Chapter 446 446, Vitality

Qin Tianru was not noticed by anyone in the village during the two days she was out. After all, she herself has always been at home and doesn't like to drop by.

So, even if they haven't seen her for two days, the villagers don't feel anything.

The day after Qin Tianru returned home, he followed Qi Qing up the mountain with a basket and deliberately showed his face in front of people.

In the midsummer season, the sun came out early, and the two sisters and sisters wore straw hats and walked up the mountain slowly.

"Hey, sister-in-law, have you noticed that there seem to be a lot of wild vegetables growing in this mountain?"

Qi Qing looked around carefully, and indeed found that fresh and tender wild vegetables were growing in several places, which surprised her a little.

After all, when they went up the mountain some time ago, many places were pulled bare. It's only been so long, and so many wild vegetables have grown.

Qin Tianru smiled knowingly, "What's so strange about this, have you ever heard the ancient poem 'The wildfire can't burn out, the spring breeze blows again', this natural creature is inherently tenacious, as long as there is a little bit of vitality in the soil, They can break through the ground with tenacity.”

"Well, it makes sense, I was just a little surprised, I didn't expect it to grow so quickly." Qi Qing was quite touched.

Qin Tian smiled, "Maybe God can't stand it anymore. He wants to leave a ray of life for the suffering ordinary people, but no matter what, this is also a good thing, let's just follow the picking."

"Sister-in-law is right." Qi Qing grinned instantly, feeling that she had nothing to think about too much.

Sure enough, along the way, the aunt and sister-in-law met several waves of teams picking wild vegetables. Obviously, everyone knew that there were a lot of wild vegetables growing in the mountains and came to pick them specially.

Everyone had a smile on their face, everyone was talking and laughing, watching it was very lively and cheerful, and the melancholy between their eyebrows and eyes became lighter.

Aunt and sister-in-law did not go to a crowded place, but took a different route.

Qi Qing didn't have any objections throughout the whole process, and followed her sister-in-law directly and docilely. Gradually, the two of them stayed away from other wild vegetable picking teams in the village.

"What are you looking at?"

Qin Tianru saw that Qi Qing kept looking around, as if he was looking for something, and couldn't help but find it interesting.

Qi Qing whispered, "I'm looking to see if there are any pheasants or hares around here."

After all, she followed her sister-in-law into the mountains, and nine times out of ten, she would encounter wild animals. Now that they are all getting closer to the edge of the deep mountains, it is estimated that wild animals should be brought up.

Hearing the words, Qin Tianru couldn't help laughing, and dared to think like this.

She sees, 80% of the time, Xiaoqing is greedy. The rabbits that were raised in the backyard were kept for breeding, and they were pregnant with cubs a few days ago, so they must not be eaten.

And the meat that the family ate during this time came from the pheasants that were kept in captivity before, and occasionally the pork brought back by the father from the commune, but it was only a slender piece of meat, at most half a catty.

This is all because my father works in the commune. With this convenience, I can say hello to the pig slaughtering farm, but pork is in short supply and I cannot have it every day.

However, the Qi family didn't plan to eat meat every day. Who makes today's environment special? If their family eats meat every day, the look on their faces can't be concealed.

After all, everyone in the village has a sallow complexion, and their cheeks are thin. This is what they should look like because they have not eaten well for a long time. It is not like their family. Mother and Xiaoqing have become more rounded.

If you don’t consciously control your diet, it will be too different from the people in the village.

Therefore, during this time, their family only had a good meal every three or five years, but even so, it was much better than the life of the villagers.

Now the pheasants in the house have been eaten up several times, and there has been no meat and fish for several days.

"Then look carefully, I'm going to pick wild vegetables."

Qi Qing nodded and replied, "Well, I'm watching carefully."

So, Qin Tianru went to the wild vegetable field not far ahead, where a small piece of daylily grew.

This day lily is the best picking season in June, July and August every year. It is a 'treasure on the table' to puzzle the mind and calm the mind. It can be eaten or used as medicine, but it is best to eat it as a dry product. After soaking in boiling water, it can be Stir fry, make soup.

Because fresh daylily contains colchicine, which is toxic to a certain extent, it is easy to cause food poisoning if it is not cooked properly or eaten in large quantities.

On the other side, Qi Qing was still checking the situation, thinking about when the wild animals would be delivered to the door.

Qin Tianru picked half a basket of day lilies and continued to move to the next place. Since she learned her new skills, every time she went up the mountain, she would first find out the situation nearby, which would save a lot of unnecessary time and go straight. destination.

"Xiaoqing, go!"

"Oh, come on~"

Didn't see any wild animals, Qi Qing was very disappointed, but she quickly calmed down. Anyway, with her sister-in-law here, she wouldn't suffer anyhow.

A distance of two or three hundred meters, Qin Tianru came to the second place.

"Sister-in-law, what is this?"

Looking at a large field of purple flowers in front of her, Qi Qing turned her head and asked her sister-in-law.

Qin Tianru's eyes moved slightly, "It should be ginseng."

Frankly speaking, it was the first time she saw the flowering ginseng, and she was able to recognize it because of her abilities.

This ginseng is a commonly used health care medicinal material, and it is also a good health product for nourishing yin and clearing heat. In daily life, sun-dried ginseng is often used to make soup.

But fresh ginseng can also be steamed, eaten cold, or used to make porridge, just like yam.

But this discovery made Qin Tianru happy.

When I was having breakfast this morning, I heard that many people have started to run out of food, and now they rely on some vegetable leaves to cook soup.

June, for ordinary people, should be the most difficult month, because many crops only begin to mature after July.

Those that are harvested later will have to wait until October, and those that can be harvested in July are already harvested earlier.

However, in June, there is nothing, and can only rely on the food next to it as the main food.

I didn’t expect that I would get a harvest today when I went up the mountain. Although this ginseng cannot be eaten completely, it is at least a food to satisfy hunger.

"Is this flower edible?"

Seeing her sister-in-law staring at the purple flowers, Qi Qing naturally thought that these flowers were edible.

Qin Tianru squatted down and pulled a plant directly, only to see that the root under the flower stem was white and shaped like a carrot, but it was a little longer than a carrot.

"Only the root can be eaten."

"Huh? Is this slender tree stick edible?"

Qi Qing was slightly surprised, looking at her sister-in-law holding the ginseng in her hand, she felt that the root was not very tasty.
