Chapter 202

202. Go up the mountain and harvest

Lin Qingxi came out of her home and walked past the fields and went straight up the mountain. After entering the mountain, she became more comfortable. She had never come up since she became pregnant. It has been a year since she calculated the time.

Lin Qingxi walked towards the depths and encountered many good things on the way, including walnut trees, chestnut balls, wild pear trees, pine nut trees, etc. Some were already ripe, and some were still raw. She planned to say to Zhou Guitang at that time and lead the villagers in the brigade to pick them together. She secretly remembered the location of these fruits and headed inside without looking back.

During the year when Lin Qingxi did not go up the mountain, the villagers in the village did not enter the mountain much. Even when they came, they just picked up some firewood and dug some wild vegetables outside, and they didn't dare to go inside.

After this year's reproduction, there are more and more animals on the mountain, but there are many people outside, so they dare not come out, so they all hide inside. Only some "stupid" pheasants, hares, etc. dare to take a walk outside, and then they are caught by the villagers and taken home to make a dish.

Lin Qingxi "sees" many wild boars and wild goats, sika deer, badgers, wolf and weasels along the way. There are even more pheasants and hares like small hills. She packed some into the space every time and planned to go in and pack them out at night.

In addition to animals, she also saw some common herbs, leaving seeds in them, and she collected them all.

After walking for about an hour, Lin Qingxi came to a big tree, with vines and weeds taller than people nearby. She carefully pushed away the vines and weeds, and walked under the tree and saw seven or eight ginseng.

This cluster of ginseng was discovered the year she first came. She relied on her mental strength that this place would not be easily discovered, so she did not dig out the ginseng and kept it for several years to grow.

Now that she needs these ginseng, she plans to dig them back. Although her elder brother Lin Qingping has transferred to work in the imperial capital, it is not as dangerous as before, but there is no way, who asked her to marry a soldier.

When he returned home, Zhou's father was the last one to come in. As soon as he entered, he couldn't wait to close the door, which made Zhou's mother inexplicably look.

"Okay, Xi Yatou's arrangement is very good, I will just follow you," Zhou's mother agreed to the daughter-in-law's arrangement unconditionally, so no one else would have any objections. It is because there is only such a little bit, and there is no stinginess when there is too much. Moreover, the people who benefited are closely related to their own family, and they have nothing to say.

"You are back, come and have dinner. We two have prepared the meal today." Zhou's mother was about to ask Zhou's father what he was nervous when she heard Grandma Zhou's voice coming from the main hall. She could only suppress what she wanted to say, wash the handle by the well, and go to the main hall for dinner.

It was two hours later that she dug out the ginseng. Three of the seven ginseng plants were more than one hundred years old, two more than fifty years old, and two more than ten years old. As soon as these two ginseng plants were dug out, they were transplanted into the space by her.

Moreover, although Lin Qingping's body has recovered almost, many hidden injuries have remained. She wanted to use ginseng to make some pills to regulate her body and send some to Lin Qingping and Zhou Mingbai.

"I'm getting a good harvest today. Dad, you'll take a pheasant to the uncle's house later. Then my uncle and second uncle also send a pheasant to the hare to each. There are many rabbits, and my other three apprentices also send a rabbit to the house. The rest will be kept. In the next ten days, the children will come and make up for the children."

"Okay, Dad, you can deal with one pheasant and hare later. Let's eat it tonight," Lin Qingxi went to wash the handles again, and came back to have a meal.

As soon as the basket was started, Zhou's father knew that his daughter-in-law had gained a lot today. Although she was covered with herbs, others didn't know that he knew that the weight was not the weight of herbs, but he didn't say anything.

Zhou's father is an honest man. He doesn't know how to speak, but he is willing to do things and feels sorry for others. Seeing that Zhou's mother said, how dare he say no, he didn't even think about it and directly "snatch" Lin Qingxi's basket and carry it on his back.

Lin Qingxi had already made arrangements for these things. The reason why she didn't bring out more pheasants and hares was because the quantity she took out was just right now, and she gave it to someone with good relationships, and the ones that remained happened to be eaten by her own family.

Zhou's father followed Zhou's mother with a basket on his back. Lin Qingxi and Zhou Mingmin walked beside her, watching Zhou's mother chatting with her aunt in the village while chatting.

When we returned, we passed by the other side of the field. It happened that Zhou and his father had just finished their work and walked towards their homes. As soon as they walked from the field to the road, they saw Lin Qingxi coming with a basket on their back.

Zhou's father put the basket on the ground and looked at Lin Qingxi and said, "Girl Xi, you have gained a lot today! This basket is a bit heavy."

Lin Qingxi took off the basket and placed it on the ground. Then he took out seven red ropes from the space and tied them to the leaves of ginseng. He took out the medicine hoe from the basket and started digging. He first dug the nearby soil and slowly scattered it with his hands.

"His father, go and take Xi's basket over," Zhou's mother felt so distressed when she saw Lin Qingxi carrying such a big basket on her back. She didn't care about Zhou's father's tired all morning and asked him to carry Lin Qingxi's basket again.

Lin Qingxi and the others were the same. After washing the handle, they went to the main hall. Only Zhou's father didn't care about washing his hands and walked into the main hall with a basket on his back. Seeing that everyone was holding up the dishes and eating.

"There are so many!" Looking at the basket of pheasants and hares, everyone was very happy. It happened that during the busy farming period, we could replenish everyone's health.

The remaining two ginseng plants were temporarily taken to the space. Lin Qingxi took out ten rabbits and six pheasants from the space and put them in the basket. She covered the herbs she dug out casually today. She carried the basket down the mountain.

After hearing Zhou's father's words, Lin Qingxi realized her enlightenment. She only wanted to eat and didn't care about what she brought from the bottom of the mountain. She quickly put down her bowls and chopsticks, took out the herbs and placed them next to the door, and the pheasants and hares underneath were exposed.

"Okay! Let's stew chicken soup tonight, and then cook the rabbits! Xi's girl feeds the children, so you can't eat too spicy food," Grandma Zhou said while eating. As expected, she still had meat with her younger son and her older son and her older son had meat.

"We can all," Zhou's father and mother looked at each other. They were not picky about food. No matter how they were cooked, they could do it as long as it was cooked and delicious.

As for Zhou Mingmin, he had no say. Anyway, he just had something to eat, so it didn’t matter how he made it. What could he say when eating it ready-made? It’s not that he didn’t give it to himself.

Today is the sixth day of the lunar month, and tomorrow it will be the seventh day of the lunar month, and this year is over.
