Chapter 104: Chapter 104 Treat it All as Grass Chapter 104: Chapter 104 Treat it All as Grass Er Dan looked at these few sheets of paper, these leaves, they seed familiar from the mountains.
“Do you have a knife?”
“Yes, got one when we divided the household.”
Er Dan then turned to Xiaoxiao, “Sister-in-law, thanks a lot.”
“No need, no need. You go, be careful in the mountains, and if you encounter a wild boar, climb a tree imdiately.”
Er Dan knew this.
He left with a few sheets of drawings.
After returning ho, he carried a basket on his back and went into the mountains to look for the kudzu that his sister-in-law talked about.
It must be said, there really was kudzu vine, but there were too many vines, it took half a day to find the main vine; Er Dan quickly started to dig it out, and seeing that the roots were not small, he dug even faster.
Er Dan wandered around in the mountains for a bit and dug up a basketful of kudzu roots.
Not feeling reassured, he took a kudzu root to ask his sister-in-law how to process it into sothing like flour.
“Sister-in-law, are you ho?”
Xiaoxiao and her family were having dinner when they suddenly heard soone knocking at the door, and it was Er Dan’s voice.
“The door isn’t locked, co on in!”
Er Dan pushed open the door, his eyes landing on the family sitting in the hall.
“Third Brother, sister-in-law, Da Bao, Xiao Bao.”
Xiaoxiao, seeing him holding a root, knew why he had co.
“Er Dan, co over here!”
Er Dan was about to leave; how did he end up crashing Third Brother’s family dinner.
“Da Bao, go get another bowl….”
Xiao Bao shrank from the bench and scurried to the kitchen to get the bowl and chopsticks.
“This root, this kudzu root, peel off the outer skin, then slice it, crush it, filter it through a cloth, let it settle overnight, then pour off the dirty water on top the next morning. If the sedint below is still yellow and not white, it needs to be washed again.”
This root can be eaten?
Zhao Tianlei was baffled.
“Xiaoxiao, what is this root?”
“Kudzu, once Er Dan has made it, we can trade so with him.”
Kudzu?
So this is kudzu?
They have this in their mountains?
“Er Dan, co eat with us, and then you owe so when you’ve made it,” Zhao Tianlei said, pulling Er Dan to join them for the al.
Er Dan wanted to refuse, but Da Bao had already placed a bowl and a pair of chopsticks in his hands.
“Just eat a little.”
Er Dan thought that when he made it, he didn’t need to trade; he would just bring so directly to his sister-in-law.
“Sister-in-law, I only found this kudzu, I couldn’t find any yam.”
“We’ll prepare whatever we find. Actually, there are so other dicinal herbs in the mountains, but I only know a few. Otherwise, you often roam in the mountains, you could take them to the pharmacy to see.”
There are dicinal herbs in the mountains?
And they can be sold for money?
Er Dan really didn’t know this.
Although there was a doctor in the brigade, his herbs were also dug from the mountains but all dried and cut into pieces; how were they to know which were herbs and which were just grass?
They had always considered them all as grass.
“Sister-in-law, having food to eat is good enough.”
As for earning money, he wasn’t in a hurry.
Being full and not starving to death was enough.
“Mom, we’ll go to town in a bit, you can go out to play or stay ho to read with your brother.”
Mom’s going to town to buy so tasty treats?
“Educated Youth Yun, we should get going.”
A voice ca from outside, it was little sister-in-law’s.
“Sister-in-law, coming.”
Xiaoxiao left a ssage, “If you’re hungry, just make so formula milk and there are also cookies.”
Xiaoxiao, carrying a basket on her back, planned to go to town today to buy more stuff.
She wanted to buy a couple of vests, cotton-padded jackets, long underwear, and wool clothes for the little ones.
