Abandoned Wife Pastoral General Dotes on His Wife

Chapter 11 Discovering Zizania
"Okay, I'll go now." Uncle Zhang was assigned a task and went out with a hatchet.

Aunt Zhang dug out a half-old net from the utility room.Lin Xi found a pair of scissors, adjusted the size, and cut through the network cable.

Draw three lines, and draw a big umbrella shape.

The little guy found a small mat and spread it on the ground, moved the building blocks and sat on the ground to play with it.

Lin Xi rushed into Zhang Qijie's room again, and came out again with a blank sheet of paper in her hand.

The umbrella-shaped ground cage and long ground cage she drew, as well as a small deck chair.At this time, everyone came back from the outside.

Uncle Zhang was responsible for splitting the bamboo pieces, Zhang Qilin and Zhang Qixuan fixed the bamboo frame, and Lin Xi and Aunt Zhang fixed it with needle-sewn netting thread.

Everything was going on in an orderly manner, and a few minutes later, an umbrella-shaped closed ground cage and three ground cages of about [-] meters were sewn together by several people.Lin Xi used scissors to poke a hole the size of a bowl in the corner of the umbrella.The long ground cage has a living mouth, and only one end needs to be bound with a heavy object.

Lin Xi thought about the delivery tomorrow, gritted her teeth and rushed into the kitchen, chopped up a big pig bone with a bone cutter, poured it into a wooden barrel in a basin, mixed it with worms and mixed it with a wooden stick.

After several people packed up, the little guy raised his head and asked, "Mother, are you going to fish for shrimp?"

"Well, let's play with my third uncle at home." Lin Xi walked to the front with the wooden barrel and the cage in his arms.Aunt Zhang followed behind with a vegetable basket.Zhang Qilin walked last with several other cages on his back.Zhang Qixuan and Zhang Qiyun each carried baskets, and the wooden barrel followed behind.

"Xuan, are you in time to deliver so much goods tomorrow? Do you want to hire someone to catch shrimps?" Zhang Qiyun was very happy to see that his family had a living, but he was worried when he thought that he would have to deliver so many goods tomorrow .

"Father, let's try first. If it doesn't work, it's not too late to ask someone for help." Zhang Qixuan said without turning his head, watching Lu's thoughts change: This is a good opportunity for Lin Xi to fight for their family. The eldest brother is about to get engaged, and he is also the eldest, and if he doesn't save some money, the daughter-in-law is still gone.

"En." Zhang Qiyun looked up at the second son who was walking in front, and suddenly realized that this son was actually a head taller than himself.The child grows up, and the mind is alive.

Lin Xi put the mixed bait into the ground cage, and Zhang Qilin found some weedy river banks to put down the ground cages and pressed them down with big stones.

The others dug pits six or seven meters apart and sprinkled bait.The water plants in this area are lush and duckweed is piled up.Very quiet, very few people come.Lin Xi carried a small hoe and separated the one-meter-high green broad-leaved plants.Alas, why does this look so much like wild rice.She bent down with the hoe and pulled out the bottom of it, revealing a section of white wild rice stem.Wow, how lucky is it.Lin Xi rolled up her sleeves in twos and twos, bent her head and clapped her hands.It is best to put the petals in one place behind you.

"Girl Xi, where are you?" Aunt Zhang's anxious cry came from a distance.

Lin Xi raised her hand and patted her forehead: she actually forgot the business.

Standing up, he stretched out his hand and waved upwards: "I'm here, aunt."

After a while, Aunt Zhang and the others walked over together, and saw a pile of white and green long-leaved plants piled up on the open space by the bank.

"What's this?" Aunt Zhang stared round, pointing at the bamboo shoot and asked in a daze.

"Auntie, this is called Zizania azalea. It grows near the water. It can be used for cooking." Lin Xi peeled off a piece of white Zizania azalea and showed it to Aunt Zhang.

Aunt Zhang took it in surprise, and asked uncertainly, "Girl Xi, how do you know so much?"

Lin Xi smiled lightly, glanced at the faces of several people, coughed lightly, and pretended to be mysterious: "Didn't I sleep for three days? In fact, I had a long dream. In the dream, there was a man with a white beard. My grandfather taught me to recognize herbs and edible plants, and he never stopped from morning till night. Unexpectedly, when I woke up, I could really remember a lot. Like astragalus, honeysuckle, crayfish, wild rice and so on. "

"That's it, we understand." The smile in Aunt Zhang's eyes deepened, she clasped her hands together, and bowed in the direction of Qingshan Town, "Thank you, old god, for your guidance!"

Lin Xi watched, and suddenly remembered what Aunt Zhang said about going to the temple in Qingshan Town to fulfill her vow next month.

"There are still so many over there, are you harvesting them all?" Zhang Qixuan looked at the green expanse.

"No, come to harvest early tomorrow morning. Today I mainly fish for shrimps. Bro, have the tied branches been put in the water? And have the baskets been put in the water?" Lin Xi belatedly remembered about the shrimp fishing.

"It's all released, and I caught more than a dozen just now." The afternoon sun slanted on Zhang Qilin's dark and tough face, which was extraordinarily dazzling.

"Leave one person here to watch the fishing rod, let's catch it by the ditch." Lin Xi dared not be careless, and first cooperated with Xiangmanlou, and it must be completed beautifully.The first shot was fired, and the road ahead will be easy.

Zhang Qilin stayed to fish for shrimp.Lin Xi and the others returned to the ditch, one for each ditch.Aunt Zhang stood on the shore and was in charge of carrying the bucket.Seeing that Lin Xi blocked both ends of the ditch with a small hoe, and drained the water in the ditch with a bucket, she leaned over and grabbed the crayfish one by one.
