How to become the richest man by farming

Chapter 22 Digging Pueraria 2

Chapter 22
After Liu Su woke up, all the unusual things happened to him.

But Jiang Yun told Jiang Miao, Jiang Yueshui, and Jiang Yueshan about the Lord of the Land in order to help her reduce her fever.

So much so that now the older members of the family think that the Lord of the Land is protecting Liu Su, while the younger ones think that the Lord of the Land is protecting Jiang Yun.

It was also because Jiang Miao was an insider, that Jiang Yun would sneak an egg into her meal almost every day.

And because Jiang Yang didn't know about it and was not easy to fool around, he only ate it once.

But even so, Jiang Yang knew that Jiang Yun took the two brothers to look for wild eggs near the Earth Temple every day these days.

So when he heard that he was going to weed the earth temple, Jiang Yang subconsciously glanced at Jiang Yun and the others.

Thinking of the three people being arrested for stealing a hoe, Jiang Yang vaguely felt that weeding was not so simple.

But this matter was ordered by Mrs. Zhou, and Jiang Yang went to the Earth Temple with a hoe and a machete without saying a word.

Cleaning up the weeds was not difficult for Jiang Yang. He skillfully took the machete and cut off the intertwined vines on the ground and put them aside, and then used a hoe to dig up the withered weeds by their roots.

Liu Su also carried a machete and wore sackcloth gloves to help cut vines and tie up weeds.

Jiang Yun led Jiang Yueshan and Jiang Yueshui to dig earthworms in the ground that Jiang Yang had dug.

In the planed soil, earthworms fled in all directions, and the three of them used small bamboo pieces to follow the holes drilled by the earthworms.

"Quick, here! Don't let it get away." Jiang Yun exclaimed while digging.

"There's one here too...I caught it!" Jiang Yueshan proudly carried his trophy.

Jiang Yue took a step back subconsciously, and picked the earthworms he had dug into the bamboo basket with bamboo slices.

Jiang Yang dug up a clump of grass and threw it aside. He straightened up and looked at the three people who were digging earthworms seriously. He couldn't help wondering: Did he think too much?

Just as he was thinking about it, Jiang Yun looked up at him, pointed to the roots of the vines under his feet and said, "Fourth Uncle, why don't you dig out this root?"

Jiang Yang glanced at it, bent down and continued weeding, "The kudzu root is too deep, it's not easy to dig."

Jiang Yun: "But if you don't dig out the roots, it will grow again next year."

Jiang Yang said helplessly: "The roots of kudzu vines are buried very deep. If we have to dig out this large area, we won't be able to finish digging until dark."

Jiang Yun said with a sad face: "But if you don't clean it up, the Landlord will be unhappy, right?"

The two brothers Jiang Yueshan and Jiang Yueshui nodded seriously: If the father-in-law of the land is unhappy, the eldest sister will not be able to pick up wild eggs.

Liu Su also agreed, "Since it needs to be removed, it's good to clean it once, and it will be easier next year." He said and looked at Jiang Yang, "How about I dig it? Anyway, I have nothing to do at home every day. Dig a little, take your time and it will be cleaned up."

How could Jiang Yang let Liu Su, who had just recovered, do this job, so he could only dig with a hoe...

……

With a muffled "pop", half of the kudzu root was thrown aside by Jiang Yang.

Jiang Yang looked at the big half of the thick root system, shook his head and said: "This piece of kudzu vine has grown for too long, and the roots are too deep. We have dug almost a foot and have not bottomed out. Sister-in-law, we really want to Dig up all these roots?"

Liu Su frowned slightly and sighed: "I didn't expect this root to be so deep..."

"Yeah, why don't we clean up the other grasses, tie up these kudzu vines and go back to the fire, let's forget about these roots, at worst, they will grow back next year, and I will cut them off again."

Liu Su seemed a little moved, and curiously stepped forward to pick up the half kudzu root...

"Huh? Could it be... kudzu root?" Liu Su hesitated.

Jiang Yang raised his eyebrows, "It's true that the root of the kudzu root is called kudzu root."

"No, the kudzu root I'm talking about is a medicinal material, and this is a medicinal material."

Jiang Yun leaned forward with a "wow", "Mother, how do you know it is medicinal?"

Liu Su said with a smile: "Because my mother has eaten it, this kudzu root is a good thing. It is not only a medicinal material, but also a food. I will make it for you when I go back."

Jin Ba who knows the truth: ... finally knows who Jiang Yun's acting talent is.

Jiang Yang looked at the half kudzu root in Liu Su's hand, and dared not say anything: "Is this really a medicinal material?"

"My mother said it must be! Fourth uncle, you follow Mr. Su all day long, didn't he tell you? Didn't you study hard and forget?"

Jiang Yun looked at Jiang Yang with distrust, and complained to Jin Ba in his head: "Uncle Si is so old, he is less serious about studying than me."

Jiang Yang said speechlessly: "...Mister never taught me this."

Although he often went to collect herbs with Mr. Su, Mr. Su usually only taught him to recognize some commonly used medicinal materials.

Jiang Yun thought of Mr. Su who kicked her out because of losing chess, and secretly said to Jin Ba: "Mr. Su is really stingy."

Jin Ba: ...Haven't you ever thought that he kicked you out because you were too annoying?
Liu Su knew the reason, and explained: "Mr. Su has a reason for doing this. At the beginning, a villager wanted to collect herbs and go down the mountain to sell them. After asking Mr. Su for a little knowledge, he picked the herbs and went down the mountain to sell them. However, because he didn't understand the medicine clearly , mixed with some poisonous ones, and was almost turned away by the people from the pharmacy. In the end, it was Mr. Su who interceded with the pharmacy before releasing him."

Jiang Yun suddenly realized, "It turns out that Mr. Su is afraid that someone will take the wrong medicine and be sent to the government..." Then forgive me.

Jiang Yun thought for a moment that Mr. Su used to visit Liu Su to see a doctor, and said to Jin Ba with emotion: "Mr. Su is actually a good man."

Jinba: ...

Liu Su nodded, "I'm also afraid that some people will pick the wrong food by themselves."

Jiang Yang heard about this for the first time, remembering what Mr. Su had said to him, Jiang Yang also said solemnly: "Mr. Su said that many medicinal materials look similar but have very different properties, even one is medicine and the other is poison. So I was never allowed to collect medicine in private."

After finishing speaking, Jiang Yang looked at the kudzu root in Liu Su's hand and said hesitantly: "Mr. Su didn't teach me to recognize kudzu root, so I'm not sure if it's a medicinal material...Sister-in-law, are you sure it's edible?"

Liu Su glanced at Jiang Yun who was nodding frantically, nodded slightly and said, "I'm sure."

Jiang Yang patted Jiang Yun speechlessly, "Why are you nodding?"

Jiang Yun said confidently: "I ordered it for my mother!"

Jiang Yang thought about it, and decided to dig. Mr. Su should be back soon, and then ask Mr. Su to identify it. If he makes a mistake, he has the right to weed.

This time Jiang Yang dug with great enthusiasm.

In the afternoon, Old Man Jiang and Jiang Bai, who came back from selling firewood, also rolled up their sleeves and joined in.

Jiang Yun and the three excitedly followed to pick up earthworms.

The soil turned up by digging kudzu roots is much larger than digging grass roots, which is much easier than digging with bamboo slices.

Liu Su was responsible for tidying up the hay and vines, and filling in the dug holes.

Naturally, the movement of the Earth Temple cannot be concealed from the villagers.

It has long been rumored that Liu Su and Jiang Song's improvement is due to the blessing of the Land Lord.

At first everyone thought they were going to clean up the weeds around the Earth Temple.

As a result, in the evening, I saw that they not only picked back the withered grass and vines, but also picked away the kudzu roots that had been dug out basket by basket.

Withered grass and vines can be picked up to make a fire, but what can kudzu roots be picked up to do?Can it still be eaten?
