Joe's Farming

Although it was a picnic, the conditions were limited and the tableware was still so "primitive".

But everyone was very satisfied with the meal.

Especially the children, they think this bamboo tube rice is the most delicious rice they have eaten this year.

"Little Daddy, can we come to the mountain more often to roast bamboo rice?"

Gu Xiaoyan asked.

"You can come occasionally, but not often. I will send you to town to study in two days."

Qiao Yu said.

Gu Xiaoyan nodded sensibly after hearing this: "It doesn't matter, as long as I can eat it!"

"Little Daddy, are we going there the day after tomorrow?"

Qiao Xing asked.

Qiao Yu nodded.

He had asked Xu Yuan to inquire before, and found out that the best private school in Taoyuan Town was Qingfeng Private School, which would open the day after tomorrow.

When talking about private schools, Xu Yuan began to give the three children some scientific knowledge on the spot.

"There are three schools in Taoyuan Town, Qingfeng, Xiaoya and Mingde. The teacher at Qingfeng School is the best. He once taught a top scholar. Your father probably wants you to study at Qingfeng School."

Qiao Yu nodded vigorously at the side: "When the time comes, you must study hard and don't neglect your studies. However, I am very relieved about the three of you. Instead, I want to advise you not to study too hard."

Several adults laughed when they heard this.

"Yeah, I've never seen more sensible children than these three."

Anko praised.

Qiao Yu also smiled and said, "Just think of it as going to a new place to make friends and broaden your horizons. Daddy won't ask you to study and take the imperial examination. The most important thing is to have fun learning!"

"Don't worry, little daddy. I will take good care of my younger brothers and sisters." Qiao Xing promised.

Gu Xiaoxue: "Don't worry, little daddy, I will study hard and not embarrass you and daddy."

Qiao Yu held his forehead with his hand.

"Oxlade, don't think about embarrassing us. Just study hard. Daddy won't force you to do well or not."

Gu Xiaoxue finally understood what Qiao Yu meant and nodded vigorously.

Gu Xiaoyan smiled and said, "Little Daddy, I want to study hard and learn well."

Qiao Yu encouraged: "Then study hard, Yan Bao will definitely be able to do it!"

After chatting, it was still early and everyone didn’t want to go home as it was a rare opportunity for them to climb up here.

Xu Ning looked at the mushrooms that had not a single bite left and said, "How about we go pick some mushrooms?"

Xu Yuan's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Aning is right, let's go pick mushrooms, mushrooms are really delicious."

"Little Daddy, we also want to go pick mushrooms."

"Dry it for Daddy to eat in the winter!"

The children still remember the soup made from dried mushrooms that Qiao Yu bought in the winter.

Li Xin also said: "Brother, although I just picked poisonous mushrooms, I also want to pick mushrooms."

Qiao Yu looked at Gu Feng. After all, it was Gu Feng who brought those mushrooms just now.

"I'll take you there, but there probably aren't many left."

Gu Feng said.

"It's okay. It's close to the bamboo forest. If you can't find anything to eat, you can pick bamboo shoots."

Gu Gang added on the side.

"That's great. I was just thinking that the bamboo shoots you picked aren't enough for all of us to have a meal together."

Hong Xiu smiled.

Gu Gang didn't feel embarrassed, as he was just collecting firewood and picked bamboo shoots at the same time.

"Don't worry, there are new bamboo shoots growing over there, enough for you to pick."

Gu Gang said to Hong Xiu.

Everyone became more interested when they heard this.

Everyone used spring water to put out the fire, then put their tools on their backs and followed Gu Feng and Gu Gang towards the bamboo forest.

This bamboo forest is even larger than the place where Gu Feng took Qiao Yu to dig winter bamboo shoots.

Thin, pointed bamboo shoots are sprouting out of the ground and are everywhere.

Only Xu Ning and Xu Yuan followed Gu Feng a little further forward to look for mushrooms.

The rest of the people were stopped by the vibrant bamboo shoots.

No wonder the eldest brother just said “picking” bamboo shoots.

Qiao Yu recalled that he had to dig bamboo shoots last year.

Because winter bamboo shoots will only have a small tip coming out, you have to dig underground to get the bamboo shoots hidden underneath.

But now, everyone can just gently break off the roots of the emerging bamboo shoots with their hands, and the shoots can be picked!

For a moment, the sound of breaking bamboo shoots was heard everywhere.

Very pleasant to the ears!

Every click means a delicious bamboo shoot!

The children were extremely happy, including Li Xin, who finally experienced the joy of foraging in the mountains.

On the other side, Xu Ning and Xu Yuan were not doing so well.

Xu Yuan didn't allow Ning to bend down to look for it, so he asked him to sit aside and rest, and then followed Gu Feng to look for it carefully.

The laughter of Qiao Yu and others could be heard not far away.

"Ah, little daddy! Look, I picked a lot!"

This is Gu Xiaoyan.

“Awesome!”

"There are so many bamboo shoots here, I can't pull them all out, I can't pull them all out!"

This is Li Xin.

Xu Yuan glanced at the lonely mushroom of unknown origin in his basket, and then looked at the small bunch of mushrooms in Gu Feng's hand.

"Aning, let's go back and pick bamboo shoots too! I feel like picking mushrooms isn't for me. It's like I'm blind."

Xu Yuan walked back to Xu Ning and suggested.

Gu Feng pursed his lips and smiled: "You guys go ahead, and tell Qiao Er that I'm here and will be there later."

"it is good!"

Xu Yuan agreed immediately, holding Xu Ning's hand and walking slowly towards the bamboo forest.

When they saw a large pile of bamboo shoots in front of Qiao Yu, they were all surprised.

"Brother Qiao, we just left not long ago! This pile of..."

Qiao Yu pointed to the bamboo shoots that filled the bamboo forest.

"Go ahead and pull it out! I'm enjoying the sound just sitting here!"

Qiao Yu also tried to pull out a few bamboo shoots just now. It was very easy to get started, but he felt uncomfortable squatting and couldn't hold it for long. So he simply withdrew from the team pulling bamboo shoots and concentrated on looking at the pile of bamboo shoots.

"Aning, you should rest here with Brother Qiao for a while. I will go pick some more bamboo shoots for you!"

Xu Yuan said immediately.

Xu Ning nodded obediently: "Husband, go ahead, don't worry. There are so many bamboo shoots."

Suddenly, a cry of surprise came from the front: "Ah! Toadstool!"

It’s Hongxiu’s voice!

Qiao Yu and Xu Yuan and his wife immediately rushed over following the sound.

I saw everyone carefully surrounding a white fungus that was emitting a rotten smell.

That mushroom is very special. The cap is gray-black, and a white mesh extends from under the cap, like white lace, which looks very beautiful.

But now the white mycelium and the cap have some sticky and melted traces, and the mushroom is covered with ants and small flying insects.

It looks particularly poisonous!

Li Xin and the others breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Qiao Yu coming.

Hongxiu pointed at the gray-black mushrooms surrounding the white mushroom and said:

“I…just saw these gray-black mushrooms all around here, and was about to pick some, but then I saw this one that had already grown.

It tastes weird, looks weird, and has these bugs.

I recognized it right away; it was a toadstool!"
