Chapter 57 (1/2)

As if she had heard the news by chance, she did not close her eyes for several days and nights. In the end, she was still timid and did not dare to say anything, resulting in the present situation.

Think about that time, she and Tian, ah

The bitterness in the heart and the burden in the heart are also caused by ourselves. She can't blame anyone.

Gu Xiaowan and his younger brothers and sisters soon arrived in the bamboo grove. The sun hasn't risen yet, and it's still cold in the bamboo grove, but Gu Xiaowan doesn't care. It's sure to get hot when she picks up bamboo shoots.

She put the basket aside with a hoe and began to teach her brothers and sisters to look for bamboo shoots in the thick bamboo leaves.

”Bamboo shoots are called” winter bamboo shoots ”before they are unearthed, and” spring bamboo shoots ”after they are unearthed. The winter bamboo shoots we are going to dig now grow in the ground and will not come out. If we don't dig them out, they will rot in the soil next year. ” Gu Xiaowan said while taking his younger brother and sister to look for it.

”Elder sister, winter bamboo shoots grow in the soil. How can we find them?” As soon as Gu Ningping heard that winter bamboo shoots were growing in the ground, he was in a hurry. Yesterday, I heard from my sister that winter bamboo shoots are shoots from lateral buds of bamboo rhizomes underground. But the bamboo rhizomes buried in the ground in this bamboo garden are like dense spider webs, and not every bamboo whip has winter shoots.

Everyone is here to dig bamboo shoots. If it grows in the ground, how can you see it? Do you dig all the bamboo groves? In such a large bamboo forest, it is not tiring to find winter bamboo shoots.

”Good question!” Gu Xiaowan listened to Gu Ningping's words and said, ”my sister didn't tell you how to dig yesterday. It's because saying that no matter how much you don't practice, it's all on paper.”. Today, my sister told you how to find the winter bamboo shoots. If you dig them, I'll do it. I'm my sister. I'm stronger. You are responsible for finding it. ”

Then they are taught that if the soil on the ground is loose or cracked in the bamboo forest, the crack has a center and extends all around. When you step on it, the soil is soft. There must be winter shoots here. As long as you gently peel away the soil, you can see the tip of winter bamboo shoots inside.

As Gu Xiaowan spoke, he saw a little crack on the surface of the ground, which was loose in the middle. Gu Xiaowan quickly used his hand to pick up the loose soil. As expected, before pulling it twice, he saw a sharp bamboo shoot in the middle of the crack.

”Elder sister, really have!” Gu Ning'an can't hide the emotion, said excitedly.

”Yes, you can go around to find out if there is any loose soil. Then you can pull it out and peel off all the bamboo leaves around. I'll dig it later.” Before Gu Xiaowan finished speaking, the three men divided into two sides and moved separately. Gu Xiaowan waved his hoe and dug not far from the bamboo shoot.

Gu Xiaowan liked to dig bamboo shoots with his grandfather in his previous life. These methods of digging bamboo shoots are all taught by my grandfather.

Gu Xiaowan waved his hoe, and then about 20 cm away from the bamboo shoot tip, he picked it up.

It's very difficult to dig winter bamboo shoots. You have to keep digging out the periphery of bamboo shoots and dig a hole along the center of bamboo shoots. When you find the bamboo whip, you can dig it to the end. Then you can chop them off on the bamboo whip.

If the hoe is accidentally waved on the bamboo shoot, the bamboo shoot will be incomplete.

The upper part is full of tender buds, which have not yet grown, and the taste is not very good. The best cream is at the bottom. Therefore, to dig bamboo shoots, we should have patience and endurance. We should also swing the hoe well. We should use skillful force, not fierce force.

If you don't dig deep, you will easily hurt the bamboo shoots. If the bamboo shoots are half cut, a complete bamboo shoot will not be found. In that case, the soil on the bamboo shoots dug out is not clean.
