Shen Bingxian's condition has been stabilized for the time being, but Shuangxi and the Shen brothers all understand that this is not a long-term solution, and there is no telling when he will fall ill again... even if it is hopeless.
Although Shen Bingxian's illness has made the whole family sad, they still have to get through life.
During the day, Shuangxi followed Shen Ziyan or Shen Yan up the mountain. Of course, one person had to be left at home, because no one could tell what would worsen Shen Bingxian's illness.
If there is no one at home at that time, it will be in trouble!
Golden autumn is the season of sweet-scented osmanthus and chrysanthemum. Shuangxi picked a lot of sweet-scented osmanthus and chrysanthemum and dried them in the sun. This stuff is used to make tea, which is elegant and delicious.
But Shuangxi went up the mountain not for the flowers and plants, but for the mushrooms!
After an autumn rain, the last crop of mushrooms emerged from the soil. Shuangxi planned to seize the last opportunity, pick some mushrooms, dry them in the sun, and wait for the winter to use the dry goods to stew chickens, but they were not very delicious. .
Shuangxi looked at the black flower on a piece of rotten wood and showed an expression of joy.
This is... fungus?
Shuangxi did not expect that there would be such benefits. Fungus is a good thing. It is really a lucky thing to see this thing!
In modern times, fungus is nothing, and can be seen in any supermarket, but after ancient times, double happiness has never been seen.
I thought there was no such thing as fungus in this era! After all, there are some slight differences between the species in this era and modern society.
Shuangxi carefully picked off the fungus one by one, and then covered the dead branch with weeds, thinking that it would be great if it could grow back in the future.
The harvest from this day was really quite a lot.
By the time we were waiting for the two of us to go home, it was already afternoon.
Looking at the carriage parked in front of his house, Shuangxi frowned, why is he here?
Butler Fu was about to go out to find Shuang Xi. As soon as he went out, he saw Shuang Xi and Shen Ziyan walking back together, with a look of joy on his face. He quickly greeted: "Madam of the Shen family! You are back!"
It is also a good thing for him that he doesn't have to go out to find the Shen family's wife. After all, no one wants to run errands!
When they arrived at the house, Su Yu happened to be sitting leisurely on the long table in Shuangxi's house, drinking tea.
The Shen family's coarse tea. Normally, people like Su Yu shouldn't be used to drinking it, but looking at Su Yu's current appearance, it's full of enjoyment!
When Shuangxi met Su Yu, her expression was indifferent. She had gradually let go of the matter, but she was reluctant to have contact with him as before.
Looking at Shuang Xi's reluctant expression, Su Yu raised her lips slightly, as if she was in a good mood after seeing Shuang Xi's expression.
"I don't know why Mr. Su came to my little temple!" Shuangxi looked at Su Yu and asked, his tone not very good.
However, Su Yu didn't seem to care much about Shuang Xi's bad attitude, but spoke gracefully: "Xi'er, this time I'm here to plant vegetables in the winter."
Hearing Su Yu mention this matter, Shuangxi felt relieved. It would have been very strange if he had come here for no reason. But now if it was for farming, it was quite normal.
Shuangxi nodded, indicating that he understood, and waited for Su Yu's next words: "The things you mentioned to me last time are almost done. I don't know what to do next?"
Shuangxi said clearly: "I will draw you a blueprint, and you can have someone build a row of greenhouses according to this blueprint."
It is cold in winter, and if there is no greenhouse to provide heat, the vegetables may not grow.
About an hour later, Shuangxi finished the drawing and handed it to Su Yu.
Su Yu looked at the exquisite picture drawn with charcoal and glanced at Shuangxi... It turned out that she still had a lot of things she didn't know!
It seems that he still doesn't understand her well enough.
Su Yu thought for a moment and said, "I wonder when you have time? Can you come to the site to guide the construction of this greenhouse? After all, no one has time."
Shuangxi shook his head: "If something happens, ask me again, and I won't go with you." It wasn't because she wanted to avoid Su Yu, but because she wanted to stay with Shen Bingxian in her last days.
When Su Yu heard Shuang Xi say this, there was no change in her face. She smiled slightly and said, "Then I'll bother you another day."
Only Su Yu knew in her heart how disappointed he was that he couldn't get close to her because of the greenhouse incident! Is this how she avoided him?
Surprisingly, Su Yu actually said the matter and left this time, instead of staying at Shen's house to have a meal.
Shen Bingxian's appetite has been very poor recently, so Shuangxi has been cooking delicious food for him in different ways. Tonight, he had fish head and tofu soup.
I came to the village to sell the tofu, so I saved Double Happiness and went out to buy it.
After finishing the things, Shuangxi thought for a moment and said, "Ziyan, let me go and deliver some to Quanzi."
No matter what, he is Dashan's younger brother. Dashan went to war for his family, and it would be very difficult for Quanzi to be alone at home. For no other reason than Dashan, she had the obligation to take care of him.
After all, she was also half of Quanzi's sister-in-law! After all, she and the Shen family were already planning to accept Dashan.
Of course Shen Ziyan would not object to Shuangxi's approach.
Shuangxi carried the things and arrived at Yun's house.
By this time, the sky was already dark, and the chickens and ducks in Yun's yard had been circled by the spring, making it very quiet.
Shuangxi called from the door of Yun's house: "Quanzi, are you there?"
After a while, the door was opened.
Quanzi, who looked haggard, was a little shocked when he saw Shuangxi. He didn't expect that it was Shuangxi who came to his home.
Quanzi felt really uncomfortable after being separated from his brother whom he had depended on since childhood. He was not living a very good life these days. He kept dreaming that his brother, like his father whom he had rarely seen, was beaten down.
Get off the horse and never come back...
Seeing the haggard look on Quanzi's face, her usually good-looking eyes that always exuded a charming light were dim at this time, and Shuangxi felt a little guilty in her heart.
In the past, how Quanzi lived had nothing to do with her, but now, she is obliged to take good care of him. This is the only thing she can do for Dashan!
Quanzi looked at Shuangxi blankly. It took him a long time to react and said to Shuangxi: "Xi'er, why are you here? Come in quickly." His tone was full of joy and eagerness.
Shuangxi entered the house. It was darker inside than outside. The Yun family's house was very warm. It seemed that the spring had just been burned.
It's just that this huge room, with only this one man there at this time, seemed very empty. It was obviously very warm, but for some reason, it gave Shuangxi a cold and lonely feeling.
There was a table placed on the Shen family's Kang. Shuangxi glanced at it and saw a small plate of pickles and a bowl of rice porridge on it.
Shuangxi frowned at these and said to Quanzi, "Is this what you want to eat?"
Considering the conditions of the Yun family, it shouldn't be such a hard life. The reason that can be explained is that because Dashan left, Quanzi himself was not in the mood to eat, so he dealt with it casually.
Looking at Shuangxi's eyes, Quanzi was a little embarrassed, scratched his head with his hand, and said awkwardly: "Brother is not at home, and whatever I eat is tasteless..." After saying this, he saw Shuangxi's expression changed.
Feeling a little guilty, he quickly changed his tone and said, "I'm really too busy lately. You know, I don't have enough work to do, so I can't eat anymore!"
After hearing this, Shuangxi felt a little sad and put the thing he was carrying on the Yun family's table. It was a half-sized basin.
There was a lid on it, and Shuangxi opened it, and a delicious aroma suddenly came out of it.
First, I took off the three corn tortillas on the top, and then the white and tender tofu and a half-sized fish head were exposed underneath.
It's a bit inappropriate to say it's a fish head, because the thing in this pot has a lot more meat than the fish head, and it seems to be cut from the middle of a fat catfish.
There is indeed a lot of fresh and tender fish on it.
Quanzi saw what Shuangxi brought and couldn't help but swallowed. He had been in no mood to eat in the past few days since his eldest brother left, but the things Shuangxi brought today really aroused his appetite.
Without caring about anything else, he quickly picked up the chopsticks, picked up the tofu, and put it into his mouth.
When Shuangxi saw it, it was already too late to stop him.
"Ahem..." Quanzi couldn't help coughing, but he still didn't spit out the contents of his mouth, but swallowed it.
Then he opened his mouth, picked up the water on the table, and took a sip: "Hiss... it's really too hot!"
"Pfft." Shuangxi couldn't help laughing. He was too anxious to eat hot tofu!
Being laughed at by Shuangxi, Quanzi felt a little embarrassed and said viciously: "Why didn't you tell me earlier that it was hot!"
Shuangxi suddenly burst into laughter, looked at Quanzi who looked like he was going crazy and said, "You can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, why are you so anxious!"
Quanzi really had nothing to do with the little woman in front of her, so she sat down dejectedly, slowly picked up a pancake, dipped it in some fish soup, and ate it.
He kept praising: "It's so delicious!"
Shuangxi looked at Quanzi's eating face, and a smile appeared on his face involuntarily. Then he looked at the clothes that Quanzi had changed and put them in the corner of the kang. He walked over and said, "Quanzi, I'll take these clothes."
I’ve washed it for you.”
Quanzi saw it and quickly swallowed the pancake in his mouth, then rushed over and pulled the thing out of Shuangxi's hand: "Xier, no need, I can wash it myself!"
As he spoke, a suspicious blush appeared on his face.
Shuangxi looked at Quanzi with a smile and said: "Bring it here." What happened to him? He didn't even let himself wash his clothes? (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes.
