Traveling through the famine, I stockpiled supplies like crazy

Chapter 523: Picking Wild Fruits in the Mountains

After everything is cooled, transfer it to the cellar. The temperature in the cellar is low, which can better store these things.

Now all the food in the cellar has been stored in the space by Xu Han, so even if the servants go in, they won’t see things they shouldn’t see.

At present, apart from a small amount of grain in the cellar, there are some dried vegetables and mushrooms, as well as various kinds of wine and pickles in the warehouse.

These are things that can be used in daily life, so Xu Han put them out in the open so that everyone can take them easily.

However, at present, without the permission of the master, other people generally would not take the initiative to enter the warehouse and cellar. Xu Han would take out daily food and other things separately and give them to Dan Niang.

Everyone was busy all day and was exhausted. Tonight we still had dinner in the courtyard.

After dinner, even Xu Han and Lu Chuan did not go to the yard to enjoy the cool air.

The Mid-Autumn Festival has passed now, and the temperature in the mountains has gradually dropped. It is even cold when playing in the yard at night.

Everyone returned to their rooms early, washed up and prepared to go to bed.

After blowing out the lights, Xu Han suddenly remembered tomorrow's schedule and asked, "Have you told them that we're going into the mountains to pick wild fruits tomorrow? I forgot to remind you just now, and I didn't see you tell them, but don't forget it."

Lu Chuan pulled the quilt to cover Xu Han and said, "I told them, don't worry. I told them when they left just now to prepare the backpacks tonight and set off early tomorrow morning.

We will be divided into three teams, Han Qi will lead one team, the Taoist priest will lead one team, and I will lead one team. The three teams will go in different directions.

This can save time and gain more. ”

Xu Han nodded, but when she thought about the lights being blown out and Lu Chuan not being able to see, she said, "That's all. This arrangement is good."

"Well, go to bed early and leave early tomorrow. We won't come back for lunch."

"Okay, let's go to sleep." After saying that, Xu Han turned over and lay directly on Lu Chuan.

Lu Chuan's blood boiled for a moment because of Xu Han's posture, but when he thought that Xu Han had worked all day and had to get up early to go into the mountains tomorrow, he suppressed his desire and turned around to hug her tightly.

After a while, the sound of their even breathing could be heard, and they had a good night's sleep...

The next day, Dan Niang came over to make breakfast, and Mrs. Li made breakfast over there.

While making breakfast, prepare the dry food and water for lunch in advance so that you can take them directly when you leave.

After Xu Han got up, she started looking for the equipment that the family would need to go into the mountains. She prepared all the necessary things such as backpacks, sickles, hoes, etc. and placed them under the eaves so that she could pick them up when she left.

Because the main goal of today is to pick wild fruits in the mountains, the four children in the family cannot go and are all left at home to be taken care of by Mrs. Ma.

When Ze'er heard that everyone was going into the mountains to pick fruit today, he insisted on going too. Later, Xu Han patiently explained to him why they didn't take him with them, and then comforted him.

Ze'er finally agreed not to go into the mountains with us today, but he was obviously very depressed.

Xu Han tried her best to ignore the disappointment in her son's eyes and turned away from looking at him.

Finally, Grandpa Zhao doted on the two of them and promised, "When the weather is good in a few days, I will take you into the mountains to collect herbs."

Hearing this, the two little guys finally smiled, and Xu Han looked at them helplessly.

Forget it, collecting herbs is also a compulsory course for them. I won’t bother with such a small matter. Just let them do what they want.

At worst, we can let Han Qi go with us and keep an eye on the two of them.

After breakfast, without taking a rest, everyone rushed to meet at the small bridge.

Lu Chuan said, "Everyone look at each other to see who has not arrived yet."

Zhang Yi counted the heads over there and said, "Master, everyone here is here."

Lu Chuan glanced at his family and saw that everyone was changing lanes. "Today we will be divided into three teams to pick wild fruits in different directions. You can form teams freely later.

Remember to be as careful as possible when picking wild fruits, and safety is the priority.

Also, when you pick wild fruits, you must handle them gently and don’t use too much force. Wild fruits are delicate and will not last long if you use too much force.”

Xu Han also continued, "When you pick wild fruits, try not to separate too far. It's easy to get lost in the mountains. If you can't see anyone, call out immediately. It's best to mark the way along the way so that you don't get lost. Don't fall behind."

This was the first time for everyone to go into the mountains together. Many people had never been into the deep mountains before and did not understand the environment in the mountains. They had only been to nearby hills but had never been into deeper mountains.

Xu Han couldn't help but worry about them, so she couldn't help but say more.

Everyone responded, "Madam, don't worry. Han Qizui told us all about this yesterday. We all know what to do."

Upon hearing this, Xu Han glanced at Han Qi. She didn't expect that someone who spoke so little could be so thoughtful. She couldn't help but have an even better impression of him.

When Han Qi saw Xu Han looking at him, he was not flustered and still had no expression on his face. However, the moment Xu Han looked at him, he immediately stood up straight.

Xu Han nodded slightly to Han Qi and continued, "Okay, as long as you know it."

Lu Chuan then said, "Okay, everyone, hurry up and split up. Remember, no matter how long it takes, come back when your backpacks and sacks are full. Be sure to follow your leader closely and don't act alone. There are wild beasts in the mountains, and they are not to be trifled with."

Everyone nodded in agreement, then picked up the backpacks beside them and started walking in different directions.

Today, everyone not only carried backpacks, but also took two large sacks.

Moreover, the allocation of personnel is very reasonable. There are the same number of men and women in each team, so that they can carry more things back and save the trouble of running back and forth.

Xu Han followed Lu Chuan, and they were accompanied by Dan Niang, Liu Erzhu, Liu Sanzhu and Qi Yu.

The rest of the people followed the Taoist priest and Han Qi, and Lu Chuan led everyone towards the deep mountains.

This direction is exactly where Xu Han and Lu Chuan often go into the mountains. Xu Han hasn't been here for a long time. Looking at the place that is both familiar and unfamiliar, he felt a little emotional for a moment.

After the natural disaster, Xu Han went into the mountains less frequently, and had not been there in recent times. Looking at the same place in front of him, he saw that different shrubs were growing there again, and he felt very complicated for a moment.

However, this feeling did not last long, and soon she was bewitched by the wild fruits in the mountains.

Lu Chuan led them to a place he had already marked out. Not long after entering the mountains, everyone started picking wild fruits.
