The lucky girl in the village has a good way of making money.

Chapter 31 Digging Kudzu
Shiliu got the full right to use the nine coins and the support of her family. She was very motivated. Early the next morning, she took Li Rongzhang, a small laborer from Ke tribe, up the mountain with her.

Li Rongzhang didn't sleep well last night. He was thinking about his second sister's dream about the God of Wealth, and he also wondered if he could also dream about gods. He didn't want to dream about the God of Wealth, but only wanted to dream about Wen Quxing.

It's a pity that he had a messy dream all night, and he couldn't wait for Wenquxing to come to his dream.

At this moment, a pair of eyes were green, and while he followed the second sister's steps step by step, he couldn't help but yawned loudly.

Pomegranate heard the yawn and turned to look at him, "Brother Zhang, what did you do when you got up in the middle of the night last night? Didn't you sleep well?"

Li Rongzhang smiled sheepishly and whispered: "I also want to dream about the Immortal Wenquxing, so that I can soak up his literary spirit!"

When Shiliu heard this, she couldn't help laughing, "This kind of thing depends on fate. I can't wait until Brother Zhang to succeed in your studies. Then you can dream about it?"

Li Rongzhang heard the same thing and nodded his head, "Yeah! My second sister and I will make a lot of money and study together!"

"Yes! Make big money!" Shiliu touched his head, and the two siblings headed toward the deepest mountain.

Only when he reached the top of this mountain did Li Rongzhang remember to ask his doubts, "Second sister, aren't you making candy? What are we doing in the mountains?"

At this moment, the pomegranate was standing in front of a clump of climbing vines. The leaves of the vines were in the shape of small three-leaf leaves, the roots were covered with downy hairs, and there were oblong pods. In autumn and winter, the vines were somewhat dry and shrunken. If it is spring or summer, this vine will look similar to a lentil vine.

And under this vine is kudzu root.

It is said that there is ginseng in the north and kudzu in the south. There are a lot of wild kudzu in the mountains and fields.

This clump, in spring, summer, autumn and winter, has been coveted by pomegranates for two or three years.

Yes, she had discovered this kudzu root a long time ago, but she didn't come to dig it before it was separated.

It was allowed to grow for another two years, and now it is dug out, and I don’t know how big it is yet.

"For the candy I want to make, I need to dig this first!" As she said that, Pomegranate took the sickle and prepared to clean up the vines on it.

When Li Rongzhang heard that he was going to dig this up, he was also puzzled, "Second sister, isn't this kudzu? There are people in the village who use this to weave rope. Can it be used to make candy?"

"What I want to dig is the roots underneath. Let me tell you, the kudzu root underneath is still a herb! You don't know?" Pomegranate responded in her mouth without affecting the deft movements of her hands.

"Is this a herbal medicine? Why haven't you heard of anyone talking about it?"

"Collecting medicine is the business of the people who pick it up. How can we villagers know about it? Anyway, you know it now. This kudzu root is not only medicine, it can also be eaten!"

"Well! Second sister, I know now! Second sister, let me help you!" Li Rongzhang said, and also took a sickle to help.

The two siblings worked hard for a long time, and they were so tired that they were sweating. Finally, they cleared away all the tangled vines, and finally found the roots and started digging with the hoe.

However, this digging cannot be done randomly with the hoe. I saw Pomegranate using the hoe, carefully digging and poking at the mud along the rhizome. Step by step, the kudzu root in the ground was gradually exposed, and then slowly followed the direction of the kudzu root spread. Slowly dig out all the mud on the upper edge.

In the end, a kudzu root lying on the ground finally took shape and was as long as a person. Li Rongzhang was surprised when he saw it, "Wow! Second sister, this kudzu root actually grows so long? It's longer than me!"

"That's not true!" Pomegranate used strength to dig out the root completely. He pulled up the big kudzu root with both hands and weighed it hard. Hey, it's quite heavy. I estimate it weighs sixty kilograms. But compared to the kudzu roots she and her family dug up in the mountains every autumn and winter in her previous life, this was not the biggest.

Pomegranate put the kudzu root down, cut it into two sections with a hoe, found a piece of kudzu vine, tied it up, and tied it to the basket. After a lot of effort, it was finally carried on the back, and the siblings were ready to go down the mountain.

Kudzu can be found all over the mountains and plains, and pomegranates are not greedy. She can't bear it if she digs too much at one time, but even punches people in the eyes.

With just such a root of kudzu, the siblings just came down the mountain and met the villagers who were going up the mountain. They were even asked, "Aren't these the pomegranate siblings? You two are so diligent. You came up early in the morning." Did you go up the mountain to collect firewood? Huh? The roots of the tree are still wet. Can you burn them if you bring them back? They need to be dried, right? Fortunately, the sun has been strong these two days, so they dried them out!"

Pomegranate was weighed down by dozens of kilograms and couldn't even lift its head. She stopped and stopped all the way, and she didn't have much energy left. Listening to the villagers' words, she kept laughing and said "Yes, yes," in her mouth. If you say I am a firewood, then I will be a firewood.

Carrying all the way back to his homestead, Pomegranate was already panting from exhaustion. Li Rongzong, who was helping to move bricks, wiped the sweat from his forehead. When he saw the second sister carrying the boss back two tree roots, he was also sharp-eyed and hurried over to help. , picked up the tree root with the basket on his back, and helped carry it into the hay shed.

After entering the hay shed, he asked Pomegranate in a low voice: "Pomegranate, didn't you want to make sugar? How do you dig two roots back?"

Li Xiangli, who was busy having lunch, heard the sound and looked over curiously.

For my family, I can't say that it is used as firewood. Pomegranate took the warm water handed over by the eldest sister and drank it. He wiped his mouth and said: "This is not a tree root. This is called kudzu. It is used to make sugar. !”

Li Rongzong and Li Xiangli were confused. They really couldn't figure out what kind of candy could be made from these tree roots.

Since the God of Wealth was watching from the sky, the two of them kept their mouths shut about what they wanted to say. Well, we'll find out when the second sister does it.

Li Rongzong took a sip of water and went out to do some work.

Pomegranate sat down by the stove to help light the fire, and looked around, "Where is mother?"

Li Xiangli took the freshly steamed corn buns out of the pot and replied: "Mom went back to her old house, and my aunt is here today!"

Shiliu listened and murmured in her heart. Her grandmother Yuan's sister, Huang Yuan, was a very capable person. She married Huangjia Village, not far from Huangkou Town. Her great-aunt was the village chief. As the village chief's mother-in-law, My son, my aunt has always dealt with people, and she knows many people in the ten miles and eight villages. No, she started a career as a matchmaker on her own.

At first, not many people asked her to be a matchmaker, but in the past two years, I heard that my aunt had made several pieces of good coal, and her reputation had increased.

This sudden arrival at home, what could be the reason? It must be for someone in the family to say goodbye!
The age is right. I don’t know whether to tell it to the eldest brother or the eldest sister this time?

Pomegranate rolled her eyes. She didn't care who others married, but she was still very concerned about the life-long events of her own brothers and sisters.

Whether you are marrying a wife or a husband, it is a lifelong matter. Pomegranate naturally hopes that the eldest brother and eldest sister can get along well with each other and live a good life with each other.

But at this time, it was time for dinner at the old house. She had almost said everything she wanted to say. She couldn't hear anything even if she went there. It was better to wait for her mother to come back and ask her!

With this thought in mind, Pomegranate watched her eldest sister pour the pork belly into the hot pot, and the pot immediately began to sizzle, exuding the aroma of meat.

"Sister, who is going to buy the meat today?"
