Chen Wanbai raised his head and looked at the sky, realizing that it was almost noon, and thought that Wan Chaogui would be back soon.
Then, she slowly stood up and walked down the mountain.
Chen Wanbai hurried down the mountain and saw Mrs. Liu standing at the door of her house.
"Xiaobai, Wan Orion has just arrived and said that you have something to do with him. I don't know what's the matter with you, and you're not here yet, so I asked him to go back first."
p>
Liu is a widow and Wan Chaogui is a grown man. They are not suitable to stay with others, even at home. If someone saw it, there would be no explanation.
"How long?" Chen Wanbai asked.
"Just left for a while."
As soon as Chen Wanbai heard this, he ran towards Wan Chaogui's house without saying a word.
Sure enough, before running very far, he saw Wan Chaogui's figure from a distance.
She sped up and ran all the way, finally catching up with Wan Chaogui when he was approaching home.
"Uncle Wan, wait!" Chen Wanbai stopped, held his thighs with both hands, bent down and gasped for air.
Wan Chaogui turned around when he heard the voice and saw it was her.
"Why didn't you call me earlier? I could hear you louder."
Only then did Chen Wanbai realize, indeed, why was he so stupid?
She calmed her breathing slightly and said slowly: "Uncle Wan, I want to trouble you again. Please help me chop down some trees. I still need a lot of wood. I will return You calculate the wages."
Wan Chaogui couldn't help but smile when he saw the little man in front of him acting like a serious adult.
Then he thought for a moment, and then said: "Okay, but are you in a hurry? If not, I will go over and help you chop down the tree tomorrow afternoon."
< p> When Chen Wanbai heard what he said, he thought he had something to do, so he felt a little embarrassed: "If Uncle Wan doesn't have time, forget it. I'll ask Uncle Daniu and the others. Before, I considered that they were too far away. "It's not convenient to go back and forth, so I'll ask you first.""Well, it's not like I don't have time. Aren't there more animals in the mountains these days? I want to go hunting in the morning." Wan Chaogui explained, and then asked, "By the way, have you had a good harvest recently? That bamboo rat is really big."
Qinghuai Mountain is quite big, so even if both of them are on the mountain, Hunting does not cause conflict, and after Chen Wanbai knew where Wan Chaogui often went, he did not go to those places, but chose other directions.
Chen Wanbai then remembered that when he went up the mountain recently, he did feel that there were obviously more animals, and sometimes he could even see traces of large animals. At this moment, hearing Wan Chaogui say this again, he probably knew the reason.
So, she asked curiously: "Uncle Wan, why have there been more animals in the mountains recently?"
"This is because winter is coming, and these animals need to come out to stock up on what they need for the winter. Food, so they come out more frequently."
Chen Wanbai nodded in realization. She actually forgot that most animals hibernate, and in winter, food will become scarce. .
"That's it. No wonder I said that I can hunt small animals recently. I thought it was because my hunting skills have improved."
After saying that, she hurriedly Then he asked: "Uncle Wan, is this a good time for hunting?"
Wan Chaogui touched his chin, then nodded and said: "Well, that's right. Although animals nowadays It’s a bit more, but you can catch it, which shows that your skills have indeed improved.”

Chen Wanbai grinned, showing his neat teeth and asked: "Uncle Wan, you hunted in the morning and came to help me cut down trees in the afternoon. Wouldn't this be a waste of your time?"
p>
Wan Chaogui waved his hand and said with a hearty smile: "Haha, no, those prey will not dare to move in this area for almost a morning. If it goes further, it will be inconvenient for me to go back and forth."
"Are you too tired like this?" Chen Wanbai continued to ask.
"Hey, don't worry about your uncle. Look at my bones. They are strong." As he said this, Wan Chaogui patted his strong chest.
"That's good, Uncle Wan, thank you so much! I also want to finish these things before winter." Chen Wanbai smiled brightly at this time, like an innocent child Similar.
The two talked for a while. Chen Wanbai felt that everything that needed to be said had been made clear, so he said goodbye to Wan Chaogui.
She walked quickly back home, but before she reached the door, Ms. Liu came to greet her.
"Xiao Bai, what do you want to eat for lunch?"
Chen Wanbai walked towards the place where the bamboos were stacked and responded casually: "There is no need to cook for lunch, yesterday I've taken care of that bamboo rat, just blanch it and eat it with a pancake."
Eating is a waste of time, so she should hurry up and work.
After saying that, she moved a stone, sat on it, picked up a piece of bamboo and started working on it.
The bamboo used to make water pipes must be unblocked throughout, so she needs to use tools to open up every joint of the bamboo.
Mrs. Liu looked at Chen Wanbai's busy figure, shook her head helplessly, and turned around to bake pancakes for her.
The tool used to process bamboo joints was also specially customized by Lao Zhengtou. It's an iron tip, installed and fixedOn top of a long and extremely hard thin wood.
Lift and secure one end of the bamboo to make it easier to work with.
Then, she picked up the slender tool, inserted it into one end of the bamboo, and then began to stab the inside of the bamboo hard, using this method to break through the bamboo joints.
As she poked hard again and again, the inside of the bamboo made a muffled sound. Every time she breaks through a bamboo knot, she has to pause for a moment, take a breath, and then continue to work on the next bamboo knot.
Sweat gradually soaked her clothes, but she didn't care, she just wanted to finish it quickly.
This is not complicated work, just physical work. It didn't take long for a bamboo to be completely opened.
Chen Wanbai put down his tools, wiped the sweat from his face, looked through the holes in the bamboo, and nodded with satisfaction.
Then, she picked up another bamboo and repeated the action just now.
"Xiao Bai, take a rest for a while and have something to eat." Ms. Liu slowly walked over with a plate of pancakes.
Only then did Chen Wanbai stop what he was busy doing, walked aside and washed his hands, then reached out and grabbed a pancake and started to bite it.
It tastes really bad.
This is what she is thinking in her heart at this moment.
Probably to satisfy people, Liu’s pancakes are very solid.
