    He Fan shook his head and let these two guys go crazy. He carried the hoe and told Chen Yu'er behind him:

    ¡°Follow closely and watch your feet, it¡¯s very slippery here!¡±

    "Okay, Master!"

    After saying that, He Fan took the hoe and launched an attack on the bamboo shoots that had just emerged.

    There is something very particular about digging bamboo shoots. Although the bamboo shoots that emerge at this time can still be called spring bamboo shoots, it is already late spring after all, so they are a relatively late batch of bamboo shoots.

    Some bamboo shoots have been buried for too long. Even if they emerge after a spring rain last night, I¡¯m afraid they won¡¯t taste so fresh when they are dug out!

    ¡°Master, there are bamboo shoots here, shall we dig them up?¡±

    As soon as Chen Yuer entered the bamboo forest, she pointed at a thick bamboo shoot that had risen seven or eight centimeters from the ground and asked He Fan.

    He Fan shook his head ruthlessly!

    The bamboo shoots dug before the first lunar month are called winter bamboo shoots.

    The bamboo shoots that grow from the first lunar month to the Qingming Festival are called spring bamboo shoots, while the bamboo shoots that grow from the Qingming Festival to the Beginning of Summer are called spring bamboo shoots.

    Those are the bamboo shoots that He Fan wants to dig!

    However, He Fan would not dig up those bamboo shoots that had already popped up from the soil. These bamboo shoots would turn green and become more lignified, and the meat would be a little too old and the flavor would be poor.  Quite a difference!

    The bamboo shoots that Chen Yu'er pointed to had some withered yellow on the outside, indicating that the lignification of the meat inside the bamboo shoots was extremely high. If you dig them out and take them home and make them into dishes, you might not even be able to cook them until they are chewed.  One bite can fill your mouth with bamboo shavings!

    "You'd better keep that root and wait until it grows into a bamboo!"

    After hearing what He Fan said, Chen Yuer was a little disappointed. She knew she had made a joke and lowered her head in silence. However, she was not discouraged. She pointed to a bamboo shoot that had just sprouted two or three centimeters and asked:

    "Master, can this bamboo shoot be dug?"

    He Fan looked at it and shook his head ruthlessly.

    It¡¯s not that he meant to criticize Chen Yuer.

    The bamboo shoot she was pointing to was usually quite acceptable to dig up and eat, but there was just a spring rain last night, and there were still a lot of top quality ones buried under this bamboo forest.

    Those that are still buried under the ground but show signs of emerging from the soil are the best spring bamboo shoots!

    Because the bamboo shoots buried in the soil are covered with yellow mud, they are generally called "yellow beards" in the countryside. Only these yellow beard bamboo shoots still hidden in the soil are He Fan's target!

    With this kind of top quality, you must be digging for the top quality!

    But digging out these yellow bamboo shoots requires another test of skill. These yellow bamboo shoots are buried underground. How to accurately find the location of the yellow bamboo shoots is a technical task!

    At the moment, He Fan bent down and carefully searched the bamboo forest ground. After walking around for a while, he discovered something.

    Chen Yuer, who was following He Fan, suddenly became interested when she saw her master stop.

    He knew that his master must have made a discovery, so he hurried over to take a look!

    As a result, He Fan grabbed him. Just when Chen Yu'er was confused, He Fan's voice sounded:

    ¡°Be careful where you step, don¡¯t step on your first harvest today!¡±

    Chen Yuer quickly took a look at the bottom of her feet, and sure enough she saw a slight crack in the soil. Chen Yuer also asked:

    "Master, are the bamboo shoots down here?"

    He Fan also nodded, put the hoe down from his shoulder, and started digging carefully!

    Such inconspicuous cracks often have the best yellow bamboo shoots underneath. Because the bamboo shoots are full of rainwater and grow rapidly, this is what makes a crack in the ground!

    Sure enough, after gently digging up the soil layer with the hoe, I saw a spring bamboo shoot lying quietly in the soil.

    Judging from the emerald green outside, this bamboo shoot is absolutely fresh and tender!

    "Master, dig in quickly!"

    Chen Yuer was even more anxious than He Fan, wishing that she could get started with the hoe on her shoulders, but He Fan would naturally ignore this little girl!

    Finding bamboo shoots requires skill, but digging them is not simple. The most important thing is which direction to dig them from.

    The bamboo shoots must be straight, and the bamboo shoots are also straight, so the place where it connects to the bamboo whip is directly below the bamboo shoots. For such bamboo shoots, it is easier to dig under it.

    The bamboo shoots with curved whiskers, the shoot body is also curved, which side the whiskers head is facing, and the location where the bamboo shoots and the bamboo whip are connected.?Also on which side, if you dig such a bamboo shoot from the side with the whisker head facing, it is easy to find the place where the bamboo shoot and the bamboo whip are connected.

    "If you don't follow this rule when digging bamboo shoots, like Chen Yu'er, who comes up and uses a big hoe to greet you, I'm afraid all the good bamboo shoots will be ruined.

    If the bamboo shoot meat is stained with soil, the flavor will be greatly reduced, so the gain outweighs the loss!

    Fortunately, the bamboo shoots in front of me have straight shoots, making them easy to dig out!

    He Fan used a hoe to cut off the connection between the bamboo shoot and the bamboo whip, and gave the first harvest of the day to Chen Yu'er!

    Chen Yu'er held this spring bamboo shoot and couldn't put it down and played with it for a while before carefully putting it into the small basket on her back.

    She has never seen such freshly dug bamboo shoots!

    With the first delivery, He Fan was in a good mood. It was a good start, and he led Chen Yu'er to bend down and continue searching!

    After taking just two steps, He Fan stopped again.

    There was an unusual protrusion on the ground in front of him, like a small bulge. There must be bamboo shoots under it!

    ¡°Just excavate and that¡¯s it!¡±

    Because the soil quality may be different in different places in the bamboo forest, some places where the soil is hardened will be cracked by the rain-saturated bamboo shoots.

    But some soft places will have protrusions like this, so you can¡¯t just ignore them!

    The hoe came up and with three strokes, the dirt on the bulge was peeled away. Sure enough, there was a bamboo shoot underneath.

    After judging the direction of the bamboo shoots, I used a hoe to dig out the bamboo shoots!

    "Let's live together!"

    He Fan simply threw the bamboo shoot into Chen Yuer's basket, and He Fan started digging for bamboo shoots again.

    The third root, the fourth root!

    He Fan dug out the best yellow bamboo shoots one by one.

    In the end, even the little girl Chen Yuer figured out some patterns and found the location of a yellow bamboo shoot.

    "Master, master, come quickly! There are bamboo shoots here!"

    Chen Yuer was not far away from He Fan, pointing at a protrusion on the ground and yelling.

    He Fan had no choice but to walk over with a hoe. Not to mention, this little girl really had two brushes. She really found a bamboo shoot!

    Seeing Chen Yuer¡¯s excitement, He Fan felt funny in his heart. He passed the hoe forward and said:

    "What's the matter, you come to dig?"

    Seeing this, Chen Yu'er was eager to try. She took the hoe and followed He Fan's example, carefully removing the soil layer. Finally, following the method taught by He Fan to identify the direction of bamboo shoots, she separated the roots of the bamboo shoots from the bamboo whip.  I dug a bamboo shoot myself!

    This time, she was extremely happy.

    Holding the bamboo shoot in her hands, she refused to put it in the basket despite any words. She insisted on holding it by herself, and He Fan had no choice but to let her do it!

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? out of a basket on Chen Yuer¡¯s back, there was already half a basket full of bamboo shoots. There were more than 20 bamboo shoots, enough to last two or three days.

    Such fresh bamboo shoots can only be kept for so long after being dug out. No matter how much you dig out, it will be wasted if you can¡¯t finish them all, so He Fan decided to give up and carry these bamboo shoots down the mountain.

    ¡°I don¡¯t know where these two guys Dahuang and Xiaojin have gone!¡±

    He Fan was muttering, thinking about shouting to call these two guys back, when he heard the Dahuang guy shouting.

    This guy returned with Xiao Jin on his back. These two guys obviously had a good time, just look at the dirt on them!

    He Fan was about to invite these two guys to go down the mountain and go home together, but his attention was attracted by Xiao Jin on Dahuang¡¯s back holding something he was chewing! (Remember this site¡¯s website address: www.hlnovel.com
