Chapter 107: Digging Bamboo Shoots Becomes Popular
Uncle Lin acted quickly. As soon as he arrived at the new house and saw the village head, he asked him to help invite people.
The village head did not refuse. When he heard that they were looking for someone to dig a well, he went back and loaded his ox cart, then set off as he was familiar with the route.
Mu Feng built a stove, Luo Yu and Lin Luoluo pickled radishes, Uncle Lin was watching the progress at the new house, Aunt Lin was tidying up at home, and some families in the village were busy digging bamboo shoots in the mountains, and they were having a lot of fun!
When Brother He Gui delivered the jars, there happened to be some pickled ones. After unloading the jars, Mu Feng helped carry the pickled ones into the car.
Seeing Mu Feng building the stove, Brother He Gui did not leave immediately. Instead, he helped move a lot of stones and soil into the house. When they were enough for Mu Feng to build the stove, he drove the carriage away.
Luo Yu and the others did not rest today. They pickled the radishes and put them into jars. They cut them together with the aunts, pickled them, and put them into jars.
Mu Feng only built a stove by himself, and he would probably have to work on it for another day tomorrow.
But the good news is that a water source has been found near Luo Luo’s new house, in the backyard. This is extremely convenient compared to fetching water from the village.
The sun gradually rises, and the sunlight shines on your face, bringing a sense of warmth and comfort.
Luo Yu sighed, today is another sunny day!
After breakfast, I went to the old house and started another busy day.
Luo Yu looked at Mu Feng and said, "Mu Feng, how about I give you a hand? It's too tiring for you to do this alone."
Mu Feng shook his head, smiled and said, "I can finish it today by myself. Brother He Gui helped to move the stones yesterday, so I can put it up by myself. This is heavy and dirty, so you can do your thing!"
"That's fine. If you need my help, just call me!"
Mu Feng smiled and nodded, then went to work.
Luo Yu had just started working when the aunts came. After saying hello, they went back to their own work.
Luoluo arrived a little later. After all, today they were building a house and digging a well at the same time, so they needed to prepare more. She helped prepare the food at home before coming.
"Luoluo, I'm busy at home, so you can come over in the afternoon and help your aunt."
Luo Luo chuckled: "I have already helped prepare the food at home. My mother urged me to come here."
"OK then!"
By later in the day, Mu Feng had already set up the stove. He would now do some repairs and try to light a fire tomorrow.
After Luo Yu finished her work, Luoluo and the aunts went back, and she also prepared to go back to cook.
Just as I turned around, I saw an auntie bringing peeled bamboo shoots to sell: "Luo Yu, we have peeled bamboo shoots, do you have a time scale now?"
Luo Yu naturally did not refuse. She smiled and asked Mu Feng to bring the scale over. She went back to the house to get paper and pen.
Then they saw the men carrying it over and putting it on the scale together with Mu Feng.
After weighing, Mu Feng wrote down the name and quantity, and agreed that it was one penny per pound. Luo Yu took out the copper coins and prepared to pay them.
Aunt Wang and her husband weighed a total of 231 kilograms. Luo Yu counted out 231 coins and handed them to Aunt Wang.
The other couple, the He family, had more than 170 kilograms, not as much as Aunt Wang's family. After all, they went to dig it up that day, and Luo Yu also paid them.
The two families took the silver with a smile and kept weighing it on the way back, fearing that they were dreaming.
They can earn several hundred coins a day in the mountains, which is much more than working in the town, but it is more tiring. They have to go into the mountains early, carry the fruits back, eat, and then start peeling.
Those from other families who have not come to sell yet are carried back from the mountains. The elderly and women peel the fruits at home, while the men go up the mountains to continue digging and peeling.
In the past few days, many people came to harvest bamboo shoots, and Mu Feng was too busy to get away, so Luo Yu asked them to come together before dinner so that they could harvest them together.
Luo Yu also told the aunts who helped her cut radishes that they should stop cutting radishes for the time being and go up the mountain to dig bamboo shoots to earn more money.
Looking at other families, they could no longer contain their excitement. After hearing Luo Yu's words, they went home and urged their families to go to the mountains to dig bamboo shoots.
When the villagers saw that they were all going to dig bamboo shoots, they asked around and found out that Luo Yu's family was collecting bamboo shoots at one cent per pound, so they also joined in.
So whenever they saw a bamboo forest in the mountains that they had never been to before, they would go in to dig bamboo shoots without any fear. Some even went to the bamboo forests near other villages to dig bamboo shoots.
However, no one went to dig bamboo shoots in the main house of the Luo family. Firstly, Luo Fang's uncle and aunt had come and had been staying at their house for several days; secondly, they felt that getting up early and working late to dig bamboo shoots was too tiring, so they gave up.
Luo Yu didn't have time to deal with them. If they dug it up and sold it to her, she would have to think about whether to take it or not!
Because there were too many bamboo shoots, Luo Yu couldn't cook them all, so he called Aunt Lin, Yun Niang and the headman's wife to come and help cook them. After cooking, they dried them in the sun and then pickled them.
Luo Yu and Mu Feng were busy until Luo Luo's new house was built and a banquet was planned for the next two days, only then did they take a break.
The villagers feel the same way, because the new batch of bamboo shoots have been almost all dug up, and they estimate that they will have to wait until the next rain before they can dig more.
It was a rare opportunity to rest during these two days, so Luo Yu didn't have to get up early and go to bed late. He slept very well today.
Luo Ci is very well behaved. She knows that these days her brothers and sisters have not gotten up yet even though the sun has risen for a long time.
She would get up by herself, holding her clothes and go out to play with the rabbits. When she was hungry, she would find candy for herself.
When Mu Feng got up, he saw Luo Ci's clothes aside. Fortunately she was basking in the sun, so he went over and put clothes on her.
Luo Ci was very happy to see Mu Feng got up. She put on her clothes and said, "Brother, sister hasn't gotten up yet. She's still sleeping!"
Mu Feng scratched her nose lovingly and said, "Sister is tired, let her sleep a little longer; Ah Ci is great, she didn't wake up sister, are you hungry? I'll make lunch for you!"
Although Luo Ci had eaten the candy, she was also hungry at this time: "Well, Ah Ci is very good, I am hungry."
Mu Feng took her to the kitchen and boiled water to wash her face.
With Mu Feng’s cooking skills, it’s impossible for him to stir-fry, but he can still cook noodles quite well.
He cooked noodles and ate them himself and Luo Ci first. He rolled out Luo Yu's portion and put it aside to cook after Luo Yu woke up.
It was not until noon that Luo Yu woke up because her stomach was growling due to hunger.
Seeing that Luo Ci was not on the bed, she thought that Mu Feng might have carried her away.
She staggered out rubbing her eyes, looked up at the sky, felt dizzy, and then looked at the shadow cast by the sun. She realized that she had slept for so long that it was already noon.
When Mu Feng saw her get up, he thought that she must be very tired to sleep until this hour.
"Wake up, I'll cook noodles for you, wash your face first."
Luo Yu touched his face embarrassedly, thinking it shouldn’t be that bad!
After washing her face, Luo Ci saw that she was up, so she nestled in her arms; she hugged her and kissed her, then said, "Ah Ci, were you good this morning?"
"Ah Ci is very good!"
The two sisters were like this, talking to each other in a very warm and cozy manner, until Mu Feng spoke, and then she let go of Luo Ci.
"You must be hungry. Come over and have some noodles first!" Mu Feng said worriedly.
