201 Home Place
"Sister, what is this, can I eat it?" Gu Ningping also imitated Gu Xiaowan, stretched out his hand and grabbed it hard.
What kind of thing is this? It's so soft. Gu Ningping picked a few flowers and felt a little discouraged. This thing rotted away when he caught it, but looking at my sister, one after another, the picked ones were all intact.
"You can eat..." Gu Xiaowan answered her brother's words while burying her head in picking carefully.
Gu Ningping saw that the fungus picked by her sister was big and fast, and it was completely different from herself, and it would rot as soon as it was picked.
Seeing this, Gu Xiaowan hurriedly taught the two of them how to pick them. There are so many fungus here, she can't pick them all by herself.
Moreover, Gu Xiaowan also wanted to finish the harvest soon, for fear that someone would pass by and discover them, fearing that they would never be able to turn again in the future.
This fungus has extremely high nutritional value and is very rare.
On this ridge, and on other ridges, Gu Xiaowan, three sisters and two brothers, worked together and worked together for a whole morning. They didn't even wash their clothes, and finally picked up a full basket. The baskets that Gu Ningping brought in were all full.
what!
After squatting on the ground all morning, Gu Xiaowan only felt numb in her knees and dizzy, but seeing the basket full of ground fungus, Gu Xiaowan couldn't mention how excited she was.
Gu Xiaowan was particularly excited when she thought that she could eat ground fungus at noon.
However, the fungus here is delicious, but it is difficult to wash. There is a lot of fine sand and mud hidden in the base of the fungus. If it is not cleaned, the mouth will be full of gravel and it will be difficult to swallow.
Gu Xiaowan carried the basket, came to the river, poured all the fungus on a large clean and flat stone, then washed the basket with the river water, put the basket aside, squatted on the stone, and dipped a little bit in the river water. Clean up the ground mushrooms.
Gu Ningping was not idle, and washed the clothes and quilts he brought. Gu Xiaowan didn't stop them from letting them do it. This poor child has long been in charge, and these children should also share the chores at home.
Gu Xiaowan single-mindedly cleaned up the ground mushrooms.
This basket of ground mushrooms is quite a lot. Enough to eat for a long time. If you can't finish eating it, you can dry it in the sun, save it, and keep it for a year.
This thing is only available in the spring rain season, and it is also divided into time and place. Moreover, the number is not large, which is a very rare thing.
Gu Xiaowan planned to take a good look around the village and the mountains during this period of time to find the fungus. It is a delicacy to keep at home. If there are too many, maybe they can be sold to the town, and they can be sold for a good price.
When all the work was over, Gu Xiaowan and the others were also hungry and dizzy. They hurried home and cooked a large bowl of ground fungus. It was the first time to eat the ground fungus. Then, I cooked a bowl of gnocchi with this fungus, and the children ate it with relish.
"Sister, this thing is really fresh!" Gu Ningping was the first to see this thing edible, the fungus floating on the soup was fragrant.
"Sister, it's delicious!" Gu Xiaoyi also drank the soup, shouting that it was delicious.
"It's delicious and eat more. Let's go around in the past few days to see if we can still find this thing." Gu Xiaowan didn't stop, and said while drinking.
"Okay..." Gu Ningping and Gu Xiaoyi almost agreed in unison. This thing is delicious, so I'll take some more and go home.
After lunch, Gu Xiaowan dried the washed fungus in a ventilated place. This way, I hang it at home, and no one sees it, and I'm not afraid that someone will come to ask.
Originally, after eating, Gu Xiaowan planned to let the two younger brothers and sisters rest, but Gu Ningping and Gu Xiaoyi did not agree, and they were about to go out with a basket.
Seeing that the two children were so enthusiastic, Gu Xiaowan couldn't refuse, so she locked the door and went out with the two children.
On the ridge that was picked this morning, Gu Xiaowan still had some places to look at, but this time, she rushed directly to the place in the morning.
When I went in the afternoon, a few farmers came to the field next door, presumably taking advantage of the good weather to take care of the farmland. Some are digging the ground with a hoe, and some are sowing.
Spring is here, and it's time for farming. The villagers in the village are a little diligent, and they all go to the ground early.
Gu Xiaowan and Gu Ningping walked carefully on the ridge.
In my heart, I was thinking, so many people are here, what if they are seen picking fungus from the ground by themselves.

Gu Xiaowan and Gu Ningping walked carefully on the ridge.
"Hey, Gu family girl, what are you doing out here..."
Gu Xiaowan was thinking about it, but saw a man in his thirties who was holding his trouser legs and trousers.
The man was wearing a patched garment, and because of the old color, there was no mud sticking on it. The bottom trouser legs have been rolled up to the knees, and the trouser legs are covered with mud. It was still spring, but this man was wearing a thin underwear. It seemed that he was working too hot, so he took off his outer clothes.
Gu Xiaowan naturally recognized this person. This person was Liang Yao's head, Liang Carpenter.
When Gu Xiaoyi disappeared, this person helped him find it for a day. I heard Aunt Zhang say that this person is honest and honest, and has a good relationship with the neighbors.
.
Even if Liang Yao's family had been married to the Liang family for so many years, and they had not given birth to a son and a half daughter, Liang Carpenter would not divorce his wife. From this point of view, it can be seen that this Liang Carpenter is an honest and decent person.
Gu Xiaowan was naturally very grateful to him, and smiled at him: "Uncle Liang..." She just shouted enthusiastically, but did not answer him directly, what are they doing here. Of course, the carpenter beam no longer asked.
Carpenter Liang wiped the sweat from his forehead, then pointed to a piece of open space not far away and said, "It's already spring, is your home still planting this year?"
my home? Gu Xiaowan then recalled how she had forgotten some things in her family.
Following Carpenter Liang's direction, Gu Xiaowan looked over.
