Pastoral Valley Fragrance

Chapter 106

When Gu Yu and An Jinxuan returned home, it was already time for the sun to set.

Mrs. Xu Qin was carrying a wooden bucket to water the vegetable fields in the yard. Mrs. Wang was cooking, while Xiaoman and Xiaohe were driving the chickens into the coop. Qin'er was alone, sitting under the eaves, borrowing Looking at the sky, he kept fiddling with the scissors, completely unaware of the movement around him.

Suddenly, she put down the scissors and opened the paper layer by layer, a pattern appeared in front of her eyes, and Qin'er yelled in a sweet voice, "Cousin Xiaoman! Come and see!"

Xiaoman and Xiaohe were called over by her, and Gu Yu also leaned over, and saw a simple carp in her hand, the pattern was very complete, but the carp looked fatter than the one Xiaoman cut for her. , but it is also a carp after all, Qin'er is very satisfied holding it and gesticulating there.

Xu Qinshi put away the wooden bucket, washed his hands, and came to look at it. After reading it, he chuckled and said, "Oh, Xiaoman's carp is a bit thinner, but Qin'er, your carp is a little too fat. It's about the same size as you." .”

Qin'er scratched her head and smiled naively, and suddenly said, "If this fish has a baby fish, won't it be fatter, just like my aunt."

This remark made everyone laugh out loud.

The days passed quietly, and two more days passed. The seedlings on Gu Yu's nursery ground had grown quite a bit, and she and An Jinxuan went into the mountain again to pick up some rotten fruits under the tree, and came back to bury them. On the other nursery ground with river mud.

An Jinxuan was busy with Gu Yu, but his heart was not at ease. He thought about what Mr. Miao said, and he knew it. There are many such fruit trees in this forest, but most of them are sour. If it is sour and astringent, it cannot be eaten, otherwise no one will come to pick it. If it encounters something that is not delicious, it will be so astringent that people's tongues will feel numb, and it seems that it will become much thicker.

He told Gu Yu about his worries, and Gu Yu was also stunned, what should I do about this?If the tree is planted at that time, the fruit it bears cannot be eaten, wouldn't it be a waste of land resources.

The two were at a loss for what to do.

After all, Gu Yu was still not reconciled, she thought about nothing else, after finally learning that this fruit was so useful, she wanted to try it even more, if no one else could grow it, she would If you can get it out, it's a unique business, and people can't snatch it away if they want to.

In the end, An Jinxuan thought of a way, "Gu Yu, the pits of the fruits we ate and threw on the ground, or you see, those that were picked up by some animals and left in the woods should have results That’s right, we searched around, and my second uncle brought me this tree. Once he said that he used to take this fruit core as a mark before, and put a tree on it after a while. If it becomes a tree, it is a row. If we find it, we will know whether the fruit it bears is edible or not. If we find all the fruit trees and cannot enter them, maybe it is Mr. Miao who said that they cannot be planted. gone."

Gu Yu has nothing to do now, she just thinks, she can't just rely on such a fruit tree, if the eight acres of her own land are planted with this fruit, it will be an orchard by then.As for An Jinxuan's suggestion, she also wanted to try it. After all, she was very reluctant to give up her seedling land right now.

Since he was looking for these fairy fruit trees, An Jinxuan didn't care too much. He originally wanted to let Gu Yu go home by himself, but Gu Yu refused anyway, thinking that if he didn't hurry up If you find it, maybe the fruit trees are all gone, so you won't be able to know whether it's sour or sweet.

The deeper the forest went, the quieter it became. After wandering around for a long time, there was nothing to gain, so he walked back again.

Gu Yu thought that this was not a solution after all, so he discussed with An Jinxuan to leave a mark in the forest, and the two of them slowly searched for it one by one, so that the chance of being missed would be much smaller.

Ever since, the two of them had this little secret. They went out every day, and searched slowly in the woods on the southern slope. Although they didn't find the fairy fruit tree, it was not without harvest. Those wild fungus and wild fungus, Occasionally there are some pheasants, after all, they did not return empty-handed.

There are more children in the family now, and Gu Yu can't stay all day long, the food is placed in the stove, and he is not afraid of the cold, if he is hungry, he will eat a bowl, only the family at dinner time The sons sat down to eat neatly, and no one found the whereabouts of these two people.

And An Jinxuan is used to being in the woods, so he doesn't have to worry about finding something to eat. Pheasants, wild rabbits, or the roots of those plants can always find something to eat. Gu Yu and him wandered in the woods every day, but I also like this kind of day of finding something to eat on the spot.

So a few more days passed.

Gu Yu's heart was already a little anxious, this southern slope had already searched for more than half of them, but still found nothing, occasionally there was a tree, and the fruit on the tree was almost gone, but it was unpalatable after a taste, so they continued I've been looking for it, but I can't find the rows and columns.

On this day, Gu Yu and An Jinxuan walked to noon, but still found nothing. Gu Yu was so tired that he stayed at the foot of the tree panting profusely with sweat. An Jinxuan walked a few steps and went up to a higher place, "Gu Yu, come quickly." , do you see that below, does it look like a fairy fruit?"

Gu Yu struggled to prop up his body, and moved to the place where An Jinxuan was standing. Only then did he realize that at some point in the forest, there was a ditch several feet wide. The place was condescending, and following An Jinxuan's hand, both of them saw the leaves, which were the same as those of the fairy fruit. There was another one more than ten or twenty meters away, so they found three or four. I breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that the sky really pays off, and finally let them find it.

The two walked along the slope in front of them, but they still didn't find any place that was slower. It would be too steep to go straight down. They didn't want to take the risk, so they kept walking.

An Jinxuan seemed to think of something, "I see, I said why the second uncle had to make a mark, you don't know, this place may be the gourd ditch, this ditch is like a gourd, the entrance is small, the more The deeper it goes in, we go forward from here, and we will be able to get in soon. You look at this gourd ditch, most of it was washed out when the mountain torrents came, otherwise why so many broken stones Sha, it's no wonder there aren't any big trees here, and those fairy fruits are so conspicuous."

Gu Yu was happy, thinking that since this fairy fruit can survive in such a harsh environment, it must not be too difficult to grow. Now she just wants to know whether the fruit of the tree directly grown from these cores can be planted. eat.

The two entered through the entrance of Hulugou, when a gust of wind blew, Gu Yu's frail body trembled, feeling that the wind was really weird, and she felt a little scared in her heart.

An Jinxuan came over to hold her back, "Don't be afraid of the rain, you can hardly see the sun here at any time, it is naturally shaded, and the wind will make it a bit cold. We will go out after we find those trees and pick some fruit."

Gu Yu calmed down a little bit, but walking on the stone ground, she saw dark forests all around, and the sunlight seemed to be very far away from her. She thought about the orchard in the future, so she went in bravely.

When walking in, An Jinxuan had a general direction, and it was not too difficult to find the tree, but Gu Yu was also very tired, and he kicked a small stone with his toe, and his toe was torn. Pain, she looked at the shoes under An Jinxuan's feet, she didn't know what kind of fur they were made of, but they were not bad, the main thing was that they wrapped his feet like a leather sock, and looked at him walking very freely.

Finally arrived under the tree, Gu Yu shouted excitedly: "Brother Jinxuan, look quickly! There are still fruits on this tree!"

An Jinxuan was also happy to see her so happy, "Look at this place is overcast, and the fruit will not ripen as quickly as the place where it is exposed to the sun." It was found that it was not high, only about two meters. It seemed that this place was too barren, so Gu Yu stepped on the ground and picked a fruit. Looking at the purple and purple color, he drooled, and he was thirsty even after walking for a long time , Bite it down, and spit it out quickly.

She then spit a few more mouthfuls, her tongue seemed to grow a lot, just like she had accidentally eaten a raw persimmon before.

An Jinxuan laughed haha, "You are so stupid, you don't know if it's delicious, but you still want to bite it down with such a big mouthful." After speaking, seeing the bitter look on Gu Yu's face, he felt a little distressed. It's hard for her not to eat or drink.

So, An Jinxuan looked around, asked Gu Yu to pick up some firewood, and looked around for food by himself.

Gu Yu was naturally so happy, thinking that with so many stones, it would be convenient to build a stone stove casually.Wild animals cannot be hunted in this place. An Jinxuan found a few familiar plants, picked up a sharp stone and dug there. There are also some small tendons, which look a bit like yams. When you peel off the skin, there is a film-like thing inside. After you break it off, the inside is pink and white. Gu Yu likes to eat this thing very much. It is called yam for the time being. .

The yam can be eaten when it is cooked, and it doesn’t cost salt. Gu Yu cut the yam into several pieces, found a branch to string them up, and the two of them moved two larger stones, used them as stools, and sat on them to light the fire. Start roasting.

Soon the scent came out, Gu Yu swallowed, and suddenly heard a chirping sound from behind, the hairs all over his body stood on end, An Jinxuan could see clearly, and his face turned pale with shock.
