Chapter 509 Pulling Bamboo Shoots

Wei Wei quickly opened the window and looked out. As soon as the window was opened, she heard the sound of machinery running. From a distance, she could see Xiao Xuemu harvesting things.

Although it was not very clear because it was far away, I could see the figure moving.

Wei Wei knew that it must be Xiao Xuemu. Knowing that there was someone else there, Wei Wei breathed a sigh of relief, and the slight feeling of uneasiness disappeared.

Now Wei Wei finally understood what the saying "ideals are full, but reality is skinny" meant.

She used to think that it would be completely fine for her to stay alone in Xiao Xuemu's space for three or four months, but now it seems that she was overthinking it.

Humans are indeed social animals. It’s okay to live alone, but at least you have to make sure you know that there are other people around you and you are not alone. Otherwise, what’s the difference between this and the end of the world!

Seeing Xiao Xuemu around, Wei Wei breathed a sigh of relief. She stopped thinking about all sorts of things and went to the kitchen to get breakfast.

Xiao Xuemu had almost packed up his things, and thought Wei Wei might be waking up soon, so he came back.

Mainly because he saw the windows and doors open, he guessed that Wei Wei must have gotten up.

When Xiao Xuemu came back, Wei Wei had just finished breakfast and was putting dishes into the dishwasher.

To be honest, Xiao Xuemu still couldn't get used to seeing Wei Wei wearing this pajamas. He didn't know where to look because none of them seemed right.

Xiao Xuemu's throat tightened, and he was afraid of embarrassing himself, so he quickly changed the subject.

"Have you eaten? By the way, didn't you say you wanted to pickle bamboo shoots? I see a lot of them growing over there. Do you want to pick some?"

In fact, Xiao Xuemu was not sure whether it was a bamboo shoot, but he had seen bamboo, and that thing looked very similar to bamboo.

But Wei Wei said there would be bamboo shoots there, so it must be bamboo shoots.

Wei Wei's eyes lit up when she heard this. "Really? Come on, come on, hurry over there. Today I'll show you my skills. I'm really good at pulling bamboo shoots."

After saying that, she picked up the backpack and asked Xiao Xuemu to teleport her over there. It was too far away and she was too lazy to walk.

Before leaving, Wei Wei suddenly remembered something, "Oh, let me tell you something. Normally, it's fine for me to be alone in the space, but if I'm sleeping, don't leave me alone in the space.

If you need to go out for something, just wake me up and tell me."

If she was left alone in the space without saying a word, she was afraid that she would start to have all sorts of random thoughts.

You can say that she has a dirty heart and thinks everything she sees is dirty, but she just likes to make malicious assumptions about others.

But if Xiao Xuemu told her, she would definitely not think too much about it.

After all, she was not fully awake every time she woke up, and she would feel uneasy when she was alone in the space without any mental preparation.

Xiao Xuemu naturally understood Wei Wei's hidden meaning and quickly agreed.

Seeing Wei Wei going to pick bamboo shoots, Xiao Xuemu looked at the clothes and asked in confusion:

"Don't you need to change your clothes?"

It’s not that Xiao Xuemu doesn’t like Wei Wei’s revealing clothes, but he is afraid that she will feel itchy if she gets cut by bamboo leaves while wearing this outfit.

Wei Wei didn't care, "It's okay, nothing will happen if you don't go to the bamboo forest.

Besides, the bamboo has not grown yet and there won’t be any bamboo. This is not a trip to the vegetable garden, so it won’t itch.

Wei Wei understood, she knew that if she went to a small bamboo forest, she would have to wear short clothes because the bamboo leaves would cut people.

But the bamboos have not grown up yet, they are still bamboo shoots, and what we are planting are bamboo rhizomes rather than old bamboos, so there will be no problem.

When they arrived at this reserved bamboo forest, Wei Wei didn't know what to say.

Because this is no longer a preparatory bamboo forest, the prototype of a bamboo forest has already appeared, and it is about to be formed into a bamboo forest.

She knew that bamboo grew fast, or rather, that bamboo shoots grew fast, but she didn't expect them to grow so fast.

There are already many bamboo shoots as tall as a person, and some are even taller than a person.

There are also those small bamboo shoots, many of which have just grown out, but the tall ones have already grown leaves and have grown up.

However, these leaves are still very tender, and as long as she doesn't go into the bamboo forest, she won't be cut by them while wearing this dress.

"Oh my god, does it grow so fast?"

Wei Wei knew that bamboo grew very fast. After all, she had heard her grandfather and father say many times that if the bamboo shoots seen today were not dug up, they would become old and inedible the next day.

But she didn't know it would grow so fast, which was because Jiang Qi was not here, otherwise he would definitely just grab Wei Wei's ears and lecture her.

I surf the Internet every day and I'm a real southerner, but I didn't know about this.

You should know that bamboo is a plant of the Poaceae family, which is a grass and an annual plant.

Bamboo has also been often ridiculed by people in the south. Someone once said that if you take a shit in a bamboo forest, the bamboo will poke your butt before you finish shitting.

Although this statement is a bit exaggerated, bamboo really grows very fast. It can grow to half a person's height in just one night.

Xiao Xuemu was also quite surprised that it grew so fast. He had discovered bamboo shoots sprouting here some time ago, but he didn't pay much attention to it. He was thinking of bringing Wei Wei in to dig bamboo shoots after the educated youth went back to visit their families.

But I didn’t expect that it has only been less than ten days. They all just sprouted a few days ago, and now the big ones have become bamboo shoots.

The same goes for those small bamboo shoots. They just sprouted tips a while ago, and now they have become small bamboos.

He had really never seen so many bamboo shoots, and these bamboo shoots were different, so Xiao Xuemu was still very confused.

Xiao Xuemu pointed at the bamboos of varying sizes and asked, "Are these all bamboos? What's the difference between them?"

Wei Wei nodded, "Yes, they are all bamboo."

Wei Wei immediately introduced them to Xiao Xuemu, "These big ones are ordinary bamboo shoots, grown from big bamboos. They are delicious whether they are stir-fried, dried, or pickled.

However, the dried bamboo shoots that are dried in the sun are more accurately called bamboo shoot slices.

This kind also grows into a big bamboo, but is smaller than that one. It is called bitter bamboo shoot. It is bitter, but it is sweet after the bitterness, and the bottom is sweet.

This slightly smaller one is called bamboo shoot, and it will become this kind of small bamboo when it grows up.

However, Mazhu is just a name in our area, it is a dialect. Its scientific name seems to be spotted bamboo or something, because it has some dots on it, so it is called Mazhu, but the real Mazhu is not this.

This can also be used to make dried bamboo shoots. The small dried bamboo shoots, that is, the shredded bamboo shoots, can also be used to make pickled bamboo shoots.

This small bamboo here is water bamboo shoots, which are generally used to make pickled bamboo shoots. They are just right for one bite and very flavorful. "

Xiao Xuemu was dizzy after hearing this series of bamboo shoot varieties. He really didn't know that there were so many types of bamboo.

I can only say that today is also a day of learning.

Wei Wei looked at the bamboo that was already so deep, then looked at her own tender arms and legs, and thought about the consequences of getting in. She immediately gave up the idea and directly and bluntly instructed Xiao Xuemu:

"Today we will first pick these small bamboo shoots, namely water bamboo shoots, hemp bamboo shoots and bitter bamboo shoots.

Dig out the big ones later, or later. As for the bitter bamboo shoots, don’t put them together with the water bamboo shoots, because they are bitter.

You go look for it inside, I'll pull it outside. Remember, don't take the tall ones, only the ones that are deep in the palm of your hand and have just grown teeth.

The tallest ones can only be as deep as two palms. Those that are too tall are too old and not tasty. They are hard to bite. You want tender ones.

However, bitter bamboo shoots can be bent a little taller, but the maximum height can only be 40 centimeters."

After saying that, he demonstrated and pulled out a few for Xiao Xuemu to see.

Seeing this, Xiao Xuemu nodded and said, "Okay."

After saying that, he took the backpack and went into the bamboo forest to pull it out.

Pulling bamboo shoots is really addictive. Pulling one at a time is not only addictive but also very stress-relieving.

Because they were just planted, even if there are bamboos, they are still relatively few. Most of them are bamboo shoots. It just looks like there are a lot of bamboos because Wei Wei planted them wide enough.

In just ten minutes, Wei Wei had pulled out a basket of bamboo shoots from her circle outside, most of which were hemp bamboo shoots, mainly because Wei Wei disliked the water bamboo shoots because they were too small.

All I can say is that the resources are too abundant. If it were in the past, let alone disdaining the water bamboo shoots, she would not be able to grab them even if they were so tender.

Therefore, Wei Wei couldn't stop herself. She knew that this plant grew easily, and even if she pulled so much, it would still grow back next year.

Not to mention next year, it will grow back in a week, so I couldn't control myself. If I couldn't stop my hands, I couldn't stop my hands. If I couldn't put it down, I would just put it on the ground and wait for Xiao Xuemu to come and take it back.
