Chapter 289 Zhang Yuling's First Outing
The most ruthless thing in the world is time. Even nine oxen cannot delay it for even a single second. This year's autumn is like this, it comes without any mercy. Even if Summer tried to scare it with lightning and thunder, or if violent storms tried to wash it away, it would not be swayed by their willpower and would come hurriedly.
Early autumn is the time for rice harvest. In some places, the harvest is already started in late summer, but in Beishan Village, the harvest only starts in September every year.
Li Haoran was going out of the mountain to help harvest the rice, and he was also learning with time, and he was also ruthless in taking Yi Ke's mother Zhang Yuling out of the mountain.
No matter how much Yi Ke pleaded, he refused to change his mind. In his words, the autumn harvest outside the mountains is hot and tiring, and he still has to cook for himself when he gets home. He is not without a wife, so why should he put himself in such a difficult position?
Yi Ke complained to Ziyi tearfully: "Husband, you have to make the decision for me. Daddy is so mean. He took Mom away. Who will cook for us in the future?"
"Wife, don't we still have our godmother? She can cook too." Ziyi touched Yike's head with amusement and coaxed her.
"But godmother's cooking is not as delicious as mother's." Yike kept pestering Ziyi and insisted that Ziyi go and keep his mother Zhang Yuling.
Ziyi had no choice but to surrender and said, "Okay, okay, I'll cook from now on, okay? Just let mom go out. Mom has never gone out before, and the villagers still think dad doesn't have a wife. Aren't you afraid that dad will be entangled with other women?"
Yike knew it in his heart and felt a little uncomfortable, so he wanted to make trouble unreasonably. But after hearing what Ziyi said, he immediately changed his attitude.
Yike ran over and chatted with his mother Zhang Yuling for a long time, all about teaching his mother Zhang Yuling how to dress herself.
In Yi Ke's words, dress as beautifully as you can, and she even personally taught Zhang Yuling how to dress up. Zhang Yuling didn't have any ideas at first, but when Yike told her what Ziyi said, Zhang Yuling changed her mind immediately. She actively and seriously learned from Yike how to dress up, and promised Yike that she would never give Yike the chance to change his father.
When Li Haoran saw his wife's changed face, he almost forgot his original intention of leaving the mountains and just wanted to keep his wife in the mountains. Because he knew what the women out there looked like. His wife was prettier than those skinny and pale women out there. After she dressed up, those men would see how beautiful his wife was and they would stare at her all day long. Li Haoran wanted Zhang Yuling to stay in the mountains, but Zhang Yuling was unwilling. After being reminded by Yike, she developed a sense of crisis. Her man is so good, she really doesn't believe that those slutty girls out there don't have any intentions on her, so from now on she will follow her man, wherever he goes, she will go.
Li Haoran finally took Zhang Yuling out of the mountains to participate in the autumn harvest. The autumn harvest in the mountains is a little later than outside the mountains. By the time Li Haoran and Zhang Yuling come back, it should be almost done, so he went out with peace of mind.
"Mom, I will miss you when you leave." Yike hugged Zhang Yuling's arm and said reluctantly.
"Be good, mommy will be back soon." Zhang Yuling coaxed Yike.
"Mom, I can't bear to leave you. Why don't you just not go out? It's not fun outside at all."
"What are you talking about? I'm going out to cook for your father, not to play." Zhang Yuling was still immersed in the excitement of going out, so she had no idea what Yi Ke was thinking.
"Dad, you have to bring Mom back as soon as possible. The rice at home is waiting for you to come back and harvest it." Seeing that Zhang Yuling was determined to go out, he went to Li Haoran to persuade them to come back earlier.
"Don't worry, we will be back after harvesting the rice. Aren't we going to bring Ma Youcai and the others in? So I will definitely be back soon." Li Haoran gave Yi Ke a reassurance.
"Actually, if you ask me, Dad doesn't have to go out to harvest the rice." Yike muttered.
"Yes, Dad, you go out to help harvest the rice this year, and you won't have to go out at all next year. This time you go out and tell the team leader that you will not be going out most of the time in the future, and we will not share the grain in the production team. There will be more things to do in the mountains in the future, and we won't have time to go in and out." Ziyi also suggested.
"Is this really okay?" Li Haoran was a little hesitant.
"Why not? We don't share food."
…
Mother Zhang Yuling came out of retirement, and Wang Cuihua became the chef in the kitchen.
Wang Cuihua's cooking skills are not even close to Zhang Yuling's. She used to just cook the food and didn't know when to add the right seasonings. So the first meal she cooked was tasteless and it was a pity to throw it away.
From then on, Wang Cuihua was responsible for washing and cutting the dishes, while Ziyi was responsible for cooking. If Ziyi didn't have time, Yike would cook.
In order to avoid being lazy in the future, Yike taught his godmother Wang Cuihua how to cook very seriously.
In order to prepare a laboratory for Su Lao and Wu Feifei, Ziyi recently started to move the animals in the cave one after another, because the cave will be named a "laboratory" in the future.
Several more breeding facilities were added in the mountains, and several wooden houses were built below the paradise. These are places specifically for breeding newly hatched chicks and ducklings.
The Baicao Garden also moved, and the medicinal herbs and vegetables were separated. A large piece of land was chosen next to the pond outside the gate of Paradise to be used as a vegetable garden, and all the vegetables were planted there.
The medicinal herbs are in the small valley inside the paradise. All the fruit trees there have been moved out of the cave and moved into the orchard, and the medicinal herbs have made their home in the space left by the fruit trees.
The location of the pig pens has also been replanned. Now there are not just three or two pig pens, but more than twenty pig pens connected together. In addition to the pigpen, there is a large area enclosed for the pigs to move around.
The pigs live a happy life. They are no longer locked up in the pigsty every day, but are frolicking happily in the fenced woods.
The hills next to the pig farm are all planted with banana trees, and banana leaves are the after-meal snacks for the neighboring pigs. It is a tree that bears banana fruits. Once the banana fruits are picked, the tree will die. At this time, their neighbors the pigs opened their stomachs and silently absorbed them in. So, the greatest things here are these banana trees, they contribute their entire bodies to humans and pigs.
The forests that used to be home to cattle are now home to sheep. Ever since the cows were moved to the paradise and settled down, the sheep came here to enjoy themselves.
The sheep's residence is indeed unique. There is a large grassland on the east side of the mountain, and there is also grassland on the west side. But there are many big trees near the cliff. Under the big tree was the cowshed, which is now a sheep shed.
The sheep don’t have to go far to find grass to eat. The grass is more than enough for them. Who says they are thin animals? Just four or five pitiful ones.
