Changshui Village Farming Notes

Chapter 446 Chestnut (Four in One)

Therefore, not only Fatty Wang, but even Yuan Qiguang have some expectations for the mooncakes for this Mid-Autumn Festival.

Because of such a small relationship, he also greeted Fatty Wang, saying that if Gu Kuangyun needs help with anything, he can be notified.

Although he doesn't care whether Suiyuan Restaurant can make a profit, Yuan Qiguang still wants to keep it going. Most of Suiyuan's vegetables now depend on Moon Bay, so he also cares more about maintaining their friendly relationship with Gu Kuangyun. .

In it, there is also Yuan Qiguang's little thought.

When we met for the first time, Yuan Qiguang realized that he might pay a little attention to Gu Kuangyun, but later because some things in his company took him a lot of thought, so he temporarily put Gu Kuangyun on The man forgot about it.

When he came back to his senses, he found that Gu Kuangyun was already with Han Qingyi.

At this time, he couldn't help feeling a little bit disappointed, but this loss hadn't left a deep mark on his heart, so Yuan Qiguang felt that he only had a little appreciation for Gu Kuangyun.

If the two of them could keep in touch, maybe he would have a deeper feeling for Gu Kuangyun. Unfortunately, things are impermanent. Not only did his appreciation for Gu Kuangyun not rise to such a high level, but with Han Qingyi's existence, Yuan Qiguang even more so. It completely dispelled this thought.

However, even so, he still decided to maintain a close cooperative relationship with Moon Bay, after all, Gu Kuangyun will be the second daughter-in-law of the Han family in the future!

As the two big families in the province, the Han family and the Yuan family, it is inevitable that there will be no cooperation in the future. Coupled with Han Qingyang's skills, Yuan Qiguang felt that it is best for this person to be a friend. If he is an opponent, he will have a headache.

And Gu Kuangyun could become a bridge of goodwill between the two of them.

……

As for Fatty Wang, Fatty Wang has always regarded the relationship between him and Gu Kuangyun relatively purely. At the beginning, Lin Bo introduced them to each other, and it was just a partnership.

But everyone has been friends for a long time, and the relationship is strong, so Fatty Wang treats Gu Kuangyun as a true friend.

Sister Xiaoyun trusted him and gave him face. She didn't sell the vegetables on the mountain to others. He was really grateful.

Since he regards the other party as a true friend, his attitude is naturally a little more casual.

So when someone asked about Mid-Autumn moon cakes, Fatty Wang called Gu Kuangyun.

He didn't know if Gu Kuangyun had any ideas about the mid-autumn festival, but if the mountain didn't come to him, he could only go to the mountain.

……

At that time, Gu Kuangyun was beating chestnuts in the mountains.

She had just driven the volcanic wheel up the back mountain, and Gong Xifacai also took their sons to the chestnut and walnut planting place in the back mountain, when she received a call from Fatty Wang.

As soon as the other person talked about the matter, Gu Kuangyun said that she also had the same idea.

Not long ago, Moon Bay harvested a batch of beans. During this period, chestnuts and walnuts have also matured. It can be said that there are sufficient raw materials for making moon cakes.

Fatty Wang said, "Sister Xiaoyun, what are you doing? Is there anything delicious on the mountain recently?"

Gu Kuangyun said, "Brother Wang, your call is really timed. I'm making chestnuts here." Fatty Wang, the timing of the call is really sharp.

Gu Kuangyun bought seedlings that bear fruit for four years, so the chestnuts have only been planted for one year, and the chestnuts have already begun to bear fruit this year.

Although the output is not high, but because Gu Kuangyun planted a lot, the total amount is quite considerable. The seedlings are strong and the chestnuts produced are also large.

Fatty Wang said, "Sister Xiaoyun, you're ready, you can give me some. My favorite is fried chestnuts."

"Don't worry, you have to fry it in a big iron pan. It's absolutely delicious." Gu Kuangyun replied, in fact, she also likes it. In order to make delicious sugar-fried chestnuts, he even went to the market to buy fried chestnuts. "Cooked sand".

Fatty Wang said, "Sure, sister Xiaoyun, I'm pretty well prepared."

Gu Kuangyun said, "Brother Wang, I am following you! We have tried our best to make delicious food." When it comes to delicious food, Gu Kuangyun really can't compare with this greedy fat man.

"Living in this world is all about eating and drinking. Sister Xiaoyun, you see it clearly." Fatty Wang was also boasting himself in disguise.

Fatty Wang and Gu Kuangyun agreed on the delivery time, and hung up the phone contentedly, and Gu Kuangyun was ready to make chestnuts here.

……

It's only been a year, and the chestnut tree doesn't grow very tall.

In the past, there were old chestnut trees in the mountains, which could grow to a height of more than ten meters, but the batch that Gu Kuangyun just planted is now only one and a half people tall.

Here is a small valley, the ground is not flat, and it is some distance away from the yard in the mountain, so the tricycle can't drive up at all. Gu Kuangyun carried a big backpack with tools for picking chestnuts on the back, and brought her "guard" They" entered the mountain.

Gu Kuangyun came to the chestnut forest, and there were a few chestnut balls that had matured and fallen off the ground.

The soft inner core has been exposed, it is a mature chestnut, and the outer skin is oily earth brown, which is faintly visible under the sharp outer skin.

Few people come here at ordinary times. There is a thick layer of fallen leaves on the ground. It hasn’t rained recently. The fallen leaves on the ground have lost their toughness due to the sun’s rays. A few puppies’ feet stepped on them lightly, and the fallen leaves fell Make a crunchy sound.

Gu Kuangyun put down the basket and first looked around in the woods to see how this year's harvest was.

A few puppies thought of the chestnut ball as a fun toy, and wanted to touch it with their paws. Gu Kuangyun turned his head and saw this scene, and couldn't stop it.

I saw the paws of several puppies reaching out to touch the chestnut ball at the same time, and the force was not light.

The chestnut ball is rebellious and will not be tamed easily. Its sharp appearance resists foreign enemies without hesitation.

As soon as the paws of the puppies touched them, they retracted abruptly, barking several times.

It should be hurt from being stabbed, they kept shaking their heads, and the ears on their heads were twitching, which seemed very cute to Gu Kuangyun.

In order to pick chestnuts, Gu Kuangyun brought a lot of equipment, including thick gloves and clips with long handles.

Several puppies are still surrounding the chestnut ball, looking at this powerful guy curiously, unwilling to leave.

Gu Kuangyun bent down, and used his gloved hands to shave their bodies apart, "Go to the side and play, and I will hurt you later."

The puppies twisted their bodies and avoided Gu Kuangyun's hand. Gu Kuangyun looked at them, seeing that there was nothing he could do, so he ignored them and picked up chestnuts on the ground.

Changshui Village in the golden autumn has not yet shown much autumn color, the forest is still lush and green, and there are birds jumping up and down in the forest from time to time.

Gu Kuangyun first used a long bamboo pole to knock down the ripe chestnut balls on the branches, and waited until the ripe chestnuts on the tree were almost gone, then put down the bamboo pole, and pulled out the chestnuts one by one from the chestnut balls on the ground.

For the cracked chestnut balls, Gu Kuangyun usually used her feet to step on both sides of the chestnut balls to expose the chestnuts inside, and then bent down to pick up the chestnuts inside one by one.

If there are no cracked chestnut balls, she has to wear cloth gloves and hold scissors in the other hand to cut open the shell of the chestnut ball, and then take out the chestnut inside.

Fresh chestnuts are not easy to peel off. Peel off the chestnut shell, and there is still a layer of membrane that clings to the chestnut meat.

Gu Kuangyun peeled off the skin with a knife. The chestnut inside was still a tender one. When chewed in his mouth, it was very sweet and juicy.

Thinking about what Fatty Wang said just now, Gu Kuangyun felt that this chestnut must be delicious for making mooncakes.

Gong Xi Fa Cai and a group of puppies watched Gu Kuangyun eat with gusto, looking at her with expectant little eyes, panting constantly.

Gu Kuangyun was holding a chestnut in her hand, tossing it up and down, and the eyes of the puppies also fluctuated with the chestnut. She deliberately teased them, "Why, do you want to eat it too?"

Congratulations first gave a "Wow", and the tail behind him wagged more happily.

Gu Kuangyun peeled off another one with a knife, and put the skin in his palm. Congratulations, he tilted his head, looked at the round thing in her hand, sniffed it again, and then hesitated. He took the chestnut into his mouth.

The younger brother and his sons around it surrounded it like stars and the moon, their eyes were very focused.

Congratulations. I chewed the chestnuts and swallowed them into my stomach. I think the aftertaste is good.

It gave a "bark" to the audience, which should mean that it's okay for me to eat it, and you can eat it.

So, the puppies all looked at Gu Kuangyun again. Gu Kuangyun picked up a few chestnuts on the ground, peeled them one by one and put them in his palm, waiting for the puppies to receive their food.

Congratulations to Facai and his sons, who were also very conscious, lined up in front of her one by one.

Gu Kuangyun stroked a puppy's head and gave a chestnut, all in order.

They wanted to eat after eating, but Gu Kuangyun didn't allow it.

Dogs can’t eat things that are too high in sugar or that are not easy to digest. Both of these chestnuts are all taken up, so naturally they can’t eat any more.

"Eat whatever you want, just taste it." Gu Kuangyun tapped their little noses and waved them to play.

As if they knew that Gu Kuangyun would not give them any more chestnuts, the puppies shook and looked at each other for a while, but finally they were defeated and led the team to stroll around again.

The decadent atmosphere didn't last long, and the puppies forgot about being rejected just now, and played happily again.

Gu Kuangyun squatted down again to pick up chestnuts, occasionally sat down to rest for a while, and threw a fresh chestnut into his mouth.

Tired of breaking them one by one, she simply picked up the chestnut balls with pliers and put them in the basket, and waited for everyone to peel the chestnuts when she got them back to Moon Bay.

"Wang Wang Wang!!"

"Wang Wang Wang!!"

"Wang Wang!!"

After an unknown amount of time, Gu Kuangyun was still concentrating on picking up chestnut balls, when the cheerful barking of puppies came not far away, and the barking was getting closer and closer to her.

Gu Kuangyun didn't know what happened, but she stopped what she was doing and stood up, looking around, trying to find out where Gong Xifacai was with her sons.

"Wang Wang Wang!!"

"Wang Wang."

The sound is getting closer.

Gu Kuangyun soon spotted the figures of the puppies in the direction of the forest to the east, and they were galloping towards him.

Then she was pleasantly surprised to find that Gong Xifacai had caught a pheasant from some corner of the mountain.

The pheasant's tail is very long, and Gong Xi kept holding its neck in his mouth. As Gong Xi ran, its feathers kept dragging on the ground.

The pheasant's eyes were closed desperately, and it probably couldn't bear the feeling of "motion sickness".

Congratulations came to Gu Kuangyun, the mouth loosened, the pheasant fell from its mouth, the dog arched its head, and pushed the pheasant towards Gu Kuangyun, motioning her to put the pheasant away.

Gu Kuangyun touched the heads of the puppies in surprise, and praised them a few words.

The puppies barked twice again happily, and their stature became taller and mightier.

Gu Kuangyun carefully inspected the pheasant and found that it was not harmed.

The gorgeous feathers on its body are also glowing with colorful halos, but the dogs have been guarding by its side all the time, and it is dumbfounded, as if its IQ is in arrears.

Gu Kuangyun had never heard of this pheasant being so stupid. He heard from the old people that this thing was fierce. In the past, when people played cockfights, their heads were often broken.

Gu Kuangyun stretched out his hand to catch it, guessing that the several vicious "bodyguards" around him were also honest, with an extremely docile appearance.

Some people said they saw these things in the mountains when they started in spring, but because they ran so fast, no one could catch them. I didn't expect her dogs to be so powerful, and their ability to catch prey is really awesome.

She didn't bring a rope, so she pulled out a few weeds on the side of the road, tied up the two paws of the pheasant, hung the pheasant upside down, and carried the pheasant back to Moon Bay.

……

When I brought it home, there were many people in the yard.

Master Yang smiled pleasantly when he saw it, and looked here and there, as if he was evaluating which part of the pheasant was the most delicious.

He asked Gu Kuangyun, "Where did you catch the pheasant? It's so plump and its feathers look so bright. It's good for making shuttlecocks."

"When I was picking chestnuts, Gong Xifacai caught them. Suddenly a pheasant came over, and I was shocked. I didn't expect them to have this ability." Gu Kuangyun replied with a smile, "Master Yang, you I used to play shuttlecock when I was young!"

She suddenly remembered the idiom, "wait for the rabbit", which is so true to the actual situation.

"Hey, didn't we just play with these when we were young, playing sandbags, hopscotch, and playing with shuttlecocks and hoops. Shuttlecocks made of such beautiful feathers must be the most showy ones when they are taken out. "Maybe because he remembered something happy, Master Yang had a look of reminiscence on his face.

"Hehe, let me take our two generations as an example, everyone plays in the same way." Gu Kuangyun said.

Master Yang regained his composure, and stroked Gong Xifa Cai's head in relief, thinking about stewing big bones for them at night.

"As far as a powerful dog like Gong Xi Fa Cai is concerned, it could have been used as a hunting dog in the past. If anyone among several partners has such a powerful dog, he will be envied to death."
