Mushroom picking is the only source of income for small farms today. In winter, small farms lose their greenery and silvery white snow covers the entire small farm. So much so that the entire Komixing town seems a little quiet. The farmers are either on vacation or going to see
A game of football and a movie to spend more of the cold winter days.
Hank's Farm has become more lively because of Dudu and his gang of little guys. They are picking mushrooms. A group of little guys are carrying small baskets, small baskets, and small stools. They are busy shuttling in the passages extending in all directions, like little elf mice.
"Don't steal the balls." Dudu was carrying a basket full of balls and saw the balls sneaking up beside the big basket from a distance and running over.
Qiuqiu has been living a good life recently, his fur is getting smoother and thicker, and he is fleshy. He is really growing into a ball. The pink fleshy ball is a lot bigger, nearly two-thirds of Qiuqiu’s height.
"The meat ball has grown taller again."
Both Dudu and Baobao like the very shy Meatball, and they love dressing up Meatball. Especially the one with the butterfly pierced Meatball is extremely cute, just like the mouse princess in cartoons.
Dudu reluctantly stuffed a large piece of the most delicious colorful mushrooms into Rouqiuqiu, and played with Rouqiuqiu for a while, then he remembered that the mushrooms in the basket were poured into the basket, and he did not forget to warn Rouqiuqiu when he left.
You are not allowed to steal the ball. Qiuqiu squeaked and pointed at the meat ball. This guy was a little depressed. The difference in treatment was too big.
Dudu acted as if he hadn't seen it. He patted the ball hard and jumped up and accused himself of being unfair. He carried the small basket and continued to pick mushrooms.
The cute rabbit Jina picked up the basket and ran over. Seeing the round and bulging balls on the side, she was immediately fascinated. "Sister Pandora, is this the rabbit you raised? It's so cute."
"Qiuqiu is not a rabbit, Qiuqiu is a big mouse."
Dudu's little mouth pouted. "Qiuqiu, let's play with sister. Dudu is going to pick mushrooms. Mom will send a car to transport mushrooms tomorrow."
Jennifer arranged for the car to come here every three days recently to buy fresh mushrooms. Of course, some shiitake mushrooms may be reprocessed. These are all arranged by Jennifer.
"Um."
Jina nodded her little head happily, but who knew that Qiuqiu would hold the meat ball high over the mouse's head and walk past Jina, looking like a proud mouse.
Jina blinked her eyes and pursed her lips. "Hehe, sister Jina, Qiuqiu doesn't play with strangers. I have to pay to play with you."
The baby poured the mushrooms into the basket and jumped off the stool. "The basket is full. Baby, go ask your uncle to move it." He turned around and ran out, leaving Jina pouting.
Li Han is busy repairing the fences around the entrance of the farm. Some fences are somewhat damaged due to snow accumulation and disrepair. Li Han plans to completely repair them while he has more time in winter, although the fence on the small farm is not of much use. "Uncle.
"The baby has filled another basket." "Really? I will help you move it out after uncle has nailed the board."
Li Han held the nail gun and drove the nails in a short while. He took the baby's hand and came to the passage. The baskets were piled up to the top. Brothers Taita and Taitan were still stacking them. The two brothers were a little too honest. "Brother Taita,
It's amazing." The baby clapped his little hands when he saw the pointed baskets piled up. The baskets were too high, and Dudu and the baby usually had to stand on a small stool to pour the mushrooms in the basket into the basket.
Li Han smiled and called the two older ones down first. A basket of mushrooms was not light in weight, and it was quite laborious to carry it out of the passage.
The basket was moved to the storage shed. Li Han carried a new basket and came to the passage. Seeing Dudu busy in the passage, he waved. "Dad, put it here."
"here?"
Li Han carried the basket and put it away. "Han, Pandora is cheating again and not paying wages." Tiffany saw Li Han coming and complained. "What's wrong?"
"My sister picked a lot of mushrooms, but Dudu didn't even ask her to pay for it."
Dudu puffed up his little mouth.
"But you didn't say that picking broken ones doesn't count."
Tiffany was a little unsure.
"Tiffany, I won't help you now. There is a clause in the contract. You are neglecting your work and your wages should be deducted." "Yeah." Dudu also nodded his head.
"Hmph, you father and daughter are working together to deceive people."
Tiffany snorted and stopped picking. "Dudu didn't lie. It's my sister who can't pick mushrooms." Dudu said angrily. "Broken mushrooms are very cheap. Mom said, good mushrooms are sold."
With a lot of money, you can’t even sell bad mushrooms.”
Dudu remembered everything. Tiffany murmured twice. Seeing that Li Han ignored her at all, Dudu became even more angry and snorted. She picked up the basket and continued to pick. This time the speed was slower, so be careful when picking.
few.
Compared to Gina and the Titan brothers, Maria is better at picking mushrooms. Although Maria is still a little weak, she is much better at picking mushrooms than Tiffany.
Dudu just showed Sister Tiffany the mushrooms picked by Maria, but her sister didn't admit that she was not good at picking them. Li Han smiled and rubbed Dudu's little head. "Sister, I have never done such a job, Dudu."
Just teach my sister slowly." "Tell dad when the basket is full."
Li Han still has work to do. The fence will be replaced with new wooden boards and painted again. There are no cattle or sheep in the living area around the small yard. Li Han also plans to tidy up the entrance and surroundings of the farm. There are a lot of horns and antlers in the house.
I plan to make an antler mailbox at the door, and pile an antler cowboy next to it.
Li Han was muttering what he was going to do when he heard the sound of a car behind him and turned around. "Weili, why are you here when you have time?" "I'm here to see Finn and Rem."
"Finn and Rem are at Pearl Flower Ranch today and will come back in the evening. They are both good people. What happened last time was that they were a little more reckless."
Finn and Rem were sentenced to weekend work because of the last time they broke into the farm. They still need to be looked at from time to time, especially since they moved to the small town of Komi Star, which is under the jurisdiction of Wei Li.
"Is Finn's son doing better?"
Weili helped Li Han hold the board, and Li Han nodded. "Not bad, the situation is better these days than before." "Oh, Han, I almost forgot, a traditional Chinese medicine and acupuncture shop has opened in the town."
Li Han almost forgot. "I almost forgot about this. I have asked someone to order a batch of herbal medicine. I will go to the town later."
Weili smiled. "I heard from Jack that acupuncture is very good?" "There are many types of acupuncture, but I heard that Chinese massage is good. You can try it. Let's go, I'll pack up and go."
I didn't pay attention these days, or Li Yongming was too busy recently and forgot. Li Han originally thought it would be postponed again, but he didn't expect it to be opened. Unfortunately, traditional Chinese medicine, acupuncture and massage can only be regarded as health care, not a clinic, and he has no medical qualifications. The same is true for acupuncturists.
It is very strict. You must remember all the meridians and the location of each acupuncture point, and you must receive formal training in traditional Chinese medicine.
Li Han knew a little about these meridians and acupuncture points, but he was relatively ordinary. "Mom, I'm going to town. Dudu is picking mushrooms over there. Aunt Xu can help take care of them."
"Go ahead."
Li Han and Weili came to the small town. The store was on the corner of the street and the location was pretty good. Li Han had already contacted Li Yongming on the way here. This Chinese medicine doctor was older and had a good temper. You must know that in this part of Montana, East Asians
There aren't many in the first place, but there is only Li Han's family in Mising Town.
"Master Wang, excuse me."
Li Han saw the gray-haired old man bending down slightly and said hello. "It's Xiao Li, please come in and sit down." "It's not decorated yet and there's no place to entertain. Please sit down."
Li Han and Wei Li sat down, and Li Han presented a gift, space tea, fried by Liu Ming, which was fragrant. At that time, Liu Ming pulled out a bag and said that if the master made this tea, it would be at least top quality. If his skills were inferior, he would be considered above average.
"Good tea, rare, rare, Xiao Li also likes it." "My parents like it better. I drink it when I have time, but it's not really a hobby."
Li Han said with a smile.
Wang Donglin smiled and took out the tea set. Li Han had learned a lot in the past six months and was impressed by the old man's tea ceremony skills. Wei Li accompanied Li Han to drink a cup of tea and left. Wang Donglin's English skills were limited. "It's really good skills, Wang."
This old man’s skill is admirable.”
"Haha, I usually like to drink tea. I need to be more proficient, but I am not good at martial arts. I will bring you the herbs and put them away." Wang Donglin didn't talk much about traditional Chinese medicine.
"Sorry to trouble you."
Li Han invited Wang Donglin to visit the farm. The old man was not polite and nodded in agreement. "The farm is good. You are self-reliant." "Nowadays, many big companies and big capital have entered. Some farms in the central and southern parts are now modernized. Montana is relatively remote.
There are few people, and there are still some shadows of traditional old-fashioned farms.”
Li Han has been here for five years and has seen many cases of large companies annexing family farms. Nowadays, many small farms are lagging behind in modern production, resulting in high costs and fierce market competition. Bankruptcy is very common once there is some drought or the like. "With the development of the times,
We old men won’t talk about this. You young people accept it faster than us."
Wang Donglin said with some regrets, maybe this is some regrets about traditional Chinese medicine. The knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine is extensive and profound, and it needs to be studied. In today's society, there are really few people who are willing to be apprentices and waiters. After studying for three to five or ten years, there is little waste.
Wang Donglin now has less than ten nominal apprentices plus one yuan, and there is not one who is actually engaged in traditional Chinese medicine.
Li Hancha said. "Mr. Wang, if you need help if you need anything, you're welcome." "It's nothing busy. The environment here is not bad, and it's good to retire here."
Wang Donglin seems to be in a good mood.
Li Han saw that it was late and said, "I'll pick you up tomorrow." Li Han packed the herbs and said hello to Wang Donglin, then left and returned to the farm.
Mom and Aunt Xu were very happy to learn that an old Chinese medicine doctor came to the town. "Western medicine is said to have quick effects, but taking too much is not good. Chinese medicine treats the root cause."
"Master Wang is very kind. Mom, I invite Master Wang to come to our house as a guest tomorrow." Li Han put the medicinal materials away, clapped his hands and told his mother.
"This is the right thing to do. Let's cook more dishes tomorrow because it's rare for guests to come." Zhang Xiuying said with a smile. "I wonder where this old chef is from?"
Li Han was stunned for a moment. "I didn't ask. The accent sounds like someone from the southern coast." "Mom, this Master Wang is a very nice person. You don't need to be too particular. Just home-cooked food."
Although Li Han and Wang Donglin had just met each other and chatted for a while, they felt that he was a nice guy and not an old man as imagined. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature for better and faster novels!
