The arrogant little husband is desperately flirting with the hunter

Chu Xiao who was in the mountains naturally didn't know about the romantic affair between Zhang Yiju and Chu Wanwan.

He had followed Yan Zhenshen on hunting trips twice in a row, but Yan Zhenshen didn't dare to go to places where wild animals were present without him, even though he had repeatedly assured himself that he had the ability to protect himself.

So he didn't plan to follow Yan Zhenshen that day. He wanted to find some herbs and cultivate the land around the yard to plant some vegetables and herbs. Otherwise, he would delay Brother Shen's hunting and would never be able to earn any money.

Even so, Yan Zhenshen was still very worried. Before leaving the house, he kept reminding them not to run around, to stay nearby, not to go west or north, and to mark the roads they walked on, as the mountains were covered with dense trees and it was easy to get lost.

In the end, he kept Taxue and let him stay with Chu Xiao.

I remind you again and again, please protect yourself.

No matter what Yan Zhenshen said, Chu Xiao just nodded.

After finally sending the man out of the door, Chu Xiao breathed a sigh of relief. This guy's identity was really harmful to people. It was obvious that he was not afraid of wild beasts at all, but everyone was not confident in him.

Chu Xiao was not in a hurry to go out. In the past two days, both of them went out early and came back late. He first tidied up the yard and washed and hung the clothes. Then he closed the fence gate and continued to walk east along the river.

He wanted to explore the mountain.

He continued forward in the direction where he had picked mushrooms last time, and it was uphill all the way. After half an hour, he finally reached the top of the mountain, and when he looked down, he still saw dense trees.

But the trees here seem to be thicker and stronger, so they must be quite old.

He began to walk down slowly, not caring how far he walked. Anyway, he obediently marked the places along the way so he would not get lost.

While walking and searching, he did come across some herbs, but he couldn't tell how much they were worth. They were all in Chu Xiaoxiao's memory, and Chu Xiaoxiao just knew about them but had never sold them.

As for the fact that he was not familiar with the herbs in this place, the only ones he knew were the more precious ones such as ginseng, angelica, gastrodia elata and Polygonum multiflorum, and that was because he was responsible for planting these at the base.

However, we did find two large wolfberry trees and a chestnut tree on the way, but they are not mature yet, so we can wait until autumn to harvest them all.

When the sun was almost at its zenith, he saw a crack in the valley ahead. A gust of cool breeze blew past, dispelling some of the heat.

Chu Xiao decided to take a break here for a while. He took out the steamed buns that Yan Zhenshen had made last night from the space and had them with pickles for lunch. The white flour buns had a hint of sweetness and were much more delicious than the black flour ones, and did not make his throat sore at all.

He ate one and gave two to Taxue. Then the man and the dog lay down on a big rock, one beside the other, taking a nap in the breeze.

After dozing for a while, the man who had no harvest decided to pick some wild vegetables and go home, and try in a different direction tomorrow. However, when he turned around, he found a patch of plants that he was very familiar with growing in the valley.

The light purple stem has sparse white hairs, and the white flowers look like insect eggs.

Chu Xiao couldn't suppress the smile on his face. There was actually such a large piece of angelica. If he could dig it all out, he would be rich.

He took out a small hoe and dug a little bit at a time. The rhizome of angelica was very uneven and had side roots. If it was dug out, it would not be easy to sell. What's more, he planned to grow more of them, so he wouldn't have to go into the mountains to look for them in the future, and it would be a steady source of money.

Chu Xiao dug carefully and it took him more than an hour to dig up most of the angelica. Of course, he would not dig up all of it, but leave some for them to reproduce on their own.

He didn't know how much money he could get after cultivating it for a while and taking it to the clinic. He naturally knew that this thing could not compare to ginseng. After all, he had seen angelica sinensis from Doctor Hu, and it was even in the medicine bag he prescribed for himself.

But ginseng is hard to come by, and it also depends on the year. But angelica is different. It can be sold when it is ripe and does not require too much mental energy to cultivate.

He used a few large leaves to fill some soil and wrapped the roots of the plants in the soil, so that even if they were planted in another place, the plants would adapt as quickly as possible.

When Chu Xiao was digging herbs just now, Taxue did not approach him, but kept a close watch on his surroundings. Now, seeing him digging in the open space, he walked over, tentatively dug with his claws, and seeing that Chu Xiao did not object, he started digging with him.

The man and the dog quickly wrapped the angelica with mud. Chu Xiao put it into the space, looked at the sun, and decided to go back.

There was a lot of dirt on Taxue's body. He fluttered his fur and splashed it all over Chu Xiao. Chu Xiao quickly closed his eyes to prevent himself from being blinded by the dust.

After they had enough fun stepping on the snow, he patted its head with a smile and said, "I'll take you to take a bath later."

Taxue didn't know whether he understood or not, and barked twice.

When he walked here, he didn't feel that he had walked very far, but when he walked back, it felt like the road ahead had no end. The sun was already setting when he finally walked back to the thatched hut.

I went to the river first, took Taxue to wash up, and then pushed open the gate of the yard. The yard was very quiet, proving that Brother Shen had not come back.

Chu Xiao had only eaten one steamed bun at noon. He was so hungry that his stomach was rumbling.

Walking in the snow and drying his fur in the yard in the afterglow of the sun, Chu Xiao went into the kitchen, washed the rice and steamed it, and took out the wild vegetables he had dug a few days ago. He knew very few dishes and didn't dare to innovate, so he still planned to make scrambled eggs and a plate of wild vegetables.

While waiting, he remembered that there seemed to be several cookbooks in the space. He couldn't be innovative but he could just copy others.

He quickly used his consciousness to search through the space, and actually found four or five cookbooks. Three of them were home cooking, and many dishes were even repeated. One of them was about snacks, and you could learn how to make them. There were candied haws, French fries, egg tarts, and sausages in the books, which were all small snacks, but Chu Xiao had never eaten them before.

There is also a book on dietary treatment for all diseases, which is also a book on medicated diet. It contains porridge, stews and soups made with various Chinese medicines, which can cure diseases and strengthen the body when healthy.

He felt that the information in this book was very suitable for him. Although he had tried to improve himself with his mental power, this physical weakness was not just due to illness, but was caused by years of deficiency. What he needed was nutritional supplements.

What's more, the production method is very simple, and it is still possible for a novice like him to do it.

As I was flipping through the pages, I saw a chicken soup with angelica, codonopsis and red dates, which is said to replenish qi, replenish deficiency, nourish blood and strengthen the spleen. It didn't have codonopsis, but it had everything else.

So making this tonight.

He picked out the largest angelica from the space, washed it, cut off a small piece, soaked the red dates in water, and then went to the woodshed to look at the pheasants that Brother Shen had caught in the past two days.

They cooed when they saw people. He watched for a long time before he caught one with a damaged wing. He killed the chicken and plucked its feathers. It was not a smooth job, but it was considered a success.

Chop the chicken into pieces, rinse it with hot water, and then put it into the pot together with angelica and red dates. When the fire is boiled over high heat, he takes out the extra firewood from the stove. This time he knows that the soup needs to be simmered over low heat.
