her grandmother and maids downstairs.Several onlookers, perhaps fearing retribution, also left with nervous laughter.Li Lao Si paid the money, Tao Hong Ying took the thing.Li Laosì hadn't forgotten to...After some more casual conversation, Huiniang and Xiaocui went back because their child was still being watched by Auntie Wu.
When both children were mischievous, not hurrying home could easily tire Wu Da's mother and cause her to fall ill...
Tao Hongying and Grandma He spent half an hour picking mushrooms before they suddenly realized something. They looked at each other in surprise and asked, "Oh my, when did you come back, Grandma Is everything settled with the Wei family Will the fabrics and jewelry be returned"
“Mrs. Si, are you forgetting that I just returned last night” Grandma He laughed, unable to contain herself. “I’ve just come back! Wei Erniu has successfully been adopted under his uncle's name, but his parents said raising him was difficult and wouldn’t give him any of the military pay he earned or the family property. Not even as a repayment for raising him.”
“His mother is… a terribletempered and unreasonable woman. Luckily, I used the excuse that I was taking her out of our house, and mentioning the Imperial gift, to scare her off. That way, I managed to get the fabric and jewelry back!”
"For this, Wei Lao Da's wife even made a fuss because the fabric got into her box and she put on the jewelry."
Tao Hongying frowned and sighed, “These Wei Lao Da’s couple seem to have no conscience. Now that the old couple of the Wei family can still work, in the future when they are older and more sick, they will probably rely on Xiaocui and Erniu.”
Li Laotai also said: "That's right, Erniu is an honest person, and Xiaocui is also sincere. I'm afraid there will be more trouble with this."
After discussing for a few moments, Old Li looked at the sky and told everyone, "Those are other people's affairs, we can't interfere. Hurry up and tidy up, we still need to burn paper at night. Fu Niuer, eat your fill and go back to your room. Come out again tomorrow morning."
Tao Hongying also remembered this, and quickly said: “That’s right, tonight is the opening of the Ghost Gate, children can't run around, and there’s Wenjuan too, I'll go take a look and tell her not to come out either.”
As they spoke, the crowd dispersed.
Wenjuan was pregnant and had been very sleepy lately. Sheeding her responsibilities, she slept soundly all day long. She even ate dinner in her room.
Jia Yin was also confined in the room for a meal. Smelling the burning smell in the air, she told Shui Ling and Shui Yun, bolted the door, and then entered the space.
The little fox's first act was to bully the little green snake. The green snake, being whipped around in its cage and spinning like a top, hissed and stuck out its tongue in protest.
Jia Yin sorted the medicinal herbs she had gathered during the day and carefully planted a small bag of seeds in the nursery. After diligently tending to them for a while, she harvested many seedlings and then moved them to the nearby field.
If Zhang the Divine Physician were here, his eyes would surely pop out of their sockets and dance around.
The few mu of land originally used for growing food is now mostly planted with medicinal herbs.
Astragalus, Angelica sinensis, and Tianma are the most common medicinal herbs, but even precious ginseng and Shouwu can be found here. They occupy a corner of the field, numbering over a hundred plants.
These herbs, whether they prefer shady spots, sunny and dry conditions, climbing vines, or spreading roots, were all in high spirits. Surprisingly, they thrived together in one patch of land.
It has to be said, it's a miracle upon a miracle!
Jia Yin carried her hands on her back, walking back and forth in the herb field with her chubby legs, looking very proud.
This is the territory she had fought hard for over a month!
Although she hasn't reached her envisioned goals yet, it's enough to support her through medical school.
Depending on the medicinal herbs, seeds and seedlings from Baihuayuan was still a bit slow, she always remembered to go into the mountains to collect medicine.
Then, just grab whatever you see. How cool is that!
Unfortunately, she didn't dare to tell her family.
Besides others, Grandma would probably be the first to object!
Let's just take it slow and steady... Safety first!
After inspecting the "Mountain and River," she returned to the front courtyard. The stored grain from before sat quietly in the corner, looking pitifully meager.
Although Tianwu seems stable for now, if there's any upheaval, it could change dramatically overnight.
After all, their family had gone through two migrations, and no one could guarantee that a third wouldn't come.
And no matter where one flees, food is the root of life...
The rear piece of land is planted with medicinal herbs, and food has to be bought from outside.
But large-scale purchases are more conspicuous and attract attention.
I'm afraid we have to make another trip to Zhengjiazhuang. We need Zhengjiazhuang to buy grain in batches over multiple times and stockpile it.
As for the silver, I should have enough to buy grain since I made a few thousand taels from selling watermelons before...
Jia Yin sat by the window, thinking to herself as she wrote down what she needed to do recently. Then, with a sigh of resignation, she picked up her medical books and continued to recite them over and over again.
Zhang Shenyi wished she could become his disciple overnight. Such a hefty medical tome, and he expected her to memorize it in three days!
Luckily, she had a cheat device. At her small size, she was only a few years old, but her brain was working at its best. Otherwise, this mission would have been impossible to complete.
However, this old man's train of thought is truly amazing. How come he just doesn't know how to think outside the box
He was so focused on finding the expert hidden in Li's family that he didn't notice how a child like her could memorize an entire medical book in just three days. That in itself was quite impressive!
If this continues, he won't find the "expert", and the "expert" will be exhausted by him!
Jiayin may complain, but she still studies very seriously.
After all, having many skills doesn't weigh you down. Whatever you learn and master is your own...
A rooster's crow heralds the dawn!
Suguijin Beach, silent all night, welcomed another dawn amidst the rooster's crowing.
Though the mischievous boys of each household were kept cooped up at home by their mothers for a whole night, it felt like a year to them.
After breakfast, they hurried to the schoolhouse. Their bookbags, patched together from scraps of cloth, thumped against their buttocks and almost fell apart.
The villagers also gradually went out to work. Today, another batch of lumber and bricks arrived, and the men had to go help with it.
The women went to the field to harvest potatoes.
The potato seedlings had withered and were half-dried, lying in the furrow.
At this time, you need to quickly dig up the potatoes from the ground. Otherwise, if it rains, the potatoes will rot.
Fortunately, the sky is overcast today and there's no scorching sun. There's no need to worry about the potatoes turning green from the sun exposure. It's indeed a perfect day for planting potatoes.
The women waved their sickles, quickly harvesting the potato vines and piling them by the road to dry. Once dry, they could be taken home to burn as fuel.
The village head brought along Uncle Wei and several others, personally using a horse-drawn plow to break up the ridges deeply, exposing potatoes the size of fists.
The women rushed forward, quickly picking up the potatoes and throwing them into a pile.
A gentle breeze swept across the surface, quickly drying the damp soil on the potatoes. A simple tap revealed dry and clean potatoes, ready to be packed into burlap bags.
Harvest brings toil, but even more joy.
Tao Hongying, wearing a headscarf, was also busy among the women. She couldn't help but laugh and said, "Everyone work harder, let's finish before noon, tonight I'll cook two pots of potatoes and chicken, and we'll each take a bowl home to eat!"
The women were all delighted upon hearing this, responding with cheers and working even faster.
It's a joyful time for Xin Cun, but not so much for the wealthy families in the city.
Just now, an imperial decree came down from the palace, like a bolt from the blue, leaving all the families stunned!
