Chapter 450

"Xiaofeng, if you want to find Yingchun, you can go to the top of Dongshan Mountain, there are many there." Old Yaoshu said with a smile.

"Dongshan Peak?"

Zhang Feng was a little surprised. Isn't that the place where Zhang Yi used to steal cucumbers when he was a child? However, since the third wife came to sue Zhang Feng, Zhang Feng never set foot there again. His memory is very vague. What has become.

"Yes, your third wife told me that there are many forsythias there, but I ran over excitedly and saw that they were all winter jasmine, but fortunately, the branches of jasmine jasmine can also be used as medicine. , the effect of reducing swelling and diuresis..." Old Yao Shu smiled slightly, and then said.

"So that's the case, then where did you find the forsythia in your hand?" Zhang Feng asked curiously.

"It's on the top of this hillside, but there are not many, only these two are found!" Old Yao Shu pointed to the barren slope above Zhang Feng's orchard.

The orchard of Zhang Feng's family is halfway up the mountain, and the top of the mountain is a barren hill.The mountain is covered with all kinds of weeds, among which thorns are the most, followed by many ferns.

Every spring, in March and April, a lot of bracken can grow on the mountain. Every year at this time, villagers will go up the mountain to pick bracken. Some villagers even earn a lot of money by selling bracken every year Thousands of dollars.

.....................

After smoking a cigarette, the old uncle Yao left with the medicinal materials on his back.

Zhang Feng told the two fools not to run around, and walked towards Dongshan with a basket on their backs.

The winding mountain road stretches into the distance. Although the mountain road is rugged, Zhang Feng still walks like flying, and arrived at the destination in ten minutes.

When Zhang Feng climbed to the top of Dongshan Mountain, as the old Yao uncle said, there are quite a lot of winter jasmines here. On the barren slope beside the third wife's house, there are traces of jasmines everywhere.

Winter jasmine, also known as yellow plum or golden belt.

It is a deciduous shrub of the genus Yingchun in the family Oleaceae, and its origin is in China.

The branches of winter jasmine are clustered, like wicker, soft and strong, elegant and free under the spring breeze.

Every year when the winter jasmine blooms, it looks like a string of yellow and red ribbons along the paper, so it is also called a string of gold in some places.

Because it opens to the wind around the Spring Festival and brings the message of spring, it is named "Yingchun".

Winter jasmine, together with plum blossoms, narcissus and camellia, is collectively referred to as the "Four Friends in the Snow", and is one of the famous and precious flowers in China.The branches of winter jasmine are long and weak, with green leaves and yellow flowers. They are planted on the edge of embankments, terraces and terraces in landscaping. They can be used as ornamental shrubs in flower beds, and perennial old stumps can be used as potted plants.

The greening effect of winter jasmine is outstanding, the speed is fast, and it has a good greening effect in the year of planting. The flower color of winter jasmine is dignified and beautiful, it is not afraid of cold, and it has strong adaptability.

The flowering period of winter jasmine is longer, it opens from February to April and lasts for about 2 days.It blooms every year, but generally does not bear fruit.

The winter jasmine is light-loving, slightly shade-tolerant, and more cold-tolerant.It likes humidity, is resistant to drought, and is afraid of waterlogging. It requires a warm and humid climate, loose, fertile and well-drained sandy soil.It grows vigorously in acidic soil and poorly in alkaline soil.

The roots of the winter jasmine are very strong in the shade, and the parts of the branches that touch the ground are also very easy to take root.Jasmine jasmine can be used as medicine, mainly treating fever, headache, hot pain in urination, antipyretic, sweating and diuresis.Its leaves can promote blood circulation and detoxify, reduce swelling and relieve pain, and treat mainly swelling and malignant sores, bruises, traumatic bleeding, etc.

The cultivation of winter jasmine generally uses cuttings, but cuttings not only require professional skills, but also take a lot of time. It takes at least half a year for the branches of the cuttings to grow roots.

But Zhang Feng didn't have that much effort and patience, so what should he do?
Of course, uproot the winter jasmine on the barren slope and take it home to plant. Zhang Feng's solution is so simple and rude.

Because he has auxin in hand, Zhang Feng is not worried about Yingchun's survival.

As long as the hoe is swung well, there is no spring that can't be dug down.

In about half an hour, Zhang Feng dug seven or eight cages of Yingchun, but the size of Yingchun is not small, they are all stacked together, and one person can hardly hold them.

So Zhang Feng found a wild sweet potato vine from the hillside, tied the winter jasmine together, and finally stuffed it into the basket.

Dongshan is located in the east of the small village, and Zhang Feng's home is in the west of the village, so Zhang Feng did not go back along the way he came from, but went directly down the mountain, entered the village from the east, and walked towards his home along the path in the village.

"Xiaofeng, are you going up the mountain to dig medicinal materials?" Paoshan Master's house is at the foot of Dongshan Mountain, seeing Zhang Feng carrying some weeds, the old man asked with a smile.

"No, this is the winter jasmine flower I dug on the top of Dongshan Mountain! Has the Pashan master eaten yet?" Zhang Feng said with a smile.

"Hehe, is it still early?"

After exchanging a few words with Master Paoshan, Zhang Feng continued to walk home. The villagers he met along the way thought that Zhang Feng was carrying medicinal materials.

"Wow! Brother, what are you memorizing?" Back home, the little girl asked curiously.

"Guess what??" Zhang Feng smiled, put down the basket, poured himself a cup of tea, and drank it.

"What kind of flower should this be?" The little girl looked at it, tilted her head and thought for a while, then guessed.

"How did you guess it?" Zhang Feng smiled, thinking that this girl's guess was really accurate.

"Hee hee, who in the family doesn't know that you like flirting with flowers?" The little girl covered her mouth and joked.

"You girl, do you use words indiscriminately like this?" Zhang Feng couldn't laugh or cry, this little girl just loves to talk nonsense.

I love flowers and plants, but when it comes to the little girl's mouth, it turns into flirting with flowers and plants. Thinking about it, it really makes people laugh.

"Hee hee, that's what it was. Look at the yard, there are so many wild flowers and weeds, and you even went to the mountain to dig so many." The little girl stuck out her tongue and made a face at Zhang Feng again.

Zhang Feng shook his head, ignored the girl, drank two cups of tea, picked up a hoe and dug four holes under the east courtyard wall, and planted four cages of jasmine flowers under the courtyard wall.

The remaining four cages of winter jasmine, Zhang Feng, were planted under the courtyard wall on the west side. He used a shovel to shovel some chicken manure and put it on the roots of the winter jasmine, and poured water diluted with auxin. The walls are full of golden and yellow winter jasmine flowers.

"Xiaoyue, have you finished your homework? Is school going to start soon?" Zhang Feng asked his sister while washing his hands.

"Soon, there are still a few diary entries." The little girl was eating snacks while watching TV. She lived happily and happily, and she didn't feel the tension of high school at all.

Seeing this girl's appearance, Zhang Feng shook his head helplessly. He was originally a very smart person, but he was playful and not practical in his studies. With this girl's attitude towards study, it would be good if she could pass the ordinary 985 exam in the future.
