four and a half year old farm family pet

Chapter 241 The whole family goes to the mountain to dig yams (3)

Yuan Bao was also young, so he was held firmly in Jin Si's arms and walked at the front.

She only needed to point the way and didn't have to worry about anything else, but in fact, the two tigers, Big and White, had already driven away all the wild beasts nearby.

But the Jin family didn't know about this. They were frightened and looked around with torches. If there was anything wrong, they immediately asked the children to run away first.

I walked deep into the mountains for half an hour without any danger, then passed through a dense grass forest and walked for another quarter of an hour before I saw the place Yuan Bao mentioned.

Wherever the torch illuminated, there were only dry branches and leaves.

"Yam is found here." Yuan Bao yawned and fell asleep.

Hua Weiwei stepped forward and picked a dead leaf, crushed it in his hand, smelled it, and nodded affirmatively, "Yuanbao is very talented in these things. She is right. These are the dead seedlings of yam. As long as the soil is removed, If you dig it open, you can find yams.”

He just doesn't know how much he can dig, but based on his knowledge of medicinal materials, the yield of one acre of medicinal herbs is more than 1000 kilograms. There are about four or five acres of yams here. To put it in perspective, he can dig three yams no matter what. Four thousand pounds, right?
Hua Weiwei and Jin Zhong squatted together and talked, analyzing the yield per mu of the land.

The treasures of the Jin family said with admiration on their faces: "Grandpa and Grandpa Hua are both amazing and know a lot!"

Hua Weiwei's old face turned red after being praised by the children, but Jin Zhong actually got out of breath when they said he was fat.

He stroked his beard and said proudly: "As the saying goes, there is a certain order of learning, and there is a specialization in the art. At least your Grandpa Hua and I will have more food for decades, and your Grandpa Hua is a doctor, so we have both. Now, how can you not understand much? When you go to school in the future and gain knowledge, you will definitely understand more than grandpa when you are old."

The corners of Jin Laibao's mouth twitched fiercely, "Grandpa, I just said it casually. Don't take it seriously. The main thing is to praise my sister and Grandpa Hua for their greatness."

It has nothing to do with you.

Jin Zhong glared fiercely, "You little bastard! I'm just trying to destroy your grandfather's platform, right? Start digging quickly, be careful, and put the torch away. If you set the forest on fire, it will be a big sin!"

"understand!"

The men, women, and children of the Jin family took shovels and hoes and started digging.

Miao took off his outer coat and spread it on the ground, flattened the sleepy ingots and put them away, sprinkled realgar around them to ward off snakes and insects, and then joined the ranks of digging yam.Yuan Bao slept very uncomfortably. He always felt that something was hitting the back of his head. He quickly got up, dug up the grass underneath, and then pulled out a ginseng doll from the ground. After seeing it clearly through the faint firelight, his eyes lit up. .

"Acridine! The gift for little brother is here!" Yuanbao didn't expect to pick up a ginseng even after sleeping. He put it away in the small space with satisfaction, and smelled the reassuring light sweat on Miao's clothes. Smell, fast asleep.

In one night, more than a dozen people from the Jin family filled the dozen bamboo baskets they brought.

After going down the mountain, Jin Si drove the carriage over and took the thousand kilograms of yams back home.

At this time, no one in the Jin family was in the mood to rest, because they dug all night and only dug a small corner of yam. The actual yam output may be more than Hua Weiwei estimated, possibly... tens of thousands. Maybe a pound!

They had to dig up more yams before no one noticed this, so that their family would have food for the whole year.

Jin Si looked at the yams piled up in the yard. After a long time, he took a puff of dry cigarette to wake up and gave instructions to Mrs. Zheng who was busy in the kitchen.

"My fifth daughter-in-law, if you still have some strength, go to the village chief's house and call the village chief over."

"Hey, Dad, I'll go right away." Mrs. Zheng looked at the tired family members with distressed expressions on her face, wiped her hands and went out.

The one with the straightest intestines in the family is the chrysanthemum bag. Hearing this, he immediately guessed some clues and shouted: "Dad, don't you want the village chief to mobilize the whole village to dig yams in the mountains together?"

Realizing that her voice was too loud, Bao Juhua immediately lowered her voice and muttered, "This was discovered by our Yuanbao. Many people in the village have said bad things about our Yuanbao!"

Others were fine. If Liu Xianhua had dug yams and fed her family, she would have been so angry that she would have taken off her belt and hanged herself in front of Tan's house.

Jin Zhong sighed and said gently: "My third daughter-in-law, when will you change your temper and forget the teachings I usually talk about? If you are rich, you can help the world, and if you are poor, you can be alone. Our family is so dignified There are so many yams that we can eat them for a long time. Even if we dig out the rest, we have no energy left. It is better to spread them out to accumulate merit and save one life than to build a seven-level pagoda."

Do we really want to watch the folks who have known each other for decades sell their sons and daughters, starve to death and hang themselves?This happened to Jin Zhong when he was a child, so he didn't want anyone around him to starve to death again, and besides, the yams were not grown by his family.

As for what Bao Juhua said, he had not considered it. Liu Xianhua's family was indeed hateful, but revenge was revenge, and the lives of the villagers could not be joked about.
