The happy little days of the Ye family

The father and son had a very good harvest today, and the backpacks behind them were filled with various valuable herbs.

In fact, there are many herbs that can be picked on the mountain, but Tang Xiaojing wants to keep them for a few more years. The longer the herbs are, the more valuable they will be.

Seeing that the sun was almost setting on the top of the mountain, the father and son were ready to go home.

Tang Xiaojing shouted loudly. "Dahuang and Xiaohuang are home!"

"Ow ooh..."

"Ow ooh..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the excited voices of Dahuang and Xiaohuang were heard not far away.

After a while, there was a sound of footsteps, and suddenly two dogs emerged from the grass.

Xiao Huang held two pheasant eggs in his mouth, and two pheasant feathers were stuck to his mouth.

It looks like the pheasant should have escaped, but the chicken has escaped and there are still pheasant eggs.

Tang Xiaojing happily took the egg and patted Xiao Huang's big head with his other free hand.

"Our Xiao Huang is awesome!"

Xiao Huang's eyes narrowed with joy, and he was wagging his big tail behind him desperately, looking very proud.

Rhubarb on the side was holding a gray rabbit in his mouth. It was quite fat, weighing at least 6 pounds.

Pheasants can fly and are difficult to catch, but hares running in the field cannot escape.

The hare was bitten by rhubarb and bled, but it was still alive and struggling desperately.

Tangshan pulled out a few thin vines and tied up the hare in a few clicks.

"Yes, yes, every dog ​​will be rewarded with a rabbit leg in the evening."

"Ouch!"

"Ouch!"

When they heard that there were rabbit legs, the two dogs were very excited, and their big tails behind them were wagging so much that they almost became afterimages.

The two of them walked down the mountain with smiles on their faces.

Even though the sun was going down, it was still very hot. The clothes on the father and son got wet several times, making them sticky and uncomfortable.

Walking halfway up the mountain, Tang Xiaojing remembered the nearby spring and wanted to wash his face.

When I walked to the edge of the puddle, all the lotus flowers inside were in bloom, each one swaying gently in the breeze, and there was still a burst of floral fragrance in the air.

Tang Xiaojing saw the lotus flowers in the puddle blooming just right, and couldn't help but muttered:

"The lotus flowers are blooming so beautifully. I'm not busy now. I just want to bring Qingqing over to see the lotus flowers tomorrow."

Ever since she learned that she could express her milk in advance, Ye Qingqing felt much more free.

Express your milk before going out, so you don't have to worry about your little one going hungry.

Tang Xiaojing thought that Ye Qingqing had not gone up the mountain for a long time, so he happened to bring her over to see the lotus flowers. She must like these lotus flowers.

As for Chenchen, the little guy is still young, so he has to stay at home.

Tangshan smiled and said: "Okay, hasn't Qingqing been thinking about the herbs in the Stone Valley? I'll just stop by there tomorrow to have a look."

The father and son had not been there for several months, and Tangshan also wanted to see the wild ginseng in the Stone Valley.

Moreover, in addition to wild ginseng, there are also many medicinal herbs in it, all of which are grown by Tangshan’s own hands.

On the way down the mountain, the father and son took a look at the sweet potatoes that had just been planted some time ago.

The soil on the mountain is not fertile enough and there are many weeds. The sweet potatoes do not grow as well as those in the field.

Many of them have dried up. Tang Xiaojing estimated that only about 70% of them are alive.

However, the father and son are also satisfied. After all, there is no need to take care of these sweet potatoes on the mountain. What they grow is basically what they earn.

When the two returned home, Ye Qingqing was cooking in the kitchen.

She moved the small bed with a fence to the door of the kitchen, and Chenchen was sleeping in it wearing a bright red bellyband.

This little bellyband was made for him by Ye Qingqing a few days ago. It also had two golden gold ingots specially embroidered on the chest. It was quite cute.

The white and tender little guy looks particularly energetic and lovable when he wears a bright red bellyband.

Seeing this made the father and son feel weak and wished they could hold him in their arms and kiss him twice.

Heidou and Xiaohua were lying on both sides of the crib. When they heard the sound, they immediately sat up vigilantly. When they saw it was Tang Xiaojing and Tang Shan, they lay back obediently.

Tang Xiaojing squatted down, rubbed Heidou and Xiaohua's big furry heads, and said with a cheerful smile:

"Heidou and Xiaohua are so good, and they even know how to protect their master."

"We're back. How do the herbs on the mountain look like?" Ye Qingqing's crisp voice came from the kitchen.

Tang Xiaojing smiled and talked about the situation on the mountain.

"It's pretty good. It looks a little taller than before the summer harvest. The seedlings that were interrupted by the rain have also sprouted new buds."

"Dad and I also collected a lot of herbs that can be used as medicine. Rhubarb also caught a hare and made braised rabbit in the evening."

"Okay, you take a rest first and clean up the hare later. It's a little late. Try to chop the hare as small as possible."

"okay!"

Tang Xiaojing walked in the mountains for a day. His body was covered with sweat and he was too dirty to hold his child.

He had no choice but to continue rubbing the dogs at home, but his eyes were always staring at Chenchen on the small bed.

Tang Shan, who had just washed his hands, also came over. The father and son stared at the little guy intently.

As if sensing the fiery eyes of the father and son, the little guy frowned, then turned over and fell asleep on his side, pointing his butt towards the two of them.

The father and son walked to the other side of the crib and continued to stare at the little guy and giggle.

Chenchen chirped twice, then put his thumb into his mouth and nibbled it with relish. It looked quite funny.

Tang Xiaojing noticed that his son had this habit recently, and turned to look at Ye Qingqing in the kitchen.

"Chenchen seems to like sucking her fingers these past two days. Do you have teeth?"

"Yes, two little teeth the size of rice grains have just grown." The little guy drinks milk every day. Ye Qingqing knows best whether he has teeth or not.

Hearing the voice, Chenchen opened his eyes drowsily.

"Yeah ah..."

The little guy patted the small bed twice, as if he was very dissatisfied with Tang Xiaojing for disturbing his dream.

Before he could express any more meaning, he was hugged out by Tang Shan on the side.

"Chenchen, do you miss grandpa?"

Seeing that it was getting late, Tang Xiaojing quickly took the hare to the backyard to deal with it.

By the time we had dinner, it was already dark.

But looking at a big pot of fragrant braised rabbit, everyone was happy.

Even the four dogs' rice bowls were filled with meat, and the rice was mixed with oily broth.

They eat rhubarb so deliciously that they even look down on the bones dropped from Tangshan.

"I'm quite picky about food, I can't even look at the bones."

In the evening, Tang Xiaojing told Ye Qingqing that he would take her to the mountains to see lotus flowers tomorrow.

"Okay, okay, I was just wondering what kind of embroidery pattern to use next time, and I just happened to draw a picture of lotus."

Ye Qingqing finished the first embroidery picture she made in Yuezi yesterday and is thinking of new embroidery pictures.

"Now that the lotus flowers are here, will we be able to eat home-grown lotus roots by the end of that year?"

Ye Qingqing is a glutton and is more interested in lotus roots than beautiful lotus flowers.

Tang Xiaojing smiled and said, "In addition to lotus roots, there are also lotus seeds. You can also pick lotus pods later."

Hearing this, Ye Qingqing became even more happy.

Tang Xiaojing hugged Ye Qingqing from behind, and then said:

"Dad also wants to go to Stone Valley tomorrow to see the herbs in it. Let's rest early."

Speaking of the herbs in the small valley, Ye Qingqing became even more excited. As soon as he raised his head, he was kissed by Tang Xiaojing.

"It's late at night, it's time to rest."
