Back to 1978: Getting rich starts with treasure hunting

This is the first time in the past twenty years that Gu Jiu's family has worried him so much since he left home.

The shipped dried fruits did not arrive so quickly, so he and his brothers took the train back to the provincial capital.

After getting off the train, I went to the company with a few brothers to hand over some things. It was already two o'clock in the afternoon when I got home.

The twins were taking a nap in a small cot on the first floor. Wang Suzhen, who was standing by, heard footsteps outside the door and looked up. "You're back? Why didn't you call in advance? Have you eaten?"

After a long journey, Gu Jiu put his luggage on the ground, walked a few steps to the crib, and stared at the two babies intently, "Mom, I found that the two children have grown a lot in more than a month."

"Babies grow up in the wind, and they must have grown a lot in more than a month. Do you want to eat?" Wang Suzhen asked again, afraid that he would go home hungry.

Gu Jiu looked down at his wrinkled clothes and shook his head: "No, I already ate when I was at the company. You watch them first, I'll go upstairs to wash and change into clean clothes."

Wang Suzhen said "oh" and watched the boy quickly go up the stairs.

After a while, he stood at the stairs again and asked anxiously, "Mom, where is Shushu?"

Wang Suzhen cursed inwardly, "This brat, he was in a hurry to go upstairs after coming back. It turns out he is in a hurry to find a wife."

"She went up the mountain today and will probably be back later."

"Up the mountain?"

Gu Jiu frowned slightly and shook his head, "She really is always busy."

When Dabao woke up, he found a tall man holding Erbao and kissing him left and right. He was about to call him a scoundrel when he found that the figure looked familiar.

Gu Jiu noticed the movement in the crib and leaned over to take a look. "Hey, kid, are you awake? Did you get enough sleep?"

As he said this, he handed the second baby who was biting his fingers in his arms to Wang Suzhen.

She turned around and carried Dabao to the bathroom to help him pee, and made a bottle of milk for him. "Mom, Dabao is getting better and better. He doesn't cry or make a fuss when he wakes up. He even looks at me seriously with his eyes open."

Wang Suzhen smiled and said, "He hasn't seen you for more than a month, and he's trying to recognize you."

Everyone likes a good baby, and she is no exception.

The baby's black eyes are rolling, bright as a mirror, clear as water, which makes people's hearts melt.

Gu Jiu held him in one hand and held the bottle in the other, "What's wrong? Don't you recognize your dad? Do you feel strange after not seeing him for a month?"

"Kid, remember, I'm your dad. I'm responsible for washing your butt and making milk for you at home. No matter who you forget, you can never forget me, your dad."

Dabao looked at his moving lips with sympathy.

Good luck to you, my dad.

......

At this time, Lin Shu on the mountain didn't know that Gu Jiu had already returned home.

At this moment she found a lot of shade ferns on the mountain.

Shade fern generally grows in the southwest or south China. It is a perennial herb with the effects of clearing heat and detoxifying, calming the liver and extinguishing wind, relieving cough, stopping bleeding, improving eyesight and removing cataracts.

In some places it is also called a cloud, sky-breaking cloud, scattered blood leaves, chicken claw lotus, etc.

The whole plant can be used as medicine and is generally harvested in spring and autumn.

The system now buys one yuan per kilogram.

Lin Shu had just collected them when he discovered two eight-clawed golden dragons growing under the big tree next to him, which is also called a house full of gold and jade in some places.

After collecting the eight-clawed golden dragon, I found a bunch of large-leafed stonewort.

Autumn in the mountains is the season for harvesting herbs. The herbs that have grown wildly throughout the summer are slowly maturing and slowing down their growth.

[Host, there is a patch of fir mushrooms five meters ahead of you. There are five or six wild codonopsis pilosula to the left of the fir mushrooms.]

Lin Shu took a breath and climbed up according to the system's instructions. He finally climbed up a dirt slope half a person's height. The slope above was relatively flat and covered with a large area of ​​fir fungi.

[Hoo, system, you found the fir tree fungus nest. ]

If she picked up all the grass in such a large area, her old waist would be broken.

Although she felt sorry for her old waist, it was impossible for her to give up this piece of mushroom.

If you don't pick it up when you find it, it's a waste.

Having been frugal all his life, Lin Shu couldn't afford to waste money.

I could only touch these mushrooms quickly and watch as a steady stream of mushrooms entered the system and the balance continued to rise.

The sense of accomplishment is instantly full.

After finally collecting the mushrooms and wild codonopsis, the system told her that there was a nest of black ginseng underground in front of her left.

If you dig it normally, nine out of ten black ginseng will be hollow, which will make you doubt your life.

Black ginseng is very difficult to dig, which is many times more difficult than digging rhizomes of medicinal herbs.

However, Lin Shu had the system to help her, so she didn't have to dig into the ground with a hoe.

Follow the system prompts to find the black-stalked charcoal fungus growing on the ground. With a light touch, the black ginseng underground will enter the system.

It's that simple.

Lin Shu couldn't help but sigh once again that this cheating tool of the system was really useful.

After storing the black ginseng into the system, Lin Shu sat down to rest for a while, took out the kettle and drank a few sips of water. He looked at his watch and it was almost three o'clock in the afternoon.

[System, it's getting late today, we should go back. When we go down the mountain, please remind me if there are any herbs.]

After regaining some strength, Lin Shu put the kettle into the storage compartment and started walking down the mountain.

It is easy to go up the mountain, but difficult to go down the mountain.

The ground is quite slippery and it is easy to fall and roll down the mountain if you are not careful.

[Host, there is a stone lotus growing on the stone on your right. There are also many stone orchids growing next to the stone. You can harvest them all.]

[Host, there are two longevity bamboos three meters ahead. ]

Lin Shu: [Longevity Bamboo?]

If she remembered correctly, she had never picked the longevity bamboo before.

[The Longevity Bamboo and Polygonatum multiflorum look very similar, just below the slope in front of you. It grows in branches, and has seeds under its leaves.]

'Flowers bloom for wealth and bamboos herald peace' refers to the longevity bamboo. Legend has it that it can prolong life, hence the name 'Longevity Bamboo'.

Wanshou bamboo is very precious and its rhizome is used as medicine.

It has the effects of moistening the lungs and relieving cough, strengthening the spleen and eliminating accumulation.

Lin Shu decided to sell one to the system and keep one for his family to use to stew chicken. This kind of chicken soup is very nutritious.

After harvesting the Wanshou bamboo, Lin Shu found a few Asparagus cochinchinensis and Stemona buds nearby and harvested them without the system's reminder.

Stemona bud is a vine herb, and in some rural areas it is called "bitter herb with many seeds".

The reason why it is said that the more children there are, the more suffering the mother suffers is because it has a lot of rhizomes underground.

We finally reached the foot of the mountain and found a lot of Bible tea on a dead tree.

Bible tea is very similar to Pyrola, but the leaves of Bible tea are thinner, smoother and hairless, and it likes to grow on ancient or dead trees, while Pyrola likes to grow on stones.

This time, Lin Shu personally picked the Bible tea and prepared to go back and dry it to make tea for the elders at home.

Bible tea nourishes yin and kidney, regulates endocrine system, and is a very high-quality health tea.

After harvesting the Bible tea, Lin Shu wiped the sweat off his forehead and looked at the time. It was already four o'clock in the afternoon.

It’s getting late, so I quickly get my bike out and ride home.

When I got home, I parked my bike and put my tools in the utility room.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw Gu Jiu holding a child.

He is tall, has long legs and is well-dressed.

Looking at her again, she was wearing dark work clothes, her hair was a mess from being in the forest, and her hands were covered in mud.

The comparison between the two is like a noble young man from a wealthy family and a fire-making maid.

"My God, are you going into the woods?"

Wang Suzhen came out of the kitchen and looked at Lin Shu's miserable appearance in surprise.

"Mom." Lin Shu stuffed the cloth bag into her hands. "This is Bible tea. Please use a dustpan to dry it. There is also a longevity bamboo in the bag. Buy a chicken tomorrow and make soup. It is very nourishing to the body."

"Oh, okay, okay." Wang Suzhen took the cloth bag, opened it and looked at the herbs inside, but she didn't recognize them.

Erbao was having a great time playing with his dad, but suddenly he saw Lin Shu coming back and instantly felt hungry again.

I miss the taste of breast milk.

“Oh, oh…”

Gu Jiu hugged Erbao tightly, who was about to throw himself on Lin Shu, and shook his head helplessly, urging Lin Shu: "Go upstairs and wash up quickly. Erbao hasn't seen you for a day and misses you very much."

Lin Shu nodded, looked around the living room, and asked, "Where's Dabao? Is he sleeping upstairs?"

"Mom is taking Dabao out for a stroll." Gu Jiu coaxed the noisy Erbao.

"Oh, then I'll go upstairs and wash up first."

Lin Shu gathered her hair and quickly went upstairs.

Gu Jiu looked at Lin Shu's back as she went upstairs and raised his eyebrows slightly, "My dear, is your mother in a bad mood today?"

The one who answered him was Erbao's baby talk of "ah ah oh oh".

Liu Xiao'e brought Dabao home from a stroll and started to complain to Gu Jiu, actually she was just showing off.

"Your son is a homebody. He's been playing outside for so long, and when he sees the sun setting, he'll go home no matter what."

"She has a completely different personality from Erbao. When Erbao is playing outside, as long as there are people around, she won't want to go home."

Gu Jiu saw Dabao turning his little head to look around as soon as he got home, and said with a smile: "This child is very smart and shrewd. His personality should be more stable than Erbao's."

He took Dabao from Liu Xiaoe'e's arms and held one in each hand.

Dabao twisted his body and inadvertently met Gu Jiu's fatherly eyes. He turned his head away and looked upstairs.

Gu Jiu asked gently: "Dabao, are you missing your mother?"

Liu Xiao'e sat on the sofa and rested for a while. After listening to Gu Jiu's words, she glanced at the second floor and asked, "The youngest one is back?"

"Yeah, I just came back a little while ago, and I'm taking a shower upstairs."

Gu Jiu answered while observing Dabao.

Sure enough, when he heard that Lin Shu was back, Dabao turned his head and looked upstairs, with a worried look on his face.

Dazzled!

When Gu Jiu wanted to take a closer look, Dabao was already pointing upstairs, shouting, "Mama..."

The pronunciation is not standard, it sounds like calling mother, but also seems to be called out casually and unconsciously.

Gu Jiu smiled at Liu Xiao'e and said, "Dabao must be missing his mother. Mom, please sit down and rest for a while. I will carry them upstairs and let them kiss their mother."

Liu Xiao'e was eager to do so. After taking care of the child for the whole afternoon, she was already tired.

She carried the children upstairs so she could take a rest.

"Go ahead, go ahead. I'll drink some water and rest for a while."

Lin Shu had just finished taking a shower and was drying her hair when she heard the door open. She turned around and was met with three pairs of large eyes.

Especially the second baby, he was dancing with excitement, and it was almost written on his face that he wanted to drink milk.

The father and son's expressions calmed down a little, staring at her without blinking, at least they didn't act so anxiously.

Lin Shu put down the towel, took over the dancing Erbao, and gently pinched her little nose, "Why are girls so anxious to eat? You should be more reserved."

Erbao didn't know what modesty was. As soon as he entered Lin Shu's arms that smelled of milk, he threw himself into Lin Shu's chest, nodding his head on it like a pig looking for food.

Gu Jiu put Dabao in the crib and let him play by himself. He took a towel and wrung Lin Shu's hair dry.

After the second baby was full, Lin Shu squeezed out half a bottle of milk and fed it to the first baby.

"Look how strong your sister is. Formula milk is not as nutritious as breast milk. I won't force you if you don't want to drink it, but if I squeeze out the milk and put it in a bottle, you can drink it, right?"

Lin Shu was breastfeeding while discussing with Dabao.

Gu Jiu didn't think much about it and just treated it as her talking to herself.

But Lin Shu knew that Dabao understood what she meant. She wanted him to compromise and drink some breast milk occasionally every day.

While Gu Jiu was patting the second baby's burp, he came over to watch the first baby drink milk.

When he noticed Dabao's frown, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Other children are loyal to their mothers, but you refuse to drink milk. You are so picky about food, be careful that you will grow shorter than your sister in the future."

"Cough cough cough..."

These words were extremely hurtful. Dabao had been drinking the milk reluctantly at first, but now he was so scared that he choked on the milk.

The baby speaks in baby sounds, even his cough is in baby sounds.

Hearing the baby's rapid coughing sound, Lin Shu kicked the talkative Gu Jiu with heartache.

Gu Jiu jumped back two steps exaggeratedly, "Shushu, this kid was distracted and choked on his milk, you can't blame me, otherwise I would be so wronged."

Lin Shu glared at him: "Shut up! He's drinking milk, don't disturb him."

Gu Jiu looked at his daughter aggrievedly, but it turned out that his daughter wanted to sleep after eating and was yawning at this moment.

I had no choice but to hold my daughter in my arms and coax her to sleep with a wronged look on my face.

Lin Shu pretended not to see it, lowered her head and met Dabao's eyes like black grapes, "Don't mind your own business, drink your milk quickly."

Dabao hummed, lowered his eyelids and drank the milk seriously.

If you ignore his slightly frowned brows and see how seriously he drinks, you would really think the milk tastes great.

After drinking the milk, the eldest baby pointed with his little hand at Gu Jiu, who was coaxing the second baby to sleep, and shouted "Ba ba ba".

Lin Shu was speechless and helped him wipe the milk stains from the corners of his mouth. "Do you want daddy to hug you?"

"Babababa"

"You want your dad to put you to sleep?"

"Babababa"

Lin Shu pretended not to understand, "Okay, when Erbao falls asleep later, I'll ask your dad to give you a bath and then coax you to sleep."

Dabao sighed, worrying in vain.

Judging from Lin Shu's state, he should have thought it through.

Putting aside the bad fate in the previous life, Gu Jiu was very caring towards Lin Shu and was gentle and patient with the child.

He is also a good father and a good husband.

Of course, whether from the perspective of the child or from the perspective of his wife, Dabao does not want Lin Shu and Gu Jiu to separate.

In fact, this is a good ending for their family.

It is better to have the same father in two lives than different fathers.

After all, everything happens for a reason.

"Dabao, do you want daddy to help you take a bath?"

Gu Jiu coaxed the second baby to sleep, and when she heard the first baby's cry, she felt so happy that pink bubbles appeared on her face.

Lin Shu: "That should be the case. You know what Dabao likes most is you washing any part of his body. Hurry up and prepare the bath water."

"Okay." Gu Jiu also likes to give children a bath.
