Chapter 63 Farewell
Seeing the young man go straight down to the ground to pick up the freshly dug kudzu root and examine it carefully, Zhang Beibei's eyes fell on his back, almost burning a hole.
This man had really fair skin and handsome features, completely different from her cousin who sweated in the dirt all day long.
Zhenzhen really suits her aesthetic taste in every aspect.
Zhang Beibei moved forward lightly, preparing to get closer to the person.
But who knew that the boy would just lift his foot and head towards the large field of kudzu roots above.
As he climbed up the slope, what came into view was a field of lush green kudzu vines. The surrounding weeds and vines had been cut away. Seeing these oblong leaves, Yang Liansheng's eyes flashed with surprise.
He reached out and picked up a leaf. The top was pointed and the petiole had yellow hairs. It looked very much like the leaf that Yang Aiguo used to wrap the pheasant, but he couldn't be sure at the moment.
You'll have to go back and see for yourself.
The young man stretched out his slender fingers and dug down along the vine. Sure enough, there was a long piece of block-shaped fruit underneath.
Yang Liansheng's heart was pounding. Looking at the large area of kudzu vines, he was afraid that most of the people in Majia Village would not starve.
If this grain came from their village...
The young man's eyes suddenly lit up.
A clear female voice suddenly rang out from the side.
"The ones on top are not ripe yet, don't dig them out!!"
Yang Liansheng turned his head and saw a pleasant-looking little girl staring at him with bright eyes.
Shao Ge felt a little embarrassed.
"Sorry, I'll just take a look." After saying that, he retreated quickly without seeing the regretful expression on the little girl's face.
On the way back home, Shaoqi couldn't suppress the smile on his face.
Lu Xiangnan couldn't help but ask, "Liansheng boy, what are you laughing about here?"
Shao Ge touched his nose.
Then he asked curiously.
"Grandpa Lu, do kudzu vines usually grow in patches?"
The old man gave him a meaningful look and said, "Most of them."
The young master finally explained his intention. "I wasn't sure at first, but now I know I've seen these kudzu leaves before! They come from our village!"
Lu Xiangnan was sincerely happy for him.
"This thing is comparable to a sweet potato. It's a gift from nature. With it, you won't go hungry easily."
There was a hint of difficulty on Shao Yu's face.
"It's just that the place is far away, and I'm afraid no one is willing to dig it."
"Why? They have food but they are not willing to dig for it. The people in your village are so lazy."
"No, there are too many reasons and it's impossible to explain..." Thinking of this, Shao Ge felt overwhelmed.
It would be extremely difficult to mobilize the people of Yangjia Village to go to Yezi Mountain to dig kudzu root.
What's more, he couldn't be sure whether this thing still existed in the mountains.
After all, it was two days ago that he and Yang Aiguo entered the mountain.
"Listen to me, Liansheng. In the face of life and death, all major issues are nothing. As long as you can find this thing, it will be a blessing for you!"
Shao Ge's eyes flashed.
I secretly made up my mind that this time I would go into the mountains to find out the truth.
…
Zhang Beibei was absentmindedly swallowing the porridge made from Pueraria root at home. Fang Meilan couldn't help but knock on the bowl when she saw that her little daughter looked like she was in a trance.
"Beibei, what's wrong?"
"Mom! I want to tell you something, but you can't scold me!" Zhang Beibei said with determination.
Fang Meilan casually picked up the pickles with chopsticks and stuffed them into her mouth, and hummed when she heard that.
"I have someone I like!"
"What?" Fang Meilan nearly dropped her chopsticks. Her brows furrowed as she earnestly advised, "Beibei, even though Mom doesn't advocate settling you two sisters down sooner, it doesn't mean anything else! Stay out of trouble!"
Seeing that her daughter didn't respond, she was silent for a while before speaking.
"Who is it?"
"He's Mr. Lu's student, Yang Liansheng!"
Fang Meilan's eyebrows twitched violently.
"Which teacher Lu?"
Zhang Beibei looked at her old relative in bewilderment. "Who else could it be, Mr. Lu Xiangnan?"
The woman's eyes went dark when she heard that. She could guess who her daughter was talking about with just her toes. She was indeed a woman, her eyes on people were so consistent.
