Chapter 12 Rural Daughter-in-law in the Nineties 11
After the eldest girl and the second girl finished eating the wontons, Meng Changjin paid painfully and led the two little girls out of the store.
Three bowls of wontons cost her twelve yuan, and Meng Changjin sincerely sighed that the money was really not spent.
Meng Changjin didn't stay in the market for too long, and after leading the eldest girl and the second girl out, he went back directly.
When he went back, Meng Changjin took the eldest girl and the second girl back on a motorcycle, although he couldn't go home directly, but he still saved more than an hour of time on the road.
When he got off the motorcycle, Meng Changjin looked eagerly at the motorcycle.
The owner of the motorcycle looked at Meng Changjin staring at his motorcycle, and after receiving the money, he rode away quickly.
Receiving the owner's eyes before riding away, the corners of Meng Changjin's mouth twitched slightly.
Then take the eldest girl and the second girl in the direction of home.
It takes them about half an hour to walk back from where they got off the bus, mainly because the road is impassable, and the distance from here to home is only a dirt path, so they have to walk back on their own.
There is a widened dirt road in the other direction, but it needs to be detoured for a long time, and the owners of these motorcycles are not willing to make a trip.
But even if someone is willing, Meng Changjin may not be very willing.
Far distance means a lot of money, and she, a person who has just gotten out of the dilemma that her pockets are cleaner than her face, will not be in such unnecessary things.
She is willing to spend money to take the car back on the one hand to save some time, and on the other hand, considering that the eldest girl and the second girl are too small, and it takes four hours to make two round-trips, which is too much activity.
The section of the dirt road that walked back from getting out of the car looked like it took about half an hour, because there was no watch and no timekeeping tools, so Meng Changjin judged by looking at the sun.
The eldest girl and the second girl were very excited all the way, and the two little girls were jumping in front, and from time to time they would get together and mumble.
It can be seen that in the past few days, these two little girls have become much more cheerful.
After all, it's a little girl, no matter how calm her personality is, she should have some childish nature, but in what kind of environment before, what kind of child's heart has been suppressed, and it shows that she is silent and glutinous and dare not speak.
Now that I have a good mother, my mentality has naturally changed, and I have become a little bolder.
Meng Changjin followed behind a little and looked quite satisfied.
She is ready to fulfill the client's long-cherished wish and divorce Hao Jianye, take the eldest girl and the second girl away, and then send them to school, if the two are too cowardly, Meng Changjin is also worried that they will be bullied by their classmates when they go to school.
However, seeing that the two children were slowly becoming more bold and more cheerful, she was relieved.
The most important thing now is to make money.
When I got home, the house was quiet, and it seemed that Hao Jianye and the old lady had not come back yet.
Meng Changjin asked the eldest girl and the second girl to stay at home, helped her look at the herbs drying in the yard, and she carried the back basket and carried the sickle up the mountain.
After Meng Changjin went up the mountain, he walked around the route of the trap she had arranged yesterday, originally just a formality, but he didn't expect that there was really a prey caught by the trap.
A fat wild duck, if not fluffy visually, is conservatively estimated to be more than five catties.
This wild duck should have gone to this area to feed, and then stepped into the trap arranged by Meng Changjin, and then was hoisted up by rattan.
The feathers were already fluttering a little messy, and it looked like they had been hanging for a while.
Meng Changjin tied the fat duck with the rattan and put it into the back basket.
With this fat mallard here, it is not a harvest today.
Meng Changjin released his strengthened divine sense, looking for prey and medicinal herbs.
Because she had already been found in the nearby circle yesterday, there was nothing good, so Meng Changjin went deeper into the mountains and forests.
With the spread of his divine sense, Meng Changjin really found something good.
Looking at the small red fruit at the top of the plant, this is ginseng, and it seems that the age is not small, at least about a hundred years old.
Meng Changjin put down the back basket, deliberately used a sickle to cut a stick into a shape suitable for digging ginseng, and then began to dig ginseng with concentration.
Compared with some medicine diggers who dig ginseng and tie red rope copper coins or something, Meng Changjin is simply too concise.
But in fact, although this ginseng is not a short year, it is not a spirit, and there is no problem of running away at all.
Meng Changjin has a talent for refining medicine, not only including refining medicine, but also identifying and collecting medicinal materials.
Now when I sink down and dig up ginseng, it is also good.
After digging out the roots of the ginseng completely, Meng Changjin looked up and found that the sky had darkened.
After finding a few large leaves and wrapping the wild ginseng, Meng Changjin hurriedly walked down the mountain with his things.
I didn't feel it when I was concentrating on digging ginseng, but now when I move, I realize that my legs are stiff because of squatting on the ground for a long time, and my neck is also in unbearable pain because of bowing my head for a long time.
Meng Changjin moved his neck as he walked, and his free hand thumped his leg by the way.
The stiffness and paralysis caused by the poor blood circulation for a long time gradually faded, and Meng Changjin had already walked out of the mountains and forests, and he could already see the outline of the courtyard from a distance.
Meng Changjin glanced at it, retracted his gaze, and prepared to hurry home while it was still dark.
However, as soon as he retracted his gaze, Meng Changjin realized that something was wrong.
When she looked up, sure enough, she saw the smoke in the courtyard.
Someone in the house started a fire.
But there are only two little girls in the family, where is the person who starts the fire?
Meng Changjin was not good, so he hurried down the mountain, probably Hao Jianye and the old lady came back.
She is not at home, if it is really the old lady and Hao Jianye who come back, they will definitely think that she has left directly, and the eldest girl and the second girl will definitely become the object of their anger.
This is where Meng Changjin didn't think about it, what she can do now is to rush back as soon as possible.
However, as the distance from home got closer and closer, Meng Changjin's divine sense had already seen the scene in the courtyard clearly.
After seeing the situation in the courtyard clearly, Meng Changjin breathed a sigh of relief and was not so anxious.
Pushing open the door and walking into the courtyard, Meng Changjin met two dirty and tearful little girls at a glance.
In the next second, the two little girls rushed up like two small cannonballs and plunged into Meng Changjin's arms.
"Mom, you're finally back, I thought Mom, you're gone, and you won't take us with you, Hiccup." The second girl sobbed and wiped her tears, said while wiping, and finally hiccuped.
Compared with the second girl, the eldest girl was a lot silent, but the hand holding Meng Changjin's sleeve tightly said that the eldest girl should be the same as the second girl, thinking that she had secretly left and was not ready to take them.
