Chapter 158: Seeking a Living
Today, the Luo family is not out of the stall, Luo Huiniang is at home, and she saw Gu Jinli packing up her things from a distance, looking like she was going up the mountain, she immediately ran to her house and asked, "Xiaoyu, are you going to enter the mountain?" ”
Without waiting for Gu Jinli to nod, he said, "I'll go too, I'll be fine and won't go into the mountain." ”
She had entered the mountains at the beginning of the month, and it had been more than half a month since then.
Gu Jinli said: "Okay, you go back and tell your father, and in a quarter of an hour, we will go up the mountain." ”
"Okay." Luo Huiniang smiled and squinted, ran back to say to her father, brought a firewood knife and cloth bag, dry food and water, and ran to Gu Jinli's house again.
Gu Jinli was ready, standing in the courtyard and waiting for her.
"Are you two going into the mountains?" Cui Shi was not very worried about the two girls' family entering the mountain, and persuaded: "Forget it today, and when your eldest brother or your father is free, I will take you into the mountain." ”
Gu Jinli said: "Mother, I have learned a few tricks from Hui Niang, Hui Niang's fists and feet are not weak, we can protect ourselves, you don't have to worry." ”
Since she crossed the rebirth, she has insisted on practicing martial arts every day, practicing the fighting techniques of the previous life, looking for deadly, although the current body is a child, there is no power in the previous life, but it is not a problem to defeat a few minions.
And there is also Luo Huiniang, who has been practicing with Luo's father Luo Wu since she was a child.
Cui Shi is still not very relieved, after all, the two of them are girls' families, and if something happens, it will be a matter of a lifetime.
"Aunt Oyama." Qin Sanlang carried a sack and rope on his back, carried a machete, wore a short beat, and took Gu Dewang to stand at the courtyard gate of Gu Jinli's house very energetically, and said to Cui's family: "Brother Wang and I are going to go into the mountain to chop firewood, let Xiaoyu follow us into the mountain." ”
Gu Dewang was carrying a flat pole on his shoulders, and two bundles of ropes were hung on the flat pole, which were used to bundle firewood, and he was still eating the starch candy snatched from He Sanzi's hand in his mouth, and said vaguely: "Dashan Boliang, oh, oh, we will protect Sister Xiaoyu." ”
Luo Huiniang looked at Gu Dewang's saliva ticking appearance, frowned and said, "Brother Wang, quickly wipe your saliva, it's too buried." ”
"Oh." Gu Dewang answered, raised his hand and wiped a handful of saliva with his sleeve, seeing that Luo Huiniang hurriedly turned his head.
When the third grandmother saw it, she scolded Chen, and at the same time brought a handkerchief made of linen cloth and stuffed it to Brother Wang: "Take it, use it to wipe your mouth and blow your nose, but don't use your hands anymore." ”
Gu Dewang put away the handkerchief with a smile, nodded and said, "Eh, I know the third grandmother." ”
The third grandmother looked at Gu Dewang's stupid appearance, nodded his forehead, explained a few words to Gu Jinli and Luo Huiniang, and then turned around and went back to the house.
"Mother, let's go, you can go back." Gu Jinli waved his hand at Cui's family, took Luo Huiniang, followed Qin Sanlang out of the courtyard, went around to the path behind Qin's house, and walked towards the mountain.
I saw a young man in a black short fight from a distance, it was Qin Erlang, Qin Erlang was still the same as before, unless it was Qin Lao's order, he didn't care much about them. Even if there was such a big incident yesterday, it was Qin Lao and Qin Saburo who came forward, and he knew that it would not appear.
Qin Sanlang saw Gu Jinli seeing Qin Erlang, so he said, "Second brother is going into the mountains to chop wood. ”
The second brother doesn't like Xiaoyu and their families, he never goes to help grind beans, nor does he help grind spices, he only goes into the mountains to chop wood, he can do this work alone, and it is quiet, although grandpa is dissatisfied with him so unsociable, but he didn't say anything, and now grandpa is as long as the second brother stays in the south, he burns high incense, and he doesn't expect him to work.
Gu Jinli nodded, and didn't ask Qin Erlang about it, Qin Erlang was too gloomy, and he also had some secrets that cost his life, she didn't want to be a virgin and explore Qin Erlang's secrets.
The group walked towards Dafeng Mountain, Qin Erlang Xu saw them, and when he saw that they were going to go forward, he walked to the shallow mountain on the left to avoid them.
Gu Jinli didn't care about it, and while walking towards the mountain, he picked the mountain treasures in the mountain.
It is now the end of February, a lot of wild vegetables have broken out of the ground, scattered and grown a lot, they go all the way to dig wild vegetables, and when they go to the mountains, everyone has a bundle of wild vegetables in their hands, there are purslane, bracken, maran head and so on.
Gu Jinli also dug up a lot of medicinal herbs and planned to take them home to plant.
After they walked for an hour, Qin Sanlang said, "There are a lot of dead trees here, so let's cut them down here." ”
They go into the mountains to cut wood, usually by cutting down some trees that have been eaten by insects, which are dying, and it is easier to cut them, and it is not a pity to cut them.
"Okay." Gu Jinli pointed to a piece of mountain forest on the right and said, "Let's go over there to find the mountain treasures and see if we can catch pheasants or rabbits." ”
"Okay." Qin Saburo nodded, already holding the machete to cut down a half-withered tree.
Gu Dewang picked up the fallen branches on the ground, stepped on the two-finger-wide branches, put them together, and tied them up.
Luo Huiniang had already run around and ran happily.
Gu Jinli walked all the way to the mountain forest on the right, some time ago she went into the mountain to look for spices, and saw the mountain god mushroom that had just emerged in this mountain forest, and now the mountain god mushroom should have grown, she went directly to pick it.
Gu Jinli walked for more than a quarter of an hour, pulling on the ground with a branch, and soon found the mountain god mushroom under a rotten leaf.
The mountain god mushroom is white, like a closed umbrella, and there is a piercing red circle at the root, and it is this circle of red that carries a toxin against men.
The mountain god mushroom can be eaten, the taste is very delicious, and the woman is fine if she eats it, but after the man eats it, if he has sex within twelve hours, it will kill him.
In the last life, she was on a mission and went to a mountain village, when a man in the village was running errands with his wife, he suddenly died, at first everyone thought that the man was too excited, and immediately died of the wind, but later I learned that this was not an accident, but eating the mountain god mushroom in the mountain, which induced the sudden death of the wind immediately.
And it was his wife who gave him the mountain god mushroom.
When she heard about this, she instinctively picked a few fresh mountain god mushrooms and went back to experiment, and sure enough, she found that this fungus contained toxins that could induce a stroke.
And if this toxin is not equipped with modern instruments and equipment, you can't detect it at all, so this mountain god mushroom can be said to be a necessary medicine for poisoning and murder in ancient times.
Gu Jinli took out a small cloth bag, picked ten mountain god mushrooms, and then picked some medicinal herbs in the mountain forest, then came out of the forest to help Qin Sanlang and them chop wood.
The group of four worked in the mountains for two hours, and after cutting ten bundles of firewood, they went out of the mountain and headed home.
Qin Sanlang had a lot of strength, and he picked four bundles of firewood alone, and the remaining six bundles of firewood were divided into three loads, Gu Jinli, Luo Huiniang, and Gu Dewang each had one load.
Gu Dewang is young, and his burden of firewood is all branches, and there are about forty catties, and he can pick it up himself.
A group of four people walked and stopped for more than an hour before they got out of the mountain and came to the path behind the house.
He San leper is here to make a living, and he will report to Gu Jinli yesterday, also to sell a good job.
"Grandma, Brother Qin, Brother Wang, Sister Huiniang, are you coming back from the mountain? Yo, after digging so many wild vegetables and pheasants, you have gained a lot this time. He San rubbed his hands together and complimented vigorously, but they were not familiar with each other at all, and the more he complimented, the more embarrassing the atmosphere became.
Luo Huiniang knew that He San was a bastard, and when she saw him in the way, she immediately shouted: "Get out of the way, otherwise your aunt and grandmother will beat you flat." ”。
Having said that, Luo Huiniang was still afraid in her heart, after all, He San's leper and He Dacai's bad reputation were well known in several nearby villages.
