Chapter 10 Going up the mountain

"That's right, Qilang, be good. When the fourth brother comes back, he will take out the eggs and cook them for you. You will have dumplings to eat during the Chinese New Year!" Shilang said, touching Qilang's head.

"There are really bird eggs to eat. Well, fourth brother, please take me to get the bird eggs quickly!" Qi Lang pulled Shi Lang's sleeve and was about to leave.

"Second brother, I'll take Qilang to look around first. If anything happens, call me loudly!"

"Fourth brother, I will go with you too. Let the second brother and the little sister stay here!" Boys are naturally more interested in going up the mountains to catch birds and fish in the water, so Wulang was also busy begging to go.

"Don't go too far!" Erlang warned.

In this way, several people started working separately, and just as Yuezhen wanted to do, after Shiro, Wulang, and Qilang left, Yuezhen deliberately took a small shovel and dug here and there, poking here and there, and walked farther and farther away from Erlang.

Erlang concentrated on digging for vegetables and didn't pay much attention. When he was far away, he quickly dug out a ginseng plant from the space. He weighed it in his hands and found that it weighed half a catty. This was more than the 500 ginseng plant in his previous life.

The 2018 King Ginseng is even heavier, and this is the smallest ginseng in space.

After digging a hole about the same size as ginseng nearby, Yuezhen shouted: "Second brother, come here and see what I dug!"

Erlang was startled. He didn't pay attention, and his sister was actually ten or twenty meters away from him. "Little sister, why are you running so far? Don't you want you to be next to me? What if you encounter a snake or something?"

?”

"Hey, second brother, look, I dug up a really big strange radish, and I also grew a long beard, like a little old man!" Yue Zhen said, sticking out her tongue.

"This,,,,,,this,,,,,, looks like ginseng, little sister, where did you dig it?" Erlang hurriedly took the ginseng and looked at Yuezhen. He didn't bother to scold him and grabbed Yuezhen.

asked.

"I dug it here, second brother, what is it and can it be eaten?" Yue Zhen pointed to the pit in front of her and asked pretendingly.

"Little sister, you are indeed a lucky star!" Erlang hugged Yuezhen Shale excitedly, and then nervously looked left and right, fearing that someone would discover him, and finally, on Yuezhen's suggestion, he looked

Wrap the ginseng in two large leaves, hide it under the basket of vegetables, and cover it with the vegetables.

Then, Erlang shouted and called Shiro and the three back. Several people divided their labors and searched carefully in a radius of one mile. Of course, they couldn't find it! Instead, they found some fungus, shiitake mushrooms, purslane, mustard greens, and walnuts.

, wild pears, wild grapes, jujubes, and chestnuts called "thorn balls" here. There were so many things that I couldn't put them back at once, so I had to remember the route and wait to pick them again later.

When they returned, even Yuezhen carried a small basket of wild vegetables. Erlang carried a basket of ginseng and looked around for fear of being discovered. When he returned to the door, he also sneaked in through the back door. Fortunately, now the Li family's daughter

They are all busy hiding in their rooms and doing more embroidery work to save money for their own money. The men are either studying or going to the village to play small cards. This is the only time of the year when they can take a breather. The children have disappeared long ago and there are no people around.

Notice.

Several baskets of wild vegetables and fruits filled the originally small wing. When Mrs. Liu heard the noise, she hurriedly came out and said, "You're back, are you hungry?"

"I'm not hungry, mother. I ate a lot of fruit on the road! What do you think this is?" Erlang smiled happily and directed Shiro to close the door, take out the ginseng and whisper.

"This,,,this is ginseng, where did you get it?" Ms. Liu looked at it and exclaimed in surprise.

"Keep your voice down, Mom, my sister dug this!" She then told Yuezhen how she dug the ginseng: "It's a pity that we searched for a mile around and couldn't find another one. It's my sister's luck.

good!"

"You silly boy, there are piles of treasures like this. It's already very difficult to have one. Look at this head, I'm afraid it's hundreds or thousands of years old. Does anyone else know?" Mrs. Liu had heard this before.

People have said that so-and-so made a fortune by digging up a big ginseng, but they don't seem to be this big.

"No, we didn't tell anyone." Erlang shook his head hurriedly.

"That's good, that's good. You all listen carefully. No one is allowed to tell anyone about this matter, not even your father. Whether you can study in the future depends on whether you can keep it a secret!" Ms. Liu said seriously!

He warned the children at home.

"Can I buy meat?" Qilang was worried about meat.

"Why didn't you tell dad?" Erlang Shilang was puzzled.

"I can buy a lot of meat!" Mrs. Liu touched Qilang's head and said with a smile. The children have been really suffering these years. They can't even eat stew on weekdays. Even if they rarely eat meat, they have to worry about the children in other rooms.

My brother-in-law eats first, so there is no share for them: "When the cat winter comes, Mom will cook more meat for you! Mom said she won't tell your dad because your dad keeps good things close to your grandparents. This is filial piety.

, but if you give it to your grandma, we will lose it, and your grandma won’t give it to you, right?” Ms. Liu didn’t know how to explain it to her children. She didn’t want them to be unfilial in the future, nor did she want them.

We are always wronged like them because of the word "filial piety".

Erlang Shilang understood that if his father hadn't been sincere and held everything close to his grandma, his life would not have been so miserable. He would not have lived like this just because he had hunted too little prey and asked Uncle Li Gen to help sell it.

.But no matter how filial she is, grandma still doesn’t want to see them.

"I understand, grandma gave all the things to uncle and cousin Fu, except for us, we have no meat to eat!" Qilang tilted his head with his fingers in his mouth and thought for a while.

Several people were very amused. How passionate they are about meat!

"Then let's cut some meat to make vegetable broth today!" Mrs. Liu said. She had marinated the meat brought by her parents' family and planned to eat it during the winter. She always eats some during the confinement period.

It's soupy and watery. If you eat fried meat in the open, it will be a problem again!

"Mom, you are so good!" Qi Lang leaned into Mrs. Liu's arms with stars in his eyes. Even Yue Zhen's mouth watered when he heard about eating meat. Er Lang, Si Lang and Wu Lang all looked forward to it.

"Then Silang, please go to Gouzi's house to pick up Jiulang first. This brat went out at noon and hasn't come back yet. Erlang, you can take your younger brothers and sisters to wash vegetables!" Mrs. Liu started to find a box after giving instructions.

Zhongzhi packed the ginseng and put it in a box and locked it up.

By the time Shiro took Jiuro home, Erlang and others had already cooked a large pot of vegetable broth. It was not yet time for dinner, and Liu and others had no trouble cooking on the stove, so they had to

Each person had a bowl of vegetable broth and some unfinished pastries as a meal.

"It's so delicious, sister, please eat more." Qi Lang was eating while asking Yuezhen to eat more.

To be honest, Yuezhen really doesn't have much fondness for this vegetable broth with a little salt. In her previous life, this thing would probably have been eaten by pigs. But in more than a month here, although it is not exaggerated,

It’s really hard to eat meat if you don’t have enough to eat. Even Mrs. Liu, who is doing confinement, only eats one chicken for two days and has to give them several small ones. As an adult, Yuezhen really can’t bear to watch.

Mrs. Liu, who was in confinement, couldn't eat well and refused to eat every time. Fortunately, the fruits in the space were ripe and Yuezhen was able to secretly eat some delicious fruits, so she can eat deliciously now.

"Eat slowly, there's a lot in the pot!" Ms. Liu warned as she looked at Shichiro and Kuro who had their mouths full. In fact, there was only so much meat. Ms. Liu only gave each person three slices, but it was cooked well.

The greasy vegetable soup is still very popular with several children. Now Yuezhen understands why the ancients loved eating fat meat so much. They are short of oil!

In the evening, Li Sanzhi came back from hunting with a large roe deer in his backpack and a few pheasants and hares hanging around his waist. As soon as he entered the house, little Feng went to pick up Li Sanzhi's backpack.

"Oh, third brother, today's harvest is good. I can finally eat meat. The children at home only smell the smell of meat but don't see it every day. They are so greedy!" Little Feng has been doing this to Liu for so long.

She was very dissatisfied. She didn't do anything or talk about anything and still ate alone every day. She didn't even think about whose stomach the leftover meat from Liu's child's full-moon feast had been secretly put into.

"Well, today's harvest is good. San'er, take advantage of the fact that it hasn't snowed yet and go into the mountains a few more times. Keep these pheasants, rabbits, and roe deer. I'll sell them to you tomorrow to buy some new year supplies. Will they be used in the next few months?"

Money for young and old!" After hearing what little Feng said, Mrs. Feng hurriedly walked out of the house and ordered, without even thinking about how much trouble she would have to endure once entering the mountain.

"Mom, Hui Niang is short of food. I want to give her two chickens to make up for it!" Li Sanzhi has long been accustomed to unequal treatment and has no dissatisfaction. He just wants to fight for his wife. This mother has no worries at all.

To Mrs. Liu who was injured!

"Third brother, are you feeling sorry for yourself? My brother and sister spend the entire day doing confinement confinement and eating alone. I won't talk about it. It's been more than forty days and I haven't done enough! Which daughter-in-law is doing this during confinement confinement?

I have eaten so many good things for a long time. I remember when I was in confinement, I ate some good things in the first few days and I was told,,,," Before the black-faced Feng Shi could show up, little Feng Shi had already jumped up.

Came out.

"Second sister-in-law doesn't know how to talk nonsense. Huiniang is injured. The doctor told her that the confinement period must be three months. The food is not provided by the family, but is provided by Huiniang's family alone. If second sister-in-law is dissatisfied,

If you have a chance in the future, you can mention it to your uncle's family!" Li Sanzhi glanced at Xiao Feng and said slowly, he is a gift to his mother for having children, so he can't be unfilial. This is not the case with his second sister-in-law and cousin who never likes to see him.

So much attention is paid to it. Besides, the confinement food was indeed brought by Liu’s natal family, and they did it authentically. Feng’s family gave it a separate gift, and other people’s natal families did not do this.

Pass.

Little Feng was so angry that she had nothing to say in reply. Although Feng was covetous of the things Liu's parents gave her, she couldn't say anything clearly.

"San'er, you can't do this. Liu's family has given them so much food and they have finished it. Our family is not a big landowner. Your nephews and nieces are clamoring for meat. You

The fifth brother and the younger sister need to be replenished if they are not in good health. Look, next time you take the injection, you can give it to your wife to eat, eh?" Feng, who had just had Liu's premature birth and was warned by Old Man Li, did not dare to do so.

As arrogant as before, I have to be moved by emotion.

Li Sanzhi had always heard from Feng that it was because of his corrupted body that the youngest twins were born weak. He always thought that this was the reason why Feng didn't want to see him, so he loved his younger siblings very much. After listening to Feng

After his words, he had to acquiesce and let Feng take away all the prey.
