If you don't work hard to farm the fields, you will inherit the throne with the prince.

Chapter 22 Planting Honeysuckle
Most of the villagers in Xiejia Village are surnamed Xie. A family thrives here and is united. That is the clan teaching.

Xie Laosan's gang engaged in their own behavior with outsiders, and naturally they were beaten to the ground by the Xie family.

Xie Laosan was beaten until his nose was blue and his face was swollen, and he fell on the top, shouting.

Qing Yao, who was tied up and couldn't move, saw Xie Laosan like this, and rubbed against Xie Laosan in distress, and wanted to beg the descendants of Xie's family not to beat Xie Laosan again.

Seeing this scene, Xie Mingzhu was so angry that her chest hurt.

Peach Blossom is her daughter. She has never felt so distressed before, so thanks to the third child, she is still distressed.

"Father, mother, you and Qin Che will deal with the follow-up matters."

When it was dawn, Xie Mingzhu entered the stove and cooked a bowl of medicine for Qin Che.

"Qin Che, drink the medicine."

Qin Che took the medicine bowl without being pretentious, raised his head, and drank the pure light in one gulp.

Xie Mingzhu looked at Qin Che and said softly, "I want to go to the mountain, can you be at home alone?"

"What are you doing in the mountain?"

Xie Mingzhu thought for a while, and said softly, "I want to go see the medicinal materials in the mountains and dig some and grow them myself."

"me and you together."

Xie Mingzhu looked at Qin Che's thin body, and said warmly, "You have a good rest, just take the medicine, don't toss your body, and when you're healthy, you can accompany me."

Knowing that Xie Mingzhu was going to enter the mountain, the Zhao family was worried that she would encounter wild animals alone, so she specially called Liu Guizhi to accompany Xie Mingzhu into the mountain.

Liu Guizhi's temperament is carefree, she does what Zhao Shi says, and she doesn't have so many careful thoughts.

Xie Mingzhu and Liu Guizhi carried their hoes along the crystal-clear creek and walked slowly into the back mountain.

Zhao looked at Xie Mingzhu's back, and said to Xie Yunli distressedly: "Mingzhu, this child must be frightened by Taohua's death."

"Hey……"

Xie Yunli also let out a long sigh, who would have thought that the peach blossoms would disappear like this.

The Zhao family stayed at home to look after Xie Mingzhu, while Xie Yunli and Qin Che, together with the village chief and others, sent these casino thugs and Xie Laosan and his wife to the government.

The back mountain of Xiejia Village is a mountain forest. Because of the steep slope and poor geology, it is not suitable for transforming it into fertile land, nor for planting crops.

The trees that grow here are mostly cypress.

Occasionally there are some miscellaneous trees such as pine or green pole trees.

The air in the forest is fresh, and the wild white thorn flowers are blooming in clusters, and the fragrance is fragrant.

"Mingzhu, what are you digging for?"

Liu Guizhi found that Xie Mingzhu stopped in front of a bush of wild honeysuckle.

"Sister-in-law, I'll dig it back and plant it."

Xie Mingzhu was about to dig with a hoe, but was stopped by Liu Guizhi.

"Get out of the way, I'll come."

Liu Guizhi moved swiftly and quickly dug half a pocket of honeysuckle seedlings.

It stands to reason that this season is not very suitable for honeysuckle planting.

Xie Mingzhu thought that after she made the tofu, she could use her points to buy some rooting powder, and it was estimated that the survival rate would be higher.

"Pearl, there are mushrooms here!"

Liu Guizhi's sharp eyes found a bunch of mushrooms with red umbrellas and white stems.

"It's poisonous and can't be eaten."

Liu Guizhi asked in surprise, "Can't you eat it?"

"No, the brighter the mushroom, the more poisonous it is."

When Xie Mingzhu said this, Liu Guizhi didn't dare to touch it.

Interestingly, when Xie Mingzhu and Liu Guizhi were going down the mountain to go home, a fat rabbit that ran out of nowhere slammed into Xie Mingzhu's calf and fainted on the spot.

Liu Guizhi quickly grabbed the fat rabbit and said with a smile, "Is this rabbit stupid?"

"Then eat braised rabbit tonight."

As soon as Liu Guizhi heard it, he swiftly pulled a palm leaf from the palm leaf tree on one side, and with three or five strokes, he tied the rabbit tightly.

"I listen to you."

Liu Guizhi has great strength and is a good hand at work.

Back at home, Xie Mingzhu chose the open space in front of the house, the roadside, and planted honeysuckle.

"Mingzhu, wait a minute."

Liu Guizhi went home, went to get a pair of wooden barrels, picked out some natural fertilizer and made a bottom hole first.

She didn't think it was dirty, so she squatted on the ground and helped Xie Mingzhu plant honeysuckle.

After a while, two rows of honeysuckle were planted on the roadside, and in the spring of the coming year, the flowers must be fragrant and beautiful.

"Sister-in-law, go back and have something to eat."

Liu Guizhi grinned and said, "You don't eat it?"

"I'm not hungry."

Xie Mingzhu also has no appetite.

She has to keep herself busy, otherwise, as soon as she closes her eyes, she thinks of peach blossoms.

"Then I'll go eat something first, and I'll help you later."

When Liu Guizhi was eating, Xie Mingzhu cleaned the stone mill in a bucket.

After washing the stone mill clean, take out the soaked soybeans and grind them into soy milk.

"Mingzhu, when you are grinding, you can't watch the grinding heart, you will faint."

Xie Mingzhu used a stick to push the stone grinder and poured some soaked soybeans from the grinder.

The milky white soy milk flows along the stone mill into the wooden barrel before it was placed.

In the air, there was a strong beany smell.

Xie Mingzhu doesn't actually make tofu, so she didn't grind too many soybeans this time.

Wouldn't it be a waste to think if it doesn't work out?

After the soybeans were grinded, Xie Mingzhu and Mrs Zhao washed the stone grinder with clean water.

Zhao shi carried a wooden bucket in one hand and carried it into the kitchen room.

Xie Mingzhu went into the small warehouse and took a piece of burlap with a mesh, thinking that it could be used to drain soy milk.

She took the burlap and soaked it in water.

He took a knife, entered the bamboo forest behind, and chopped two bamboos.

Two bamboos, cut to the same length.

A hole was drilled in the middle.

She then passed the palm leaves through the two holes and tied them tightly together.

Zhao shi asked worriedly, "Mingzhu, you didn't eat rice this morning, and you kept grinding beans. What do you want to do?"

"Mother, I want to make something." Xie Mingzhu took Zhao's arm and said softly, "If I succeed, you and Dad won't have to go to the ground every day, you can make a living from this."

Zhao shi touched Xie Mingzhu's big round face distressedly. She is a good girl, but why is she so sensible?It hurts her to be sensible.

"Mother help you."

Xie Mingzhu said coquettishly, "Mother, you are so kind."

"Who made me your mother?"

While tying the end of the burlap to the end of the bamboo pole like Xie Mingzhu did, Mrs Zhao said, "Mingzhu, now, the brothers are separated, will you call your brother and sister-in-law everything in the future? Come over to eat together, and let them be the masters of the house."

"I listen to my mother."

Zhao looked at Xie Mingzhu's bamboo rack and fixed it on the beam above the stove.

Then use a wooden scoop to scoop the soy milk and filter it.

Considering that this time-saving and labor-saving shelf was made by her temporarily, Xie Mingzhu did not dare to filter too much at one time.

She put the filtered okara in a wooden tub, thinking that she could add some other ingredients to make a delicious okara cake.
