Chapter 180: Collecting the Wild Treasures in the Courtyard

When everyone put down their dishes with satisfaction, they began to discuss and decide who would be responsible for washing the dishes today.

After some discussion, it was finally decided that the two lovely girls, Bai Wanting and Yun Ya, would take on this responsibility.

In fact, the reason why Yun Ya took the initiative to ask to help wash the dishes was entirely out of concern and friendship for Bai Wanting.

And Yun Ya made up for not being able to stay and help Bai Wanting cook.

She always felt that she had a great time playing in the mountains, and that it was really hard for Sister Tuliubai to prepare such a sumptuous dinner by herself.

Therefore, I wanted to spend some time with Sister Bai, and I was willing to clean the kitchen and wash dishes together.

After all, in Yun Ya's eyes, Sister Xia, as the team leader, should go up the mountain to protect the safety of the female educated youth, and Xiaolin, as the youngest and luckiest educated youth, of course he should also go up the mountain.

I was the only one who knew nothing and ran up the mountain to play, so I was unable to help Sister Bai. This felt bad, so at this moment I took the opportunity to ask Sister Bai to wash the dishes with me.

Bai Wanting was so familiar with everything in the kitchen that she volunteered without hesitation and expressed her willingness to wash the dishes and tidy up the kitchen.

In Bai Wanting's opinion, if others could focus their energy on cleaning up the forgotten wild delicacies in the yard, the efficiency would definitely be higher.

Just now, while she was having breakfast, she had only taken a quick glance at the yard and had already noticed that there were many backpacks and baskets parked there, each filled with various things.

With so many items needing to be cleaned and organized, if someone who is not familiar with kitchen affairs is asked to wash the dishes, it is likely to delay a lot of time and affect the progress of the entire team.

So, Bai Wanting thought:

"I'll just do my best to complete my job in the field I'm best at!

This will ensure the kitchen is clean and tidy without wasting precious time or causing unnecessary trouble to other teammates."

Just like that, Bai Wanting and Yun Ya walked into the kitchen together, ready to start their journey of washing dishes...

The other six educated youth, both male and female, couldn't wait to walk into the yard and start packing up their hard-earned spoils!

When they stepped into the yard with great anticipation, they took a closer look and were immediately surprised.

It turned out that after just one morning of hard work, they harvested so many mountain products!

This is so incredible that it is hard to believe!

You know, at the beginning, the male and female educated youth returned to the yard at different times.

Therefore, the female educated youth who returned first naturally did not see the mountain products brought back by the male educated youth later.

As for the male educated youth, they were completely dazzled by the tempting fragrance. Without even taking a second look, they hurriedly threw the things in their backpacks and the items they were holding in their hands into the yard.

In this way, no one, whether male or female educated youth, knew exactly how many wild delicacies they had harvested.

At this moment, without any psychological preparation, the six people in the yard looked at the mountain of mountain products in front of them and couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

Wang Wenxiang, in particular, smacked his lips and sighed with deep emotion:

"Tsk tsk tsk, now I finally understand why my parents were so worried about everything when they found out I was going to the countryside in Northeast China.

The only thing he didn't worry about was whether I would be hungry or not!!

So this is what they told me when I was in the city, that even if I couldn't work, I could still avoid starving by occasionally going up the mountain to eat a bite to eat!

We've already found so many mountain products this morning! The mountains are truly an endless treasure trove! "

At this moment, Xia Zhiyan's eyes fell on the numerous spoils piled up in the yard, and a look of joy appeared on her face.

At the same time, he echoed Wang Wenxiang's words and sighed:

"Yes, today I went up the mountain with the captain, and the scene was truly spectacular!

Whether it is the team members or the experienced old educated youth, the total number of people is astonishing.

I didn’t expect that with the joint efforts of so many people, we could actually harvest so many good things. It’s really amazing!

This mountain is truly an inexhaustible treasure trove!"

Just as everyone was immersed in the joy of the harvest, Guan Huijun, who had always been relatively calm and composed, suddenly said:

“Although there are indeed countless mountain products on this mountain, we must always remember the captain’s earnest advice to us before we went up the mountain - we must remember to leave seeds.

If we don’t do this, I’m afraid we won’t be able to find such rich and delicious food by this time next year.”

As he spoke, he shook his head slightly, as if he felt that his reminder was a bit redundant. After all, everyone present should understand this truth.

However, deep down he knew very well that only by continuously protecting and rationally utilizing natural resources could long-term and stable harvests be ensured.

Something that is so easy to guess is naturally known to those who live in the same yard with you!

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but shook his head helplessly, and laughed at himself for being so naive.

After quietly listening to the heated discussion of these educated youth, the other educated youth seemed to be ignited with excitement and quickly started chattering and talking in a lively mode.

After exchanging a few laughs, everyone tacitly switched to the busy state of cleaning up.

The male educated youths were seen skillfully taking on the task of placing the captured game to one side, and they also had to carefully observe whether the game was completely dead.

If they are confirmed to be completely dead, they will be put aside first and then boiled with hot water to clean them carefully later.

Whether it is made into delicious smoked meat or transformed into other delicacies, it will be a good choice.

But if any game is found to still have a glimmer of life and has not completely died, it must be tied up tightly with ropes and temporarily imprisoned in a corner.

After all, safety comes first. We can't let these lively guys have the chance to escape or hurt others.

After careful inspection and processing, it was finally determined that the amount of game was not large, only a few pheasants and rabbits.

But even so, for these hard-working educated youth, it was a very rich harvest.

After successfully completing the initial processing of these wild game, the male educated youth did not stop, but immediately joined the team of other educated youth to start sorting the mountain products they picked.

They need to carefully distinguish between wild vegetables and fruits, and arrange these two categories neatly for further processing and utilization.

Because there are significant differences in the storage methods of these two types of mountain products, and the methods of ultimately consuming them are also different.

After careful consideration, everyone agreed that it would be better to store them separately.

In this way, everyone started to sort the things.

At this moment, Lin Sitian fell into deep thought. It was as if a door to endless imagination had opened in her mind, and all kinds of thoughts came flooding in:

"In this day and age, the resources in the mountains and forests are so rich and diverse, which must be closely related to the current social environment!

After all, the current environmental pollution problem has not yet developed to a very serious level. Because of this, those wild vegetables and fruits can thrive. Not only are they fresh and juicy, but the number is also astonishingly large!

Think about the current social situation. There are strict restrictions on privately picking public property. There is basically only one opportunity throughout the year to go up the mountain to collect mountain products in the name of the collective after the autumn harvest.

As a result, most of the resources on the mountain were collected by people during this specific period.

Fortunately, at other times, the animals and plants in the mountains and forests have enough time to rest and recover.

If we continue this cycle, when we go back to the mountains to collect next year, it will surely be another wonderful experience with a bountiful harvest!"

When they brought the wild fruits and other things they found in the mountains back to the dining hut, they simply separated the perishable ones from the non-perishable ones.

For example, you can just pile up the hawthorns, hawthorns and other fruits that are not easy to spoil and place them aside in the room.

As for those that are easy to rot and spoil, such as nightshade and raspberry, they are placed separately on the dining table and ready to be eaten when you return to the yard in the evening and have nothing to do. This way you don’t have to worry about wasting them.

The wild vegetables that are prepared to be made into dried vegetables are put aside and prepared to be cleaned later. After the wild vegetables are cleaned, they are dried in the sun.

There are also some fresh vegetables that they think are delicious and want to eat, which are placed aside. They are simply spread out under the eaves to dry in the sun, and then washed when they are ready to eat. This way they can be kept for a longer time!
