Chapter 57: Dig winter bamboo shoots

Just like hearing the news by chance, she was shocked for days and nights without closing her eyes. In the end, she was still timid and afraid to say anything, which caused the current situation.
Think back then, she and Tian, ​​hey
The pain and burden in the heart are also caused by oneself. She can't blame anyone.
Gu Xiaowan took her younger brothers and sisters to the bamboo forest soon. The sun hasn't risen, and the bamboo forest is still a bit cold, but Gu Xiaowan doesn't care about this, it will definitely get hot when he digs bamboo shoots.
She put the basket aside, took the hoe, and started teaching her brothers and sisters to find bamboo shoots in the thick layer of bamboo leaves.
"Bamboo shoots are called "winter bamboo shoots" before they are unearthed, and "chunsun" after they are unearthed. The winter bamboo shoots we are going to dig now all grow in the ground and will not emerge. If they are not dug out, they will rot in the soil next year. "Gu Xiaowan said as she took her brothers and sisters to search.
"Sister, winter bamboo shoots grow in the soil, how did we find them?" Gu Ningping was anxious when he heard that winter bamboo shoots grew in the ground. Yesterday, I heard from my sister that winter bamboo shoots are shoot buds developed from bamboo whip side buds underground. But the bamboo whip buried underground in this bamboo garden is like a dense spider web, and not every bamboo whip will grow winter bamboo shoots on it.
Everyone is here to dig bamboo shoots. If it grows in the ground, how can you see it? Do you dug all this bamboo forest? Such a large bamboo forest is just to find winter bamboo shoots, and it shouldn't be exhausted.
"Good question!" After hearing Gu Ningping's words, Gu Xiaowan said the key point, and praised: "Yesterday my sister didn't tell you how to dig, because she said that no matter how much practice it is, she is just talking about it. Today, her sister told you how to find winter bamboo shoots. It’s up to me. I’m my sister, so I’ll have more strength. You are responsible for finding it."
Then teach them that in the bamboo forest, if the ground soil is found to be loose or cracked, the crack has a center and extends to the surroundings. When the soil is soft when you step on it with your foot, there must be winter bamboo shoots here. Just gently pound the soil away a little bit. You can see the tips of winter bamboo shoots inside.
As Gu Xiaowan spoke, she saw a crack in a piece of the ground, which was loose in the middle. Gu Xiaowan hurriedly pulled the loose soil with her hands. As expected, before pulling twice, she saw a sharp bamboo shoot in the middle of the crack.
"Sister, really!" Gu Ningan said excitedly, unable to conceal his emotions.
"Yes, you can look around to see if there is any loose soil, you can pull it out, and remove all the bamboo leaves around, leave it there, and I will dig it later." Gu Xiaowan hasn't finished. , The three people were divided into two sides and acted separately. Gu Xiaowan waved his and dug not far from the bamboo shoots.
In her previous life, Gu Xiaowan liked to dig bamboo shoots with her grandfather. These methods of digging bamboo shoots were all taught by grandpa.
Gu Xiaowan waved the hoe, then waved the about 20 centimeters away from the tip of the bamboo shoot, and pulled it up forcefully.
Winter bamboo shoots are difficult to dig. You have to keep digging out the periphery of the bamboo shoots and dig a hole beside the center of the bamboo shoots. You have to wait until the bamboo whip is found before it is dug to the end, and then chop them off on the bamboo whip.
If the is accidentally swung on the bamboo shoot, the bamboo shoot will be incomplete.
The upper parts are all young shoots, which have not grown, and the taste is not very good. The best essence is at the bottom. Therefore, when digging bamboo shoots, you must have patience and endurance. You must also wield your well. You must use skillful strength, not brute force.
If you don't dig deep, you can easily damage the bamboo shoots. It is impossible to dig a whole bamboo shoot if it is half-half. In that case, the bamboo shoots that were dug out would not be clean when soiled on them.

Gu Xiaowan is a good farmer. When she was young, she liked to follow her grandfather and did farm work constantly. When she grew up, she was a top student in the agricultural department.
So she is very good at farming.
It's just that Gu Xiaowan's physical strength is too weak. The person is small and has no strength in his hands. After a few strokes of the hoe, he feels sore palms and a little pain in his arms.
But when I think of staying, I have bamboo shoots and pickles to eat at noon. Jin came up again.
It took about a quarter of an hour before Gu Xiaowan dug out the bamboo shoot. The appearance is smooth and tender yellow.
Winter bamboo shoots are not as thick and strong as spring bamboo shoots, but they taste better than spring bamboo shoots more than one or two times.
Because winter bamboo shoots have not been unearthed yet, their bamboo shoots are young and tender, white as jade, with pure fragrance and rich nutrition.
After digging up the first bamboo shoot, Gu Xiaowan excitedly raised the bamboo shoot and shouted three younger siblings: "Let's come and see, I dug up the first bamboo shoot."
Gu Ning'an and Gu Ningping heard their sister's cry, and immediately ran over with a cry. Gu Xiaoyi also excitedly followed step by step. While running, shouting: "Sister, let me see!"
When the three younger brothers and sisters ran over, all of them stared at the tender yellow bamboo shoot in the hands of the sister.
They were all a little excited: "Sister, these winter bamboo shoots are small and small, so cute!"
Winter bamboo shoots are not only cute, but they also taste good!
Gu Xiaowan said: "Winter bamboo shoots are recognized as the queen of bamboo shoots. Compared with spring bamboo shoots, their meat is tenderer, more nutritious, and tastes more delicious. It is known as the "first product of vegetable food"!"
"Sister, all my saliva fell off of what you said." Gu Ningping swallowed and touched his head, a little shy and embarrassed.
"It's okay, I will go back and fry you a plate, and keep it so that you can't put down the bowl. Okay, don't go around talking, please hurry up and find it separately!
Gu Ning'an is the most stable eldest son of the three younger siblings. He carefully thought about the way his sister taught them to find winter bamboo shoots. He picked up a small piece of bamboo on the ground and used it as a tool to move it around on the ground.
In places where the soil is relatively soft, Gu Ning'an will carefully pull and pull with his hands.
Gu Ning'an found the second bamboo shoot.
"Sister, come here, there is also a tree here." Gu Ningan called.
