Chapter 120 Digging Spring Bamboo Shoots

Qinghe and Qingzhi were breathing heavily, but when they heard Lin Shuyue's words, their eyes lit up, and they walked up to the bowls and drank from them in big gulps.

As soon as the spiritual spring water went down their throats, the fatigue and aches in their bodies instantly disappeared, and they both sighed in comfort.

"Thank you, Miss." Qingzhi wiped the corners of her mouth and smiled sweetly at Lin Shuyue, revealing a pair of dimples, which was very cute.

During these few days, Lin Shuyue did not hide the truth from the two of them, so they all knew that the young lady could use the art of hiding the universe from her sleeves. However, the two of them mistook the young lady for a fairy who had descended to earth, and they respected her even more in their hearts.

Although there were not many places in the restaurant that needed renovation, they planned to return to Lanshan Village first because they had to be repainted with tung oil, which would take time for the smell to dissipate.

Before leaving the next day, Lin Shuyue told Manager Hu to keep a close eye on the progress of the restaurant. She then called Manager Gao forward and told him to keep an eye on the shops in the Wan Mansion. If any shops or restaurants were put up for sale in the Wan Mansion, let someone notify her immediately.

After giving the instructions, the family took a carriage back to Lanshan Village. Of course, Lin Shuyan could only come back at the end of each month when he had a day off.

In March, the earth is full of vitality. In the spring breeze, the weeds and wild vegetables on the roadside are swaying, and the wild flowers are also raising their big smiling faces.

Lin Shuyue lifted the car window curtain and looked at the people working in the fields. They had taken off their jackets and put on spring clothes, with longing smiles on their dark faces.

The carriage soon arrived at the stone bridge in the village. Several women who were washing clothes under the stone bridge watched the carriage turn right after getting off the bridge and headed straight for the foot of the mountain east of the village, whispering to each other.

"The Lin family has been in the county town for almost half a month." A round-faced woman looked at the carriage going away with envy.

"Tsk tsk, this Lin family is really rich. They built such a big house in the village, with a lotus pond and a fruit forest. I heard that they also bought a big house in the county town."

"It's no use to be envious. They don't take us peasants seriously. Have you ever invited anyone from our village to their house? Only the village chief went there once."

The person who was speaking was a woman with pomade on her head, drawn eyebrows, and lip balm.

Liu Cuiping, who was at the edge, didn't want to pay attention to them, but after hearing Li Chuncao's sour words, she couldn't help but retort: ​​"You can't say that. They hurried to the county town right after the house was built. They must have been busy and didn't stay in the village. Besides, who stipulated that you must be invited to someone else's house?"

Hearing this, Li Chuncao glanced at her with disdain and snorted, "I'm not here. If you want to flatter me, go to my front door."

Liu Cuiping's face darkened when she heard her sarcastic words. She threw the clothes in her hand onto the stone slab, stood up, rolled up her sleeves, and stared at Li Chuncao fiercely.

"If you can't spit out ivory from your mouth, come and fight if you can."

Li Chuncao was frightened by her appearance and remembered Tiedan's mother, whose scalp she had torn off when they fought last year.

Her head suddenly felt numb and her momentum immediately weakened. She muttered, "Why are you so fierce? Can't I just joke?" Then she quickly put away her clothes and walked away dejectedly with the wooden basin.

The other women stopped talking when they saw this, and hurriedly washed their clothes and went home to prepare lunch.

At the Lin family, Lin Shuyue got off the carriage and ran excitedly to the pavilion beside the lotus pond. At this time, the leaves of the planted lotus seedlings had already poked out of the water, and fish seedlings could vaguely be seen flashing by in the lotus pond.

After watching for a while, she had an idea and quietly added some spiritual spring water into the lotus pond. Then, she went to the orchard and did the same thing, watering each young sapling with some spiritual spring water.

After inspecting her territory, she took Qinghe and Qingzhi home.

At this time, in the flower hall in the front yard of the Lin family, Manager Lin was respectfully reporting the family situation to Lin An and Li. In fact, there was nothing serious. The village chief only came to ask them when they would be back the day before yesterday.

Lin An didn't know why the village chief wanted to see him, so he planned to go to the village chief's house in the afternoon to ask.

On this day, all the servants in the Lin family's house were filled with joy. When their masters were not at home, they were always worried, fearing that their masters would forget them.

With Mrs. Shi in a cheerful mood, the lunch was simply exceptional, which made the Lin family rave about it and praise Mrs. Shi again and again.

After lunch, Lin Shuyue rested for a while and then went up the mountain through the back door. She did not let Qingzhi and Qinghe follow her because they had only practiced basic skills for a short time and were not suitable to go up the mountain.

When passing by the bamboo forest, she glanced at the spring bamboo shoots breaking through the ground and suddenly remembered that now was the time to dig spring bamboo shoots.

Seeing the spring bamboo shoots, she was a little unable to walk. After hesitating for a moment, she released Weifeng, Xuebao and Xiao Huihui and let them go up the mountain to play by themselves.

Then she ran home excitedly. As soon as she entered the door, she met Li and Lin Shuyuan with Xia Lian, Qingzhi and Qinghe. Each of them was holding a bunch of grass in their hands. Qingshan and Qingwu followed behind them, carrying bamboo baskets on their backs.

"Mom, brother, what are you doing?" Lin Shuyue asked curiously.

Li smiled and said, "We are going to the forest behind to dig spring bamboo shoots. Granny Shi said that the spring bamboo shoots in the forest are very fresh and tender."

Lin Shuyue scratched his head and said, "I just came back from the bamboo forest and was just about to come back to tell you."

"Then let's go together!" Lin Shuyuan pushed her forward with a smile.

In the bamboo forest, Li was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling as she looked at the spring bamboo shoots popping out of the ground.

Although they now have slaves and don't have to do many things themselves, the joy of digging spring bamboo shoots can only be experienced by doing it yourself.

Lin Shuyue took the pickaxe from Qingzhi's hand, found a plump and tender spring bamboo shoot that had emerged, and used the pickaxe to dig up the soil around the bamboo shoot. After finding the front of the bamboo shoot, she swung the pickaxe, controlling the force to dig down. With a light pry of the pickaxe, the bamboo shoot rolled to her feet.

Qingzhi stared at Lin Shuyue's quick and decisive movements with shining eyes, and shouted in her heart, "Young lady is so amazing!"

Li was also having a great time digging on the other side.

There were many people digging bamboo shoots, and the baskets carried by Qingshan and Qingwu were soon filled up. Li had had his fill and planned to go home.

At this time, Lin Shuyuan came out from the depths of the bamboo forest carrying a huge bamboo rat and shouted excitedly: "Mom, sister, look! What a fat bamboo rat!"

When Lin Shuyue turned around, she met the bamboo rat's round but small eyes. She couldn't help laughing and shook her head. She found that her elder brother was obviously much happier after returning to the village, probably because he had nothing to do in the county and could only stay in the yard.

She didn't disturb Lin Shuyuan's interest. She gave him a thumbs up and praised him, "Brother, you are really amazing. We didn't even see any bamboo rats."

Mrs. Li tried to hold back her smile as she watched her daughter coax her eldest son.

Lin Shuyuan chuckled, threw the bamboo rat in his hand towards Lin Shuyue, and turned back to the bamboo forest excitedly.

Lin Shuyue flew up and caught the bamboo rat in mid-air, and looked speechlessly at Lin Shuyuan who disappeared into the depths of the bamboo forest.
