Chapter 16: It's Time to Protect Her Beans!
Qin Lang naturally had no opinion. The big palm wrapped her soft and delicate little hands, leading her step by step in the messy mountains and forests.
After finishing a few chestnut trees, there was almost half a basket in the big back basket, which was heavy.
Su Jin grabbed a handful of chestnuts with waxed skin, let go and fell down, and the heavy voice made people feel reassured.
She smiled, it's all food.
The two of them finished their work in one go, and they had already passed the meal, and their stomachs were rumbling with hunger.
Fortunately, I was lucky, I dug up some yams, found an open place and made a fire, and put the yams in the fire and roasted them.
The roasted yam powder is glutinous, peeling off the skin, the meat is snow-white, with a hot steam, and when you bite into it, there is a fresh fragrance.
After a short break from lunch, the two of them found other food.
There are still a lot of yams in the mountains, and Su Jin knows a lot about the suitable growth environment that yam likes, so it didn't take much effort for the two of them to fill the empty space of the two back baskets.
Because there was still a pheasant to be loaded, some space had to be freed up.
Qin Lang asked Su Jin to wait for him in an open place, and he was going to go to the stream not far away to slaughter the two pheasants.
The province is calling and fluttering on the road, and it is not easy to bring, and you can get off the pot when you go back to wash it, which is also convenient.
Su Jin agreed with a smile.
By the way, I pulled some useful herbs around the area, but I haven't picked them yet.
Speaking of which, there are really a lot of various medicinal herbs on this mountain, but unfortunately it is not on a large scale, and it is impossible to pick and sell it for money.
All kinds of medicinal materials purchased in the pharmacy are concocted, and no one will accept the kind of fresh plucked from the mountain, and there are not so many people in the pharmacy to handle it.
And she doesn't have the time to pick up the bits and pieces of herbs.
But—
Su Jin's heart suddenly moved, she could consider it, select a few more valuable medicinal materials that are not rare, collect some seeds, and open up a wasteland to plant in the next year.
The more Su Jin thought about it, the more he felt that this idea was very good, and he planned to discuss it with Qin Lang in the evening, and then think carefully about which ones were more suitable.
Seeing many cowpea vines climbing on the bushes not far away, and the mature pods whose skin had changed color were slender and lovely, Su Jin was overjoyed and hurriedly ran over.
Wild beans are rare in the mountains, and the seeds must have been eaten by birds and not digested before being excreted and took root.
Su Jin carefully picked off all the pods and put them in his pocket.
If it falls on the ground, you can't find such a small bean.
Although there are not many, it is about half a catty after all the pods are removed.
But these are all dried beans, and there are still a lot of soaked in water, and cooking porridge with corn kernels or rice can also enrich the ingredients.
Su Jin was picking happily, when he suddenly heard the sound of rustling from behind the grass not far away.
She paused to listen, and the voice was gone again.
She didn't care and continued to pick the pods.
But after a while, the rustling voice came again, very clear, not an illusion.
Su Jin raised his eyebrows in confusion, discerned the direction and looked up-
Facing a pair of fierce and cold eyes, Su Jin "brushed" and was cold.
Wild, wild boar!
What a big boar!
The long mouth, the thick, rough and messy black hair, the cold eyes, and the huge body all exude a dangerous aura.
As a person with considerable experience in entering the mountain, Su Jin immediately withdrew his gaze and stood there motionless.
Her heart was pounding.
She had never seen a wild boar so strong.
This kind of rough mountain overlord is not small, once he provokes it to chase after him, it is impossible for him to outrun it.
She could only try to reduce her presence, trying not to provoke it.
Fortunately, the wild boar was still quite a distance away from her, and it was chewing something in its mouth, and Su Jin was motionless, and it didn't pay much attention to Su Jin.
After a while, just when Su Jin was standing motionless and a little stiff and sore, the huge wild boar finally snorted twice, turned around unhurriedly, and staggered away.
It wasn't until the wild boar disappeared without a trace, and he didn't hear the slightest sound, that Su Jin breathed a sigh of relief.
As soon as her body relaxed, she realized how much pain and numbness her legs were, and she snorted unbearably and fell to the ground.
"What's wrong with you!" Qin Lang had already dealt with the two pheasants, and when he saw that she was coming to her here, he was taken aback when he saw this, and hurriedly stepped forward to support her.
"Shh Su Jin shook his head and motioned for him to be silent, and stumbled and whispered: "Wild, wild boar!" What a big boar, I, let's go, get out of here! ”
Seeing that she was frightened and forced to calm down, Qin Lang's heart softened, and he hurriedly helped her up: "Don't be afraid, let's go." ”
The wild boars in the mountains, especially the wild boars in the mountains and forests with rare human traces, are so big and terrifying, Qin Lang knows very well.
He didn't have any tools at hand now, and he could only run away when he saw it.
It's okay for him to escape alone, but with Su Jin, he will only be unlucky.
Su Jin's legs were a little weak, and he had to rely on Qin Lang's support to walk. didn't forget to remind Qin Lang: "Be careful, don't spill my beans." ”
Qin Lang glanced at the beans she was holding in her clothes with both hands, and she couldn't laugh or cry a little, at this time, she didn't forget to protect her beans!
There is some pity, if it weren't for the poverty of her family, she wouldn't be so protective of food.
Disturbed by the wild boar, Su Jin was obviously a little noisy, and with all the things found today, the two went home.
When he was about to arrive at the village, he passed through a bamboo forest, Qin Lang asked Su Jin to wait, and he went to cut a few bamboos and bring them back.
"This is from Li Zhengbo's house, when I went to borrow a dustpan today, he asked a few words, and asked me to cut a few bamboos and go back to weave something." Qin Lang explained.
"Rimasa is such a good person!" Su Jin sighed with emotion, and hurriedly asked, "What about Lizheng's daughter-in-law?" Agreed? ”
Ruolizheng's daughter-in-law is a cautious person, and the woman's family is broken, and it is inevitable that there will be another turmoil. Su Jinke didn't want to get into trouble at all.
They still have to live in the village! Both of them are outsiders, and they can't offend Lizheng if they offend anyone.
Qin Lang smiled: "Don't worry, Uncle Niang is not that kind of person." ”
Su Jin let out an "oh" before he was relieved, and said with a smile: "In this case, let's send three or four yams to Lizheng's family tonight!" Send some to Aunt Song's family too! ”
Qin Lang smiled and nodded: "Okay." "She's meticulous.
The bamboo of Lizheng's house grows very well, this piece is Nan bamboo, the section close to the ground is almost 20 centimeters thick, and the height is more than tens of meters.
