"I'm not tired."

"Xiaoli, don't be stubborn. After sitting for a day, you will definitely feel uncomfortable. The kang will get hot for a while. You can lie down and rest for a while."

In the end, Zhao Xiaoli was moved by Jiang Xinyu and lay next to her two children.

The four people who went up the mountain followed the large army, and Li Yungui demanded very severely that everyone could not act alone.

With this situation, there is no wild animal at all, so most people chop wood. Children just look for fruit trees and sour jujube branches.

Jingchu was quite disappointed, "Brother, let's chop wood."

"Okay, what's the disappointment about this? Although there is no good thing, it's safe."

However, Li Yunqiang brought more than a dozen strong laborers into the mountains.

Guodong discovered it, but he also knew that he would never take his own. He could only be disappointed.

Li Yunqiang and the others were thinking about seeing if there were any wild animals. Although they were not enough, they could have a meal together.

Maybe the wild animals at the foot of the mountain were scared and ran up, so more than ten of them still gained something. The hare only beat six and ten pheasants.

This is a bumper harvest, right? Li Yunqiang stopped when he saw it, and hurriedly called everyone down the mountain and met with the villagers.

Jingchu was not moved when she saw the wild animals in their hands. She just wanted to pick persimmons.

Li Xue and the others are already familiar with each other, "Jingchu, what do you want?"

"The main thing I went up the mountain this time is to pick persimmons."

"I'll ask my fourth uncle if I've seen a persimmon tree later."

"Thank you, Li Xue, let's forget it. I know it's too dangerous to walk inside. If there is no, there is no. Aunt Jiang has a lot of them at home."

Li Xue is not a fool, so she didn't say much, after all, this is an unknown danger.

Everyone was very happy to see so many preys.

"We're going to have a meal?"

"Yes, potatoes, stewed with radish, sorghum and rice, and ate them."

"That's great, village chief, let's behead pigs?"

"Which dreams are you? You have to wait until the task is handed over before you can eat it yourself."

"We will hand in the task as soon as possible and save the pigs from losing the scale."

"You have to enter the twelfth lunar month, otherwise you will definitely find it."

Everyone knows that when it gets cold, pigs lose weight, but there is no way. A small village like them can only wait until the twelfth lunar month before handing over the task.

Everyone is happy, but people are actually very satisfied, of course this is relatively speaking.

Hongling picked a lot of sour dates and sent them to Li Xue. He also gave them to Jingchu with a red face.

"Li Xue, I don't like to eat sour things." Before Jingchu could refuse, Hongling ran away.

"Save it for you, I don't like the sourness."

The two continued to cut down branches. "We cut so many, how can we get them back?"

"I don't know, I'll ask later."

The two of them just wanted to cut them first.

Guodong and Zhao Xiaoqiang also buried their heads in cutting branches and could not do anything else. They finally understood that Village Chief Li asked everyone to go up the mountain, but in fact he was cutting wood.

The brother and sister were not far away, and they met in a while, "Brother, I have cut so many, how can I transport them back down the mountain?"

"Why should Xiaoqiang and I go back first?"

"May I?"

"It should be OK. We are not going up the mountain, but Village Chief Li should ignore it when he goes down the mountain."

"Okay, you can carry these branches to school first. Aunt Jiang's wood-room is full."

"It's OK." Guodong understood what his sister meant. They were not villagers in this village, but they were teaching in other village schools and did not ask them for tuition fees. In this case, it would be reasonable to prepare more firewood.

The two girls continued to cut down the branches. After Guodong and the others came back, they tied the branches into bundles.

"Brother, Xiaoqiang, let's have a meal first.

Li Xue, are you with us? We want to make a fire."

"Okay, I can eat hot food." To be honest, Li Xue has never done such a tiring job. She looks like Jingchu is not fatter than herself, but she is much more powerful than herself.

Guodong picked up dry firewood and lit it with hay.

Put bread and pancakes on branches, and wait until the fire no longer smokes, then the exam begins.

Qu Xiaoli brought pancakes for several children, so she put them together to bake them. The bread is easier to bake. Jingchu handed one to Li Xue, "Try it, this is the bread made by Aunt Jiang. It is sweet and delicious, and it is all good things."

Li Xue had already smelled the sweet smell. She took it, broke a piece and put it in her mouth, "Well, it tastes so delicious, as sweet as she smells."

The four people gathered together, and at this time many children also learned from them and lit the fire.

Although they all want to eat bread, no children come here to ask for it, even if they are swallowing their saliva.

In the first class, Zhu Mingbao told them about etiquette, righteousness, integrity and shame. So the children endured it.

Guodong discovered this situation, "Don't bake the bread, let's eat the cake."

Jingchu also reacted, put away the bread, sat by the fire waiting for the pancakes to be heated.

After dinner, Jingchu took out another pottery jar, put it in it, and put it directly into the fire, so that she could drink hot water.

After drinking the water, after a while, Guodong and Xiaoqiang began to carry branches down again.

When Li Yunqiang sent his prey down the mountain, he saw Teacher Jiang's nephew carrying firewood to school and nodded in his heart. It seemed that this child was not an ignorant person.

The two carried it six times in total, "Brother, I won't cut it anymore, let's carry it back together in the end."

"Okay, let's talk to Village Chief Li."

Li Yungui had heard his younger brother tell the story of the Lu brother and sister carrying firewood to school. Looking at the sweaty young man, he sighed in his heart that he had no daughter, otherwise he would have to have such a son-in-law.

"We will go down the mountain first, so we won't come up again."

"Okay, be careful."

"Guodong, I still have a lot of branches here. Can we four of us carry it?"

At first, Du Fengying followed the women in the village to look for fungus and mushrooms, but there were really very few, so she finally chopped wood.

"Aunt Du, if I don't have it, I'll come again."

"No, I'll carry more, we'll get it back, right? Where did you carry this firewood?"

"The school was not carried to our house."

"There is enough firewood at home, so I will be carried to school to save you from being cold during class."

Everyone around them heard their words clearly, and their favor for these outsiders increased rapidly.

In the end, there were still some left. Jingchu wanted to recite more, but Guodong refused. "Okay, you guys go back, I'll carry the rest back to school." Li Yunqiang said with a smile.
