Chapter 23 Taking my brother for a walk in the mountains
Chen Qingxin thought about it and finally nodded: "Okay."
In the morning, my mother and sister had to wash the family's old clothes and quilts, so they naturally had no time to teach.
Besides, she didn't plan to walk too far today, so she just went for a walk around the southern mountain.
It shouldn't be a problem if we don't go into the mountains and bring my second brother along.
Hearing that her brother could go out with her elder sister, Chen Qingying also looked at her elder sister eagerly.
She was decisively rejected: "No! Qingying, you stay home and help mother wash clothes. I will bring you some wild fruits when I come back."
Speaking of this, Chen Qingxin remembered that he brought back a lot of wild fruits from the mountain the day before yesterday.
So he put out a big bowl of hairy chestnuts, 6 wild pears, a handful of hawthorns, and a few wild sweet potatoes.
Then he told Chen Li: "Mother, I'll put these quilts, iron pots, etc. away first.
There are so many wooden basins, they are too eye-catching, put a few away to avoid jealousy. "
Chen Li nodded in appreciation: "Xin'er is really thoughtful.
Suddenly having so many good things, wouldn't it be easy to attract people's attention?
Put it away, put away the bowls too, the three of us will just have these wild fruits for lunch, no need to cook."
So, Chen Qingxin put all the valuables into the space, leaving behind 6 meat buns.
"Mother, these buns are for your lunch. My second brother and I probably won't be back until the afternoon."
After saying this, the brother and sister each carried a backpack and headed towards the mountains.
"Sister, this little shovel is so fast! With just a light touch, the wild vegetables come down." Chen Qingwen picked up a vegetable he had just picked and threw it into the backpack behind him.
Chen Qingxin raised the corners of his lips proudly, and said without turning his head:
"Don't rush to pick wild vegetables now. Go into the mountains first. You don't want your backpack to get heavier and heavier, and you don't want to be farther and farther away from home, do you?"
Chen Qingwen was stunned when he heard this. After a moment of hesitation, he understood the reason:
"Hehe! That's right, elder sister's teaching is very true, let's come back and pick it.
It is still important to hurry up now.
But where are we going?"
“Just walk around, without a destination, wherever you go is fine.
Pay attention to your surroundings.
Forget it, stop for a moment, I'll help you bandage your legs to prevent the bugs from getting into the warehouse."
Chen Qingxin tore off a few strips of the coarse cloth he bought yesterday, tied up his own and his brother's legs and feet, and then continued to move forward.
She used her dagger to carve a stick and handed it to her second brother:
"Take it, walk with the stick, it will make you walk more steadily, and it can also protect you."
Chen Qingwen happily took it: "Thank you, elder sister!"
The brother and sister walked about five miles in the dense forest and then stopped.
Because Chen Qingxin discovered a big chestnut tree!
She touched the tree trunk with her little hand and said silently in her heart: "Collect!"
"Wow! Is it really possible? Oh my god, this is so interesting!" Chen Qingxin was as happy as a real child, marching on the spot to express his excitement at the moment.
"The big tree is gone, elder sister!" Chen Qingwen stood in front of his elder sister with a shovel in one hand and a stick in the other. He looked at the tree pit with an expression as if he had seen a ghost and made a protective posture.
Chen Qingxin smiled awkwardly: "Um, this? Don't be afraid, my elder sister's Qiankun bag seems to be very stretchable and can hold a lot of things.
The tree has been harvested. If you want to eat chestnuts in the future, you can pick them right after you eat them. "
Chen Qingwen asked suspiciously, "Are you saying this fruit can be eaten?"
"Yes, these big ones on the ground have the same taste as the small ones I left for mother this morning."
Chen Qingxin picked up a large chestnut, peeled off the shell, revealing the tender yellow kernel, put it into his mouth, and chewed it with great enjoyment:
"Mmm! It's crunchy and sweet, so delicious! Qingwen, try it, it's really sweet."
With an attitude of giving it a try, Chen Qingwen followed his elder sister's example, peeled one and put it in his mouth.
"Crack!"
The boy's eyebrows immediately flew up: "It's so delicious, elder sister, this chestnut is really delicious!"
Chen Qingwen peeled several and ate them, "It's quite filling!"
"They're delicious, why don't you pick them up quickly? The ones that fall to the ground are the best. The grains are full and they fall from the tree only when they are ripe."
Chen Qingxin led his brother to pick up all the chestnuts that had fallen on the ground before continuing on their journey.
However, she threw a chestnut into the tree pit, hoping that a chestnut tree would grow next year.
After walking about three miles forward, we came to a bamboo forest.
Chen Qingxin took out two machetes and two pairs of gloves: "Qingwen, put on the gloves and start working in a while."
"Sister, what are we going to do?" the young man asked in confusion.
Chen Qingxin smiled mysteriously: "You will know later."
After saying that, he started to cut bamboos, specifically choosing those of similar thickness.
Then, the bamboo branches are shaved with a knife, leaving each bamboo pole the same length.
"Qingwen, you are responsible for chopping bamboo branches. When chopping, keep a distance and don't touch your legs. Just do as I do." Chen Qingxin demonstrated to his brother.
"I know. Do you think I'm stupid? It's not like I haven't chopped wood before." Chen Qingwen said proudly.
Seeing that he was chopping the wood quite skillfully, I felt relieved.
I also put in all my effort and started working.
They didn't stick to one place, but jumped and chopped.
In this way, new bamboo shoots will grow next year and it will be a dense bamboo forest again.
Cutting bamboo is the purpose of going up the mountain today.
She wanted to surround the wasteland she bought, as well as the bamboo house, with a bamboo fence.
Next time when you take the bamboo out for use, if someone asks you about it, just say that you bought it with your own money.
No one would believe that a little girl less than ten years old like her could go to the mountains and cut so many bamboos.
When felling, the stubble is left very low, and there is no visible trace of cutting from the outside.
The bamboo roots, branches and leaves were all tied up and placed in the space to be used as firewood.
During the Dashun Dynasty, there was no law prohibiting deforestation.
However, she is a person with life experience in the 23rd century, and she believes deep down that deforestation is illegal.
Even if there are cheating tools, you should still be cautious and try to make sure there are no loopholes.
The reason for bringing my second younger brother along was, firstly, to train him, and secondly, to let him know that he had an amazing sister who could support him.
"Sister, are we cutting bamboo to build a new house?" As Chen Qingwen spoke, his hands did not slow down at all.
Chen Qingxin shook his head like a rattle:
"No, no! New houses are built with bricks and tiles.
These bamboos are used to enclose land.
Tomorrow my eldest sister will ask someone to see where there is a specialty store?
We also need to find a craftsman to build the house."
"Eldest sister, have you forgotten? Liu the bricklayer in our village knows how to build houses!
The village chief's house was built under his leadership." Chen Qingwen reminded.
"Now that you mention it, I remember that Liu the bricklayer seems to be the cousin of the village chief, and the two have a good relationship."
Chen Qingwen stood up straight and wiped his sweat: "Yes, just look at the village chief's house and you will know that he put a lot of thought into it."
"Then I'll go back tonight and discuss it with the village chief. I'll buy the materials myself and let them do the cooking, so I don't have to worry about meals." Chen Qingxin said this without slowing down his movements of chopping bamboo.
Chen Qingwen looked ashamed: "Elder sister, you can make the decision. Qingwen's ability is limited and he can't help much. Alas!"
