Two days later, Woniu Village.
Su Hu's family crossed the river by boat with two small ponies, and returned to their home. Not long after, the newly built courtyard was surrounded by villagers who heard the news.
The children leaned against the wall, looking excitedly at a male and a female, one black and one red, two strong foals with shiny coats, chirping and laughing non-stop.
"Huzi, okay, this time I went to Mingshui County to gain a lot. I bought all the horses. It can be seen that the ancestors of the old Su family accumulated virtues and protected their descendants to make a fortune."
The old village head did his part, and under the envious eyes of all the villagers, he opened the door and entered the courtyard. He came to the two foals, stroked their soft manes, and praised them.
"Hey, isn't this sister Qiao who is getting older and wants to learn riding and archery."
Seeing the old village chief come in, Su Hu hurriedly put down the work in his hands, and walked forward in twos and twos: "My mother and I made a plan to buy a full-grown horse. The child is small and not easy to subdue. It is better to buy a pony. It's suitable, and I can help the family when I grow up."
"Raising a horse is not easy!"
The old village head is quite old and has a lot of experience. He said with a smile: "If the fertilizer is not up to date, it is easy to lose weight. The weather is cold and you need a stable. If you are sick, you need to see a doctor. You just raise it as a child."
"Hey, isn't it, the little pony is delicate."
Su Hu agreed in his heart: "That little red horse, just a day after I bought it, became ill on the road, had diarrhea, lay down on the ground so weak that I couldn't walk."
"Fortunately, Sister Yu knows some medical skills. She picked some herbs from the road and fed them. She stopped stretching. She slowly recovered her strength and followed her back."
"Sister Yu knows medical skills? Will she treat horses?"
The old village chief's heart trembled, and he stroked the horse's head in disbelief.
"Of course, my sister Yu."
"Don't listen to his nonsense, you are only a little kid, and you know what medical skills."
Hearing the village head's question, Li Xiu'e came out of the house, gave Su Hu a supercilious look, and interrupted the boast he was about to blurt out.
"It's just a few weeds that I happened to know. Horses can stop their diarrhea if they eat them. It's just a coincidence. His father, don't you think so?"
Su Hu accepted his daughter-in-law's white eyes, came back to his senses in a jerk, rubbed his nose and smirked.
Sister Yu is young, and a five-year-old child knows medical skills. Not to mention that the folks in the village will not believe it, even his husband and wife, who are used to the precocious intelligence of their youngest daughter, can't believe it for a while.
A lucky doll who is born with good luck, and a little genius doctor who understands medical skills and saves people are completely different concepts.
The former can be attributed to good fate and easy acceptance.
The latter is not the case. Without years of hard study, research, and accumulated experience, how can you use medical skills to cure diseases and save lives.
Li Xiu'e was delicate and scrupulous. She didn't want outsiders to know more about her little daughter's secrets, for fear of arousing the suspicion of the villagers and causing unnecessary disasters.
"Hehe, sister Yu is blessed, the weeds you pick casually can also cure diseases."
The old village head is mature and sophisticated, seeing that his husband and wife are prevaricating, the words are very smooth.
"You always say that my sister Yu is blessed."
Now that Su Hu had an excuse, he could justifiably boast, and the loving father who doted on his daughter began to stir again.
"Okay, his father, it's rare for the village chief to come here, please come in and sit in the house, don't stick around outside."
Li Xiu'e patted him angrily, and drove him into the room.
"You're welcome."
The old village chief plucked his horse hair, satisfied, and walked out with his hands behind his back: "You two just came back from the county seat, and you are also tired, pack up and rest early."
"The village chief wait a moment."
With sharp eyes and quick hands, Su Hu took out two packs of tea from the basket and stuffed them into the hands of the old village head: "This is jasmine tea bought in the county to honor your elders."
"Hehe, okay, if Huzi has a heart, I won't be polite."
The old village head happily carried the tea leaves, hummed a little song and walked out of the courtyard.
