Chapter 40 Ginseng
"What's wrong?" Jiang Mixia was sleepy.

"Shall we go for a walk in the mountains tomorrow?" Song Jingyun said.

"What are you doing in the mountains?"

"I want to see if I can catch rabbits, or pheasants, so I came back and stewed them."

Since the life span is so short, the only thing we can do is not to waste every meal, but to eat some delicious food with changing flowers.

Tomorrow, I have to go to the foot of the mountain to chop some bamboo and come back. Jiang Mixia nodded after thinking about it, "It will be done, but we can't go too deep."

She is not a full-time hunter and has no experience in entering the mountains. Although she has all the strength and is not afraid of ordinary beasts, the danger in the mountains is far more than imagined.

"it is good."

Song Jingyun was already very happy that Jiang Mixia could take him into the mountain. He nodded excitedly, lay down and closed his eyes to sleep.

There is a smile on the corner of his mouth.

After breakfast early the next day, Song Jingyun pulled the cart and walked to the foot of the mountain with Jiang Mixia.

In addition to the machete used to chop bamboo, Jiang Mixia also specially brought a few bamboo forks and nets to catch rabbits or pheasants.

There is dew in the morning, and the agility of animals is easily affected by the wet fur. It is a good time for hunting. Experienced hunters basically choose this time to enter the mountain.

In twos and threes, I have met several along the way.

Some are from this village, and some are from neighboring villages.

Seeing that Jiang Mixia parked the cart at the foot of the mountain, tied it to the bamboo, and led Song Jingyun into the mountain with the bamboo basket on his back, looking like he was going hunting, he felt a little funny.

The bamboo fork is not easy to pierce into the flesh, and the movement is also loud, so it is not easy to hunt things. It looks like Jiang Mixia and Song Jingyun are entering the mountain for the first time.

However, many of these farmers just go to the mountains to try their luck, and more often they dig some wild vegetables and pick some mushrooms to subsidize the family, which is not uncommon.

So those people didn't say much, they just reminded Jiang Mixia and Song Jingyun not to go too deep, lest they run into danger.

Jiang Mixia and Song Jingyun thanked them, and only walked in slowly, taking careful note of the way while walking, so as not to go astray when going out later.

In the mountains in the early morning, the eerie coolness penetrates into the bone marrow.

"My lady is thoughtful." Song Jingyun tightened her belt, "The extra clothes will come in handy."

"Hush." ​​Jiang Mixia signaled him to whisper.

Not far ahead, there was a pheasant walking leisurely, looking for food everywhere.

Jiang Mixia pulled the net inside the bamboo basket, thinking about which direction to cast the net from later, so that the pheasant could be caught smoothly.

"I'll do it." Song Jingyun whispered, reaching out to catch the net in Jiang Mixia's hand.

"Then be careful." Jiang Mixia gave him the net, and she walked to the side. Fortunately, if Song Jingyun didn't catch a pheasant, she could stop it here.

After Song Jingyun picked up the net, he tiptoed forward.

The pheasant didn't seem to notice him, it just concentrated on eating a weed.

Song Jingyun saw the opportunity, and immediately cast out the net in his hand.

The pheasant was startled, flapping its wings and trying to break free, but the net was pressing on its body, so it couldn't fly, and couldn't break free, it was only entangled with the net.

Jiang Mixia hurried up to help, fished the pheasant out of the net, tied the wings and legs with rope, and stuffed it into the bamboo basket.

"This pheasant is quite fat." Jiang Mixia weighed the weight, "It can stew a pot of meat."

"Well, it's also delicious when fried. Add more chili slices and fry it into spicy chicken. It's summer, and it's appetizing to eat something spicy."

"It's really not possible, make it into stewed chicken? Tear it into cold salad, the taste seems to be good..."

Jiangmi Xiaxu chattered for a long while, and was a little curious when she saw that Song Jingyun didn't talk to her.

This little son-in-law is the most gluttonous, and now he doesn't even care about it?
"What's wrong?" Jiang Mixia was even more surprised when she saw that Song Jingyun was only staring at the grass under her feet, "What's wrong with this grass."

"It's nothing, it's just that the grass is so beautiful." Song Jingyun raised his head and asked, "Can I dig it back and plant it in the yard at home."

Does this grass look good?

Jiang Mixia sized up the grass that Song Jingyun was staring at.

It is not tall, the stem is not thick, and there are a few leaves growing sparsely. It cannot be said to be extremely ugly, but at least it is ordinary, anyway, it has nothing to do with beauty.

This kind of grass is no different from weeds when planted in the yard, which is a bit of an eyesore.

But since the little son-in-law likes it, just dig it back and plant it.

The big deal is that she should be more careful in the future, and just get rid of weeds.

"Sure, just dig if you want." Jiang Mixia took out the bamboo fork, used it as a simple small hoe, and helped Song Jingyun dig together.

Seeing this, Song Jingyun also found a thin piece of stone from the side, and planed together.

It's just a piece of grass, and it's not considered lush. The root system is supposed to be not deep, so Jiang Mixia didn't care at first.

But as she dug, she began to feel something was wrong.

The rhizome of this grass is not only a little deep, but also seems to be a little big.

After digging out everything and seeing the whole picture of the grass, Jiang Mixia fell into deep thought.

"This grass grows really strangely. The roots are bigger than the branches and leaves." Song Jingyun scratched his ear, "If you take it back like this, will it die? Do you want to paste another layer of mud on it to cover the roots?"

He remembered that Jiang Mixia said that when transplanting flowers and plants, the roots must be protected. If the roots are not protected, the grass will die easily.

"I guess it's not necessary."

"Why?" Song Jingyun was a little curious.

"This is no ordinary grass, this..." Jiang Mixia's voice was hoarse, "This is ginseng."

"Ginseng? What is that?" The little son-in-law was puzzled.

"A kind of medicinal material, um, a very expensive medicinal material. Although I don't know how old it is, but judging by its size, it should be worth a lot of money."

Jiang Mixia paused, "I guess, it shouldn't be lower than those three pearls."

"So much money?" Song Jingyun took the ginseng plant and looked it over carefully, "I mean, no wonder I think this ginseng plant looks good, so it's because it's valuable."

Jiang Mixia, "..."

Are you sure it wasn't luck?

Jiang Mixia felt more and more that Song Jingyun had good luck, so he just stared at him and looked at him, trying to figure out why he was so lucky.

"My lady, what are you doing looking at me like that?" Song Jingyun was a little uncomfortable being looked at, and reached out to touch his face, "Is there something dirty on my face?"

"No, no." Jiang Mixia looked away, "Take a look too, are there any flowers or grasses that look good around here?"

Although Jiang Mixia knew that it was impossible to dig two ginseng trees in a row, but if Song Jingyun was really lucky, he might be able to find other things.

For example, relatively valuable herbs or something.

"Then I'll look for it." Song Jingyun responded and searched around for a while.
