Shen Yibei glanced at the thing in his hand and said to Yuanbao, "This is called Gastrodia elata, a medicinal herb. You can take a closer look at it. If you come across it later, you can dig it up and take it home."
Gastrodia elata is a saprophytic, tuberous, leafless herb, and a relatively precious traditional Chinese medicine. It's the perfect season to harvest it, and later give it to Song Jianshe to take to the county town to sell.
Yuanbao's eyes widened immediately after hearing this, and he exclaimed in amazement: "Wow, Brother Yibei, you know so much~"
Yuanbao really admired Shen Yibei in his heart. He felt that he knew a lot and was knowledgeable about a lot of things. Moreover, although Shen Yibei wore similar clothes to them, for some reason, Yuanbao felt that Shen Yibei seemed different from them.
Yuanbao didn't think about it anymore. He lowered his head and looked at the Gastrodia elata in Shen Yibei's hand seriously, remembering its appearance. He thought that he must dig it up and take it home when he saw it in the future. When the brothers saw it, they would definitely praise him.
Baoya listened to Shen Yibei saying that it was a medicinal herb, and looked at the appearance of Tianma carefully. Although she didn't know what it meant, she knew that what Shen Yibei had in his hand must be a good thing.
Shen Yibei took the two children and walked along the way looking for Gastrodia elata. Before dark, they harvested quite a lot.
Seeing that it was getting late, Shen Yibei gave the Gastrodia elata to the two children: "Take these back, and when Fourth Uncle Song comes back, you can tell him that these are Chinese medicinal herbs."
"Yeah!" The two little ones nodded their heads solemnly.
Afterwards, Yuanbao and Baoya each took a little and carefully hid it in their clothes, and gave the rest to Song Jianye.
Song Jianye took it and looked at Shen Yibei: "Xiaobei, do you want to keep some of this medicinal material? Can Uncle Zhao use it?"
Shen Yibei shook his head: “No, and there are still many on the mountain. If I need them, I can come back to find them.”
After hearing what he said, Song Jianye didn't insist any more. He mixed the food with the wild peanuts he had found, and after making sure that they couldn't be seen, he led them down the mountain.
When they were almost at the foot of the mountain, Shen Yibei and Baoya separated. Shen Yibei returned to the cowshed, while Song Jianye took Baoya and Yuanbao back to the old Song family.
After arriving home, he ran to Feng Guizhi like a treasure and showed her the new things he had learned today: "Grandma, look what this is?"
Baoya followed Yuan
Bao ran behind Feng Guizhi. She stood aside obediently, her little face red from running, and her big eyes sparkling with excitement, looking particularly beautiful.
Feng Guizhi held Tiantian in her arms, her eyes swept over the two little ones' faces, a smile in her eyes as she asked, "What is it? Let me see it."
"Look, this is it, grandma, do you know what it's called?"
Baoya held the Gastrodia elata in her hand and brought it to Feng Guizhi so that she could see it up close. However, even after seeing it clearly, Feng Guizhi still didn't know what it was. But she vaguely felt that she should have seen it before.
"I don't know what this is. Can you tell me what it is?"
Hearing that Feng Guizhi didn't know either, Yuanbao immediately puffed up his chest, and then repeated what Shen Yibei had said to him to Feng Guizhi: "Grandma, this is called Gastrodia elata, a medicinal herb. With it, you can make a lot of medicines, and it can also cure many, many diseases~!"
After hearing this, Baoya couldn't help but lower her head and look at the Gastrodia elata in her hand, and her movements became more cautious.
She knew that medicine could cure illnesses. Her father's leg was cured by Grandpa Zhao's medicine, and her grandfather's was also cured by the medicine made by Zhao Rongsheng. So, when Baoya heard that the things in her hands were medicinal herbs that could be used to make many life-saving medicines, she felt that they were particularly precious.
"Yuanbao knows so much?" Feng Guizhi knew as soon as she heard it that Shen Yibei must have led them to find this Tianma. Now seeing Yuanbao like this, she said with a smile.
Yuanbao smiled happily, and then said, "Brother Yibei brought me and my sister Xiaobao to find it. Wow, Brother Yibei is so awesome~!"
When Baoya heard this, she nodded her head in agreement.
"Then you should learn more from Xiaobei and become as powerful as him in the future."
Baoya and Yuanbao nodded with bright eyes.
Then they handed all the Gastrodia elata to Feng Guizhi for safekeeping. Feng Guizhi guessed that Shen Yibei was looking for the Gastrodia elata so that Song Jianshe could take it back to sell in the county town, so she put it away carefully.
After Baoya and Yuanbao played with Tiantian for a while, the students who went to school came back. Yuanbao and Baoya told them about Tianma again, which made them all itchy.
"What does hemp look like that day? Is the place you're looking for high?"
"If Gastrodia elata is a medicinal herb, can it be sold for as much as Matsutake mushrooms?"
"Of course! What Brother Yibei found can definitely be sold for money.
.”
"Wow! I'm going to go find it too!!"
"Yuanbao, Yuanbao, did Brother Yibei tell me which one makes more money, matsutake or Gastrodia elata?"
Yuanbao scratched his head and looked at Baoya, who blinked and looked at him. Then, they both shook their heads: "No, no, Yibei didn't say anything."
The younger ones didn't feel disappointed after hearing this. They turned around and said, "It's good enough to be able to sell it for money. Saturday and Sunday are coming soon. Then we can go to the back mountain to look for Gastrodia elata together!"
When they were looking for cicada shells together, they were enthusiastic and happy because they knew they could sell them and felt they were helping others. But cicada shells only lasted a short time and were gone.
Shen Yibei could find matsutake mushrooms on the back mountain, but they couldn't go there, and he felt disappointed for a while. Now that they saw that there was Gastrodia elata that could be sold, the children began to get excited.
"Okay! Let's find more Gastrodia elata together!"
......
After dinner in the evening, when Yang Yulan was tidying up Baoya's clothes, she remembered what happened to Ying Yunduo last time.
She hadn't been back to her parents' home for a while, so it was a good opportunity for her to go there and see if there was the kind of cloth that Yun Duo liked.
After they finished packing, the family went to bed. Yang Yulan told Song Jianye about the matter, "I want to go back to my parents' the day after tomorrow. I'd like to tell my parents about your leg being healed. Also, when Baoya was wearing the dress my sister-in-law gave her a few days ago, Yunduo liked it very much. I even promised to find her some fabric of a similar color."
Yang Yulan smiled lightly and said, "Things have all come together, and I can go back to see my parents, which is perfect."
After hearing Yang Yulan's words, Song Jianye remembered that he hadn't been to his father-in-law's house for a long time. It had been several months since he broke his leg, so he hadn't been there for almost half a year.
Thinking of this, Song Jianye couldn't help feeling a little guilty. He held Yang Yulan's hand and said, "I'm sorry, I haven't accompanied you back to your parents' home for a long time. The day after tomorrow, I'll go with you three, and we'll go together as a family."
Yang Yulan was of course happy that Song Jianye could go with her. She held Song Jianye's hand and whispered, "Don't be sorry. I haven't blamed you. The day after tomorrow, let's go together as a family."
"good."
Time will soon arrive the day after tomorrow
It was Saturday. The kids had originally planned to go to the back hill to look for Gastrodia elata, but now Baoya and Tianen were missing.
Although Tian'en felt a little regretful, he soon became happy again when he thought about going to his grandmother's house with Song Jianye, Yang Yulan, and his sister Xiaobao. After all, he could still go looking for gastrodia elata with his brothers in the future.
Feng Guizhi heard about this yesterday, so she prepared everything early in the morning.
About two pounds of pork, a dozen eggs, and three pounds of flour. I wanted to give more, but Song Jianye was going on a 28-inch bicycle today, and it would be difficult to carry too much stuff, so I only packed this much.
She packed it in a sturdy bag and tied it securely to the car.
When they finished their meal and were ready to leave, Feng Guizhi took out another three dollars and gave them to buy some food when they passed by the town.
Yang Yulan was reluctant to accept it, but in the end she couldn't persuade Feng Guizhi and accepted it.
Seeing that it was getting late, the family of four got on the bike and started heading over there. Song Jianye rode the bike steadily, Yang Yulan sat in the back, and Baoya sat between her and Song Jianye.
Baoya clutched Song Jianye's clothes tightly, her little face pressed against his back, her eyes curiously looking around. Tianen sat on the big bar in front, his little face full of excitement, feeling that sitting here was a special novelty.
The family walked all the way like this, but the big bar in front was still a big bar. It was fine at first, but after sitting for a long time, his butt started to hurt. At first, Xian En could still bear it, but gradually the pain became more and more, and he had to keep adjusting his posture back and forth.
Seeing that he was still moving, Song Jianye guessed the reason and slowly stopped moving. Then he carried Tianen down and said, "Let's rest here for a while before we go. We'll be in town soon."
Yang Yulan also got out of the car, carried Baoya down, and asked her to take it easy.
After a short break, Tian'en felt his buttocks were less painful, so he got back on the car and the family of four continued on their way. About ten minutes later, they arrived at the town. Everyone got off, and Song Jianye pushed the car at the back while Yang Yulan led Tian'en and Baoya up the front, stopping occasionally to buy snacks.
When he was in front of the stall, the stall owner saw Song Jian
Even Ye, who was pushing a 28-inch bicycle, couldn't help but take a few more glances.
It wasn't long before the family of four arrived at the door. Yang Yulan went forward and knocked. Soon a voice came from inside: "Is that my second sister?"
Then, the door was opened from the inside, and Wang Mengjiao saw a family of four standing outside. When she saw Song Jianye, she was obviously stunned for a moment, and then she welcomed him into the house.
Song Jianye pushed the 28-inch bicycle into the yard and parked it against the wall. Only then did Wang Mengjiao notice it and was surprised again. However, she didn't think much about it, just thinking that the bicycle was borrowed by them.
If it were in the past, she would definitely take the opportunity to say a few sarcastic words, but now, she chose to keep silent, for fear of embarrassing Yang Yulan and the others.
Soon, Yang's mother came out. Seeing that it was Yang Yulan and Song Jianye, she was surprised and delighted: "Hey, Jianye is here too? Jianye, is your leg healed?"
"Yeah, just a short while ago." Song Jianye put everything on the table and replied with a faint smile.
"Oh, that's great!" Seeing that he was healed, Yang's mother was very happy. She looked at him a few more times and said, "Your leg has healed really well. You can't tell at all that you fell before. But even if it's healed, you still have to be careful."
Song Jianye agreed, and then said apologetically: "Mom, I haven't been here for a long time. I couldn't come to see Dad when he was injured before. I hope you won't be angry."
"Hey, what are you talking about? How could you come here with your leg injured? We are not unreasonable people. As long as you are fine, that's enough." Yang's mother waved her hand and said.
"Your father went to work today and won't be back until noon. You should go into the house and sit for a while. When your father comes back, he will definitely be happy to see you. Baoya and Tianen, come and sit next to grandma." Mother Yang greeted Baoya and Tianen happily.
Then he called Wang Mengjiao: "Mengjiao, you should sit down quickly too, don't get tired."
Hearing what she said, Yang Yulan couldn't help but turn her head to look at Wang Mengjiao, her eyes staying on her belly for two seconds.
The tone of Yang's mother's voice, coupled with what Baoya said last time, made Yang Yulan vaguely guess something.
Soon, this guess was confirmed: "Yulan, mother has good news for you, Meng Jiao is pregnant~!" Mother Yang lovingly touched Tian En and Bao Ya's heads, then looked up at Yang with a smile on her face.
Magnolia said.
Hearing this, Yang Yulan and Song Jianye couldn't help but look at each other with genuine smiles on their faces: "Meng Jiao, congratulations."
Then he said a little embarrassedly: "I don't know, I haven't prepared anything. I will definitely bring it when I come back."
Wang Mengjiao waved her hand: "No need for anything, just come here."
Seeing Wang Mengjiao's obvious change in attitude, Song Jianye felt a little confused. However, it was a good thing that things were not like before.
Six people sat in the main hall. Mother Yang looked at her two grandsons and asked about the situation of the Song family. Time passed quickly. Seeing that it was almost noon, Mother Yang got up quickly:
"It's getting late. I'm going to clean up and cook. You guys rest here for a while."
Wang Mengjiao got up to help, and Yang Yulan wanted to refuse and let her stay in the main room. But then she remembered that Song Jianye was also here this time, and if she and Song Jianye were left alone, it would be a bit awkward for both of them.
Then, Yang Yulan said, "Don't go. Rest here for a while. Tianen Baoya, you two can talk to Jinzi. Jianye and I can go."
Wang Mengjiao wanted to say something, but when she saw the couple went straight to the kitchen, she stopped talking.
Song Jianye took out the two pounds of pork he brought and placed it on the chopping board. He also carefully placed the eggs and flour aside. Mother Yang rinsed the pot, turned her head and saw these things, she was stunned for a moment, then said disapprovingly:
"Why did you buy pork? And you brought so many things with you. It's such a waste of money. Don't take it next time."
Yang Yulan explained to her that it was a reward, and then told her about the award. Even Yang's mother was stunned: "Jianye won an award in the city?"
After asking a few more questions, a happy smile appeared on Yang's mother's face, and her wrinkles smoothed out.
"Great, great, this is great news. Jianye has made great progress and even won an award in the city."
......
The three of them were chatting happily in the kitchen. Not long after, Yang Guozhong also came back from work.
