"Zhou Yao! Look! Ginseng! Hahaha... we really encountered ginseng." Xu Youyou shouted excitedly.
I thought that was all I got today.
Zhou Yao followed the direction of her finger and saw two ginseng trees. They looked quite old, and the head was as big as his thumb.
Looking at the excited Xu Youyou, Zhou Yao put his fingers to his mouth and made a quiet gesture.
Xu Youyou quickly covered her mouth.
Yes, you can’t make this matter public, you have to make a fortune secretly.
"Dig, dig quickly."
Xu Youyou handed the hoe to Zhou Yao again.
Sitting aside and watching the scenery.
From time to time, he fanned Zhou Yao with a straw hat.
The man lay on the ground and dug the soil carefully, using a hoe to avoid damaging the ginseng roots.
So he used a sickle to cut off a small wooden stick, sharpened it, and then dug it up slowly.
Zhou Yao also dug ginseng several times before, so he still has experience.
But it took a long time to dig.
The two ginsengs are about the same size, as big as Zhou Yao’s thumb. The roots are well preserved and quite long.
"There is also a small ginseng tree." Zhou Yao said.
Looking at the small tree, Zhou Yao frowned and did not plan to dig it. It was too small and not very valuable.
Xu Youyou happily held two large ginseng trees and waved her hand, "Don't dig that one, just leave it and let it grow."
Don't be too greedy, although nature The gifts are inexhaustible.
But Xu Youyou still can't do anything with things that are too small, so she keeps the seeds for a long time.
The two returned home with a full load and caught a hare when they went down the mountain.
When I got home, the people in the fields had finished work and were cooking at home.
Wisps of cooking smoke rise from the chimneys of every house, and the aroma of rice wafts everywhere.
After school, the children were playing and making noise on the road. It was not until the old lady at home roared like a lion in Hedong that she reluctantly went home for dinner.
As soon as Xu Youyou and Zhou Yao arrived at the door of their house, they saw a staggering woman running on the road not far away, shouting for help as they walked.
"Zhou Yao, look, did something happen?" Xu Youyou asked.
The woman's hair was disheveled and her face was dirty. She couldn't see her appearance clearly, and she didn't know which family in the brigade she was from.
"Let's put down our things in the house first." Zhou Yao pulled her into the house and then locked the door.
As soon as the two put down their backpacks, the door outside the house was knocked.
A miserable cry followed.
"Help! The Zhou family, helpSave me! I am Zhao Hong..."
"Xu Youyou, please, please open the door and let me in. "
"Open the door quickly! I saw you just now, I know you are at home! "
There was a banging sound on the outside door, and the screams were very harsh.
The three little ones in the room were frightened and woke up just after they fell asleep, and they cried loudly. Get up.
Mother Zhou wanted to go out and see who it was, but when she heard her grandchildren crying, she dropped the spatula and went in.
Xu Youyou and Zhou Yao went in. The two of them also returned to the house.
“Zhao Hong? Why does the name sound so familiar? "Xu Youyou picked up the third child and muttered.
The three children were also good. When they saw an adult coming, they knew they were safe and stopped crying quickly.
The third child was holding on to her mother’s clothes, with tears and runny eyes running down her face.
Zhou’s mother thought for a moment and said, “Could it be Chen Xiuhua’s sister-in-law? "
"Is it her? "Xu Youyou remembered, "We have nothing to do with their family anymore, what is she doing here? "
After a while, the sound outside stopped, but an angry male voice sounded.
"I want you to run! See if I don’t beat you to death! Are you still running? "
After saying that, he slapped Zhao Hong several times, until her face was swollen. After the beating, he still couldn't get over his anger, so he punched and kicked her again.
Around The neighbors came out when they heard the noise.
It seemed that they were from nearby villages. Some people saw that the woman was beaten so badly that they couldn't help but offer some words of advice.
"What does it have to do with you? I beat my own wife and I want you to take care of me, so get out! ”
Boss Chen’s face was hideous and terrifying.

Zhao Hong curled up on the ground and shivered.
Xu Youyou didn’t want them to make trouble in front of her house, making a lot of noise, scaring the children, and making the adults feel bad.
Boss Chen looked angry at Zhao Hong who dared to escape. He added two more feet.
With a creak, the door was opened.
Boss Chen turned around, and there was a "swish" sound, and he was caught before he could see who it was. Kicked out.
Writhing on the floor in pain
"You two should go home and settle the matter. If you don't want to get into trouble, don't make trouble in front of my door!" "
Zhou Yao said coldly.
When Boss Chen saw Zhou Yao's cold-faced face, his heart trembled, and he suddenly withered. How could he still have the same expression as before?
Who doesn’t know that Zhou Yao is now the director of the County Public Security Bureau?
Others said that he might not be able to join the bureau, but Zhou Yao said that he would not be able to join in the morning. Let him come in the afternoon.
"Okay, okay, let's go home. "Boss Chen responded in a low voice.Go and pull Zhao Hong.
"I don't! I don't want to go back, save me, Director Zhou, save me, I will be beaten to death by him when I go back... Wuwuwu..."
"Save me, Please, I was sorry for you before, I know I was wrong, wuwuwu..."
Zhao Hong cried so hard that she stretched out her hands to pull Zhou Yao away.
Zhou Yao took a step back, glanced at Boss Chen who was just submissive and had beaten someone to death, and said sternly.
"This is a family conflict, but domestic violence is also illegal. I will notify people from the commune women's federation to come to mediate. If necessary, you can also report it to the police. Let's go."
< p> Although Zhou Yao didn't want to get involved in their family's troubles, as the chief of public security, this happened at his doorstep, so he still had to say something.When Boss Chen heard about the Women's Federation and the Public Security Bureau, his face turned pale. He knew that this woman came over to call for help because Zhou Yao was the director of the Public Security Bureau.
So he pulled Zhao Hong's hand harder, as if he wanted to strangle her to death.
The two of them walked away.
Everyone looked at it with a sigh of relief, and then dispersed.
But what happened to the Chen family in the next village has been spreading for a while. Today, when I saw Boss Chen chasing people and beating up their team, they all felt that Zhao Hong was a little miserable.
Zhou Yao went back to the house to look at his children and wife, then turned and went to the brigade headquarters.
As soon as Xu Youyou took the two ginseng trees into the house and hid them, Wang Meijun came over.
"Yuyou, Mom, are you okay?"
"I just heard that the Chen family came to your door to fight, so I was worried and came over to take a look."
p>
Wang Meijun had just finished cooking and letting Dashan Dahe eat it. When she heard people passing by saying that someone was fighting here, she came over.
"It's okay, Zhou Yao has solved it." Xu Youyou smiled.
"That's good, then the Chen family are beasts, and Zhao Hong is also quite miserable." Wang Meijun sighed.
Xu Youyou raised her eyebrows. She didn't pay attention to the Chen family's affairs. If Zhao Hong hadn't made a fuss today, she would have forgotten that the Chen family was a top family.
"Sister-in-law, come in and have a drink of water and have a rest."
"No, Dashan Dahe is eating at home. I'm going back too. Mom, I'm going back." Wang Meijun said hello He turned around and ran away.
"You walk slower, don't run so fast." Mother Zhou reminded her with concern.
"Okay!"
Mother Zhou continued to cook, and Xu Youyou took out the bamboo sieve and wiped the dust off.
Pour the wolfberries and astragalus in the basket one by one into the bamboo sieve and spread them out to dry.
Zhou Yao called the Commune Women’s Federation and came back for dinner.
In the afternoon, Wang Meijun and Wen Yunong took a break and came over to chat with Xu Youyou.
In the morning, Xu Youyou and Zhou Yao picked a lot of Sophora japonica flowers on the mountain. Zhou's mother was washing the Sophora japonica flowers at the moment.
When Wang Meijun and his two friends came over and saw so many locust trees, their eyes lit up. Within a few days, all the locust trees in the village were picked up.
"These sophora flowers grow so well, where were they picked?" Wen Yunong asked.
Xu Youyou smiled and said: "I saw them picked on the mountain this morning."
Mother Zhou called them to make sophora flower buns together later.
Wang Meijun and Wen Yunong said hello, and then followed Xu Youyou into the room to chat.
Zhou Yao left the east room very wisely. When the water tank at home was out of water, he went to fetch water, and when the firewood was out, he chopped firewood.
Anyway, I just can’t stay idle and am busy outside.
