After returning home from the town, Lin Yi is still in a state of confusion. This development is not right at all. Shouldn't his time travel be in farming mode?This move by the Shen family is completely like opening some new dungeon, and I can't figure out what's going on.

As well as the money he was holding, Lin Yi didn't know how to tell Zheng Yu and Lin Laosan after he went back, and he felt that they might not believe it. After all, he didn't believe it himself. How could he let others Do people believe it?

Lin Yi's frowning expression was too obvious, both Zheng Yu and Lin Laosan could see that something was wrong, and asked him what was going on, Lin Yi just shook his head.

"I don't know how to tell you. I just encountered something, and I should be able to figure it out when I think about it. I'll tell you when the time comes."

Lin Yi said that Lin Laosan and Zheng Yu couldn't ask too many questions, and told Lin Yi to go to bed after eating and get up early tomorrow, and the government officials would come over.

"Father, are you here to collect taxes? Has it been settled?" Lin Yi asked.

Lin Laosan nodded, "It's settled. The village head asked us to talk about it today. People will come tomorrow. Let our families get ready."

"Then have all the food from our family been brought out?" Lin Yi asked while looking into the main room, but he didn't see any food.

Lin Laosan said: "It's all weighed, and it's stored in my room. Don't worry about it. You can read at home when the food is delivered tomorrow. I'll go to the mountain to have a look."

"Father, can you go to the mountain alone? How about I go with you? It just so happens that I'm going to collect herbs too."

"No need, I won't go inside, I'll be back in half a day, I'm more familiar with this mountain than you, don't worry about me." Youngest Lin asked Lin Yi to continue eating, and drove Lin Yi to his room to sleep after eating.

Lin Yi happened to be in no mood because he couldn't figure it out, so Lin Lao San asked him to go to bed and he went to bed and lay down.

Yuan Xiao stayed with him, knowing that Dad was in a bad mood, Yuan Xiao didn't make any fuss, so she lay down quietly with him.

Lin Yi looked at him, moved his mind, picked him up and sat on his body, "Yuanxiao, Dad, can I tell you a secret?"

Yuan Xiao nodded ignorantly, "Okay, Father, what is a secret?"

Lin Yi was amused by him, this silly boy agreed first without even knowing what the secret was.

Lin Yi smiled and rubbed against Yuanxiao, "My Bao'er is really cute, Daddy tells you, the secret is that I tell you something that no one else knows except me, and then you have to help Daddy keep the secret, It’s just that you can’t tell anyone.”

"Then can't you say anything?" Yuan Xiao asked.

"Yes, Ah can't say it, no one can say it, only you know, Dad knows, can Yuan Xiao do it?"

Yuan Xiao nodded quite positively, "Yes, Yuan Xiao won't tell anyone."

Lin Yi stretched out his hand and pinched his cheek, "Yuanxiao is so good, Dad likes Yuanxiao the most."

Lin Yi felt uncomfortable, thinking that Yuan Xiao didn't understand anyway, so he told Yuan Xiao what he had encountered in the town today, Yuan Xiao listened in a daze, and didn't understand anything.

Lin Yi didn't expect him to understand, he just wanted to find someone to talk about, and he felt much better after speaking.

Lin Yi asked Yuan Xiao, "Does Yuan Xiao not know what Dad is talking about?"

Yuan Xiao nodded, "Father, Yuan Xiao doesn't know."

Lin Yi patted his head and hugged him into his arms, "It doesn't matter if you don't know, just treat Yuan Xiao as your father and never tell you anything, okay?"

"Okay." Yuan Xiao responded obediently, a child of this age would not embarrass himself to think about things he couldn't understand.

He obediently listened to Lin Yi and closed his eyes to sleep.

Although Lin Yi felt less oppressed, he still couldn't sleep, and kept waiting for Zheng Yu to come in.

When Zheng Yu was lying on the bed, he took the initiative to ask Lin Yi, "Sir, did you encounter something when you went to town today?"

Zheng Yu remembered that Lin Yi said that as long as he wanted to know, Lin Yi would tell him.

Lin Yi obviously still remembered what he had said, and was a little hesitant, but he knew very well that talking to Zheng Yu was more useful than talking to Yuan Xiao, because Zheng Yu could understand and even give him advice.

Lin Yi hesitated for a moment, then told everything, and even got up to take out the money.

"Look, there are so many, I haven't figured out what's going on until now."

Zheng Yu was also frightened by Yinzi, "Why are there so many?"

Lin Yi was helpless, "Yeah, I was thinking about it too, but if I couldn't figure it out, I could only worry about it myself."

Zheng Yu is still less calm than Lin Yi. After all, he has never seen so much silver, but Lin Yi is fine. After all, it is Mao Zedong who has the impact on him. This silver is like the gold ingots he ate when he was a child. Like chocolate, not much feeling.

Lin Yi put away the money again, "Forget it, if you don't understand it, don't think about it, go to sleep, maybe I will find out when I go to the market next time."

Zheng Yu felt the same, no matter how much they worry about it, it's useless, it's better to go to the town to ask for clarification.

It was getting late, and the two of them lay down to sleep, and when they fell asleep, no matter how much trouble they had, it didn't matter.

……

The next day, Lin Yi was called up early in the morning, and together with Lin Laosan, they moved all the food into the yard. There were several bags, three or four hundred catties were put in the yard.

After the move, Lin Laosan went to finish the bamboo table he was making, and Lin Yi was instructed by Zheng Yu to go to work, soak some of the beans he exchanged, and then use it to sprout bean sprouts.

Then I washed the vat I bought yesterday over and over again, washed it and drained it, and soaked the radish when I returned from changing the radish.

Then they went to fetch water. There was a field not far from their house, and an open-air well was dug there. They usually fetch water from there.

When the sun rose, Zheng Yu made breakfast, Lin Yi was almost busy, and the family just had breakfast.

These trivial things don't seem like many, but it's not so easy to do it until you actually do it.

After breakfast, Lin Laosan was about to go up the mountain, so he gave Lin Yi his family's household registration, which he would need to pay taxes later.

This household registration has the name, date of birth, gender, and how many fields the family has on the bottom. You can see it clearly by just looking it up. The yamen rely on this to collect taxes.

No one dares to falsify this household registration, and no one dares to hide family members from reporting. If you don't have a household registration, it can be said that it is difficult for you to go anywhere.It can be said that it is the same as having no ID card in modern times, and it is inconvenient to go anywhere.

Lin Yi put away the household registration, and nodded to Lin Laosan, "Father, you go, I will stay at home, and nothing will go wrong."

Lin Laosan was still at ease with Lin Yi, otherwise Lin Yi would not have been watching at home. He went up the mountain with a basket on his back. This was the first time Lin Laosan went up the mountain. What come back.

Lin Yi had nothing to do, so he took out the book and read it. There was not much time left for him. He had this thought, so naturally he had to put it into action.

The clothes that Zheng Yu made for Tang Dongsheng's boy next to him are more than half ready, and now they are embroidering some flowers on them to make the clothes look better.

Yuan Xiao played in the mud alone in the yard, quite happy, no one cared about him, a standard family of three.

Seeing this scene, Lin Yi was secretly happy for a while, then lowered his head and put his thoughts on the book.

……

It was almost noon when the Yacha came to the door of his house, Lin Yi hurried to welcome the people in, and asked Zheng Yu to prepare sugar water for them, one bowl for each.

These yamen servants were easy to talk to. After Lin Yi pointed out where the prepared food was, they weighed it, and after confirming that there was no problem, they moved the food to the wooden cart and left.

During this time, they drank a bowl of water. Lin Yi said that he would stay for dinner, and these people didn't agree, but their impression of Lin Yi was a bit better.

Lin Yi also heaved a sigh of relief after seeing off the yacha, and was afraid of being made things difficult, but luckily he hasn't.

It was indeed noon, and Lin Laosan hadn't come back yet. Lin Yi said to Zheng Yu, "Xiao Yu, you go and cook first. I'll go to the mountain to see if Dad is back. I don't worry if he goes alone for too long."

Zheng Yu nodded, "Sister, you can go, you should also be careful, and come back early."

"Don't worry, I have a sense of proportion. If something happens, I will call you on the mountain, and you can hear it from below."

"it is good!"

Seeing that Zheng Yu agreed, Lin Yi took a hoe and went out.

It's winter moon now, and it's winter now, only a snowfall is needed to prove it.

However, it can be judged from the temperature changes and the fallen leaves all over the mountain that winter is coming, and many trees have become bare.

As soon as Lin Yi went up the mountain, he started calling, "Daddy, Daddy, I'm Lin Yi, where are you, did you hear my voice?"

Lin Yi called Lin Laosan as he walked, and he called Lin Laosan several times before he heard Lin Laosan's response.

"Hey, here, why did you come up the mountain?"

Lin Yi walked in the direction where Lin Laosan's voice came from, and saw Lin Laosan was beating pears on the tree, and the tree fell to the ground, but the pears were so hard that they didn't break when they fell on the ground.

"Father, it's almost time for lunch. I see you haven't returned yet, so I came to take a look." Lin Yi said while squatting down to pick up winter pears.

"What are you worried about? I don't often go up this mountain, but I know more than you. I plan to go back after harvesting the pears."

Lin Yi put a pile of pears into the basket, only to find that Lin Laosan's basket was almost full, and it was filled with walnuts.

"Father, there are still walnuts on this mountain?" Lin Yi turned around and asked Lin Laosan.

Lin Laosan answered Lin Yi's words while looking at the pears on the tree, "This is a hickory nut. There are a lot of these hickory nuts, but they are hard to find. These hickory nuts are much tastier than the walnuts grown at home."

Lin Yi has eaten hickory nuts before, so he naturally knows that hickory nuts taste good, and this thing has many functions, eating some is good for people.

"Father, this is indeed a good thing. Can we still find it in this mountain? If we can find it, let's find some more?"

"It's gone. I've gone to see it all. Everything else has been collected. That's all. I can eat it at home for a while."

Lin Yi was a little disappointed when he heard Lin Laosan's words, but he didn't say anything else, and concentrated on picking pears.

Lin Laosan stopped when he had almost beaten the pears on the tree, and picked them up with Lin Yi.

Lin Yi found that there were still some pears hanging on the tree, so he asked Lin Laosan, "Father, why don't you finish the rest?"

Lin Laosan said: "This is reserved for the birds in this forest. Some birds will eat this pear, and it is difficult to find it in winter. Let me leave a few pears for them to eat in winter."

It is true that some birds can eat pears, but what Lin Yi sighs is that the ancients already knew how to protect the ecology. Compared with them, many modern people are truly primitive people who have not evolved.

The two picked up the pears into the basket, and Lin Yi carried the basket down the mountain. The basket was so full that a few could slip out by accident.

Lin Laosan walked behind Lin Yi, resisting the hoe he brought and the machete he carried himself, and there were still unfinished pears in the back basket in his pocket.

When going down the mountain, I told Lin Yi as I walked up the mountain, I can’t pick everything up at once. If I cut down the tree just to get more this year or something, then next year no more.

It takes three to five years or even ten years to grow a fruit-bearing tree on this mountain, so be careful not to damage the roots when picking it.

Although what Lin Laosan said was not a big reason, Lin Yi listened to it. You can obtain the gifts of nature, but you must also learn to protect them.

The two were talking and arrived home in a short while.

Zheng Yu and Yuan Xiao were standing in the yard, and as soon as they saw them coming back, they hurriedly went to pick up the basket for Lin Yi.

Seeing the full basket, Zheng Yu was also very surprised, "It's still my father who is amazing, he can bring so many things back as soon as he goes up the mountain."

While talking, he moved the basket to the main room, Zheng Yu made all the meals and waited for them to come back to eat.

Zheng Yu wanted to clear out the basket first, but Lin Yi stopped him, "Eat first, the weather is getting colder, and the food won't taste good when it's cold."

Since the distribution of wild boar meat, their family's food has been pretty good, and they eat meat almost every meal.

Zheng Yu didn't move after hearing Lin Yi's words, and sat down to eat.

In the middle of eating, Lin Laosan said, "I have to go to the mountain in the afternoon, I'm looking at the winter bamboo shoots, and see if I can dig some back."

"Winter bamboo shoots? Dad, there are still winter bamboo shoots on this mountain?" Lin Yi was very surprised.

"There are some, but not too many. Although we have a lot of bamboos here, they don't grow winter bamboo shoots very much, and we can dig them once a year."

There are indeed many bamboos, and they are everywhere as soon as you go up the mountain, but he really hasn't paid attention to the winter bamboo shoots, and he doesn't know if there are any.

"Father, then I'll go up the mountain with you after dinner. If there are, we'll dig more, if not, I'll dig herbs."

"Success, let's go together!" Lin Laosan agreed.

Lin Yi shifted his gaze to Zheng Yu, "Xiao Yu, are you still making clothes this afternoon?"

Zheng Yu shook his head lightly, "The clothes are almost done. I'll change some radishes in the afternoon and come back. Didn't you say to make pickled radishes? I'll prepare them first."

It is indeed what he said, but Zheng Yu can't do it, and Lin Yi also found out that although someone made pickles, he had never seen this pickled radish. It is very likely that it has something to do with the salt water. It is easy to grow flowers and grow insects, and a jar of radishes is useless.

Lin Yi said: "Then you go and change it. Go to An Ge's house to have a look. Last time I saw a large piece of radish outside his yard, you can change some back. In addition, prepare chili, pepper, ginger and garlic, and there are not many at home. , see if you can change it back."

Zheng Yu nodded in response to each one. These villages have them all, and the prickly ash is picked directly from the tree, so it is easy to change.

After finishing the meal, he started tidying up the basket that Lin Laosan was looking for. Lin Laosan told Lin Yi to throw it all down on the ground, "There are still a lot of yams underneath, all of which are edible."

Foot plank, what the hell?

Lin Yi was dumbfounded.

After he poured out the contents of the back basket, Lin Yi saw the so-called foot planks, which looked like small round fruits, and those that really looked like foot planks, no wonder they were called this.

Lin Laosan said to Lin Yi: "Before the doctor said you couldn't eat it for you, the family didn't dig it. Now you can eat it when you are well. I dug a lot after seeing it today. The big one was dug from the ground. The small ones grow on vines, and the small ones are boiled and eaten as snacks for Yuanxiao."

Lin Yi looked at it for a long time, and finally remembered that the small round fruit should be yam beans, and the big one is called yam, and it is indeed edible.

It's just that he didn't react when he suddenly heard the name "foot board potato".

Lin Yi packed the yam beans and yam separately, and the rest were walnuts and winter pears, and some chestnuts mixed in, each of which was packed separately, which was still quite a lot.

After tidying up, Lin Laosan went up the mountain with a backpack on his back. There was actually a backpack at home, which was made up by Lin Laosan, but Lin Laosan said it would take two days to carry it, so they only carried one when they went up the mountain. Back basket, go straight to the destination.

As soon as he walked in, Lin Yi really saw two pointed bamboo shoots. They didn't look big, but a pointed point was exposed outside.

Lin Laosan dug it up with a hoe in the past, and there was a bamboo whip on it, which extended out together.

Naturally, Lin Yi didn't have such good skills. He was afraid that the hoe would be useless, so he took the hoe and dug around. When he saw it, he called Lin Laosan to dig it.

After digging, Lin Yi seemed to hear the sound of a rooster crowing, and he stopped looking for Dong, and just followed the direction of the rooster's crowing, looking for it lightly, like a thief.

Walking forward for a while, I really saw a group of bamboo chickens. The bamboo chickens are not big, they often move around in the bamboo forest, and they are not too afraid of people. Lin Yi thought it was a pheasant at first, but when he saw it was a bamboo chicken. I was a little disappointed, the bamboo chicken was too small to eat after catching it back, so it was better not to waste this effort.

Bamboo Chicken didn't want Lin Yi to go back, and continued to look for winter bamboo shoots.

Lin Laosan saw him coming back and asked him, "What did you go to see?"

"When I heard the rooster crowing, I went to see it. It turned out to be a bamboo chicken."

Lin Laosan didn't stop, "There are a lot of bamboo chickens in this bamboo forest, and there are bamboo bees and mice in summer, but no one eats them, and those things are not easy to catch."

When Lin Yi wanted to eat mice, his whole body was in a bad mood. Forget it, he could really accept other things, but mice were not.

Lin Yi shook his head quickly, not thinking about these things, and continued to work.

He and Lin Laosan dug the winter bamboo shoots in the bamboo forest all afternoon, and they really dug them a lot. Lin Yi also found a lot of herbs nearby, and let him dig them back. After all, there will be a business at that time of.

Seeing that the sun was about to set, they went down the mountain with hoes and baskets on their backs.

On the way, Lin Laosan dragged several dead bamboos back to use as firewood.

"I'm coming to chop firewood in two days. If I don't light a fire this winter, I will definitely have a hard time."

Lin Yi was also worried about whether their thatched house could hold up, "Father, do you think we should cut some wood to support the house, if there is too much snow this winter, it may cause problems. "

Lin Laosan thought for a while and said: "It's time to support it. When I chop firewood, I will chop a few more logs and carry them back. Don't worry about this matter. You can read your book at ease. There are not many woods in the winter fields. I can do it by myself."

Lin Laosan had good intentions, and Lin Yi didn't want to say anything that would make him unhappy, so he nodded and agreed. At worst, he just followed suit.

By the time they got home, Zheng Yu had already returned with the Lantern Festival, so he was very happy to see them come back with a basket of winter bamboo shoots on their backs.

Zheng Yu was busy washing radishes, Lin Yi put down his things and washed them with him, and Lin Laosan peeled some winter bamboo shoots out.

"Third boy, I will send some of the remaining winter bamboo shoots to Brother An, and to Liangzi's house, and the village chief will also send some. I will keep some for myself and eat for two meals."

Winter bamboo shoots are a good thing, but Lin Laosan didn't plan to eat them all by himself, so he asked Lin Yi to run errands to send them away.

Lin Yi nodded, "Father, leave it alone, I will deliver it tomorrow, and soak the sour radish today."

Lin Yi asked Zheng Yu to prepare everything. After washing the radishes, cut them into pieces, marinate them with salt for a while, and then put them in a jar. Add some water and a little sugar to make the radishes more crispy. , and then just put salt and pepper, chili, ginger, garlic and other things into it.

Lin Yi made it when he wanted to eat it in his previous life, so he was very proficient. After making it, cover it and eat it after two or three days.

After they were done, they packed up their things, Zheng Yu made dinner, and Lin Yi took Yuan Xiao to the yard to play around until it was time for dinner.

On the second day, Lin Yi went to deliver things to each family, and at the same time brought back a lot of things, all of which were returned to them by others, with all kinds of vegetables and radishes being the most.

After returning home, he read at home, switching back and forth between various classics and medical books. For several days, Lin Yi looked up and felt that the sky was full of words.

After finally going to the town on the day of the market, Lin Yi still wanted to relax, but when he thought about what happened last time, he didn't feel very good.

And the first thing he did when he arrived at the town was to go to Miaoshou Hall, and saw the door was wide open, Qian Fei led all the people standing at the door with a solemn expression.

Looking at their reactions, Lin Yi suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart.
