Chapter 35 Digging for Herbs

"Let's compete! Who can catch the most?" Tie Zhu said.

Shuan Zhu nodded, "Okay! Start!"

With one order, all the children concentrated on finding the grasshopper.

Unknowingly, Qi Kexin walked up to the straw pile where the three sisters of the Li family were hiding.

Seeing Xiao Kexin approaching, He Hua called softly, "Little sister!"

Qi Ke was startled.

He looked up and met the smiling eyes of the lotus flower.

She froze for a moment, then laughed again, "So it's Sister Lotus!"

Chunhua and Qiuhua also rubbed against Qi Kexin.

"Sister! It's so nice to see you!"

"Sister! I miss you so much."

"Sister Chunhua! Sister Qiuhua!" Qi Kexin smiled and greeted Chunhua Qiuhua, "Why did you come here?"

In fact, she knew very well why they came here.

"Today, Sunday, a few of us went up the mountain to dig wild vegetables, and we came here without knowing it." He Hua said.

"Yes! Yes! Thanks to coming here, otherwise how could I see my sister?" Chunhua Qiuhua held Qi Kexin's hand alone.

Qi Ke nodded with a smile, and said in his heart: The earth is bare, where can we get wild vegetables?Sister, you have to be more reliable in lying!

"Little sister Kexin, are the boys who caught grasshoppers with you your elder brothers?" He Hua asked.

"Yes. I have five older brothers who call themselves General Five Tigers. Hehe!"

When mentioning her brother, Xiao Ke's eyes were full of smiles,

"Do you have a sister?" Lotus asked.

"no!"

"Let's be your older sister! We all like you very much!" He Hua glanced at Chunhua and Qiuhua and said hastily.

"Yes! Yes! We all like you very, very much, let's be our sister!" Chunhua Qiuhua's eyes were full of love.

Qi Kexin nodded and said with a smile: "I have five older brothers and three older sisters, that is simply too happy!"

"Fu Bao! Fu Bao!"

Shuan Zhu's voice came over, he was calling Qi Kexin, his voice was anxious.

Immediately afterwards, the iron pillars, copper pillars, four pillars and five pillars all called her, "Fubao! Where are you? Fubao... where are you..."

"Brother is looking for me, I'm leaving! Goodbye, sister!" Qi Kexin ran away after finishing speaking.

He really wants to thank his elder brother Shuanzhu!

It's time to shout too!Continuing to stay here, I really don't know if the sisters will say anything to embarrass her.

For example: "You are actually my own sister!"

"You were adopted by the Qi family. Your surname is Li, and your real name is Li Cuihua."

"Come home with us now! Dad is waiting for you at home!"

If so, she really didn't know how to respond to them.It's not that she doesn't want to recognize her relatives, but she can't do it now.

Now that I admit it, Qi's father and Qi's mother will be very sad.

She didn't want to make them sad. Qi's parents saved her and treated her so well. She must do things without considering their feelings.

……

The weather is as cold as it can be. Last night, the north wind blew all night, and the temperature dropped sharply in the morning. Some people are already wearing cotton clothes to keep out the cold.

Qi Futian felt that the temperature evolved according to this rhythm, and the ground would freeze if it was not used for half a month.When it is frozen, those rhizome herbs cannot be harvested.

"Damn it! I'll go up the mountain to see if I can pick bellflowers." He put on his climbing rubber shoes with a pannier on his back.

Platycodon grandiflorum is a rhizome of traditional Chinese medicine, which has the functions of relieving cough and eliminating phlegm, clearing the lungs, and draining pus.Platycodon grandiflorum is used for both medicine and food. It can also be torn into shreds and pickled to make pickles, mixed with chili noodles, it is delicious!

In good years, when the vegetation was lush, there were many bellflowers on the mountain, but now that there is a famine, everyone is digging, and it is probably difficult to find them.

If it is hard to find, you have to look for it, because there is really no other way to get money.In previous years, there were a lot of chickens, and the eggs could be exchanged for two dollars.When the vegetation is lush, picking wild fruits can also be exchanged for two dollars.Now there is nothing, if you don't try to dig medicinal materials, you can't live.

"Father, it's too cold today, the wind will be even stronger on the mountain, let's go in two days!" Cui felt sorry for her husband and couldn't bear to ask him to go.

"It will be colder in two days. It's okay, I'll wear more. Find out my big padded jacket."

"Okay." Cui rummaged through the box and found the big padded jacket her husband had worn for several winters.

This cotton-padded jacket is the same as the cotton-padded quilt, and the cotton inside has also rolled out, but Cui made it smooth when he unpacked, washed and sewed it again.

"Dad! I'll go with you!" Xiao Kexin walked out and looked up at her father.

"Hahahaha!"

Everyone laughed.It was to laugh at her outfit.

The little guy put on his brother's cotton jacket and trousers, his brother's cotton hat, cotton gloves, and cotton shoes.

In her hand, she was holding a small toy.Ready to be used as digging medicinal materials.

She dug out these clothes by herself, some with iron pillars, some with copper pillars, and the cotton shoes on her feet belonged to my younger brother Wuzhu.The clothes are not with me, but the shoes are very easy to follow.Walk a few steps, sonorous and powerful, like a boy.

After laughing, Qi Futian asked Cui Shi to carry Fubao back to the house.

It's mountaineering in such a cold day, he won't ask Fu Bao to suffer.He also couldn't take care of it, if Fubao fell, it would be too bad.

"Dad! Your words don't count. You promised Fubao last time, and Fubao is looking forward to this day! Fubao won't make trouble for Dad. Fubao can only help Dad find medicinal materials."

Fu Bao was reasoning with his father.

She resolutely refused to go back to the house and insisted on going up the mountain with her father to dig herbs.

Shuan Zhu and Tie Zhu have gone to school, while Tong Zhu is at home.

So he pleaded with his sister, "Mom and Dad! Fubao is so willing to go, you have promised her before, she has everything ready, so you can ask her to go! I will take care of Fubao, and Dad just digs herbs, can't you?" ?”

Considering that there is Tongzhu to take care of Fubao, the parents of the Qi family nodded.

The weather today was worse than expected.The wind on the mountain is so strong that it can blow people away.

Grandpa staggered a few steps.

Qi Futian was too worried about Fubao, for fear that a gust of wind would blow Jiang Fubao into the mountain depression.

"No! Let's go home! Come again on a sunny day."

He backed off!
Fubao's safety is the most important!

Seeing his father's resolute attitude, Qi Kexin tried to ask the system for help.

[Little host!Why do you go up the mountain in such weather? 】

"Sister Maple Leaf! It's getting cold, and the quilt at home needs to be replaced, but the family has no money. Dad has to go up the mountain to dig herbs and sell them for money."

[Your space is a herbal medicine field, why do you want to look far away? 】

"Sister Maple Leaf! In fact, Dad can't dig up the herbs, and people have dug up all the herbs on the mountain! I went up the mountain with Dad to help Dad..."

【Understood!You are still thoughtful.So how long will you stay on the mountain? 】

"Two hours!"

【it is good!The wind will drop temporarily! 】

"Thank you, Sister Maple Leaf!"

Qi Kexin never thought that such a help-seeking system would be able to agree.

I can't help but marvel at the power of the system.

It is so powerful that it can call the wind and call the rain!
Thanks almighty system!It's great to have a system! "
