Chapter 245 I Want to Dig Some Spring Bamboo Shoots

The old lady gave the old man a cold look and said slowly:

"Why are you in such a hurry? Maybe you saw it wrong!"

"How is that possible? I saw him staring at the shelf, and then he did this for a long time..."

The old lady looked at her husband's incoherent appearance and said helplessly:

"So what? Maybe it's your grandson who wants the shelf. It's not a valuable item. Otherwise, you can dig it out for him.

I guess my grandson just wanted to take a look. He might as well have one when he grows grapes in the future. If he wants it, let him take it with him when he leaves.

You are an old man, and you are still making a fuss every day. Anyway, I didn’t see it…”

After perfunctorily answering the old man, the old grandmother went to the kitchen with a smile on her face. After all, the food brought by her grandson had to be hidden first.

The old man thought it made sense, and under the stunned gaze of the old lady, he picked up the hoe and started digging.

After digging twice, he thought that if his grandson didn't want it, it would be a waste of time, so he had to go and ask him first. He hurried out with the shovel, and the old lady who came out of the kitchen sighed...

Zhang Xingwang walked all the way to the foot of the mountain and picked up an unknown small tree. He planned to do an experiment first and tried to harvest it using the planting space, but failed...

Then he took out San Ye's knife and started chopping down the small tree as thick as his wrist. After chopping it off in a few strokes, he put it into the planting space, planted it on the ground, and observed it carefully for a while.

Then I used my mind to feel it and it was obvious that the tree had lost its vitality. After thinking about it, I guess it must have roots.

After thinking about it, I ran to the bamboo forest and started digging. If I want to make use of the height of the space, I have to find a tree that doesn’t take up much space and is tall. Bamboo is the best option for now...

After digging twice, he felt that his brain was not enough recently, so he put down the shovel and started to collect the bamboos that had just grown on the land using the storage space, just like fishing.

In just a short while, four large pits more than one person deep appeared neatly on the ground, and the edges were filled with soil released from the space.

In this way, Zhang Xingwang unlocked another way to use space to dig traps. Looking at the four small bamboos planted in the space, he felt satisfied.

I just used the collection function more than ten times in a row, and I felt a little dizzy. When I took out a bottle of soda from the space and wanted to take a break, I heard footsteps next to me.

Zhang Xingwang looked back and saw the old man holding a shovel and staring at the soda in his hand in amazement. Then he looked at the high mounds of earth next to the pits and rubbed his eyes vigorously...

Zhang Xingwang hurried over to the old man when he saw this. While he was distracted, he secretly filled the pit with the dirt behind him, and then said as if nothing had happened:

"Grandpa, why are you here? Are you thirsty? Would you like some soda?"

The old man stared blankly at the soda his grandson handed over, took it unconsciously, and then pointed at the earth pit behind Zhang Xingwang and said:

"Xingwang, what are you doing?"

"Um... I wanted to dig some bamboo shoots, but obviously I didn't find any..."

Listening to his grandson's words, the old man looked over at the several half-man-deep earth pits and the obviously much shorter earth piles next to them, rubbed his eyes vigorously, and said in a trembling voice:

"You... are indeed in much better shape. And... I didn't expect you to be so efficient at work."

After figuring out the old man's purpose, Zhang Xingwang coaxed the old man who had been rubbing his eyes to go home. The old man did finish the soda, but it seemed that he didn't taste it...

When I got back, I saw Uncle Yougen chatting with the old lady in the yard. After seeing the grandfather and grandson come back, he left in a flash.

The old man looked at a few grape branches with roots, which were wrapped with soil, and said that they were from the family at the end of the village and were the most delicious.

After that, he lay down to rest, mumbling that he had not been feeling well recently and his eyesight was blurry...

While it was still early, Zhang Xingwang thought of stopping by his aunt's place and asking Old Man Zhang for some medicine.

I told the old couple that I would go back to the city directly from my aunt's house tomorrow and would visit them next time. Then I set off.

The old couple watched their grandson walk away, and the old man helplessly prepared to plant the half-dug wooden frame back.

After doing it for a few times, he said to the old lady who was still looking at her grandson:

“I went to the foot of the mountain to look for my grandson and saw that he had dug several large holes.

"Why are you digging a hole? Didn't you help dig it? My grandson has never worked before, so don't let him get tired."

"It's not a matter of digging a hole, it's about that hole..."

"Don't worry about the pit. Why did your grandson dig a pit?"

"They said they were going to dig some spring bamboo shoots to eat, but the main thing was that they were cheating..."

"Oh, you two came back empty-handed, so you didn't dig anything? Don't worry about the pit, dig some bamboo shoots for your grandson tomorrow. I think my good grandson wants to eat some, so ask the old man to send it over."

"It's not that pit..."

Before the old man could finish his words, he watched the old lady go into the kitchen, and hurriedly chased after her, then he was completely paralyzed.

"Where did this oil and flour come from? Um...why is there wild boar meat?"

"Of course it was sent by my dear grandson. I have followed you for nothing all my life. If it weren't for your grandson, I wouldn't be able to eat these."

"Why didn't I come in then?"

"Um... have you come in and have a look? You said yourself that your eyesight is blurry now, don't make yourself uncomfortable...

I think you should stop digging bamboo shoots. Tell Genwazi to go. You are not in good health now, your eyesight is blurry and your memory is not good. Don’t go to the mountain in the future..."

The old man lying on the kang: …………

At the dining table at my aunt's house, everyone was happily eating dinner, and my cousin and his wife were showing off the soda that Zhang Xingwang brought.

The uncle-in-law looked at his children asking Zhang Xingwang about his well-being, and asked with a heavy expression and unwillingness:

"The old man really didn't come?"

After hearing this, the aunt replied angrily and amusedly:

"Xingwang can't lie to you. You just went out to look for a long time. But why do you suddenly miss the old man?"

"The old man promised me before that he would try his best to come with... Xingwang..."

"Grandpa's memory isn't very good lately..."

After dinner, Zhang Xingwang rejected his cousin's suggestion to perform the Turtle Fist for him and went to Old Man Zhang first.

Old man Zhang looked at the sturdy Zhang Xingwang and squinted his eyes and said:

"It's late at night, can't you come tomorrow? I'll prepare the medicine tomorrow and you can come to get it in the evening."

"Can't you accompany me tonight? I plan to go back to the city at noon tomorrow."

"Don't I need to sleep? It's very hard on my eyes to prepare medicine at night. Let's go back quickly..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Old Man Zhang felt a smell of money coming towards him, and then waved his hand to indicate that his sleep quality had not been very good recently, so he might as well try doing some work to see if he could sleep more soundly.
