Chapter 536: Lure the snake out of its hole (5)
"Take me with you when you dig yams next year." When Monkey heard Lu Xiaoxiao say that yams can be stored for a long time, he immediately said to Lu Xiaoxiao with shining eyes.
"Don't you have food and lodging provided by the organization? Why are you digging yams?" Lu Xiaoxiao asked the monkey.
"I want to dig it up, dry it, and send it back home."
"If you're still here next fall I'll take you digging."
"Really?" Monkey asked Lu Xiaoxiao with a look of surprise.
"real."
"Lu Xiaoxiao, thank you on behalf of my whole family." Monkey said after getting Lu Xiaoxiao's affirmative answer.
"Haha...you're welcome." Lu Xiaoxiao said with a smile when she heard what Monkey said.
On the way down the mountain, Lu Xiaoxiao chatted with Monkey and Mu Tou. It felt like they were home in no time. Lu Xiaoxiao opened the door to the yard and said to Monkey and Mu Tou, "Go to the foot of the mountain and get some vines to tie up the yams. We forgot to pick them when we were going down the mountain just now."
"Okay, we'll be back soon." Mu Tou nodded at Lu Xiaoxiao and said.
After Monkey and Wood left, Lu Xiaoxiao immediately closed the door of the yard and returned to the main room. Then she took out two bags of yam and ten kilograms of millet from the space. She thought these should be enough for them to eat tonight.
"Lu Xiaoxiao, we have cut back the vines." The monkey shouted while knocking on the gate.
After hearing what Monkey said, Lu Xiaoxiao immediately walked to the gate of the courtyard and opened it, then said to Monkey and the head girl, "The yams are in the bag in the main room. Now you can tie the yams with vines, and then we will go back to the mountain."
"Okay." Monkey and Wood said in unison.
An hour later, Lu Xiaoxiao, Monkey and Wood returned to the cave. When she saw Zhang Xu walking towards her, she said, "Hurry up and ask the person who usually cooks to come and make porridge."
"They are all absorbing the medicinal power of the Soul Gathering Pill, so I will cook porridge tonight." Zhang Xu said after hearing the little girl's words.
"I'll help you, otherwise you can't handle it alone."
"good."
"Boss, we're here to help you too." Monkey and Wood said after hearing the conversation between Zhang Xu and Lu Xiaoxiao.
"Um."
"Monkey, you and Mu Tou should wear these gloves." Lu Xiaoxiao took out two pairs of gloves from her bag and handed them to Monkey, then spoke.
"We have thick skin and strong flesh, so we don't need to wear gloves." Monkey said after looking at the gloves Lu Xiaoxiao handed him.
"I asked you to wear gloves not because I'm afraid you'll hurt your hands, but because there's a liquid in the skin of the yam that will make you unbearably itchy when it comes into contact with the skin." Lu Xiaoxiao explained to the monkey.
When Monkey heard what Lu Xiaoxiao said, he immediately reached out and took the gloves from Lu Xiaoxiao's hand, and then quickly put them on his hand.
After seeing Monkey's actions, Lu Xiaoxiao said to him with a teasing look on her face: "Aren't you thick-skinned? Why are you wearing gloves?"
"I... I'm most afraid of being tickled." The monkey said this with a red face and ran to the cave entrance to peel yam.
"Hehe..." Lu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but laugh when she saw the monkey's face turn red because of her words.
Zhang Xu smiled helplessly when he saw the little girl's mischievous look, and then said, "Stop teasing them, come and help me light the fire."
"good."
An hour later, Lu Xiaoxiao wiped the sweat from her forehead and said to Zhang Xu, "Cooking for more than 200 people is much more tiring than practicing."
