Reborn Nongmen Merchant Concubine

Chapter 139

The weather is very hot, and it will be the Dragon Boat Festival in a few days.Taking advantage of the happy event of buying a paddy field at home and the needs of the festival, Mengyuan plans to make a big meal for the family this time, and also satisfy her hunger by the way.

Early in the morning, Mengyuan went up the mountain with a small basket on her back.She wants to remove the wormwood, thatch, and some grass roots that she doesn't know how to express before the dew falls.Before she wore them, every year on the Dragon Boat Festival, she would go to the vegetable market to buy these things and come back to boil water for a bath.

The Dragon Boat Festival, the fifth day of May, is the most poisonous day of the year.And the water boiled with wormwood, thatch and other unknown grass roots can get rid of invisible poisons on the body after taking a bath, such as...wet poison!

For wormwood, it is best to pick the kind with the dew on the leaves not yet dry, that is the best!Others are not so particular.Her grandma told her these things before, because after boiling these things in water and taking a bath, her body smells like medicine.

The reason why she went up the mountain so early was to pick wormwood with dew.Mengxiong and his wife have been working all year round, and they are not yet 30 years old. Every rainy day, their knee joints will hurt for a while, and they will be fine after the rain is over.

Wormwood has the effect of dispelling dampness. Knee joint pain is actually a disease caused by cold and not treated in time.A large part of it is because of lack of money. Apart from working hard, country people will generally ignore it as long as it is not a serious illness.

Meng Yuan dare not say she understands the mountain behind the house very well, but apart from the deep mountain, there is really no place she hasn't been to.

She even walked through the dead place where the dead were buried a few times, but they were all during the day.

As a new human being in the 21st century, she can't say whether she believes in superstitions or not.But there are some things that she can't help but believe, so every time she passes by the dead man's land, she will silently say 'sorry, sorry to bother you'.

Well, it's not that she's not afraid, it's just that due to the pressure of life, some things can only grow in dead places, and today she has a plant that has to be picked by dead people to get all the plants she needs.

It’s almost the holidays, and Mengyuan is going to pick things in the dead place again, so in order not to surprise Li Shi and the baby in her stomach when she goes back, Mengyuan formally took the incense candle and ingots in the dead place behind her back this time. After burning in the fire for a long time, he went to the grave and picked up the things he needed and put them in the basket.

Before leaving, he burned all the paper ingots in his hands. After all, he had to apologize for disturbing the cleanliness of others.

I don't know why, after coming out of the place of the dead, Mengyuan always felt that someone was following her, but when she turned her head suddenly, there was no one, let alone a ghost, except for the leaves rustling by the wind. not seen.

Seeing no one, Meng Yuan felt uneasy in her heart.The steps under my feet are getting bigger.She didn't know who was following her, but in order to save her life, she had to go home quickly.

"Damn it, grandma, I finally came out. Going into the mountains is not as scary as it is today. Could it be that I offended someone in the dead man's land? Impossible? I am very respectful, and I burnt a lot of things for them !"

As the sun went down, Meng Yuan felt a chill in her heart.That kind of coldness is not the coldness of wearing less clothes. On this hot day, she feels cold even if she doesn't feel hot...
"Ka~" Meng Yuan walked too hastily, and one of them accidentally stepped on a loose turquoise.

"Damn, grandma, I didn't read the almanac when I went out today, so I caught up with all the unlucky things. Now I'm fine, my ankle is sprained, and there are people behind me who don't know whether it's an enemy or a friend. Could it be, I really just confessed like this? How could it be possible? She hasn't spent all her money, she hasn't met a beautiful man yet, and she hasn't become a real woman in two lifetimes, so let her die like this... It's too bad!"

Mengyuan fell down and sat on the ground for a long time without getting up.The person staring at her in the dark has also been staring at her, without even moving his position.

He is like a ghost in the forest. He has lived in this mountain for more than ten years. Because people are afraid of the beasts in the mountain, they usually only stay on the outskirts, and the deep mountains have never been close.

And Mengyuan is the third person he has seen besides his parents since he grew up.Out of curiosity and his own safety, as long as Mengyuan appeared around his place of residence, he would hide in the dark and watch Mengyuan's every move.

Meng Yuan sat on the ground, one because her ankle was twisted, and the other was to take the opportunity to see who was behind her.

However, she was still disappointed.She was like this, and the person who followed her didn't even show his face.Well, since she doesn't show up, there's no need for her to stay here. There are still a lot of things to do at home!

He casually grabbed a thick branch beside him to support half of his body weight, and then limped home with the little basket on his back.

"Xiao Li, tell me, is she a good person? But if she wasn't a good person, why would she go up the mountain alone? Don't her family worry about him?"

"Squeak..."

"You're right, she should be a good person! Then next time she goes into the mountains again, little raccoon, you can just follow her. If there is any danger, you can come to me."

"Squeak, squeak~~"

After watching the little figure in front of him completely leave the mountain, he took his little partner 'Little Fox' back to the deep mountain.

He has been out for so long, his mother should be anxious if he doesn't go back.

He didn't know why his mother didn't let him leave the mountain and go out to see the outside world. He wanted to go out very much, but he didn't want to disobey his mother, so he could only watch from a distance when he met strangers. with.

Deep in the mountains, there is a valley.This is where he lives with his parents, but his father is dead, and now only he, his mother and Xiaoli are left.

Pushing open the fence door made of rattan, the woman basking in the sun in the yard heard the voice and said: "Jingtai, where have you been? It's been so long since you came back? Didn't mother tell you? Outside The world here is too dangerous, you have lived here since you were a child, and you don’t understand the sinister intentions of those people outside!"

"Mother, Jingtai didn't go out of the mountain, but saw a little girl in the mountain, she accidentally fell down, it seems that she sprained her foot, I was worried and watched her go down the mountain from a distance before coming back.

Mother, Jingtai always remembers what you said, Jingtai has only one family member, Jingtai will firmly remember what mother said for a lifetime! "

"Oh... it's not mother who blames you. If your father was still here, I wouldn't let you just be trapped in this mountain."

After all, he closed his eyes again.

Jingtai looked at his mother, he knew that mother said this because she thought of his father again.

He has never seen his father since he was born, because he is already dead, so compared with his mother, his concept of his father is actually very vague.

In front of his mother, his father was a taboo. Even though he really wanted to ask what kind of person his father was, he didn't want his mother to be unhappy, so he kept holding back and didn't ask the question he wanted to ask.

Jingtai brought Xiaoli to the kitchen. His mother's health has been bad since she was born, so when he was six years old, his height was not as high as the stove, but he has already started to learn how to make medicinal food to improve his health. Mother's body.

It is also because of the medicinal diet he researched, although my mother's body is not completely recovered, as long as it is not rainy, her body is no different from ordinary people.

"Little raccoon, it will be the Dragon Boat Festival in a few days, you can help me find some wild Ganoderma lucidum later, I want to make a Ganoderma lucidum medicinal meal for my mother."

Jingtai and Mengyuan are like two parallel lines, neither meeting nor intersecting.

It was almost evening when Meng Yuan limped back home.As soon as she entered the house, Mrs. Li looked at her daughter who was fine when she went out in the morning, but when she came back, she changed into this appearance.

Li Shi, who has been more emotional since she was pregnant, yelled: "Her father, come out quickly, our Meng Ya is injured!"

Originally, he was thinking of sneaking back to his room to deal with it before coming out, but now after being yelled at by Li Shi.When Mengxiong, who was still preparing dinner in the kitchen, heard that his daughter was injured, he threw the shovel straight away and ran out to see Mengyuan leaning on a thick branch.

"Hey, dad and mother, I..."

"Father, why are you still standing there? Hurry up and ask the doctor!"

Mrs. Li watched for a long time, but did not see any blood on Meng Yuan's body. Now she saw Meng Yuan leaning on a thick branch, and she just wanted to bend down to lift up Meng Yuan's trouser legs, but Meng Yuan stopped her.

"Father, mother is still pregnant. This belly is so big, how can I bend down!"

"Yunniang, don't make any more trouble. I saw that my girl's foot is sprained. I'll go to the doctor to see if I need any medicine to relieve it!"

"Okay, then go quickly. I'll help my daughter into the room to rest. When the doctor comes, go directly to Meng Ya's room. My daughter is still young, so I can't delay the treatment time."

"Understood, Meng Ya, you have to listen to your mother, don't let her worry, and don't make her petty!"

Mengyuan is speechless, when has she ever acted petty?She is a good young man in the 21st century, okay?Those who make you petty are all the work of the eldest lady, okay?

"Father, I will definitely listen to my mother!"

After Li took off the small basket on Meng Yuan's body, she dragged Meng Yuan back to the room with half a hug and half support.

Mrs. Li may be impatient. Meng Yuan has such a small body, and the food is not bad after so many days, but if she doesn't grow meat, it hurts her foundation after all.But... Li Shi, who looked thin and thin, did not expect to be so strong that he could carry her back to the room half-supported and half-carried.

It's just a pity that her two little arms were pulled... woo woo woo, they were all black.

"Mom, I'm really fine. Look, I just sprained my foot. I'll be fine in a few days!"

"If you don't want to go, why don't you listen? It's all right now, I'm hurt now, see if you can't go up the mountain after you get well!?"
