Xie Yushu looked at Xie Tianqi and the Liu brothers again. Xie Tianqi's dig was similar to Xie Yushu's.
Xie Yushu was afraid that he would be tired and asked him to take a rest, but he didn't want to.
Fortunately, there will still be people coming from the Xie family tomorrow, so I can dig out some more and take them back with me!
Xie Yushu felt quite distressed when she saw it. Xie Tianqi was only fourteen years old. In modern times, he was just a junior high school student. But now he was only thinking about making a living for his family. Maybe this is the child of a poor man who has already become the head of the family!
The original owner himself is the same, he is only fifteen, and there is no job that he cannot do at home and outside the house!
The eldest brother of the original owner, Xie Tianlin, is seventeen years old. Like adults, he does the heavy work at home with Xie every day.
This may be the sadness of not being born in a prosperous age!
Look at Brother Liu Qiang again. Three large bundles have been dug, each bundle is as big as Xie Yushu's two bundles!
In the memory of the original owner, Liu Qiang was only nineteen years old. The second oldest brother of the Liu family joined the army and died in the war. The third youngest, Liu Nan, the fourth, Liu Bei, were twins, sixteen years old. The fifth, Liu Dong, was thirteen, the one who fought with Xie Tianqi.
There are four or five younger brothers below, the youngest is only six years old!
I heard that the Liu family’s father also served as a soldier for several years and came back after losing an arm on the battlefield!
The family has a total of more than ten acres of land. In addition to paying taxes on the grain, they can't even eat porridge. The whole family depends on Liu Qiang and Liu Nan and Liu Bei. However, in this era, there are no such convenient conditions as in later generations. I want to find I can't find any place to do any work!
They don’t have much ability or connections. If they don’t want to starve to death, the only solution they can come up with is not the Xiong folks!
Objectively speaking, they have not done anything immoral, including stealing, killing, and setting fires. At most, they only intercepted Zhang Fulai and Wang Jinbao to ask for some food! Sometimes they are forced to sell them some game meat!
Of course, both of them are rich, one is a wealthy family in the village, and the other is the son of a landlord!
But these two ordinary families are not easy to mess with, but their brothers singled them out to bully and lure them! These two guys are not short of money, and they are greedy, so they will do what they do! Over time, it can be regarded as one wish to win and the other to suffer!
However, the Liu brothers' reputation for being domineering gradually spread!
The original owner was also afraid of the Liu brothers, but Xie Yushu came into contact with them in the past two days and felt that the brothers were harmonious, quick and reasonable, and they seemed not as overbearing as the rumors said!
It’s just forced by life!
Seeing that they were digging vigorously, Xie Yushu didn't bother them. Their family has a large population, and there will be many people coming tomorrow, so naturally it would be better to dig more!
"I'll look for medicinal materials in the surrounding areas. Xiao Yi's leg may be cured! You dig it yourself first. If I don't come back, you can transport the yams back to the camp before dark! I'll go back to the camp directly, so you don't need to look for me!"
"Ah? Can my brother-in-law's leg be cured? Okay! Then go quickly! Come back soon!"
Xie Tianqi originally felt guilty for marrying a cripple so that the whole family could survive. Now she was very happy to hear that Xiao Yi's leg had recovered.
"knew!"
After Xie Yushu explained to Xie Tianqi, she picked up her backpack and left.
It is said that there are quite a lot of medicinal materials in the deep mountains and old forests, but the leaves have fallen off and turned yellow, so it is difficult to find them. Xie Yushu has to carefully check the leaves on the ground, or roughly judge what medicinal materials are suitable for growth based on the soil and environment.
The most common herbs are those that clear away heat, detoxify, activate blood circulation and remove blood stasis, such as dianthus, isatis root, motherwort, panax notoginseng, etc. There is no shortage of these, so Xie Yushu did not step on them at all until she came across Dendrobium officinale, and then she stepped on them seriously. stand up!
Xiao Yi's leg was probably useless with traditional Chinese medicine. Xie Yushu guessed that it was probably a broken muscle, which would probably require surgery. However, she didn't have a scalpel or a hemostatic forceps. She wanted to make a set of surgical tools. Cheap, she mainly needs to find some valuable medicinal materials this time!
Sure enough, money is the fundamental solution to the problem!
Dendrobium officinale nourishes the lungs and promotes fluid production, nourishes yin and clears away heat, and returns to the stomach and kidney meridian. It is a good medicine for treating febrile disease and body fluid injury, deficiency of stomach yin, yin deficiency and excessive fire, bone steaming and fatigue, and weak muscles and bones.
In the previous life, wild Dendrobium officinale, which was more than five years old, cost about 1,500 yuan per kilogram.
She didn't know how much money it cost here, because the original owner's grandfather only treated diseases for ordinary people, and those who needed to treat the symptoms were replaced with other cheap medicinal materials with similar effects!
But good things can be found anywhere, and this piece of Dendrobium officinale was in excellent condition and looked to be more than ten years old, so she felt that the price would not be too low.
It took half an hour to pick all these dendrobiums and put them into half a backpack, which weighed twenty or thirty kilograms to carry. Xie Yushu was very satisfied that it was not in vain that she worked sweating under the bright sun for so long!
Looking at the sun, it was probably three o'clock in the afternoon. Xie Yushu rested for a while, ate a piece of barbecue, drank some water and started a new journey.
In fact, she didn't have any goals, so she just wandered around the mountains blindly. The mountains were so big that no one could tell where the medicinal materials would grow! What you find depends on luck!
After wandering around for more than two hours, I came across a beehive on the way. It was a little bigger than a watermelon and weighed six or seven pounds. All the bees were gone, but the honey was still there. Xie Yushu picked it off politely and said no. You can eat honey when you get stung, just like picking it up for free!
Xie Yushu couldn't wait to cut off a small piece and ate it. It was fragrant, sweet and very delicious. She felt like she was alive again after being half-dead from exhaustion!
Looking at the sky, it was about midnight (after five o'clock in the afternoon), so I planned to rest for a while and then go back to the camp!
He looked around and chose a stone to rest under a big tree. As soon as he sat down, he just fanned himself to enjoy the coolness. After sitting for a while, he could faintly smell a faint odor, like a rotting animal entity. The taste is just faint and not obvious.
It has always been a thirsty thing! After looking around, I didn't see any dead animals. Forget it, let's move to another place!
Xie Yushu stood up and bent down to pick up the backpack. The smell became stronger and made her frown. When she looked up, it turned out that there was a thigh-thick round hole under the stone, but it was blocked by a piece of withered yellow weeds in front. She didn't see it just now!
Did some animal die in the cave? Such a thick hole must belong to a pangolin! But for some reason, she thought it must be a snake cave, and she doubted that there would be such thick snakes in the north!
Xie Yushu was most afraid of snakes. She had no choice but to get water yesterday. She didn't want to see this thing if she could not see it. She immediately suppressed her suspicion, picked up the basket and left!
But after taking a few steps, he stopped. For such a big snake, even the little snakes there can find water. There is no reason for such a big snake to die of thirst in the cave! Xie Yushu's mind flashed like lightning.
"Exotic treasures must be protected by strange beasts!"
Is there a treasure nearby?
call! The heartbeat is so fast!
Xie Yushu gritted her teeth and returned, risking her life! Take a gamble!
