Chapter 696: dig ginseng

"Back to the master, our people just followed up, but the subordinates guessed that they were barbarians."

The man in black is going to report so much, and now he just wants to get instructions on the next step, and then leave. Being a third party here is a bit stressful.

"Ok."

For a few breaths, Xiao Lingchuan was thinking about countermeasures. Don't be so anxious to save others, first look at old man He's countermeasures, and then talk about it.

The man in black nodded, and hurriedly dodged to leave, woo hoo, there are too many poisonous mosquitoes in the mountains, he was itchy all over, he was bitten several times, and he never wanted to come again!

Li Haitang slept for nearly two hours. She yawned and felt something rubbing against her face.

Feeling alert in his body, Li Haitang immediately opened his eyes, and saw a green hairy grass on his face, and one end was being held in the hands of his savage husband.

"My lady, don't go to sleep, wait until the sun is westward and the mountain will be cool, and then you will catch the wind and cold."

There was a hidden smile in Xiao Lingchuan's eyes, which was concealed by him. He coughed lightly twice, and patted Li Haitang's shoulder with his hand.

He stayed in one position for too long, and his sleeping position was stiff. Li Haitang moved his neck, and at the same time saw the circles left by the water stains on Xiao Lingchuan's chest, and hurriedly covered his mouth with his hands, with a guilty expression on his face.

The couple stood up and walked down the mountain together. At an inconspicuous place, Li Haitang found the familiar leaves.

"Husband, look, it's ginseng!"

Li Haitang regained his spirits immediately. Judging from this careless person, he should be quite old.

In the back mountain of Majia Village, wolf roars are often heard at night, and because of this, hunters dare not go into the deep mountains, and only hunt some wild game in shallow forests for money.

The place where the couple lived was deep in the mountains and old forests, with luxuriant branches and leaves, and there was no place to stay.

When Xiao Lingchuan saw the ginseng, he drew a square frame around the ginseng on the ground, and then tied branches in the four corners of the southeast, north, and east.

"Husband, what are you doing?"

After a series of movements, Li Haitang was dizzy. She studied western medicine in modern times and knew very little about ginseng. Apart from its efficacy, she didn't know how to dig ginseng.

According to folklore, ginseng will become a spirit and can move in place, so before digging ginseng, the herb collectors have to bring offerings to pay homage to the mountain god.

Right now, there are no sacrifices, so Xiao Lingchuan blocked the surroundings to prevent the ginseng from running away.

He took out a dagger from his arms and carefully loosened the surrounding soil. Li Haitang thought it would take a long time to dig ginseng, but the wild man was so simple and rude, he directly made a hole around and wrapped a huge ginseng. Ginseng's earthy clods are taken away.

"Old ginseng has a lot of beards. If it is damaged a little, it will damage its appearance. You have to go down the mountain and slowly remove the surrounding soil."

Xiao Lingchuan talked about some basic knowledge, some of which Li Haitang knew, but some she had never heard of. On the way down the mountain, she listened with great interest.

Back at Ma's house, only Ma Bihe was busy back and forth. She was wearing a long cotton dress and was packing firewood under the eaves.

The eldest lady of the Ma family, who used to wear gold and silver, did these jobs without any sense of disobedience.

Ma Bihe wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, and said with a smile, "Haitang, are you back?"

"Well, how about uncle and aunt?"

Regarding what Master Ma said, she and Xiao Lingchuan did not fully believe it. Instead, they secretly asked people to investigate according to the clues he gave, but they have not received a reply yet.

"Oh, what else can I do?"

Mentioning this, Ma Bihe was still very depressed. Her mother couldn't bear to think about it after praying to Buddha, and now she was sick in bed again.

After knowing the true face of the He family, she was also shocked to the point of unacceptable, because the truth is always unexpectedly cruel.

The nanny can't stay anymore, and it's almost impossible to count on the nanny to help, so she temporarily detains him.

As for Hong Xing and the woman, Ma Bihe helped them both find their own homes.

"Papa papa!"

At the door, there was an earth-shattering knock on the door, which made Ma Bihe's expression shudder. Could it be that Xiao Zhou's smashing was not enjoyable enough, and he came to the door again?

What a deception!

Ma Bihe rushed to the door with a hatchet in his hand, and opened it vigorously.

The person standing outside the door did not expect the other party to open the door easily, tripped over the threshold, leaned forward, and almost ran towards Ma Bihe's knife.

"Boom!"

Ma Bihe threw down the hatchet, and seeing that she didn't recognize anyone at the door, she couldn't help asking, "Who are you looking for?"

"You are, Miss Ma?"

Standing at the door was a tall girl, taller than Wu Fu, with a swollen face and a dark complexion. When she saw Ma Bihe, she first sized her up and saw that his clothes were not much different from that of a country girl. Thinking of what her parents said, the Ma family had already He was defeated, and he couldn't help showing contempt.

"Your maid named Hongxing, let's find her! Let that **** who seduced my brother Dongzi come out!"

The person who came was the butcher's daughter. Early this morning, Dongzi went to her house to withdraw the engagement. She pestered her for a long time. It turned out that the **** hooked up with her fiancé-in-law, and the two had already had a relationship!

She was so angry that she decided to come to her door!

The butcher girl was rude, but Li Haitang couldn't bear any resentment. The orders of the parents, the words of the matchmaker, and the marriage contract between Dongzi and the butcher's daughter should be obeyed.

I didn't wipe my **** clean, but hooked up with the little maid outside, and the two had an affair without a name, it was really unreasonable.

Now, the real fiancee of the family comes to the door, there is nothing wrong with it, it makes sense.

Ma Bihe obviously thought the same way. When she was dealing with this matter, Dongzi repeatedly stated that he would definitely make it clear to his parents, and then he would divorce the engagement and compensate the butcher's daughter for the loss.

Dongzi's love is sincere, and she will not marry unless she is a red apricot. As the host, what can she say?

She decided to give Hongxing's contract of selling her life directly. Therefore, Hongxing is not her maid now, but only temporarily borrowed.

The butcher's daughter didn't listen to this. She was going to get married next month, and she had already notified the folks in the village. No one in the village knew that she and Dongzi had been engaged since childhood. Yes, he said he couldn't marry her, what is this called?

"My parents prepared a dowry for me early on. Although I am not good-looking, I have always regarded Dongzi's parents as my future parents-in-law over the years, and I have not lost my filial piety."

The butcher's daughter wiped her tears. After being divorced, she lost her reputation. With her appearance, it was extremely difficult to find someone.

Furthermore, after so many years of investment, it was in vain, so I have to give an explanation.

Hongxing is a maid who sleeps with Dongzi. Both of them are shameless. Why should she save face for a dog and a man? Is the cheater justified?

Ma Bihe's eyes widened, and she didn't speak for a long time. She didn't expect that she would be persuaded by the other party. Leaving aside who is mainly responsible for the matter, what Dongzi and Hongxing did must be wrong.
