Chapter 51: Up the Mountain

After lunch, Chen Ling and Wang Susu rested at home for a while, then took the cow and two puppies from the backyard and left the house.

It rained twice a while ago, but it has been very sunny these two days.

The sky is so blue and so bright that it's blinding.

It is indeed getting warmer day by day, and the peach trees in the village are also blooming.

Chen Ling asked Wang Susu to ride on the cow and lead the cow away.

Su Su's body is light, and the little buffalo can carry it easily.

The key is, it has become familiar with Wang Susu in the past two days.

Perhaps it was because Chen Ling's scent was stronger on Wang Susu's body, or perhaps because Wang Susu had a stronger affinity, it was like facing a little baby, so she didn't feel any discomfort.

In short, now Wang Susu can not only reach out and touch it, play with it, but also ride on it.

The two passed through the village. There were not many people in the village today, except for a few people who were painting slogans about the new family planning policy. They were led around the streets by the women's director Wang Xiuhua.

"Aling, I heard from Uncle Wu that you came up with the slogan this time?"

Wang Susu sat on the back of the cow and asked.

"Yes, Dongmei's sister said that the last slogan was not allowed to be painted until half of it was painted. She said that it was still the same old slogan from previous years and could not achieve the desired publicity effect, so she asked her to think of a new one."

Chen Ling saw that Wang Xiuhua and others were far away from him, so he had no intention of saying hello. He continued: "It's nothing. I just thought of a few slogans that the villagers can understand. I was just thinking."

"What nonsense is this? I heard that Brother Jusheng can't even figure it out?"

Wang Susu read a few slogans, but found them very fresh. Looking left and right, she felt quite proud of Chen Ling.

But soon, her attention was attracted by a sentence: "Should it be pricked or not, the house should collapse, should it be expelled or should it be demolished, the house should be demolished and the cows..."

After reading it softly twice, Wang Susu frowned slightly: "Aling, everything else is very good, but your writing is too boring."

Chen Ling knew what she meant, but she thought it was too explicit.

He smiled and said: "Since this is used, it means that this slogan is in line with their wishes, so let's not think too deeply about it."

Wang Susu didn't say anything more after hearing what he said.

But he still couldn't help but snorted softly to express his dissatisfaction.

Upon seeing this, Chen Ling gave her a relieved smile and continued to lead the cow outside the village.

When we left the village, that is, to the west of the village, we saw a lively scene in the south where the two-pillar greenhouse was built.

Donkey carts and ox carts pulling thick and long bamboo poles, as well as carts full of cement, thickened plastic films, etc., are constantly being transported there.

Because after the tractor pulls the materials, it cannot go down the reservoir dam, and other roads leading out of the village are too narrow, or have potholes and steep slopes to walk on.

We can only drive donkey carts and ox carts to transport the goods.

Seeing this scene, Chen Ling suddenly understood why Er Zhu called so many people over.

For a greenhouse covering fifty acres of land, it would take several days to transport the materials alone.

Moreover, cement piles need to be driven behind, otherwise the greenhouse will not be able to support it at all.

After looking towards the side of the greenhouse, Chen Ling and his wife continued to rush to their fields.

When they arrived at the foot of the mountain, there was no need to mention how happy Wang Susu was when she saw the trees that had come to life again.

In short, there is no doubt about Chen Ling's proposal to plant fruit trees.

"Yeah, I've compiled the medicine basket, but I forgot to bring it."

After grazing the cattle around the field ridge for a while, Wang Susu suddenly screamed.

He said in annoyance: "I originally thought that after coming to the field to see what the trees looked like, I would go to the mountains to pick some medicine, but now I can't do it."

"It's okay if you don't bring a medicine basket. If we find medicinal materials today, we will mark them. It will be the same when we come back tomorrow to collect them."

Chen Ling pointed to the south bank as he spoke: "Now the people in the village are either working at the second pillar or busy with spring plowing. Almost no one goes into the mountain, and no one takes it away after marking it."

"Right."

Wang Susu thought that this was indeed the case, "Aling, would you like to go up the mountain with me?"

"Of course it's a piece. How can I trust you to go alone?"

Chen Ling walked over and pinched her little nose.

"Hehe, let's go now."

Wang Susu immediately smiled sweetly, broke away from his hand, puffed out her cheeks and glared at him.

So they took the cow and the two puppies and walked up the mountain.

"Watch your steps, Su Su. There are a lot of broken glass shards on the edge of the ditch in front, so be careful if you pierce your feet."

Chen Ling reminded me.

The land at the foot of the mountain is less than a hundred meters away from the trail up the mountain.

There is also a small dry ditch in the middle.

It was dug by Erzhu's father before. Firstly, it was used to discharge the sewage from the lime factory. Secondly, when there was a lot of rain in the mountains in summer, there was a ditch to drain the water so that the lime factory would not be flooded.

But it has been abandoned for more than ten years now, and some unscrupulous person has dumped many wine bottles into it, breaking them into pieces, and you may be hit accidentally.

Especially when there is a lot of rain in summer, small rivers and ditches will be filled with water, hiding a bunch of frogs and toads. Children are most likely to get their feet pricked when they come to catch frogs.

"Okay, I'm watching."

Wang Susu responded with a sweet voice, walked briskly around the ditch, and walked up the mountain path with the two puppies.

She has lived in a village in the mountains since she was a child, often collecting herbs with her parents, and has an extremely strong affinity for the mountains and forests.

In the two years since their marriage, Chen Ling quickly destroyed the family fortune left by his mother-in-law. It was Wang Susu who relied on the money she collected and sold from the mountains to be able to maintain her expenses.

Otherwise, the money from selling the grain from the family's ten acres of land would not be enough for him to build.

In the past, Chen Ling usually stayed away from home all day, and would never go back to the arcades and billiard halls in the county town until dark.

In those days, she would always go to the mountains to collect herbs alone, and then go to the village market or the county drugstore to sell them alone.

How much danger will she, a weak woman, take on this journey?

Thinking about that scene, Chen Ling felt heartbroken.

But now...

He came here from another time and space, and everything became better.

Looking at Wang Susu's cheerful back on the mountain road, Chen Ling couldn't help but smile.

"Aling, hurry up!"

"Okay, here we come."

Chen Ling took the cow and quickly followed.

Although the mountain path here is narrow, it is not too steep, and the little buffalo can walk without difficulty.

Of course, it is fed by Dongtian streams and Dongtian vegetables. It is different from ordinary cattle and can still walk on steep mountain roads.

As the young couple walked, they searched for medicinal materials.

Suddenly, a gray shadow flashed in front of him.

Chen Ling and Wang Susu were shocked. Before they could realize what was going on, Hei Wa and Xiao Jin were already barking and running out.

"Don't chase, come back quickly..."

At this time, Chen Ling saw clearly that it was a gray rabbit. It was quite big and much fatter than the rabbits at the beginning of spring.

After being alarmed by them, he jumped through the mountains and forests at very fast speed.

Heiwa and Xiaojin were chasing after them, but unfortunately they were too young to catch up.

At this time, when they heard Chen Ling calling them, they reluctantly gave up the chase, turned around and ran back to the two of them.

"Two little fools, they ran around up the mountain without fear of stepping on a trap."

Chen Ling scolded him with a cold face.

There is no illegal hunting at this time, and you can enter the forest at will.

As long as they can't eat meat for a while, the villagers will find ways to go to the mountains to make tooth sacrifices.

But when you go into the mountains, you don’t always get satisfactory results.
