The happy little days of the Ye family

Lunch was finished amidst a burst of laughter, and the peeled eggshells were buried in the soil by Tangshan.

After lunch, the three of them did not go to plant herbs immediately, but sat on the rocks to rest. After all, they were quite tired after a busy morning.

Ye Qingqing usually doesn't move much. After walking all morning, his calves are already a little sore.

I picked mushrooms in the morning. My backpack was full of fresh and tender mushrooms, and my shoulders felt sore.

Tang Xiaojing glanced at Tangshan beside him, who happened to have his back to him and Ye Qingqing.

Tang Xiaojing had learned massage in a pharmacy before. He first pressed Ye Qingqing's shoulders, then squatted down at Ye Qingqing's feet and carefully massaged Ye Qingqing's calves.

Ye Qingqing was a little embarrassed, but he was too tired, and Tang Shan had his back to the two of them, so he didn't refuse.

Dahuang and Xiaohuang, who were lying at Ye Qingqing's feet, were already snoring from exhaustion.

Tang Xiaojing was thinking about going hunting later and wanted to finish planting the herbs early.

After pressing Ye Qingqing's calf, the three of them got up and continued working.

Seeing Dahuang and Xiaohuang sleeping soundly, the three of them got up gently, hoping to let these two great heroes have a good rest.

However, Big Yellow and Little Yellow are more alert. Even if they fall asleep, they will wake up immediately if there is any trouble.

Seeing Ye Qingqing and the others getting up, Da Huang and Xiao Huang immediately stood up, wagging their big tails and jumped down from the boulder after the three of them.

There were about 60 seeds of Polygonatum and Gastrodia elata each, and Tang Xiaojing and Tangshan planted them in every corner of the small valley.

While planting herbs, the three of them carefully inspected the valley.

There are several springs on the surrounding rocks, so there are two thin streams below the valley.

The valley is also relatively humid, the surrounding rocks are covered with moss, and the various vegetation below the valley grow particularly well.

Although the plants grew well, they didn't see many live animals. The three of them walked around and only saw various birds on the treetops.

In addition to tall trees and weeds, there are also several wild fruit trees in the valley. The ones Ye Qingqing knows include grapes, bayberries, peaches and plums.

Not a single pheasant or hare was seen in the mountains outside.

The valley was relatively cold and humid, and Tangshan was originally worried that there might be poisonous snakes hiding in it.

Fortunately, except for the little green snake hiding under the dendrobium at the beginning, no other venomous snakes were seen later.

Tangshan thought to himself that the valley was probably surrounded by large rocks, and other animals except birds could not climb in.

The three of them walked through the valley and planted all the herbal seeds in Tang Xiaojing's hands.

Ye Qingqing had already picked two baskets full of mushrooms at this time.

There are a lot of mushrooms here, and Ye Qingqing also found a lot of morels and gallinobacteria.

Tang Xiaojing's basket on his back contained half a dendrobium plant picked in the morning and eight Polygonatum sibiricum plants that were more than 7 years old.

In addition, there are also common herbs picked by Tang Xiao Jing in a half-back basket.

Although ordinary herbs are not valuable, half a basket can be worth more than ten cents, which can be enough to buy a pound of meat.

There were not many herbal seeds left, and Tang Xiaojing had plenty of time in the afternoon, so he picked some.

Ye Qingqing calculated it and found that today's harvest was quite good. In addition to the herbs in Tang Xiaojing's basket, he also found two wild ginseng and two Millet's bloodvines.

When they returned, the three of them were all smiling, even Da Huang and Xiao Huang were particularly excited.

After climbing out of the rocky hill, Tangshan carefully cleaned up all the fallen leaves and footprints that the three of them had trampled on.

While Tangshan was cleaning up, he told Tang Xiaojing and Ye Qingqing:

"The small valley inside must not be discovered by others. Remember to clean up all traces on the ground when you go in and out."

Then Tangshan carefully taught the two of them how to quickly remove the traces on the ground.

The young couple learned it very seriously and firmly remembered it in their hearts. They must clean up the traces on the ground when they go in and out.

The value of this small valley is higher than the entire stone mountain. If someone else discovers it and cuts off the treasure inside, the sky will really fall.

When going down the mountain, Tang Shan repeatedly warned: "If nothing happens, you two should come less to this small valley. If you come more, there will be traces."

"If you come here, try to stagger the time with the long-term workers at home. For example, on mushroom picking days, try not to come here."

Ye Qingqing originally planned to come here often to carefully observe when the wild ginseng tree would bear seeds.

But what Tangshan said makes sense. If people come here often, this small valley will be easily discovered, so it is better to come here less often.

Before Tang Xiaojing went out, he specially brought the bow and arrows he used for hunting.

All the pheasants and hares encountered on the way down the mountain could not escape Tang Xiaojing's vicious hands, and were all killed by Tang Xiaojing's arrows.

It was already summer, and there were many spring-born animals on the mountain.

Occasionally, you can see one or two small rabbits on the mountain, which are very cute and fluffy.

But the little guy is timid and runs very fast, often passing by in a flash.

Tangshan and Ye Qingqing had more and more prey in their hands, except for the two hares and two pheasants that Tang Xiaojing shot.

Rhubarb also caught two pheasants, one male and one female.

Xiao Huang was even better, catching two plump gray rabbits and a pheasant.

Tang Xiaojing originally planned to hunt some pheasants and hares as rewards for Rhubarb and Xiaohuang.

Unexpectedly, Rhubarb and Xiaohuang were so powerful that they could not finish the pheasants and rabbits they hunted.

Ye Qingqing took the fat rabbit from Dahuang's mouth and said cheerfully:

"Dahuang and Xiaohuang are really good. I'll cook you chickens in the evening, one for each dog."

When they arrived, each of the three of them carried a basket on their backs. The basket behind Tang Xiaojing was filled with herbs, while the baskets behind Tang Shan and Ye Qingqing were filled with various mushrooms.

There was nothing to pack the pheasants and rabbits that we had hunted, so we had to carry them down.

When going down the mountain, everyone was carrying two or three hares or pheasants in their hands.

When the three of them went down to the foot of the mountain, they happened to meet a long-term worker at home, and Tang Xiaojing gave one of the fat rabbits on his hand.

"The harvest is good today, this rabbit will give everyone an extra meal at night."

"Thank you, boss!" The long-term worker took the fat rabbit with a smile.

The pheasants and hares on the mountain don't cost money, and they don't need to be taken care of. The Tang family usually allows their long-term workers to hunt pheasants and hares for food.

Therefore, these long-term workers in the family work very hard, and they work for several years.

Before coming out of the small valley, Tang Xiaojing had already packed up the basket behind him. Dendrobium and Polygonatum were hidden under the basket, and some ordinary herbs were on top.

Therefore, Tang Xiaojing also carried the herbs on his back generously.

Back on the bullock cart, Da Huang and Xiao Huang were exhausted and lay obediently in the carriage.
