Chapter 271 The vicious female partner escapes to farm (22)
The first time Erlang brought her here, she saw that the mountain wall at the mouth of the spring was very thin, so she punched it through with a light punch.
A hole was broken in the mountain wall, forming a pit. The gurgling hot springs flowed out and filled the pit.
After that, every time Xu Yin came, she would take a bath and wash her hair in this pit.
After soaking, she washed the clothes and hung them to dry on the nearby branches. She dug herbs and collected firewood nearby.
This was the most relaxed and comfortable moment for her in this world. There was no need to hide or pretend, and she could even sing a popular song from her past life when she was in a mood.
It's a pity that in a different world, Xu Tone-deaf Leader Yin would still run away when he sang.
I simply feel that this simulated male voice is unique and I should appreciate it myself.
Humming a song makes you more energetic at work.
Before I knew it, I had picked up a bamboo basket full of firewood.
Not many herbs were collected.
It seems that if you want to clear "Chinese Herbal Medicine Illustrated Book" in this world, you have to rely on Orion Village!
Said Cao Cao Cao Cao has arrived.
After her hair was dry, she put her hair back into a man bun and carried the bamboo basket. She had just come down the mountain when she saw Shi Fengnian running towards her:
"Brother Hero, you have guests here. They say they are from Orion Village. I see they picked a lot of things. Are they here to thank you again?"
When Xu Yin heard it, she waved to him and said, "Thank you! I'll go back and have a look. I'll leave first!"
He took three steps and took two and returned home.
He Changxing's three sons and two from the same village came to deliver the herbs on their shoulders.
"My dear, please see if you can use these herbs?"
"It comes in handy."
Xu Yin glanced at it, and found that most of them were common herbs such as dandelion, isatis root, and plantain. Among them were some blue-grey plants with roots that didn't look like roots and stems that didn't look like stems.
This is... Dendrobium?
Xu Yin's eyes lit up.
Dendrobium is a good thing!
She asked: "Are there many on this mountain?"
"There are quite a few at the bottom of the cliff, but we weren't sure if they were herbs, so we didn't dig more. Dad asked us to bring them here and said that we could have a look and dig them out next time if they are needed."
Xu Yin nodded: "This is a good thing. After brewing it, soak it in water and drink it. It can strengthen your body."
The three brothers of the He family scratched their heads: "We don't know how to concoct it. Let's bring it to our benefactor next time!"
When Xu Yin touched Dendrobium, there was a "ding" sound in her mind, and the "Chinese Herbal Medicine Illustrated Book" lit up "Dendrobium officinale".
Huh?
She remembered lighting up the dendrobium in the illustrated book.
When I turned back and took a look, there was indeed a [Dendrobium] illustrated book that was lit up.
Could it be that the effects of Dendrobium officinale are different from those of ordinary Dendrobium, so there is a special illustrated guide?
Ignoring this for now, she poured out the herbs from the basket and sorted them with Erlang.
Fortunately, the He family had dealt with her once and knew her requirements. Herbs of the same type were tied with fine linen ropes, making them easy to sort.
After sorting, it’s time to weigh.
But she didn't have a scale at home, so she weighed it in her hand and roughly estimated the weight. She only paid a lot more money.
The three brothers of the He family had seen her cheerfulness in taking out money, but the two young men from the same village had never seen her. It was the first time they saw a whole tael of silver, and they were so excited that they couldn't speak at all on the way home:
"Two, two baskets of herbs gave us one tael of silver. The herbs are now so valuable?"
"It's still the same price when I take it to the drugstore. It's a kindness of our kindness to give us more."
"I see... Shui Gen, we will follow you three brothers from now on!"
"That's right! If you work till the end of the year, you can get a wife to go home to! Hold your mother-in-law in your arms and celebrate the New Year! You don't have to watch your three brothers drool!"
"Hahaha……"
In this room, Erlang looked at the silver coins that were given out, his little face wrinkled up with distress: "Sister-in-law..."
"Come here, my sister-in-law will teach you about the uses of dendrobium and teach you how to write these two words."
Xu Yin explained the functions of dendrobium to the two children one by one.
Third sister seemed to understand but Erlang's eyes brightened the more he listened: "Wow! Is it so useful?"
"Of course! Don't think that only ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum are treasures among medicinal materials. The world is so big that there are many medicinal materials of high value that you don't know."
As Xu Yin spoke, she took out a pen and paper and wrote the word dendrobium to teach them how to read.
"Stone fight?"
"Hahaha..." Xu Yin was amused, "This word has the same pronunciation as the word "湖水", so they cannot be pronounced separately! But you have memorized Jiao and Dou, and you deserve a reward!"
What’s a good reward?
The three brothers of the He family also brought a pheasant over.
Xu Yin did not make chicken soup this time. After marinating, she stuffed some mushrooms, fungus, and wild onions into the belly of the chicken. She sealed the butt of the chicken with a thin bamboo skewer, smeared a layer of oil on the chicken, and wrapped it in
Several layers of large leaves were evenly smeared with mud, thrown into the kiln, and a beggar's chicken was roasted for them to try.
Erlang said while eating: "It's so delicious! This chicken is the most delicious chicken I have ever eaten!"
"How many chickens have you ever eaten? Is this the best? Don't you want to eat better ones in the future?" Xu Yin teased him.
He hesitated for a while before saying, "I can't imagine a more delicious chicken than this."
Xu Yin smiled and said nothing.
Of course, silly boy! Have you ever eaten fried chicken?
So far, she has never seen a child who can resist the temptation of fried chicken.
If so, it's probably because the master's level is not good enough.
However, with all the fussing around for some cooking oil, there was really no way to fry it for them.
Besides, the chicken hasn’t grown up yet.
"Wait for the Chinese New Year! My sister-in-law will make a chicken dish that is more delicious than beggar's chicken for you two to try."
From that day on, Erlang and Sanmei counted the days on their fingers every day.
When Xu Yin saw this, she was both funny and sad, so she gathered some materials and made a simple old almanac for them with pictures and texts. The first half of the page contained the month, day, zodiac signs, and seasons, and the second half of the page was a poem and essay that conformed to the solar terms.
Pictures that fit the occasion.
Erlang, who had never seen an almanac before, not only looked at it every day to count the days, but also regarded it as a treasure. He carried it with him wherever he went and touched it from time to time to see if it was there.
The third sister also wanted it, and for the first time the brother and sister had a bad time because of the uneven distribution.
Xu Yin had a headache. She really couldn't do the job of mediating between the conflicting little kids.
"How about my sister-in-law make another book for Third Sister?"
But with calendars, one book is enough to look at the dates. Why do you need so many books?
Xu Yin thought for a while and made a children's illustrated magazine for her third sister.
The content of the painting is the interaction between brother and sister since they escaped from famine.
In fact, Erlang is a good brother. During the escape, he always protected his third sister as a protector.
Xu Yin delicately expresses Erlang's kindness to Sanmei in the form of comics.
After the third sister read the pictorial, she no longer called Erlang "stinky brother".
"Second brother is good to me!"
"Yes! If there is food, give it to the third sister first; if there is water to drink, feed the third sister first; when it is sunny, hold an umbrella for the third sister; when it rains, give the third sister a raincoat; when encountering bad people, he will hide the third sister in a bamboo basket.
." Xu Yin guided eloquently.
The third sister blinked: "Sister-in-law, I don't want the calendar anymore. I'll give it to my second brother."
"The third sister is so good. She knew that Kong Rong had given up on pear at such a young age." Xu Yin told the story to the brother and sister by the way.
Erlang once again looked at her with great reverence: "Sister-in-law, you know so much! If you were a man, you would definitely become the number one scholar."
Xu Yin rubbed his little head in a funny way: "It's okay, Erlang can fulfill my sister-in-law's dream of becoming the number one scholar."
When Erlang heard this, his eyes shone with excitement, but he quickly lowered his shoulders: "No, it will cost a lot of money to get the top prize."
