The Age of Rebirth: Winning since the educated youth went to the countryside

After Bajiquan was upgraded to the fifth level, Zhou Ziwen became much more courageous and dared to go deeper into the mountains.

The deeper you go into the forest, the more complex the environment becomes.

However, this place is always on the periphery, and bold villagers come in from time to time, so it is relatively safe.

As Zhou Ziwen goes deeper, it is obvious that the resources around him are more abundant than outside.

Mushrooms, fungus, herbs, wild fruits, wild vegetables, etc., these things appear in front of Zhou Ziwen from time to time.

"Hey, luckily I was prepared this time."

Zhou Ziwen took off the sack from his waist with a smile and collected all these things.

Not to mention mushrooms and fungus, the wild fruits are mainly small fruits such as twisters, prickly pears, and mountain plums.

Twisted seeds are a purple-black fruit that is sweet and sour, and children love to eat it.

Prickly pear is a fruit covered with small thorns on the outside. The flesh inside is very sweet and very delicious.

Erzhuzi in the village told him these, and even gave him a few tastes.

As for wild vegetables and herbs, he knew them because he recently learned about them from the Barefoot Doctor's Handbook.

Some herbs have medicinal value and can also be eaten as vegetables, such as purslane, Qingming vegetables, shepherd's purse, and alfalfa.

These wild vegetables can clear away heat, detoxify, cool blood and stop bleeding. It is also used to treat chronic bronchitis, wheezing and coughing, ulcers, and rheumatic pain. It can also clear away heat and detoxify, diuresis and remove dampness.

Along the way, Zhou Ziwen did not do any serious work, but harvested a lot of wild vegetables and fruits.

But this was also business. The Chen sisters were collecting firewood, so he would do other things.

"Hey, this is chestnut, it's a good thing. Now, Yiyi and the others have snacks to eat."

After walking a certain distance, Zhou Ziwen gained something new.

In the golden autumn of September, it is the time to eat chestnuts. The chestnut tree Zhou Ziwen discovered still has many chestnuts on it, and many of them have fallen to the ground.

Zhou Ziwen was too lazy to pick up everything on the tree, so he just picked up everything on the ground.

Just these chestnuts filled half of my pocket.

To this end, he also took the wild vegetables out of the sack and took off his shirt to put the wild vegetables in.

"It seems like there are too many things, which can be annoying sometimes!" Zhou Ziwen sighed after picking up chestnuts on the ground.

But this is also the trouble of happiness.

If he had such troubles every day, Zhou Ziwen would probably be very happy.

Zhou Ziwen also discovered that this mountain is really a treasure. As long as they have the ability, they can live a very nourishing life just by relying on this mountain.

It makes sense to say that people who rely on mountains and rivers can eat water.

However, he was able to gain so much because Zhou Ziwen learned the knowledge in the book.

If he hadn't known so many medicinal herbs through books, he wouldn't have known them even if he came to the mountains.

Including mushrooms, which mushrooms can be eaten and which ones cannot be eaten are all knowledge and experience.

For these, the people who know best are actually the villagers who have lived here for generations.

Zhou Ziwen only scratches the surface of this understanding.

With two bags of things in his hands, Zhou Ziwen couldn't continue chopping firewood, so he simply went back to the outside, put down the things and came back again.

When he was picking wild vegetables just now, he had already found the target and was about to chop it down.

"Brother Ziwen, what did you bring back?" Seeing Zhou Ziwen carrying big and small bags, Chen Qiaoyi's eyes were filled with curiosity.

"They are all good things, and there are quite a lot of varieties. You can take a look at them later!" Zhou Ziwen said with a smile.

"What? Let me take a look." Chen Qiaoyi opened the package and sack with great interest and started to look at it.

"Wow, so many fruits, including chestnuts."

"Sister, look, there are a lot of wild vegetables."

"Brother Ziwen, what is this grass! Why does it look so strange?"

In the open space, Chen Qiaoyi's chirping voice kept ringing.

Zhou Ziwen didn't feel noisy at all, but felt that her voice was as pleasant as a lark.

"Sister, Yiyi, you guys go back first. I just found a dead tree, I'll cut it back."

Seeing the sisters still sorting out the things he had picked up, Zhou Ziwen put his shirt back on and said.

"We'll wait for you together." Chen Shiying said.

"Okay, I'll be back soon." Looking at Chen Shiying's concerned eyes, Zhou Ziwen smiled slightly and went up the mountain again with the ax in hand.

In fact, there was no danger in the mountains, but Chen Shiying didn't know the situation, so she was a little worried.

Zhou Ziwen didn't hate this kind of concern, but felt that his sister-in-law was a little heartwarming.

Because someone was waiting, Zhou Ziwen did not delay. After going up the mountain, he went straight to his destination. After cutting down the trees, he hurried down the mountain.

"Let's go home." Zhou Ziwen carried the dead tree and strode to the two sisters.

"Let's go." Chen Qiaoyi cheered and walked in front first.

After returning home, the three of them started busy themselves.

Zhou Ziwen was busy chopping firewood, and the two sisters were busy cleaning the wild vegetables and fruits that Zhou Ziwen had picked.

By the time Zhou Ziwen finished chopping the firewood, the two sisters were almost done with their work. They were now preparing to make chestnut cakes and stir-fry chestnuts.

This time he picked up a lot of chestnuts, and he would definitely not be able to finish the fried chestnuts alone. Chen Shiying was clever and thought of making chestnut cakes to eat.

Seeing them working in an orderly manner, a sense of life came to his face. At this moment, Zhou Ziwen somewhat enjoyed this feeling.

The two sisters are still busy, and Zhou Ziwen cannot lag behind.

He took out the hare he shot today, took it to his yard and started skinning it.

This thing was bloody when it was peeled. He was worried that the two girls would be frightened by it, so he simply peeled it at his own home, out of sight of them.

"Wow, Brother Ziwen, you are skinning a rabbit!"

While Zhou Ziwen was busy, Chen Qiaoyi's somewhat frightened voice came from the entrance of the courtyard.

"Why are you here? Aren't you helping me?" Zhou Ziwen calmly blocked the bloody anatomy scene with his body while changing the subject.

"I came here to see if you have any clothes to change. Wasn't your shirt dirty just now? I came to take it and wash it." Chen Qiaoyi thought of business.

"Well, this is a little bad!" Hearing this, Zhou Ziwen felt happy in his heart, but there was a bit of reluctance in his mouth.

Of course he was happy to have a woman help him wash clothes, but he and Yiyi were only dating in name only, not to the extent of helping him wash clothes. If the villagers saw it, they would probably laugh again.

"What's the point? I'm your partner. What's wrong with helping you wash your clothes? I wonder who dares to talk nonsense." Chen Qiaoyi showed her little fangs and looked very fierce.

"Are you really not afraid of what others will say?" Zhou Ziwen looked at the girl in front of him in surprise.

He remembered that when people in the village made fun of their relationship, the girl always blushed.

"Humph, what am I afraid of? It's not off work now, and I won't be afraid even if you see him." Chen Qiaoyi clenched his fists, looking like he was encouraging himself.

"Okay, I'll bother you then." Zhou Ziwen was a little funny, but he was willing to let Yiyi help him with the laundry.

"Hehe, no trouble."
