Chapter 7: Up the Mountain
Because she was worried about going up the mountain, Qiao Moer got up from bed early the next day, went to the kitchen to scrape the bottom of the noodle jar, and quickly baked a few cakes.
They went up the mountain, and they did not come back at noon, but they were to be taken with them for lunch.
It was rare for Han not to scold her for being a loser, he tied her trouser legs tightly, put a pair of straw sandals on her feet, stuffed a sickle in her back basket, and kept telling several people to protect Qiao Mo'er, protect yourself, pay attention to danger, and don't go deeper...
waited until outside the door, Xiaohu's voice sounded, and then watched a few people leave.
There are not only a few people from the Qiao family who have gone up the mountain today, in addition to Xiaohu and Uncle Liu in Qiao Xu's mouth, there is also a man who is about twenty or thirty years old.
"Uncle Liu, my sister is picking wild vegetables on the periphery, don't go inside."
When Qiao Xu and the others caught up with the team, a middle-aged man with a bow and arrows on his back frowned and looked at Qiao Mo'er, and before he could speak, Qiao Xu smiled and said with a smile.
"Dad, let Mo'er follow."
Xiaohu scratched his head honestly and persuaded the man.
The man frowned, but in the end, he didn't stop him, and the group went up the mountain.
Looking at the bow and arrow on Uncle Liu's thick back, Qiao Mo'er searched for this person's information in her mind. His name is Liu Tieshu, he is the only hunter in the village, and that little tiger is his son. Because he rarely has contact with the Qiao family on weekdays, the other Qiao Moer are not familiar with it.
Looking at the emerald green mountain in front of her, Qiao Mo'er didn't have the heart to think about anything else, and kept praying in her heart, since God let her wear it here, give her a chance, otherwise she would have a crossing, and she would starve to death, which would be really funny.
"I'll go a little further inside the pillar, and you guys will see if there are any small animals or anything on the periphery."
Spring is not a good time for hunting, but when there is nothing to eat, you have to try it. After walking into the mountains and forests for about a quarter of an hour, Liu Tieshu stopped, said to Xiaohu and us, and finally said to Qiao Guangfa, "Brother Guangfa, do you want to go in with us?" ”
"I..." Qiao Guangfa looked at Qiao Mo'er and Qiao Xu with some hesitation.
"Dad, go ahead, just be careful."
Seeing that he obviously wanted to go, but because of Han's advice and his hesitation with his brother, Qiao Mo'er opened his mouth to make the decision for him.
Qiao Guangfa didn't hesitate anymore and followed, since he came, he also wanted to try his luck.
Looking at their figures, disappearing into the mountains and forests, Qiao Mo'er carried the backpack and looked around, Xiaohu looked at her curiously, and couldn't help but wonder, "Mo'er, what are you looking for?" ”
"Look for wild plants." Qiao Mo'er replied.
"There's no danger here, why don't you let Mo'er look for it here first, Xuzi, you come with me to see the trap I dug a few days ago?" Looking around, Xiaohu patted Qiao Xu on the shoulder and asked.
"Brother, go ahead, I'll be here, you can come back to me after reading it." How can a half-grown young man stay this time without waiting for Qiao Xu to refuse, Qiao Mo'er urged him to go.
Watching her brother and Xiaohu leave, Qiao Mo'er, who was alone, was in a rare and happy mood, humming an unknown tune and looking for wild vegetables everywhere.
"Ah, it's Artemisia!"
After walking a short distance inside, Qiao Mo'er saw that the open space not far away was gray, and when she got closer, she couldn't help but be full of surprise.
In her previous life, her family was also rural, even if she was well-off, she was not very rich, and that society was popular for health, what wild health, their family would occasionally go up the mountain to dig wild vegetables.
She also grew up eating wild vegetables, so she knows all the basic wild vegetables. And this white artemisia is one of her favorite wild vegetables, and this white artemisia also has medicinal properties, and it is also called Yin Chen.
There used to be a saying in her hometown, called "Artemisia in February and March in March, and firewood in April and May." ”
Meaning, when it was first born and sprouted, it was called Yin Chen, and at that time it was medicine, and when it grew up in March and April, it became Artemisia. It's the same thing, but there's a difference.
But now it's the beginning of April, although this white artemisia can still be eaten, but it has already passed the season when it can be used for medicine, happy at the same time Qiao Mo'er is a little lost, if it is two months earlier, these can be taken to the pharmacy for silver.
