With sparkling eyes, Xiao Li whispered something next to his elder brother's ear, then grinned and asked, "Brother, are we very good?"

Digging for herbs?

Qiu Sheng's handsome face was a bit worried, the younger siblings must have entered the forest at the foot of the mountain.

At this time, Wang Zhuangzhi's voice came.

"Ah, what are you carrying half a sack?"

"Father, this is the medicinal material that my younger brother and I dug up. Jiaojiao said that this can be sold for money." Erya's dark face was full of seriousness, and she believed in her heart that these would definitely be exchanged for silver taels.

Wang Zhuangzhi stepped forward to open it and saw that they were all wooden roots. He shook his head in disbelief and said with a smile: "The curbs are all these wooden roots. How can these things be sold for money?"

"That's not true, my younger sister said it's called Tianqi, and it's more valuable than ordinary medicinal materials. Tomorrow, if dad comes with us to the town to buy it, it will definitely sell for silver." Erya said loudly with her hips on her hips.

Liu Zhihua put Guaibao to sleep, and when she heard the dispute between their father and daughter, she came out to look at the earthen roots covered in mud, and looked at Erya with a frown: "You little monkey, you led your younger siblings up the mountain, right? "

"Mother, no!" Er Ya hurriedly shook her head, then grabbed the hem of her clothes and said in a low voice, "Well, we just walked around the forest at the foot of the mountain."

Hearing that in the woods, Liu Zhihua was so angry that she raised her finger and pointed at her daughter and shouted: "Wang Erya! Before you go out, I have to remind you to ignore your words. There are poisonous snakes and insects infesting in that place. You have eaten bear's heart and leopard gall!"

Erya shrank her neck, and explained in a low voice: "Mother, I carried my sister on my back when I went in and out, and my shoes were tied with straw mats. The few of us were not injured."

"You, you guys are so mad that I'll forget it!"

Liu Zhihua clutched her heart and became short of breath, obviously very angry.

Wang Zhuangzhi hurriedly stepped forward to comfort him, and then he looked at his daughter with a serious expression on his face and said, "Ah, the forest is too dangerous. Although there are no wild animals, snakes and scorpions are indispensable in the dense weeds. There are also beasts, so please listen to your mother and don't go there in the future."

Erya's dark face drooped, her bright eyes turned around cleverly, seeing her parents' stern appearance, she hurriedly nodded obediently and said, "Well, I won't go, I must make it clear to my parents next time I go out."

But in my heart I don't think so, if the herbal medicine can really make money, I will definitely go next time, and then let my father go with him, and ask my father to shoot him to death when he encounters a wild beast.

Seeing this, Qiu Sheng also began to persuade: "Father and mother calm down, this is the end of the matter, the younger brothers and sisters are fine, Erya will definitely not dare to do it next time."

Liu Zhi was angry, but after all, it was all her heart and soul, and it was useless to talk about it after the matter was over. Seeing the disgraced children, she hurried to the kitchen to boil water again.

Although Wang Zhuangzhi didn't believe that these things could be sold for money, his daughter was very sure, so he took the half bag of Tian Qigen to the yard, poured it all out and hung it on the ground, otherwise it would be ruined all night long.

After all the tossing and turning, it was getting late when it was time for dinner. Jiaojiao fell asleep and was fed a bowl of porridge by her mother. She felt that her mother was wiping her face with a kerchief, and she called out softly, "Mother~ ", then fell asleep again.

Liu Zhihua caressed her daughter's beautiful hair, her eyebrows and eyes were distressed, but she never suspected anything else, she just thought it was her daughter who was tired from running all afternoon.

...

the next day,

Before dawn, Erya couldn't fall asleep, so she specially found a red head rope and tied two soaring shofar braids for herself, and happily ran to knock on the door and shouted to her parents to get up quickly.

"Mom and dad, hurry up, I'm going to town with you today!"

"You splashy monkey, be quiet, don't disturb Jiaojiao..."

Jiaojiao also heard her sister's voice. After a night of recovery, she was no longer tired.

Seeing that her parents were getting dressed and getting up, she also jumped out of the quilt, her arms were as cute as two white lotus roots, and she said in a waxy voice, "Mom~ I'm going to town too."

"Hey, beware of catching a cold. Lie down quickly. It's still early outside before dawn. After a while, mother will prepare breakfast. My baby won't be too late to wake up."

Saying that, Liu Zhihua tucked the quilt up for her daughter again, it's a little cold at this time, the baby is already delicate, if it catches the wind and cold, it will be troublesome.

Jiaojiao tilted her head and looked at the wooden window, but she couldn't see anything at all, she blinked her eyes a few times, and finally obediently hid herself under the quilt.

"Baby, sleep well, your parents are outside, don't be afraid." Wang Zhuangzhi coaxed with a smile.

Jiaojiao nodded: "Well, I'm not afraid."

"My Jiaojiao is so obedient..."

Watching her parents leave, Jiaojiao suddenly thought of the ganoderma she picked, she got out of the quilt, found the dress she wore yesterday, the ganoderma inside was gone, she frowned, and hurried to the room I found it.

Finally, I found out that my mother was put away on the wooden box, and it was not damaged, and the veil that was wrapped earlier was still on it.

Jiaojiao sneaked away to plant the ganoderma lucidum in the backyard.

...

It was getting brighter,

After breakfast, the whole family wanted to go to town with them, Erya and Xiaoli were excitedly waiting to sell money, while Qiusheng had finished copying books and went to the bookstore to hand over the books.

Jiaojiao had never been to the town, and she wanted to follow along with a curious look on her face.

If it was normal, Wang Zhuangzhi would have rushed there earlier, but now that there are four more little radish heads, Qiusheng and Jiaojiao are weak, so Liu Zhihua hurried to Grandma Qiu's house.

Grandma Qiu sells tofu in the town, and her family has an ox cart.

After discussing with Granny Qiu, they gave Granny Qiu's son another four copper coins, and they agreed to take their family to the town.

It is rare for a family of six to take a luxury ride in an ox cart, and Liu Zhihua feels sorry for the four copper coins. If she hadn't brought the children, she would be able to walk after a while at most when she was tired. How could she be willing to spend money on a ride.

Along the way, the son of Granny Qiu, who was driving ahead, didn't want to talk to the unlucky households in the village, while Granny Qiu liked Jiaojiao, and kept talking to people along the way.

"Jiaojiao looks so good, how about being a granddaughter-in-law of the Qiu family in the future?" Granny Qiu held Xiaojiaojiao's little hand and said in a voice audible to both of them.

Jiaojiao scratched her head. As a ginseng essence, she didn't quite understand what the daughter-in-law meant, so she tilted her head and asked her parents: "The mother-in-law said that she will be the daughter-in-law of the grandson, what does that mean?"

When the Wang family heard that it was okay, Liu Zhihua hurriedly hugged her daughter into her arms, and smiled at Granny Qiu, "Jiaojiao is still young, so don't say these things to scare her."

Wang Zhuangzhi looked displeased. The grandson of the Qiu family looked like a thin monkey. He was as big as Qiusheng and as tall as Jiaojiao.

Qiusheng was thirteen years old, and he could understand these words to some extent, so he was naturally unhappy, but Granny Qiu was an elder, so he couldn't say anything.

Granny Qiu smiled awkwardly, pretending to be relaxed and said: "Zhihua don't worry, I just said that casually."

She naturally knows what her grandson looks like, but although the fourth girl of the old Wang family is good-looking, she has heart disease, and she still wants to give more gifts to find a beautiful daughter-in-law for her grandson. , which made her a little bit embarrassed.
