Escape from famine: Daddy stands up, Dali girl lies down

"Shh~Shh~", the sound of footsteps rubbing against weeds was getting closer and closer.

The four siblings huddled together with their butts sticking out, digging the soil like groundhogs.

The flying mud covered his head and body, and he cried out from time to time.

"Ouch, it's broken!"

"Oh, my second brother is an idiot."

"You can do it."

"Look at me."

The little heads pressed together chattered non-stop, making the listener's heart tremble.

"Stop, stop, stop, my dears, grandpa is coming."

Wu Yidao lowered his voice and spoke with unprecedented gentleness.

I was afraid that if the noise was too loud, the ginseng would be wasted in the hands of my grandchildren.

"Dad, it's really ginseng. The kids are so lucky."

When Lin Erzhuang saw the red fruit, he recognized it at a glance, and the excitement in his tone was unprecedented.

He collected ginseng twice while hunting, but didn't get a penny.

It's just a joke.

Now, my daughter found one, what luck she is.

Lin Erzhuang quickly glanced at the scene, knowing that he had doubts but not saying anything.

Fortunately, it was him and his father-in-law who came, otherwise it would be difficult to cover up the lie.

Baozi's appearance was completely ignored by the two of them.

At this moment, the two of them only had eyes for the ginseng under the red fruit.

Ginseng represents a life-saving miracle drug and a lot of money, who wouldn’t love it?

...

"Shu'er, get out of here!"

Wu Chunhua pointed at the mud on Lin Shu's head and covered her mouth with her hands while laughing.

"Cousin, I wanted to catch a wild rabbit for you to taste, but the rabbit led me astray.

Look, I found a dog, so cute! "

Lin Shu spread out her hands helplessly, with mud and grass mixed in her palms.

She also did not forget to show off her magical dog, Baozi, to everyone.

"Hahaha, how can two legs outrun four legs.

Cousin Shuer is so stupid!

This dog can't be a wild dog, be careful it might bite your butt." Wu Chunliu laughed so hard that her body shook.

"Hey, hey, I'm only biting your butt, so be careful!"

Lin Shu glanced at her second cousin, what a heartless girl, she wasn't afraid of being pulled by her aunt by the ears.

[Bah, who likes to bite butts? It stinks!]

Baozi bared his teeth and threatened, scaring Wu Chunliu so much that he took two steps back.

"Shu'er, why don't you come back and wash up?" Wu said unhappily.

Seeing the four clay dolls coming back, Mrs. Wu felt overwhelmed.

Fortunately there is a stream flowing ahead, otherwise I would have to dry clean it.

The attentive Mrs. Wu asked her eldest son to use a torn bed sheet to circle a bathing area.

He scolded Lin Shu and went in, stripped her naked and rubbed her.

He only stopped after he brought out two buckets of turbid water.

...

"We've found a good place, let's go." Wu Yidao came back with big strides.

"Let's go, move to the woods, and then get dried in the sun and become a dried human being." Wu Youyin said exaggeratedly.

Led by Wu Yidao, a group of people moved into the woods to rest.

The open space in front of them was the ginseng field they had cleared.

Lin Shu glanced at her smiling grandfather and directed her uncle and brothers to set up the tent.

Two large tents were soon set up in the woods, with a row of weeds serving as a natural bed.

The two families just fit into two tents, so Wu Daming and Wu Xiaoming's families had to build simple shacks by themselves.

When the four families get together, the happiest people are the children.

Because you are not allowed to make a fire or talk loudly during the day.

The boys gathered together to explore the woods, while the girls sat in a group with needles and thread, sewing clothes or shoes and socks.

They whispered a few words from time to time, and their pretty faces blushed.

Lin Shu was lying on the straw mat with her legs crossed, a piece of weed in her mouth, and her left hand stroking the fur of the bun.

With his eyes half closed, his mind had actually entered the space.

A pile of furniture collected from the Wu family was piled up in the open space along with weeds and dead trees and could only be burned as firewood.

The ginseng unearthed ranged in age from 100 to 50 or 6 years old, with a total of 25 plants of various sizes.

She carefully planted it behind the house and looked at the growing team with a smile on her lips.

...

"This child must have dreamed of something happy. He was smiling even when he fell asleep."

Wu Yidao strode over and saw his daughter sewing a fur coat in such hot weather that she was sweating profusely.

Although I felt a little distressed, I didn't say anything to stop it.

After all, a married daughter has her own family, and she has to take care of many household chores.

Only if she can stand up for herself can the family live a good life.

"Grandpa, sit down!"

Lin Shu got up and leaned against the tent holding the bun.

"Hahaha, I really benefited from Shu'er today."

Suppressed laughter rolled in Wu Yidao's throat.

Weird and scary.

"Shu'er, see how to divide it."

Wu Yidao took out six ginsengs hidden in his arms, some of which were forty years old, and some were more than ten years old.

"Grandpa, you are the boss here, so of course I have to listen to you."

Lin Shu raised her thumb and little finger and said with a smile.

"Follow grandpa, as long as there is food and meat to eat, that's all.

I’m not picky!”

"Ha ha ha, our Shu'er is not picky."

Wu Yidao's face trembled with laughter, and he really wanted Lin Shu to take the surname Wu.

This is a lucky doll!

Wu Yidao, who got the distribution rights, continued to whisper with Lin Shu for a while.

The main purpose was to analyze the personalities of the other two families for her, so that she would have an idea when encountering problems.

In the end, the Lin and Wu families each got two ginsengs that were thirty to forty years old, and Wu Daming and Wu Xiaoming each got a ten-year-old ginseng.

The two brothers, who did not participate in any labor, were extremely grateful to Wu Yidao and Lin Erzhuang.

Having a life-saving medicine in hand while fleeing from famine made the two brothers of course grateful, and it also made them more determined to follow.

The two brothers had no way to repay him, so they took out the best flour in their homes and gave it to him.

...

"Moo~Moo~Hmm~"

A hairy head came into the tent groaning and complained to Lin Shu.

Lin Shu rubbed her head which was experiencing some tinnitus, and got up to add more ingredients without complaint.

Green grass, corn kernels, soybeans, and half a bucket of water.

The hairy head nudged Lin Shu affectionately, then buried its head and started eating. The only sound that could be heard in the tent was the guy's chewing.

After licking the last drop of water, Maotou stared at Lin Shu with wet eyes and licked in circles with his tongue.

"If you don't leave now, you'll be discovered and the iron pot will be used to stew the meat."

Lin Shu slapped the mule's head rudely, and found her hands were covered in dust, and said with disgust.

"Let someone take you to take a shower. That should be ok now!"

"Moo~moo~"

The mule brayed happily twice, then shrank its head without anyone urging it to go look for the bath attendant.

"You are the only one who treats the livestock at home so well. Each one of them is so human-like. I don't know why." Mrs. Wu scolded without even raising her head.

"Because I am Shu'er!

Right, Baozi!" Lin Shu and the half-grown dog leaned their heads against each other.

"Wang Wang!"

Baozi nodded in agreement. When the owner picked it up, he didn't dislike it at all and always treated it like a child.

That feeling is so happy, so happy!

"Yes, you are our precious daughter."

When Mrs. Wu thought of the past, her eyes became red again.

After finishing sewing this small fur coat, I have to work on sewing the hat, gloves, scarf and jacket.

Anyway, everything my daughter wants has to be sewn before winter, so she won’t be left without winter clothes.
