Ji Changying looked at the weeds and trees everywhere on the roadside and felt excited.
These are all normal plants!
There are no more murderous vines or man-eating flowers.
Even the slightly yellowed hay looks so attractive.
Ji Changying walked along the roadside, feeling particularly happy as she looked at the weeds and wild fields on the roadside.
As a country with a rich food culture, the Chinese people have always believed that there is nothing that cannot be eaten, only things that don’t taste good.
According to the "Compendium of Materia Medica", the vast majority of wild plants have certain pharmacological effects!
Her eyes kept scanning the roadside until she saw a useful wild vegetable.
Ground lotus, scientifically known as Ground lotus, is a common perennial herb.
In spring, you can pick the young leaves, blanch them and serve them cold. The taste is refreshing and slightly astringent.
It’s a pity that it’s autumn now, but it doesn’t matter, the roots and rhizomes are edible.
Ji Changying took advantage of the officer's inattention, ran to the side of the road not far away, raised his butt, grabbed a handful, and ran back to the team excitedly.
When Mrs. Hu saw this scene, she thought Ji Changying was "sick" again.
Her brows were furrowed with worry. "Aying, it must be so tiring to carry all these. Let's stop playing with the grass, okay? Auntie will give you some candy."
As he said this, he wanted to take the bundle of weeds and throw it away.
Ji Changying dodged for a moment: "That won't do, this grass is full of good stuff!"
Ji Fengshou lagged behind a little and quietly came over to take a look: "This is just weeds. Listen to Daddy and stop playing with it, dear."
"This is called ground lotus root. The whole plant can be used as medicine. It can lower blood lipids, open the nine orifices, benefit joints, and nourish qi and blood! It's autumn now, and although the top part can't be eaten, the rhizome can be stir-fried, mixed with cold dishes, or even made into pickles!"
Seeing Ji Changying speaking so conscientiously, Mrs. Hu looked at her strangely: "How do you know all this?"
Ji Fengshou stopped smiling and looked at Ji Changying with scrutiny.
She replied calmly, "I don't know. Sometimes my mind is confused, sometimes it's clear. I feel a special affinity for these weeds, and they come to me naturally."
Mrs. Hu hissed.
"Could it be that the old Taoist priest is really some kind of immortal?"
After saying this, she slapped her thigh in regret: "If I had known I couldn't have just let him go like that! At least I could leave him a place to stay so I can look for him in the future!"
Ji Fengshou asked, "On your tenth birthday, our family of four celebrated your birthday and bought a candy figurine for your brother and you. Xiaochuan's figurine was a monkey. What was yours?"
Ji Changying thought for a moment and then her face fell:
"You and my mother each took a bite of the candied haws in front of Xiaochuan and me, making us drool. You smiled and said, 'This is for adults, children can't eat it.'"
"He only took me and my brother to eat fried jelly on the roadside until he made us cry. Where did the sugar figurines come from?"
Mrs. Hu looked at Ji Fengshou in surprise.
She thought her brother-in-law and his wife were troublesome, but she didn't expect them to be so unreliable!
Ji Fengshou didn't expect that she actually remembered this matter so clearly, and a guilty look suddenly appeared on his face.
"Haha, Daddy was just testing you to see how much you remember about your childhood. I didn't expect you to have such a good memory."
Ji Changying said quietly, "Of course I remember it clearly. My brother and I cried for a long time on the street back then. If it weren't for that incident, my brother wouldn't have started worrying about our family since then, don't you think?"
Ji Fengshou felt even more guilty, muttering quietly, "Why remember something else? Why do you have to remember this?"
What can he do?
Who made him so lucky!
In the past, my parents worried about me, and now that my parents are gone, my brother and sister-in-law still worry about me.
As a result, he had no awareness of being a father.
The child is so fun. He likes to make his child cry and then comfort him.
As a result, the older his son gets, the less fun he becomes. He has a stern face and a serious expression, which really resembles his deceased father.
Sometimes he felt scared when he saw it.
While the three people were saying these words, the police noticed them and walked towards them with a whip in hand.
Ji Changying quickly winked at the two of them and dispersed.
Seeing that the three people went their separate ways tactfully, the officer snorted and shifted his gaze.
After an entire afternoon, almost everyone was sweating profusely, and some even felt dizzy and fell to the ground while walking.
Before he could receive any caring greetings from his family, he was whipped coldly by the officials.
"Hurry up and get up and continue! If anyone dares to delay the journey, don't blame us for being rude!"
The officers held whips in their hands and long knives on their waists. They took a big gulp of water and glanced at the shackled prisoners one by one with warnings.
Seeing that no one showed a look of dissatisfaction on their face, he snorted.
After walking for a long time, the shackles on the man's hands and feet felt like a mountain, making it hard for him to breathe.
Ji Fengshou was in good health, but Ji Fengyi, the scholar, had already turned pale and his hands and feet were trembling.
Now I am just gritting my teeth and holding on.
Although the woman didn't need to carry those things, she was almost exhausted physically.
Finally, even the officers couldn't stand it anymore and came to Zhang Ziwei: "Boss, let's go for a while. We can't take it anymore."
Zhang Ziwei glanced at the team and saw that many people were shivering, then he nodded in agreement.
As soon as they stopped, someone fell to the ground.
Ji Mingxue sat down on the ground, panting. He looked at Ji Changying and said in a flattering manner, "Aying, I was ungrateful before. Are you tired? If not, I'll rely on you later."
He smells so good.
What's the point of losing face? What's the point of saving face?
Nothing is as comfortable as not having to walk now.
"A good horse can't leap ten steps in one leap, but a slow horse can travel ten miles in ten days if it perseveres. As a man, how dare you back down over such a small difficulty? How dare you say such shameless words that disregard your family's hard work?"
Although Ji Fengyi was sweating profusely, he still stood straight in front of Ji Mingxue and questioned him coldly.
Hearing his father showing off his knowledge again, Ji Mingxue felt his head buzzing.
"Just pretend I didn't say anything. I just lost my mind. I'm hitting myself in the face." Ji Mingxue slapped himself on the mouth twice, and his attitude of admitting his mistake very well stopped Ji Fengyi from saying anything else.
After glaring at him, Ji Fengyi closed his eyes and said nothing more.
Ji Changying looked at his second brother and grinned, "Opportunities are fleeting, and it's too late to regret now!"
snort!
He used to think she made him lose face and would walk around her.
Now I want her to carry it, but she is not happy about it!
In order to prevent her family from dehydration, Ji Changying secretly sprinkled some salt and sugar into the water bag.
Although it tastes weird, it can replenish your energy.
After resting for just a few minutes, the group set out on their journey again.
Until the afterglow in the sky gradually faded and only the last bit of light remained, the team was finally stopped by Zhang Ziwei.
"Rest here tonight!"
