Traveling through the famine years with the system to raise cubs

Chapter 18 Water Source 2



Jiang Ling's words made Jiang Suhe's eyes light up, but Jiang Suhe's eyes dimmed in an instant. Jiang Suhe is already nine years old this year, almost past the best age for studying.

Although girls in this era can also read books, most of the ones who can read books are merchant daughters or official ladies. How could the daughter of a farmer have such unreasonable thoughts.

She was very satisfied that she could follow Lu Gousheng to write her own name and recognize a few words.

Thinking of this, Jiang Suhe bit his lips lightly, looked at Jiang Ling with fluttering eyes and said, "Mother, I don't want to study. What kind of books do I have for a daughter? I will get married in a few years!"

How could Jiang Ling not know Jiang Suihe's thoughts? In Yuanshen's previous memory, Jiang Suihe was always inexplicably interested in literacy, and even secretly took his only rations to him in order to recognize a few more words. Lu Gouzeng just wanted Lu Gouzeng to teach her a few more words.

If it wasn't for the bastard Lu Youren's interference, Jiang Suhe would probably have passed the exam for a girl student and would have gone to the girls' school in the town to study.

Thinking of this, Jiang Ling suddenly had an idea in his heart - for Jiang Suihe to study!

She knew that it would cost a lot of money to support a scholar in the family, but Jiang Ling knew better that if a good seedling was buried, no amount of money would be able to make up for this regret in the future.

Jiang Ling's gaze gradually became firm, and she patted Jiang Suihe beside her and said softly: "You don't have to worry about this, just listen to your mother!"

"But...Mum..." Jiang Suhe's eyes flashed with joy but soon darkened again. She opened her mouth and didn't know how to speak.

"No, Suihe, just listen to your mother!" Jiang Ling's tone was full of irresistible power.

Jiang Suihe finally clenched his fists tightly and said in a choked tone: "Okay... I will listen to my mother!"

"Silly girl, what are you crying for? Wipe your tears quickly, don't let your brother and sister think that I'm killing you!" Jiang Ling gently wiped away the tears from the corners of Jiang Suhe's eyes.

After the mother and daughter talked about their hearts, both of them were in a very good mood.

As soon as Jiang Ling opened the door, he saw Jiang Yaojie pouring a basin of dirty water on the field in front of his house. This old house has been unoccupied for a long time, and now it is in drought again. The field in front of his house is naturally No vegetables of any kind are grown.

The dry and cracked land ushered in the long-lost rain, which instantly absorbed the basin of dirty water.

Jiang Ling stared at the wet field, and a picture suddenly flashed in his mind.

"That's right! That's it! Damn, why am I so stupid! How did I just think of it! How could Hericium erinaceus grow in arid places? Mushrooms like dark and humid the most, and the soil where I pull Hericium erinaceus is not that kind of drought If this is the case, then there must be a source of water nearby! Otherwise, how could mushrooms grow?" Thinking of Jiang Ling's fierce slap on the head, she forced her beating heart to move towards the gate. direction to go.

"Mother, what are you doing?" Jiang Yaojie subconsciously blurted out as he looked at the already dark sky.

"Oh! Jiang Yaojie called my mother!" Jiang Ling was overjoyed when she heard the words, but finding the water source is more important now. She smiled and turned to Jiang Yaojie and said, "I'll go out for a while, and I'll be back in a while. You take two sister!"

Said Jiang Ling quickly walked towards the mountain.

Walking and walking, the excitement just now gradually receded. Jiang Ling glanced at the pitch-black mountain in front of her, and shivered for no reason. The mouth is so-so, it seems that it is possible to swallow her at any time.

Jiang Ling understood her temperament, if she didn't find out about this matter today, she would definitely toss and turn and couldn't fall asleep tonight.

Thinking of this, Jiang Ling swallowed, summoned up great courage, and walked in the direction of picking Hericium erinaceus.

The sight at night is not as good as during the day, especially in this densely forested mountain. Jiang Ling almost fell down a few times without noticing his feet, and walked for a long time before he touched the place where they dug potatoes during the day.

Jiang Ling carefully squatted next to the soil, stretched out her hand and gently brushed the soil off the ground, then came to the place where Hericium erinaceus was found, and repeated the same action.

"Sure enough, the soil here is much wetter than the soil in front!" Jiang Ling gently patted the soil off his hands, and walked towards a deeper place.

Jiang Ling stopped and walked along the way, squatting down from time to time to touch the surrounding soil, the wet soil became more and more obvious on Jiang Ling's fingertips, and Jiang Ling's heart beat more and more with this wet feeling faster.

While walking, a cave suddenly appeared in front of Jiang Ling. Jiang Ling looked into the cave curiously, but unfortunately, it was pitch black and Jiang Ling couldn't see anything.

"Tick tock...tick tock..." The extremely faint sound of water droplets came from the hole.

When Jiang Ling heard the faint sound of water droplets, his eyes widened suddenly, and he poked his ears quickly, for fear that the sound he heard just now was a hallucination.

"Tick tock...tick tock..." There were two more faint sounds of water droplets.

After Jiang Ling confirmed that he heard correctly, his whole body trembled slightly, his heart beat wildly, and a line of tears overflowed his eyes.

With what little sense she had left, she covered her mouth tightly to prevent herself from screaming.

Jiang Ling, who was standing by the entrance of the cave, was calm for a long time before preparing to walk in.

In the dark night, a hand suddenly stretched out and patted Jiang Ling's shoulder lightly.

Jiang Ling felt as if he had been struck by lightning, his scalp was numb, his brain was buzzing, his clothes were drenched in cold sweat, his legs softened and he staggered heavily to the ground.

"You... are you okay?" Jiang Yaojie's voice appeared behind Jiang Ling.

"Ah!" The quiet Lujia Village was pierced by a sharp cry.

Jiang Ling was trembling all over, sweating profusely, panting heavily, staring at Jiang Yaojie in front of her with blank eyes.

Jiang Yaojie on the side almost cried out of fright when he saw Jiang Ling like this. He bit his lip and stood there at a loss, even stretching his arms back and forth several times. He wanted to shake Jiang Ling, but Jiang The current appearance of Ling is really terrible.He didn't dare to make a move, for fear that Jiang Ling in front of him would eat him.

"Yao... Yaojie?" Jiang Ling, who gradually regained consciousness, asked tentatively with a hoarse voice.

"Mother... woo... Mother, you scared me to death!!" Jiang Yaojie was relieved when he heard Jiang Ling calling him, and his emotions collapsed.

"Yaojie, you scared me to death!" Although Jiang Ling thought so, she didn't say the words, but asked instead: "Yaojie, it's so late, what are you doing out here?"

"I... I... I'm worried about you... I... I don't know that I will scare you! I see... I see that you have entered the mountain. Here I heard the village chief uncle say that there will be wolves at night. I I'm worried about what you...so..." Jiang Yaojie lowered his head lower and lower, and his voice became smaller and smaller.

Jiang Ling smiled wryly. She stood up supporting the stone next to her, and comforted softly: "It's because I'm too timid, don't feel guilty! I know you are a good boy!"

Jiang Yaojie nodded after hearing this, and summoned up his courage to ask: "Mom, get out of here quickly, this is the white-haired empress cave, you can't go in! If you go in, you will be punished by the white-haired empress!"

As Jiang Yaojie said, he was about to pull Jiang Ling's hand and prepare to leave.

"The white-haired lady? The white-haired lady again?" Hearing Jiang Yaojie and the village head say the same thing, Jiang Ling looked suspiciously at Jiang Yaojie and asked, "Yaojie, what is the white-haired lady?"
