Chapter 5

When Liu Zhimo saw a large patch of fresh mushrooms, the fatigue on his body was completely swept away. He walked to Li Qingling's side and asked her, which hair pit were edible?

"Tomorrow is the market time, I'm going to go to town." His copy of the book was ready, and he wanted to take it back to Shopkeeper Xing.

He was extremely tired even when carrying empty baskets on his back. He was very worried when he went back to carry such a heavy basket.

He remembered his father asking him before he pa.s.sed away, was he willing to be married to Li Qingling?

At that time, he had guessed his father's intentions, which was to find a backer for the three siblings.

Therefore, he did not have much of an opinion on the matter, and immediately nodded his head. However, he had watched his parents love each other ever since he was young, and had thought of marrying a woman who could read books in the future. But in reality, that was not the case, and he could not help but feel some regret in his heart.

At this moment, there was no longer that kind of regret in his heart. He felt that having a wife who could support and care for him was also very good!

"Hm?" Li Qingling suddenly put down the basket on her back, ran under a tree and squatted down. What was he planning to do? Ask her what's wrong?

She didn't answer him, she dug with her hands, he couldn't, so he walked over to her and saw that she was digging a blade of gra.s.s.

Hearing that, Liu Zhimo could only retract his hand, and stay at the side as he carefully dug. After a good fifteen minutes had pa.s.sed, she finally dug out the wild gra.s.s excitedly.

"Look, it's a wild ginseng." She held the ginseng up to him. "I'm lucky today."

Although she was only twenty years old, she was still worth a bit of money. Tomorrow, she would be able to sell it in town, and once she sold the money, she would be able to buy some oil and rice to eat at home.

It was indeed a ginseng. Previously, when his parents were ill, he had bought one for them to eat. However …

Li Qingling carefully placed the Barbarian Ginseng into the basket on his back before replying, "I used to go hunting with my father, he taught me." As he said that, he picked up a few pine needle leaves and covered them, and even covered Liu Zhimo's basket. This way, if someone saw them, they would think that they were carrying pine needle leaves, and would definitely not think that there was a mushroom underneath the basket.

Liu Zhimo was completely convinced by Li Qingling's words. Uncle Li was indeed a good hunter, he would go up the mountain often, it wasn't strange for him to know some medicinal herbs.

Li Qingling's eyes flashed with disgust, he called out to Aunt, and dodged her hand, "I hugged onto some pine needle leaves."

Lin s.h.i.+'s dissatisfaction flashed, she stretched her head out and took a glance, and it was indeed pine needle leaves. She curled her lips, and in the blink of an eye, she vaguely looked at Liu Zhimo.

Li Qingling hated Lin s.h.i.+'s gossipy face the most, hence she was the one who liked to gossip about in the village the most. Now that she was seen with Liu Zhimo, when they turned back to look, she could see his shameless gossips everywhere in the village.

Although she did not really care about those words, Mrs. Zhao did.

Li Baoyu was her big cousin, fat and lazy, and he ate a lot, so he didn't fail to live up to her name, 'Pig'. She was 15 this year, and still hadn't gotten married yet.

"What do you mean by 'looking at the future generations'? Don't speak nonsense and ruin the reputation of the pearl." Lin s.h.i.+ reprimanded Li Qingling loudly.

"You heard wrong, that's all." Lin s.h.i.+ interrupted Li Qingling's words again loudly. She turned around, picked up a load of firewood, and quickly walked down the mountain.

Li Qingling looked at Liu Zhimo who was smiling at her, shrugged his shoulders and innocently said: "For people like her, you have to be like this, otherwise she would not know pain."

Liu Zhimo smiled and said that he had learnt it.

Li Qingling: "..."

After returning home, the moment Li Qingling saw Mrs. Zhao, he pulled her inside the house. He pulled open the pine needle leaves, and carefully took out the Barbarian Ginseng.

After eating mushrooms for a few days, she felt a little afraid of what she was eating. She desperately needed some rice to change the taste.

Then, he looked at Mrs. Zhao's stomach. If it was sold well, he would have to buy some meat to nourish the baby.

Mrs. Zhao looked at the wild ginseng in surprise, then looked at Li Qingling, "Your luck is really good, you dug this up, and since you dug it up, you make the decision yourself!"

"Wah, Sis, you're so amazing." Li Qingfeng raised his head and looked at Li Qingling with admiration, "Sis, are you really going to town tomorrow?"

The desire in Li Qingfeng's eyes was so obvious, it was impossible for his to not see it. He thought for a moment, then, other than selling wild ginsenghee would go to the town tomorrow to see if there was anything else he could earn money for. There should not be a problem bringing him along, so she satisfied him, "Tomorrow morning, if you can crawl back up, I will bring you there."

Just as she finished speaking, Li Qingfeng rushed over happily, and hugged her neck tightly, "Sis, thank you, I will definitely wake up early."

But Mrs. Zhao was a little worried, "Why don't we leave first, there will be a lot of people in the town, it's pretty chaotic."

Li Qingfeng's face fell. He was afraid that Li Qingling wouldn't bring him with him after hearing Mrs. Zhao's words, so he hurriedly said, "Sis, I'll obediently follow you. I promise I won't run around, just take me there!"

"I didn't say that I won't take you with me!" Li Qing Ling cast a glance at him, raised her head and comforted Mrs. Zhao: "Mother, don't worry, Zhi Moge and I will definitely pull Xiao Feng closer."

"Mother …" Li Qingfeng pulled Mrs. Zhao's hand again, and called her as if she was acting spoiled.

Mrs. Zhao thought of having the ink, so she could only nod her head. Li Qingfeng became happy again.

It was only Li Qingling who threatened him to hurry up and sleep. If he didn't sleep, she wouldn't bring him along, and only then did he obediently shut his mouth and go to sleep. When he reached Yin He, he woke up automatically and even tried to wake Li Qingling up.

He blinked and said Dad used to get up so early to go to the market.

She exhaled, reached out to cover his eyes, letting him continue sleeping, and waited for Zhi Moge to wake him up.

"If you don't want to sleep, then I won't bring you." Li Qingling could only use this call to threaten her. She was currently very tired and didn't have the energy to deal with him.

Li Qingfeng pouted, aggrieved, "Alright then!"

came to her house to call her after a short sleep. She was still blurry, but Li Qingfeng crawled up and answered loudly. Then he reached out his hand to push Li Qingling away.

"Sis, sis, Zhi Moge is here, quickly get up."

This devilish brat …

Li Qingling sighed, and resigned himself to his fate and got up. To go to town, he would need to wake up in the middle of the night, it was not easy.

She combed her hair, ran out to quickly wash up, wrapped the wild man with a handkerchief, and put him into her sleeves. After putting the basket on her back, she was exhorted by Mrs. Zhao who had just woken up, and then brought Li Qingfeng to follow Liu Zhimo to the town.

Being able to endure for four hours was already very good, Li Qingling did not force him, and let him enter the basket, then carried him away.

When Liu Zhimo saw Li Qingling's small body, he suggested that he carry Li Qingfeng. This time, Li Qingling rejected him, "It's okay, I'll carry him.

Li Qingling acknowledged his presence, but he did not call him tired along the way. Liu Zhimo was afraid that she would try to force him, but even she told him not to.

Although she was small, she was used to farming since she was young. With Li Qingfeng's weight, it really wasn't a problem for her.

When they arrived at the entrance of Mao An Town, Li Qingling put down the basket and shook Li Qingfeng who had already slept for two hours: "Xiao Feng, wake up, we are in town."
