The lady is busy farming

Chapter 1440
"This kind of vine is called Pueraria vine. As long as Xiaocao remembers its appearance, it can dig out Pueraria vines whenever it sees it. Maybe it can be sold for money in the future."

Listening to Qiangwei's explanation, Xiaocao's eyes lit up immediately, yes, she often comes out to cut pigweed, this kind of pigweed grows everywhere, and there must be endless digging.

"Sister, I remember. I remember that there are many places with this kind of hogweed. After being dug here, there will be some elsewhere. At most, it will run farther away." Thinking of this, Xiaocao felt relieved immediately.

Most of the day passed, and Qiangwei looked at the pieces of kudzu root dug out by them, with satisfaction in her eyes and in her heart.Dry these and grind them into a powder that is sure to last a long time.

"Okay, let's go, these are more than enough for us." Besides the basket was full, Qiangwei and Xiaocao each pulled quickly.

When they arrived in the village, Qiangwei said directly to Xiaocao: "Xiaocao, send the piece you pulled back to your home, and come and play with me later." If you share the benefits, you are good friends.

"You don't need to give it to me? It's everywhere on the hillside, just let my father dig it." Xiaocao shook her head, still following Qiangwei.Ready to take her home.

"Girl, why are you so stubborn? Take it back and let your parents taste it, otherwise how would they believe that this kind of food is edible?" Qiangwei shook her head, what a simple girl.

"Ah, is that so?" Xiaocao was stunned, thinking that what her sister said made sense, "Okay, then I'll take this piece home first, and after my dad digs it out, I'll send a big piece to my sister. "

"Hehe... you girl, why are you so cute? This kudzu root was brought back by Xiaocao. Since you put in the effort, you should be rewarded. Besides, you played with your sister for a day, Without Xiaocao, I wouldn’t be able to discover this kudzu root either, right? So, this is your reward.”

If you work hard, you will be rewarded. This is the reason Qiangwei wants Xiaocao to know.Nothing is free, there is no pie in the sky, and likewise, there is no free lunch.

"Thank you, sister, I'll go home first." Xiaocao was very happy, and took Ge Gen home directly.Anyway, when my sister was cooking porridge in the yard, she watched it herself. The process was very simple.

When Xiaocao pulled Pueraria into the house, a young woman walked out of the door. She looked good, but her complexion was a little pale. "Cao'er, what did you bring home?"

"Mother, this is the kudzu root that my sister gave me. It can be used to make porridge. I drank it at my sister's place. It's delicious. So, my sister asked me to bring this back so that you and your father and brother can taste it." " Xiaocao said, pulling the kudzu root to the water tank, ready to rinse it first.

"This can be eaten? Cao'er, are you reading it wrong?" The woman looked at her suspiciously. Although her family was poor, she was not so mixed up as to eat tree roots.

"Mother, you read that right. My sister and I went to dig at the foot of the mountain together because I could eat it. The outer skin is ugly, but the inside is white, which tastes better than sweet potatoes." Xiaocao said, and began to scoop up water. Rinse, wash off the dirt first, and then peel the skin.

"Is the elder sister you're talking about the nobleman who came to our village yesterday? When Mother went to pick vegetables in the yard, she was still listening to the villagers' discussions." Mother Cao couldn't help asking as she watched Xiaocao busy.

She hasn't gotten out of bed for two days, so she is not very clear about the external affairs.

"Yeah, that's my sister. My sister is very nice. I ate lunch with my sister. It's the noodle soup made by Aunt Guixiang. It's delicious." Qiaoer said while rinsing the kudzu root. After a while, it was finally Rinse it off.

Seeing Xiaocao take out a knife from the kitchen to peel the skin, Caoerniang finally came to her senses, "Mother, let's do it, since the nobleman said it's edible, let's try a small piece, and we'll talk if it tastes good."

"Well, my sister said that this can actually be used as medicine. She said it is as good as ginseng." Xiaocao was very proud. Today she heard a lot of things that she hadn't heard before, and she seemed to understand some truths.

"Hehe...then let's taste the taste of something as good as ginseng today." Cao Erniang shook her head, and after peeling off the skin with a knife, she did see the white flesh inside.

Besides, after Qiangwei and Chunzhi returned home, Beifeng was already waiting in the yard, seeing them pulling and hugging back several kudzu roots, he couldn't help laughing.The master also said that this thing is better than ginseng. If ginseng is so cheap, it is probably worthless long ago.

"Beifeng, look at our harvest, isn't it a lot? Oh right, you came back so early? What can you ask?" Seeing Beifeng take the kudzu root in her hand, Qiangwei couldn't help asking.

Hearing the master's question, Beifeng's face became tangled, and he didn't know how to answer. Originally, the conversation between men was barely acceptable, but if he was asked to learn from the master again, he would always feel a little embarrassed to speak up.

Looking at Beifeng's face, Qiangwei understood, "Why, is it really hard to say?"

"Returning to the master, it is indeed a dirty thing, so don't talk about it!"

"Did someone's life be solved by them in private?" Qiangwei felt that there must be conflicts between these remnant soldiers and the villagers, otherwise, everyone would not be like this.

"There was indeed a murder case, and it was the widow Wang in the village who died, but the Wang family felt ashamed, and no one stood up for her, and those people took the money, so this matter was suppressed in such a muddled way. At that time Everyone in the village knows about this matter, but they subconsciously don't want to talk about it." Beifeng said, and saw the master's face was very ugly.

"According to Zhang Jiaxin, although it is somewhat pitiful to say that the woman died, the relationship between her and those people is not clear, and it will be a matter of time before she encounters danger." Mixing with a group of idle men, he himself It's just not self-respecting enough.Coupled with some private transactions, it is difficult to think of nothing.

When Zhang Jiaxin told him, even he was a little shocked when he heard it, how tough a woman is, and she has to deal with several men.Those people didn't do anything after eating and drinking, and they were full of brute force. They were all like wolves who had been hungry for many years.

It is because of their excessive indulgence and lack of restraint that after a few rounds, they find that they have lost their energy.It wasn't until then that they realized that they had caused trouble. They were also afraid that the matter would be exposed. If Lord Hou knew about it, they would definitely not let them go.So, in order to make up for it later, they pooled money to suppress this matter.
