Chapter 86 It’s too early for the old man to be relieved!
The old man couldn't help laughing, lighting his son with his pipe, "You're being clever, not saying what you want to say. You have to take advantage of our Zhuzhu because she's young and easy to fool, right?"
Tai Jiye scratched the back of his head awkwardly, just like Tai Jizon did just now. They were indeed brothers!
"Hey, Dad, I was thinking about the ravine where we dug the garlic cloves. I guess other wild vegetables have grown there too. Manager Min has been taking good care of me, so I wanted to take some wild vegetables with me for a walk.
If there is any new business or job, our family can still make some money!"
The old man nodded and instructed, "They've taken care of us, so we should repay them to the best of our ability. If you want to give them wild vegetables, go ahead, but don't expect them to find you another job, okay? Friendships can only last long if they're not motivated by personal gain!"
"Yes, Dad, I understand, I understand!" Tai Jiye was so happy that he kept responding and was about to go to the mountain.
But Zhuzhu was more anxious than him, and she jumped around hugging her grandfather's neck!
"Grandpa, Zhuzhu wants to go up the mountain too! It's comfortable and fun up there!"
The old man was almost knocked down by the fat girl and quickly responded, "Okay, let's go, let's go together!"
Yang Lihua happened to come over and glared at her daughter when she saw this. "We're busy at home, why are you asking your grandfather to go up the mountain?"
Zhuzhu shrank her neck and hid obediently in her grandfather's arms, smiling ingratiatingly.
The old man pinched his chubby granddaughter's double chin with a doting look on his face. Finally, he pleaded with his daughter-in-law, "My eldest daughter-in-law, the third son and I will take Zhuzhu to dig wild vegetables. We will be back soon. If we are lucky, we can catch a rabbit or a pheasant, and we can have another dish for the family!"
This reminded Zhuzhu, and the fat girl immediately turned into a greedy pig, clapping her hands and shouting, "Eat meat, Zhuzhu wants to eat meat!"
The old man was quick to cover his granddaughter's mouth.
Yang Lihua also quickly looked towards the door...
Fortunately, after waiting for a while, no one in robes or the like came to the door to "seek death"!
Everyone, young and old, breathed a sigh of relief and went up the mountain after making some simple preparations.
Tai Yonglu and Tai Yongyue found out about it, and needless to say, they also joined in the fun and became followers!
As a result, not long after entering the forest, the old man found that it was too early for him to be relieved.
Tai Jiye saw the big gray rabbits, one after another, running to the big tree next to them and banging their heads like they were in a race. He was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth!
"This, this... Dad!"
Grandpa Tai sighed, patted his granddaughter on the back who was jumping up and down with joy, and then instructed his two grandsons, "Put the rabbit in the basket, and remember to keep your mouth shut when you get home!"
The two boys nodded frantically, their mouths as tight as clams.
As long as they have meat to eat, they don’t care where the meat comes from!
Tai Jiye was stunned and his father slapped him on the back. "Don't be silly. We've had roe deer delivered to our door before. This rabbit is nothing. Go look around and see if there are any rabbits. Catch a few for Zhuzhu to play with."
"Besides, the Min family also has a little girl. Give a pair to Steward Min so that he can gain respect in front of the master."
"Hey, hey! Got it, Dad, I'll go catch him right away!"
After receiving the instructions, Tai Jiye immediately went to search the rabbit holes nearby as if he had been injected with chicken blood.
What's more, he actually found a litter of four little rabbits, some white and some black. They were only as big as a child's palm, covered with fur and very cute.
Zhuzhu held one in each hand, smiling happily.
Soon, all the rabbits, big and small, were put into the basket, and the young and old set off again.
When we arrived at the valley where we had dug small roots of garlic before, we found that this place was indeed blessed with unique natural conditions. It was warmed by the sun and moistened by the snow water. Wild vegetables had already emerged from the ground, stretching out their green arms to show off.
Zhuzhu was the first to run over, spinning around on the ground like a happy elf.
Tai Jiye was very happy to see this. He called his nephew to help dig wild vegetables while giving instructions to his little niece.
"When Uncle San has time in the future, I will always bring you here to play!"
Zhuzhu nodded vigorously, her little cheeks trembling, "Uncle San is the best, Zhuzhu likes Uncle San the most!"
The old man coughed twice and sighed, "Zhuzhu doesn't like grandpa anymore, grandpa is sad!"
"Grandpa is the best, Zhuzhu likes Grandpa too!" The fat girl immediately changed her attitude and hugged Grandpa's thigh instead.
Everyone laughed and teased the fat girl while busy picking wild vegetables.
Green represents vitality and hope.
Even if there is no harvest, being in the green fields is still refreshing.
The five members of the family, young and old, were busy for most of the hour and returned home with a full load, picking a large basket of fresh wild vegetables and a basket of rabbits of all sizes.
Zhuzhu was reluctant to leave and didn't want to go home.
In the end, the old man promised to bring her back in two days, and only then did he carry the fat girl away.
At the foot of the mountain, the Tai family yard was also bustling with activity.
In just a few days, the east and west wing rooms have been demolished and rebuilt to half a person's height.
It is estimated that in five or six days, the wing rooms will be completed and the Tai family, young and old, will move in, and then we can officially start building the main house and the second courtyard at the back.
As the sun set, the villagers slowly stopped their work, prepared to rest, and waited for dinner.
This is also everyone’s favorite moment. Young and old get together and chat, which is the most relaxing and lively time.
At this moment, Grandpa Tai and his children and grandchildren entered the courtyard. Tai Yonglu and Tai Yongyue ran ahead to clear the way, shouting, "We caught rabbits, lots of rabbits!"
