Chapter 65: Picking up mountain treasures for money
Ye Zhinan hurriedly nodded: "Yes, yes, this will always be our home, and in the future, sister, you will live in your parents, and you can't go anywhere." ”
Ye Qing burst into laughter: "I'll say that when you have a daughter-in-law in the future." ”
Ye Zhinan snorted, and raised his chin with some pride: "If I marry a daughter-in-law, she must be good to my sister, if it is not good to you, I don't want this daughter-in-law." ”
Ye Qing sighed: "Listening like this, my eldest sister is quite inhuman." ”
Mao Hongyu watched the sister and brother tease on the side, and couldn't help but smile on her face.
After lunch, Ye Tiancheng and Mao Hongyu went to take a lunch break.
In the summer, the weather is even hotter, and I know that I am irritable.
There is not even a figure in the alley, only the big yellow dog who is not on a leash is skinny and swaying in the alley.
Ye Qing pulled Ye Zhinan to the gate: "Shui Wa, let's go to the mountain again tomorrow." ”
Ye Zhinan was surprised: "Still going?" Still digging for ginseng? But we didn't sell it last time. ”
He had been excited for a long time because ginseng was a treasure, but when he went to the city, not only did he not make any money, but he was almost deceived in the end, and he was a little devastated.
Ye Qing patted Ye Zhinan, who was wilting and drooping: "I have hidden all the ginseng, what are you worried about?" As long as the treasure is in our hands, it can be turned into money sooner or later, maybe the more we put it, the more valuable it is. ”
Ye Zhinan scratched his head: "Then let's go now?" ”
Ye Qing thought for a moment: "Go now, come back before dark." ”
After discussing, Ye Qing went to find an old military kettle that had lost paint, filled a pot of cold well water, and set off with shovels, daggers, cloth bags, hemp rope and other tools.
Ye Zhinan also secretly brought the slingshot he made, thinking that maybe he could catch a pheasant or something.
It was too hot, and even the children hid in the shade to play.
So there was no one on the way into the mountain, which was convenient for Ye Qing and Ye Zhinan.
Ye Qing also had an idea when she went into the mountain this time, if she could meet ginseng again, even if it was a seedling, she wanted to dig it out and plant it in her space, but she didn't know if it would work.
The two wandered around the mountains and forests for a long time, and went to the place where ginseng was found last time, but they didn't even see ginseng leaves.
Ye Qing was mentally prepared, if ginseng could be found so easily, it would be worthless.
Ye Zhinan's mentality is also very good, when he was looking for ginseng, his eyes kept looking around, wanting to see if he could find pheasants and hares or the like.
A small black shadow swept past his eyes, making Ye Qing startled.
Ye Zhinan had already shouted excitedly: "Sister, it's a rabbit, look at it, it's a rabbit." ”
The hare has disappeared, Ye Qing is also interested, if you can catch a rabbit back, it would be good to stew a rabbit at night, the sister and brother simply began to look for rabbits all over the mountain.
At the same time, a lot of pine mushrooms were found, the umbrella cover was red, the umbrella handle was golden, and the fat look was very pleasing.
Ye Qing knew the pine mushroom and had also picked the pine mushroom, so he knew that this mushroom was not poisonous, so he bent down and squatted down to pick up the mushroom.
Ye Zhinan shouted in fright: "You can't eat it, this mushroom is poisonous." ”
Ye Qing was surprised: "Who told you that it was poisonous?" This mushroom is edible, and it is delicious, and the dried winter stewed chicken is delicious. ”
Ye Zhinan didn't believe it: "The dog Dan family ate this mushroom two years ago, and five of the seven people in the family died. ”
Ye Qing lowered her head and looked at the pine mushroom again, she would not admit her mistake, and this mushroom would only grow on the shady side of the pine tree, and patiently explained to Ye Zhinan: "Then they must have picked poisonous mushrooms, and the two were mixed together and eaten, so there was poisoning." And this kind of is not poisonous, do you believe in my sister? ”
Ye Zhinan hesitated, but still chose to believe Ye Qing: "Believe." ”
Also went over to help pick up mushrooms.
Ye Qing carefully checked the mushrooms that Ye Zhinan picked up, and left them if they were pine mushrooms, if they were mushrooms they didn't know, they couldn't be sure if they were poisonous or not, so they would throw them away.
I don't know when it rained in the mountains and forests, and the soil under the rotten pine leaves was damp, giving the pine mushrooms a good growth environment.
Ye Qing regretted that this place was too far away from the city, and he could make some money if he didn't sell mushrooms.
Ye Zhinan was carrying mushrooms, Ye Qing was carrying things, and the two set off for home.
When I got home, it was already evening, and the people who were working in the fields had not yet finished work, mainly because it was too hot recently, and it was too late to finish work in the fields, and the sun basically set before they got off work.
Mao Hongyu didn't go to the field, but dried vegetables at home with her uninjured left hand, so that she could keep it for the winter.
Seeing Ye Zhinan carrying a bag of things into the hospital: "What are you two doing?" ”
Ye Zhinan put down the mushrooms, lifted the hem of his clothes and wiped the sweat on his face: "Let's go pick up mushrooms, look, it's so old." ”
Mao Hongyu opened her pocket curiously and took a look, frowning: "This mushroom is poisonous, I have diarrhea after eating it, and the dog is not going to eat this mushroom." ”
Only then did Ye Qing understand why he thought that this mushroom was poisonous: "Mom, this mushroom is better to eat in the sun, if it is so fresh, the upper layer of black film is easy to have diarrhea, just wash this black film." ”
Mao Hongyu was skeptical: "Really? ”
Ye Qing nodded: "Why don't you fry a plate at night, I'll eat it first, if it's not poisoned, you can eat it again?" ”
Ye Zhinan refused: "Sister, let me try, if you want to be poisoned, I will be poisoned first." ”
Mao Hongyu couldn't cry or laugh, but at night, under the command of Ye Qing, she still washed a plate of pine mushrooms and fried them, the mushrooms were smooth and delicious, and they were not delicious.
The family of four began to want to eat more, and if they wanted to be poisoned, they would let themselves be poisoned first.
Later, it was delicious and I couldn't stop the chopsticks, and a large plate of pine mushrooms was rushed to eat.
Ye Zhinan couldn't help but smack his lips and savored it: "It's so delicious, it's as fragrant as eating meat, even if it's worth poisoning." ”
Ye Qing patted Ye Zhinan's head: "Nonsense!" It's definitely going to be fine. ”
Mao Hongyu had eaten this mushroom before and had diarrhea, and she almost couldn't get out of the toilet when she pulled it, so she started to worry after eating it, but she didn't react until dawn.
Ye Qing took the remaining mushrooms to the roof to dry, taking advantage of the good sunshine now, there are pine mushrooms in the mountains, and he is going to get more dried mushrooms, and when the time comes, they can be exchanged for money in the city.
Mao Hongyu simply followed her sister and brother to pick up mushrooms in the mountains.
The three of them can pick up a big bag of pine mushrooms every day, and they dry dozens of catties of pine mushrooms before they know it.
Ye Qing counted the days, it was about to be the end of August, Sun Cheng should be back soon, and when it was September, she would go to make a call.
At the thought of being able to completely leave this small ravine where there was nothing immediately, Ye Qing couldn't sleep with excitement.
Mao Xiuhua, who hadn't appeared for a month, suddenly came again, the person lost a lot of weight and became darker, the whole person was a lot haggard, and when she saw Mao Hongyu in the door, she began to cry.
