Traveling through the famine, I stockpiled supplies like crazy
Chapter 71 Going into the Mountains to Find Wild Fruits
"Forget it! It will be many years before they can work! I'd better rely on myself now!"
"Wife, you can still count on me now!" Then he came closer to Xu Han...
The next morning, the two set out into the mountains, still bringing Heifeng and Heidian with them. The puppies were still too young and could not walk far!
After walking for about an hour, they finally reached the deep mountains. Outside the mountains, Xu Han could lead Heidian to search by herself without the need for Lu Chuan to accompany her.
The route we took this time was different from the last time we picked wax melons. Today we picked wild fruits without being picky. We just picked whatever was available.
Lu Chuan first brought Xu Han to the location where the wild grapes were discovered.
The wild grapes should be ripe now, let’s see if we can pick them!
As soon as I walked in, I saw a lot of small grapes, some green and some purple. The purple ones were ripe! The green ones were not edible yet, they were not ripe and were quite sour.
Xu Han picked a bunch of purple grapes and tasted them. They were sweet and sour and very delicious, but a little more sour. Not as delicious as the grapes Lu Chuan bought in the county town!
After all, the grapes that grow wild on the mountain are definitely not comparable to the ones bought. The grape vines that grow on the mountain have no one to prune or fertilize them, so it’s great that they can grow to success!
Xu Han also picked some for Lu Chuan to eat. After tasting it, Lu Chuan said it was a bit sour, but still delicious.
After eating the grapes in their hands, the two began to pick grapes. The grapes had just ripened not long ago, so there were not many ripe grapes yet.
It didn't take long to pick all the grapes in this area. A total of more than three baskets were picked, which was also very good. I will come back later to pick the rest of the grapes.
After picking the fruits, the two continued walking forward. There was a patch of jujube trees not far away.
The two men came to a forest of sour jujubes, where there were even fewer ripe sour jujubes. They tasted one and it tasted good, but there were not many of them, so they could only pick the ripe ones first and pick the rest later. In total, they picked most of the jujubes in the backpack.
After picking them, we continued walking forward, searching as we walked, and found some wild grapes and other wild fruits on the way.
There are still many wild fruits in August, such as fragrant horse cannon, nightshade and various other wild fruits.
I found a lot along the way and piled them scattered in a backpack.
Finally, we arrived at the place where Lu Chuan had found wild kiwifruit. There were many kiwifruit trees near this place, so we could pick a lot at once!
Now is the season when kiwis are ripe. Xu Han found two ripe kiwis, handed one to Lu Chuan, then peeled the skin herself and tasted it. It was indeed delicious, soft, sweet and had a great taste!
Wild kiwis are very small and grow densely together!
After eating, the two began the ultimate task of the day, picking kiwis.
The kiwis picked are mainly hard and not fully ripe. They are easier to store and you can ripen them yourself after returning home.
Xu Han particularly loves eating kiwis. When she comes across ripe kiwis during the picking process, she eats them directly. After she is full, she takes out a bamboo basket to hold the ripe kiwis.
After picking this patch, they continued to pick kiwifruit in the nearby forest. Xu Han did not eat lunch as she was full after eating the kiwifruits. Lu Chuan had lunch by himself and then continued to pick.
They were busy until it was time to go back, then they stopped picking and started to head back.
On the way back, I changed the route and consciously looked for wild fruits while hurrying on the way, so that I could come and pick them directly tomorrow.
It was already getting dark when they returned home. As soon as they opened the door, the puppies pounced on them. Fantuan directly bit Xu Han's trouser leg and walked towards his own food bowl.
Xu Han held his forehead helplessly, and immediately took out some black-faced steamed buns from the space and poured some chicken soup on them.
Some food was put in each food bowl, and all the food reserved for them in advance had been eaten, and the puppies were starving.
Seeing the food in the bowl, the other puppies quickly ran over and started eating.
The chickens and ducks in the backyard were already crying with hunger! As soon as Lu Chuan came back, he went to the backyard to prepare food for them.
Xu Han sat in the yard and rested for a while, then got up to cook dinner!
I don’t want to cook a complicated meal for dinner. Just a simple cucumber salad, a portion of pickled fish, and some white rice, and it’s another meal.
After dinner, Xu Han took a hot bath to relieve her fatigue.
Then I took a short rest and went to bed. I still have to pick wild fruits for a day tomorrow, so I have to go to bed early today.
The next morning, the two set out again. This time they took the same route they took when they came back yesterday. They stopped and walked along the way and continued picking.
This route mainly grows wild grapes. I found a lot of them when I came back yesterday. I plan to pick them all and take them home today.
They picked kiwis along the way and finally arrived at the place where they picked kiwis yesterday. They picked the remaining kiwis, changed the route and started walking back.
After walking for a while, they found a lot of loquats. There were many loquats in the field, and they started picking loquats.
Fortunately, the loquats in this field grow on a shady hillside and have not rotted yet.
So the two of them picked for a while and picked two baskets in total. After they finished picking, they continued walking back.
We also found a lot of hawthorn trees. I picked one and tasted it, but it was not fully ripe yet, so I would have to wait a while before picking more.
At that time, you can use hawthorn to make candied haws, dry hawthorn and soak it in water to drink, and you can also make fruit jelly, hawthorn slices and other delicious foods.
Xu Han has begun to look forward to the hawthorns ripening.
On the way back, I picked a lot of wild fruits, and when I got home, the sun had just set.
Today, Lu Chuan came back a little early. After he got home, he went to tidy up the wasteland outside. He first loosened the soil and cultivated the ridges. Later, he could plant potatoes directly.
Xu Han began to clean the house.
I go out early and come back late every day, and I don’t have time to clean the house.
Wipe the table in the room first, then mop the floor.
Then I went back to the yard and tidied up the clutter, and before I knew it it was time to cook dinner.
Xu Han came to the kitchen and looked around. She didn’t know what to eat. It was the same dishes every day and she was tired of them. So she decided to make a dish that goes well with rice today!
Let's make a dish of smashed eggs with garlic! It's simple and tasty. Of course, unleavened pancakes are indispensable when eating smashed eggs with garlic.
First, knead the dough, then place it on the chopping board to rise for a while.
