The happy little days of the Ye family

Chapter 486 Planting Herbs (2)

There was a light rain a few days ago, and the mushrooms on the mountain have begun to sprout.

The rain wasn't heavy, so there weren't many mushrooms in the first crop, and they were all small.

Ye Qingqing held a small basket in his hand and picked all the mushrooms he saw on the road.

Although the first crop of mushrooms did not grow well, it was still a rare delicacy. Ye Qingqing might not have had fresh mushrooms for a long time.

Ye Qingqing held the branches and carefully searched for the mushrooms hidden in the grass and under the fallen leaves.

Ye Qingqing picked up a lot of aeruginosa and green-headed fungi at the foot of the mountain. There were less red mushrooms and gallinobacteria, and he only picked up a few.

In addition to picking up mushrooms, Ye Qingqing also did not forget that today's task was to grow herbs.

Tang Xiaojing cleared the fallen leaves and weeds on the ground. The soil below was relatively moist. Tang Xiaojing turned over the soil with a hoe, and then Ye Qingqing scattered the seeds of the herbs.

Everything grows in spring, and any branch can take root and sprout. After these herbs are planted, they will sprout in a few days.

Tang Xiaojing will explain to Ye Qingqing what kind of medicinal material it is and what effect it has.

(I have looked up information on the efficacy and efficacy of medicines, but I don’t know whether they are true or false. Please do not learn from them.)

"This is a bitter vegetable, which has the effect of strengthening the stomach and gallbladder." Tang Xiaojing brought the seeds to Ye Qingqing and explained carefully.

"There seems to be a lot of this bitter vegetable in ordinary mountains." Ye Qingqing had seen it before in the back mountain and the small back mountain.

"This bitter vegetable is easy to grow. It can grow well without taking care of it after planting. But because it is so easy to grow, the price is not high, only 30 cents per pound."

Ye Qingqing originally planned to go to other mountains to pick this bitter vegetable, but when he heard that it only cost 30 cents per pound, he immediately gave up the idea.

Herbal medicine itself is relatively light, costing only 30 cents per pound. If she has this time, she might as well do more embroidery.

After the bitter herbs were planted, Tang Xiaojing introduced another herbal medicine to Ye Qingqing.

"This is nightshade, which is also a wild vegetable we often eat, but it is also a medicinal material. It has the effects of strengthening the stomach, protecting the liver and improving eyesight."

Unexpectedly, Ye Qingqing was a little surprised to find that the wild vegetables that he usually dug for food were also medicinal materials.

"There are a lot of nightshades in the nearby mountains. I used to dig them up and eat them. I didn't expect them to be used as medicinal materials."

However, this nightshade is everywhere, and Ye Qingqing knows that it is worthless without asking.

Bitter vegetables and nightshade are easy to grow, so Tang Xiaojing always planted them on the slopes at the foot of mountains and in some fields with less fertile soil.

After planting nightshades, the two continued walking up the mountain. The higher they went, the more lush the surrounding weeds became, and the more mushrooms they found.

Tang Xiaojing was looking for a place suitable for growing medicinal herbs, while Ye Qingqing was looking for edible mushrooms.

Ye Qingqing came under a small tree and found several green-headed mushrooms under the tree.

Ye Qingqing squatted down and dug mushrooms with twigs with a smile on his face, "One, two... five, and the whole family will be in order."

After digging the green head mushrooms, Ye Qingqing was just about to get up when he looked up and found two bright red mushrooms on the right front, and there was a cluster of straw mushrooms beside it.

Seeing so many mushrooms, Ye Qingqing almost grinned from the corner of his mouth to the back of his ears. He had already thought about how to eat them, stir-fried mushrooms with bacon and mixed mushroom soup.

Ye Qingqing was digging mushrooms when she suddenly heard Tang Xiaojing calling her.

"Wait a minute, I'll come over after I dig up these mushrooms." Ye Qingqing quickened his movements and dug out all the red mushrooms and straw mushrooms in a few clicks.

Not far away, Tang Xiaojing had already found a place to grow herbal medicine and took out a pack of seeds from his backpack. However, Tang Xiaojing did not let Ye Qingqing touch these seeds.

"This is Datura, which has muscle relaxing and sedative effects. It can also be used to treat insomnia, but it is toxic."

"Datura can be used as medicine all over the body, including leaves, stems, roots and seeds. Different parts have different medicinal effects."

Ye Qingqing looked at the mandala seeds in Tang Xiaojing's hand and suddenly thought of a question.

"This datura is poisonous. If planted on the mountain, will other people or animals accidentally eat it?"

This is their own hill. Except for him and the long-term workers who check the traps, almost no one else comes to the hill.

In the past, Tang Xiaojing had planted them randomly. He had never thought about whether small animals might accidentally eat them. He thought about it and said:

"Then plant it on the top of the mountain. Rabbits and other small animals are usually found halfway up the mountain. There are some miscellaneous trees on the top of the mountain. There are few animals and there is no fear of being eaten by mistake. "

Tang Xiaojing put the Datura seeds back into the basket, and then took out another pack of seeds.

"This is nettle, which is slightly toxic, but the toxicity is very small. It is very effective in treating rheumatism and toothache in children."

Xunma has very little toxicity, so even if you eat it there will be no big problem. Tang Xiaojing directly planted the seeds in the open space halfway up the mountain.

There were a lot of red mushrooms and straw mushrooms halfway up the mountain. Ye Qingqing picked up a basket of mushrooms in no time.

After planting the nettles, Tang Xiaojing took Ye Qingqing and continued walking up the mountain. The two came to a small open space.

Tang Xiaojing took out a pack of medicinal seeds with a significantly smaller quantity, looked at Ye Qingqing and said:

"This is Polygonum multiflorum, which has the effect of nourishing qi and blood. Polygonum multiflorum has high medicinal value, so it is more valuable than ordinary herbs."

Ye Qingqing became interested when he heard that Polygonum multiflorum was more valuable than ordinary herbs.

Now Ye Qingqing no longer had to worry about picking mushrooms, and was very active in helping Tang Xiaojing plow the ground.

After planting Polygonum multiflorum, Ye Qingqing took Tang Xiaojing to find mushrooms nearby.

The grass here is relatively lush, and there are many green-headed mushrooms and straw mushrooms. Ye Qingqing had a great time picking mushrooms.

Seeing the basket behind him being filled little by little with mushrooms, Ye Qingqing felt very satisfied.

Picking mushrooms is like an addiction. Every time he goes to the mountains to pick mushrooms, Ye Qingqing simply can't stop.

Not far away, Tang Xiaojing found another nest of gallinobacteria. He was lucky today and had found several nests of gallinobacteria.

Tang Xiaojing looked at the gallbladder fungus in the basket and said happily to Ye Qingqing:

"I will hunt a pheasant later. This chicken is stuffed with bacteria into the pheasant's belly to make roasted chicken. It tastes particularly good, and the chicken is tender and juicy."

Ye Qingqing felt a little hungry after hearing Tang Xiaojing talk about roast chicken, and urged Tang Xiaojing to quickly go to the top of the mountain to plant mandala.

The two of them had already reached the halfway point between the mountainside and the top of the mountain, and they walked quickly up the mountain.

The two quickly planted the last packet of seeds.

On the way down the mountain, Tang Xiaojing hunted a pheasant and a hare with a bow and arrow.

The two came to the spring halfway up the mountain. Tang Xiaojing took the pheasants and rabbits to clean it, while Ye Qingqing picked up some firewood near the spring to make a fire.

As soon as Ye Qingqing lit the fire, Tang Xiaojing came back with the cleaned pheasants and rabbits.

Tang Xiaojing tore the washed gallinophilia into small pieces and stuffed them into the bellies of pheasants and hares.

Rabbits and pheasants are constantly turned over the charcoal fire, the fat on the surface is roasted, and the air is filled with the fragrant aroma of meat.

Smelling the rich aroma of meat, the greedy Rhubarb and Xiaohuang ran out, wagging their big tails.
