Chapter 10 Foot of the Mountain
"How can it be unrelated? Ruoqing, don't you already have that kind of relationship with Brother Chen?" Sun Taohua's eyes widened, "And Brother Chen will be back tomorrow. Have you prepared something for Brother Chen?"
"What kind of relationship do you mean? Lin Chen and I have nothing to do with each other! Sun Taohua, if you continue to make up rumors about me, don't blame me for being rude! San Ya, let's go back!"
Sun Taohua just thought that it was Shen Xue who was here, and Shen Ruoqing was too embarrassed to admit it. She looked at Shen Ruoqing's back and shouted, "Ruoqing, I'll wait for you at the old place tomorrow morning!"
"Aunt, didn't you like Brother Lin Chen very much before?" Shen Xue was a little surprised.
"What do you mean by liking? It's just admiration at best! Do you understand what admiration means? Isn't Lin Chen the only high school student in our village? I will also take the high school entrance exam and the college entrance exam in the future. I admire people with high academic qualifications!" Shen Ruoqing said, "However, Lin Chen has a bad character. It's useless even if he has a high academic qualification! I used to admire his attitude towards learning, but you don't know that he often flirts with girls in the village. Such a person has a bad character. No matter how many books he reads, it's useless. You should stay away from him."
"Oh." Shen Xue agreed, not quite understanding. She didn't see Brother Lin Chen flirting with any girl.
"Aunt, hasn't the university been cancelled?"
"Ahem, there will be more in college later."
In Shen Ruoqing's eyes, Lin Chen was just a pretty face. Lin Chen's family was average, and he relied on his face to trick the original owner into giving him a lot of money and food. Old Lady Ji was generous to the original owner, and all the money and food went into Lin Chen's pocket. Sun Taohua was the intermediary between the two. The original owner gave the money and food to Sun Taohua, and Sun Taohua gave it to Lin Chen.
Of course, Lin Chen never asked the original owner for anything, it was always the original owner who gave it to him. At the beginning, it was not the original owner who took the initiative to give it, it was Sun Taohua who fanned the flames and instigated the original owner to give Lin Chen money, and then Lin Chen did not refuse.
After sorting out the memories in his mind, Shen Ruoqing felt more and more that Lin Chen was a gigolo, and Sun Taohua was even more of a bad person. Since she liked Lin Chen, she instigated the original owner to give money to win Lin Chen's favor. It would be too easy for Sun Taohua to just let her go.
In the afternoon, Shen Ruoqing planned to go to the mountain.
Live by the mountain, live by the water. She has almost dug up the wild vegetables and herbs in several nearby places, but the foot of the mountain is a place that the villagers often go to, and the harvest may not be good. If she wants to have a good harvest, she has to go deeper. Shen Ruoqing's head has recovered after taking special medicine, but in order to hide her from others, her head is still wrapped with a bandage. Old Mrs. Ji mentioned taking her to the hospital for further examination several times, but she refused. If she really went to take a look, wouldn't she be exposed? This time she didn't plan to go deep into the mountain, but planned to investigate first. There are still many wild beasts at this time. It is said that there are tigers in the deep mountains. Although Shen Ruoqing is a time traveler, she is not a killer, and she doesn't have any special things to protect herself. At most, she can buy a pistol in the system mall. But she doesn't have much money now, so she doesn't plan to buy it. She will just walk around the foot of the mountain first.
When she got to the foot of the mountain, Shen Ruoqing noticed that there were already a lot of people picking vegetables nearby, but she believed that there should still be some wild vegetables and herbs in hidden locations. She had the detection function of the system mall, so she was not afraid of not finding them.
"Ding - Nightshade was found 13 meters to the right."
"Ding - Phytolacca is found 30 meters ahead."
"Ding - Motherwort was found 42 meters behind."
…
The sound of dripping water kept coming, and Shen Ruoqing was delighted. She had started the detection of medicinal herbs, but she didn't expect to get such a big harvest. Wild vegetables are hard to find, after all, this place has been visited by many people, but in the countryside, many people don't know herbs, and there are still many of these herbs that look like weeds.
There are definitely some edible wild vegetables when you go deep into the mountains, but the energy consumed is not proportional to the calories consumed, which results in all the wild vegetables at the foot of the mountain being dug up, while the inside of the mountain is still lush and green.
Shen Ruoqing was busy, but she hadn't finished digging all the herbs for a long time. When she saw that it was almost done, she wiped her sweat and bought a big fat chicken from the mall. She spent five yuan. She had to eat this wild fat chicken and couldn't let Old Lady Ji sell it. After thinking about it, she bought 10 eggs from the system mall.
She put it in the basket, and when she came out, she only brought the basket, which was covered with dandelions to avoid being seen by others. In this era, although if you kill one or two pheasants, the team will generally turn a blind eye and keep them as yours, it will be very troublesome if someone reports it.
"Hey, Ruoqing girl, I've seen you digging wild vegetables recently. Why don't you rest at home? The sun is so hot."
On the way back, I inevitably met some people.
These people were muttering to themselves, saying that the Shen family's precious little girl had come out to dig wild vegetables. It seemed that the Shen family was not having a good time.
"Aunt Zhang, after I hit my head, I figured out a lot of things. I can't always rely on my family for support. I have to do what I can and contribute to society." Shen Ruoqing answered obediently.
"Tsk, you're just pretending. If you really want to contribute to society, you should go to work. You can only dig a few. The food will be distributed in more than a month. I wonder if your family will have enough food by then?" Ji Meihua, the cousin who doesn't get along with Old Lady Ji, said sarcastically. I thought this girl would not survive, but who would have thought that she would be lucky enough to survive! I wanted to see Old Lady Ji make a fool of herself, but now I can't!
"You who love your country have forgotten that Ruoqing still has to study and go to school."
"What kind of school is this? She has the energy to go out and dig wild vegetables, but she doesn't go back to school. I think she is just being lazy. She is such a big girl, her grades are not good, and she is still so lazy. How can she get married in the future? I am just your cousin, so I am giving you a few words of advice!"
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
"Aunt, I remember Liu Hao is already 23 this year, right? Has he found a partner? I am just concerned about you as your younger sister!"
Liu Hao is Ji Meihua's youngest son, who is 23 years old. He is not tall, only about 1.6 meters, and he doesn't look good. He doesn't go to work and just hangs around in the brigade all day long. He is just a street urchin, so no girl is willing to marry him until now.
"Aunt, cousin Liu Hao's lifelong affair hasn't been settled yet, so you shouldn't worry about other people's affairs, okay?" After Shen Ruoqing finished speaking, she ignored Ji Meihua's blushing and pale face and strode forward to go home.
She was in a hurry to go home to eat meat and had no time to chat with Ji Meihua here.
