Chapter 126 Going up the mountain again
The two left from the gold and silver jewelry counter, and Lin Shu took Gu Jiu to the clock counter.
Gu Jiu glanced at the watch on Lin Shu's wrist and asked, "Do you want to change the watch?"
Lin Shu glanced at him and couldn't help laughing, and pointed. One of the men's watches was asked by the salesperson to take it out and look at it: "Please take this watch." Come on."
Gu Jiu lay on the counter, stretched out his wrist and shook it in front of Lin Shu's eyes, and said bluntly: "Look at the style of my watch. It is fashionable and simple. Are you sure this watch is worthy of my handsome appearance?”
Lin Shu was amused by his narcissistic tone and pushed his wrist away, "Stop being narcissistic. Why do you need to buy a watch if you already have one?"
"Then what are you doing?" Gu Jiu asked in confusion. She asked, pointing to the watch in her hand.
What Lin Shu was holding was a silver classic watch. It was not a big foreign brand, but a domestic old brand, Shanghai brand men's mechanical watch.
"You called my dad, the head of the family, to help you because you are lazy. Why don't I buy something to bribe him?"
Gu Jiu suddenly realized, "You are planning to give it to Dad?”
Lin Shu raised the watch on his hand, "Don't you men all like to wear watches? I thought that although my dad is old, he must be vulgar, so I gave him a watch so that they can tell the time."
" It must be sent." Gu Jiu supported.
It is inconvenient to check the store in the canteen without a watch. You can still estimate the time by looking at the sunshine on a sunny day, but it is difficult to estimate the time on a rainy day.
"What about our mom? You can't just give dad a gift and ignore mom, right?" Gu Jiu asked again.
He thought that his mother-in-law was very tired from helping to cook three meals a day for several people in the store, so he could not favor one thing over another.
"My mother?" Lin Shu rolled his eyes, looked at Gu Jiu, and asked, "What do you think would be a good gift for my mother?"
Gu Jiu licked his hair. He had no experience in giving things to his mother-in-law. , but when he saw the salesperson standing at the counter, his eyes lit up: "Tell me, what is the best gift to give? Give me some suggestions."
Salesperson He looked at Gu Jiu, then at Lin Shu, and after thinking for a while, he said, "Can the old lady know the time? If she can tell the time, it would be nice to give her a watch. If not, then give her gold and silver jewelry."
< br>The salesperson also saw that these two people were well-dressed and willing to spend money, so she firmly believed that they were worthy of money, otherwise she would have suggested that they buy a set of clothes.
The couple turned back and looked at the gold and silver jewelry counter next to them.
Gu Jiu snapped his fingers: "This is a good suggestion."
After that, he strode back.
Lin Shu handed the watch to the salesperson, "That's it, let's make a ticket."
Not long after, Gu Jiu came over with a ticket, and Lin Shu gave him the money. , let him pay.
The salesperson didn't even blink when they saw them buying such expensive things, and said with envy: "Did you spend a lot of money today?"
Lin Shu kept a polite smile, "It's okay."
"To be honest, I really envy you people who don't have to worry about money. You can buy whatever you want when you go to the mall without having to search. You think too much." The salesperson did not hide his envy.
Lin Shu looked at her outfit. She wore black trousers with a plaid top, and a good-quality shirt underneath. Her hair was combed meticulously, which showed that she was also a girl who loves beauty. "You have a good job too, Feng Chui No, you can’t catch the rain. I don’t know how many people outside envy you.”
The salesperson stroked the broken hair beside her ear with a sense of superiority, "You are right. Although the salary in our job is not high, it is better than ordinary workers in most factories. ”
Lin Shu nodded, and when he saw Gu Jiu coming over after paying, he quickly picked up his watch and pulled it out.
The two left the second floor, and Gu Jiu asked: "What did you just say to the saleswoman? Why do you feel like you are running away?"
"I didn't say anything, I just felt that she was a little showy. If you don't want to hear it, just leave quickly." Lin Shu also found it funny.
Back at the canteen, there were many people standing at the door buying things. Lin Shu saw many people buying rice, so he asked Lin Dashan: "Dad, what is selling the best these days?"< br>
"Food, seasonings, and daily necessities are all selling well." Lin Dashan happily asked for change.
Gu Jiu took his words and asked him to go back and rest for a while.
The store also had An Fan and Ding Zaichun helping out, so it was quite busy, so Lin Dashan followed Lin Shu into the old house.
Liu Xiao'e was sitting in the hall drinking tea. When she saw their father and daughter walking in, she asked with a smile: "Why are you here, alone?"
Lin Dashan sat down, Holding the pot and pouring two cups of tea, she said with a smile: "Brother Ninth came with her, and he is helping in front now."
"Mom and Dad, are you two still used to being here?"
Hearing this, Liu Xiao'e glanced at Lin Dashan, who was eating melon seeds, "If there's anything you're not used to, it's much easier here than at home. I just have to cook. I don't have to wait for pigs, chickens, ducks, etc., and I don't have to be annoyed by those children. Skull pain, you Dad only needs to collect money, and there are neighbors to chat with him. I don't know how comfortable my life is."
Lin Shu didn't know if what they said was perfunctory to her, and asked again: "Leave the family alone. It's a big deal, just let it go Heart?"
Liu Xiao'e looked straight, frowned and asked: "Hey, girl, what do you mean by saying this?"
"How can you? Ah, mainly because I'm afraid that you guys will stay in the city I'm not used to it. I'll be relieved if you can get used to it." Lin Shu saw her mother getting anxious and took out the gifts she bought for them from her bag, "Here, let's see what your son-in-law bought you."
< br>One small box per person.
A small box was forced into Lin Dashan's hand. When he saw the words on it, he couldn't wait to open it, "Is this for me?"
"Yes, one for each of you, do you like it?" "
Lin Dashan stretched his neck to see what Liu Xiao'e had in his hand, but he didn't want to take out a golden bracelet.
"Here, the youngest, these two gifts are too expensive, aren't they? Did Ninth Brother buy them?"
Lin Shu nodded sincerely: "Yes, he bought them as a filial piety. Yours.”
Before they could refuse, she stepped forward and grabbed Liu Xiao'e's wrist and put the gold bracelet on her wrist. "Don't refuse, my mother has worked hard all her life. Didn't she always envy others wearing gold and silver? This time With this gold bracelet, wear it back to the village. Who in the village will not envy you for having a good son-in-law? And dad, you have a watch to tell the time. You know what time the store opens and closes."
Lin Dashan happily put on his watch, "Okay, I'll accept it, maknae, is this the right time?"
"The time has been adjusted for you, you just need to remember to wind the chain every day." Seeing his happiness, Lin Shu and Liu Xiao'e looked at each other and smiled.
Liu Xiao'e stroked the bracelet on her wrist and said with a smile: "When your dad was young, what he envied most was the watches on the wrists of the cadres in the countryside."
As he said, he continued Remind Lin Dashan, "Now that your son-in-law has finally helped you realize it, you have to pay more attention to the store next time. Don't just chat with those retired old men."
After being exposed, Lin Dashan glared at Liu Xiao'e dissatisfiedly, "I didn't delay checking the store even if I was chatting, you are the only one who talks too much."
"Hey, you old man, you talk about Dashan every day, so I can't say anything about you."
Lin Shu couldn't help laughing and acted as peacemaker: "It's okay, as long as my dad is happy."
After comforting the two old men, Lin Shu tied the herbs that had been sent over the past two days to the bicycle. , went out and took a circle and put it into the system.
When she came back, she took a look at what was missing in the old house and asked Gu Jiu to deliver it the next time she came over. After the arrangements were made clear, the two of them returned home together.
"Looking at the sunset tomorrow, the weather should be clear and crisp. Let's go for a mountain run tomorrow?"
Gu Jiu's expression changed, "What do you mean? You want to run in the mountains even though you are pregnant? I don't even know about mountain running. How tiring, what should I do if something happens while hiking while pregnant?”
< br>When Lin Shu heard his rude tone, he immediately felt aggrieved, "There's nothing tiring about climbing a mountain. I just want to relax. You are the main force in collecting medicinal materials."
Mainly in autumn. It is the season when most herbs are collected. After this season, he will not let her go up the mountain in winter. However, since she was reborn and bound to this system, she was destined to deal with medicinal herbs in her life.
Moreover, the current system has a media collection function. It is really effortless to collect medicinal materials on the mountain. As long as you walk around the mountain, the balance of the system will rise steadily. Going up the mountain is equivalent to picking up money.
If you don’t pick up the money, why don’t you go up the mountain while your belly is still small?
Gu Jiu sighed helplessly, "You are tired even if you are pregnant now, even if you climb a mountain."
Seeing that he disagreed, Lin Shu lied directly: "Pregnant women also need to exercise, just one sentence, Will you accompany me tomorrow? Go up the mountain, if you don’t want to go, then I will go alone.”
Gu Jiu took off his suit jacket, took Lin Shu into his arms and sat down, holding her chin and kissing her lips. After taking a bite, "Go!"
His lips tingled slightly, Lin Shu licked his lower lips and hummed: "Why do I hear the smell of gnashing of teeth? You are unwilling to do so. I don't like to force others."
< br>Gu Jiu looked at her puckered little mouth and kissed it again. He had to soften his tone and said, "Okay, don't be angry. You can go up the mountain tomorrow, but you have to Promise me, you must pay attention to safety, you are not allowed to walk on steep slopes, and you are not allowed to dig. You are just going to relax, and you can only be responsible for relaxing. I will take care of other things."
Lin Shu listened dimly. Her eyes lit up instantly, she held his face and kissed him back, "Okay, it's settled."
Dashan, here I come again!
The air seems to become freer when entering the mountains.
There are many fir trees in the mountainous area, and the trees are lush and green. Only a few broad-leaved trees have yellow leaves. Occasionally, you can see a persimmon tree. The persimmon tree is densely knotted, and the green bark has just turned yellow, hanging on the tree like small lanterns.
Differing from region to region, these persimmons may not be fully mature until frost.
The scenery in the mountains in spring and summer is like a beautiful woman wearing heavy makeup, while the scenery in autumn and winter is like a beautiful woman who has washed away all her beauty and is calm and bare-faced. They are pure and elegant, and the most memorable.
Gu Jiu opened the way in front, and Lin Shu followed behind. He found that with a slight touch of the herbs, the herbs that originally grew on the roadside instantly entered the system.
To keep my ears quiet, I turned off the system announcement sound. As for the system balance, I don’t have time to check it at any time.
"The hillside here is gentler. Let's climb up from this side today." When they reached the foot of the mountain, Gu Jiu pointed to the gentler hillside on one side.
"Okay."
The two of them had just walked not far when Lin Shu pointed to a plant in front and said: "Gu Jiu, the plant on your right front looks a bit like a mugwort leaf. It’s Aconite, the famous poison.”
Gu Jiu dug up Aconite last time. Lin Shu didn’t even remember that the plant was Aconite unless he was reminded. He took out the medicine hoe and started digging. stand up.
"There are a few Vajra vines here, and I dug them up by the way." Gu Jiu threw the aconite into the basket, picked up a sickle and cut off the prickly vines of the Vajra vine, and then started to dig out the roots.
Lin Shu went to the nearby area to look for other medicinal materials. Not to mention that she actually discovered the Fenggui Dou Wen that she had never dug up before. She squatted down and put all these herbs into the system.
[Host, I found wild Bupleurum three meters ahead, a good medicine for relieving symptoms, worth 2 yuan per pound. 】
【Bupleurum? 】If Lin Shu remembers correctly, he seems to have never dug up Bupleurum.
[Back to the host, the small yellow flowers blooming three meters in front are wild Bupleurum plants. 】
[System, is Xiaobupleurum granules made from this kind of Bupleurum? 】
[Back to the host, Bupleurum is a good medicine for relieving inflammation, so hurry up and dig it up. 】
Lin Shu turned around and saw that Gu Jiu was still digging out the few diamond vines, and hurriedly put a small piece of Bupleurum into the system.
I saw two thistles in front of me and quickly collected them.
Very similar to thistle, the flying sickle has also been harvested.
“Why didn’t you wait for me? Did you find any medicinal materials?”
After Gu Jiu dug up the diamond vine, he chased after him from behind.
Lin Shu stood in front of a clump of herbs, turned around and asked with a smile: "Do you know what kind of medicinal material this clump of herbs is?"
"Jiejie grass?" Gu Jiu looked at that A clump of herbs, isn't it just a knotweed? It's just that the plant is relatively weak, slightly thinner and weaker than the knotweed collected before.
Lin Shu reminded him: "Look carefully, is it really a grass?"
As he said that, Lin Shu took off a section of the grass and tore it open, "The grass is hollow. , and this grass is yellow in the middle, and it has grown seeds, and now it has turned red.”
Gu Jiu raised his eyebrows: "What kind of herb is this? Is it very valuable?"
"Hmm~" Lin Shu tilted his chin slightly proudly, "Ten yuan a pound, do you think it's worth it?"
Gu Jiu smiled and nodded: "It is indeed not cheap."
"This herb is called ephedra, also called Qinglong. The Da Qinglong Decoction in Treatise on Febrile Diseases is based on it." Lin Shu Bang He popularizes science.
"If you didn't tell me, I would just treat it as a weed when I met it on the mountain, and I wouldn't know its value at all." With that, Gu Jiu started to pick it.
Lin Shu smiled and took a few steps back to give up his position.
The price given by the system is on the high side. In reality, we don’t know what the purchase price will be.
Climbing halfway up the mountain, he found a lot of Polygonatum japonica. Gu Jiu had been busy wielding the medicine hoe. Although he was tired, the harvest was good.
"Huh! Let's find a place to rest for a while and eat something."
Throwing the last Polygonatum rhizome into the basket, Gu Jiu found a stone and sat down.
Today Lin Shu was looking for medicinal herbs, he was digging, but the digging could never catch up with the searching, and he was exhausted.
Lin Shu handed him the kettle, "Actually, you don't have to dig so hard."
Gu Jiu drank a few sips of water, exhaled, and gave her a resentful look: "You The speed of searching for herbs is too fast. How can I catch up with you if I don’t dig hard?”
“Haha.”
In fact, the purpose of digging for herbs is to keep him busy. I paid attention to her all the time, but I didn't expect that it made her tired.
"Eh!"
Lin Shu's laughter faltered: "What's wrong?"
Gu Jiu pointed to a herb not far ahead, "Do you think it has three branches and five leaves?" Chive flowers?"
Lin Shu didn't pay attention at first, but after taking a closer look, he smiled, "Yes."
"Ginseng?" Gu Jiu squatted over.
Lin Shu rolled his eyes, "We don't have ginseng here."
Gu Jiu turned around and asked, "What is it if it's not ginseng? Isn't ginseng just three branches and five leaves of chive flowers."
Lin Shu patted him on the back funny, "Panax notoginseng, ginseng, bamboo notoginseng, and American ginseng are all plants of the genus Panax genus. , three branches and five leaves of leeks are one of their characteristics. As for what it is, you will know it when you dig it out."
Before he could dig it, Lin Shu said again: "I guess it is a big leaf. Panax notoginseng, because its rhizome is like a button, is also called button seven. "
"Daye Panax notoginseng?"
"Well, dig it out, you'll find out when you dig it out!"
Two chapters combined into one.
