The happy little days of the Ye family

The thing underfoot is not big and very smooth, with some soft little tassels on the edges.

Based on his feeling, Tang Xiaojing felt that it should be a jade pendant.

Letting go of Ye Qingqing in his arms, Tang Xiaojing bent down and picked up the things at his feet.

Tang Xiaojing guessed correctly, it was indeed a jade pendant.

What was taken out from the water was a light green jade pendant slightly larger than a copper coin, with a very delicate and beautiful unicorn carved on it.

Neither the Tang family nor the Ye family have such things as jade pendants, and they don't know much about jade.

Ye Qingqing couldn't tell what kind of jade it was, but the color looked pretty good.

There were some tassels woven with red rope on the jade pendant, but it had been soaked in water for a long time and half of it had rotted. Tang Xiaojing gently pulled it, and the rope was broken.

Tang Xiaojing threw the broken rope to the ground, then took the jade pendant and washed it in the water. After washing it, he handed it to Ye Qingqing beside him.

This jade pendant was quite heavy in his hand. Seeing that the jade unicorn was vividly carved, Ye Qingqing felt that this thing must be worth a lot of money.

They were both very excited when they got the good stuff.

Ye Qingqing put the jade pendant on top of clean clothes, and then pulled Tang Xiaojing to fumble around in the small pool.

Tang Xiaojing's excitement was different. He actually wanted to continue what he was doing.

But when he saw that the little girl was in high spirits, he couldn't help but follow her and started searching around.

The small pool was not big, so it was quickly searched twice by the young couple, but nothing else was found.

The two of them lazily leaned in the pool to soak in the hot spring. Tang Xiaojing felt that a person should have a beginning and an end, so he hugged Ye Qingqing over again.

The two of them have a good relationship, and Ye Qingqing doesn't refuse.

When they were making out, Ye Qingqing's eyes happened to be facing the jade pendant just now. He saw that the originally wet jade pendant had dried, and a few light white scratches were exposed on it.

Seeing scratches on the jade pendant, Ye Qingqing excitedly pushed Tang Xiaojing away and exclaimed:

"Why are there so many scratches on this jade pendant?"

After hearing Ye Qingqing's words, Tang Xiaojing also came over.

I saw three particularly deep white scratches on the front of the jade pendant, and many small scratches on the edges. A good jade pendant was ruined in this way.

"I stepped on it just now. It was probably scratched under the pool."

Tang Xiaojing was in a bad mood. The scratches on it should have been made when he stepped on it just now.

Seeing that he was unhappy, Ye Qingqing comforted him and said:

"It's not necessarily you who did it. I don't know when this jade pendant fell off. Maybe it was scratched before we came in."

Ye Qingqing turned the jade pendant over, and there was no scratch on the other side.

However, there are several obvious scratches on the side where the unicorn is engraved, which destroys the original beauty of this jade pendant.

Ye Qingqing felt it was a pity, "The scratches are quite deep. I don't know if I can still sell them for money."

Tang Xiaojing took the jade pendant and looked at it again, "The scratches are quite obvious, so I probably can't sell it.

"This jade pendant looks like fine jade, and the jade unicorn on it is not something ordinary people can use. I think it's better to bury it with those old clothes."

Many wealthy families have gold leaf, and there is nothing special about it. But this jade pendant was different. Tang Xiaojing was worried about being recognized by someone interested, so it was safer to bury it.

Ye Qingqing nodded in agreement. "It can't be sold for any money anyway, so I might as well put it in the tomb."

I was quite happy to find the jade pendant at first, but suddenly I found that the jade pendant was worthless.

The two people's moods fluctuated greatly, and they suddenly lost their energy and had no intention of continuing what they had just done.

Seeing that they were almost soaked, the two stood up and put on clean clothes.

Tang Xiaojing looked at the light coming in from above his head, and felt that it was brighter when it was not coming in, so he reminded:

"It's getting late. It's time for us to go out. We have to collect dendrobium and bury things later."

Ye Qingqing nodded and quickly packed the backpack. "In winter, the days are short and the nights are long. I want to go back early."

The torches he brought in had been burned out long ago. Before going out, Tang Xiaojing made two more torches using the wooden boards he had just removed.

After lighting the torch, Tang Xiaojing called over the two dogs who were still patrolling the cave.

"Dahuang Xiaohuang, go back."

"Ouch!"

"Ouch!"

Dahuang and Xiaohuang were actually tired of staying here for a long time. When they heard Tang Xiaojing's call, they ran ahead excitedly like a gust of wind.

Tang Xiaojing held a torch in one hand and led Ye Qingqing out with the other.

After leaving the big cave, there are small and dark caves outside, and there are many signs of manual excavation around it.

The two walked inside for a long time before reaching the exit of the cave.

It was relatively dark inside the cave. After coming out and facing the bright outside, Ye Qingqing's eyes were still a little unaccustomed, and the things around him looked very blurry.

After blinking several times, what I saw gradually became clear.

At this time, Big Yellow and Little Yellow had already run under the rock and ran wildly on the mountain.

Tang Xiaojing had already walked twice around the lush dendrobium trees beside the cave entrance, thinking about how to start harvesting them.

The branches of dendrobium can be long or short, and the long ones are very strong. They should be the branches that were left last time.

The smaller ones are new growths from the back and are thin and small.

Tang Xiaojing carefully cut off the thick branches with a dagger, leaving only the half-sized and newly grown branches.

Ye Qingqing took out a clean sack and packed the dendrobium that Tang Xiaojing had cut into the sack.

In addition to the dendrobium trees beside the cave entrance, there are two more trees growing in the rock crevices not far away.

Two dendrobium trees grow side by side, and one of them is obviously larger.

The big one was picked the year before last, and the smaller one was picked last year.

The two walked to the dendrobium they had picked the year before. Just like before, they cut off all the thick branches, leaving only the small ones to continue to grow.

Two dendrobium trees have filled a whole sack, which is heavy in the hand.

There is a very steep rock wall going down from the cave entrance.

And the best thing is that there is a protruding rock not far from the rock, which just blocks the entrance of the cave and two other dendrobium trees.

The place where these three dendrobiums grow is very hidden. If you don't climb up, you really can't find them.

There is a touch of green under the rock. It is the first dendrobium that Tang Xiaojing discovered. He had already picked it last year.

There are four dendrobium trees here. Tang Xiaojing picks two of them every year and keeps the remaining two to grow.

Picked once every two years, these dendrobiums can also rest well.

In fact, in the past few years, Tang Xiaojing has also tried to plant dendrobium branches, but unfortunately all of them withered without exception.

Therefore, Tang Xiaojing treated these four precious dendrobium trees with more care.
