Chapter 7 Picking Chestnuts on the Mountain

A few days after the first frost, the mountains and forests in the early morning were covered with a white layer of snow and frost.

The hazy thick fog shrouded the entire mountain, surrounded by mountains, and the wooden house standing on the mountainside really gave people a feeling of being isolated from the world and cultivating immortals in dense forests.

The layers of mountains can't be seen at a glance, and the mountains outside the mountains make Ruan Qing feel that there is a kind of "at first, the mountains are mountains, and the water is water. In the past, the mountains are not mountains, and the water is not water. Now, I Look at mountains or mountains, look at water or water.”

These days, I have finished the greenhouse. I rented three or four cultivators on a land of more than ten acres in front of me. I will plow the land for you in one day, but it will cost money. It costs 500 yuan a day for the machine plus labor, and it costs tens of thousands of dollars to build a steel frame with the film.

The mountains and forests are very windy, and the trees attract the wind. It is not allowed to split bamboo and wood frames by myself. My mother has been nagging her for a long time about this matter. Once the girl makes a move, it is more than ten acres of land, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and it is true that my mother is afraid of spending money.

But it's hard to get rid of the water, and my mother has no choice but to go back on her word, so she can only talk in her ear, and it goes in one ear and out the other.

Thanks to her, she arranged the five-spirit formation. From the paddy field in front of the door to the whole mountain behind the house, with her house as the center, it was reflected around it, forming a large formation.

There are aura factors floating in the air every day.

In just a few days, the seeds in the greenhouse have sprouted.

Before that, I have to think about other things that can make money. I can't just sit and eat and wait for the vegetables in the greenhouse.

"Mom, where are you taking Lele? She's dressed like a little rice dumpling."

"A few days ago, I was going to go to the mountain to pick up chestnuts. I don't have time. The family has spent so much money these days. I want to pick up some chestnuts to sell, and I can make up for your loophole." Huang Mu hummed a few times Voice.

Here it comes again, "Mom, I paid the money, why do you feel bad about it, I don't feel bad about it yet."

"You still said, you prodigal daughter, you earn our family's money, my flesh hurts, oh no, no, my heart hurts when I think about it."

Mom, this stingy, is almost like that miser Yan Jiansheng.

"I'll go with you." Just to see if there are any other good things in the mountain. Selling chestnuts is indeed a good income. I don't know what about the chestnut trees that have been nourished by spiritual energy.

"If you don't open your mouth, I have to call you, earn back my greenhouse money, and go up the mountain to hunt chestnuts." Thinking of what happened a few days ago, Huang's mother got stuck in her chest again and yelled angrily One sentence.

Well, full of energy, nothing wrong with it.

In addition to a forest on the hill behind their house, there are several chestnut trees, locust trees, winter jujube trees, etc., all of which were transplanted by my father from the mountains when I was young. After more than ten years, It could have come to fruition long ago.

I have to say that these trees are really powerful. The fruit that hangs every winter is seven or eight hundred catties, not to mention that after so many years, they have reproduced so many seedlings, not to mention the output .

Right now is the time for chestnuts to bear fruit, and it is estimated that they will all be gone in a few days.

Lele looked excited. After waiting for so long, he was finally going up the mountain. He held a small basket in his hand, and put a pair of small gloves in the basket. No one would let him help him, so he climbed up by twisting his little buttocks.

After all, she grew up in the mountains since she was a child, and with the blessing of true energy all over her body, she was walking like flying, and she left the four of them behind in a short while.

The chestnut tree is near the mountain col, and there is a piece of flat land over there. My father planted all the fruit trees there. Standing on the rocks, looking down, he saw tall trees, lush and lush, exuding the fragrance of greenery. The vitality, in her eyes, is the air of the wood spirit lingering round and round.

Lele couldn't move anymore, she lay on Ruan Jingtian's back, saw her, and shouted vigorously, "Auntie, Auntie, don't run away!"

"Grandpa, let's work harder and compare Auntie down, let's go!"

"Lele, don't make trouble. There is no easy way to run in this mountain. Don't make things difficult for your grandpa. If you want to chase after your aunt, come down and run by yourself." Ruan Taoyuan slapped him on the buttocks.

"No, no, grandpa is carrying his back, Lele is tired and has no strength."

Suddenly, Lele pointed to the big tree in the distance and shouted, "Chestnut, chestnut, Lele's favorite chestnut, grandpa, let Lele down, Lele is going to pick up chestnuts."

The child is so fussy, he says he has no energy for a while, and when he sees something new, the fuss comes back again, I have to say, this kid is really full of energy.

"Lele, slow down." Ruan Taoyuan followed behind and shouted.

"Auntie, mom, don't worry about it." Lele ran away without looking back.

Several people were wearing rubber shoes. The mountain road was full of thorn bushes. If one was not careful, they would get stuck in the shoes. Only by wearing rubber shoes can the feet be protected from the pain of the flesh, but they will also be stuffy.

With Lele on his back, Ruan Qing shuttled through the forest, like a deer in the forest, with light feet and no roughness.

As soon as you enter the forest, you can hear the sound of "rustling, rustling" in your ears. It is close to the col, and the style here is very big. Even the tall chestnut trees are swaying with the wind. When the wind blows, hanging on the tree The chestnuts fell down one by one, comparable to falling objects from a height, and it hurts when it hits the forehead.

Thanks to Ruan Qing's agility, he avoided the chestnut rain, "Wow, auntie, there are a lot of chestnuts."

There is no need to beat, the ground is densely packed with chestnuts, not to mention looking up, the fruits on the trees are full and full, there is no gap at all, and the entire forest is covered in darkness. It's raining.

"Auntie, I want to beat chestnuts, and I also want to watch chestnut rain." Lele's mind was occupied by the scene just now, and she wanted to experience chestnut rain again.

"Then you find a place to hide, put on your hat, and open your umbrella." Ruan Qing was also eager to try, she also wanted to hear the sound of this chestnut tree.

Finding a stick in his hand, he chose the largest chestnut tree. Ruan Qing held the stick in his hand and hit it on the trunk with a "snap". The trunk made a humming sound, and the whole tree trembled Suddenly, there was a sound of "crawl clatter" in the woods, and those plump chestnuts wrapped in thorny shells fell to the ground like raindrops, this melodious sound made Ruan Qing very relieved.

Seeing that there were no chestnuts falling, Lele emerged from one side and shouted, "Comrade Xiao Ruan, are you safe?"

Seeing the little guy's frightened and golden eyes, Ruan Qingle said, "It's safe, Captain Lele, you can come out now."

In the past two days, they watched the Wangwang team again, and the kid was fascinated, so the family insisted on calling him the leader of the band.

After confirming that no chestnuts had fallen, Lele walked over on catwalks, squatting on the ground, her chubby little face was so cute, her chins were squeezed out, her chubby little hands were wearing blue gloves, and she took a piece of chestnut. Put one in the basket.

"Auntie, it looks like a little hedgehog, with thorns on the outside and a hard shell inside."

At this time, parents also came, followed by Ruan Taoyuan, "Why do I think there are more people this year than last year?"

Mother Huang clicked her tongue, looking at the chestnuts on the ground, squirrels and other small things scurrying around in the forest, she felt that she should have brought a basket today, the basket was too small to hold it at all.

I heard that the chestnuts in this market are sold for seven or eight yuan a catty. How much are the chestnuts in this forest?

Immediately, seeing Huang's mother with open eyes, the haze that had been suppressed in her heart for several days disappeared.

The smile on his face went behind his ears.
