Chapter 272 The vicious female partner escapes to farm (22)
The first time Erlang brought her here, she saw that the mountain wall at the mouth of the spring was very thin, so she punched it through with a light punch.
A hole was broken in the mountain wall, forming a pit. The gurgling hot springs flowed out and filled the pit.
Every time Xu Yin came here after that, she would take a bath and wash her hair in this pit.
After soaking, she washed the clothes and hung them to dry on the nearby branches. She dug herbs and collected firewood nearby.
This is the moment when she feels most relaxed and comfortable in this world. There is no need to hide or pretend, and she can even sing popular songs from her previous life when she is in a mood.
Unfortunately, in a different world, Xu Yin, the tone-deaf leader, would still sing out of tune.
I simply feel that this simulated male voice is unique and I should appreciate it myself.
Humming a song makes you more energetic at work.
Unknowingly, a bamboo basket was filled with firewood.
Not many herbs were collected.
It seems that if you want to clear "Chinese Herbal Medicine Illustrated Book" in this world, you have to rely on Orion Village!
Cao Cao has arrived.
After her hair was dry, she put her hair back into a man bun and carried the bamboo basket. She had just come down the mountain when she saw Shi Fengnian running towards her:
“Hero brother, you have guests coming to your house, they say they are from Orion Village. I see they have picked out a lot of things. Are they here to thank you?”
Xu Yin understood what he was talking about and waved to him: "Thank you very much! I'll go back and have a look. Let's go first!"
Three steps followed by two steps back home.
He Changxing's three sons and two young men from the same village came to deliver the herbs on their shoulders.
“My dear benefactor, can you see if you can use these herbs?”
“Useable.”
Xu Yin glanced at it. Most of them were common herbs such as dandelion, isatis root, and plantain. Among them were some blue-gray plants with roots that were not like roots and stems that were not like stems.
This is... Dendrobium?
Xu Yin’s eyes lit up.
Dendrobium is a good thing!
She asked: "Are there many mountains on this mountain?"
“There are quite a lot at the bottom of the cliff, but we were not sure if they were herbs, so we didn’t dig more. Dad asked us to bring them and said that we would like to show you and dig them out next time if they are needed.”
Xu Yin nodded: "This is a good thing. After brewing it, soak it in water and drink it. It can strengthen your body."
The three brothers of the He family scratched their heads: "We don't know how to concoct it. Next time we should bring it to our benefactor!"
Xu Yin touched Dendrobium, and there was a "ding" sound in her mind, and the "Chinese Herbal Medicine Illustrated Book" lit up "Dendrobium officinale".
Huh?
She remembered lighting up the dendrobium in the illustrated book.
Looking back, I saw that there was indeed a [Dendrobium] illustrated book that lit up.
Could it be that the effects of Dendrobium officinale are different from those of ordinary Dendrobium, so there is a special illustrated guide?
Forgetting it for now, she poured out the herbs from the basket and took Erlang to sort them together.
Fortunately, the He family had dealt with her once and knew her requirements. Herbs of the same type were tied with fine linen ropes, making it easy to sort.
After sorting, it’s time to weigh.
But she didn’t have a scale at home, so she weighed it in her hand and roughly estimated the weight. She only paid a lot more silver.
The three brothers of the He family have seen her cheerfulness in taking out money, but the two young men from the same village have never seen her. The first time I saw a full tael of silver, I was so excited on the way home that I couldn't even speak:
“Two, two baskets of herbs gave us one tael of silver. Are the herbs so valuable now?”
“It’s still the same price when I take it to the drugstore. It’s a kindness and kindness that I gave to us.”
"I see... Shui Gen, we will follow you three brothers from now on!"
“That’s right! If you work until the end of the year, how can you get a wife to go home to? Hold your mother-in-law in your arms and celebrate the New Year! You don’t have to watch your three brothers drool!”
In this room, Erlang looked at the silver coins that were given out, his little face wrinkled up with distress: "Sister-in-law..."
"Here, sister-in-law will teach you about the uses of dendrobium, and teach you how to write these two words." Xu Yin explained the functions of dendrobium to the two children one by one.
The third sister seemed to understand. The more Erlang listened, the brighter his eyes became: "Wow! Is it so useful?"
“Of course! Don’t think that only ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum are treasures among medicinal materials. The world is so big that there are many medicinal materials of high value that you don’t know.”
As Xu Yin spoke, she took out a pen and paper and wrote down the word dendrobium to teach them how to read.
“Stone wrestling?”
"Hahaha..." Xu Yin was amused, "This word has the same pronunciation as the word "hu" for "湖水", so they cannot be pronounced separately! But you have already memorized the word "jiao" and "dou", and you are worthy of a reward!"
What is the best reward?
The three brothers of the He family also brought a pheasant over.
Xu Yin didn't make chicken soup this time. After marinating, she stuffed some mushrooms, fungus, and wild onion segments into the chicken's belly, sealed the chicken **** with a thin bamboo skewer, smeared a layer of oil on the chicken, and wrapped it in Several layers of large leaves were spread evenly with mud, then thrown into the baking kiln, and a beggar's chicken was roasted for them to try.
Erlang said while eating: "It's so delicious! This chicken is the most delicious chicken I have ever eaten!"
"How many chickens have you ever eaten? Is this the best? Don't you want to eat better ones in the future?" Xu Yin teased him.
He hesitated for a while before saying, "I can't imagine a more delicious chicken than this."
Xu Yin smiled but said nothing.
Of course there is, silly boy! Have you ever had fried chicken?
So far, she has never seen a child who can resist the temptation of fried chicken.
If so, it’s probably because the master’s level is not good enough.
However, with all the cooking oil available now, there is really no way to fry it for them.
Besides, the chicken hasn’t grown up yet.
“Wait until the Chinese New Year! My sister-in-law will make a chicken dish that is more delicious than beggar’s chicken for you two to try.”
From this day on, Erlang and Sanmei counted the days on their fingers every day.
When Xu Yin saw this, she was both funny and sad, so she gathered some materials and made a simple old almanac for them with pictures and texts. The first half of the page contained the month, day, zodiac signs, and seasons, and the second half of the page was a poem and verse that conformed to the solar terms. A picture to suit the occasion.
Erlang, who had never seen a lunar calendar, not only looked at it every day to count the days, but also regarded it as a treasure. He carried it with him wherever he went and touched it from time to time to see if it was there.
The third sister also wanted it, and for the first time the brother and sister had a quarrel because of the uneven distribution.
Xu Yin had a headache. She really couldn't do the job of mediating the conflicting little baby.
“How about my sister-in-law make another book for my third sister?”
But with regard to calendars, one is enough to see the days. Why do you need so many?
Xu Yin thought for a while and made a children's illustrated magazine for Sanmei.
The content of the painting is the interaction between brother and sister since they escaped from famine.
In fact, Erlang is a good brother. During the escape, he always protected his third sister as a protector.
Xu Yin delicately expresses Erlang's kindness to Sanmei in the form of comics.
After reading the pictorial, Third Sister no longer called Erlang "stinky brother".
“Second brother is good to me!”
"Yes! If there is food, give it to the third sister first; if there is water to drink, feed the third sister first; when it is sunny, hold an umbrella for the third sister; when it rains, give the third sister a raincoat; when encountering bad people, he will hide the third sister in a bamboo basket. ." Xu Yin guided eloquently.
Third sister blinked: "Sister-in-law, I don't want the calendar anymore. I'll give it to my second brother."
"The third sister is so good. She knew that Kong Rong gave up the pear at such a young age." Xu Yin told the story to the brother and sister by the way.
Erlang once again looked at her with great reverence: "Sister-in-law, you know so much! If you were a man, you would definitely become the number one scholar."
Xu Yin rubbed his little head in a funny way: "It's okay, Erlang can help my sister-in-law realize her dream of becoming the No. 1 Scholar."
Hearing this, Erlang's eyes shone with excitement, but he quickly lowered his shoulders: "No, it will cost a lot of money to get the top prize."
…”
Stop worrying about the adults, kid!
