Huanxi Farm: Pick up a husband for farming

Chapter 4 Fengming Mountain

They both turned their heads to look, the street was in chaos at this moment, the stolen man started to run after the thief, at this moment, a person flashed out from the slanting stab, he put down the big bag and small bag in his hand, kicked in a roundabout, The thief was kicked right on the spot, kicked three meters away on the spot, and fell to the ground without moving.

At a glance, Rong Shui found that the brave man was the one he met in the salt shop, but he didn't expect him to be a practicing family.He snatched back the money bag stolen by the thief, and returned it to the person who was stolen. The person thanked him a thousand times. He shook his head calmly, and walked away briskly with those packages.

"Isn't that Xiaoduan, the servant of the Li family!" Rong Shui turned around and said when he saw the person in the jewelry store.

"That's right, I just bought a lot of rouge and gouache from us."

"He, he really either doesn't see him once every three months, or he buys it for three months at a time. Hey, do you know where the Li family he mentioned is?"

"I really don't know. I only know that there is a young master in his family. You say, the Li family must be very rich. If you can marry my daughter, wouldn't it be a good thing?"

"Come on, your pockmarked daughter also wants to marry the young master of the Li family? Didn't you read that Xiao Duan only buys expensive things every time he buys?"

"Why is my daughter's face full of pockmarks? Let me tell you, if you talk nonsense again, I will beat someone!"

Seeing that the helper in the jewelry store had started arguing by himself, and it was not good to bring Rongshui in, Rongming promised Rongshui that he would buy her the most beautiful head flower next time, and took her to prepare to go home.

Naturally, Rongshui didn't care about these things. She was thinking about that short paragraph in her heart. First of all, the master he said must not be short of money, but if he didn't come out for three months, he would buy enough for three months. Things sound a little suspicious.And a servant is not a nursing home, why is he so agile?
She thought about it for a while, and finally felt that it was none of her business, so she gave up and turned to worrying about how to make a fortune.

How to get rich quickly?In this era, there are only two ways out, one is to become an official and the other is to do business.

As a girl, she is naturally unable to pass the scientific examination. She can only pin her hopes on her second brother, Rong Qing. Unfortunately, she invested too much in the early stage, and she still doesn't know if she can pass the examination. The only way left is to do business. .

But she walked around the market, but she couldn't find any advanced business opportunities. Ordinary things can be bought here, and the people here don't seem to be rich for those weird things. I'm afraid they won't be able to sell the place.

Rong Shui thought about it, and felt that since he couldn't find anything in the market, he should find another way. As the saying goes, they rely on mountains to eat, and their village is surrounded by mountains on three sides. When the time comes, go to the mountains to see what is there find out.

In fact, she also studied traditional Chinese medicine before she did brain nerve research in her previous life. She plans to go to the mountains to look for herbs that can be sold after returning home.

On the way back, they were not so lucky, they could only walk on two legs. At the end, she still couldn't hold on, and was carried all the way home by Rong Ming. Rong Shui thought to herself, my body is still I'm too thin, so I'll have to find a way to get some eggs and milk to supplement it in the future.

After returning home, Mrs. Li was relieved to see Rongshui who had returned safely, and hurriedly washed the dirt off her face, and she turned back into that white and tender little loli.

Soon it was time for dinner, and the poor Rong family didn't have anything delicious, nothing more than some vegetable cakes, millet, and sorghum rice. Rong Shui lost his appetite looking at the pig-like food, and added sorghum rice The coarse gravel was hard to swallow, and after a few mouthfuls, she excused herself from being uncomfortable and put down her job.

That's all for food, Rong Shui, who was used to being a loner in her previous life, couldn't bear to share the same bed with others, but where would the Rong family have a separate house for her to sleep in?She could only sleep together with Rong Wan and Rong Xiaomei. In the middle of the night, she woke up hungry because she didn't have enough dinner. She secretly got up and went to the kitchen to see what was left, but naturally there was nothing.

After all, in the eyes of the rest of the Rong family, no matter how rough the sorghum rice is, it can still fill their stomachs, and there will be absolutely no leftovers.

Rong Shui had no choice but to walk to the yard to relax with his empty stomach, and looked up to see the stars all over the sky, like a lot of diamonds sprinkled on the dark blue velvet, the silver light shone, it was too beautiful to behold, but unfortunately, she was so hungry that she couldn't No time to enjoy the beautiful scenery, full of nostalgia for the all-you-can-eat delicacies in the previous life, thinking that enough is enough, she wants to make a lot of money, she wants to live in a big house, she wants to occupy a room by herself, and she wants to eat delicious food!

Early the next morning, after stuffing a few mouthfuls of rice in a hurry, she carried a basket on her back and was about to go out. She was grabbed by Mrs. Li and asked, "Ah Shui, where are you going?"

Rong Shui said: "Aniang, I heard that brother Zhuzi who went to a private school said that if you are bedridden for a long time, you need to exercise more, so that your body will recover quickly. I feel much refreshed now, so I want to go Take a look at the back of the mountain, and pick up some fungus to eat."

Mrs. Li didn't become suspicious when she heard this, but said: "You can go to the back mountain, but you can only go up to the mountainside at most. You can't go to the top of the mountain, remember?"

Rong Shui nodded obediently and said, "Understood."

Only then was Li Shi relieved, and told her to come back before lunch, gave her a vegetable cake, and let her go out.

Rong Shui started to go up the mountain with vegetable cakes in his arms, full of ambitions in his heart, wishing to find a large piece of ginseng as soon as he entered the mountain, and make a fortune easily.For this purpose, she secretly took a lot of Rong Wan's red strings used to tie her hair, thinking that if she really found ginseng, it would be useful.

The mountain that Rongshui is going to is also quite famous in Jiangcheng. It is called Fengming Mountain. It is said that a phoenix once passed away here.With the blessing of this myth and legend, many literati would like to visit Fengming Mountain when they travel.

But since a year ago, Fengming Mountain has started to be haunted. Whether it is a literati or a hunter, as long as they go to the top of the mountain, they will encounter many unimaginable and creepy things. When they come back, they are frightened and ask them. No matter what you encounter, you will only say "there is a ghost".Since more and more incidents like this happened, rumors of Fengming Mountain being haunted spread all over the country. Since then, Fengming Mountain has become deserted, and no one has set foot on the top of the mountain.

But Rongshui doesn't take these rumors to heart. She is a highly educated scientist with a materialistic spirit, so she doesn't believe that ghosts really exist in this world.

Before he knew it, Rongshui had already reached the top of the mountainside. Along the way, he picked up a few mushrooms and found some herbs, but they were all herbs with little economic value that can be seen everywhere, such as plantain, mint, etc. She couldn't sell it at a price after picking it, which made her a little frustrated.

She was a little hungry, took out the vegetable cake while walking, bit it down, almost broke her teeth, so she put it away resentfully, and missed the soft texture of cake and bread in her heart.

Suddenly, she saw a tree full of red fruits, and she couldn't help being overjoyed, and ran over.

That kind of fruit is about the size of a plum, bright red, very attractive, Rong Shui picked one off and put it in his mouth to chew, and found that it had no taste, even a bit astringent.

She knew this kind of fruit, it was called "Yangdan Miao" in her hometown in her previous life, and it was edible, but no one ate it, only sheep liked to eat it.

Rong Shui held a Yang Dan Miao and fell into deep thought.Yesterday when she passed those candied fruit shops in the market, she glanced once or twice, and found that they sold nothing more than some candied peach slices, plums and apricots. sell away?

Anyway, it is not poisonous and can be imported, but it has a bit of astringency, so no one eats it, but as long as it can get rid of the astringency, it may not be impossible to try it, and now is the season full of sheep Danmiao, and there are many ingredients. No cost.

She was thinking here when suddenly a clear young voice came, mocking: "Idiot, you can't eat that."

Rong Shui turned around and saw a young man not much older than her original owner standing under a green pine tree, looking at her with a half-smile.He was wearing a set of black straight skirt with silver piping on the right lapel, a wide robe with large sleeves, and the material was rich and noble at first glance.Standing there with one hand behind his back, his chin raised slightly to look at Rong Shui, he had a majestic aura at such a young age, no need to guess, he knew that he must be the son of a wealthy family.

Rong Shui looked at his young adult appearance, obviously he was only a child in his teens, but he put on that serious expression, thought it was a little funny, and wanted to tease him, so he pretended to be ignorant: "I'm not If you don’t believe me, this looks so good, it must be delicious too!” As he spoke, he put the Yang Dan Miao into his mouth, and just after eating, his complexion suddenly changed, and he covered his stomach, and said to the boy: “I, I'm poisoned...ah, my stomach hurts..."

Moaning in pain, he squatted down.The young man became anxious immediately, and hurried to Rong Shui, while helping her, he reprimanded her: "I said you can't eat it! Why are you so stupid! Spit it out! The sir is right, this is poisonous and cannot be eaten! "

Seeing the young man being fooled, Rong Shui couldn't help but burst out laughing, unable to act any longer.

Only then did the boy realize that Rong Shui was lying to him, he stood up angrily and walked away, angrily said: "You little liar!"

Seeing that the young man was really angry, Rong Shui said: "Don't be angry, I lied to you because you called me a fool the moment you came."

The boy turned around and flicked his sleeves, and said in displeasure, "Aren't you an idiot? What are you doing eating that kind of food!"

Rong Shui shrugged, took another Yangdanmiao and threw it into his mouth, he said vaguely while eating, "This is called Yangdanmiao, it is edible, you are the idiot."

The young man was about to get angry, but when he saw that Rong Shui had eaten Yang Dan Miao and was completely safe, he realized that he was wrong, but he refused to admit it, and turned his back to Rong Shui angrily.

Rong Shui heard what "Mr." said from him was poisonous, probably his husband didn't want him to eat this, and lied to him that it was poisonous, so this young man believed it.

However, he is also kind-hearted, and he was so anxious when he pretended to be poisoned, which shows that he is a kind-hearted person.Rong Shui thought to himself, he shouldn't bully him too much, and said: "Okay, I'm an idiot, don't be angry. Let me ask you, who are you? Why are you here alone?"
