"What's wrong?" Shen Su'e asked worriedly, "Is it a burn? Let me see your tongue quickly..."
Lingbao shook his head, "My tongue is good."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that Lingbao was fine.
Jiang Qingshan took Lingbao's bowl and spooned two spoonfuls of soup into the bowl. This time, in addition to the soup, there was also a lot of rabbit meat. "Lingbao, eat more meat and be full."
"Dad, you guys should eat too, this soup is delicious!"
After hearing what his daughter said, Jiang Qingshan smiled and said "Okay". He first filled his wife's bowl with soup, and then each of his sons a bowl of soup. When everyone in the family started drinking soup, he filled his own bowl. Soup.
He brought the soup to his mouth and before he started drinking it, he felt the fragrance of ginseng coming to his nostrils. The fragrance was mixed with the smell of rabbit meat, and it was extremely delicious.
He blew on the soup spoon twice and took a sip of the soup. He felt that the fresh and sweet taste of the rabbit meat was faintly accompanied by a fresh and elegant aroma of wild ginseng. One bowl of it made people feel comfortable from beginning to end. , there is a feeling of energy.
For a while, no one spoke, and the dinner table was extremely quiet. Everyone seemed to be drunk by the ginseng and rabbit soup, and after drinking it, they just wanted to savor it slowly.
Jiang Qingshan couldn't help but squint his eyes, and it took him a while to come back to his senses, "No wonder ginseng is so expensive, it tastes so good."
"Yeah, I thought this ginseng would be bitter, but I didn't expect it to have any bitter taste at all. It's sweet..."
"This high-quality wild ginseng has no bitter taste," Jiang Qingshan said. "The bitterness is that of white ginseng, which is incomparable to wild ginseng."
Sanleizi smiled and said, "Dad, you know so much!"
"Haha, your father and I used to follow people to dig ginseng to make money when we were young. As a result, we learned a lot about ginseng, but we never dug out a single ginseng."
When they were laughing and chatting, Wu Chaozi sighed and said, "I think after eating this wild ginseng, I can go to the mountains and cut hundreds of kilograms of firewood right away!"
"Haha, Chaozi, why didn't you say you could go into the mountains and hunt tigers?" Sihaizi said with a smile, "This is not an elixir, how can it be that exaggerated?"
"Dad said this is top-grade ginseng that has been produced for more than fifteen years," Wu Chaozi asked, "Don't you feel anything after eating it?"
"I just think the soup is delicious. After finishing it..."
Sihaizi rubbed his belly, "My belly is a little hot."
Shen Su'e thought that there was still steaming corn in the kitchen, so she packed all the corn, took two corns and handed them to Lingbao, and then said to her sons: "Tomorrow, you can clean up the ferns in the yard, and I will make a fern." Eat minced meat stir-fried with flour."
"Okay, mother, leave this matter to me!"
After Sanleizi finished speaking, his fifth brother asked: "If you make fern roots, who will go into the mountains tomorrow? Didn't we agree that we would go into the mountains to hunt?"
"I'll go into the mountains with you," Dadongzi said. "Aren't you ready with your bows and arrows? I'll teach you how to use them..."
Before he finished speaking, his mother interrupted: "Why don't you pick up your wife tomorrow? Dadongzi, what are you thinking?"
"Yes, brother, didn't you agree to go in two days? How many days has it been? My sister-in-law will be very angry if you don't pick her up."
After Sanleizi finished speaking, Sihaizi echoed: "That's right, brother, you'd better go pick up your sister-in-law as soon as possible. We still have food at home, so we're not in a hurry to go hunting."
"I think the elder brother is just afraid that the elder sister-in-law won't come back and will lose his face when the time comes, so that's why he is dragging his feet and refusing to go."
Wu Chaozi laughed and continued: "If this continues, my sister-in-law may run away with another man..."
"You brat, what are you talking about?" Jiang Qingshan patted his fifth son on the head, "Can you say such nonsense? Apologize to your elder brother quickly!"
Being stared at by his father, Wu Chaozi reluctantly said: "I'm sorry, I was wrong, okay? But the possibility I mentioned is not impossible. When my eldest brother married my eldest sister-in-law, I helped match the strings. Didn’t the matchmaker also say that the sister-in-law is quite popular? She is virtuous and capable, and she has quite an iconic appearance..."
"When did the matchmaker say this? Why didn't I know?"
Seeing his eldest brother frowning, Wu Chaozi smiled and said, "I definitely can't say this to you in person. She told me quietly."
"If she was in demand, why would she marry me? Our family didn't have any money at that time, so the money for her bride price was borrowed," Dadongzi said.
His fifth brother shook his head, "I don't know. Anyway, brother, please quickly take your son and his wife back to your own home."
"Ahem!" Shen Su'e coughed, "Dadongzi, what Chaozi said is right. What does it look like with your wife and son all staying at your parents' house? The scorekeeper will be selected soon, and you haven't even done your own housework. Clearly, who will choose you?"
After being persuaded by everyone, Dadongzi sighed helplessly, "Okay, okay, I will go to her parents' house to pick her up tomorrow."
Little Lingbao had already finished eating one corn.
Her pupils turned golden, and she glanced at her parents and brothers, and found that red and black appeared on her eldest brother's forehead.
Red is love luck, black is disaster luck...
Does the color red and black mean that the eldest brother will be emotionally frustrated?
Lingbao's eyes returned to their original color and he wiped his mouth, "Brother, can Lingbao go with you tomorrow?"
"Ah?" Everyone was stunned.
Shen Su'e said: "Lingbao, your sister-in-law lives quite far away from our village. It takes an hour to walk. It will be too tiring for you to follow."
"Lingbao walks very quickly and doesn't get tired," said Naiwa.
Dadongzi remembered that he and Lingbao went into the mountains together before. She walked faster than him. He was so tired that he was panting during the journey. Lingbao didn't even take a breath.
Thinking of this, he asked: "Lingbao, are you feeling bored after staying at home these days, so you want to go out for a walk?"
"Yes, Lingbao wants to take a walk."
"Okay then, I will take you to your sister-in-law's village tomorrow. There is a waterfall next to her village, which is quite beautiful."
When Wu Chaozi heard this, he hurriedly said: "Then I want to go too!"
His mother patted him on the arm and said, "Why are you following me?"
"Let's go for a walk and get some fresh air. The third brother is going to get fern roots tomorrow. The fourth brother will definitely not be able to take me to the mountains to hunt. The production team hasn't started work yet. I have nothing to do, so I just want to follow Lingbao around." Wu Wu Chaozi said.
Jiang Qingshan thought for a while and said, "Let him go. It doesn't matter if more than one of our family goes. It will appear that we attach more importance to Shugen Niang. However, Chaozi, don't talk nonsense when you go to your sister-in-law's house."
"Don't worry, I mainly want to stay with Lingbao. I don't want to get involved in the affairs of my eldest brother and sister-in-law."
Shen Su'e felt a little worried, "I'll go too!"
"Mom, please don't go. Your knees are bad. Just rest at home," Dadongzi said. "I promise to bring Shugen Niang and the two children back tomorrow."
Fang Xiuyun's family, her sister-in-law, younger siblings and her mother were talking around her, "Daddy Shugen hasn't come to pick you up, what do you mean? The day you first came back, didn't you say that he would come to pick you and your child up in the second grade of junior high school?
?How many days has it been?”
"Just wait a few more days, he will definitely come..."
"Is it one day or two days?" Fang Xiuyun's mother, Ye Chunhua, frowned and said angrily, "You brought your two children back to your parents' house on the first day of the new year, and our family was almost laughed to death by the villagers."
Her sister-in-law Zhang Yingzi said doubtfully: "Sister-in-law, are you lying to us? Are you divorced by your father Shugen?"
"Why are you taking a break? I took the child back to my parents' house out of anger..."
Fang Xiuyun, her sister-in-law and her mother looked at each other with meaningful expressions. After a while, Zhang Yingzi asked: "Does he know that you secretly had sex with an educated youth before you got married?"
