Chapter 170

Picking up wild goods (2)

"Second sister, why are you still standing there? Most of the chestnuts have fallen off the tree. Come and pick them up quickly."

After hearing Lu Xiaoxiao's words, the second sister finally came back to her senses. She closed her open mouth and swallowed, "Xiaoxiao, you must be too strong."

"Haha... I was born with strong strength. Maybe I followed my father, who is very strong." That was all I could say in order to prevent the second sister from asking further questions.

"So that's the case, so it's not surprising. I follow my father's eating habits. My father and I are the two biggest eaters in my family."

"Second sister, let's not discuss the issue of genetics now. Let's pick up chestnuts quickly and see if there are enough chestnuts on the ground to fill our backpacks. If there are not enough, I will kick them down more."

For more than an hour, Lu Xiaoxiao and the second sister kept peeling the thorn shells to get the chestnuts. When they encountered the thorn shells that were particularly difficult to open, Lu Xiaoxiao took advantage of the second sister and the others to take advantage of them and put them into the space.

By about four o'clock in the afternoon, all the chestnuts that had been shaken down were finally picked up. Although the four people's baskets were only two-thirds full, it was the best.

Firstly, the basket was filled with chestnuts with thorns peeled off. If the basket was full, you can imagine how heavy it would be. Therefore, two-thirds full was just within the weight range that the second sister and the others could bear.

Secondly, one-third of the space in the backpack can be used to put pigweed, so that the chestnuts in the basket can be hidden from others.

"Second sister, it's getting late now, and we have to cut pigweed to cover the chestnuts later, so let's go down the mountain first and pick up the remaining chestnuts tomorrow."

"Okay, but we won't cut the pigweed tomorrow morning. Looking at the chestnuts left on the trees, it will probably take three trips to pick them all. Let's come early tomorrow and try to pick them all in one day.

And now that the autumn harvest is over, villagers go up the mountain to pick up wild goods every day. I’m afraid they will find this, so we must hurry up.”

"Okay, but second sister, be careful when you go home. Don't let others see that what you are carrying is not pigweed. After all, a basketful of pigweed is much lighter than a basketful half full of chestnuts."

"Xiaoxiao, don't worry. We have been working since we were young. Although we are not as strong as you, we still have no problem carrying these chestnuts."

"That's good, let's go down the mountain now."

When she came to the foot of the mountain, Lu Xiaoxiao found that there was no one around, so she quickly cut a handful of pigweed and put it into her basket. The second sister and the others did the same thing. After doing all this, Lu Xiaoxiao and the second sister made an appointment for tomorrow.

When we went up the mountain, we each went home.

When Lu Xiaoxiao returned home, she dumped all the chestnuts in her basket on the ground. She picked out all the scratched ones and put all the intact ones into the space for storage.

Lu Xiaoxiao looked at a pile of scratched chestnuts on the ground, and suddenly thought of the chestnut rice and chestnut roast chicken she had eaten at a farm in her previous life, and couldn't help but swallow her saliva.

Tonight she must eat chestnut rice and chestnut roasted chicken, otherwise she would probably drool when dreaming at night. In her previous life, she fell in love with chestnut roasted and chestnut rice after eating chestnut roasted and chestnut rice at the farm in her previous life. However, since the farm is located somewhere else,

province, so she never had the chance to eat there again.

Later, Lu Xiaoxiao also bought chestnuts and tried to cook these two dishes at home, but she could never get the same flavor as those cooked in a large farmhouse firewood pot.

Now she has a big firewood pot and ingredients. It can be said that she has the right time, place and people. She will definitely be able to cook that kind of flavor this time. She has also solved a small regret in her previous life.
