Chapter 497 The old doctor is sick (to the book friend Jin Yiwei: Rongrong's
What could Man Bao do? She could only look at Fifth Brother sympathetically, then patted her butt and stood up, saying: "Fifth Brother, you should be ready to go out and sell ginger."
Wu Lang stood up and said, "Man Bao, my father and mother both said that we will plant less ginger next year. Last year, because of the ginger grown in your small farm, we did not sell all the ginger. As a result, this year the people in the village also
We have started selling ginger outside. If we hadn’t found merchants from Linxian County to receive the goods, it would have been even harder to sell the ginger at home.”
Man Bao said nonchalantly: "Isn't there old ginger? Dig it back and dry it in the shade, make it into dried ginger and sell it to the drugstore. It's also very valuable. If you can't sell the ginger, keep it for one more year."
Now that she is studying medicine, she knows that dried ginger has many uses and is very powerful, so she knows that there will not be much of it, so she confidently said to Wu Lang: "Just grow it, and you will definitely sell it."
When Zhou Wulang heard this, he perked up and said, "I also have land. My father dislikes that I have a piece of land that is particularly remote and has sandy soil, so I don't want to plant it. I want to plant ginger on it."
"Will it be stolen?"
When Wu Lang heard this, he hesitated. If the valuable things he planted were too far away, he would not know if they were stolen. Therefore, their ginger, yams and other things were not planted very far away, not far from the entrance of the village.
.
Even during harvest time, a straw shed is set up there, and the brothers can take turns guarding it with their bedding.
But it won’t work if the place is too far away.
Wu Lang sighed, "I wish I had been born a few years earlier. Then not all the good land would be taken away by others, and not all the good wives would be married off."
Manbao:……
"Fifth brother, you can plant Ligustrum lucidum. Aren't the Ligustrum lucidum planted on the mountain behind us grown quite big? Then you can cut off the branches and insert them. No one should steal those things."
"No one stole it, but it's not easy to plant. Originally, we planted about thirty trees and kept them well watered and fertilized. In the end, only eighteen trees survived, and almost half of them were dead." Wu Lang felt that the seed girl
Chastity seeds are not as valuable as ginger cubes. Firstly, the price is slightly inferior. Secondly, Ligustrum lucidum requires a lot of processing. Thirdly, it grows too slowly.
"The ligustrum has been planted for two years, but it hasn't started to bear fruit yet. I don't know if it will bear fruit next year or how many it will bear."
"I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. Let's take it slow. You have to think on the bright side. Once you plant this ligustrum, you won't need to replant it for a long, long time. It's not like ginger, which has to be planted every year."
"Who says you can't eat hot tofu if you're in a hurry? You can't eat it if you're not in a hurry. Look at the tofu made at home, and everyone keeps picking it up as soon as it's served. If you take your time, it won't be your turn."
When Manbao heard this, he thought, yes, so he said to Keke in his heart: "Koke, I learned this sentence from you, you have to be responsible."
Keke ignored her.
The two brothers and sisters have already started talking about tofu and stuffed tofu. "The stuffed tofu made by my sister-in-law is really delicious. Manbao, after the winter solstice, can you still let my sister-in-law make it?"
Stuffed tofu was mentioned in a gourmet book that Manbao bought from the encyclopedia. In addition to stuffed tofu, there are also many bean-based dishes.
But if you just look at the pictures, Man Bao likes this dish the most, so he pestered Xiao Qian to make it first.
However, to make this dish, the tofu needs to be fried and made into tofu puffs, so Lao Zhou's family can't eat it often.
Because not only Lao Zhoutou felt distressed about You, but also Qian and Xiao Qian.
But tomorrow is the Winter Solstice, so it is different. Xiao Qian made stuffed tofu today and will have some to eat tomorrow, but it will be different after the Winter Solstice.
Wu Lang told Man Bao: "You have to leave two stuffed tofu for me, don't eat them all."
"Don't worry, Fifth Brother, you won't eat them all."
"What are you two muttering about?" Zhou Xi put the cleaned ginger into his backpack and said to Wu Lang: "Your second brother and fourth brother are waiting for you, hurry up."
Wu Lang responded, stepped forward to pick up the basket, and turned back to Man Bao to emphasize again and again, "Remember to leave two stuffed tofu for me."
Zhou Xi couldn't help but laugh, "He's so greedy."
Man Bao smelled the aroma wafting from the kitchen, sniffed and said, "Sister, I'm greedy too."
"You are a grown-up boy who lives in poverty. With so many people in the family eating, don't you see your father getting worried?"
"This year is a good harvest year, why are you worried about me?" Man Bao said, "It's not that you are worried, it's because you are used to picking."
"Who said I was used to picking?" Lao Zhoutou suddenly appeared in the yard, staring at the two girls.
Man Bao immediately left his eldest sister behind and ran into the kitchen, "Dad, I'm going to see if my eldest sister has prepared breakfast."
Lao Zhou muttered a few words and went into the main room with his hands behind his back.
It's the winter solstice holiday, and all the children in Lao Zhou's family don't have to go to school, but their husband has assigned a lot of homework, so everyone is working hard on it at this time.
After finishing their homework in the morning, they can go out and play all day.
Manbao's homework was more and deeper than theirs, so she planned to go to Bai's house to do homework with Bai Shanbao after eating delicious food.
But before she could go out, a customer came to her door.
Zhou Lang led a young man in and shouted: "Man Bao, the old man from the old doctor's family is looking for you."
Man Bao was waiting for the stuffed tofu to come out of the pot. Hearing this, he looked out and saw the familiar Lu Dalang.
He is the eldest grandson of the old doctor, and Man Bao can always see him when he asks the old doctor for advice.
Man Bao hurriedly greeted him, "Brother Lu, what do you want from me?"
Lu Gui saluted and said, "My grandfather wants to see you."
"Huh?" Man Bao first looked back at the kitchen, sniffed and then asked reluctantly, "Are you urgent?"
If you're not in a hurry, wait for her to have breakfast first.
Lu Gui said quickly: "My grandfather is sick. Last night he told me to come to you early in the morning and said he had something to say to you."
"Oh, I'm sick. What is it? Is it serious?"
Seeing Man Bao's concern, Lu Gui smiled and said, "I just feel cold occasionally. It's just that my grandfather is old, so it's not easy to recover from illness, and his temper is a bit weird."
Man Bao had always liked the old doctor, but he didn't think he was weird, so he said, "Then wait a moment and I'll get something."
Zhou Lang asked Lu Guixian to sit down and drink a bowl of water. Lao Zhoutou and Qian also came out of the room. They asked about the old doctor's condition with concern, and then she assigned Zhou Lang and said, "Follow your sister."
have a look."
Zhou Lang responded.
The three of them went to Dali Village together. On the way, Manbao asked the old doctor carefully about his condition.
In fact, it's very simple. It's been getting colder these days. I don't know if it's because the old doctor got up early or because the cold wind blew when he got up at night. In short, I felt dizzy and had a runny nose first, so he prescribed some medicine for myself.
After eating it, although it didn't get worse, it didn't get better either. Instead, it became lingering.
