"Second sister, it's okay. The water is ready. Let's go wash the bottles." Zhou Mingshu coaxed Zhou Mingqi to divert her attention.

Several people sat around a large wooden tub, and Zhou Mingshu used chopsticks to pick up the bottle caps one by one from the boiling water.

After the heat dissipates, the two of them can wipe it again with cotton cloth.

The breeze ruffled their black hair and made their faces feel a little itchy. The three sisters were chatting while working, looking so happy.

A thousand porcelain bottles are quite a lot. After the boiling water became less hot, Zhou Mingshu started to fish them out directly, and his speed became faster.

The porcelain bottles that had been wiped dry earlier were put into the unused bamboo baskets, which were already four or five full.

When it was time for dinner, all the people who had been busy outside came back. There were still some vegetables left in the basin. Each person washed a few, and they finished all of them.

Dinner was almost ready. Since she was at home, the crucian carp was given to her to make braised fish.

Zhou Mingshu tied on an apron, and soon a delicious braised fish was served on the table.

There was a hungry gleam in everyone's eyes, and they all reached for the plate of braised fish.

This time, Mrs. Zhou saw clearly how to make the braised fish, and next time, she will be able to make the same braised fish.

Old Mrs. Zhou was full of confidence. She picked up a piece of fish with chopsticks and put it in her mouth to taste it slowly. She thought the taste was wonderful, but then she looked at her hands and began to back down again.

You may not be able to do it in one go, you need to think about it more.

The chicken mushrooms were fried directly with some lard residue in it, which made it taste meaty and delicious, but Zhou Mingshu still felt a little regretful.

Next time she must drink chicken mushroom soup!

There was also a plate of fried fish, a plate of mint scrambled eggs, a plate of dried bamboo shoots, a plate of mushrooms, and a pot of chrysanthemum brain and egg soup. There were five dishes and one soup, and each dish was a tipple.

After dinner, Zhou Mingshu was not idle. After melting the gardenia ointment, he took Zhou Mingqin and Zhou Mingqi to bottle the juice, then covered the bottles with porcelain caps and waited for them to solidify.

The rich version of mugwort juice also needed to be filtered, so Zhou Mingshu asked the two of them to take a rest while she would take care of the rest of the work.

By the time I finished all these things, it was already dark.

"Dad, I forgot to buy something. Please help me buy some from Uncle Chen's shop tomorrow."

"Okay, what do you want?"

"I want some plaster. I want to make something with plaster. Please buy some for me first."

"Okay, I'll bring it back to you tomorrow."

Zhou Laoer touched his daughter's head. As soon as he returned home, he saw that his daughter had changed her hairstyle. He was naturally very distressed and wanted to agree to everything his daughter said.

Zhou Mingshu returned to the house and planned to make the chalk the day after tomorrow. He would have to ask his uncle to make a piece of wood to serve as a small blackboard.

The table was covered with gardenia perfume. The fragrance lingered in the room and seeped into her pillows and quilt. Even she herself was covered with the scent of gardenia perfume.

Zhou Mingshu fell into a sweet sleep immersed in the sea of ​​flowers.

Early the next morning, Zhou Mingqi came and knocked on the window, shouting at her to get up, as if he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to wake her up.

"Second sister, please let me sleep a little longer~"

"Why are you sleeping? The sun is shining on your butt. Let's make the wormwood paste quickly. We can also go up the mountain to pick some mushrooms. I heard from my mother that there are many mushroom nests on the mountain, and fir mushrooms and chanterelles are everywhere."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Mingshu immediately became alert.

"Okay, wait a minute, I'll be up soon."

There are so many mushrooms in the mountains, why are you still sleeping in? Go into the mountains to pick up money! Oh, no, pick mushrooms!

After a simple breakfast, the three sisters and their aunt Feng started bottling the mugwort paste in the house.

"If you really want to go into the mountains, leave these to me. The bottling work is so simple that I can finish it by myself. I can't go out anyway, so I can do it as if it takes a whole day, and it won't tire me out."

Old Mrs. Zhou looked after her little granddaughter and did simple chores at home, and no one would disturb her.

The three sisters looked at each other and thought that their aunt's idea was a good one, so they nodded in agreement. However, it was not time to go out yet, so they had to work for a while.

One person placed the porcelain bottles, one person poured the mugwort juice, one person covered the bottles, and one person placed the finished products in the corner.

The four people divided the work in an orderly manner, and in a short while, they had filled more than two hundred bottles.

After Liu and Zhu finished washing and drying the clothes and came over with the baskets to call for help, Zhou Mingshu and the others stopped and handed the rest of the work to Feng.

Mrs. Feng was very happy that everyone could entrust these tasks to her. Her fetus was unstable and she had not gone out to work recently, so she felt a little guilty.

If she has work to do at home, she will feel that she is not a useless person who can only eat and drink.

After everyone left, the house became much quieter. Feng was concentrating on doing these things by herself. Although her speed was not as fast as the previous few people, she was still methodical and did not feel tired at all.

I haven't been up the mountain for several days, and the weeds there have become more lush.

Zhou Mingshu walked and looked, going where there was more grass and poking where there were more dead leaves.

It's not that she is naughty, but unexpected surprises often appear in these places, and such places are most likely to grow fungi.

Before reaching the target forest, Zhou Mingshu found many mushrooms halfway. According to the system prompt, these were some pine mushrooms, most of which were yellow pine mushrooms. They were bright yellow in color and were very conspicuous whether they were hiding in dead leaves or under green grass.

Following his aunt in twists and turns, Zhou Mingshu completely lost track of the direction, but there were so many mushrooms in this forest.

Moreover, the mushrooms are all buds, and their quality is much better than those picked at the foot of the mountain. The mushrooms are moist and tender, and the quantity is quite abundant.

There are four or five mushrooms in a nest. The crisp sound when they are broken sounds very relaxing. Look at the backpack again, it is full of the harvest from climbing the mountain.

The three sisters were competing to see who could pick up more mushrooms. Zhou Mingshu was naturally not afraid because he had the system in his hand, but as the number of mushrooms increased, the basket on his back became heavier and heavier.

Soon, my shoulders started to ache.

Zhu saw her daughter's difficulty and the two of them exchanged backpacks. She was rather careless and didn't pick many mushrooms, so the backpack was also rather light.

But my daughter has good eyesight. If you follow her, don't even think about picking up a mushroom she drops.

In addition to yellow fir mushrooms, there are also some blue fir mushrooms. Both of these mushrooms are fir mushrooms, and they only differ in color in appearance. They are also edible.

Another one is the chanterelle, which is also easier to find. It is bright yellow in color and quite eye-catching. It can be easily discovered even if it hides under dead leaves.

This is also Zhou Mingshu’s favorite mushroom. It tastes more fragrant than osmanthus and is priceless.

As luck would have it, Zhou Mingshu discovered a mushroom circle.

The chanterelles were scattered all over the ground, one next to the other. Picking up half a circle would be enough for a dish, and they were all buds. Everyone marveled at her good luck, as she could always find good stuff every time she went into the mountains.

Zhou Mingshu's smile reached his ears. It was so fun to pick mushrooms without having to move his feet at all.
