Chapter 92: Digging Ginger, She Was Beaten by a Monkey

Seeing that his cousin was still carrying her big bag, Jiang Yang gestured for her to take it off.

After taking the backpack, he felt its heaviness and said in surprise.

"Aren't you tired carrying such a big bag? What's in it? Why is it so heavy?"

Jiang Miaomiao was eating roast duck when she heard her mumble:

“Clothes and toiletries, mmm, yummy.

And, um, there are some flowers and plants!

There are too many to remember, so you can see for yourself.”

Looking at his cousin working hard, Jiang Yang shook his head helplessly.

She actually stuffed flowers and plants in her bag. Just like when she was a child, she always liked to pick some flowers and plants from the wild and then plant them in her own yard.

Open the backpack and you will see that the black plastic bag on the top is probably filled with clothes.

Secondly, toiletries packed in white plastic bags.

Jiang Yang discovered that these two plastic bags only took up less than 20% of the space in his backpack.

The remaining space is filled with my cousin's miscellaneous stuff.

Candies, snacks, unknown flowers and plants...some

Two palm-sized stream stones. Well, I have to say, these two things are quite heavy. No wonder the backpack is so heavy.

Jiang Yang didn't understand what his cousin was doing with these two things, so he put the two stones aside.

A small black plastic bag, firm to the touch but not heavy.

When he opened it, Jiang Yang was speechless. It turned out to be ginger.

When he took it out, he found it was Zi Jiang.

Good stuff!

He knew that young ginger was different from ordinary ginger.

Ordinary ginger is crooked and if it is a little older, it will be full of fiber and can only be used as a condiment.

Even if the ginger is a little older, there is not much plant fiber in its rhizome.

Especially the tender ginger, when you take a bite, there is no obstruction, only the crisp sound in your mouth.

Jiang Yang took a look and found that the ginger in his hand weighed about one pound, as big as five fingers.

Although it was covered in mud, some clean areas could be seen, revealing the tender white ginger flesh.

It is easy to make a hole by pinching it with your fingernail without applying much force.

Jiang Yang nodded, barely still considered a young ginger.

He knew that young ginger could be used to make fried duck with ginger and sweet and sour ginger.

He decided to use half of it to make fried duck with ginger.

The other half is pickled into sweet and sour ginger in a small jar.

Now that all the stoves are running, I can only make sweet and sour ginger first.

Jiang Yang took the ginger and washed it in the sink. Then he cut the finger-sized ginger into strips of uniform length.

He took a basin and put the ginger on the cutting board into it, just as he was about to sprinkle salt.

My cousin exclaimed.

"ah!……!

Brother, what are you doing? I'm going to take it back and plant it in a flowerpot!"

Jiang Miaomiao didn't even bother to eat the delicious roast duck, and quickly snatched the basin from Jiang Yang's hand.

Looking at the ginger being cut into pieces, Jiang Miaomiao immediately looked sad.

“I dug this from the wild!

In order to dig out this big piece of ginger, I was beaten by a monkey!

My hard work is gone.”

Suddenly, Jiang Yang became curious.

It was the first time he heard of such a bizarre thing as being beaten by a monkey while digging ginger.

"I thought you bought this piece of ginger at the market!

What the hell is going on? How can I dig up a piece of ginger and get beaten by a monkey?

Jiang Miaomiao spoke gloomily.

"I went on a trip a few days ago and went hiking in Qionglong Mountain.

When I reached the middle of the mountain, I found a monkey digging something in the forest floor.

“I was curious at the time, so I ran over to take a look.

But it was a monkey, and when it saw me approaching, it bared its teeth at me."

“I was frightened at the time and kicked out subconsciously.

I really didn't mean to do that. It was a completely subconscious reaction out of fear."

"But the monkey just happened to jump up and bumped into my toes. I only heard a squeaking sound, and I didn't know where the monkey was kicked to."

"I thought everything was fine, so I squatted down to see what treasure the monkey was digging for."

"I happened to have a small shovel on my backpack, so I dug for a long time at the spot where the monkey had been digging, and finally I dug out this big piece of ginger intact."

"But now you've made my ginger like this. Woohoo, I got beaten by the monkey for nothing."

Jiang Yang was a little confused, "You're hitting the monkey, right? How could the monkey be hitting you?

It's just trying to scare you so you don't get close to it, because it's afraid you might steal its things."

Jiang Miaomiao almost cried out loud when she thought of the miserable past.

"But just as I was about to put the ginger into my backpack, that monkey came over with several other monkeys to take revenge on me!"

"The biggest monkey not only tried to steal the ginger I just dug, but also tried to steal my bag."

"I was so angry at the time that I grabbed the big monkey and threw it over my shoulder."

"The other two monkeys tried to bite my legs, but luckily I dodged them and gave them two big slaps."

“I had indeed defeated the three monkeys, but they refused to give up. When I was going down the mountain, they hit me with fruits and branches from the tree.

The worst part was, they were urinating in the tree above me and making me stink.”

Jiang Yang tried hard to recall the sad things and tried hard not to let the corners of his mouth rise.

He could see that Sun Yuankui and Zhao Yong, who were a little closer, were shaking their shoulders frantically.
