After Lin Qin came down the mountain, he realized that it was already their usual meal time. Thinking that lunch was not done yet, Lin Qin suddenly became anxious and quickened his pace to run home.

When Lin and his father returned home with their hoes, they found that the house was empty without any sign of Lin Qin, and the kitchen was cold and cold without any smoke or smoke. Father Lin was tired all morning and his chest was pressed against his back with hunger. He originally thought that there would be delicious meals waiting for them when they returned home, but he did not expect that what greeted them was an empty house.

Father Lin was really angry at first. He was angry that Lin Qin didn't even cook and ran off to nowhere. But after he calmed down, Father Lin panicked again. Father Green knew very well what kind of personality Lin Qin was, but he was filial, sensible and never willful. If Lin Dazhu and Lin Erzhu were lazy and ran out to play, Father Lin would still believe it, but if Lin Qin was lazy and ran out to play and beat Father Lin to death, he would not believe it.

But now Lin Qin, who was supposed to stay at home and wait for them to come back, was missing. The more Lin's father thought about it, the more something was wrong. He hurriedly called Lin Dazhu and Lin Erzhu, who were packing tools in the yard, to go out and look for Lin Qin.

Only then did Lin Dazhu and Lin Erzhu realize that Lin Qin was missing. They panicked, responded and prepared to rush out. But just when Lin and his father were about to go to the village to look for Lin Qin, Lin Qin ran back panting and carrying a backpack on his back.

Father Lin finally felt relieved when he saw that Lin Qin was still unharmed even though he was panting. However, the suppressed anger resurfaced after he was reassured.

"Where have you been? You don't even know what time it is. You haven't even cooked any food." Lin's father angrily scolded Lin Qin.

"I'm sorry, Dad. After I finished my work in the morning, I wanted to go up the mountain to collect some delicacies, but I forgot the time." What Lin Qin has been most afraid of since he was a child is that Father Lin will be angry. At this time, seeing Father Lin with a dark face, he was so frightened. All white.

Although he forgot that the time was wrong, Lin Qin had good intentions and wanted to subsidize the family. Lin's father's originally gloomy face finally looked better.

Seeing this, Lin Dazhu took advantage of the situation and said, "Okay dad, don't be angry. Brother Qin is still young and sometimes he doesn't do things comprehensively." After that, he gave Lin Erzhu a look to indicate that he would also say good things for Lin Qin.

Lin Erzhu received Lin Dazhu's signal and said quickly, "Brother is right. Dad, don't be angry. It's okay to eat a quarter of an hour late. Brother Qin is fine. Just now you thought something happened to Brother Qin and you're not in a hurry." Isn't that great?"

Lin's father was not really angry. At this time, seeing Lin Dazhu and Lin Erzhu talking to each other, he walked down the steps and said to Lin Qin, "Okay, pay attention to the next time and put down the backpack quickly. Go cook, I have to work in the fields in the afternoon."

"Hey." Lin Qin responded and took off the basket and handed it to Lin Dazhu to put it away. After walking a few steps, he suddenly remembered something and turned around and said, "Brother, carry the basket. You have to be careful. I was lucky enough to dig up a few yams today. I went to the town to sell them in the afternoon and we all have a good meal in the evening."

Lin Qin also put a lot of wild vegetables on the basket in order not to be discovered. So Lin Dazhu didn't notice anything wrong at all just now. He just thought that the wild vegetables Lin Qin picked were quite fresh. Even though he couldn't sell them for a few dollars, it was good to keep them at home for his own consumption. Just when Lin Dazhu was about to put the backpack casually by the door, Lin Qin suddenly said this. Lin Qin's words made Lin Dazhu freeze there, and Lin's father and Lin Erzhu stopped their original intention to enter the house.

"Brother Qin, did I hear you right? You said you dug up yam, and how many yams are there???" Lin Erzhu exclaimed. Fortunately, he knew to keep a low profile, so he deliberately lowered his voice.

Although Lin's father and Lin Dazhu didn't speak, they stared at Lin Qin. No wonder they were so nervous, the news was really shocking. If Lin Qin really digs yams, not to mention that their family will undergo earth-shaking changes, but it will definitely improve their family situation.

"Well, it's true. On weekdays, there is nothing in the places where people collect mountain treasures. I just wanted to go deep into the mountains to have a look, but accidentally I went too far. I was a little scared at first and wanted to come back, but in the end I found yams. When I was digging, I looked around carefully and saw no one, so I had the courage to dig out all the yams. There are seven yams in total." Lin Qin's expression at this time can already be described as high-spirited. One can imagine how happy Lin Qin was at this time.

Father Lin and the other three were completely speechless at this time. It wasn't that they didn't want to say anything but that they didn't know what to say. Seven yams are sold at the current price in the town, whether they are sold to restaurants or It can be sold to wealthy families for several taels of silver. With this money and the money they saved, not only would Lin Dazhu's two brothers get wives, but at least Lin Dazhu's marriage could be settled. Even if the two brothers Lin Dazhu did not marry a woman and only married their brother, their marriage would be resolved.

Father Lin was the first to react and took the wild vegetables away from the basket. He saw a few fat yams placed at the bottom of the basket. He picked up one and turned it over and found that there were at least two or three kilograms. Finally, a smile appeared on his face. Father Lin inspected each yam and found that Lin Qin had dug it very carefully. Each yam was in perfect condition and could be sold for a good price. Thinking that after selling the money, Lin Dazhu and the two brothers might be able to marry a wife, Father Lin was embarrassed. The joy on his face was even more obvious, and he looked several years younger.
