Chapter 408: Gastrodia
Jiakang Jiayuan led Jiajun into the forest in the morning, and when it was time to eat at noon, she didn't come back, so the old lady was in a hurry.
"Where are these kids? Why haven't you come back yet? It's really sad, this day is all wild. ”
"Mother, it's useless for you to be in a hurry, who knows where they went?
This forest is now more familiar than me, don't be afraid, maybe I'll be back later.
These children rarely have a holiday, and they are all wild, and it's okay. I told them not to go deep into the woods.
Now there is nothing to do at this time, and the great beast does not come out. Qiaolian is also worried, they are all children born to her, can she not worry about it?
But the old lady was already uneasy, and if she was also in a hurry, she was afraid that the old lady would be even more anxious.
As the two of them were talking, they heard a chatter outside.
Then I saw Jiakang Jiayuan's three babies carrying baskets on their backs, coming back from outside with smiles on their faces, and before they could enter the door, Jiajun's loud voice began to shout.
"Mom, grandma, my eldest brother and my eldest sister dug up a lot of medicinal herbs and came back, what are they called? Oh, by the way, Gastrodia. ”
"Just your kid's quick mouth, I haven't said anything, you just shouted everything."
Jiayuan, who was in the back, glared at her younger brother and smiled angrily.
Originally, they wanted to quietly dig up medicinal herbs and save them to sell, but today they were so lucky, they met a lot of gastrodia, and the three happy people almost forgot to go home for dinner.
"Mom, there are a lot of gastrodia this year, and we have met a lot.
There are a few seedlings in a pile, and three or four layers of cubs can be dug up underneath, which is very many. ”
Since he has already let his younger brother shout out, it is unlikely that he wants to sell it secretly for money, so Jiayuan generously admitted it.
"Originally, we just wanted to go into the forest to dig up some medicinal herbs, such as ginseng, fritillary, bupleurum, and keel.
When the time comes, take it to the purchase station to sell some money, and keep it to buy a pen or notebook.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I entered the mountain, I found gastrodia, and I almost forgot to go home to eat while digging gastrodia. ”
Since it can't be hidden, then all of them will be confessed, Jiayuan's ghost girl knows that she can't hide it from her mother, so she simply said it.
As he spoke, he untied the basket behind his back, and then poured the gastrodia in the basket to the ground.
Not to mention, these children really dug a lot today, and they poured out a bunch of them just in the basket on Jiayuan's back.
When Jiakang saw it, he also untied the back basket behind his back, poured it together, and at a rough look, he had to have at least thirty or forty catties of fresh gastrodia.
"Ah, how is Gastrodia this year? You still know Gastrodia, amazing. ”
Qiaolian came over and took a look, and sure enough, it was wild gastrodia, and there were not many seedlings, but there were a lot of cubs.
"Mom, I don't know, my eldest sister does, she said she saw it from your medical book.
Said that this thing is a medicinal material, and it is good to treat headaches, and then we really saw it when we went into the mountains, so we dug a lot back. ”
Jiakang was a little embarrassed, he didn't know anything about this thing, and he was all under Jiayuan's command.
"Well, it's gastrodia, and the quality is not bad.
In addition to the fact that those seedlings are not worth much, such large unseeded cubs can still be sold for a good price. ”
Qiaolian stretched out her hand to pull the pile of gastrodia, and the quality was really good.
Qiaolian has lived in Shizuizi for all these years, and it is not that she has not gone into the mountains to dig medicinal materials.
But it's not a lot, once I met three or five trees, I dug out three or four catties.
Like Jiayuan, they have never dug up two baskets like today.
"It looks like this year's gastrodia is a bumper harvest, you are lucky, you can meet so many."
Things in the mountains sometimes depend on luck, and it seems that the children are very lucky to be able to meet so much.
"Okay, don't go into the mountains in the afternoon, wash these days, scrub the brush, I'll cook it at night, and dry it before I can use it."
Fresh gastrodia needs to be concocted and dried before it can be sold, not just dried like this.
"Oh, okay, we got it." The three children replied in unison.
"Okay, hurry up and wash your hands and eat, look at the gray faces you have made, all of them are like flower cats."
I was digging gastrodia in the forest all morning, my head and face were covered with soil, and the weather in early July was already very hot, so I was tired and sweaty.
Good guys, these children's faces, not to mention how beautiful they are, are more flowery than cats.
Qiao Lian hurriedly asked the children to wash their faces and hands, and turned around to go back to clean up the food.
After the children finished washing their hands and faces, Qiaolian also packed up the food, so everyone sat down to eat.
The three babies were tired of digging gastrodia and digging soil in the morning, and they looked very hungry and devoured food.
When the old lady saw this, she felt distressed, "Eat slowly, eat slowly, there are all the food, no one will rob you." As he spoke, he served the children with vegetables.
"Don't go to the mountains in the future, look at you all tired and hungry, the mountains are too dangerous, there are so many insects, and wild beasts.
This morning, I was worried at home, I don't know what you went into the mountains to do, what happened to you. ”
In the past, when the children entered the mountain, either Qu Weiyang followed, or led Ah Huang and Ah Ash, the old lady could rest assured.
But this time, the three babies went into the mountain together, and the old lady didn't stop chattering all morning.
Qiao Lian over there also sighed, she had something to say, but she didn't know how to say it.
It can also be heard from Jiayuan's words just now that these children are worried about their families and want to help their families, so they went into the mountains to dig medicinal herbs.
How to say it, the mind is good, and the child knows how to share the burden for the family when he is older.
And these three babies are really lucky, they can meet so many tianma in the mountains.
The child is tired, as a mother, Qiaolian is also distressed, she wants to tell the children that there is no shortage of money they earn at home, so don't suffer from this.
But when you think about it, saying this to your children is tantamount to erasing your children's sense of responsibility to their families.
It will make them feel that everything they have done is in vain, and then they may not care about their family life in the future.
Not to mention that educating children is a dilemma, how to balance from the middle, this is a science.
Qiaolian can't find that balance now, what she can do is to let the children choose for themselves and do things according to the children's wishes.
"Mother, they are also dedicated to the family, they are all kind, let them be.
I believe they all know in their hearts that they can't go to dangerous places, so we live on the side of the mountain, and it is impossible to prevent children from entering the mountain.
When I was my age, didn't I go to the mountains all day long? At that time, you didn't say anything to persuade me not to go. Qiao Lian smiled.
"A few of you listen well, it's okay to go into the mountains, and it's okay to collect medicine, but you must pay attention to safety, and run quickly if you find something wrong, do you understand?"
It's not easy to raise children, it's too laissez-faire, but you can't enclose all the children, you have to let them contact the outside world.
How many of the children of this age are not out in the wild?
