Chapter 122 Digging for Herbs

Chapter 122 Digging for Herbs

A few minutes after the meal, Brother Yang's family and Liu Shengnan all came.

Seeing Tian Hao, the little girl ran up and hugged his thigh: "Master, master, I also want to go dig herbs with you and help you make money."

"Okay, it's just that I didn't prepare a small hoe for you. After two days, I'll buy one for you." Tian Hao picked up the little girl.

It didn't take long for the others to arrive one after another. Tang Ning'er stayed in the room and did not come out.

Seeing that they were all there, Tian Hao asked them to wait for him at the gate of the yard. He closed the door and carried Xiaoya to Tang Ning'er's gate.

Tian Hao said: "Tang Ning'er, we are going to the back mountain. I will take them to check it out today. The herbs in the pot are still boiling. Don't forget to add firewood. I will help you when I come back. "

"Well, you can go at ease."

Tian Hao picked up the pannier that was placed in the corner, put Xiaoya in it, and went out with Xiaoya on his back.

Tian Hao said: "Let's go and have a look today, dig a little by the way, and continue digging the rest tomorrow."

"it is good."

Several people catered to him one after another, and Uncle Gousheng and Fuwa came to Uncle Gousheng's house.Uncle Ergou's family is only uncle Ergou, and the second aunt stays at home to take care of Goudan.Both Brother Yang and Sister-in-law Yang are here.

Tian Hao looked at a few people, and then said: "Sister Shengnan will dig with Uncle Ergou, and Huzi will dig with Fuwa."

"Success, I can follow whoever you want me to follow." Huzi replied with a smile.

Liu Shengnan also nodded and said nothing more.

When they were ready, they set off up the mountain together.

Tian Hao assigned three herbal medicine lists, some expensive and some cheap, but Tian Hao still took them to every place.

When digging herbs, Tian Hao taught him very seriously. Some herbs need to be dug out by their roots. Such herbs need to be dug into the soil with a hoe first, and then the piece should be carefully broken, and then the soil at the root should be given to the soil. shake off.

There are some roots that have medicinal value, leaves that have no value, and some that have leaves that are useful.

Tian Hao passed on all the tricks to them: "You need to be careful when digging herbs, like ours, if they are damaged, they will be worthless. But now you all follow me, it doesn't matter if you dig it slowly , It will be fine if you become proficient in the future.”

After Tian Hao finished speaking, everyone started to do it one after another.Xiaoya stretched out her little hand to help, but Liu Shengnan hurriedly held her.

Liu Shengnan sent Xiaoya to play nearby: "This herb is very precious, don't play here, go to the side."

"I want to help too..."

"What can a child do to help, go and play next to it cleanly." Liu Shengnan pushed the little girl away.

Xiaoya looked around, she was really bored, and her pouting mouth became bad.

Seeing Liu Shengnan digging the herbs hard, the little girl squatted on the ground, she reached out to dig the herbs next to her without a small hoe.

One accidentally fell down and dug up several herbs next to it.

Seeing this, Liu Shengnan was very distressed. She pulled the little girl up, and yelled at her: "I told you to stay by the side, don't come here to play, these herbs are very expensive! Look at you, it's broken now... "

Xiaoya couldn't hold back her tears in an instant. She squeezed her hands tightly together and said in a low voice, "I...I don't want you to work too hard, and I want to help you too, woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Tian Hao hurriedly hugged the little girl into his arms, and persuaded Liu Shengnan: "Sister Shengnan, the child is also kind, so there is no need to blame her. Besides, these herbs are all grown on the mountain by ourselves, and we didn't waste our energy. If they are gone, there will be nothing to lose." Well, it's just two pillars."

Liu Shengnan was furious, and felt that Xiaoya was getting more and more mischievous. She fell into the water before, but now she ruined the herbal medicine.

Second Aunt Yang and her man glanced at each other, and she hurriedly stood up to persuade: "Children are all like this, it's okay to be naughty. Don't be angry, come and drink your saliva."

Sister-in-law Yang also sympathized with Liu Shengnan. Liu Shengnan had a falling out with the Liu family because of Xiaoya, and broke up with Xiaoya's father. It was very hard to raise the child alone.

Unavoidably a little angry, Second Aunt Yang said to Xiaoya again: "Xiaoya, just apologize to your mother and you'll be fine."

The little girl just held on to Tian Hao's trouser legs tightly, crying softly, just like a cat meowing.

Tian Hao sighed in his heart, and said: "Forget it, keep digging, I will take Xiaoya to the side to have a look."

After finishing speaking, he picked up the little girl and went directly to the nearby hill.

Tian Hao stretched out his hand to wipe Xiaoya's tears, and he coaxed Xiaoya: "It's okay, okay, you are such a crybaby. Don't cry, your face is crying."

"Master... I really didn't do it on purpose, I just wanted to help my mother, I didn't want to damage the herbs..." Xiaoya said with a choked voice.

Doing bad things with good intentions, everyone will have such moments when they were young, even Tian Hao missed it when he was young.

As long as the heart is good, it's fine.

Tian Hao said: "Okay, don't cry, don't cry. If you really want to learn, let me teach you, okay?"

"Really...really?"

"I can still lie to you."

Tian Hao took Xiaoya's little hand and led her to find a small piece of herbal medicine nearby.Tian Hao took the hoe and weighed it in his hand before handing it to Xiaoya.

Tian Hao: "Try and see if you can move it."

Although this hoe is a small hoe, it is not light in weight, and it is still a bit difficult for a child of a few years old.

Xiaoya held her hands tightly, but she still refused to let go, holding her breath and said, "I can do it! Master, let's go dig herbs."

Tian Hao looked at her with a smile, and then taught her carefully: "This herb is called Sunflower Grass. It is usually used to drive away the cold, and it is specially brewed for drinking. It loves the sun and grows in sunny places..."

"Its medicinal value lies in the upper part. We usually just cut it off with a knife." Tian Hao took out the knife and paused, "Do you know how to use a knife?"

The little girl nodded: "I will! I am at my grandma's house and often help cook. I can use a kitchen knife."

Tian Hao couldn't help feeling distressed when he heard that, he reached out and touched Xiaoya's head, and then directed Xiaoya to cut the herbs.

Xiaoya is very obedient and works very hard. Although she is small, she is also very patient.

Even though he was tired and sweating profusely, he didn't choose to give up. He just took a rest for a while and continued to work.

Tian Hao couldn't help but nodded when he saw this. To study medicine is to have this kind of hard-working spirit.

Tian Hao said: "Little girl, do you still remember what I said just now? What is this herbal medicine and what effect does it have."

Xiaoya was still a little confused when she was asked, but she quickly answered: "This is sunflower..."
