After the heavy rain, the air in the forest was moist and fresh.

The road was wet, and the moss at the base of the big tree had soaked up the rain and squeezed out one fat mushroom after another.

By the side of the mountain road, the orange cages hung like swaying golden bells.

Jin Xiaolou carried the basket and picked it up from under the pine trees.

The whole mushroom at the base of the masson pine was carrot-colored, with a thick, flat cover and a pattern like the rings of a pine tree.

This mushroom mushroom is thick, tender and delicious. Jin Xiaolou had previously specially studied Pine Mushrooms, and found that they were not only delicious and delicious, but also had a lot of nutrients, and had a certain amount of medicinal value.

This was one of nature's delicacies. Jin Xiaolou originally wanted to pick some wild fruits and make a Wild Mountain Fruit pizza, but who would have thought that she would meet so many mushrooms.

After walking for a short while, the basket had already been filled with mushrooms of various colors.

Just as he was about to turn back, he suddenly saw a large patch of white fescue.

Jin Xiaolou understood these weeds very well. They were grown in large numbers and were intertwined in dense bushes. As a result, the bushes were hidden and warm, making it the best choice for some wild birds to build their nests.

Jin Xiaolou put the basket to the side, tore off two pieces of grass and tied up her pants.

There were many bugs in the wild. If he didn't fasten his pants tightly, who knew what kind of bugs would crawl in.

He then took a dried up stick and walked into the grass.

The wild grass grew unscrupulously, and was almost as tall as Jin Xiaolou. They went back and forth until they couldn't see the road ahead clearly, and could only rely on the stick to poke and feel the ground.

After scurrying for an unknown amount of time, they still came up empty-handed. Not to mention the bird's nest, they didn't even see a single feather.

Just as Jin Xiaolou wanted to give up, she turned around and swept her gaze across them.

A nest of white thatch a meter to her left.

Jin Xiaolou went over to check, only to find that the mother bird was not there. There were around ten oval shaped, light olive yellow eggs.

This is a wild egg.

Jin Xiaolou was ecstatic, she extended her hand and touched the egg, it was still warm, it seemed that the wild chicken mother did not walk far, she was probably looking for food.

Jin Xiaolou knew that once the wild chicken found out that someone had touched his eggs, it would destroy all the eggs in his nest and make up for it with another nest.

Jin Xiaolou adhered to the principle of not wasting time, for the sake of the Lin'er, she had no choice but to waste time.

She carefully picked up the wild eggs one by one and placed them in her bosom. There were a total of 18 of them.

After he was done, he turned back the way he had come.

She felt as if she hadn't been in the woods for long, but the moment she stepped out of the woods, it was almost dark.

His stomach was growling from hunger.

Jin Xiaolou carried the basket back to the small courtyard. A fire was already lit in the kitchen, but there was no one there.

Jin Xiaolou put down the basket and eggs. When she returned to the room, she saw a small cradle hanging in the middle of the room.

A cloth strap fell around the beam, and a bamboo basket was tied to one end of it.

The Lin'er lied in the basket with his blanket over him. Gui Zhi sat in front of the bed and gently pushed the cradle forward while humming a song that Jin Xiaolou had never heard before.

"Gui Qi, where did this cradle come from?"

Jin Xiaolou asked as she entered the room.

Gui Zhi lowered his head and smiled. Then, two faint dimples appeared on his face, "How is this thing? I spent a day making it today. "

"My God, Gui Qi, what a genius you are!" Jin Xiaolou wanted to hug her.

With this little cradle, I can really free my mother's hands!

"I saw a bamboo forest growing beside the forest, so I chopped down the bamboo and made a basket. I wanted to use the bamboo as a bed for Lin'er to sleep on, but when I saw that Lin'er liked to be carried around by people, I might as well cut two strings and tie them to the house beams to make it like this."

Gui Zhi shook the small cradle. "This way, you don't have to hug and shake it. It will save you energy and also make the Lin'er more comfortable."

"But this beam is so high, Gui Qi, how did you tie it up?" Jin Xiaolou asked.

Gui Zhi raised his eyebrows and said, "Isn't this simple? A stone is tied to one end of the cloth belt. Isn't it easy to throw it away?"

The two of them laughed for a while. Jin Xiaolou then went to the kitchen and looked at the dough that was covered in the morning.

He pressed lightly on the dough, and before it could ferment properly, he placed it aside once more.

He brought out the rice that was already cooked in the pot, poured hot oil and fried a truffle mushroom, a wild egg, and steamed a bowl of fragrant egg soup for Lin'er.

She said that no matter what, she had to go and wash the dishes. Jin Xiaolou could not reject her, so she took the broken egg and carefully stuck it onto the bubble on Lin'er's hands and feet.

By the time Gui Zhi finished his work and entered the room, the sky was already completely dark.

Jin Xiaolou and the others did not have any candles, only the lantern that they had brought over yesterday was used up.

Once the sky darkened, there was nothing that could be done. Only the Lin'er's slurred voice could be heard from time to time could be heard.

Jin Xiaolou opened her round eyes and blinked her eyes in the darkness. She wasn't used to sleeping so early in the morning.

After thinking for a while, he suddenly asked Gui Qi, "Do you know which families in the village have cattle?"

After asking, he added, "Cow."

Gui Qi was stunned. "Why are you asking this? Cow... "Only Granny Zheng's house on the west side of the village was left with her family. With no one to plow the farmland with, they exchanged the cattle for a cow from the town and used it to raise calves."

Gui Qi continued, "Grandma Zheng's cow just laid down her calf a few days ago and exchanged it with Li Zheng's family for half a year's worth of food."

"Is that so? That's great! " Jin Xiaolou reached out and poked Gui Qi, "When Lin'er is asleep, let's run out!"

"Run..." "Run out …?" Gui Qi was stunned. "Where are you going?"

"Let's go to Grandma Zheng's house and milk her!" Jin Xiaolou could not hide the excitement in her tone.

This feeling was too similar to high school. After the lights in the dorm went out, he carried the auntie with him and sneaked out to play.

"Milk?" Gui Zhi immediately extended his hand out and placed it on Jin Xiaolou's forehead.

Gui Zhi's hand was warm and soft. The moment it touched Jin Xiaolou's cold and icy forehead, it immediately heated up.

"Lou, you can't have gotten sick from me and got a fever, right? are already starting to talk nonsense. " Gui Zhi repeatedly touched it and said, "It's not that hot either."

Jin Xiaolou pulled Gui Zhi's hand away, "If you're not talking nonsense, let's go milk and make some cheese!"

"It's dark. Every household in the village has fallen asleep. Who knows what we did in the dark!" Jin Xiaolou encouraged her by saying, "Besides, don't you want to eat cheese? It's better with cheese in the pizza. "

"Lou, how did you know so many strange things? I've never heard of cheese. "

"If you don't know, then you must try even more." Jin Xiaolou listened to the movements of the Lin'er, "Come, Gui Qi, there are many things you don't know, follow me, I will bring you to try!"

Gui Qi was a little afraid and a little perturbed, but when Jin Xiaolou held onto her hand, she threw caution to the wind.

In the night sky after the heavy rain, the stars were twinkling.

Under the twinkling stars, the bright white tea flowers fell to the ground when they met with the two flying girls.

Just as she ran past a bunch of wild sweet potatoes, Jin Xiaolou pulled back with the osmanthus branch. Borrowing the moonlight, she plucked two large round leaves from the sweet potato.

Jin Xiaolou folded the leaf and changed it into the shape of a small hat. She then put it on Gui Qi and herself.

Gui Zhi scratched Jin Xiaolou's nose. This little girl, sher wishful thinking had increased more and more recently. But Gui Zhi actually liked the current Jin Xiaolou, he was so passionate, smart and clear, like a flowing mountain spring.

Unlike the past, he would only be oppressed by others if he didn't say anything after a long period of silence.

The two of them crossed the field and entered the village. As soon as they entered, the village dogs began to bark in twos and threes.

However, as the dogs continued to bark, no one dared to get up to check.

They crossed half the village and found their way behind the stone mill at Grandma Zheng's house.

Granny Zhen had no dog, only a cow, shut up in a barn next to the house.

Jin Xiaolou took out the wooden barrel she had prepared beforehand, took a deep breath and walked into the cow shed.

This was the first time she heard of milking a cow. It was so strong, if one accidentally hurt the cow, what would happen to one of her legs?

Just as he was thinking this, the cow in the cow shed started bawling.

Gui Qi immediately clutched his chest, extremely nervous.

Jin Xiaolou's voice came from inside: "Don't be afraid, we're awake. She's very obedient."

Just as he finished speaking, an oil lamp lit up in the room.
