Traveling through the famine, I stockpiled supplies like crazy

Chapter 329 Bamboo Shoots and Bamboo Fungus

"Haha, work hard. This year's harvest depends entirely on you." The Taoist priest encouraged.

"Don't worry about this. I will definitely take it to heart." Xu Han said with a smile.

How can you not take care of your own crops? Whether you can grow crops safely in the future depends entirely on these fertilizers.

"The sun is out. Let's turn over these piles of manure first."

"Okay, these fertilizer piles look pretty good at the moment, so it should be successful. Why don't we compost the remaining manure sometime?

This amount of manure looks like a lot, but we have more land at home, and I’m afraid it won’t be enough.” Lu Chuan asked.

"I originally thought that I would do the rest after the compost is made. But it is okay to compost in advance. The land doesn't look particularly fertile now. It is better to add more manure, otherwise the crops will not grow well."

"Then let's find some time to ferment the remaining compost. Anyway, the unused compost won't go bad, so it's the same if we store it here."

"Well, let's finish planting the sweet potatoes first." After Xu Han said that, he began to turn the fertilizer pile, and the Taoist priest followed suit.

After turning over the manure pile, the three of them went back together. When they got home, Grandpa Zhao had just served out breakfast.

After finishing breakfast, they dispersed and went about their own business.

"This time I feel like there are more bamboo shoots than the last time I came here," said Lu Chuan.

"Yes, there are too many of them. The rain came in time this year, and there is enough water in the ground, so the bamboo shoots grow well naturally." Xu Han bent down and picked up the bamboo fungus beside him and said.

"Why don't you pick some bamboo fungus first? There seem to be a lot of them here."

"Okay, then you dig the bamboo shoots first, and then put them together. I'll come to you later."

After Xu Han finished speaking, she took out two large backpacks from the space and handed them to Lu Chuan, then she took a small basket and went to pick bamboo fungi.

Now is the season for bamboo fungus to grow, and it just rained two days ago, so there are many bamboo fungi blooming in the bamboo forest.

After walking a short distance, Xu Han's small bamboo basket was filled with bamboo fungi. Seeing this, Xu Han hurriedly poured the bamboo fungi in the basket into the backpack, and then continued to look for bamboo fungi.

Grandpa Zhao and Mu'er at home both like this bamboo fungus. Since they can pick it up, they will definitely pick more and dry it to eat slowly.

Next time Yunhua and Yunyun come, I can bring some back to them.

In the past, I always brought prepared food, but never brought anything else.

First, he was afraid that there would not be enough food at home, and second, he was afraid that they would suspect something. After all, the house was so small, and they must have a rough idea of ​​how much food could be put in it. If there were too many supplies, people would inevitably think too much.

But now it’s different. The natural disaster has passed, and there are edible things in the mountains, so Xu Han has an excuse to get mountain products for them.

As Xu Han was lost in thought and immersed in picking bamboo fungi, she unknowingly walked further and further away.

By the time he reacted, Lu Chuan was nowhere to be seen, because he had kept his head down while picking up the bamboo fungus. He just walked wherever he saw the bamboo fungus and didn't pay attention to the route.

Now when Xu Han raised her head, she had no idea where she was.

I couldn't help but feel a little nervous for some reason, but when I lowered my head, I saw the black spot following closely behind me, and I instantly felt relieved.

Fortunately, I brought my dogs with me when I went out, otherwise it would have been troublesome if I got lost in the bamboo forest.

"Heidian, I can't find the way. Please take me out." Xu Han touched Heidian's head and said.

"Woof woof." Black Spot barked twice and started walking out.

Seeing this, Xu Han hurriedly followed. The man and the dog walked in twists and turns for a long time before they reached the outskirts of the bamboo forest.

When Lu Chuan saw Xu Han coming back, he couldn't help but frown and said, "Where have you been? I just called you for a long time but didn't hear your voice. I was just about to go in to look for you."

"When I was picking bamboo fungi just now, I accidentally went a little deeper inside and couldn't find my way back. If it weren't for the black spot, I definitely wouldn't have been able to find it back." Xu Han said to Lu Chuan in a flattering manner.

Obviously he has realized his mistake. He really went a little too deep without paying attention. If it weren't for the black spot, he would be in trouble today.

"Don't go so deep next time. Just pick up some on the side. If you want to go inside to pick up some, call me to go with you." Lu Chuan said sternly.

"Okay, okay, I won't go too deep next time." Xu Han promised quickly.

Even though Lu Chuan usually looks like he is obsessed with his wife, he can be very fierce when he gets really angry.

Especially when Lu Chuan frowned, it was even more frightening. When Lu Chuan was angry, it was hard to talk to him at all, which was completely different from usual. Xu Han was a little scared.

Seeing Xu Han like this, Lu Chuan didn't know what to say, but he just refused to let Xu Han continue picking bamboo fungi alone.

Xu Han had no choice but to follow Lu Chuan to dig bamboo shoots. Fortunately, the soil was very soft after the rain, so Xu Han didn't have to dig with much effort.

"Take a break and continue digging after lunch." Xu Han took out a cup of warm water from the space and handed it to Lu Chuan.

"Find a place to sit for a while and get your lunch out. I'll dig up the ones next to you and then I'll go over."

"Okay, what do you want for lunch? I'll get it out for you."

"Just take whatever you like. I'm not picky about food. As long as I can eat it, it's fine." Lu Chuan said nonchalantly.

After being influenced by Xu Han, Lu Chuan still has some requirements for food, but this is only limited to comparing with other meals outside.

Lu Chuan is not very picky about the food Xu Han cooks. He usually eats whatever Xu Han cooks.

Especially when there is work to be done at home, they don’t care about what to eat. As long as there is food to eat, they are very easy to feed.

Upon hearing this, Xu Han took out some of the food that Lu Chuan usually liked to eat, and also took out some fruits.

When Lu Chuan came over, Xu Han filled the washbasin with water. After they washed their hands, they started to eat lunch.

"We dug up quite a lot this morning, faster than before."

"The bamboo shoots have grown a lot this year, and they are quite big, so they are easier to dig. It doesn't take much effort to dig a lot of bamboo shoots around here, so naturally we dig more than before," Lu Chuan explained.

"We have been eating these big bamboo shoots in recent years. I remember you said before that there is a bamboo forest of small bamboo shoots in the mountains. When we have time, let's go and pick some small bamboo shoots. Small bamboo shoots taste better than big ones." Xu Han suggested.
