Chapter 119: Qiao's mother knows
She squatted down, brushed the soil from the root knots with her hands, and looked at it carefully.
She had only seen such a thing as ginseng in books, but she had not seen it in reality.
The book says that ginseng is expensive, and if it is old, it is even more precious.
Perhaps, it is more expensive than this whole piece of astragalus combined!
"It's a long mustache." Josie touched it gently.
Although Qiao Nan didn't know about ginseng, he had also heard of the name of ginseng, and the old people in the village said that in the past, the landlord would enjoy it, and he would drink it with ginseng.
He was pleasantly surprised: "Sister, can this thing be sold now?" ”
Josie nodded heavily, "Of course." ”
Just as Josie was about to reach out and dig, Qin Jiashu, who was standing on the side, spoke.
"This is not ginseng, this is mountain ginseng."
Josie and Jonan turned their heads in unison: "What? ”
Qin Jiashu leaned closer and said again: "According to the record in the book, it should be right. Mountain ginseng is small and has long whiskers, while ginseng is hypertrophied and short. ”
Qiao Nan immediately looked over: "This one doesn't look big, but it has to be very long!" ”
Josie couldn't help but be a little surprised.
She asked another question: "What did you read from that book about Chinese medicine?" ”
“…… Well. Qin Jiashu did not deny it.
He bent down, sniffed at the ginseng that was still half buried in the soil, and confirmed again: "It should be right." ”
Qiao Nan's eyes widened: "Brother Jiashu, what do you smell?" ”
"Smell it." Qin Jiashu is 100% sure: "Ginseng has a big taste, but mountain ginseng has a small taste." Even if you smell it closely, this one has a light taste and no bitterness, and it is a mountain ginseng. ”
Watching Qin Jiashu pat the soil on his knees, the admiration in Qiao Nan's eyes became stronger and stronger.
He star-eyed: "Brother Jiashu, you know a lot!" You know these things! ”
Qin Jiashu was embarrassed to be praised, he secretly skipped Josie's face, and when he saw that Josie was also surprised, he scratched his head, coughed lightly, and said lightly: "It's all in books, it's not a big deal." ”
After digging astragalus last time and going back, he studied the book day and night.
In order to have another chance to talk to Josie about this.
That book wasn't as fun as the villain's book book, and a lot of things were so boring that he read it almost with his hair stiff.
Moreover, there are quite a few words that he doesn't know, and he specially borrowed a dictionary from Wa Changle and flipped through them one by one.
Now it seems that all the hard work has not been in vain.
It finally came in handy.
Hearing Qin Jiashu's words, Qiao Xi suddenly felt ashamed.
As a person who works in the health center, she has more leisure time than Qin Jiashu, but her research on that book is far less profound than Qin Jiashu.
It seems that she will have to work hard in the future.
On the other hand, Josie couldn't stop feeling happy in her heart.
She looked at Qin Jiashu and became proud in an instant, worthy of being the person she liked, that is, capable.
Everything, everything, simply!
After confirming what it was, Qin Jiashu went to pick up the branches, tore off the corner of his clothes, and made a few fine gadgets.
Just as he was about to dig, he thought of something and turned his head to look at Josie.
"If you dig it, will it still be ......?"
Josie also reacted at this time, she was not very sure, but she also refused to let go of this opportunity.
"Then I'll do it."
If the ginseng she dug with her own hands can still grow, it will be against the sky, what will she do with picking vegetables in the future, just dig the ginseng!
Qiao Nan didn't know what Qiao Xi and Qin Jiashu meant, she only thought that her sister was a girl and her hands were meticulous, so she came to do this job.
He saw that Josie had dirt on his hands and blamed himself: "Sister, why don't I come." ”
"No, you go dig astragalus, it's not easy to come up, let's not waste time." Josie was careful under his hands, and soon, a thin layer of sweat broke out on his forehead.
Qiao Nan saw that her sister was working, how could she be idle, so she immediately took a shovel and went to dig up astragalus.
Qin Jiashu didn't want to go, but Josie opened his mouth to urge him.
"You go dig too."
Qin Jiashu agreed, and then walked to the closest position to Josie.
This makes it easier for Josie to rush over as fast as he can to protect Josie when he needs him.
Josie actually didn't want Qin Jiashu to leave.
She had just expressed her heart to him, and naturally hoped to get along with him more.
However, she hoped that his time would not be wasted, and that he could dig more astragalus, so that he could make more money.
She is not stupid, she has already guessed that the reason why he, as a responsible man, does not dare to agree to be with her must also have financial considerations.
Carefully digging the mountain ginseng out of the soil, Josie did not rush to clean it up, but called Qin Jiashu.
"My hands are sore." She shook her hand and said in a coquettish tone, "You can clean it up." ”
Qin Jiashu didn't think much about it, and immediately picked up those tools he made and started working.
Josie's legs were numb, and she stood up and stomped her feet.
Qin Jiashu saw it in his eyes, immediately put down his tools, approached the forest and moved a stone over.
Holding it in his arms, he pulled his clothes and wiped them, making sure that the surface was clean, and then placed the stone in front of Josie.
After that, I went on to clean up the mountain ginseng.
Josie tilted her head.
Hey?
Does this mean that she should sit on a rock?
She tried to sit down, but saw that Qin Jiashu didn't react otherwise, it should be that this stone was not of other use.
Josie's heart suddenly warmed.
At the same time, I think it's fun.
Qin Jiashu is really a typical soft-hearted and hard-mouthed person.
I was still talking coldly to him in front of me, and now I saw that her legs were numb, so I immediately went to get a stone and let her sit down.
Every inch of mountain ginseng is precious, and Qin Jiashu cleans up the ground very carefully.
At first, Josie wanted Qin Jiashu to also participate, so that after selling the ginseng, he could give Qin Jiashu a sum of money.
But now seeing Qin Jiashu's cautious movements, she found that Qin Jiashu really had to do this.
Whether it's her or Qiao Nan, they can't do it so finely.
……
At the same time.
Qiao's mother carried two sausages and walked home quickly.
The sausage was given by a family in the mountains, and that family had a son who was a soldier in the south, and from time to time he sent some good things to the family.
And the Qiao family has sent vegetables to the mountains these days, so that they can eat fresh vegetables, and they will take out anything good for Qiao's mother.
Last time it was cherries, this time it's sausage.
Qiao's mother has already asked how to make sausages delicious, and she can't wait to make them for her daughter after getting them.
"Sissy! Sissy come out! ”
She shouted a few times, and when she saw that no one answered, she called Qiao Nan again.
Still no one answered.
Is it out?
Just thinking about it, Sun Hailan came back from outside with her waist on her back.
She also heard Qiao's mother shouting Qiaoxi, and just wanted to be cheap, but she was afraid that Qiao's mother would treat her, so she had to calm down and say, "Someone saw that Qiaoxi followed Qin Jiashu up the mountain!" ”
