Walking all the way in, you can see lush green trees as far as the eye can see. The wind in the air carries water vapor, which cools people's faces.
A sound of "poof...lulu" came from the grass. Su Ziling was so frightened that she jumped up and her heart beat wildly. The sudden sound made her feel like she was about to jump out of her body.
Su Ziling calmed down and looked at the pheasant that flew away. Her eyes fell on the slightly swaying grass.
She found a stick, knocked it all the way, and spread the grass to both sides. She soon saw the nest hidden under the roots of the tree.
It is hidden so deep that it would be difficult for anyone to find it unless it flew out on its own.
Su Ziling counted five eggs, which seemed to be laying rather than hatching. She picked up all the eggs without thinking of leaving any behind.
These guys are very smart. As soon as someone discovers the nest, they will get angry and will find another one, so it is useless to leave it alone. It is also cheaper for snakes, insects, rats and ants to keep it. It is better for her to eat it.
After placing the eggs, she continued walking inside. The sound of running water became clearer and it was cooler inside. Not long after she left, she discovered the first tea tree.
The tea tree is very thick, with the main trunk as thick as a sea bowl. At least Su Ziling can't pinch it with two hands. It is estimated to be a hundred years old. Even if it is not, the difference is not big.
After hearing from Su's father that there were several tea trees not far apart, she strolled around and found five tea trees, none of which fell.
Just a few days after the rain, the budding condition of the tea trees was much better than that of the two trees she picked last time. Those two trees picked more than three kilograms, and these few trees should be able to pick about ten kilograms.
She found a tree that was easiest to climb, and the basket was carried behind her back. Tree climbing seemed to be a skill that every rural child knew. She picked quickly. She found a branch and stuck herself there. After trying it, it was quite stable, so I started picking it.
When Su's father and others came, she had already picked two trees, and the basket she brought was full.
Su's father handed her the water, "You climbed the tree? Why didn't you wait for us to come?"
"It's okay. I picked two short ones. They are not difficult to climb."
Su's father spit into the palm of his hand and said, "Lao San, your tree, mine."
Su Chuanbai didn't say anything and walked toward the tree next to him without saying a word.
Mr. Su and Su Ziling were picking food under the tree, "Have my second uncle and the others come back?"
"No, we came here after sending Zimu and the others. Let them go to the mountain col and pick the leaves when they come back." Mr. Su first watched how Su Ziling picked the leaves before he started.
"Is it too late? The demand has been increasing recently."
Mr. Su: "There is enough time. They all picked up a load, and two sacks are added to the basket. I think it will be enough after three trips. I guess they will have washed the leaves by the time we go over there and pick them back."
"Grandpa, I will be frying tea leaves when I get back soon. I guess I can't go with you. The tea leaves will be wilting by night." Su Ziling said while picking.
"It's okay. I'll just go with your father and third uncle. When your third aunt and Zimu come back, you can stop by to pick some. It's not a big problem. The tea forest is not big. I estimate that we can pick it in three or four days. It’s over.”
Su Ziling nodded, "The time was just right. After picking the tea leaves, it was time to remove the weeds. I took a detour today to take a look. The corns have emerged, but there is a bit too much grass."
"Well, when the time comes, take some stove ashes and sprinkle some, otherwise there will probably be insect bites."
The grandfather and grandson kept talking all the time, from tea to crops, and from crops to sweet potatoes.
"Sweet potato noodles are selling very well. I'll go back today to see how the ones with fat sausage are selling. If possible, I'll buy more meat and fat sausage in the future."
"I also want to make some dry powder, which I can sell to those vendors, but ours will probably be sold out in a few days, and we may not be able to get it back. I'm wondering if I should buy some in the village?"
Mr. Su pondered for a moment, "I will find a time to pay back the money owed to the village. Then let Li Zheng tell the village to see if anyone is willing to sell it. If not, go to other villages."
"If we continue to make sweet potato flour for a long time in the future, we won't be able to deal with the sweet potato residue alone." Mr. Su sighed.
"What's the point? We'll catch a few piglets then and use them all to feed the pigs. We can also kill the pigs during the Chinese New Year." Su Ziling thought openly.
Mr. Su nodded, "That's okay. I'll ask who owns it later, and then I'll catch both ends."
"I have to go to the market next time. Now that we start making tea, we can't use Aunt Ji's pot. We have to buy it ourselves. Grandpa, is that iron pot expensive?" Su Ziling thought, if it's not expensive, buy three. It can be divided into raw pot, green pot and cooked pot, and three people can fry it together, so as to better control the heat.
The old man thought for a while and said, "When our family bought it, it cost 150 cents a piece. I don't know if the price has increased or not."
One hundred and fifty coins? It's still acceptable.
"In two days, I'll go buy some sausages by the way. I plan to buy three bites."
"Three?" Mr. Su turned to look at her, "Is it too many?"
"This stir-fried tea is divided into three pots, a raw pot, a green pot, and a cooked pot. You need to use three pots, so that three people can fry it much faster. Otherwise, if I fry it in one pot, I won't be able to cook it at all." Su Ziling explained. road.
The old man nodded, "Okay, you can buy it yourself."
Several people picked while talking, but the speed was quite fast. The remaining three trees were picked in less than half an hour.
Everyone didn't stop. After picking, they rushed home and rushed to the next place.
When they got home, Liu Guilan and his wife had not returned from delivering tofu to the mountain col. Mr. Su and the others rested for a while and then set off.
Su Ziling is frying tea leaves at home.
"Axiu, come here and light the fire."
"Hey, here we come." A Xiu left Su Wenyuan behind and trotted over.
"Same as last time, don't make it too big." Su Ziling explained.
"I know, sister!"
Axiu now feels slightly better at making fire and controlling the temperature than Su Ziling.
While Su Ziling was making tea, she glanced at Su A'nai through the window, "A' Nai, don't keep sewing in the house. Come out for a walk. You're not in a hurry to get dressed, so there's no need to rush."
"I know, I know, I just got back home and you started saying, I'm afraid I won't be able to wear this dress for the Chinese New Year." Su'a didn't lift her nipples and continued to sew.
"That's not possible. It's going to rain in two days. There's nothing to do all day long. You can ask my mother, my third aunt, and the others to do it with you. There are so many people, so it's so fast."
"Then why don't you do it?" Su A'nai asked with a smile.
Su Ziling shook her head like a rattle, "Don't do that. I don't know how to sew. I can't sew that thing at all. I'm afraid that the clothes will be sewn together and you can't tell the difference between the head and the butt."
Su Ziling is completely unable to hold needle and thread now, and she won't be able to learn it anyway.
