Li Chenmo took out half of the things from the bamboo baskets and said, "Second brother, if you go to our father’s house, help me deliver these. I will go back first."
Li Lingyun looked at the grains and fruits and nodded, "Alright."
Ten minutes later, Li Chenmo opened the door to the backyard and walked in while carrying the bamboo baskets. Just as he put down the bamboo baskets, Dong Li came over.
"Father, you are back," he walked over and handed a glass of water to his father.
Li Chenmo wiped the sweat from his forehead, drank the water, and asked, "Xiao Li, where is your mother?"
"Mother is teaching Xiao Huang in the bedroom," Dong Li said as he took the glass and placed it in the kitchen.
Li Chenmo went to wash off the dirt on his face, hands, and feet, while Dong Li took out the things in the bamboo basket.
When he saw the half-processed grain, he asked, "Father, when will you go to the mountains again?"
"I will go to the mountain again tomorrow. The food in the mountains needs to be harvested before the weather changes. Do you want to go with me?" Li Chenmo asked.
Dong Li nodded and asked, "Father, can I take Jianmin with us?"
Although he discovered this place, Li Chenmo never thought that the food grown in the mountains belonged to him.
So, he nodded and said, "He can join us. Just prepare a shoulder pole, hemp rope, and thick cloth. You don’t want to bruise your shoulder after using the shoulder pole."
Dong Li hesitated for a moment and then asked again, "Father, can Jianmin join us in our training?"
Hearing this, Li Chenmo raised his eyebrows. He knew the kids were closer than before. But he never expected that his son would plan so much for Chen Jianmin.
Because this was the first time his son had asked him for a favor, he didn’t want to disappoint his son. After all, one more person doesn’t make any difference. As for what Chen Jianmin can learn from him, it depends on himself.
He nodded and said, "Your friend can participate in our training. However, once he starts training, he is not allowed to stop midway. So, you must let him know in advance."
Dong Li’s eyes lit up when he heard this and said, "Thank you, Father."
Li Chenmo patted his son’s head and continued working. The grain would need to be dried in the sun tomorrow, so they moved it to the woodshed first.
As for potatoes and honey sweet potatoes, they can be stored directly in underground warehouses. For corn, they clean off the husks and silks, then tie up the stalks and hang them on beams to dry.
Lu Jueyu came to the backyard when they had just finished hanging the last corn.
