Chapter 12 Cutting Bamboo to Make Fishing Rods
Dangshang, as it is called in Zhongling County, is the channel from the sluice gate to the reservoir at the edge of the lake.
Whenever the dry season comes, the sluice will be opened and the water from the lake will flow into the reservoir through this swing to prevent natural disasters.
Shu Zhiqiang didn't know what happened behind the scenes at home, but he knew that his father would not hit his mother.
After all, no matter how drunk his father was in his previous life, and no matter how hard he and Fu Huijuan gave instructions to his mother, he never took action.
It was precisely because he knew his father's character that he felt confident climbing up the swing with a machete.
This swing is only a dozen meters high, so it's not difficult to climb up. There is a hill at the other end, and the hill is full of bamboos.
Shu Zhiqiang's purpose was to cut a few bamboos there, so he crossed the deep ditch in front of him again.
But just when he jumped down into the ditch, he discovered a good thing, the Snake Fruit.
[Illustration spare column]
His face was filled with joy, he stepped forward, picked one and threw it into his mouth. A sweet taste spread in his mouth with a slight sip.
"Comfortable…"
This thing looks like a strawberry, but not as big as a strawberry. The largest one is about the size of a marble, but it is no less sweet than a strawberry.
In layman's terms, they are wild strawberries, and their scientific names are Snake Pao Guo, Dragon Tu Zhu and so on.
Shu Zhiqiang doesn't know about other places, but they call it Pao Guo.
Whenever the sluice gate is opened and water flows through, in a few months there will be snake fruit growing in this deep ditch.
In this era, there was little food in the countryside. One of the greatest joys for children was to climb the swamps and pick snake fruit, and this wild fruit became their few rations.
Shu Zhiqiang had picked it before, but he hadn't experienced it for a long, long time. The sweetness of the snake fruit made him couldn't help but recall the suffering he suffered in his previous life.
He shook his head and stopped thinking about it. He picked all the snake fruits and made the most of it.
As long as his younger siblings like to eat, it has nothing to do with him whether other children eat or not.
After putting the picked snake fruit in a cloth bag, he tied it to the rope around his waist.
This way, he won't accidentally crush the bamboo when he chops it.
Snake fruit is not denser than strawberries and will rot if you pinch it with your fingers, let alone squeeze it.
After doing this, Shu Zhiqiang climbed towards the bamboo forest on his hands and feet, and finally climbed up after getting stains all over his body.
This thing was indeed a bit troublesome, so he decided to find a board and place it on top of the deep ditch when he had time, so that he would not have to go back and climb the deep ditch.
People in this era are very agile with their hands and feet, moving up and down very quickly, so for a long time they never thought about using a board.
Moreover, few people come to cut the bamboos on this mountain, which results in the bamboos growing very luxuriantly here.
Shu Zhiqiang did not climb too high. He found a few light bamboos on the edge of the bamboo forest and chopped them with his knife.
Of course, he didn't chop randomly, but chopped from the roots to prevent the bamboo from being damaged.
The power of the woodcutter was still very strong, and a light bamboo was chopped down in just a few strokes.
Shu Zhiqiang picked up the bamboo and looked at it. It was neither old nor tender, had no insect eyes, and had dense nodes. It was very suitable for making fishing rods.
After confirming that there was no problem, he peeled off the branches and leaves on the bamboo to make it smooth and non-irritating.
Then he cut four or five more light bamboos according to the standard of this bamboo. After trimming the branches and leaves, he tied them together with hemp rope.
However, he did not leave, but cut down a few more thin bamboos to make cages for trapping fish and shrimps.
After tying these bamboos together, he was ready to go home, but he almost tripped over the bamboo shoots under his feet.
"Hey, are you really looking for death? Are you eager to match your strong brother's rations?"
Shu Zhiqiang sneered, then swung his knife to dig out the bamboo shoots, and at the same time, he also dug out the other brothers and sisters.
The season has entered summer, and the spring bamboo shoots and winter bamboo shoots are gone, but the taste of Ma Bamboo is not much different, and it is very fragrant when used to stir-fry meat slices.
Shu Zhiqiang walked down the bamboo forest and stood on the swing where he could see most of the entire village of Changhu Brigade.
Shujia Village, which only had a dozen or so households, was surrounded by dozens of villages.
"The feng shui of this place is not very good at first glance. We need to make more money to allow our family to live in the city."
Shu Zhiqiang made up his mind, and then threw the bamboo on his back to the other side of the swing.
No way, carrying this up and down is too tiring, it would be much easier to just throw it to the other end.
Fortunately, he was strong enough and did not throw the bamboo into the deep ditch.
After a lot of tossing, Shu Zhiqiang finally returned home with all his things.
He thought that after so long, his father's anger should be almost gone, right?
However, when he first entered the courtyard, he saw his sister Shu Zhixuan sitting on a stool with her head lowered, as if in a daze.
Perhaps hearing the movement, Shu Zhixuan raised her head and looked over.
When he saw her red eyes, Shu Zhiqiang's expression suddenly changed.
Did dad take action? "
Shu Zhiqiang's expression changed, and he quickly put down the bamboo and walked towards Shu Zhixuan.
"Brother! Woohoo..."
Shu Zhixuan seemed to have been greatly wronged, hugging Shu Zhiqiang's thigh and burst into tears.
Originally she didn't want to cry, but the moment she saw her eldest brother, she couldn't help but want to vent her grievances.
Shu Zhiqiang was so distressed that he quickly reached out to touch the back of the other person's head and asked angrily: "What's going on! Did dad hit you?"
"Don't be afraid, tell me, and I will help you get revenge!"
Of course, he definitely didn't mean to beat his father when he said this, he just wanted to argue with him.
However, when Shu Zhixuan heard his words, she cried even harder.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...Dad didn't hit me, but he gave my biscuits to Auntie and Qingqing;
No more, not a single piece left, wuwuwu..."
It cost 80 cents, enough to buy a pound of pork. For this reason, he was worried that he would be pimped when he came back.
As a result, the pimp was not beaten, but the eighty-cent biscuits were gone. Who wouldn't be sad?
The portions of biscuits are usually large, especially the peach cake, which is only a few pieces per half a catty.
Shu Zhiqiang originally bought it for his younger brothers and sisters, but if he shared it with his aunt and Qingqing, it would definitely not be enough.
But as long as his sister wasn't beaten, Shu Zhiqiang felt relieved.
He rubbed the back of the other person's head and said with a smile: "Okay, Xuanxuan, don't cry. Let's see what big brother brings back to you."
Hearing this, Shu Zhixuan let go of Shu Zhiqiang's leg and watched the other person open the cloth pocket around his waist.
"Wow! So many bubble fruits!!" Looking at the red fruits, Shu Zhixuan shouted in surprise.
But soon she covered her mouth and glanced at the door of the next door house with a worried look.
If Shu Qingqing heard this, she would definitely not get anything to eat.
"Be good, take it and eat it." Shu Zhiqiang smiled slightly and handed over all the fruits.
Seeing Shu Zhixuan happily taking the fruit to eat next to him, Shu Zhiqiang smiled and started making the tools he would use next.
