Peasant girl farming: I did beauty in ancient times

Chapter 35 Digging Shepherd's Purse

"What's in your backpack?"

Lin Yuehua was shocked, this was the first time that Zhao Yunting took the initiative to talk to her.

"It's shepherd's purse, don't you know shepherd's purse?"

Zhao Yunting was a little embarrassed: "I can't tell the difference between green leafy vegetables and the like."

"It's okay if you can't tell the difference. I'll use the shepherd's purse I picked later to make dumplings for you to try." Lin Yuehua promised boldly.

Zhao Yunting raised his eyebrows, seeing that Lin Yuehua didn't seem to be cheating, he felt a little bit of joy in his heart, thinking of the lo mei that Lin Yuehua gave before, it was delicious!The shepherd's purse dumplings must be delicious!

At the gate of Lin Yuehua's house, Zhao Yunting said, "I'll dig some of this shepherd's purse too, and make dumplings for you."

After Zhao Yunting finished speaking and left, Lin Yuehua shouted loudly: "Hey, do you know where to dig? In the field, don't dig up the weeds."

Seeing Zhao Yunting's footsteps paused, Lin Yuehua smiled.

"Xiu'er, you sleep with me at night, don't be afraid, my sister is fine." Erya Lin took Zhang Xiu'er's hand and whispered to her.

Zhang Xiu'er's eyes were timid, and she didn't sit or stand when she came to Lin's house, and she didn't dare to move her chopsticks when it was time to eat.

Lin Yuehua saw it, sighed in her heart, picked up a chopstick dish for Zhang Xiu'er, and said, "Try the chicken I made, stewed with mushrooms, it's so soft, Erya Dahu likes it very much, You try too."

For Lin Yuehua's kindness, Zhang Xiu'er's eyes were moist all of a sudden, she smiled and thanked Lin Yuehua with tears in her eyes: "Thank you, sister."

"Good boy, eat more." Regarding the extra pair of chopsticks, Lin Yuehua could only keep Zhang Xiu'er for one night.

The next day, Lin Yuehua continued to dig shepherd's purse, and Zhang Xiu'er insisted on helping to dig shepherd's purse after learning about it.

"Xiu'er, I won't let you dig for nothing. I'll give you a penny for every day you dig."

"Big girl, I don't want money, I just want to help you."

After a bit of procrastination, Lin Yuehua insisted on giving a penny to Zhang Xiuer, but Zhang Xiuer couldn't help it, so she decided to find some more shepherd's purse for the eldest sister.

Lin Yuehua thought of a way to ask the children in the village to help, and would give a piece of candy if they dug three catties. Sure enough, after such a publicity, more than ten children came here in a short time.

"Dahu, take them to be safe!"

"Elder sister, don't worry!"

"Come with me, everyone. If one person digs three catties, there will be one candy!" Lin Dahu yelled, followed by a bunch of radish heads.

The allure of this candy should not be underestimated. More than 20 candies were distributed in one afternoon, and a large group of children swept up the barren fields in the neighboring village.

Lin Yuehua dug for three days, and with the shepherd's purse dug up by these radish heads, there would be a hundred catties of shepherd's purse in no time.

"Big sister! Do you want to dig shepherd's purse tomorrow? I'll come!" A little girl was so excited with two candies in her hand.

"I don't need it tomorrow! We already have enough shepherd's purse at home." Lin Yuehua spoke softly to the child.

Although there was a hint of disappointment in the little girl's eyes, she still said goodbye happily: "Sister Big Girl, if you want to help next time, I'll come again. See you later, sister."

After collecting all the shepherd's purses, Lin Yuehua weighed them on a steelyard, and the total was 97 catties.

"It's still three catties short!" Lin Yuehua looked at the sky and it was still dark.

Lin Yuehua, who was about to go out to find some more shepherd's purse, bumped into Zhao Yunting who was coming.

"Here, big girl, this is the shepherd's purse I dug up."

Zhao Yunting handed Lin Yuehua a basket. He had always had an iceberg face, but now there was a trace of expression on his face, and there was a hint of complacency in his eyes.
