Chapter 21 Full of Harvests
"Okay, then sister, go dig."
Erya put down Jiaojiao and asked her younger brother to take good care of her sister.
She couldn't wait to use the sickle to cut the weeds blocking the road, clearing a path, and found the herbs her little sister had mentioned. Erya happily rolled up her sleeves and dug the grass with her knife.
"Sister~ I want to dig too." Xiao Li stood on tiptoes and looked at his sister, and said eagerly.
He is very strong and can dig up a lot of herbs and sell them for money.
Jiaojiao naturally believed her little brother, smiled, took his hand and shook it, and said softly: "Brother, let's go find sister together."
She was worried whether her sister would find the right medicine.
"Well! My brother is taking his sister."
Inside, Erya was mowing the grass very quickly, and there were already several stems and leaves of Pangasius beside him.
Jiaojiao saw this scene when she walked in, and Nuosheng explained: "Sister, Tianqi's roots are buried underground, we have to dig them up."
Erya turned around quickly when she heard the little sister's voice, and was stunned again when she heard the little sister's words, "Dig the roots?"
Jiaojiao nodded and said obediently: "The roots of Tianqi are very strong and are more valuable than ordinary herbs."
Erya's eyes lit up after hearing this, and she turned back to look at the field of seven leaves. The roots are heavier than the stems and leaves, and they are more valuable than the blades of grass. There are so many here, wouldn't they be rich today!
At the thought of making money, Erya started digging roots in the ground excitedly. While digging, she called her younger brother to help, "Xiao Li, you can help sister dig too. Otherwise, we can't finish digging before dark."
."
"Okay!"
Xiao Li picked up a wooden stick nearby, swung his arms and dug in the ground, humming, faster than his sister Erya.
Jiaojiao wanted to go over and help, but was stopped by her sister, who shouted, "My dear, you are too weak to dig. Just stand there and wait for my sister to finish digging the herbs before she takes you out."
Jiaojiao looked at her little arms and legs, then stood there and said "Okay" obediently.
She looked around and could only see the towering tree in the back. Ganoderma lucidum mostly depended on the roots of the rotten tree. Jiaojiao wanted to take a look there.
She opened her mouth and said to her sister: "Sister, Jiaojiao is waiting for you outside."
Erya had already dug the roots of the tree and was happy to hear her sister's words. She quickly told her, "Jiaojiao, don't run around. If you want to drink water and go to the toilet, call sister."
"Hmm~"
The petite and short-legged man walked out and walked straight towards the big tree.
At the same time, a little bit of spiritual power emanates from closing the eyes. Ganoderma lucidum is surrounded by poisonous substances, so we must drive away those things first.
However, she couldn't feel any strange movement in her spiritual power. Jiaojiao walked towards the big tree with doubtful steps. After looking around in a circle, she found that there was no Ganoderma lucidum under the roots of the tree.
No wonder I can't feel any movement.
Helpless, Jiaojiao curled her lips in despair, just as she was about to leave.
Sisi~
There was movement in the tall jungle behind. Jiaojiao's eyes lit up and she turned around to look over there.
At this time, two thick and scary piebald snakes swam out of the grass, spitting out their snakes and making a faint sound.
Jiaojiao didn't like these poisons, so when she released her spiritual power, the two poisonous creatures were so frightened that they turned around and ran away.
Jiaojiao clapped her little hands, happily walked over, parted through the nearby jungle to search, and then found a small Ganoderma lucidum at the entrance of a hidden cave.
Jiaojiao's black eyes lit up, and she quickly took out a handkerchief to wrap the Ganoderma lucidum together with the underground soil. The Ganoderma lucidum had not fully grown yet and could still grow if planted in wet soil at home.
I got two surprises today. Her delicate white and tender little face was full of joy. She put the Ganoderma lucidum in her arms and hurried back to the place with her short legs, otherwise her sister would be worried if she couldn't see her when she came out.
Watching the sun gradually set, it is getting late.
Erya and Xiaoli came out carrying half a sack of Tianqigen. They were sweating profusely and had dirt on their cheeks. Although they were panting from exhaustion, their faces were full of smiles. They were obviously very satisfied with today's harvest.
Jiaojiao hurriedly held the cowhide water bag and handed it over. Erya and Xiaoli drank some water before they felt relieved.
Erya hugged her sensible little sister and kissed her. Seeing that the sky was getting dark, she packed her things and said, "It's getting late. Let's go home quickly, otherwise my mother will be worried."
Erya packed up, took off her little brother's and her muddy coats, and threw them into the sack. Then she put Jiaojiao on her back, and she and her little brother carried Tian Qigen and hurried away.
When the three of them walked halfway, the sky darkened and the jungle became quiet, with the occasional chirping of cicadas.
"Sister~I'm afraid."
Xiao Li shrank his neck and pulled the corner of his sister's clothes.
Jiaojiao felt a little sleepy, but when she heard that her brother was scared, she quickly closed her eyes and released more spiritual power to deter the poisonous insects and ants.
Erya's dark face was also tense, and she was worried in her heart, but she still pretended to be calm and said to her younger brothers and sisters: "Don't be afraid, I dug a lot of Pangasius today, and we will go to the market with dad to sell it early tomorrow morning. Then we will
Also eat wontons and big meat buns."
Sure enough, when Xiao Li heard the delicious food, he smiled innocently and said loudly: "Then I will eat three big buns tomorrow."
"Okay, I will make sure you are full by then..."
After finally getting out of the jungle, Jiaojiao became weak. Today's trip consumed too much spiritual power, and she needed to rest for a while.
There were a lot of people on the road at this point. Erya was carrying his sister and brother carrying sacks, and many people were looking at them curiously.
Among them, Granny Qiu, who came back from selling tofu at the market, smiled and asked: "Second girl, what are you doing?"
Erya's black eyes turned cleverly and said loudly: "Grandma Qiu, these are the weeds that my brothers and sisters and I dug up so that the hens can eat them and lay more eggs."
She's not stupid. If everyone knows, then they shouldn't compete with her for business.
After Erya finished speaking, the people who were watching the excitement were all biting their ears and talking, which was nothing more than ridiculing gossip.
Erya ignored them at all, said hello to Granny Qiu and hurried home.
When she was almost at the door of her house, she saw her parents and elder brother coming back from the opposite intersection, and she secretly screamed that she was not good.
At this time, Liu Zhihua had already seen them and ran towards them in a hurry.
Erya hugged her younger brother and bent down to carry her younger sister. She was so sweaty that she didn't even dare to look at her mother.
"You bastard, where did you go with your brothers and sisters? Why did you come back after dark?"
Liu Zhihua panted and whispered, and quickly picked up the sleeping baby. Seeing her pink face sleeping sweetly, she was afraid and hugged her daughter tightly.
The sky was getting dark, and these children were not seen back. She was almost scared to death.
Wang Zhuangzhi breathed a sigh of relief when he saw his three children safe, "Huh~ It'll be fine if nothing happens."
After not seeing Guabao for a day, he stepped forward and carefully pulled Guabao's little hand. Seeing Guabao sleeping with his mouth pouted, his slightly fierce face showed a touch of gentleness.
Erya, who bowed her head to be scolded, pitifully called out "Dad."
When Wang Zhuangzhi heard this, he smiled and touched her head and said: "Whenever something happens, I call you daddy, but this time I won't. You must make a good deal with your mother next time you go out."
Erya nodded quickly, glanced at her mother secretly, and admitted her mistake obediently: "Mom, I was wrong."
Liu Zhihua was so anxious that her heart was still pounding and her anger had not yet subsided. Seeing this, Wang Zhuangzhi smiled and persuaded: "Forget it, everyone is fine. Let the children enter the house first, otherwise the passing villagers would look at it again."
It’s time to talk nonsense.”
Liu Zhihua choked, holding the good baby in her arms and fearing to wake up others, she sighed and said nothing more.
