Chapter 32 Suggestions for building a mountain road, raising a litter of bamboo rats
Yun Jiutian and his wife obviously didn't expect that the two young children would run to the valley together, and taught them a lesson seriously. Yun Yue immediately cried aggrievedly, "Uncle, uncle, grandma, you don't know! Xiao Yue'er walked so badly! The grass on both sides of the mountain road was too high, and Xiao Yue'er almost couldn't find the direction! Later, she almost stepped into the grass pit. If Brother Chen hadn't pulled me, I would have fallen down! Woo woo..."
Yun Jiutian felt both distressed and funny. When Yun Yue cried like this, his serious face could no longer be tense. He had to comfort her. Gu Chen remained silent from the beginning. Seeing that the old couple didn't teach him a lesson, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief. He handed Yun Yue to Yun Jiutian and his wife, and went to the deep mountains with a bow and arrow machete alone.
When Yun Jiutian comforted Yun Yue and planned to say to Gu Chen, there was no figure of Gu Chen. The old couple began to worry about Gu Chen's comfort again.
Yun Yue took the opportunity to say, "Uncle, I think the mountain road from the village to the treasure pot should be repaired. Look, we will definitely get back the grain when the autumn harvest is over. If the mountain road is not easy to walk, then it will fall like me, how miserable it will be!"
Yun Jiutian looked at the little guy who was talking in front of him with a funny look. Although he didn't live in the village, he knew what Yun Yue did. He pinched Yun Yue's little nose and joked: "Your father and others are still repairing the school. If you ask them to come to repair the mountain road again, do you believe your father can cut you?"
Yun Yue was suffocated and became much weaker. After a while, she said with confidence: "But if my uncle still lives in the treasure pot in winter, you can't go back to the village after the snow is blocked by the mountain. We can't come here, but it will be different if the mountain road is repaired. Even if we can still enter the mountains in winter, come to the treasure pot, and fish!"
There is also a big lake here in the Cornucopia, which is almost impossible to hunt in winter. Except for the beasts raised behind the ancestral hall, there is no fresh meat. It is rare to have a lake here. She doesn't believe that the people in the village can watch the big fish in the lake without being moved.
Yun Jiutian was already confused by Yun Yue. If Yun Yue had not been smarter than ordinary people since childhood, he would have thought that this child had a monster. He sighed in his heart, but he did not show off his face. He neither matched nor refuted, but let Yun Yue play alone.
Yun Yue had a clear mind and took her exclusive fishing rod obediently to the lake. In the past, Yun Jiutian was worried that she would be close to the water alone. Later, she found that there were big stones blocking the place Yun Yue looked for every time, and she was never too close to the water, so she could go there with confidence.
Yun Yue came to the water alone and found that there was no one around. She immediately got two big fish from the space into the bucket. While there was no one here, she immediately ran to the field to search everywhere. As long as there was nothing in the space, she got in and was so busy that she stopped until Ye called her to eat from a distance.
"Oh! Our Xiao Yue'er is better than your uncle and grandpa. Every time you fish, you will get something for me!" Ye praised him without hesitation when he saw the two big fish in Yun Yue's bucket.
After packing the medicinal materials, Yun Jiutian came over to take a look, and agreed with Ye's statement.
At noon, there were only three of them for rice. Gu Chen didn't know where to go and didn't even come back to use it. Ye had to put his portion in a pot and warm it.
Gu Chen did not return to the treasure pot with a bunch of things until it was almost dark. Yun Yue saw the pheasant and hare tied to his waist and jumped happily, cheering, "Brother Chen, eat meat tonight!"
Gu Chen pinched Yun Yue's little face in a doting manner and said warmly: "In addition to these pheasants and hares, today I have good luck to take a nest of bamboo rats. I killed the big one, and the little one is still alive. Let Grandpa Tian build a nest to raise these bamboo rats later."
Now the crops in the fields are almost ripe, so it is enough to feed them with those crop poles. If not, you can still make some grass nearby. It is completely fine to raise a few bamboo rats. Moreover, bamboo rats can be made into soup, and there is no harm in raising them.
Yun Jiutian saw a nest of small bamboo rats praising Gu Chen for being able. He turned around and immediately paved the floor with some stone slabs left to build the house. He formed a circle around him and used it as a nest of small bamboo rats. Gu Chen helped build a thatched roof and barely made the place where the small bamboo rats were.
After working here, it was completely dark. Ye burned hot water and asked several people to wash it.
The supper was made of bamboo rat soup and braised pheasant meat, steamed fish, and some seasonings grown in the fields were used. Yun Yue almost swallowed it with her tongue, and praised Ye's skills.
Not long after the meal, Yun Jiutian urged Gu Chen and Yun Yue to go to bed. After the old couple returned to the room, Yun Jiutian said to Ye: "Today, the girl Yue said she wanted to build a mountain road. I thought about it for a day and felt that this was really necessary. Not to mention that we would go back and forth to the village and the Yaowang Valley from time to time in the future. Even this lake can add a meal of meat or two to the villagers in the middle of winter. If a woman born in winter, she can eat something good."
Ye, rubbed the towel and lowered his head and smiled, "You have already had an idea, you still have to ask me! It's just that some of the people in the village are busy building school. Seeing that the autumn harvest is coming, it is definitely too late to build a mountain road at this time. It's because the villagers have not gone to the mountains to collect herbs and hunt. This year, the villagers have not had any good food, but there is less meat. I'm afraid that my elder brother will organize people to enter the mountain after the autumn harvest. If there is no one there, the mountain road will not be able to be repaired."
Building a mountain road is not as simple as building a house. Since you have to build a stone staircase, you must make a stone staircase. Cutting stones is a big project, not to mention that the distance from the village to Yaowang Valley is not at all close. Even if you can use wood to replace it, it will still cost a lot of manpower and material resources.
Yun Jiutian sighed. What Ye said was what he was worried about, so he did not answer Yun Yue's words as soon as possible.
"Forget it, this is a major event in the village. You must have all the villagers agree to it before it can be repaired. There is no hurry!" Yun Jiutian murmured to himself.
As long as the autumn harvest is after this year, villagers will realize the importance of building mountain roads when they see the actual benefits brought to them by the Medicine King Valley. Even if he doesn't speak, someone will be afraid that they will propose it first.
Thinking of this, Yun Jiutian felt relieved again, and then talked to Ye's family about Yun Yue, and sighed: "I don't know what kind of virtue I have accumulated from my second brother, but he actually produced such a pearl as Yue. Unfortunately, it's not a man. Otherwise, my Yun family might be able to turn over!"
Ye's face changed, he looked up at the distance, looked solemn, and lowered his voice: "The affairs of the Yun family have always been not a matter of one person, and even if the girl Yue is a man, it is not easy. Don't let the child hear these words in the future. She has always been smart and will definitely ask the bottom line."
