Chapter 34 Autumn Harvest (Part 3)

When Gu Ranzhou walked to the door of his house and opened it, he saw that the two children had woken up long ago and were sitting at the dining table, each with a bowl of porridge eating breakfast. It should be that the two children served themselves.

Gu Yuan was surprised to see his father coming back and shouted, "Dad."

Lu Haoyu: "Uncle."

Gu Ranzhou was a little surprised that the two children woke up so quickly: "Woke up so soon?"

The two children took a sip of porridge and responded, "Hmm."

Gu Ranzhou quickly walked into the kitchen and came out with pickled cucumbers and boiled eggs, then put them on the table. Gu Ranzhou also sat on the stool and picked up the boiled eggs to peel them.

Lu Haoyu felt a little strange and asked, "Uncle, why did you come back so early today?"

It’s not that Lu Haoyu thought so. It was mainly because when he got up in the morning, he couldn’t see his uncle, but only saw his younger uncle. So he knew that his uncle usually didn’t get up early in the morning, and it was his younger uncle who made breakfast. Why was he so early this time?

Gu Yu'an glanced at his brother and also felt it was strange. His father had never gotten up at this time before, and it was always his eldest father who took care of them.

"Today is the autumn harvest time. Your uncle and Uncle Lin have gone to work to earn work points." Gu Ranzhou answered briefly, then handed over the peeled boiled egg in his hand and then peeled another one.

"Thank you, uncle." Lu Haoyu took the peeled boiled egg, broke it in half and gave half to An An: "This is for my younger brother."

"Thank you, brother." Gu Yu'an took it immediately, took a bite and drank the whole bowl of porridge.

After the two children finished eating, Gu Ranzhou asked, "Did you sleep well last night?"

"good."

Lu Haoyu and Gu Yu'an said in unison.

Gu Ranzhou nodded, then smiled and said, "What do you want to do today?"

"I don't know. Xiaopang and the others said yesterday that they had to work today, so they didn't come to play with us." Gu Yu'an shook his head and said.

Lu Haoyu asked, "Uncle, is there anything I can do for you?"

Gu Ranzhou was stunned. He felt that the two children were still young. Although the children in the village were about the same age as them and could already do some work within their ability, Gu Ranzhou didn't want to let them work: "You are still young and can't do it yet."

But when Gu Ranzhou saw the two children's shining eyes, he turned and said, "If you really have nothing to do, why don't you go get a broom and sweep the yard?"

"Okay." The two children nodded in unison.

Gu Ranzhou touched the two children's heads with a smile, then stood up and picked up the dishes.

Gu Ranzhou was not idle either. After taking the dishes back to the kitchen, he immediately entered the space and walked towards the orchard with a basket. Gu Ranzhou looked at the orchard and couldn't help feeling a little emotional. He had only planted a small amount before, but later the scale became larger and larger, and the variety of fruits became more and more, and slowly it became an orchard.

Gu Ranzhou picked a lot of different kinds of fruits and put them in the basket. When he saw that they were almost ripe, he stopped picking. Although the fruits and vegetables grown in this space would not rot, it was not a good idea to leave them hanging on the trees without picking them. The old ones would not go away and the new ones would not come. Gu Ranzhou thought that after the autumn harvest, he would have to harvest all the fruits and vegetables in the space, as long as they were grown.

As Gu Ranzhou walked, he picked up a tomato from the basket, wiped it with the corner of his clothes and took a bite. It was sweet and refreshing.

Gu Ranzhou then returned to the kitchen of the villa to get the materials he needed and left the space.

As soon as Gu Ranzhou walked out of the space, a wave of heat came. As expected, it was spring all year round in the space, unlike the extremely hot outside.

Gu Ranzhou lit the fire on the stove, boiled 1000ml of water in the rice cooker, added two packets of white jelly and boiled, poured it into a stainless steel basin and let it cool, then boiled sugar water, poured it into a stainless steel basin and let it cool for later use, then cut the ice jelly into small pieces, then poured in the boiled and cooled sugar water, cut the prepared fruits into small pieces and added them to the sugar water, and stirred them evenly.

After Gu Ranzhou finished all this, he took out a basin of ice from the space, and then took out two thermoses and two small kettles placed aside.

Gu Ranzhou had bought that thermos at the market in town before. He hadn't used it because of the hot weather, but its heat preservation function was still very good, and it was perfect for storing sugar water.

He put the ice cubes into the thermos one by one. Fortunately, when Gu Ranzhou put the ice cubes into the small kettle, the ice cube mold was not frozen that big, so it could fit in. Then he added the prepared syrup into it.

Gu Ranzhou took the stopper of the thermos and put it in place. Then he took out a bowl and poured himself a bowl. Gu Ranzhou picked up the bowl and took a sip. Oh, it was so sweet.

Gu Ranzhou looked at the time and found that it was okay. He could make lunch after he got the basket back.

After washing his hands, Gu Ranzhou picked up a thermos and left the kitchen.

Gu Yu'an and Lu Haoyu were sweeping the floor when they saw Gu Ranzhou about to go out and asked, "Dad, where are you going?"

Gu Ranzhou said to them, "Xiaoyu, An'an, you two stay home obediently. I'm going out to do something and will be back soon."

"Oh! Dad, go quickly."

"Um."

Before walking to the door, Gu Ranzhou looked back at the two babies who were sweeping the yard with a small broom. A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He gently closed the door and walked out.

Generally speaking, the gate should not be closed, but Gu Ranzhou lives close to the back mountain, so it must be kept under control at least during the day. Who knows if something will run out of the back mountain?

Gu Ranzhou walked straight to the cowshed. At that time, several old men had finished breakfast and washed the dishes, put them in a basket, and placed them on the table.

Several people saw Gu Ranzhou and greeted him: "Xiaozhou, are you here?"

Gu Ranzhou smiled and greeted: "Well, have you finished breakfast?"

"We've finished eating." Mr. Xu said happily.

"Yeah." Gu Ranzhou put down the thermos, but did not sit down.

"Xiao Zhou, what is this...?"

Gu Ranzhou smiled and said, "This thermos contains the sweet soup I just made. It's hot today, so it can keep warm. I brought it here especially for you to taste."

"Oh, Xiaozhou, you are so polite. How can we let you spend money?" said several old men.

Gu Ranzhou: "Haha, I just took it casually. You just finished your meal, there's no rush to drink. This thermos is warm, you can drink it when you want." Then he picked up the basket and said, "Dear grandfathers, there are children at home, I will go back first."

"good."

After Gu Ranzhou left, Old Man Lin said, "Xiaozhou, you have great abilities. It's a pity that you don't go out."

Mr. Zheng sighed, "He's really quite capable. His medical skills alone are incredible."

"Aren't we clear about the current situation?"

"We can see that Xiao Zhou just wants to live his life peacefully. He doesn't think about anything else. Otherwise, with his strength, he could definitely make a name for himself."
