Ling Jinyue came to the Ling family the next morning, looking a little dejected.
When he didn't come back the previous evening, Meng Qidi guessed that he might have been caught.
Not wanting to dampen the little girl's confidence, Meng Qidi comforted her, "It's okay. I was caught a few times last time. It's good that I wasn't locked up. Let's do it next time."
Ling Jinyue sighed, "No! Sister-in-law, I'm not worried about this..."
Meng Qidi was helpless. Well, she became the younger sister-in-law again. "Then what are you worried about?"
"We didn't sell much yesterday, but when we were about to finish work, someone came to us and said they wanted our kudzu powder. Sister-in-law, how much do you have left?"
Meng Qidi frowned slightly, "How much do they want?"
To be honest, I don't have much stock at home. I can't make much kudzu powder from one pound of kudzu root.
"At least fifty kilograms. She said she has a child at home and no milk. The child is picky about food, so she drinks our kudzu soup."
Meng Qidi sighed, "Go dig it up. Do you have anything to do today? If you don't, let's go to the back mountain to look for it. We can wash it after we dig it up."
She also guessed that the child probably didn't like drinking Kudzu soup, but liked Yuquan water.
She added the spring water with lotion to the kudzu soup she cooked, how could it not taste good? And the bad ingredients in the kudzu root were probably purified by the Yuquan water.
"Then I'll call my brother to help. He has nothing to do." Ling Jinyue quickly turned around and ran.
Meng Qidi opened her mouth, but she hadn't finished her words yet...
I have to go to the west to see if the kudzu powder has grown after being watered by Yuquan water...
However, I have to go dig it in the evening. I hope the well water can play a role when I wash the kudzu root...
If I had known earlier that the land in the back mountain had been sprinkled with Yuquan water, it could have been saved in an emergency...
When Ling Jinyue and his sister arrived, the three of them went into the bamboo forest carrying bamboo baskets and hoes.
Ling Xiao glanced at the book in his hand, looked at the backs of the three people, sighed, and decided to just read the book...
Let the Ling brothers and sisters dig on the spot, while Meng Qidi carried a hoe and went to other places.
Ling Jinming was about to follow, but stopped after a few steps. She probably wasn't afraid of danger...
Without the Ling brothers and sisters, Meng Qidi put away her things and acted recklessly. She picked a lot of wild fruits and found a few places with kudzu roots, but not as many as the one Ling Jinyue found.
Before lunch, the three of them came back with three baskets on their backs. Ling Xiao took a quick look but didn't see any game.
"You guys haven't dug up all the back hills, have you?"
"It's okay. My sister-in-law went to run it, and we dug one."
Ling Jinming poured out the kudzu roots in the basket and planned to help clean and pulp them.
Meng Qidi went into the house to cook and let them do whatever they wanted.
During lunch, the cement that Meng Qidi requested arrived, several bags of it, and some bricks.
These can be sorted out tomorrow.
It took brothers Ling Xiao and Ling Jinming an entire afternoon to get a lot of Pueraria root done.
Meng Qidi poured the rice water into the basin, and when no one was paying attention, she added a drop of Yuquan water...
After all the water was soaked, four or five large basins were placed at the door, and two of them were brought by Ling Jinyue from home...
After soaking the rice water for half an hour, Meng Qidi began to drain the water. She washed it twice before pushing the washed rice water to a cool place to dry...
Wait until the starch has settled, pour out the water, scoop it out, knead it into powder and dry it, then it will be all kudzu powder.
"Then why don't we come back tomorrow?"
After listening to what Meng Qidi said, Ling Jinyue didn't want to leave. She thought it would be fine if she just dug it out...
"There are still some stocks at home. I'll give them to you. You can just deliver them tomorrow. We'll settle the payment when you come back."
Meng Qidi got up and went back to the house. She took out a small bag of kudzu powder from the basket and gave it to Ling Jinyue, telling her the method. She was worried that the child would eat too much and it would be bad for her, so she gave her instructions with some reassurance.
"After all, it is a Chinese herbal medicine, so mothers should not just give it to their children to drink. Instead, they can add it to hot milk or malted milk."
After seeing the brother and sister off, Meng Qidi moved the cement under the eaves. Not only was she afraid that it would be stolen, she was also afraid that it would get wet and clump together.
After dinner, I wanted to dig the kudzu root and polygonum multiflorum in the west, but Ling Xiao said the dates in the backyard were ripe...
Her heart was lifted up, and she hurriedly followed. This should be the last wave, right? She was really careless that time.
Fortunately, Ling Xiao didn't ask and he doesn't like to pry into people's privacy.
When they arrived at the vegetable garden in the backyard, the uncle and nephew were already picking dates under the tree.
The little girl's chattering could be heard from a distance.
The little girl proudly put the red dates to the mouth of Ling Xiao who was picking dates.
"Uncle, this jujube tree has really been cast into magic by my aunt. Eat it, it's crunchy!"
Meng Qidi stumbled and almost fell. Sister, we agreed to keep it a secret...
Ling Xiao had no choice but to eat the red dates. "Don't say that outside. This is because of the spring water in the mountains. The spring water nourishes people and trees."
Ling Xiao's explanation was a bit far-fetched, but the little girl didn't doubt it, and Meng Qidi breathed a sigh of relief.
It's not about the credibility of his words, but even if he found something wrong with me, he was helping to cover it up...
The little girl lowered her voice, "We'll be caught, right? Grandma said this is promoting superstition."
Ling Xiao nodded seriously, "You are right, your grandma is right, you can tell others that your aunt is a fairy, but you can't say that she cast a fairy spell, do you understand?"
Fairies and fairy magic are different. The former can only make people feel that the little girl is shamelessly boasting, but fairy magic is...
Ling Xiao sighed and looked up, "Move aside, I'm knocking."
The little girl quickly took a few steps back, and when she saw Meng Qidi coming not far away, she threw her uncle away.
