Xiao Chu calmly thought about it and asked, "Do you know herbs?"

Xia Qinghe nodded to the chicken like rice, she may not be very good at anything else, but she knows a lot of herbs: "I know some herbs, but there is no medicine on the mountain at all." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ”

The thought of this is decadent.

Xiao Chu glanced at Xia Qinghe, he had never seen Xia Qinghe with such a bad head.

"Look at the bare mountaintop besides the pine trees, the real herbs are in the woods and the mountain streams, if you want to find herbs, you will go back to eat and come to me, prepare some dry food to eat, and I will take you to the deep valley of the mountain stream. ”

Xiao Chu is trying to help her?

Xia Qinghe was happy in his heart, he really didn't expect Xiao Chu to be so enthusiastic and willing to help her.

Before leaving, Xiao Chu gave her four fish, and was very enthusiastic to help her slaughter and clean up, and returned home with the fish tied with grain grass.

Zhu Xiaochang was catching butterflies in the yard, and as soon as he saw Xia Qinghe coming back, he hurriedly stepped forward: "Aunt Chu came to provoke you just now." ”

As soon as she heard Aunt Chu, Xia Qinghe had a bad premonition, but Aunt Chu didn't have a good heart for her.

"Did she say what you want me to do?" she said, carrying the fish into the house, pondering how to boil the fish soup directly.

There was only a little bit of oil left, and she felt that she was more luxurious in the past two days, and she had used up the oil almost, so she was going to use the little oil left over to fry the fish and make soup.

Zhu Xiaochang was very sensible and went to the back of the stove to light the fire.

"She said that you have time to go to her house, I think she just didn't have a good heart, she kept saying that I was a fool and couldn't marry a daughter-in-law, and I didn't like her at all. ”

Zhu Xiaochang sniffed and said unwillingly.

Xia Qinghe was thinking about going to the mountain, and quickly washed the fish and fried it.

She glanced at Zhu Xiaochang, who was sitting quietly behind the stove, but saw Zhu Xiaochang suddenly crying: "Qinghe, Aunt Chu said that my father and mother will never come back, that I am a child without a father and a mother, that you will run away with other men in the future, and that I will starve to death ......." ”

Zhu Xiaochang suddenly said this, Xia Qinghe listened to it and her heart tightened, she always felt that it was best for Zhu Xiaochang not to understand anything, how good it was to be carefree and happy, but she didn't want to .......

Sooner or later, some things had to be understood by Zhu Xiaochang, and she put the fish in the pot.

"Aunt Chu is right, your father and mother will never come back, even Zhu Dongmei and Zhu Chunhua will not come back, if I find a man I like will marry, I can't guarantee anything else, but I won't let you go hungry one day when I'm here, and when the conditions are good in the future, there is silver, I'll find you a lady, and your lady will take care of you when the time comes." ”

In the past, when I talked about my daughter-in-law Zhu Xiaochang, I was excited, but today Zhu Xiaochang is particularly sad.

looked at Xia Qinghe innocently with both eyes, moved his lips slightly, and cried even more.

At this moment, Xia Qinghe didn't know what to do.

It's time for the fish in the pot to turn over, Xia Qinghe hurriedly turned over and comforted Zhu Xiaochang: "Don't cry, I'll ignore you if you cry again." After saying this, Xia Qinghe regretted it a little, and it didn't seem to be a glorious thing to threaten Zhu Xiaochang.

However, this method is very effective, Zhu Xiaochang stopped crying, and looked at Xia Qinghe with sobbing, adding firewood to the stove.

Xia Qinghe felt uncomfortable too, although he didn't like Han Pozi and Zhu Dachang very much, he still felt sorry to see the two of them die like this.

"Don't be sad, I don't know how to persuade you, your father and mother are most worried about you, you must learn to take care of yourself and live well, so that your father and mother will also be blind under Jiuquan. ”

Life and death are impermanent, this era is too turbulent, natural and man-made disasters, and you must make more efforts to survive.

After adding water to the pot, Xia Qinghe walked up to Zhu Xiaochang, squatted down and looked at Zhu Xiaochang with pity: "Okay, don't cry, I promise you that you will definitely find a good daughter-in-law for you, and you will go into the mountain with me when you have dinner." ”

Although Zhu Xiaochang is a little stupid, she can still help if she goes along, and she doesn't feel at ease if she leaves him alone at home, the people in the village don't know what to do, so they have to hide far away.

boiled a few sweet potatoes and put them in the back basket, and took a firewood knife with Zhu Xiaochang and went to the mouth of the cave where he had taken refuge a few days ago.

From a distance, I saw Xiao Chu waiting there with a craftsman on his back.

Xiao Chu didn't understand why Xia Qinghe brought Zhu Xiaochang here, and couldn't help but take a few more glances at the two of them.

Sensing Xiao Chu's gaze, Xia Qinghe explained: "I don't worry about leaving him alone at home, and you know the people in the village." ”

In the past, there were Han Pozi and Zhu Dachang, who bullied Zhu Xiaochang and Han Pozi would make noise, but now that the people in the village have bullied Zhu Xiaochang, she can't do anything.

Xiao Chu didn't say much and led the way in front.

The bottom of the mountain and the top of the mountain are completely two worlds, the vegetation on the top of the mountain is very scarce, and the trees are relatively few, but the trees in the valley are lush and green, and the spring mountain stream is clear, even though the grass has withered and yellowed in this season, you can see a lot of things to eat.

After walking a short distance, Xia Qinghe stopped, pointed to a vine with yellow leaves, and said, "There is a yam underneath this, you wait for me and I will dig it out." ”

Xiao Chu looked left and right, not interested in what Xia Qinghe was doing, and after making sure that there was no danger, he walked forward.

After walking a few steps, he turned around, but saw Xia Qinghe putting down the back basket, digging with the small hoe in the back basket.

"I'll go over there and take a look, you dug it and wait for me here, this forest is relatively big and easy to get lost. ”

Xia Qinghe was in a very good mood, he thought he couldn't find anything, but he didn't want to find a yam, so he nodded with a smile and agreed.

Zhu Xiaochang was depressed because of his father's affairs, and Xia Qinghe didn't mean to come up to help when digging yams, so he didn't know what to think anymore when he sat on the ground with his head down.

The tuber of the yam was very large, and the deeper it was dug, Xia Qinghe dug up several pieces of the yam and finally dug out a whole yam.

Seeing that Zhu Xiaochang was in a bad mood, she wanted to distract Zhu Xiaochang's attention, so she picked up the yam dug up and put it in the back basket, and said with a smile: "This yam is delicious, I will steam it for you when I go back in the evening, and I will almost become a sweet potato when I eat sweet potatoes every day." ”

I don't know if I've eaten too many sweet potatoes, but now when she mentions sweet potatoes, she naturally wants to vomit.

Well, it's just too much to eat.

Xiao Chu hadn't come back yet, she looked around, this place was close to the stream, and suddenly a vine wrapped around the cypress tree attracted her, this time it was not a yam but a kudzu vine,

There is kudzu vine, it means that there is kudzu, as soon as she thinks of kudzu, she naturally thinks of kudzu jelly, a money-making plan is formed in her mind, she excitedly carries a basket and runs over with a hoe.
