Chapter 16 Picking up Mushrooms

After breakfast, Zhou Ze looked at Lin Yu and Lin Bao with two dark circles under their eyes, yawned and lacked energy, so he asked them to catch up on the kang, while he looked at the leaking wooden bucket and basin Guys, wait until the water is full, and then pour the water outside.

Seeing that the accumulated water in the yard was about to fill the yard, Zhou Ze thought that the drain was blocked. Zhou Ze went to the drain at the base of the wall to have a look. These things were turned aside, and a ditch was dug in front of the gate to draw the water out of the courtyard. The water in the courtyard immediately flowed out of the courtyard along the gutter.

As the rain gradually became lighter, Zhou Ze climbed a ladder to the roof in the rain, and blocked the leaking place with a trowel. He also opened up the drains of the eaves, so that the drainage would be faster.

At noon, Lin Yu and Lin Bao woke up, and they had some lunch. Lin Yu asked Zhou Ze to catch up on sleep.

"Brother Zhou, you can go to sleep, it's enough for Xiaobao and I to watch in the afternoon."

"Okay, if you need anything, call me."

It was cloudy and rainy, and it rained intermittently for several days. Except for the pouring rain on the first night, it was light rain in the following days. Zhou Ze stayed in the house for a few days and felt that It's moldy and hairy, isn't it? It's been raining for the past few days, and the house is leaking. There's a lot of humidity in the room, and the clothes are sticking to the body, which is very uncomfortable.

Because of the rain leak, Zhou Ze climbed the ladder to the roof several times to plug the leak, otherwise he would not even be able to sleep in the past few days. This rain leak problem was the first headache that Zhou Ze encountered in this world. Problem, there is nothing more troublesome than this.

On this day, the long-lost sun finally came out. The first thing Zhou Ze thought of was to find a skilled mason in the village to repair the roof of Lin’s house. There is no way.

Zhou Ze didn't know who had the best craftsmanship in the village, so he asked Lin Yu. Lin Yu didn't know much about the situation in the village, and he didn't need to take care of these things when his parents were there.

At this time, Zhou Ze thought of Liu Changwang, he was still familiar with him, so he had to ask him for information.So he went to Liu Changwang's house, and saw Liu Changwang and his two sons working on the roof and repairing the roof. It turned out that although Liu Changwang's house was good, because of the heavy rain this time, there were several leaks , but not as serious as the Lin family.

"Uncle Liu, is your house also leaking?"

"That's right, the rain was so heavy and fast that people were not prepared. One room leaked," Liu Changwang said, "Ayu's house is old and hasn't been repaired this year. The place where the water leaked this time A lot."

"Yeah, several houses are leaking, that's why I came here, I want to find someone with good craftsmanship in the village to come and help us fix it, I don't know which one is better, come and ask Uncle Liu .”

Liu Changwang shook his head, "It's hard to find someone right now. The rain came suddenly, and the villagers were unprepared. Almost every house has water leaks. Everyone is busy with their own affairs at the moment. I think so. , When I come down, I will take you to those few places to ask."

Liu Changwang took Zhou Ze to look for some good masons in the village. Generally, people's houses have leaks and can be repaired by themselves, but the leaks of Lin's house are too serious, so it is better to find professional talents.

On the way, Zhou Ze told Liu Changwang that he wanted to spend money to hire someone to repair the roof. Before Lin Yu told him that usually people are hired to take care of the food and rarely pay wages, but this time he wanted to fix the roof as soon as possible. If it is repaired and paid, those people should look at the face of the money and hurry up to repair their houses first.

Sure enough, seeing that Zhou Ze paid twenty Wen a day, three families with good craftsmanship agreed to repair their roofs immediately.It took two days to buy new tiles and lime, and the roof of Lin's house was repaired.

Looking at the brand new roof, Zhou Ze felt much less depressed.

"Brother Zhou, the mushrooms and fungus in the mountains are all out, let's go to the mountains to pick up mushrooms." Lin Yu said, "The mushrooms in the mountains are delicious for soup and dishes."

Seeing Lin Yu's hopeful gaze, Zhou Ze immediately agreed, "Okay."

Early in the morning, Zhou Ze took Brother Lin Yu up the mountain with a basket on his back. Along the way, there were quite a few people like them, all of whom went up the mountain to pick up mushrooms.Although the rain has stopped for three or four days, the mountains are still very humid, which just provides conditions for the growth of mushrooms.

The three of them picked up a lot of mushrooms as they walked along the way. Zhou Ze had no experience in digging mushrooms, so he followed the example of Lin Yu brothers, and only picked mushrooms that were recognizable at a glance, and some mushrooms that could not be identified. It is not picked, it will be bad if you encounter poisonous mushrooms.

"Brother, do you think we will find another Limonium this time? It would be great if we can dig up the Limonium." Lin Bao said cheerfully, with a pair of big eyes looking around, very excited.

"Look around, maybe we can meet you." Lin Yu didn't discourage his enthusiasm, "Brother Zhou, last time you went into that mountain with Uncle Liu, what it looked like there, everyone said that there are most good things in the mountain. "

"In there, there are more trees, denser forests, and more wild animals. Last time I went there, I only paid attention to the prey, but forgot to look for the Limonium." Zhou Ze said, "The next time I go, I will look for it. Find it, and I will dig some Limonium for you when the time comes."

Thinking of the blood-blood grass, Zhou Ze naturally thought of the miraculous effect of the blood-blood grass. Looking at the distant mountains, he always felt that there were many secrets hidden in it, just like the blood-blood grass. After eating the blood-blood grass, he increased his strength. Even the body has become stronger, and the strange wolf seems to have mutated by eating some herbs. It seems that there are many treasures hidden in this mountain.

Lin Yu's expression changed when he thought of the last time Zhou Ze came back covered in blood, and shook his head, "Don't go there, it's too dangerous inside."

"Why, is Ayu afraid that I'll get hurt?" Zhou Ze smiled, "Don't worry, I promised you won't get hurt, and I'll only be more cautious about what I do in the future."

"Brother Zhou, I see that you taught Xiaobao boxing in the morning, can I follow suit?" Lin Yu asked.

"Of course you can, as long as you're not afraid of suffering. Xiaobao is still tired after studying for a few days," Zhou Ze said.

"I'm not afraid of suffering." Lin Yu's eyes were bright, and what he thought in his heart was that if he learned the skills well, he would be able to enter the mountain with Zhou Ze.

"Brother Zhou, when did I get tired of shouting? I've been studying very hard." Lin Bao said dissatisfiedly, suddenly he found a wild rabbit grazing in the grass in the distance in front of him, and said in a low voice, " Brother Zhou, look there is a wild rabbit, don’t you bring a bow and arrow, see if you can shoot it.”

"where?"

"It's right there." Lin Bao pointed with his finger, and Zhou Ze looked in the direction of his finger. There really was a gray rabbit gnawing grass in the grass. It was quite far away from them, and they couldn't see it if they didn't pay attention.

"Little Treasure's eyes are really good. You are waiting here. I will go quietly." Zhou Ze made a silent movement, put down his back basket, took out his bow and arrow, and slowly approached the hare's position step by step.

"咻" the bamboo arrow shot out, and it was piercing the rabbit.

"Haha, I hit it, Brother Zhou hit it." Lin Bao cheered, and happily ran to pick up the rabbit. The rabbit was hit by the arrow and was struggling there. He was not afraid, so he directly grabbed the rabbit's long ears, Pick it up, "Brother, look, this rabbit is very fat."

Lin Yu took the rabbit with a smile, and it was quite heavy in his hand, "It's really a fat rabbit, it must weigh four or five catties."

"It's just time to go home and cook rabbit meat." Zhou Ze said.

As noon approached, the weather became hotter and hotter. The three of them dug out half a basket of mushrooms and fungus, and caught a fat rabbit, but they didn't find a single limonium.Lin Bao was a little disappointed, Lin Yu had long been accustomed to such a result,

"Let's go, let's go down the mountain. It would be nice to have rabbits to eat." Lin Yu was also quite satisfied with this.

It was noon when the three of them returned home, and the roofs of each house were filled with smoke, so it was time for cooking.

When they got home, Lin Yu picked and washed vegetables, Zhou Ze handled the rabbits, and Lin Bao held firewood to light the fire.

Zhou Ze peeled the rabbit skin, tidied it up, cut it into small pieces, heated the pan with cold oil, sautéed mulberry ginger and garlic until fragrant, put in the rabbit pieces and stir-fried them, added soy sauce and braised them for coloring, the yard was filled with the aroma of meat, and finally added beans Stir-fry the mushrooms together, add water and simmer for half an hour and it will be out of the pan.

There is nothing more satisfying than a delicious meal when you are hungry. A pot full of rabbit meat was served on the table. Lin Yu added a piece of meat to Zhou Ze and Lin Bao respectively. Zhou Ze and Lin Bao moved Unanimously each picked up a piece of meat and put it into Lin Yu's bowl. The three of them looked at each other, smiled, and ate with humility, enjoying the joy of sharing.
