Zhushan tilted his head and said: "Sister, don't get married now, wait until I grow up! Don't worry, I will work hard to make money and earn you a lot of dowry! When the time comes, I will make you prosperous.
Get married!"
This little mouth is so sweet that it doesn't pay for your life.
Zhuqing patted his head: "You'd better earn your wife's money! Don't forget to drink the medicine at night!"
Hearing Zhuqing mention his wife, Zhushan's face actually turned red: "Sister, I'm still young! What kind of wife do you want to marry? It will take a long time to marry a wife!"
The voice was small, but full of yearning.
This child is so cute! Zhuqing couldn't help but laugh.
"Sister, why are you laughing?" Zhushan was a little annoyed by her laughter.
"Nothing! Are you taking medicine now or later?" Zhushan takes medicine three times a day and hasn't drunk the one in the evening yet.
"Sister, I'm a little afraid of bitterness. Can you wait a while before drinking?" Zhushan's little face wrinkled slightly.
Although Zhushan has taken medicine every day as a daily routine, no one likes a decoction that leaves a bitter taste in the mouth.
Zhuqing understood and sympathized with him immensely.
"Look, what is this?" Zhuqing took out a handful of thatch needles from her clothes bag. She pulled them out of the thatch bushes when she was digging mint seedlings in the field.
"What is this?" Zhushan was a little confused looking at the green handful of grass.
It seems that this child has never been seen. No wonder, although he was born in a farm family, he can hardly leave the house due to illness. Naturally, he would not know about this gift of nature.
Zhuqing thought about the time when she was a child in the village and had fun all over the mountains and fields. These needles were a rare and wonderful snack, and she couldn't help but sigh.
Zhuqing skillfully peeled off the green outer skin of the needle, took out the stem inside, and handed it to Zhushan: "Chew it and see."
Zhushan took it, put one in his mouth, chewed it lightly, and grinned slightly: "Sweet!"
"Well! After you drink the medicine later, just chew this. Will it not be bitter?" Zhu Qing also smiled.
"Sister, you are so awesome! How do you know this sweetness?" Zhushan said with admiration on his face.
"I heard what others said." Zhu Qing placed all the needles in front of Zhu Shan, and then planned to pack the dishes and prepare dinner.
Zhushan people are young, so they should be full after eating some wontons. But Wang and she still need to cook more.
Interrupted by Zhu Qing, Wang did not discuss Zhu Qing's marriage with her sister-in-law Guihua: "You also know my Qingya's temper. Hey, I was also afraid of what happened last time. Osmanthus, look
, let’s forget about the marriage. If the Wu family comes to make trouble, let’s find a way!”
Looking at Mrs. Wang who looked helpless, Sister-in-law Guihua also sighed: "Qing Yatou is good everywhere. It's just that she has this temper, I don't know who she resembles. Forget it, forget it. There must be a road to the mountain, but there is no one anymore.
If we get the IOU, maybe the Wu family won't make trouble again."
Mrs. Wang sighed: "I hope so! This kid Qingya has a solid eye."
As she spoke, she walked into her house and saw Zhu Qing sitting by the stove making a fire. She hurriedly walked over and said, "You have been burning the fire all day, you must be too hot! Come out quickly, I will do it! You go first
Go take a shower."
It can be said that Mr. Wang has done a good job in taking care of his children.
"It's almost done, no need." Zhu Qing did not stand up.
"Mom, please stay with Zhushan for a while! Shan'er said that being alone all day today is very boring." Zhuqing motioned to Wang to accompany her brother.
"Eh? Where did the needles come from? Is this thing Zhushan edible?" Wang walked to Zhushan and found the needles Zhuqing had specially placed on the table. She couldn't help but be surprised.
"I pulled it. This acupuncture needle is good for Zhushan and can reduce fever. It also has a sweet taste. Let Zhushan drink the medicine and chew it and he will feel much better." Zhuqing replied.
"Is this what the people at the pharmacy told you?" Ms. Wang was a little skeptical.
"Yeah." Zhuqing answered without any psychological pressure.
Mao Zhen is sweet and cold in nature. It has the effects of clearing heat, promoting fluid production, cooling blood and stopping bleeding. Eating it in summer can also dispel heat.
Zhushan had a high fever before, which was not only due to his weak body, wind-heat and cold, but also to the heat stroke caused by the hot weather.
Eating some of this grass needle is indeed beneficial to him. It can not only relieve the heat, but also make his mouth have a sweet taste, produce fluid and quench thirst.
"Hey, these needles are everywhere in the wild fields. It turns out that they are good for people. I didn't dare to let Shan'er eat them in the past, for fear of being bad for him. Then I will pull some back, and this thing is not good.
If you want to spend money, just put in some effort." Wang was very happy after hearing this.
Then she remembered something and said to Zhuqing: "By the way, Qingya, the mugwort you brought back yesterday, I happened to see it in the field behind the village today, so I cut a bunch and brought it back. This stuff drives away mosquitoes.
It’s really good. We’ve had it at home for the past two days and there haven’t been any mosquitoes at all.”
Zhuqing couldn't help but raise his head when he heard the words, and at a glance he saw a bunch of plants by the corner of the house near the back door. Isn't it mugwort or something?
Zhuqing was very happy when she saw Wang came back with a big bundle of mugwort.
"Mom, I heard them say that after the mugwort is dried, you can take it to the drug store to exchange for money! Let's dry it tomorrow!"
"Can this thing be exchanged for money?" Ms. Wang didn't believe it.
"Well, the people in the pharmacy said this is medicine when dried, and they are useful." Zhuqing's confirmation made Wang very happy.
"Okay, I'll put it in the sun tomorrow! I'll finish the work in the field tomorrow and then go mow it! It's natural, it doesn't cost money, and it can be exchanged for money, which is great!"
There are really few places where money comes from in this family, and it often doesn’t come fast enough to be used.
So Wang was overjoyed when she heard Zhuqing say that mugwort could be exchanged for money.
"Mom, take some of this and give it to Zhushan to soak his feet, it will be very beneficial!" Zhu Qing thought that mugwort itself has the effect of sterilization and disinfection. Zhushan is weak, so soaking his feet with mugwort every day will also be good for him.
"Hey, this is really good stuff!" Wang felt indescribably happy at this moment.
"Qingya, you really learned a lot in Qian's pharmacy! You have to be smart like this. By the way, let's not tell anyone about the fact that mugwort can be exchanged for money. As soon as we talk about Murakami,
If there are too many, the mugwort will probably not be worth our family." Zhu Qing understood Wang's words.
Under the current circumstances, the family is very poor and has too much time to take care of themselves. Finally, there is a possible way to get money, and it is really not willing to give it to others. Zhuqing can completely understand Wang's little thoughts.
"Yes, I know. This mugwort can be exchanged for money, so once the people at the pharmacy tell us, we haven't gotten the money yet! We can't tell others, or they might laugh at us." Zhuqing's words were agreed by Wang.
"Yes, that's the truth." Wang nodded.
"It's just, how can we exchange this for money? We don't understand..."
"Mom, why don't I go to town and give it a try in a few days? Anyway, I'm young, so I'm not afraid of others laughing at me even if I make a mistake." Zhu Qing suggested.
"Well, Qingya, are you really not afraid? Otherwise, let your father go. After all, he knows so many people in this town..." Ms. Wang hesitated.
