I picked some peaches and they looked almost ready. I stood on the tree and saw a chestnut tree in front of me, so I happened to go over and take a look.

Li Rui just jumped off the ground and came to look for her.

"Yu'er."

"Brother, I'm here."

Li Yu waved to her elder brother from the tree.

"Let me help you."

"Brother, I picked peaches."

"This peach is sour."

Li Rui picked up a peach that fell on the ground and ate one, his face deformed with soreness.

"You might as well go back and make some wine or make tea."

"Okay, some food is better than nothing. Slow down and don't fall."

"Brother, I found a chestnut tree in front. We are walking forward."

The brother and sister went further and picked some wild vegetables and herbs. Li Rui went up the tree to pick some chestnuts and went back to roast them.

"Yu'er, I see there seems to be an old tea tree in front of you."

"real?"

Li Yu didn't climb up the tree. Li Rui was afraid that she would fall and climbed up instead.

"Come on, let's go over and take a look."

The brother and sister found a very old tea tree in front and jumped for joy.

"Great, we have tea."

"Then let me go up."

"I'll go. I have to pick the tea. The tea you picked isn't fragrant."

Li Yu tied a cloth bag around her waist and climbed up the tree neatly like a little monkey.

"The tea you picked will be fragrant."

Li Rui yelled at her unconvinced.

"Everyone picking tea is a girl, do you understand?"

Li Yubai glanced at him and felt very proud of his fair chin.

"That's a gimmick."

After a while, Li Yu picked up three big bags and checked that they were almost done.

Then he jumped down and put everything into the bamboo basket.

"Go back."

We don’t have to hunt today. We haven’t finished yesterday’s pheasant yet, so we just happened to hunt chestnuts. I’ll go back and eat pheasant meat stewed with chestnuts, which is also a dish.

"Grandpa, we are back, guess what we found?"

"tea tree."

Grandpa Gu spoke affirmatively.

Li Yu's eyes widened. She thought Grandpa Gu could guess the fruit.

"Grandpa Gu, you are so awesome. I thought you would say I picked fruit."

Li Yuba went over to show him the good things he had picked.

"This area has a mild climate and water, which is suitable for the growth of tea trees. I saw tea trees when I came here. I see that you are so excited that it must be the tea trees. Fruits are not worthy of your happiness."

People who can be commanders are also very smart.

"Beef, ginger is still spicy. I still have more to learn."

Li Yu stretched out his thumb and admired him very much.

"Observe carefully. Are there any important references in the surrounding environment? What trees are there? Are they coniferous or broad-leaved? Are there any trees or plants you recognize? Are there any animal marks?

If you are in a town, a pawn shop or an antique shop can be used as a reference. If the steward is dressed carefully, you can tell whether it is genuine or fake. Carelessness can kill you."

Grandpa Gu explained to her his military life experience very seriously.

Li Yu pricked up his ears and listened carefully.

"Then how do you tell the difference between east, west and north?"

Grandpa Gu glanced at her with understanding in his eyes.

Li Yu blushed and tugged on the old man's sleeve and shook it, "I was laughed at by Lei Zi, you have to help me."

"Stupid, look at the yin and yang side in the woods. The side where the sun shines is full of sunlight and the leaves are green and healthy. That's the south. The moist and mossy side is the north. You can also see the growth rings of the trees. If you look carefully, you can see it.

You can find the difference."

"We're also measuring the wind direction."

Grandpa Gu took her hand, raised one of her fingers, and said, "Put it in your mouth."

Li Yu did as he was told, then raised his finger and suddenly realized.

"Oh, I feel the wind."

When your fingers are wet with saliva, you can feel the direction of the wind when it blows.

"If you get lost, you can find your destination by following the direction of the river. If the river dries up, you can find it by looking for the river bed. It's useless if you can only read a map but don't know how to use it."

"I always get lost. I remember all the maps."

Li Yu smiled sheepishly.

"You still haven't practiced enough. You should watch more and think more along the way. You will learn it when you get home. Girls are born with a poor sense of direction, but you can learn it if you study carefully. There is nothing you can't learn. With your ability, you are wrong

You can survive regardless of the direction, so you don’t have to worry about it.”

Grandpa Gu liked her very much. He taught her many skills and skills along the way, which his grandson never taught carefully.

"Grandpa, neither can I."

Brother Xing came to join in the fun.

"I've taught you twice and you still can't learn it. You are also a girl and you don't deserve a beating."

Grandpa Gu raised his hand and slapped Brother Xing on the back of the head.

Brother Xing bared his teeth in pain and said, "Grandpa, you are partial."

"I'm just partial. I'm happy to do it. If I don't learn how to, get out."

Grandpa Gu doesn't have that much patience with boys. If he doesn't agree with her, he will slap her immediately. He will definitely learn to do it after a few more strokes.

"You have to learn skills carefully. You are smarter than me. These are skills that can save your life. Don't learn from me. You can't tell the difference between east, west and north."

"It's okay. I'm my sister's guide. I can tell the difference clearly."

Brother Xing assured him by patting his chest.

"Brother Xing is so sensible and a man."

Li Yu patted his back happily.

"Mom, let's make a bar and get that peach."

"Okay, I'll do it in the afternoon."

In the afternoon, the two mothers cleaned the jars and prepared to make some fruit wine.

Aunt Gu and the others were peeling chestnuts, and even Brother Xu was helping.

Just after finishing his work in the afternoon, Gu Lei came back.

"I'm back, is everything going well?"

"It's okay. I heard about the new situation. Yu'er, I bought you apples and candies."

Gu Lei put down the bamboo basket and took out the things he bought and handed them to Li Yu immediately.

Inside is a pack of snacks and sugar. There are several kinds of sugar, all of which are her favorite flavors, as well as pickled plums.

This is not cheap, and it is not difficult to make. In the past, this was done in the government, and this bag of snacks is more expensive than a bag of grain.

"Isn't it expensive? I don't eat sweets anymore when I grow up."

Li Yu first stuffed a piece of candy into his brother's mouth, and then stuffed a piece into Brother Xing's mouth.

Gu Lei picked up a candy and stuffed it into her mouth, "It's not expensive. You are my baby. As a reward, I specially bought it for you. They are all your favorite flavors."

Li Yu looked at him and smiled sweetly, "I know you are thinking about me, so I'll give you one."

He also stuffed a piece of snack into his mouth.

"Well, it's not as delicious as the ones made in the house. Let's make a living to satisfy our craving."

Gu Lei ate the snack with her hand. After a few bites, he shook his head with a critical expression on his face.

"Master, this bag of snacks is more expensive than a bag of grain."

"That doesn't matter. Do you want to earn money after spending it? I'll find a way."

Gu Lei went to the city to learn a lot of information.

"Brother Lei, what did you observe? Come and talk."

Boss Li waved to him.

"Here, let's discuss it together. I have a plan."

Gu Lei took Li Yu to discuss it together.

Lin Yue could only watch from the sidelines. She couldn't participate in such a big event, but Li Yu could.
