Haiyan Heqing Four O’clock Days

  Chapter 39 [Jing Lian Xia Sheng] The roots are solid, everything is long, and the villagers are busy in the early summer [Li Xia·Fourth]

  Steaming during the summer season,

  Mengxia Moon King Guasheng.

  It’s hard to stop farming during busy periods,

  Good rain is accompanied by warm wind.

——

  The warm wind makes visitors sleep, and the mist and rain keep the heat away. Rao is a southern country, and the continuous precipitation cannot dissipate the heat that is shrouded in China and China.

  On the contrary, there is a corner in the southwest of China Shenzhou, which seems to be favored by the heavens. The temperature is cool and suitable, and the climate is humid but not so muddy.

  Similar to Jiangnan, this place occupies the word "South" and is called "Yunnan".

  Because of the high mountains, the place has been eroded by flowing water all the year round, resulting in a lot of gullies and gullies. The surface is quite rugged, but due to the vastness of the land and the high altitude, the natural scenery is well preserved.

   A vine-like herb grows in the mountains with white-yellow flowers. The leaves are like paper. Near the stem, the leaves look like a heart, as if they are welcoming people who see it.

  There are two herb pickers carrying large half-height bamboo baskets woven from bamboo skimmers, which have just contained a bottom layer of turquoise raspberry fruits.

"Father, do you think this king melon can be planted?" One of the medicinal pickers wiped the sweat from his head. "After all, it is a perennial, why take the risk to pick it in the mountains? I can't make much money. , It's not..."

"You young people, hey..." The elderly medicinal picker beside him sighed, obviously a little angry in it, "I don't know what I have learned outside? What about such deceitful things? I can do it!"

  Speaking, the herb picker picked up the bamboo stick at hand and slammed his son's arm.

  "Where is the efficacy of wild medicinal materials that you can compare with the medicinal materials grown with chemical fertilizers? By then, the patient will not be able to cure the disease after taking your fake medicine. What is your conscience?"

  The young herb picker realized his mistake and kept silent, and the older herb picker did not relentlessly continue to reprimand his son.

  Not far away, the young herb gatherer opened his mouth again, "But, dad..."

   "We can't make much money like this."

   "What if I can't make much money? It's enough to live!" The company commander of the older medicine-gathering company took a breath.

  "Why do you young people pursue material things like this? It is your duty to do your job well, don't think about these things."

In this way, the father and son stopped and walked all the way from the bottom of the mountain to the top of the mountain. The back basket was full of medicinal materials, and the sun gradually went down the mountain. The older medicinal picker was helped by his son down the mountain and greeted him. The faint rays of the sun walked home.

   "Son... Daddy is old, and I will leave this job to you in the future." At sunset, the back of the old herb gatherer was a little rickety, and the shadow behind him was dragged by the sun, looking very tall.

   "Father knows that you are unwilling to call a graduate student of you to do this, but after all this work has to be done by someone, without the knowledge of pharmacology, if the medicinal materials are broken, it will kill people!"

   "Father knows you have the ability, you dare not spend a lifetime in this small mountain village."

   "Father also thought about it. What Dad said just now is a little heavier. After all, you young people still have your own way! You can use your own skills to plant medicinal materials while ensuring the efficacy of the medicine."

   "But... My child, you promised father, but don't lose your conscience and virtue for that little benefit!"

  Father and son go farther and farther. Kyushu, who is looking at it from afar, feels that he has learned a lot of human principles these days. This old medicine picker is right. You can’t lose your conscience and virtue for the benefit of being a human being!

  After all, Kyushu is still a child, and his cardiopulmonary function is not perfect. Lixia worried that Kyushu would not be able to adapt to the higher altitude here, so he took Kyushu to leave Yunnan.

  Riding on the soft wind that passed my ears, I don’t know whether it was because of the heat entrained in the wind, or the touch that the father and son just brought to Kyushu's heart. Kyushu just felt warmth spontaneously.
