My daughter was sold, I want to divorce her and go back to my parents' home to escape the famin

"Qingyue, why are you back? Where is your sister?" Seeing that Lin Qingyue seemed to be struggling to carry the basket, Lin Qingming hurried over to take the basket off her back and asked.

"Brother, my sister is still in the mountains. She found some wild yam and asked me to come back and ask you to dig it up. She said we can probably dig out 600 to 700 kilograms. Grandma, this lump of earth is wild yam. She said you can eat it after washing it and steaming it."

Lin Qingyue poured out the contents of the basket as she spoke. Apart from a meal's worth of shepherd's purse, there was a wild yam weighing four or five pounds, and then six and a half-meter-long bamboos.

"Qingyue, why did you bring the bamboo down here?" Seeing the bamboos on the ground, Mrs. Lin asked in confusion.

"Qingyue, can this lump of earth really be eaten?" Li Yanniang went up the mountain and touched the wild yam, and asked curiously.

After hearing what Li Yanniang said, everyone else looked at Lin Qingyue eagerly. If it was really edible, then they wouldn't have to worry about food for the time being.

"You can eat it. My sister said the clinic will also collect wild yams. But my sister said that we should wait until my eldest brother and the others dig out the wild yams. Then she will come back and discuss whether to keep the wild yams for ourselves or sell them to the clinic."

Lin Qingyue shook her head and nodded. She didn't know the details. She just heard it from her sister, so her sister Lin Qingxue could only come back and ask her.

"Okay, Qingming's father, you two, take the eldest, second, and third sons and go with Qingyue to dig wild yams. Eldest son's wife, you guys, prepare these shepherd's purse and dry them in the sun, then pick up these lumps of earth. We'll save them for dinner."

Old Man Lin stood up and brushed off the dust on his body. He was old, so he didn't want to go to the mountain with the children and cause trouble for them. He would just stay at home with his wife and wait for the children to come back.

Just like my granddaughter said, it’s okay to keep the wild yam for yourself or sell it for money.

So, we have to dig it back quickly, otherwise what if someone else snatches it away?

At this time, Old Man Lin wished he were a few decades younger so that he could dig wild yams by himself and would not need to "beg" his grandchildren to do the work.

"Okay, Dad and Mom, we'll go first," said Uncle Lin, and he took his three sons to the kitchen to get tools such as baskets, shoulder poles, hemp ropes and sacks.

After Uncle Lin and his three companions took their tools, Lin Qingyue said something to Mrs. Lin and took them up the mountain to find Lin Qingxue.

On the other side, Lin Qingxue on the mountain took a rest and then continued to dig wild yam. However, she dug about ten wild yam vines, kept the big ones, and put the small ones into the space, planning to plant them again in the space at night.

Wild yam is a good thing. Whether you eat it as food or sell it for silver, it is a good thing.

When Lin Qingyue brought Uncle Lin and others to find Lin Qingxue, they saw her working hard to dig wild yam, and everyone felt a little sad.

"Qingxue, stop digging. Go and take a rest. Let your uncle and the other four do the hard work."

Aunt Lin walked over and looked at Lin Qingxue, and stopped her from working. Seeing the child sweating profusely, she felt so distressed.

"Okay, auntie and uncle, you are here," Lin Qingxue stopped, a little out of breath. She was really tired. She didn't feel it when she was working, but when she stopped, she felt like her whole body belonged to someone else.

"Look how tired you are. Sit down and take a rest," Aunt Lin said as she walked over to take a look at the wild yam that Lin Qingxue had dug out.

He said to Uncle Lin and the others, "His father, be careful when you dig, don't break anything. I saw that everything Qingxue dug out was intact."

"It's okay if the rotten ones are broken. The clinic only accepts the whole ones. You can keep the broken ones for eating. Sell some of these wild yams and keep some!"

Lin Qingxue sat down on the ground as she spoke. She really had no strength left.

"That's fine. How much does the clinic charge per pound of this?" Aunt Lin asked worriedly. If it's not worth selling it, she can just keep it for herself. A few hundred pounds can last for a long time.

"I'm not sure. The processed ones are more expensive. Ours should not be expensive just out of the ground. But the medicinal value of wild yam is very high. No matter how cheap it is, it won't be much cheaper."

Lin Qingxue shook her head. She didn't know it at first, but she learned about it when she was studying wilderness survival knowledge in the police academy.

While the two were chatting, Uncle Lin had already taken Lin Qingxue's three brothers to start digging.

Although they had never dug wild yams before, the four of them were used to doing farm work, so digging wild yams was a piece of cake for them.

Lin Qingxue rested for a while and was about to walk around with her axe. She had just forgotten to check if there were any wild vegetables nearby when she heard Lin Qingyue's voice.

"Sister, Auntie, there is some gray vegetables here." Lin Qingyue took advantage of the time when no one was paying attention to her and walked around and looked around. She saw a patch of gray vegetables about ten meters away from Uncle Lin and his family.

"Qingxue, you take a rest. I'll go and dig wild vegetables with Qingyue." Upon hearing that there were wild vegetables, Aunt Lin happily stood up and immediately walked towards Lin Qingyue.

Lin Qingxue nodded without saying anything. She looked around and saw no other wild vegetables except the piece of gray vegetables that Lin Qingyue had found.

Helplessly, Lin Qingxue returned to the previous place, sat on the ground to rest, and watched Uncle Lin and others digging wild yam.

Uncle Lin and his three companions worked quickly and effectively, and none of the wild yams they dug out were rotten. Lin Qingxue took a short break, then shook off the dirt on the wild yams dug out by Uncle Lin and his companions, and put them into the sacks they brought.

Uncle Lin and his three companions were working hard to dig wild yams. Even though their hands were numb from exhaustion, no one stopped to rest.

After Lin Qingxue put all the wild yams into a sack, she took the hoe brought by Aunt Lin and joined Uncle Lin and the others in digging wild yams.

After all the wild yams were dug out, it was already getting dark. Aunt Lin asked them to rest, and she helped Lin Qingyue pack the dug wild yams into bags.

"Let's go! Mother, take Qingxue and Qingyue and go ahead," Uncle Lin and the other three rested for a while and recovered some strength.

"Okay, we'll go ahead," Aunt Lin snatched the basket from Lin Qingxue's back and carried it herself, letting her come down empty-handed.

It’s not that she doesn’t feel sorry for Qingyue, but Qingxue has worked hard digging wild yams with her uncle and others.

As for Uncle Lin and the others, each of them carried a full basket of wild yam, and also carried a sack of wild yam. As for the carrying stick they brought, Lin Qingxue used it as a crutch.
