Xianggong came from the mountains

Chapter 15 I Have a Good Idea

Xiao Chu thought about it calmly and asked, "Do you know herbs?"

Xia Qinghe nodded like a chicken eating rice. She may not be very good at other things, but she knows a lot of herbs and said: "I know some herbs, but there are no medicines in the mountains."

Just thinking about it makes me cringe.

Xiao Chu gave Xia Qinghe a blank look. He had never seen Xia Qinghe so clueless.

"Look at the bare mountaintop, there is nothing but pine trees. The real herbs are in the woods and mountain streams. If you want to find herbs, you will come to me after dinner and prepare some dry food. I will take you there. In the deep valley of the mountain stream."

Xiao Chu is trying to help her?

Xia Qinghe was happy in her heart, she really never thought that Xiao Chu would be so enthusiastic and willing to help her.

Before leaving, Xiao Chu gave her four fish, and enthusiastically helped her kill and clean them up, and returned home with the fish tied with straw.

Zhu Xiaochang was catching butterflies in the yard, and when he saw Xia Qinghe came back, he hurried forward: "Aunt Chu came to provoke you just now."

As soon as she heard about Aunt Chu, Xia Qinghe had a bad feeling. It was because Aunt Chu had no good intentions for her.

"Did she tell me what to do with me?" She carried the fish into the house, thinking about making fish soup directly.

There is only a little bit of oil left, and she feels that she is quite extravagant in the past two days and has almost used up the oil, so she is going to use the little bit of oil left to fry fish and make soup.

Zhu Xiaochang went to light the fire behind the stove very sensiblely.

"She said she asked you to go to her house when you have time. I think she just has no good intentions. She always said that I am a fool who can't marry a wife. I don't like her at all."

Zhu Xiaochang sniffed and said unwillingly.

Xia Qinghe was thinking about going to the mountain, so he quickly washed the fish and fried them.

She glanced at Zhu Xiaochang, who was sitting quietly behind the stove and burning the fire, and saw Zhu Xiaochang suddenly burst into tears: "Qinghe, Aunt Chu said that my parents will never come back, that I am a child without a father and a mother." , Said that you will run away with other men in the future, and that I will starve to death..."

Zhu Xiaochang suddenly said this, and Xia Qinghe's heart tightened when she heard it. She always thought that it was best for Zhu Xiaochang to know nothing, and it would be great to be carefree and happy, but she didn't want to...

Zhu Xiaochang had to understand some things sooner or later, she put the fish into the pot.

"Aunt Chu is right. Your parents will never come back, and even Zhu Dongmei and Zhu Chunhua won't come back. If I find a man I like, I will marry him. I can't guarantee anything else, but one day I'm here I won't let you go hungry, when the conditions are better and you have money, I'll find you a wife, okay, and your wife will take care of you when the time comes."

I used to get excited when my daughter-in-law Zhu Xiaochang was mentioned, but today Zhu Xiaochang was very sad.

Looking at Xia Qinghe with innocent eyes, she moved her lips slightly and cried even harder.

Now Xia Qinghe didn't know what to do.

The fish in the pot should be turned over, Xia Qinghe quickly turned over and comforted Zhu Xiaochang: "Don't cry, I will ignore you if you cry again." After saying this, Xia Qinghe regretted it a little, and it seemed that threatening Zhu Xiaochang was nothing Glorious thing.

However, this method was very effective, Zhu Xiaochang stopped crying, sobbed and looked at Xia Qinghe, and added firewood to the stove in a numb manner.

Xia Qinghe also felt bad. Although she didn't like Han Pozi and Zhu Dachang very much, it was still a pity to see them die like this.

"Don't be sad. I don't know how to persuade you. What your parents are most worried about is you. You must learn to take care of yourself and live well, so that your parents can rest in peace under the nine springs."

Life and death are impermanent, this era is too turbulent, natural disasters and man-made disasters, if you want to survive, you must pay more efforts.

After adding water to the pot, Xia Qinghe walked up to Zhu Xiaochang, knelt down and looked at Zhu Xiaochang with pity: "Okay, don't cry, I promise you will find you a good wife, and you will have dinner with me later." Mountain."

Although Zhu Xiaochang was a bit stupid, she could still help if she followed along. Besides, she was worried about leaving him alone at home. The people in the village didn't know what to do, so they had to stay far away.

Boiled a few sweet potatoes and put them in the basket, and took a hatchet with Zhu Xiaochang and went to the entrance of the cave where we had avoided a few days ago.

From a distance, he could see Xiao Chu waiting with the craftsman on his back.

Xiao Chu didn't understand why Xia Qinghe brought Zhu Xiaochang here, and couldn't help but look at the two more.

Sensing Xiao Chu's gaze, Xia Qinghe explained: "I don't feel relieved to leave him alone at home, and you know the people in the village."

In the past, Mrs. Han and Mrs. Zhu were there, and Mrs. Han would make a noise if anyone bullied Zhu Xiaochang. Now that people in the village bully Zhu Xiaochang, she can't do anything.

Xiao Chu didn't say much and led the way.

The bottom of the mountain and the top of the mountain are completely two worlds. The vegetation on the top of the mountain is very sparse and there are relatively few trees, but the trees in the valley are lush and lush, and the springs and streams are clear. Even though the grass has withered and yellow in this season, you can still see a lot of edible things.

Not far away, Xia Qinghe stopped, pointed to a vine with withered leaves and said, "There is a yam under this, wait for me and I will dig it out."

Xiao Chu looked around, not interested in what Xia Qinghe was doing, and after making sure that there was no danger, he walked forward.

After walking a few steps, he turned his head and saw Xia Qinghe was putting down the basket and digging with the small hoe in the basket.

"I'll go over there to have a look. After you dig it, wait here for me. This forest is relatively large and it's easy to get lost."

Xia Qinghe was in a great mood. He thought he couldn't find anything, but he didn't want to find yam, so he nodded and agreed with a smile.

Zhu Xiaochang was depressed because of his parents' affairs, and Xia Qinghe didn't intend to come up to help when digging yams. He sat on the ground with his head down and didn't know what to think about.

The tubers of the yam were very large, and the deeper they dug, Xia Qinghe dug up several pieces of the yam and finally dug out the whole yam.

Seeing that Zhu Xiaochang was in a bad mood, she wanted to distract Zhu Xiaochang's attention. She picked up the dug up yam and put it in the back basket, and said with a smile: "This yam is delicious. I will steam it for you when I go back tonight. Eating sweet potatoes every day makes me almost turn into a sweet potato."

I don't know if she ate too many sweet potatoes, but now she naturally feels like vomiting when she mentions sweet potatoes.

Well, it was too much to eat.

Xiao Chu hadn't come back yet, she looked around, it was close to the stream, suddenly a vine wrapped around a cypress tree attracted her, this time it wasn't yam but kudzu vine,

The presence of kudzu vines means that there is kudzu root. When she thinks of kudzu root, she naturally thinks of kudzu root jelly. A plan to make money was formed in her mind, and she ran over excitedly carrying a basket and a hoe.
