Farming in another world to make a fortune
Chapter 46
When Jin Chuan heard that he was going to visit Qingyan Mountain, he acted very cautiously, and got up early the next morning to prepare the things that the two of them would need.
First of all, the clothes. The two of them have never been to Qingyan Mountain before. Even though they guessed that the mountain that can be selected as the scholar's ascent meeting will not be too difficult to climb, the two of them still abandoned their usual clothes and changed them to work in the fields. A bunt that is only worn from time to time.
The hair is also wrapped in a handkerchief, which is no different from ordinary villagers working in the mountains.
For breakfast, instead of the usual porridge with pickles and fried eggs, I cooked rice specially. In addition to the dishes to eat, I also fried bacon and vegetables to make rice balls.
Qingyan Mountain doesn't look very high, but Yu Zhou and Jinchuan are going to step on the spot, and many scenery needs to be observed carefully, so Yu Zhou proposes to bring some food and eat on the mountain at noon.
Originally, he wanted to bring some materials to the mountain for a picnic, but it has not rained for a long time recently, and the vegetation in the mountain is extremely dry, so he was afraid that the picnic would accidentally cause a fire.
After Yu Zhou put the rice balls wrapped in vegetable leaves and the bamboo tubes filled with water in the basket, he thought for a while and took the hatchet and rope with him.
Jin Chuan was puzzled, "What are you doing with the rope?"
He can still understand the hatchet, chopping a thorn that blocks the way, or even just for courage, but he doesn't understand what the rope is for.
"When I was holding a hatchet, I saw it and took it with me." Yu Zhou really didn't expect it to be useful, but when he saw it, he always felt that it should be useful. "It's not heavy anyway."
Jin Chuan laughed, "Then let's take it together."
After the two came out of the yard, they locked the door behind them, and entrusted Aunt Chen next door to look after the house before leaving.
It took Yu Zhou and Jin Chuan about a stick of incense to reach Qingyan Mountain, and found the way up the mountain that Mr. Wen pointed out.
At the entrance of the mountain road is an open flat land, and in the middle of the flat land stands a stone tablet with the words Qingyan Mountain written on it.
With a thought in his heart, Yu Zhou carefully turned around twice on the flat ground, took note of the surrounding scenery one by one, and then asked Jin Chuan: "If you were asked to choose one thing to write a poem here, what would you choose?"
"Ginkgo." Without thinking, Jin Chuan pointed to the two towering ginkgo trees beside the stele.
"Me too." Yu Zhou said with a smile.
The two ginkgo trees are bigger than one person's arms. At this time, the leaves are just dyed a layer of light yellow, which is very eye-catching.
By the beginning of September, the leaves should all turn golden yellow, and even the ground will be covered with a golden blanket. When a group of scholars come here, seeing this scenery, I am afraid it will be difficult to stop writing poems.
After going up, Yu Zhou will write down any novel or outstanding things he sees along the way, and he will also ask Jin Chuan for his opinion.
The scenery of Qingyan Mountain is indeed much better than that of Yu Zhou and the others who often cut firewood.
There is not only a clear stream in the mountain, but also a waterfall falling from the top of the mountain. There is a pavilion next to the waterfall, and you can look at the distant scenery from the pavilion.
Yu Zhou and Jin Chuan stayed in the gazebo for a long time before taking a look at the sky, "Let's go to the top of the mountain first, and come back to rest and eat in the gazebo at noon."
Jin Chuan responded with a 'hmm'. There was a waterfall next to the gazebo. The water vapor sprayed from the waterfall took away most of the heat in the air. It would be very comfortable to rest here at noon.
From the gazebo to the top of the mountain, you have to make a big circle, and then go up, the vegetation on the roadside is dense, but the scenery is not as good as the previous gazebo.
There was no attractive scenery, so Yu Zhou's gaze began to scan the forest uncontrollably, trying to find edible wild fruits and the like.
It turned out that he found it.
Not far from the mountain road, there is a persimmon tree full of golden fruits.
When Yu Zhou saw it, he immediately pulled Jinchuan's hand excitedly, "I saw persimmons, we will pick some back when we go down the mountain."
Jin Chuan looked in the direction of his finger, and saw some egg-sized fruits hanging on the not-too-high persimmon tree.
Although the fruit is not big, it grows densely, and it looks golden at a glance, which is very gratifying.
After Jin Chuan finished watching the persimmons, he looked back at his excited husband, and finally understood why he insisted on carrying such a big basket.
The scenery of this section of the mountain road is average. When we reach the top of the mountain, the scenery is not bad.
The top of Qingyan Mountain is divided into two parts. On one side is the real peak with a few huge rocks. Some poems are engraved on the stones. There are also a few pine trees growing in the wind scattered between the rock cracks and the edge of the cliff.
The ground on the other side has sunk downwards, forming a green and deep cold pool. The previous waterfall is probably the water flowing out of the cold pool.
Yu Zhou secretly remembered all the scenery he had seen, discussed with Jin Chuan some ideas, and then wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "It's almost there, let's go back."
Then the two went to the forest to pick persimmons, and Yu Zhou didn't stop until the basket was full. He even harvested a few August fruits by accident.
It was already noon, and the sun was shining brightly above the head. Even though there were trees in the forest for shade, it was still very hot because it was not ventilated.
Anyway, the basket was full, so Yu Zhou said, "Let's go to the gazebo to eat, rest for a while, and go home when it's cooler."
The road down the mountain was fast, and there was nothing to observe, but in about two quarters of an hour, the two returned to the pavilion.
He just stepped into the gazebo, and before Yu Zhou had time to put down the basket, he heard someone say on the way down the mountain: "Young master, there is a gazebo in front of you, just hold on, let's go there to rest."
The movement of Yu Zhou's hands paused, and he exchanged a glance with Jin Chuan, both of them were puzzled.
There are villages around Qingyan Mountain, and he hasn't heard of anyone who has bought servants, and at noon, apart from people like him who came to step on the spot, or hunters in the village, Yu Zhou can't think of anything else People will come to the mountains.
He slowly lowered his back basket and put it in the corner of the gazebo, and then he and Jin Chuan chose a place to sit near the waterfall and where it was convenient to see the scenery outside the mountain.
The rice balls and bamboo tubes filled with water were still in the basket, and there was no intention of taking them out.
After waiting for a while, Yu Zhou could only hear the person called Young Master talking, but the other person didn't make a sound.
If he hadn't gotten closer and heard another relatively rough panting sound, he would have thought it was that person talking to himself.
Finally, the voice of the voice reached under the gazebo, and Yu Zhou also saw two fluffy heads emerging slowly from under the rock.
When the visitor walked outside the gazebo, he was taken aback for a moment when he saw that there were already people in the gazebo.
But the person dressed as a scholar for the head looked really tired. After Zhao Yuzhou and Jin Chuan nodded as a greeting, he was supported by the person dressed as a book boy behind him and sat down on the other side of the gazebo.
Yu Zhou glanced at the scholar opposite without any trace, feeling quite strange.
It's not because he came to climb Qingyan Mountain at noon, he was dressed as a scholar after all, if he could think of stepping on the spot before the climbing meeting, others could also.
It was because of the appearance of the scholar.
He was obviously exhausted, but there was not a single drop of sweat on his forehead, and his complexion was very different from that of the book boy, too pale to see a trace of blood, even his lips were white.
As soon as the two of them sat down, the bookboy hurriedly took out the bamboo tube from the basket, opened it and handed it to the scholar, "Master, drink some water first."
Yu Zhou frowned, and couldn't hold back when the scholar brought the bamboo tube to his lips, he said, "Wait a minute."
The scholar stopped drinking water, looked at Yu Zhou, breathlessly said: "What's the matter, brother?"
Yu Zhou touched his nose, "I don't think your health is very good, and you just came out of the sun, it's best not to rush to drink water, so as not to get caught."
The book boy hurriedly took the bamboo tube away from the scholar's hand, "Then young master, let's drink it later."
The scholar was stunned, his expression lost for a moment, and then he gave Yu Zhou his hands, "Thank you for reminding me, brother."
Yu Zhou waved his hand to express that he doesn't care.
Afterwards, the gazebo became very quiet for a while, none of the four people spoke, only the loud crash of water falling from the nearby waterfall into the pool.
Until Yu Zhou's stomach gurgled lightly, he no longer cared whether the person opposite had anything to eat, took out the bamboo tube from the back basket, asked Jin Chuan to drink some water first, and then took out the rice balls made in the morning and set them up .
After thinking about it, he felt that he didn't care if the two of them ate and the two of them looked at each other, but Jin Chuan probably would feel uncomfortable.
He picked two August melons, handed them to the scholar opposite, and said, "Don't drink the water, but you can eat something else. I picked them in the mountains just now."
He thought it would be inconvenient for August melons to spit out their seeds, and the time it took for the two people on the opposite side to eat a melon each was probably enough time for him and Jin Chuan to finish eating the rice balls.
After the scholar took it, he quickly thanked him: "Thank you, Mr. He, for your kindness, but I don't know what to call your brother."
"Yu Zhou," Yu Zhou said casually, "What about you?"
"He Yunqi is here." He Yunqi said and bowed like a scholar.
Yu Zhou also returned one, but he thought that this person's name and appearance really didn't match.
He Yunqi was overjoyed when he saw this, "Brother Yu is also a scholar."
Yu Zhou nodded his head as an admission, then sat back by the gazebo, lowered his head and began to eat rice balls.
He Yunqi's school boys also displayed the food they had brought. They brought much more food than Yu Zhou and the others. In addition to the staple food of steamed stuffed bun and meatloaf, there were also fruits.
It's just that He Yunqi glanced away and looked away, he didn't seem to have much appetite.
It wasn't until the book boy took out a few peaches that he reached out to pick up two, but instead of eating it himself, he stepped forward and handed it to Yu Zhou and said, "Brother Yu, please try the peaches I brought, this is from my own yard." The peach trees here are more delicious than other places."
The two peaches are not much smaller than a fist. The fluff on the surface has been cleaned, and the flesh inside seems to be visible through the thin, almost transparent skin. It looks crisp and sweet from the outside.
Yu Zhou hesitated for a moment, thanked him and took it.
Afterwards, they each ate, and the two sides didn't talk any more. In the gazebo, there were only the voices of Yu Zhou and Jin Chuan whispering softly, and the voice of the book boy opposite him urging He Yunqi to eat more.
After Yu Zhou and Jin Chuan finished eating the rice balls, they each ate a peach from He Yunqi.The peaches were indeed as He Yunqi said, much tastier than those sold in the town.
After they finished eating, He Yunqi had already stopped eating and sat alone outside the gazebo looking at the mountains outside in a daze.
Yu Zhou whispered to Jin Chuan for a while, both of them felt that He Yunqi should not be here like them, so they stepped forward and asked, "Why did Brother He come to Qingyan Mountain at this time?"
First of all, the clothes. The two of them have never been to Qingyan Mountain before. Even though they guessed that the mountain that can be selected as the scholar's ascent meeting will not be too difficult to climb, the two of them still abandoned their usual clothes and changed them to work in the fields.
