5 Chapter 5

Back at home, Li Xiaohan picked up a wooden plate and said to Wang, "Mother, you help me go to the kitchen to dig up some grass and wood ashes." ”

"Hey." The Wang family is now obedient to her daughter, and besides, she is now restless, so she is easy to think cranky if she doesn't do anything.

"What does Sister Xiaohan want to do with the ashes?" Li Changrong asked. I don't know when, this cousin, who has never seen it with her eyes, seems to have changed a lot, and because of this, the separation of the family has a little more loss. Li Cairong felt that some things were beyond his expectations.

Li Xiaohan looked at this cousin, the most prominent person in the Li family, with a smile in his eyes, and did not avoid it, "Brother Changrong, I scratched my leg when I went up the mountain this morning, and now I am in a faint pain, go to the river to wash it, and take some grass and wood ash to paint." ”

In ancient times, there was a saying that grass and trees were smeared with ash to stop bleeding, and Li Xiaohan said this, which seemed to be no problem.

Sure enough, Li Cairong couldn't guess whether what Li Xiaohan said was true or false, and frowned slightly, "Then Sister Xiaohan, pay more attention." ”

"Hey, thank you Brother Cairong for your concern." Li Xiaohan picked up his wooden plate, "Mother, let's go." ”

Wang was afraid of Li Cairong, the grandson of the Li family and a scholar, she knew that her daughter was not scratched, but she didn't know why her daughter lied, and she was afraid that Li Cairong would see it, so she picked up a handful of plant ashes with a dustpan and hurriedly bowed her head and went out.

Li Cairong looked at Wang's appearance and dispelled the doubts in his heart: What is the use of Li Xiaohan being a little spicy and clever, but she is just a woman, with parents like Wang and Li Xiandong, no matter how spicy she is, she has lost the largest share of the family property that belongs to the eldest son and has been divided.

Li Xiaohan didn't know what Li Cairong was thinking, the two came to the river, now is not the time to wash clothes and vegetables, there is no one by the river, but Li Xiaohan still found a place where there are few people on weekdays.

"Xiao Han, what are you looking for earth ash?" No one, Wang relaxed a lot and asked curiously.

"Wash the seeds." Li Xiaohan took out the notoginseng seeds wrapped in leaves in his arms and put them into a wooden plate to scrub gently.

The seeds of Panax notoginseng are difficult to preserve, so it is best to choose the full and ripe fruits of three- to four-year-old plants, wash off the peel, dry them naturally, and then soak them in 60 times with "root peptide" or "sterilization king" for disinfection. However, the conditions are not good now, so I can only wash and disinfect with plant ash and try to preserve it. (1)

The seeds of Panax notoginseng are easy to lose their vitality after drying, so it is necessary to sow them as soon as possible, "Tomorrow we will plant this seed in my father's woodland." ”

"This ...... You can also grow your own notoginseng. Wang felt incredulous, but couldn't help but be hopeful.

"Who knows if you can grow it?" Li Xiaohan laughed while his subordinates kept washing the Sanqi seeds one by one, "You have to give it a try, and there is no loss anyway." If it comes out, we'll make a lot of money. ”

Try it, there is hope, I haven't tried, there is no hope at all.

Wang's heart was hot, she was suppressed by her stepmother-in-law for more than ten years after she got married, and concession and cowardice had already been carved into her breath.

But at this moment, Li Xiaohan's words made her heart become hot: Yes, give it a try, in case it succeeds.

The fruit of Panax notoginseng is very small, a lot, but the two mothers and daughters are careful and ingenious people, although it is very abrasive to wash this small fruit, but quickly the seeds are cleaned, and then put into the grass and trees to soak in the gray water.

Li Xiaohan made a rough estimate that the inflorescence of the three-year-old Panax notoginseng had more than 200 small flowers, and after the fruit, one fruit had one to three seeds, and they picked six Panax notoginseng plants this time, and estimated that there were more than 1,000 seeds.

I just don't know how many sprouts will sprout in the end.

"Mother, let's go, go home." Li Xiaohan straightened up and said.

It's just that when it comes out, the seeds can be hidden in the arms, but it's not so convenient to go back.

Li Xiaohan thought about what kind of excuse to perfunctory the past.

However, the goddess of luck favored her, and there happened to be no one in the Li family's house. At this time, the Li Cairong brothers were going to study, and Chen took his daughter-in-law to the backyard vegetable garden.

Li Xiaohan took an arrow step, and even the wooden plate was brought into Li Xiandong's Wang family's room.

Fortunately, this plate is Li Xiaohan's own plate, otherwise it would be difficult to explain.

In the evening, Li Xiandong and Li Shengli came back, and the Chen family brought over the rations of Li Xiandong's three people, and the family silver was handed over, and the family was finished.

The construction money of five hangs plus the later two hangs of the family silver.

Seven hanging money. Is it enough?

Li Xiaohan didn't know enough about the current prices, but looking at the faces of Li Xiandong and Wang, he knew that the money was not enough.

However, people can still be suffocated by urine.

I hope that this Sanqi can make money, if not, go to the city with me, see what medicinal materials I know, and what ways to make money in the city.

Thinking so, Li Xiaohan said, "Dad, let's take Sanqi to the city medicine hall tomorrow to see how much Sanqi can sell." ”

"Uh-huh." The helpless Li Xiandong and Wang nodded.

Yes, they still have Sanqi. There is hope!
