Zhao Jun and Li Baoyu led four dogs up the hillside, scattered them and tied them to four trees, and then Zhao Jun and Li Baoyu began to carry the ginseng.
Pulling away the dead branches and rotten leaves, and looking at the six seedlings with tall leaves gathered together, Zhao Jun raised his hand towards Li Baoyu.
Li Baoyu took out a deerskin roll from his shoulder bag, unfolded it, and revealed the deer antler key inside.
Zhao Jun knelt on the ground, leaned down and carefully used the antler key to push away the soil.
Ginseng pays attention to its grain, grain, whiskers, shape and body.
If a ginseng seedling is dug up and the beards are broken, even if only one is broken, its price will be greatly reduced.
Zhao Jun patiently and slowly dug up the soil, using the antler spoon to pick out a complete ginseng root, and then moved on to another one.
He had been busy here for more than half an hour. Li Baoyu, who had gone to remove moss and cut pine bark, had already returned, but he did not dare to breathe and watched Zhao Jun's every move.
Zhao Jun worked for an hour and a half before lifting out the six-pin leaves of the seedling. At this time, he had inserted the antler key aside, holding the ginseng head and legs with one hand, and holding the long ginseng beard with the other.
.
"Ouch!" Li Baoyu came over, stretched out his right hand, held it with four fingers, leaving only his index finger, and used his fingertips to tap the pearl knots on the ginseng beard. Then he stared at Zhao Jun closely and asked: "Brother, this mallet
Awesome!"
Although Li Baoyu didn't understand the appearance of ginseng, he had lived in a forest area since he was a child and had seen others making ginseng into wine.
At this time, Li Baoyu had a feeling that all the ginseng he had seen since childhood could not compare with this seedling.
"Baoyu." Zhao Jun called Li Baoyu with a smile.
"Brother, what happened?"
Zhao Jun smiled, looked at Li Baoyu, smiled and whispered: "Let's take this one."
"It's true!" When Li Baoyu heard this, he smiled so hard that his lips went to the back of his cheeks.
Zhao Jun nodded and hurriedly said to Li Baoyu: "Hurry up and wrap this mallet."
"Hey, hey." Li Baoyu hurriedly turned around to get the moss and pine bark. The two brothers carefully wrapped the ginseng and handed it to Li Baoyu to put it in his shoulder bag. Then Zhao Jun went to carry the fourth-grade leaves of the seedlings.
At this time, it was almost two o'clock in the afternoon. At the same time, Wang Meilan also arrived at Yongshengtun and came to Zhou Chunming's house.
As soon as she got up in the morning, she had breakfast with her children and began to clean up the house.
After everything was cleaned up inside and outside the courtyard, and the dogs and sheep were fed, Wang Meilan took Zhao Hong and Zhao Na to the next door and entrusted them to Jin Xiaomei to take care of them.
Then Wang Meilan shaved about ten kilograms of bear leg meat, plus a bear paw, bagged it together and carried it out the door, went to Zhang Yuanmin's house, and gave it to Yang Yufeng.
This was what Zhao Jun told him before he went out in the morning, saying that Zhang Yuanmin was injured and he had to be patched up.
After chatting at Zhang Yuanmin's house for a while, Wang Meilan returned to her home and shaved four or five kilograms of bear leg meat. Together with a bear paw, she put it into a sack and carried it to Yongsheng Tun.
It was also a bear paw, but Wang Meilan also gave Zhang Yuanmin’s family ten kilograms of meat, while she only gave five kilograms to her daughter’s family.
The reason for this is very simple, because it is a long way to Yongshengtun, and if there are too many treatments, Wang Meilan cannot carry them.
Wang Meilan was very tired after carrying it to Zhou Chunming's house. She put the sack outside the fence and was about to call someone when she saw the door opened and Hu Sanmei came out with a basin and poured water on the ground.
.
"My mother-in-law!" Wang Meilan called Hu Sanmei.
"Yeah!" Hu Sanmei looked up when she heard the sound, and couldn't help being stunned. She was a little hurried for a moment, looking left and right, then put the basin under the window, wiped her hands on her clothes, and ran towards the door. When they arrived at the door, Hu Sanmei grabbed Wang Meilan's hand with one hand and patted the back of Wang Meilan's hand with the other, saying, "My mother-in-law, I haven't seen you for a while."
With that said, Hu Sanmei pulled Wang Meilan towards the yard.
Wang Meilan hurriedly struggled back, one hand was held by Hu Sanmei, and she used the other hand to lift the sack.
Hu Sanmei looked back and couldn't help complaining: "These are my own family members, why are you here to buy anything?"
"I didn't buy it." Wang Meilan was struggling to carry the sack in one hand and said to Hu Sanmei: "Zhao Jun went up to the mountain to fight the blind bear yesterday. I'll cut some meat for you and get a bear paw."
"Zhao Jun is a kid who is promising." Hu Sanmei let go of Wang Meilan's hand, walked to the other side, and Wang Meilan and she grabbed a corner of the sack and walked into the house.
After entering the house and putting the sack next to the stove, Hu Sanmei said to Wang Meilan: "This must weigh thirty kilograms, you..."
Before Hu Sanmei finished speaking, she heard the child in the back room making an "ah" sound. Hu Sanmei hurriedly turned around and ran to the back room, followed closely by Wang Meilan.
When Hu Sanmei entered the house, she picked up the child, held it in her arms and played on the ground.
The child was so coaxable that he stopped crying when his grandma hugged him. At this time, Wang Meilan came over, reached out and gently tapped the tip of the child's nose, then took the child from Hu Sanmei's hand and said: "Hurry up and give me a hug.
”
There is not so much care these days. Children are hugged as soon as they are brought in, and there is no need to wash hands and disinfect.
Hu Sanmei gave the child to Wang Meilan. Wang Meilan held her grandson in her arms, with a smile on her face. She sat on the edge of the kang and teased the child with a "gurgling" sound.
Seeing this, Hu Sanmei hurriedly turned around and left the house to pour water for Wang Meilan.
Seeing Hu Sanmei going out to get water, Wang Meilan didn't say anything. She was carrying bear paws and bear meat along the way. She was really thirsty.
But suddenly she remembered something, and Wang Meilan hurriedly asked: "My mother-in-law, where is Chun'er?"
"Ah! Chun'er went out." At this time, Hu Sanmei came in with a glass of water, put it in Wang Meilan's hand, and then said: "Isn't it spring? We have a family here who started to fry mahua. Seeing that the weather has warmed up, Honey
Fruits, cold cakes, etc. Before lunch, Chun'er and I chatted about buying some to eat back. Before you came, Chun'er had only been away for a while."
Speaking of this, Hu Sanmei pointed at the little boy in Wang Meilan's arms and said with a smile: "Does he know that he feels sorry for his mother? When his mother is at home, he doesn't pee; when his mother leaves, he pees. I'm here
I just finished washing his bed and went out to pour water. Let me see if you are here."
"The child follows his uncle!" Wang Meilan said with a smile, and then explained to Hu Sanmei: "This child follows his uncle, and my Zhao Jun knows that he feels sorry for me."
Hu Sanmei is just joking, what can a child under one year old know? He can pee whenever he wants.
But Wang Meilan just wants to praise her son.
If it had been half a year ago, that would be fine. But in the past six months, no matter who Wang Meilan praised her son to, the other party had to listen.
The same is true for Hu Sanmei. Zhao Jun has been so promising in the past six months, and his own family has also benefited from it. Two days before the New Year, Zhao Chun went back to his parents' house and brought back a piece of bear bile, which cured the child's rash.
A few days ago, Zhao Jun gave the Zhou family a wild boar weighing more than a thousand pounds, directly sending Zhou Chunming to take his career to the next level.
"That's great if you want his uncle!" Therefore, Hu Sanmei could only agree: "Now your Zhao Jun has become more successful. Our village son Zhou Chengguo came over two days ago and even praised Zhao Jun when he talked."<
/p>
When Wang Meilan heard this, her eyes stopped laughing. At this moment, she heard a noise outside, and Zhao Chun came back carrying several butter paper bags.
When he entered the house and saw Wang Meilan, Zhao Chun was so happy that he rushed to Wang Meilan and pulled Wang Meilan. He felt that the two of them had endless things to say.
Wang Meilan was talking, and then she talked about Zhao Chun's promising brother. Then she remembered something, holding the child in one hand, pointing to the outhouse and Hu Sanmei with the other hand, and said: "My mother-in-law, you have to put cold water on that black blind man's meat."
Pull it out, it’s a hot day, don’t let it go bad.”
Hearing this, Hu Sanmei hurriedly agreed, got up and walked to the outhouse. As she walked, she said: "My mother-in-law, when you came with my parents-in-law, my food standard was raised. In the past two days, my parents-in-law killed us again."
Sheep, and they hunt roe deer for us. Come here, and give us the black blind man's palm."
"Kill the sheep?" When Wang Meilan heard this, her expression changed, she looked at Zhao Chun, and asked in a low voice: "Where did your dad put the sheep?"
