Chapter 50: Digging Yams

However, Xiang Lao Er quickly recovered his spirits again, and it may not be difficult for Xiang Tiange to become an official, because women in the current dynasty can also participate in the imperial examination and become an official in the court!

Their old Xiang family has Xiang Tiange, a smart head who has been favored by God, maybe the old Xiang family can really be an official!

So Xiang Er became excited, and he asked, "Yaya, you just said that this is called yam, which can be used as medicine?" Does that mean it can be sold at pharmacies for money? ”

Xiang Tiange nodded: "Yes!" ”

Xiang Erlang excitedly called Xiang Da Lang Xiang Erlang and Xiang San Lang on the side to also lift the hoe and dig it together, this good thing that can be sold for money, can not stay in this mountain for a long time!

Soon, this piece of yam was dug up by several people, but because the digging was not very skillful, there were still some rhizomes broken in the soil, of course, a few people didn't care much about those!

Because they've dug up enough! The backpacks brought by a few people couldn't be filled.

So Xiang Lao Er commanded Xiang Saburo to stay here and guard, they first carried these yams back, and then came over to carry the second trip.

Of course Xiang Saburo has no opinion, it's a pity that they worked so hard to find the things they dug up, and they were taken by others!

Back at home, Jiang was directing Xiang Shilang and them to go to the village to find Xiang Tiange, Jiang and a few people came back from the vegetable garden and didn't see her in the room, and thought she ran to play with friends, and wanted Xiang Shilang and them to go to find her and come back for breakfast.

"Yaya, did you follow your second uncle and them to the wasteland at the foot of Dali Mountain?" Jiang looked at Xiang Tiange, whose hair was messed up and his clothes were also stained with mud, although it was a question sentence, he did say it in an affirmative tone.

Dali Mountain is where Xiang Tiange just went to them, and it is precisely because there is a big wild pear tree there that the villagers call it Dali Mountain.

"Mm-hmm, grandma, we've found something good!"

Xiang Tiange crossed the second uncle, ran to Jiang's side, hugged her and said to her.

When Xiang Tiange spoke, Xiang Lao Er had already unloaded the back basket full of yams behind him to the ground, and then turned around to help Xiang Da Lang and Xiang Erlang also unload the back basket full of yams behind them.

At this time, the few people in the courtyard who had never seen the yam saw what they had brought back.

Yan asked himself with some curiosity: "Master, what is this that you carried back?" ”

Xiang Er carefully took out the yam in the back basket and responded to his daughter-in-law, he said: "Yaya said that this is called 'yam', which is a kind of medicinal herb and can be sold to the pharmacy!" ”

"Herbs?"

A few people who didn't know looked at the yams that they took out in the yard, and they were a little puzzled, this is a medicinal herb?

Xiang Tiange raised his head and added, "It's also edible!" ”

"This is a medicinal herb, and it can still be eaten? How do you want to eat it? Jiang asked.

"You can cook soup, stew bone broth and stew chicken soup, you can make up for your body!" Xiang Tiange recalled the contents of the book and swallowed his saliva.

"You little girl, you know how to eat."

Seeing this, Wang Shi next to him smiled and stretched out his fingertips and lightly tapped her forehead.

Xiang Tiange shook his head and said: "'The people take food as the sky', 'food', of course, is very important!" ”

Thinking of something again, Xiang Tiange said to them: "Grandma, didn't grandpa say that he didn't know what to plant on the wasteland that was opened?" Why don't you plant this yam! The book says that this yam is easy to grow, plant it and water it with some water, apply some fertilizer and it will grow quickly, and when it is planted in spring, we will be able to harvest a lot of yam next year! ”

When Jiang heard her words, he looked at the yam in the courtyard that had been cleared from the back basket by Xiang Er, and asked, "Does the book say how to grow this yam?" ”

"Yes! The book says that you can use this stem, or you can use the yam bean seeds that bear fruit, it's all right! ”

"Yam beans?"

Xiang Tiange opened his hand to describe to her, "Yes, it's the yam bean, grandma, you didn't see it, I don't know, there are a lot of yam beans growing on the vines of the yam, and there are a lot of dense yam beans!" ”

Jiang Shi was immersed for a while, cleared out the back basket to the second child and a few of them, and then walked to Dali Mountain on his back, so Jiang turned back to Yan and said: "Second brother, you take Shiro and Goro with the back basket on their backs, go to Dali Mountain and pick back all the yam beans that Yaya said!" ”

Today is Wang's turn to make breakfast, and Xiang Er's has just set off not long ago, so Jiang ordered Yan to take Xiang Shilang and Xiang Wulang to catch up.

Seeing that Xiang Tiange still wanted to go with her, Jiang Shi grabbed her: "Now that the sun is very dry, don't go with you, go wash up, change into clean clothes and prepare for breakfast!" ”

Xiang Tiange had no choice but to stay at home and didn't go with him.

She also wanted to say that she could go with her, and she could find out if there was any yam in the mountains!

When Xiang Tiange returned to the house and changed his clothes, Jiang called out the old head.

"You go to the old beef stall in the town to weigh some bones and come back, stew a yam of this yam at night to taste it, if it's delicious, wash them today, let the eldest and the third they can also provoke the county to sell them tomorrow."

Lao Xiangtou was a little confused, although he was in the house just now, he still heard the conversation of several people.

"Didn't you say it's still medicine? Sold at a drugstore, right? This has to eat one, how much money is there, this is eating money! ”

Lao Xiangtou's tone was full of heartache.

Jiang Shi glanced at him, "Do you know how much this sells for?" Your heart hurts?! ”

Old Xiangtou: .......

It's because I don't know that my heart hurts!

If this one can be sold for a dozen or dozens of copper plates, then he must not die of pain?!

Jiang didn't care about him, and said directly: "Your baby granddaughter wants to eat yam stewed bone broth, so you say you want to buy it?!" ”

"Go, go, can't I go?"

Lao Xiangtou muttered while going back to the house to count the money: "I know that I will use Yaya to press me, and it will take more than two quarters of an hour to go from Peach Blossom Village to the town......"

Jiang naturally heard what he muttered, but she didn't say anything more, just lowered her head and continued to pick up the sole of the shoe in her hand that was only molded and continued to accept it.

Xiang Tiange, who came out after going back to the house and changing into clothes, naturally didn't know that her grandfather had gone to the town to buy her bones and come back to stew soup, she grabbed a bunch of hair and said to Jiang: "Grandma, can I cut my hair?" It's been so long, and it often sticks to my mouth! ”

Jiang Shi glanced up and said with a smile: "No need to cut, no need to cut, come here, grandma will help you tie a beautiful braid!" ”
