Jixiang walked around the mountain but couldn't find Li Yu, so he caught a few pheasants and hares and carried them back home. Returning home, he reported to Zhou Jiaxun: "Master, I have searched everywhere but I have not found Miss Li. I have caught a few pheasants and hares. Where can I look for a mountain as big as yours?"

Zhou Jia took out the Art of Qi Min and placed it in front of Ji Xiang, "I already know what the Camellia oleifera tree looks like. Do you still remember the water pool we saw when collecting medicine last year? The Camellia oleifera tree is just a little past the water pool. "

Jixiang glanced at the painting in the book and felt that he didn't understand what it was about. "Remember! Should I go again now?"

Zhou Jia smiled and shook his head, "No need. When you go up the mountain, Miss Li will come back. I will go with you tomorrow morning."

Ji Xiang looked at Zhou Jia in confusion, "Master, are you really going to help Miss Li pick camellia oleifera fruits?"

Zhou Jia nodded, imitating Li Yu's way of rolling his eyes, "What's wrong? Can't I go?"

Jixiang looked at Zhou Jia with his eyes widened, "Yes, yes." Jixiang bent over and retreated, muttering to himself, "Oh! Something seems really wrong with the young master."

Li Yu returned home carrying the camellia seeds. Qian had already put the soapnuts into the house. Seeing that Li Yu had arrived home, she finally felt relieved. Qian pointed to the lime placed under the eaves and said, "Xiaoyu, you Look, I’ve already bought the lime, so you can come back early when you go up the mountain, as the weather is cooler and there are more wild animals.”

"I know Aunt Qian, I hunted a wild boar and put it at Uncle He's house to be groomed. I'll go get the meat back."

Li Yu took the bamboo basket to the back of the forest, took out the wild boar from the space and carried it towards He Butcher's house. Then he remembered that there were two wild deer in the space, and thought that he would find a day to send one to the town. Members outside the family.

When Li Yu arrived at Butcher He's house, Xiaoyu opened the door and laughed when she saw the wild boar Li Yu was carrying, "Sister Xiaoyu, why are the wild boars you hunt getting bigger each time?"

Li Yu glanced at the wild boar placed on the chopping board, "Yeah! Not to mention it's getting bigger every time."

Butcher He walked out of the house with a butcher's knife and a young man who looked like an iron tower. He looked at the wild boar on the chopping board and laughed and said, "Xiaoyu, I'm afraid the one you killed this time is about three hundred." It’s a pound!”

"Uncle He, it's so late and I have to trouble you again."

"Why bother? You are taking care of my business!" Butcher He handed the knife to Tie Zhu, "Tie Zhu, you come today."

Xiaoyu glanced at Tiezhu, then turned to look at Li Yu with a smile, "Sister Xiaoyu, this is my brother He Tiezhu. Look, it looks like an iron pillar!"

"Xiaoyu, you want to be beaten, right?" He Tiezhu said with a blushing face.

"Mom, you see I'm going to hit you." Xiaoyu said coquettishly to Mr. Huang who came out with a wooden basin. Mrs. Huang tapped Xiaoyu's forehead and said, "Crazy girl, you are not afraid that your sister Xiaoyu will laugh at you."

Xiaoyu pulled Huang's sleeve, "Sister Xiaoyu won't laugh at me!"

He Tiezhu was quick with his hands and feet, and he beat out the wild boar in a short time. Li Yu left half of the meat and suet, and gave the rest of the meat to butcher He to help sell it, and went home carrying the meat on his back.

After Li Yu left. Butcher He avoided his son and said to Huang, "Mother, do you think Xiaoyu is good?"

Mrs. Huang frowned, "She is quite capable and well-groomed, but I don't like the fact that she has no father or mother. Let's talk about it later!"

Xiaoyu curled her lips and glanced at Huang, "Mom, you don't like it yet, I don't think my brother is good enough for Sister Xiaoyu."

Mrs. Huang patted her with a dark face, "You little girl, who would like to find a wife who has no father or mother? I won't say whether she has a good upbringing or not. I don't like people who are in public all day long."

Butcher He patted the chopping board impatiently, "Okay, don't mention this matter anymore. Let Xiaoyu know how we can get along with each other in the future."

"Didn't you mention it first?" Huang curled her lips and returned to the house with the wooden basin.

Li Yu carried the meat back home and took a leg of meat and a piece of suet, and handed them to Li Qing who was reading a book, "Ah Qing, send the wild boar meat to my aunt."

Li Qing looked at the pig leg Li Yu was carrying, "Sister, isn't wild boar meat very good? This wild boar is really fat."

Li Yu took a piece of meat weighing three to four kilograms and handed it to Xiao An, "Yeah! It's quite fat. You wait for Xiao An to leave together, and I'll ask him to send a piece to Uncle Chen."

Li Qing smiled and said to Li Yu: "Sister, give one to my husband too!"

"Take it!" Li Yu handed him another piece, and the two of them left with the meat.

Li Yu heated up the peppercorns, salt and bay leaves, spread them on the meat and marinated them in a basin. He also took two pig's trotters, burned them over fire and chopped them into small pieces in a stew pot.

Qian took the finished cotton skirt and coat to the kitchen and said, "Xiaoyu, look how beautiful this purple dress is! Xiaoyu, you are good-looking, and you dress in an old-fashioned way all day long. They are all dressed in an old-fashioned way.”

Li Yu looked at the dress in Qian's hand and smiled, "The color is not resistant to stains. You can put it there for me to wear when I have free time. Aunt Qian, do you think there are still a few days before the rapeseed can be transplanted?" ?”

Qian smiled and said, "In four or five days, it should be fine."

Li Yu made an estimate in his mind and felt that all the camellia oleifera fruits should be picked back by then.

Li Yu went to the vegetable field and pulled out two radishes, cut two green onions and coriander and took them home. Qian quickly took them and took them to the well to clean them. When Li Qing and Xiao An came back, they had eaten. Li Yu I took a piece of meat to Qian, and the mother and son took it home.

Early the next morning, Li Yu took a sack and a bamboo pole on his back, and walked up the mountain with the seasoning bag. Just after he turned a corner and passed the house of Butcher He, he heard someone shouting from behind, "Miss Li, Miss Li, wait a minute."

Li Yu looked back and saw that it was Ji Xiang and Mr. Zhou. Li Yu felt a little strange. What were these two people doing up the mountain so early in the morning? You almost died on the mountain last time, aren't you still afraid?

Ji Xiang and Zhou Jia caught up with Li Yu. Li Yu saw Zhou Jia's rosy face after he left quickly, and thought to himself: He looks really evil. What does a man do to be so good-looking?

Zhou Jia looked at Li Yu and smiled and held his hands, "Miss Li, I heard that you are going to pick camellia oleifera fruits. I have only seen camellia oleifera trees in books. I want to go see the real camellia oleifera trees with you, okay?"

Li Yu was almost blinded by Zhou Jia's laughter. He turned his head and said, "If you want to go, just follow him!" Li Yu sighed in his heart, only because he was so good-looking that he couldn't bear to reject him.

Li Yu pursed his lips and turned to look at Zhou Jia, "Mr. Zhou, can you bear the long journey up the mountain?"

Zhou Jia took two steps to catch up with Li Yu, with a smile on his face, "Miss Li, look at what you said, why can't you bear this little road?"

Ji Xiang looked at Zhou Jia with a bright smile, and lamented in his heart: It's over, it's over, it seems that the young master really wants to save his life.

Ji Xiang followed the two of them silently. Li Yu found it strange why this talkative man was silent today.

When they arrived at the tea forest, Li Yu pointed at the camellia oleifera trees and said, "Mr. Zhou, these are all camellia oleifera trees. You don't think they are worth seeing!"

Of course Zhou Jia knew in her heart that the tea tree was not worth seeing much, but it was so beautiful!

"Miss Li, we're all here, so let's help you pick the tea fruits before we go back!"

Li Yu looked at Zhou Jia's thin skin and tender flesh with a suspicious look on his face, "Can you do it?"

Zhou Jia spread his hands and smiled, "You should still be able to pick fruits."

"Okay then!" Li Yu pointed to the tea fruits that you ripened first, "You two pick those that are red and yellow in color and are ripe."

Zhou Jia nodded and picked it up with Jixiang. Seeing that the two of them were doing things neatly, Li Yu ignored them and walked to a place a little far away from the two of them and started to pick, filling the sack while the two were not paying attention. He quickly put it into the space and started picking fruits again.
