Chapter 77: Eaten

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

With his help, the digging of yams became much faster.

He soon understood the key parts about digging yams. He was an adult man with great strength and endurance. He should be much faster than Qin

Zhenzhen.

Qin Zhenzhen only had one iron picker with her, so she went to pick yam beans.

They ate lunch in the mountains too.

Under the shade of the tree, they sat together, talking and laughing, eating cakes and steamed yam beans.

Su Cheng and Su Ning felt so happy and satisfied. They hoped that they could live like this forever.

But Third Brother’s attitude towards Third Sister-in-law had not yet changed.

He suddenly felt that it was not a bad thing for a family to live together like this.

If his future wife could be like Third Sister-in-law, who could keep his brother and sister fed, and the whole family could talk and laugh, he would be very satisfied.

But he was not as good-looking as his Third Brother, who was very popular among girls.

He was not as lucky as his Third Brother to have a girl like Third Sister-in-law, who forced him to marry her.

In order to see if there were any wild rabbits in the trap, Su Cheng had already gone to fetch water twice.

Su Ning laughed. “Fifth Brother, you have to stay calm. We can check it out when we are done with work. Maybe there will be one!”

Su Cheng smiled too. “Sixth Sister, you are right. I was too anxious. If a wild rabbit falls into the trap, it won’t be able to escape. I don’t need to go and check it out all the time.”

The three of them picked the yam beans quickly. When they were about to go home, they had already picked a lot of baskets.

Qin Zhenzhen looked at the pile of yams, which weighed more than 50 KG. She started to get worried.

She tied the long yam roots into two bundles with thick vines and carried them away easily.

Su Cheng said, “Second Brother, don’t pick the firewood, just bring the yams home.”

But Su Ping said, “Tie the yam roots into my two bundles of dry woods, and I will pick them home together.”

“I did try to pick 100 KG.”

Qin Zhenzhen said nothing, and Su Ning and Su Cheng did not object. Their Second Brother was very strong.

When they returned to the village, it was getting dark, and no one noticed that they had brought back so many yams and yam beans.

The following day, they went to dig yams again.

They came home early, and the villagers stopped them. “What are you digging this for? Is it edible?”

Qin Zhenzhen nodded. “This is called yam. It is edible and has many benefits.” Then she narrated the benefits of eating yams.

Some villagers did not believe that. “Can it really be eaten? If it can be eaten, why didn’t our ancestors notice it?”

Qin Zhenzhen explained. “Yams are medicinal herbs first, and then ingredients. They are not everywhere, so it is not strange that you don’t know that they can be eaten.”

“But they are edible.”

Some people did not believe that. Some even tried to persuade Qin Zhenzhen.

“As the saying goes, medicine is 30% poisonous. Su Bin’s wife, you should stay calm. Don’t feed it to the family, and don’t ask them to dig it out for you.” “If the poison is too strong, we will be in trouble if we die!”

Someone else confirmed. “I know that even animals don’t dare to eat them. They must be poisonous.”

Qin Zhenzhen was speechless. She had told everyone that yams could be eaten, but she was still suspected that she was causing trouble around.

She had wanted to explain that yams were like taros. Some people would have allergies when they came into contact with the outer surface, and so would animals. That might be one reason why animals did not eat them.

But she felt that there was no need to explain at the moment..
