    Jiang Tian went to the west room, took out the kimchi jar placed on the wooden board, and washed it under the pressure well. Grandpa cleaned these jars before putting them away when they were not in use, so they could be used after washing them several times.

    Over there, grandpa and Dong Shihao have washed the vegetables and put them in plastic baskets to control the water.

    Grandpa began to prepare the seasonings and said: "In this season, you can eat bamboo shoots. It can be used for pickling and frying meat, especially when fried with bacon. The taste is simply amazing. The fragrance of bamboo shoots  And the flavor of bacon, the two are mixed together, and when you chew it in your mouth, the juice explodes."

    Dong Shihao swallowed hard after hearing this, and Jiang Tian next to him couldn't help but smile: "Grandpa, we all want to eat what you said, why don't I go to the mountain to have a look."

    "No, don't go up the mountain just after it rains. It's too dangerous." Grandpa advised.

    "It's okay. I know the bamboo forest is there. You can see bamboo shoots after it rains. I'll go with Dong Shihao and be back soon."

    "Okay, pay attention to the road." Grandpa did not persuade them much. They were all adults, and it was not that dangerous to go out to find bamboo shoots.

    Jiang Tian found a basket and a machete, dragged Dong Shihao and ran outside.

    When Jiang Tian was a child, he went to the bamboo forest with his grandfather. Now that he has been here after so many years, he really misses it.

    In front of them was an entire bamboo forest. It was unclear how large the area was, but it was very wide. If you were not careful, you might get lost if you entered it.

    They say springing up like bamboo shoots after a rain, which originally refers to things springing up in large numbers, but when they came here, they really saw what springing up is like.

    There are many bamboo shoots sprouting out, densely packed, it is really spectacular.

    Dong Shihao was stunned, "Is this a bamboo shoot? It's the first time I've seen it. It's really awesome."

    He rolled up his sleeves and was about to go over. Jiang Tian quickly said: "When digging bamboo shoots, you must be careful not to get the mother bamboo, otherwise you will end up fishing in vain. Follow me and learn."

    Jiang Tian showed him how to do it, and Dong Shihao quickly learned it. The two of them worked hard in the bamboo forest, and one bamboo shoot after another was put into the basket.

    "It's so cool!" Dong Shihao couldn't help shouting. He was born in the city. Usually, the nanny at home would buy the vegetables directly from the vegetable market and prepare them. Even if he later went to the vegetable market with his friends and saw bamboo shoots,  , that has already been done.

    It was the first time that I dug bamboo shoots in the ground in person. Only he knew that feeling.

    Unconsciously, the basket was already full. Jiang Tian pulled Dong Shihao and said, "Okay, that's enough. Let's go back."

    "Let's go back now." Dong Shihao was still a little unsatisfied. Jiang Tian would not let him stay here any longer. He was still waiting at home.

    Jiang Tian was carrying the basket, and Dong Shihao was following behind, humming a tune. He really looked like he was traveling here.

    When they arrived at the village, they met two uncles. It was Uncle Wang and Uncle Guan who had come to their house for a drink.

    "Uncle Wang, Uncle Guan!" Jiang Tian greeted.

    The two were talking and laughing. When someone called them, Uncle Wang looked over.

    "It turns out it's you, Wazi. You were going up the mountain and we happened to meet you. Come and take some fish back."

    They put down the buckets, which contained various fish, such as carp, crucian carp, silver carp, and two large grass carps.

    The other bucket contains shrimps, crabs, loaches, eels, etc.

    The two of them were also carrying a net bag, which contained a large number of river mussels, which was not light.

    "You guys are fishing!" Jiang Tian was surprised. These two uncles were really loyal fishermen. They went to fish just after it rained.

    Uncle Guan said proudly: "Yes, it just happened to rain, and those fish were washed down, so I took Lao Wangtou over. There are still many by the river. I am preparing to send these back and come back to catch fish.  Woolen cloth."

    ¡°Forget it, I won¡¯t give these to you either. You two young men, go back quickly and grab the buckets and nets to catch fish.¡±

    Jiang Tian looked at Dong Shihao and his eyes lit up again, knowing that his heart was moved.

    "Thank you, uncle. We went up the mountain to dig some bamboo shoots. You can take some back."

    Uncle Wang looked at the bamboo shoots in the basket and praised: "The fresh and tender bamboo shoots are just right to add when making fish soup. We two old guys can't go to the bamboo forest, so we just grab some."

      The two of them each took two handfuls, which were not much. They didn¡¯t ask for more, saying they were old and couldn¡¯t eat much, so they could eat just these fish for a while.

    Farewell to the two uncles, they returned home. Grandpa had already put the vegetables into the jar, added seasonings, and was sealing the jar.

    Seeing their basket full of bamboo shoots, he smiled and said: "You two are really awesome. These can be eaten for a long time. The bamboo shoots are fresh and tender. They won't be good if they are left for a long time. But it's good to take advantage of the weather."  Okay, I¡¯ll dry some dried bamboo shoots for you, you can eat them as snacks later.¡±

    Jiang Tian put down the basket, "Grandpa, we just met Uncle Wang and Uncle Guan. They caught a lot of fish in the river. Let's go over and have a look."

    "Okay, you go ahead, don't play too long." Grandpa nodded.

    Jiang Tian went to get the fishing net, cage and bucket, and followed Dong Shihao to the river.

    At this time, due to heavy rain, the water in the river was turbulent and turbid.

    They reached the middle and lower reaches, and all the large puddles were filled, and the water overflowed.

    After the rain stopped, the water that originally overflowed returned to the river, but a lot of good things were left in the puddles.

    The crucian carp¡¯s tail slapped the water, struggling to get out of the water. The densely packed fish inside stayed in the only remaining river water.

    No wonder the old men want to come back after a trip, these fish are just waiting for them to catch them.

    Dong Shihao was just like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden. He was so excited that he took the fishing net and went to catch fish. As soon as he caught it, it was all in the net, and then he fell into the bucket.

    Seeing the fish flapping its tail in the bucket, he felt inexplicably satisfied.

    Jiang Tian let Dong Shihao go fishing, while he walked towards the half-dried water, where besides fish, there was also mud.

    When you stretch your hand in the mud, you can have a slippery feeling. Clamp your fingers. When you drag it, two more hypertrophic loachs are already out.

    He saw a small hole with bubbles bubbling inside. After thinking about it, he caught a small fish, crushed it and placed it next to the hole.

    A layer of oil roses on the water surface, and Jiang Tian waited quietly.

    Within about ten seconds, a yellowed head stuck out from the entrance of the cave. As soon as it appeared, Jiang Tian had quick eyes and quick hands. With his thumb and index finger, he pulled the eel out of the cave like a pair of iron pliers.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
