Lu Wanxing and Lu Wanqing rubbed by the river for a while, and saw people passing by on the bridge one after another, and it was estimated that it was time for lunch. They carried a large basin of clothes, pasted two goose eggs with mud, and wrapped a layer of leaves in the basin and hid them in the basin.

When I got home, I swept around, took goose eggs and threw them into the ash heap of the stove while no one was paying attention. Lu Wanqing drooled with laughter. Very diligently, he followed Lu Wanxing to shake off all the clothes and put them on the clothesline.

Today's cooking is the eldest mother, Lu Wanxing is very well-behaved to help her, Lu Wanqing is afraid that she will swallow the goose egg alone, and she is also busy in the kitchen.

Lu Wanxing understood her little caution, and she didn't take it to heart at all.

When the meal was served, Lu Wanqian lazily rolled her waist into the kitchen. Seeing Lu Wanxing sitting next to Lu Wanqing, the two of them lowered their heads and talked in a whisper, with bright smiles on their faces. She was inexplicably on fire.

Before the third aunt could speak, she first raised a smiling face, "Wanxing, you don't need to work in the clan anymore, and the eggs won't be filled for you at dinner." ”

"Oh!" Lu Wanxing took a bite of rice with her head bored, and she was obedient as always, which made the third aunt feel that the sharp teeth and sharp mouth in the past two days were an illusion.

"I heard from them today that Lu Laoba and they went up the mountain yesterday and haven't come back until now, maybe they dug up ginseng and ran away." Fourth Uncle Lu Jianghai suddenly said mysteriously.

Lu Jiangshan said in a rough voice, "What are you running?" Can you run a monk or a temple? Their wives and children are still in the locust tree slope, how many money things are worth running? ”

"I don't think I can't," the third uncle, Lu Jianghe, spoke slowly and in a low voice. If everyone is chatting together, you can't hear him talk to him.

The fourth uncle also directly ignored the third uncle, and said to the uncle, "How much money?" If it is six leaves, it is a hundred and ten taels. Who can see a hundred taels of silver in this life? ”

"What can I do?" The uncle glared at him with disdain and said, "In this life, there is a lot of money, and no matter how much money you have, you can spend a lifetime?" Can you take it with you when you die? ”

"It's so hard to talk to you!" The fourth uncle gave him a blank look, "Eh! Five? Calling Lu Wanxing across a table: "I heard that you took the road up the mountain yesterday, do you think there is any ginseng?" ”

Lu Wanxing just finished eating, put down the dishes and chopsticks and said in a proper manner: "If you look at the environment, it is possible, yesterday Uncle Ben and I also saw snakes, and there are usually ginseng when encountering snakes, because mice eat ginseng fruits, and snakes eat mice." But we didn't see it at the time, and we don't know what happened to us later. ”

Lu Wanxing saw that the fourth uncle had a lot of gossip potential, and it was estimated that he had almost inquired about going up the mountain yesterday. She finished her words in one breath, and the fourth uncle of the province got to the bottom of it.

When the fourth uncle heard her say this, his eyes were shining, and he lowered his voice and said, "Wuya can find ginseng, what can you sell to Lu Yunian?" Let's dig it ourselves, that's a million profits. ”

"Fourth, don't fight the ghost idea, if the ancestral hall knows, you will inevitably be punished." The third uncle said slowly.

"Just you talk about the ancestral hall all day long," the fourth uncle put down his chopsticks very dissatisfied, hugged his arms to his chest and muttered: "Wuya got back ginseng, I don't know, if I knew." What are you waiting for three days? I got up early to go up the mountain to dig, and it was cheaper for more than a year? ”

"Hmph......" Uncle Lu Jiangshan snorted in his nostrils, and even shook his body for a moment before saying, "Have you fainted these days?" On the day Wuya came back from the mountain, she said that she was digging ginseng, and the seventh uncle came to her to discuss going up the mountain on the first day. ”

The fourth uncle's face was hot when he was asked by the uncle, and he smiled a little embarrassedly and said, "What is this big brother, who has been working early and working late these days, how can I have time to ask her." ”

"It's not that it's too late, it's that I didn't plan to ask!" The uncle draped the short hair on his shoulders, picked up the straw sandals on the ground, patted the soles of the shoes on the soil, and said with a smile while putting on the shoes: "There was a rain the day before yesterday and a day off." ”

"Lu Jiangshan," the fourth uncle angrily called out the uncle's name directly, "What do you mean by this?" I want ginseng, isn't it also for my family? How do you say as if you're not in this family? ”

The uncle stood up and looked at him condescendingly, licked his dry lips and spitted, "Fourth, don't talk about the sky, I'm just poor, and I won't do tricks." ”

After speaking, she walked out without looking back, and the eldest lady looked at the faces of a room of people, and quickly served the food and went out.

Lu Wanxing didn't speak, that day the people in the village went up the mountain to look for her, and a lot of people with foreign surnames went, the third uncle, the fourth uncle, and the uncle came back from work, and they didn't go up the mountain to find her at all.

Probably they all wanted her to die outside, so that they could leave two rooms for them to share.

Even if Lu Wanxing returned home, only Lu Wanqing and Lu Wanqian came to her all night, still to grab ginseng.

Her uncle and aunt were completely blind to her life and death. On the second day, they didn't ask a word, but the third and fourth aunts had a big quarrel with her. Now I heard that there was really ginseng, and I began to complain that the news was late. Such a person is really the best! Listening to them, I felt that my heart was blocked, Lu Wanxing stood up and said, "I'm full," and got off the table.

"Wuya, don't leave yet, let's study this matter carefully." The fourth uncle still shouted behind him.

The fourth uncle proposed this idea, but the third aunt was moved, and she also followed and said, "Wanxing, your fourth uncle called you!" Why are you so ignorant? Don't wait for the adults to finish speaking before leaving? ”

Lu Wanxing paused, looked back at the fourth uncle with an expectant face, and said very firmly: "Originally, I dug up a ginseng, but I lost it at home, our family just doesn't have that financial luck, and it's useless to go, it's better to help the seventh grandfather, if the clan gets ginseng, you can also give our family a little red." ”

"Why is this girl so brainless," the fourth uncle looked left and right helplessly, expecting to get the support of Lu Jiangshan and Lu Jianghe, but the two brothers were bored and didn't speak. He had no choice but to say to himself, "What year is it now?" How can all of them belong to the clan, third sister-in-law, you say, the money for the eggs and mountain goods sold by our own family, not all of them go into our own family, who still pays it to the clan! What's the difference? Isn't it also a mountain product? Whoever gets it is whom? Why don't you understand this? ”

The third aunt has always been worried about the lost ginseng, and when she heard what the fourth uncle said, she also echoed, "What the fourth said makes sense, the evening star knows where the place is, I see that I will lead your third uncle in the afternoon, and the fourth uncle will go on a trip, if there is, there will be none." ”

"Yes, what the third sister-in-law said is right." As soon as the two of them sang and harmonized, the uncle snorted very displeased and walked out of the kitchen.
