Thanks for the invitation: In ancient times, people shared children

Chapter 319

There is a kind of reminder in this world called an indirect reminder, which means - it will not be told to you directly.

The children also realized belatedly that when these people mentioned that the cattle dealer's brother-in-law was the chief clerk of the yamen, the subtle pause and the slightly strange smile on their faces were reminders, but no one said it explicitly, and they also told them, "Hiring a car from their family is the cheapest."

They are also stupid, they only think about money.

On the way, they thought that even if there was anything, they would not provoke them or cause any trouble, so they could just hire a car normally and nothing would happen...

Ugh.

It’s unnecessary to think about this now.

The boy finished the little work that was left.

After buying some fried fish for Aunt Yu, she was about to go home. Sun Xiaowa really asked about the porridge and where she got the lotus root. Her mother liked it very much, so she wanted to get some too.

The child told her where the mud pond was.

Sun Xiaowa thought for a moment and said, "I know that place. It's quite remote. There's a lotus field there in the summer."

She was going to dig.

The child was also preparing to dig some more. Just now, she remembered that the lotus flowers grew in patches, and there were many dead leaves there, so there must be lotus roots underneath. She was in a hurry to come back and didn't dig any more. No wonder they couldn't make a fortune.

The child hurried back without explaining anything. He gave the fried fish to Aunt Yu and, relying on his fast running speed, went out to dig lotus roots with a basket on his back that day.

He also brought a soul flag to give himself courage.

Perhaps because of the snow, the water in the muddy pond seemed to have risen a little, but it still looked thin.

The child knew how annoying the mud under the dirty water was. If she stepped on it, she would sink straight down. She had no choice but to go down. She took off her shoes and socks, changed into a pair of relatively tight straw sandals, rolled up her pants and went down.

The water was very cold, and the dead branches and leaves were a bit scratchy, but fortunately the child had spiritual power and did not take the hardship seriously. He estimated that he had found the place where he dug lotus roots last time, and groped his way to the side along that piece.

This time it wasn't as smooth as the first time. It broke at the slightest provocation and didn't look anything special.

Occasionally there are one or two that seem to have some spiritual energy, but there are not many, and they are far inferior to the initial ones.

But the child was quite content. He filled the backpack, injected some spiritual energy into a lifeless and seemingly dead toad, stuffed it into his pouch, and then ran down.

I went back to ask Aunt Yu if I could make it into a dish and sell it together. She was talking about lotus root.

As for this toad, because it was so big, she, Little Wolf, and Qiu Xin all thought it was a monster. They took it back to try to save it, and if that didn't work, they would give it to Little Wolf to eat.

It has never been very satisfied with the child. It's bad enough that her cultivation is low, but she can't even eat meat with her. How hard is her life? Shouldn't the one in the past have given them some meat?

The child was speechless and could only say, "I'll take you to look for any dead toads or anything else later."

The little wolf howled but didn't speak human language, so she thought it was very satisfied, stopped it from talking, and went home happily.

Ever since she obtained Xishan, her ability to control the Soul Banner has become much stronger. In fact, she should go in and take a look again.

But the child was still a little afraid of the little wolf and the dead bamboo, so he never went in again.

Let's not think about it for now. The child hurried home after dark. As soon as he entered the yard, he said happily to the lighted house, "Auntie Yu, come and see, I dug up a lot of lotus roots!"

Aunt Yu limped out slowly, holding a lantern. She was also quite surprised, but her voice was very low: "There are still so many. Are these the same as yesterday's?"

"How is that possible?" the child said, pulling out two lotus roots that looked better and firmer than the others. "These two might be the same, but they're not as good as yesterday's. Their spiritual energy is very weak. I'll have to taste them to know for sure."

The child was afraid that Aunt Yu would disagree, but she didn't say anything. She just said, "Thank goodness you remembered. Otherwise, we would have missed this good thing right in front of us. My foot is much better now. I'll go with you tomorrow. Let's dig out all the lotus roots in the mud pond so that we don't leave any behind!"

"That's not a good idea, right? If we dig up all the mud pond, we'll be completely bald. Besides..." The child wanted to scratch his head, but then he put his hand down again, remembering the mud on his hand. "I told Sun Xiaowa where the mud pond is. She'll definitely go dig it up too."

"Ouch! I didn't tell you not to say that!"

"I didn't say it was a spiritual plant."

"..."

Aunt Yu could only sigh and instructed, "Next time, don't tell me where it was. Just say you can't remember."

After she finished speaking, she wanted to sigh again. Next time, how many next times can a person have in his life? It would be lucky for an ordinary person to encounter such a good thing once in his life.

Or maybe her daughter is blessed, different from ordinary people, maybe she will have some great fortune.

If Aunt Yu didn't think the world of aliens was too dangerous, she would have let the child go and explore it.

But now, she just hopes that her stall business will be prosperous.

With so many lotus roots, we can make lotus root powder and candied lotus root to sell. Fried lotus root with meat is also good, but there is a wine shop next to it. If the food is not delicious enough, I am afraid no one will be willing to squeeze into the small shed. Who would be willing to press the button when it is filled with the smell of oil smoke?

The sweet and fragrant taste is better.

Aunt Yu asked the children to put these in the kitchen first and clean them up tomorrow.

Save some of the special two sections to eat and plant the rest.

There was hot water in the big pot on the stove, so she could wash herself, take off her clothes and throw them aside for the time being, and pick them up later.

The child was in no hurry to do these things. She first went to take out the medical manual that Lian Li had given her. After searching for a long time, she couldn't find any information on how to treat toads. She only knew about golden toads, a kind of frog that loves to eat copper coins. Its body is golden and smooth like jade, its tongue is white, and its eyes are like obsidian. It smells like copper, and wherever it goes, there must be copper mines...

The child pulled out the toad she had picked up. It was huge and bumpy, with a yellow-green back, a whitish belly, a flesh-pink tongue, eyes that were hard to open, and a strong fishy smell. Wherever it went, it was covered in mud. Perhaps it liked to eat flies...

As for this book, let alone promoting it, she would never encounter many of the animals in it in her lifetime...

“It’s no use.”

The child spread the toad on the table and covered it with a white handkerchief: "May the best come to you."

If it’s still not alive, feed it to the little wolf.

The child moved the lotus roots to the kitchen. When he was planting the two special lotus roots, he found that the pot had been touched. He dug it out but found nothing inside.

Got robbed?

The child was just wondering when Aunt Yu said through the window, "Don't plant the lotus roots in the vat anymore. I asked someone today and they said that's not the way to do it."

Soak the lotus seeds.

Lotus roots do not require so much water, as the sprouts need to be flushed into the planting soil.

She was old and couldn't remember clearly. Anyway, don't put it in the tub yet. She found her big washtub and told us to use that first.

Move out during the day and move back in when it gets cold at night, otherwise she will be worried.

Wait until the back of the head grows back, and then move it back into the tank.

The child didn't understand this either, so he just did what she said, and even tried to inject a little spiritual power into it. The lotus seeds couldn't be seen, and the lotus roots... couldn't be seen either. Just put them in the soil, and you'll know after you see them grow...
