Chapter 4: Treasures in the Mountains

Ye Tiantian covered the traces of the fire with dry branches and stones, and thought in his heart that this was a good place, and everyone should make good use of it before they found out.

Thinking that Ye Xiaozhou was still young, Ye Tiantian didn't tell her what he thought, but just asked Xiaozhou not to tell the Ye family what happened.

Ye Xiaozhou nodded firmly with his eyes, and said seriously: "Sister, I know, I won't say it." ”

The two sisters crept back to the kitchen, the Ye family hadn't gotten up yet, and no one knew what happened last night.

Early the next morning, Li Shi walked into the kitchen angrily and yelled at Ye Tiantian and Ye Xiaozhou: "I haven't gotten up to do things, I've really raised you two for nothing!" ”

Ye Tiantian frowned, it seemed that the Li family didn't want to let himself live in peace for a day.

Taking a deep breath to suppress his emotions, Ye Tiantian pretended to be weak: "Auntie, it's not that we don't want to do things, it's that we're too hungry and don't have the strength." “

Hearing Ye Tiantian's words, Li suddenly became happy, and said triumphantly: "Wasn't it very backbone yesterday? Listen to me, you two have to obey me for a day in this house! ”

Ye Tiantian held back the nausea in his heart, and said pitifully: "Auntie, I was not good yesterday, I woke up and was confused, don't worry about me, I'll take the boat to pick up branches now." “

When Li saw the two sisters who were 'shivering' in the corner, he was very merciful and did not continue to embarrass them, nodded his head, shook the fat on his face, waved his hand, and let them leave.

Although Ye Xiaozhou on the side didn't understand why her sister did this, after last night, Ye Xiaozhou thought in her heart that her sister must have a way.

Ye Tiantian took Ye Xiaozhou by the hand, lowered his head and left the kitchen, and as soon as he left the Ye family, he couldn't help laughing, and sighed: "If I hadn't cooked and acted in my last life, I would have won the Oscar, I am really a genius in everything." Hahahahaha. ”

Ye Xiaozhou looked at Ye Tiantian with a puzzled expression, I don't know why my sister became strange after waking up this time, and often said to herself, my sister won't get hysteria, right?

Thinking of this, Ye Xiaozhou pulled the corner of Ye Tiantian's clothes and asked cautiously, "Sister, are you okay?" ”

Ye Tiantian looked at Ye Xiaozhou's worried face, and laughed until his stomach hurt, this sister is really his own pistachio.

Knowing what Xiaozhou was worried about, Ye Tiantian comforted Xiaozhou while rubbing his stomach and said, "Sister is fine, Xiaozhou don't worry, Xiaozhou is obedient......"

Although he still didn't understand much, Ye Xiaozhou nodded obediently, as long as he could be with his sister, he would be very happy.

Walking up the hill along the route last night, Ye Tiantian walked very slowly, carefully observing the various plants encountered along the way, one of the main reasons why she was a famous chef of Sichuan cuisine in her previous life was that she was very sensitive to ingredients

Suddenly, Ye Tiantian was attracted by the dead leaves in the grass on the hillside, Ye Tiantian stretched out his hand and gently opened a few pieces, and saw the yellow leaves hidden under the dead leaves and cried out in surprise.

This inconspicuous guy is a baby, I didn't expect there to be such a good thing on this mountain, Ye Xiaozhou asked suspiciously: "Sister, what is this?" ”

"This is called Pueraria lobata, which is a Chinese herbal medicine, which can relieve muscle fever and reduce fever, diaphragm, quench thirst, and raise yang and stop diarrhea. We can look for more and sell it to Chinese medicine shops at a good price. ”

Ye Tiantian patiently explained to Xiaozhou, and the smile on the corner of his mouth couldn't be stopped.

Xiaozhou's eyes lit up after hearing that he could sell for money, he didn't expect his sister to know so much, but he didn't think much about it, so he helped Ye Tiantian find Gegen together.

Ye Tiantian looked at the little figure who was seriously looking for it, and a warm current surged in his heart, this sister believed wholeheartedly no matter what she said, she must take her away from the Ye family.

After searching in the grass for a long time, Ye Xiaozhou didn't see Ge Gen, she hung her head and said, "Sister, why can't I find it?" ”

Ye Tiantian looked at his newly found kudzu, put it back again, lightly covered it with some leaves, turned to Xiaozhou and said, "Xiaozhou has not looked carefully, kudzu roots grow in damp places, you have to look for these places." ”

Xiaozhou nodded, and after a while, he found the kudzu that Ye Tiantian was hiding, jumped up happily, and shouted: "Sister, sister, look, is this it, I found it!" ”

Ye Tiantian looked at the happy little man gently, nodded, and thought about what he should do with the things he found.

In the Ye family, the two sisters definitely can't eat good things, and Ye Xiaozhou is growing up, Ye Tiantian thought about whether he could find more ingredients in this mountain, first, so that Xiaozhou could eat when he was hungry, and second, it was possible to exchange some money in the market to plan for his Xiaozhou in the future.

Thinking of these Ye Tiantian more seriously to find it, the hard work paid off, in a small forest halfway up the mountainside, Ye Tiantian found the ripe peppercorns.

In this era, people have never used spices in cooking, but for Sichuan chefs, Sichuan pepper is already very familiar, Ye Tiantian thought this was an opportunity, so he picked some and put them in the back basket.

Unconsciously, at noon, Ye Tiantian had almost finished looking around the entire road up the mountain, and thought that Xiaozhou should be hungry, so he returned to the place where he burned chestnuts last night.

The two of them picked up chestnuts and set up a stove, Ye Tiantian poked the chestnuts with a branch and said, "Xiaozhou, I'm going to the market tomorrow, you wait for me at home, okay?" ”

Xiaozhou stood up anxiously, crying: "Sister, don't take me with you, I'm going." ”

Ye Tiantian saw Xiaozhou who was about to cry, and said earnestly: "It's not that Sister Ah won't take you there, I'm sneaking out, and my aunt will definitely not spare me when I go home, Sister Ah doesn't want you to be punished." ”

"I don't, sister, I'm not afraid, can you take me there, Xiaozhou doesn't want to be home alone." Xiaozhou rushed to Ye Tiantian's side, tears flickering in his eyes.

Ye Tiantian's heart was horizontal, thinking that it was a big deal to block himself in front of Ye Xiaozhou, he stretched out his hand to wipe away Xiaozhou's tears, nodded and said, "Okay, Sister will take you there." ”

After the two of them had eaten and cleaned up, Ye Tiantian remembered that he had recently told the Li family that he was here to pick up branches, so he hid kudzu and peppercorns at the bottom of the back basket, picked up some small branches and covered them with a layer of leaves.

After returning to Ye's house, Ye Tiantian had just entered the kitchen and poured out the branches, and hid the kudzu root and peppercorns behind the pyre, when Li's sour voice came.

"Yo, you two still know to come back, I thought you were dead after going out for so long?"
