Chapter 33032. Let’s hurry up and have a baby
Lei Li deftly peeled off a strip of bark.
Tie up the rice bugs wrapped in leaves to prevent them from crawling out, and then hang them around your waist, because if you put them in a backpack, they may be crushed to death by the heavy medicinal herbs.
"Keep an eye out. If you see sawdust on a cassia tree, it means there are insects. Make a plate of it and stir-fry it for Dad."
"I see."
Zhou Yi nodded.
Following Lei Li further and further in, through a dense patch of bushes, what caught my eye was a string of elm-yellow mushrooms, with bright golden umbrellas and milky white stems, in clusters and clumps, beautiful and tempting.
Elm yellow mushroom.
The scientific name is Pleurotus ostreatus. They grow on several rotten and fallen trees. The rotten wood layer decomposes nutrients, causing mosses to grow on the dead trees.
Zhou Yi stopped immediately.
Lei Li called out a few times, but when he didn't catch up, she turned around to see his expression, understanding and speechless. "...What are you eyeing now?"
Zhou Yi looked at Lei Li and said seriously, "When you see all these mushrooms, don't you have the urge to take them home and eat them?"
"These?"
Lei Li pointed at the golden-crowned pleurotus and said, "Don't they say that the more beautiful the mushrooms, the more poisonous they are? Are you sure they are edible, and not that they eat people?"
"You can say I'm not good enough, but you can't doubt my professionalism."
Zhou Yi went up the mountain with his grandfather to collect herbs and mushrooms since he was a child. He was a good cook at home. Later, he joined the army and worked in the kitchen.
Although he worked as an instructor for a period of time, his greatest passion was still cooking.
——Although his grandfather taught him how to cook by saying that if you marry a wife, you must capture her stomach, Lei Li didn't care at all whether he could cook or not.
Lei Li just wanted to do it.
Lei Li glanced at Zhou Yi and said in disbelief, "Go ahead if you want to pick them. Remember to tell me when you're about to die of poison. Let's hurry up and have a baby."
“???”
Zhou Yi was shocked and silent.
Put the medicinal roots and branches in the two backpacks into one, and leave an empty one for the elm yellow mushrooms.
After carefully and quickly picking the fruits from one dead tree, Zhou Yi was about to pick the fruits from the second dead tree when he suddenly heard a strange rustling sound.
"Leili, did you hear anything?"
"Maybe it's a pheasant."
Lei Li had just discovered a wild Ganoderma lucidum and was busy looking for more nearby, so he didn't pay much attention to his surroundings.
"wrong."
Zhou Yi stood up alertly, looking around and listening carefully. The rustling sound seemed to be coming towards them, and it was quite loud.
"I didn't think a pheasant would make such a big noise. Didn't you say there were tigers and bears in these mountains?"
"I didn't know the village elders had seen it a few years ago. I've been to the mountains so many times and I've never even seen a bear's footprints. How could it be such a coincidence?"
Lei Li didn't take it seriously, but he also became alert. He put the Ganoderma lucidum in his hand, clapped his hands, and prepared to climb a tree to look from a high vantage point.
“Chihu——”
“Hehe——”
Zhou Yi and Lei Li looked at each other.
They all knew that the other party had heard the strange sound.
Zhou Yi didn't recognize it, but felt that it sounded strange yet familiar. Just as he was thinking about it, he heard Lei Li conclude -
"It should be a wild boar."
Lei Li pulled Zhou Yi along as he loaded the backpack and said, "I've been killing pigs for three years. That's how pigs make sounds. Wild boars are also pigs, and their sounds are pretty much the same."
"Blind Bear and the Beast certainly didn't yell like that, and I've never heard of wolves in Sanli Mountain."
"You have a point."
Zhou Yi had already put on his backpack. He looked at the patch of elm yellow mushrooms with some regret, then quickly followed Lei Li and left.
Many people have never seen a wild boar and don't know how terrifying it is. When standing up, it is as tall as an adult man and can weigh up to 400 kilograms. It has exposed and upturned fangs, and it can injure a person half to death when it rushes towards him.
Most importantly—
Wild boars mostly live in groups. A group consists of 6-20 individuals, and even a small group consists of 4-10 individuals. When food is abundant, several small groups will form a large group to forage together.
So when the wild boars ate sweet potatoes that year, the village chief organized people to hunt them, but few people responded.
Zhou Yi and Lei Li ran a long way. During the run, they crushed a few handfuls of mugwort and hung them around their waists to disrupt the wild boar's sense of smell. They did not dare to run towards the Sanli River.
Because wild boars may go to the river to drink water, and there are other unknown animals.
"It should be fine here."
Lei Li looked around and saw lush greenery everywhere. "But I haven't been here in a long time. The grass grows so fast, I don't remember the way very well."
"I remember the way."
Zhou Yi said, "When we were running just now, I marked several trees with a cross symbol. If we can't go this way, we can return the same way. The wild boar should not be there anymore."
"become."
Lei Li nodded. "There shouldn't be many people walking here. There's no road. Maybe there's something priceless here. Let's see if there's any Ganoderma lucidum on the ground."
"I don't know if there's any Ganoderma..."
Zhou Yi stared at the saprophytic layer on the ground. There were flowers and mushrooms, bright red umbrellas, and red stems in white. If they weren't red mushrooms, what else could they be?
"I think even without the Ganoderma, these red mushrooms still have their charm and are still in their prime. Not many of them are old. I can pick some to make egg soup."
"no."
Lei Li rolled his eyes at him and said, "You're just a spendthrift. You're always thinking about my money and eggs. Before you were here, my mother could save seven or eight eggs a day. Now that you're here, she cooks seven or eight eggs a day."
"...I'm not the only one eating it. Dad, Mom, and you are eating it too."
"It's because you eat too much that I won't cook for you."
Lei Li frowned angrily, "You use a lot of oil, too. A pound of pork fat costs 10 coins. It takes more than ten pounds of fat to fry a pot of oil. This will last a year."
"You also like to use soy sauce. It costs 8 wen per pound. If you pour it into making pickled bamboo shoots, dozens of wen will be gone. Pickled five-color peppers will cost dozens more."
"Damn loser."
Zhou Yi was so shocked that he didn't dare to say a word.
Lei Li stopped talking after a few words, waved her hand in disdain and said, "Pick them if you want, but be careful not to pick the poisonous ones. If you're poisoned to death, where will I find another husband to play with?"
"……OK."
Zhou Yi was timid in front of her husband.
Zhou Yi attacked Red Mushroom with a heavy punch.
Pulled it out.
All of them were plucked out.
After picking half a basket of elm yellow mushrooms, Zhou Yi stopped and followed Lei Li to look for medicinal herbs. Luckily, there were a few Codonopsis pilosula nearby.
Codonopsis pilosula, also known as golden leopard, has heart-shaped leaves at the bottom and serrated edges. In August and September, you can also see its dark purple fruits that look like small lanterns.
The fruit is edible and sweet.
"Some landowners think the name 'Golden Leopard' is auspicious and can bring wealth and treasure, so they plant a few in their yards to admire its flowers and fruits."
Lei Li often sent medicinal herbs to Doctor Cao, and Doctor Cao often visited the landlords' homes, so he knew these things and would talk to Lei Li about them during their conversations.
"But they planted it specially. How can it grow better in the mountains? It's free and happy. I can dig it up and exchange it for money. It will become a real leopard."
Lei Li put the dug wild codonopsis away and noted the location. Although wild codonopsis is a vine, it can't run far. If the seeds fall to the ground, they will sprout and grow sooner or later.
So there must be some nearby.
really.
Lei Li found several more trees and said as he dug, "Leopard trees can help increase lactation. When Zhu Zhuer has a baby, I'll cook some chicken for her to help with her lactation."
"To Zhu Zhu'er?"
Zhou Yi was surprised at first, but soon realized that modern men also have mammary glands, which generally do not secrete milk unless they have breast hyperplasia or breast cancer.
Women secrete milk because after giving birth, the amount of prolactin secreted in the body increases, which promotes milk production. Since the boys here can give birth, it is not surprising that they produce milk under the action of hormones.
Same thing.
Codonopsis pilosula can promote lactation in women, and should have the same effect on men, just like the red mushrooms here can be eaten when ripe like modern ones.
In that case...
Zhou Yi subconsciously glanced at Lei Li's chest. He remembered that Lei Li's was quite big. Was it also prepared for giving birth?
When I thought of it, I asked, "Are all your guys' breasts as big as yours? But I remember your chest muscles get hard when you push hard."
It should be acquired through training, right?
“…”
Lei Li's ears suddenly felt hot.
After staring at Zhou Yi for three seconds, she asked him, "Do you like big or small, hard or soft?"
“……?”
I don't know why.
Zhou Yi felt that Lei Li was driving the car, but he had no evidence. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Of course, it depends on your own preferences. I think both are fine."
Nowadays, many men like to train their pectoral muscles and biceps to make them look strong and powerful.
Zhou Yi respects other people's wishes, but he himself does not pursue them too much. He thinks it is best to exercise naturally and stay healthy, and there is no need to force a body shape.
"It will be all right?"
Lei Li seemed to be lost in thought. Suddenly, she grabbed his hand and put it on her chest. "Now feel it. Do you like it big or small? Soft or hard?"
"ah?"
Zhou Yi was startled.
He quickly reacted and tried to pull his hand back, but Lei Li was very strong and held his hand tightly, pressing hard on that spot while asking:
"Tell me, which one do you like?"
“…”
Zhou Yi was completely stiff, especially his hand. He felt awkward as if he had nowhere to hide but still wanted to dig into the castle. His ears were completely red.
"Speak."
Lei Li stared at him with interest, pressed his hands, and suddenly put his face close to him, scaring Zhou Yi so much that he fell backwards. Then he let go and laughed.
"Husband, you are so funny."
“…”
As long as you are happy.
Zhou Yi stood up silently, patted the mud off his butt, and wanted to continue digging those wild Codonopsis pilosula with Lei Li, when he suddenly heard some strange noises again.
