Chapter 25: Ginseng in the Mountains 2
"Okay, my girl, go and dig. I'll watch over you and won't let anyone disturb you."
Yu Qingqing didn't say anything else, but took out the tools and started digging.
She had read in a book how to dig ginseng, and that every root had to be handled with great care.
Yu Qingqing first cleared the grass near the ginseng, and only started digging when she saw the root.
Fortunately, the soil here is relatively soft and not difficult to dig.
Yu Qingqing held the ginseng plant with one hand and with the other hand about five centimeters away from the plant, digging it up gently, little by little.
Probably because the soil was soft, Yu Qing didn't have to spend too much effort to dig out a ginseng intact.
This ginseng looks to be no more than a hundred years old.
"Daddy, please keep it safe and don't break it."
Yu Qingqing quickly wrapped it with leaves and handed a ginseng directly to Yu Qingshu.
"Okay! Don't worry, girl. I will keep it safe." Yu Qingshu's servile look did not seem manly at all in the eyes of other hunters.
"Brother Yu, what are you doing?" a hunter asked out of curiosity.
"Uh, nothing, my daughter said this is useful to her, so I dug a little, I don't understand." Yu Qingshu could only answer vaguely, just kidding, my daughter said it was a good thing, I definitely can't tell others.
"Daddy, I'll keep it for you." After a while, he dug out three more ginseng roots. These three roots looked like they were about one or two hundred years old.
Yu Qingqing secretly put two ginseng roots into the space. Yu Qingshu didn't notice it anyway, so he said that there were only three roots.
"I'm rich! I'm rich, there's still one last one, and it looks bigger than the others." Yu Qingqing couldn't help but muttering and started digging again.
"Girl, what on earth is this? How can you make money from it?" Yu Qingshu looked at his daughter's money-obsessed look and still wanted to know what it was.
"Dad, I told you this is ginseng," Yu Qing said happily.
"People... Ginseng!" Yu Qingshu began to stutter. So many ginsengs, what kind of luck is this?
"Dad, calm down! Calm down." Soon the last ginseng was dug out.
"Wow, this is so thick, it must be three or four hundred years old. Daddy, I've dug it out, I'll keep it, don't tell anyone."
"Don't worry, my girl. I'm a tight-lipped person. It's been a long time since we last saw you, so we probably have to go back."
They also killed a lot of pheasants and wild rabbits, as well as three stupid roe deer, but they couldn’t kill any wild boars. It was too late in the deep mountains, and something might happen.”
After Yu Qingshu finished speaking, he walked to the place where the hunters rested, muttered a few words, and saw that others were also collecting their prey one after another.
With so much prey and blood, something bad is bound to happen if we wait too long. Anyway, it's been so long, it's time to go back, at least I didn't return empty-handed.
"Okay, Brother Yu, let's go back." A younger hunter also echoed.
My little wife is still waiting at home. The young man thought happily.
So after they packed up, they started to walk back. Yu Qingshu's backpack was full, and only Yu Qingqing carefully protected the ginseng in her arms and carried the mint she had picked earlier and started to walk back.
Deep in the mountains, on top of a cliff, there are three ropes hanging vertically from top to bottom along the cliff.
There was a person on each rope, slowly going down. There was a protrusion in the middle of the cliff.
When the people on the rope were about to reach the ledge, one of them took the lead and ran down and landed steadily on it. Soon, joyful voices were heard from below.
"Boss, here are two ginseng plants." The person who spoke was Chen Ba, a doctor with good medical skills and also Yuan Xichen's secret guard. His name was Yuan Yi, and he was twenty years old.
He carefully took out his tools and dug out the ginseng with professional techniques. Both ginseng plants were intact, the small one was only a few decades old, and the large one looked to be nearly 400 years old.
It seems that the master's injury is old. If I buy a 300-year-old ginseng to use with the medicine, the injury will be almost healed.
Yuan Yi put away the ginseng and shouted, and the people above started to pull people up. The other men in black also started to walk up.
After a few people gathered together, they hunted some prey and then headed back.
Yu Qingqing and his group soon reached the foot of the mountain. After a short rest, they continued on their journey.
"Mom, are you home? I'm back." There was a knock on the door.
Hua Qinglu came out slowly. The voice sounded very familiar. It felt like the voice of his own eldest son.
"Hai'er, are you back?" Hua Qinglu walked to the door and quickly opened it. Standing at the door was a dark-skinned young man with a package on his back.
"Mom, I'm back, it's me." Yu Qinghai looked at his mother, tears almost coming out.
He hadn't seen his mother for a long time. He was still a child after all. It was natural for him to express his true feelings when he saw his mother.
"Hey, dear son, come in quickly. It's good that you're back. I was planning to have your father come to see you in a few days. It's good that you're back.
The villagers have been discussing how to escape famine recently. Life here is getting harder and harder. Now we can only drink the well water and dare not even take a bath."
Hua Qinglu saw his son and spoke in one breath.
"Brother, I miss you so much"!
"Brother, you're back!" Yu Qingji and Yu Qingmei were also surprised to see Yu Qinghai and greeted him together.
"Xiaomei, Xiaoji, you have worked hard at home to take care of our parents. I am back." Yu Qinghai felt even happier when he looked at his two brothers and sisters.
"Why can't I see Dad and Qingqing?" Yu Qinghai looked around but couldn't see his third sister and father.
"Dad and my second sister went hunting in the mountains. They went with other hunters in the village and will probably be back soon," Yu Qingmei explained to Yu Qinghai.
Yu Qingqing and Yu Qingshu also walked to the entrance of the village. Yu Qingshu left two big fat rabbits, a small rabbit, two pheasants, and a silly roe deer, and let them divide the rest among themselves.
When they arrived at the village entrance, they divided the spoils and went home. Basically every hunter got a lot.
If you don't want roe deer, you can get a rabbit and a pheasant. Basically every hunter has two or more pheasants and hares.
Everyone had a happy look on their faces. They went home to do some simple processing and prepared to sell them in the town.
Yu Qingqing and Yu Qingshu also arrived home soon, and were very happy to see their elder brother back. It was now the hour of You, and it was time for dinner.
Hua Qinglu had just put tonight's meal on the table when he saw Yu Qingshu walk in.
There was a silly roe deer hanging on his body, and he was holding a rabbit and a pheasant in his hands. Only the rabbit was alive, and the others looked like they had just died.
"My dear, we have made a good harvest today and we didn't encounter any danger." Yu Qingshu waved the flag in front of his wife as if to take credit.
