One, two, three...
Linzhou seemed tireless as he dug out the chicken mushrooms from the soil one by one.
Moreover, the movements are becoming faster and more skillful.
Instead of being depressed, his spirit became even more excited.
Because each of these chicken mushrooms is very strong.
The feeling is just like fishing. Within two seconds of casting the rod into the water, the float starts to float, and then you pull it and a fish comes up.
In this situation, you won’t feel tired even if you fish for a whole day.
Linzhou’s current situation is similar to this.
Time passes by unknowingly.
While washing his changed clothes, he was also thinking about his next plans.
Because, when he thought of what he had just gained, he couldn't help laughing.
"Mom!" Linzhou heard the voice, turned his head, looked at the woman in front of him with graying hair and a haggard face, and shouted.
Then, he took the chicken mushroom from Linzhou's hand and took over his work: "You must not have eaten since you came back. Go downstairs and eat something quickly. Don't starve. I'll take care of this."
After opening, the aroma becomes stronger.
One of them wanted to be busy from morning to night, while the other couldn't bear to eat.
Of course, this is just impulse.
He wants to make money from selling it or taste it.
...
This made Linzhou feel relieved.
After a while, a middle-aged woman in plain clothes appeared at the entrance of the corridor outside him.
The cap is complete and has a perfect appearance.
As my mother gets older, the white hair on her temples indicates that she can no longer work day and night.
When he came to the three fields where water spinach was planted, he found that the seeds in the soil had already sprouted. The green, representing vitality, was dotted among the brown soil, giving people a warm feeling of hope.
"I'll check the water spinach harvest tonight and sell it tomorrow morning."
However, before that, he ran to the farm dog and checked the task log again, only to find that there was no update, and then he exited.
"Xiaozhou." Alice Qin nodded and rolled up her sleeves: "What are you washing? Let mom wash it. I bought you some roast duck. It's still hot. Go down and try it."
Sure enough, just as he got started, he heard the voice of his mother greeting the residents downstairs in the corridor.
But he also understood that food should be eaten one bite at a time and some things cannot be rushed.
It turned out that while picking chicken mushrooms just now, his whole body was covered with a lot of mud.
Linzhou collected his thoughts, his eyes suddenly fell on himself, and he laughed in surprise.
After washing the clothes, Linzhou took some time to go to the farm to check on the water spinach and found that it was growing well and was almost ten centimeters tall.
Still hot, as her mother had said.
He picked up some of the chicken mushrooms on the top and put them aside, then checked the chicken mushrooms underneath that were pressed. However, he was surprised to find that the chicken mushrooms underneath had no signs of being pressed at all.
In fact, when they grow fast, they can't even eat enough.
After all, he only needs to sell the crops in the farm space to make money, and with money he can improve the lives of this family.
Scarcity makes things valuable, so the price will probably increase four to five times compared to that time.
Linzhou estimated that his mother should be back soon, so after cooking, he took out four or five slightly larger chicken mushrooms from the space, washed them, and prepared to make some mushroom soup in the evening to taste.
But soon, his regretful feeling disappeared.
Originally, he planned to use his free time before returning to school to get his diploma to look for a job and learn about job opportunities in his field in the neighboring city.
In terms of size, color and aroma alone, it is definitely of the best quality.
The water spinach here in the neighboring city is mostly grown in paddy fields. When the seedlings grow to a certain size, they do not continue to grow upright, but hang down and extend to the surrounding areas.
In the last second before being teleported out, he looked at the chicken mushrooms that had not been picked yet and the unexplored areas of the forest, his eyes full of reluctance.
"At this rate, we should be able to harvest tonight."
Basically, if you plant a small area of a field and it grows, it will be enough for the family to eat until the end of the season.
After all, if it gets crushed, all you lose is money.
Although water spinach is in the peak season, it is sold at a very low price, about 1 yuan per pound.
So, the next second, he suppressed the impulse in his heart and walked towards the farmland outside.
"I wonder how much we have dug this time?"
But it’s only April now, and the water spinach from the neighboring city has just come on the market.
At the same time, he couldn't help rubbing his hands and looked towards the warehouse with anticipation.
And, the length is also around 18cm.
When I came to the room downstairs, the roast duck in the pocket on the table was emitting a rich aroma.
When he came out of the space, it was already around six o'clock in the afternoon.
Linzhou had followed his mother to the old street before to sell vegetables at the stalls, so he had some experience in this regard.
"Mom, it's okay. I'll be done washing the chicken mushrooms soon!" Linzhou picked up the chicken mushrooms he had just washed and showed them to her.
Looking at his mother's skillful movements, Linzhou was helpless.
Linzhou was so busy digging that he had no time to count them, so he had no idea how much he had picked up.
To harvest, pinch off the tender parts with your fingers, leaving the roots and allowing it to continue growing.
"But I should taste it before selling it so I can get a better price."
After returning to the farm, Linzhou still felt a little regretful.
There’s absolutely no problem in achieving water spinach freedom.
Now, with the emergence of farm space, his first plan needs to be changed.
"call---"
However, the second one is easier to achieve.
But looking at the lush green leaves, I feel a sense of accomplishment.
From clearing the land to sowing, from sowing to germination, and now to the opening of leaves, the feeling of nurturing is really great!
"Then you are really lucky." Alice Qin didn't think much about it.
Back in the room, Linzhou washed the dirt off his hands and face and changed into a new set of clothes.
As his eyes were fixed on the pile of wild black-skinned chicken mushrooms in the empty warehouse, his answer was finally revealed.
"It's such a big pile, I'm afraid it can fill up a small backpack!"
"Chicken mushroom? This is chicken mushroom, three pile mushroom? Where did you pick it up?" Alice Qin didn't react at first when she heard him say the academic name, and only understood when she saw the real thing.
My sister is about to take the college entrance examination. She is under great study pressure and has heavy tasks. If she doesn’t get enough nutrition, her body will be dragged down.
My mother and sister are people who cannot be persuaded.
An hour passed in the blink of an eye.
Or rather, he himself.
"I don't know the price of wild chicken mushrooms in the neighboring city." Linzhou looked at the pile of chicken mushrooms in front of him. The smallest one had a stem as thick as an adult's thumb, while the largest ones were about the size of a baby's wrist.
Even so, he had no choice but to be forced to leave.
Then exit the space and clean up.
In addition, a shallow layer of water is stored in the farmland to suit the growth of water spinach.
Although Linzhou is not sure yet whether the same will be true for the water spinach grown in the farm space.
For a moment, Linzhou couldn't help but be full of expectations.
"I brought it back from school. My roommate and I found it on the hill behind the school." Linzhou lied.
Linzhou walked quickly to the mushroom pile. The fragrance emanating from the mushrooms was so strong that he even wanted to make a pot of mushroom soup immediately.
Another thing is to take care of my mother and sister.
Linzhou was quite interested when he thought of this.
Because it was a cloudy day, the outside looked grey and almost dark.
The roast duck here is first cut into pieces, fried once, mixed with seasonings and sprinkled with sesame seeds. It is very fragrant!
If you eat it hot, it’s no exaggeration to say that it’s crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
Linzhou picked up the two duck legs and returned to the corner of the corridor.
"Mom, come and eat duck legs!"
