Ye Xiaohua thought about it, if Uncle Guan continued to ask, she would truthfully admit it, and said that her head was hit.

However, Guan Chief's attention did not stay on Ye Xiaohua's body, he looked at the messy room carefully, his throat was sour, and the words choked in his throat finally turned into a sigh.

Chief Guan didn't say anything, took out two cornmeal dumplings with a little heat from his sleeve and gave them to Ye Xiaohua, patted her shoulder and left without saying anything.

Ye Xiaohua could see that the man's last glance was very complicated, probably because he felt that their sister and brother had no way to live, and he himself had a large family to support, so he had more than enough heart but not enough strength.

Despite this, Ye Xiaohua was still full of gratitude to him.

With these two dumplings, she won't be hungry today, she thought about it last night, she wants to go to the mountains, although it is really inconvenient to bring a little bean, but in this situation, the little bean is not under her nose, she is really not at ease.

Mrs. Ye and the other side of the big house are still thinking about exchanging small beans for money.

Ye Xiaohua boiled some hot water, the sister and brother ate a dumpling, and the rest of Ye Xiaohua wrapped it in a clean cloth that she had been looking for a long time in the house, and then put it in the back basket together with the tools she thought could be used to enter the mountain.

The long-term lack of food has made Ye Xiaohua's body seriously malnourished, and she is smaller than people of the same age, but her back basket is heavy and big, and she still has a little difficulty carrying it.

Ye Xiaohua took her younger brother to the back mountain, and the people in the village couldn't help but talk about it when they saw it, but no one stopped them, now the sisters and brothers are like sticky bags, no one dares to provoke, they are afraid that if they say a word, they will be glued, and they can't get rid of it.

The news of the sister and brother going to the back mountain soon reached the ears of Ye Pozi.

There are often jackals and beasts in the back mountain, and young and strong men don't dare to go easily, just two of them little dolls, and a fool, I'm afraid that there will be no return.

Ye Pozi regretted that Xiaodouzi couldn't sell it for money, but at the same time, she was happy that the two-bedroom house was obtained without much effort, but she felt that it was a little slow to get dark.

Ye Xiaohua took the little bean, walked to the mountain with one foot deep and one foot shallow, the autumn harvest has passed, and it is close to winter, and there are no wild vegetables on the mountain, and there is nothing to eat at all.

There was no way, Ye Xiaohua could only pick a smoother road and continue to walk in with Xiaodouzi, and from time to time he had to care about Xiaodouzi, his nose was sweating, but he stubbornly shook his head and refused to stop.

After turning over a small hill, Ye Xiaohua herself was a little unbearable, so she found a big stone that had been exposed to the sun and had a little temperature for Xiaodouzi to sit down, and by the way, she also put down the heavy tools on her back, ready to rest for a while and then look for it.

She took out the kettle and let the little bean drink first, and when she was idle, she looked around, and found that there were dots of red among the yellow and green trees.

Take a closer look, it is a mountain vitex tree, Ye Xiaohua had eaten it when she went to the mountains to perform a mission in her previous life, although the color of this fruit is very bright, but she is sure that it is not poisonous, but if you eat it like this, the taste is not good, sour and astringent, but it is a good snack when you process it.

And in her previous life, she heard from the villagers in the mountains that this mountain vitex is full of treasures, the tree posture is elegant and graceful, the flowers are luxuriant, the white flowers, green leaves, and red branches reflect each other, which can be used as ornamental trees, and the seedlings can be used as grafted rootstocks for apples and begonia fruits.

The wood of the mountain vitex can be carved into furniture because of its straightforward and detailed structure, but she doesn't know what the level of wood art here is yet, and she can try it if she has the opportunity in the future.

There is no trace of the mountain vitex here being picked, and Ye Xiaohua guessed that probably the people here thought it couldn't be eaten.

After receiving a small half basket of mountain vitex seeds, Ye Xiaohua felt that the harvest was not small, after all, when she came, she was already ready to return empty-handed, which Cheng thought, this is just the beginning.

With a little doll, Ye Xiaohua didn't dare to go too far into the mountains, in case some fierce beast came out, she was afraid that it would be inconvenient for her to escape.

It's a pity that even though she was very careful, Xiaodouzi still tripped over branches and stones on the ground because of her short calves, but fortunately, the little guy was wearing thick clothes, and his knees were only green, and he didn't break and bleed.

However, Xiaodouzi fell out of silver.

After Ye Xiaohua examined his wounds, she turned back to pick up the shoes that she had thrown off, and found that there were brown and yellow things stuck to the branches of the dwarf shrubs next to him, which were the seeds of the praying mantis, which were medicinal herbs.

Ye Xiaohua's flushed little face suddenly burst into laughter, others thought that their sister and brother had gone and never returned, but they didn't want her to find so many treasures here.

As far as the eye can see, there are mantis seeds on a large number of branches around me, which can at least solve the problem of eating if they are sold to a pharmacy.

"Sister, what are you doing with this thing?" Xiaodouzi asked, but his hand was also picking mantis seeds, his hand was very small, and the two of them were a little unable to grasp it.

Ye Xiaohua tilted her head and smiled, "With this, we have steamed buns and big elbows." ”

It's getting dark, and the little things you eat in the morning have long been consumed during the long journey, Xiaodouzi licked her mouth and imagined the delicious things her sister said, "Really? ”

"Of course, this is a medicinal herb, and it would be good for you to eat this if you wet the bed again in the future."

"Who...... Who wets the bed? Little Beanzi turned his face away, and his little black and yellow face was faintly flushed, similar to the clouds in the west.

First the mountain vitex, then the praying mantis seed, Xiaodouzi found that her sister, who everyone called a fool, knew more than those smart people!

It's getting dark, and there are still a lot of praying mantis seeds in the distance that haven't been picked, Ye Xiaohua is really a little reluctant, it's all silver, pick a few more, you can eat one more steamed bun, but she knows that she has to go back, and if she doesn't go back, it will be difficult to go down the mountain.

And this time, I was very careful, but I still let Xiaodouzi get hurt, and I can't bring him again next time.

Ye Xiaohua, who was carrying an empty basket, was a little overwhelmed, not to mention her who returned with a full load, although the way back was downhill, the available time was about the same as when she came.

When I got home, it was completely dark, but Ye Xiaohua found from a distance that her small dilapidated yard was brightly lit and crowded, as if something big had happened.
