Chapter 3 Getting Rich
"Brother and sister, I'm really sorry! I'll leave you alone here to cook the food. ”
After a few years, I also knew what kind of person the Niu family was, relying on giving birth to the grandson of the Lin family, usually when I said that I wanted to work, I went to the toilet, and when the work was done, the person came back.
Mrs. Shen also turned a blind eye, but she didn't see it.
"Okay, hurry up and get ready to eat, take advantage of the good weather in the past two days, hurry up and turn the ground up, don't delay the growth of the wheat."
Old Lin spoke, and everyone hurriedly finished the meal and went to the ground with tools.
"Big girl, second girl, you two, you can't be lazy, let me see you two dead girls lazy, come back and beat you to death, after brushing the dishes, wash the clothes, feed the pigs and chickens, and then go to beat pigweed for the pigs, if you don't finish the work before you come back, don't eat at noon."
After Mrs. Shen finished speaking, she was about to tell Jinbao a few words, but when she turned around, she found that Jinbao had already run out to play, so she had to give up and go down to the ground.
After yesterday's incident, Er Ya didn't want to take care of the big girl, so she shook the pot by herself, poured the shabu water into the basin, put some pigweed chopped yesterday, and went to feed the pigs.
The eldest girl wanted to defend herself, but looking at the back of the second girl, she stomped her feet and turned around to feed the chickens.
Finally busy, Er Ya carried a basket to go out to play pigweed, from wearing to the present, this is the first time I went out, looking at the mountains not far away, the clouds and mist are shrouded, the mountain peaks are looming in the clouds, and there is a frightened rooster cry and an excited dog barking in the ears, whose dog is chasing the chicken?
Along a dirt road, slowly walk up the mountain, here there are a lot of people up the mountain, food is scarce, can only let some small strength, can not go down to work in the field children pick some edible wild vegetables mixed in the cornmeal, can finally fill the stomach.
I didn't go far, I saw a group of village children squatting on the ground digging shepherd's cabbage in front of me, this season's shepherd's cabbage is fresh and tender, used to stir-fry vegetables, cold dressing, or use to boil soup.
Erya looked at the dozen or so children squeezed in a small area, and didn't want to go over, at this time, a seven or eight-year-old girl saw Erya and shouted: "Erya, come on, there are many wild vegetables here."
This is Lin Xiaoyu, the granddaughter of Grandpa Uncle's family, who has always been good friends with Erya, and a person next to her touches her
"Look at her dirty, my grandmother said she wouldn't let me play with her, and if you want her to come over, I won't let you dig the vegetables in this place."
Hearing Lin Xiaoyu call her, Erya just raised her foot, and heard others say this, not wanting to burden Lin Xiaoyu, so she smiled at Xiaoyu and said, "It's okay, you dig here, I'm out to cut pigweed."
After speaking, walking along the road, the body of the mountain contains huge wealth, rare medicinal materials, all kinds of mountain delicacies, as long as you are good at excavating, you will not be left empty-handed.
Dashan is like this, it is sincere, simple, selfless, and dedicated.
It has come from time immemorial, nurtured our ancestors, and influenced generations of people.
In this era of famine, if it were not for this mountain, I don't know how many people would starve to death.
Erya walked along the path all the way, and after walking for a while, she saw a wild purple-leaved plum, touched her unfed stomach, quickly put down the basket, climbed to the tree, picked one up and put it in her mouth.
The leaves of the purple-leaved plum grow very beautifully, and there are purple-leaved plums next to the purple-red leaves.
The taste of purple leaf plum, sweet and sour, in modern times, is planted as an ornamental tree next to the road.
I only ate one, and I saw a few children coming under the tree.
"Brother, look, the plum tree I just found was stolen by Erya."
A little boy pointed at Erya and said angrily.
What? Erya thought to herself: I'll only eat one, okay! Before she could react, a little boy picked up a long branch and began to whip her, and Erya was afraid of being hurt, so she could only come down first.
"Lin Nan, this tree is not your own, it grows in this mountain, anyone who sees it can pick it and eat it, why do you say that I stole yours."
Erya angrily said that the boy who was a little older was Lin Nan's brother Lin Dong, and when he heard this, he pushed Erya down with a hard push.
"Lin Erya, you dare to talk to my brother like this, you are bold, you owe a beating, right? Brothers. ”
After speaking, he punched and kicked Erya on the ground, Erya was too thin and weak, and he couldn't resist at all, so he could only hold his head and endure it silently.
Seeing that Erya didn't dare to resist, Lin Dong stopped, this time I will teach you a lesson, see if you dare to talk to our brothers like this next time, don't hurry up. “
Er Ya was beaten, the scab on his head just knotted fell off again, and all the footprints on his body were kicked, thinking, just a rebuttal just now, and he was beaten.
Walking on the road, Erya was angry, why did she come to this poor and remote place, the people here are so arrogant and unreasonable.
The more I thought about it, the more uncomfortable I became, and I cried on the ground......"
Hey, little sister, what's wrong with you."
Erya looked up and saw a boy about seven or eight years old, his complexion was fair, his facial features were delicate with a touch of handsomeness, and the temperament exuded from his body was not from the village.
Liu Jingyu saw the little girl in front of him, with a thin body, a pair of big black eyes on a palm-sized face that was crying silently.
"Little sister, are you being bullied? Say to me, I'll go and avenge you. ”
Erya shook her head, wiped her tears and stood up and was about to leave, Liu Jingyu hurriedly grabbed her, "Let's make friends, okay?" My name is Liu Jingyu, what's your name? ”
didn't wait for Erya to answer, only to hear a voice from afar, "Young master, young master, where are you?" ”
As soon as Liu Jingyu heard someone shouting, he hurriedly took off a piece of jade pendant on his body and put it in Erya's hand, "This is my thing, you come to Hongsheng Restaurant to play with me when the time comes, show them the jade pendant, and you can find me, I am very familiar with their boss." ”
After finishing speaking, he left in a hurry, and Erya looked at the jade pendant in his hand and put it in his pocket without care.
After crying for a while, the grievances of the past two days were vented a little, to see if it was early, and to remember what Mrs. Shen said before leaving.
Erya, who didn't want to go hungry, cheered up and continued to look for food to fill her stomach.
Afraid of running into the group just now, she didn't dare to wander around the foot of the mountain, and made up her mind to walk more in the mountain, walk and walk, and before she knew it, she would go deep into the mountains.
As he was walking forward, Erya suddenly saw some red flowers in the bushes that were a little familiar, and hurriedly ran over, brushed aside the bushes, and finally saw the true face of the plant.
I saw a red five-petal flower, and there was a circle of white around the stamen, which made Er Ya more and more sure of it, and her voice trembled with excitement, "Ginseng...... This is wild ginseng!
