating, I went to the field to look around, and saw that the fence was in good condition, with no signs of damage.

I came out of the field with confidence and looked at the land that had been cut. In just two days, there was a large area. The cut firewood and wood were piled up at the foot of the mountain to be as high as a hill.

She thought that when they cut down the part of the pond, there are almost 100 mu of land, and then open up more land, then they can find stones to build walls and repair houses.

First go to the forest to find some fruit trees and plant them farther away from the fence. When autumn comes, you will have to look for food seeds and prepare them for planting in the next spring.

At this time, Yaohu came over with an engineering shovel, and Yao Xiaoqing ran over to hold him back.

"Father, come with me and help me dig a big hole."

Yaohu thought she was going to dig a trap somewhere, so he happily followed her to the south wall.

Yao Xiaoqing drew the position of a big pit two meters high and three meters wide, and said to him, "Father, just follow my drawing and dig a deeper pit here."

Yaohu thought she was going to dig a trap here, so he shook his head and said, "Xiaoqing, if you dig a trap here, you can't catch wild things."

Yao Xiaoqing blushed and explained, "Father, I didn't dig a trap, I dug a cesspit."

Yaohu looked at her puzzled, "What is a cesspit?"

Yao Xiaoqing stomped her feet, "Oh! It's what we use to poop."

Yaohu looked at her strangely, "It can be pulled anywhere in the forest!"

Yao Xiaoqing was speechless, "Father, if we want to grow food, we need fertilizer, and our papa is fertilizer."

Yaohu didn't understand what fertilizer was, and he didn't know why he had to dig a pit to feed his poop. Seeing that Yao Xiaoqing wanted it, he nodded with a smile, "Okay, Father digs a dung pit."

Yao Xiaoqing smiled and said, "Thank you, Father."

"Xiaoqing, thank you for what?"

It was only then that Yao Xiaoqing realized that she had unknowingly used the language of her previous life.

"Father, thank you means that we do things for others. They feel very happy that we are willing to help her. They are very grateful to us, so they say thank you to us!"

Yaohu understood, and looked at her with a smile, "You are my daughter, please don't thank me!"

Yao Xiaoqing looked at him and laughed, "Okay! Shan Amu and I went up the mountain to look for wild vegetables."

Yaohu warned: "Don't go too far, be careful of wild animals."

"Hey!" Yao Xiaoqing responded crisply.Go back and carry the panniers and Shan Amu and the others, and walk towards the forest above the cave.

As soon as he arrived on the slope, he found a small piece of green wild leek. Yao Xiaoqing jumped on it happily, and took out a bamboo knife to pry it up.

Seeing her happy look, Shan Amu asked with a smile: "Xiaoqing, what is this thing called?"

Yao Xiaoqing thought that this stuff is delicious for making dumplings and grilling, but the only way to eat it is fried duck eggs.

"It's called wild leeks, and fried duck eggs are very delicious after being chopped. Let's dig some and go back to make a vegetable garden and plant it in the vegetable garden. It's also convenient to eat later."

The two nodded, "Okay, Xiaoqing said it's delicious, so let's take some back."

The three of them pried up the piece of wild leek with its roots and soil, and put it into the back pocket with leaves as a cushion.

Then I dug a few honeysuckle and a piece of Houttuynia cordata.After walking a few steps, I found some fungus on a dead tree.Yao Xiaoqing thought of fried pork with fungus and picked them all up in the basket.

There are bigfoot mushrooms, chanterelles, chicken fir mushrooms, boletus and other mushrooms everywhere in the forest.

Yao Xiaoqing thought to himself: In the previous life, the price of these kinds of mushrooms was not cheap. They can be seen everywhere here, and no one even picks them up.

Shan Amu looked at the mushrooms in her vegetable basket and asked curiously: "Xiaoqing, can these things be eaten?"

"Some are edible, and some are poisonous and cannot be eaten. Just pick the ones I picked, and don't want anything else."

"Okay." The two also bent down and picked it up.

Before we had gone far, the two panniers were full.

Shan'am said to Yao Xiaoqing: "Xiaoqing, we are going back, and if we go in again, we are afraid of wild animals."

I didn't see any ginger, onion and garlic, so I really didn't want to go back like this.Looking down at her own small body and the two thin women, and at the somewhat gloomy forest ahead, Yao Xiaoqing had no choice but to agree to go back home.

I thought in my heart: I have to practice hard when I go back, otherwise I will only have to make food for the beasts.

Yun Amu and Shan Amu walked in front with their baskets on their backs, and Yao Xiaoqing walked behind them with a basket of vegetables.A pair of black grape-like eyes, searching around like a radar, trying to find plants similar to ginger, onion and garlic, even if there is one!

Seeing that she was about to go down the mountain, Yao Xiaoqing hadn't found what she was looking for. Suddenly, a clump of dark green things caught her eyes. She ran over a few steps, pulled out one and smelled it. The leek-like leaves and the white solitary head of garlic under it smiled and squinted, "Hey! It really is wild garlic."
