The happy little days of the Ye family

Ye Xilin rolled several times on a small slope, and then fell into a large pit.

This large pit was obviously an abandoned trap, with some sharpened bamboo at the bottom.

Fortunately, the trap was old and most of the bamboos were rotten. In addition, there were many dead branches and leaves at the bottom of the pit as a buffer, so Ye Xilin was not seriously injured.

However, many places on his body were hit, and Ye Xilin felt pain everywhere in his body.

At this time, an anxious voice came from above Ye Xilin:

"Xilin, how are you? Are you injured?"

Ye Xilin felt pain all over his body and slowly sat up with his teeth bared.

When I rolled up my trouser legs and sleeves, I found that my body was covered in bruises of various sizes, but luckily they were all skin injuries.

Ye Xilin raised his head and shouted outside:

"Guo'er, I'm fine. There are dead branches and leaves down there, and I'm not seriously injured. I'll come up right now."

Putting his trouser legs down, Ye Xilin noticed from the corner of his eye several morels in the corner.

Taking a closer look, there is a large nest of morels on the edge, one next to another, and they are quite big.

Ye Xilin didn't care whether it hurt or not, and his face immediately lit up with joy.

"I didn't expect there was a treasure hidden in this pit, and the sin just now was not in vain. Hahaha, I didn't expect it to be a blessing in disguise."

"What treasure? Is it wild ginseng?" As soon as Li Guoer heard about the treasure, she immediately thought of wild ginseng.

"Guo'er, you're pretty smart. It's a big nest of morels. Pass the basket to me and I'll pick them all."

When Ye Xilin rolled down just now, the backpack and everything inside fell out.

"Morels are also good, they are delicious when used to make soup."

Thinking of the delicious morels, Li Guoer was in a particularly good mood and directly handed the basket behind her to Ye Xilin.

There are pheasants on the mountain, and Li Guoer plans to catch two when he goes down the mountain later to make mushroom chicken soup.

No one usually comes down from this big pit, and the morels are as big as Ye Xilin’s fist.

No one knows when he will go into the mountains next time. Ye Xilin picked all the delicious mushrooms, even the flower bones.

These morels were so big that half a basket full of them were collected.

Ye Xilin took the backpack in his hand and weighed it. It should weigh about two kilograms.

After picking morels, Ye Xilin was able to look into this big pit.

The bottom is full of dead branches and leaves, and the bottom is bamboo from the previous hunter, but basically all of it is rotten.

After standing up, Ye Xilin found that the pit was quite big, and he could just stretch his arms out.

The pit was about the same height as him, and Ye Xilin could just see Li Guoer's feet when he raised his head.

It is surrounded by smooth earth walls, and it is really difficult to climb up by yourself.

At this time, Li Guoer had already picked up the backpack that Ye Xilin had just dropped and all the things inside.

Li Guoer saw that Ye Xilin had picked all the fungi and stretched out her hand towards him:

"Ms. sir, hand me the backpack and I'll pull you up."

Li Guoer could easily carry a wild boar weighing more than 200 kilograms back from the mountain.

It was no big deal for Li Guoer to pull Ye Xilin, who weighed more than 100 kilograms, out of the pit.

"Okay, that's the reward for your hard work."

It was cold and damp inside this big pit, and Ye Xilin didn't want to stay in it at all.

Lowering his head and lifting up the backpack at his feet, Ye Xilin suddenly discovered a plant with small red fruits in the corner.

Looking at these small blood-red fruits in front of him, Ye Xilin's eyes widened.

"This, this little red fruit, could it be wild ginseng?"

"Wild ginseng!!! Is there wild ginseng down there?"

When I heard about wild ginseng, Li Guoer couldn't wait any longer. Without waiting for Ye Xilin's response, he quickly pulled out a large bundle of hemp rope from his backpack.

One end was tied to a tree trunk that was bigger and thicker than a bucket, and the other end was thrown into the big pit.

Then he grabbed the rope and jumped into the pit.

Seeing Li Guoer come down, Ye Xilin quickly pointed to an unknown plant in the corner as if he had found a backbone.

"Guo'er, look quickly, is this wild ginseng?"

Although the pit was a bit dark, Li Guoer had a good eye and could tell at a glance that it was a wild ginseng tree of good vintage.

Li Guoer was very excited and immediately took a closer look at the leaves and branches of the wild ginseng. She turned back to Ye Xilin happily:

"This wild ginseng tree is at least fifteen years old. No wonder my mother and grandma said you were born with wealth. You found wild ginseng the first time you went into the mountains. You are so lucky."

Ye Xilin grinned and squatted down beside him, asking curiously:

"I heard that wild ginseng can escape from the ground. Before digging ginseng, you must tie a red rope, otherwise it will run away on its own. Is this true?"

Hearing such outrageous words, Li Guoer was amused and burst out laughing.

"It's not that mysterious. Wild ginseng is hard to come by. Sometimes if you come across it but you are too young to dig it, you will tie a red string on it."

"The main purpose is to mark it and let others know that this wild ginseng tree belongs to the owner. If others see the wild ginseng tied with a red rope, they will know that it was discovered by others first."

"In the village, if you see herbs tied with red strings, people generally won't dig them up. But this also depends on your character and conscience."

Li Guoer's statement was completely different from what was reported outside, but it sounded more true.

Ye Xilin looked like this:

"So that's it. I told you, how could a good wild ginseng escape? It's all because of people spreading rumors outside."

Then he started to get silly and happy again, "Hey, this wild ginseng tree obviously has no owner. We found it, so it belongs to us."

Li Guoer was also very happy. She reached behind her and touched her back, but found that she was so excited just now that she forgot to bring her backpack.

The small medicine hoe is still in the backpack above.

The two of them didn't bother to climb up, so they simply grabbed two relatively hard branches in the big pit.

Before digging wild ginseng, Li Guoer specifically warned:

"There are many roots growing on this wild ginseng. These roots must not be dug out. The more intact the wild ginseng is, the higher the price will be."

Ye Xilin did not dare to do anything at will, so he asked Li Guo'er to indicate the position for him, and then he carefully dug out the tree trunk.

The wild ginseng was not that big. After digging for half an hour, the two dug out a small human-shaped ginseng.

Ye Xilin was so excited when he looked at the wild ginseng that his eyes almost glued to it.

"Guo'er, how much can this wild ginseng tree cost?"

Li Guoer has also found a few wild ginseng trees in the mountains over the years, and she probably knows the price.

"Although this wild ginseng is not very old, its quality is not bad. How can it be sold for 20 taels of silver?"

"so much?"

My mother, how many pigs are there?

Ye Xilin felt like a fire was burning in his heart, and he wanted to dig up 10 and 8 of his wild ginseng trees right away.

Li Guoer ignored Ye Xilin, who was still enjoying himself, dug some moss in a shady place, and then wrapped the wild ginseng.

This can temporarily preserve the medicinal effect of wild ginseng. Every time Li Guoer finds wild ginseng, her father always asks her to keep it like this.

"Why are you dazed? Come up quickly."

Ye Xilin was dreaming of finding a century-old wild ginseng when he was suddenly woken up by Li Guoer.
