Chapter 25: Dachun Didn't Come Back

Hearing what Chen Qiaoer said, Xiumei felt relieved.

It turned out that I found the treasure in the mountains.

No wonder Chen Xiaobei kept clamoring to go into the mountains. He wanted to go into the mountains.

No, Chen Xiaobei can't let Chen Xiaobei take all the good things, and he should get a share anyway.

Just do it, Xiumei immediately asked Cuihua to look at Chen Qiaoer. She hurriedly ran to the fields. Dachun was still busy in the fields, so she had to let him go to the mountains while it was still early.

Seeing his mother rushing over in a hurry, Dachun looked confused.

"Mom, what happened? You ran in such a hurry."

Xiumei pulled Dachun back and said, "Hurry and go home. I have something important to tell you."

"Mom, I haven't finished hoeing the grass in my field yet."

Xiumei stepped forward and snatched his hoe off, "Oh, if you want to come with me, just follow me."

"Do you know why Chen Xiaobei suddenly wants to repair the house?"

Dachun was stunned and looked at his mother in astonishment. Perhaps in his opinion, this had nothing to do with him.

"Oh, let me tell you, it's not because of the dowry Cui Hongyu brought, but because Chen Xiaobei found several ginseng trees from the mountains."

Upon hearing this, Dachun's eyes widened, "It's impossible. How could Chen Xiaobei recognize this thing?"

Xiumei sighed, "Yes, Chen Xiaobei doesn't know this, but don't forget that Cui Hongyu's father is a doctor."

Dachun nodded, "So that's the case, that's no wonder."

"That's you, stop weeding and go into the mountains quickly to find some ginseng trees."

Upon hearing this, Dachun couldn't help but laughed.

"Mom, ginseng is not like crops, so how can you find it just as easily as you look for it?"

Xiumei's eyes widened, "Chen Xiaobei can find it, why can't you find it?"

Facing her mother's repeated urging, Dachun had no choice but to put down the hoe, gulp, gulp, gulp a few sips of water, and then run towards Qingniu Mountain.

At this time, Chen Xiaobei had already led Cui Hongyu into Qingniu Mountain.

Soon, Chen Xiaobei found the place where he first caught the pheasants.

As soon as he saw the thick layer of pheasant manure on the ground, he couldn't help but feel excited. This was a guarantee of high yields.

Chen Xiaobei was busy collecting pheasant droppings here, while Cui Hongyu was searching around, trying hard to distinguish among the grass to see if there would be any new discoveries.

Soon, she found something in a dark and humid place.

Houttuynia cordata.

There is actually a large patch of Houttuynia cordata in front.

Seeing this, Cui Hongyu was delighted.

In an era when there were no anti-inflammatory drugs such as penicillin, Houttuynia cordata was a rare anti-inflammatory drug.

Although these are not as valuable as ginseng, you can always get money back in the county town.

Cui Hongyu couldn't wait to squat down and start picking.

Of course, Cui Hongyu is very particular about picking. At most one-third of the branches and leaves of each plant must be picked, and most of them must be retained until it continues to grow.

Unconsciously, she picked a lot of them, and she suddenly found a problem, that is, how to take them back.

After thinking about it over and over again, Cui Hongyu gritted his teeth, took off his gown, spread it on the ground, and made a big bag full of it.

When she appeared in front of Chen Xiaobei with a large bag of Houttuynia cordata on her back, Chen Xiaobei's heart was shaken when she saw it.

It had been several days since he got married, and Cui Hongyu always wore a loose gown, and he couldn't tell his figure. But now he discovered that without the gown, Cui Hongyu was wearing tight clothes underneath, and his figure was amazing.

It can be said that there is everything that should be there, and there is absolutely nothing that should not be there.

Seeing this scene, Chen Xiaobei secretly lamented that if he has children in the future, he will never be hungry.

Seeing Chen Xiaobei staring at him, Cui Hongyu's face turned slightly red.

"Husband, what are you looking at?"

Chen Xiaobei finally came to his senses and rubbed his nose in embarrassment.

"That's nothing, you're so pretty."

Cui Hongyu's face turned even redder, "My husband is joking again."

"By the way, what are you carrying in this big bag?" Chen Xiaobei quickly changed the subject.

Cui Hongyu smiled slightly, and her expression returned to normal.

"I picked some herbs, just on the hillside in front."

Saying this, Cui Hongyu grabbed a piece of Houttuynia cordata and handed it to Chen Xiaobei.

Chen Xiaobei looked at this thing. Although he had seen it many times on the mountain, he didn't know what it was.

"What's the name of this thing? Can it really be sold for money?"

Cui Hongyu nodded, "Yes, this is called Houttuynia Cordata. It is anti-inflammatory and analgesic. It will take effect very quickly after applying it."

Houttuynia cordata also has this function. Chen Xiaobei is really not sure about it, but in any case, as long as it can be sold for money, it is a good thing.

"Let's go then, let's go back first."

Chen Xiaobei picked up the chicken manure and walked down the mountain with Cui Hongyu. At this time, Chen Xiaobei really felt like a couple returning home.

When they got home, one of them served chicken manure and the other went home to cook and was very busy.

There were no entertainment activities in this era. After dinner, it was almost time to get ready for bed.

Chen Xiaobei looked at Chen Qiao'er pulling Cui Hongyu into the house, feeling very helpless. If this continues, there is no other way. This is my wife, what's going on with you occupying her every day?

Thinking of this, he coughed slightly.

"Qiao'er, you're getting older too. You can't let your sister-in-law sleep with you every day. You have to learn to sleep alone."

This sentence made Chen Qiaoer a little stunned. She paused and then said, "But Qiaoer wants to be with my sister-in-law."

What else Chen Xiaobei wanted to say, Cui Hongyu spoke first, "Husband, we are not worried about Qiaoer sleeping alone. We should wait until the house is reinforced and the courtyard wall is raised in a few days before we talk."

Of course Chen Xiaobei knew this was an excuse, but after all, he really had no choice but to rush Chen Qiaoer to another room.

He sighed helplessly. He secretly felt annoyed in his heart. Is this the wife he married, or did he find a stepmother for Chen Qiaoer?

The second watch passed in the blink of an eye.

Xiumei couldn't sit still at home, Dachun hadn't come back yet.

This was obviously not normal. At that time, I repeatedly told Dachun that I must come back before dark.

After thinking about it over and over again, Xiumei had no choice but to go out in a hurry to find Chen Anbang, the head of the village.

Chen Anbang was also surprised to see Xiumei come at this hour, "Xiumei, it's so late, what do you want to do here?"

Xiumei looked eager, "Second uncle, I went into the mountains in the afternoon of Dachun. I promised to come back before dark, but I haven't come back yet."

Upon hearing this, Chen Anbang's expression changed, "Nonsense."

"On weekdays, there are only a few people who dare to go to Qingniu Mountain. Why are they going there in the spring?"

Xiumei was not stupid and did not tell him about asking him to go up the mountain to look for ginseng. "Hey, aren't there green flowers? I want to ask him to go to the mountain to touch some wild eggs."

Chen Anbang waved his hand, "You should go back first, and then go into the mountains to look for it at dawn."
