Chapter 61: The Jin Family Sisters and Brothers

"The third aunt said that I can exchange a few catties of millet!" Xia Shiming replied excitedly. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

"Okay, let's go show your grandpa and your dad. Xia Zhongtan was also happy, but his appearance was still a little exaggerated.

Xia Lily actually noticed, so she couldn't understand why Xia Zhongtan suddenly looked like this, it should have been changed after he said "It's better to read ten thousand books than to travel ten thousand miles", but what's wrong with this? No, no...... No...... There is no such famous saying in this time and space, and the surname Cao is "original", right?

Seeing that the herbs that could be picked at the foot of the mountain for money, the Xia family was very happy, originally Xia Zhongtan also said that he would take them to the county seat tomorrow and sell them, but Xia Lily stopped him, saying that the dried and remediated medicinal materials could be sold at a good price, so he decided to wait a few more days.

After eating lunch, Xia Lily went to rummage through the medicinal materials she brought, Xia Shiming got a typical paragonimiasis, she couldn't take medicine, she had a lot of medicines in her bag, Changshan, Penny, Baibu Root, Perilla, etc.

To the Xia family, Xia Lily only said that it was a "tonic" for Xia Shiming, but because Xia Shiming had a cough that hurt her throat and lungs, she added some herbs to cure the disease, so this "tonic" could only be drunk by Xia Shiming alone.

The Xia family didn't suspect it, Xia Shiming saw that the third aunt was really tight-lipped, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, as for Xia Lily said that his phlegm would carry insect eggs, and if he vomited, it would infect others, which really made him afraid.

A few days later, Xia Zhongtan finally went to the county seat with a basket of banlangen, and Xia Lily was going to go, but the Xia family didn't agree with anything, so she had to give up, and then waited until the evening, Xia Zhongtan brought back a basket of eggs: "The medicinal materials picked by the third sister can really be sold for money, I specially found a very large pharmacy in the county called Baorentang, and the shopkeeper inside accepted my medicine for twenty yuan, and said that I could return it to them if there was more!"

The Xia family was naturally happy to hear this, the eldest sister-in-law was like a mother, and You Shi didn't forget to care about the uncle's meal: "You won't have lunch again, and you will buy all the eggs with the money, right?"

"No, I spent three cents to buy a bowl of haggis soup, one penny to buy cakes, and the remaining thirty-seven wen, plus twenty wen for selling medicinal herbs, a total of fifty-seven wen to buy eggs, or ten wen for three, bought seventeen. Xia Zhong talked about honestly reporting the account, because the sister-in-law said that if he dared to skip dinner again, he would not be allowed to enter the city.

You Shi listened to it and went to count the eggs with peace of mind, Xia Zhongtan was eight years younger than her husband, six years younger than her, and he was usually not a stable person, and her eldest sister-in-law was like a mother, and she also treated him as a son.

Xia Shiming subconsciously lowered his head and calculated the account, three for ten cents and two for seven cents, which is a bit of a loss, but it is still more cost-effective than five cents in the neighboring village.

The Xia family has a mother and a baby, so the egg is regarded as a baby, Xia Lily feels strange, since it is inseparable from the egg, why not raise chickens? By the way, Xia Shiming said that the family originally raised two sheep and two chickens, and the sheep were lost by him, what about the chickens?

Because he was thinking about whether it was Xia Shiming's responsibility again, and worried that the child would think too much, Xia Lily privately pretended to be unintentional and asked You Shi, is it that the chicken is not good to buy, so he only buys eggs?

You Shi smiled bitterly when he heard this: "How can chickens be difficult to buy? There are naturally eggs and there are eggs, it turns out that there are two at home, and Shi Ming's child goes to catch insects every day and feeds the chickens fat, but ...... If people from the county town don't go back at noon, we have to take care of the food, right?

Xia Baihe understood: "I think the Xiao family is also a family with four walls, won't every family in the village be eaten up?"

"At least you can't put the good things open...... "The eggs can still be hidden, the chickens are not easy, who knows if the people in the village will tell the truth when they see it, and the trouble will lead to the east? You Shi doesn't want to serve those people in the yamen.

"So it's better for us to finish the things sent by the second sister as soon as possible. Xia Lily looked at the flour, rice, oil and bacon and sausages piled up in the kitchen, there were too many to hide.

You Shi nodded, there are still herbs at the foot of the mountain that can be sold for money, so she has a better understanding of life, so these foods should be supplemented by everyone as much as possible, otherwise one day the county will come to the county again Won't it be cheaper for others?

After buying the banlan root, Xia Lily has a reason to go out again: "The banlan root that can be sold is almost picked, and I saw other herbs last time that they seem to be familiar, and when I came back to the book, I found that there were more valuable ones, and I wanted to go again." ā€

The Xia family didn't suspect that she deliberately only dug one at a time, because they didn't know much about medicinal materials than the original owner, and if they really wanted to let them find it, they wouldn't dare to recognize it even if they looked at the book.

Xia Hou thought that the last time Xia Lily went out into the mountain was quiet, no one found that no one was alarmed, so he agreed to let her go out again, he was thinking that there could be no endless herbs in the mountain, a banlan root is already very good, at most there are one or two more, after picking it will not worry, and when the weather is cooler, he will try to let the younger daughter go to the second daughter's house to live.

Xia Lily was optimistic about picking this time last time, and she planned to bring two small hoes...... Originally, the Xia family did not have this kind of small hoe, but Master Yuan, who came to the Xia family to pan kang, bought it for her, of course, the maid did it for her.

"That's it, it's called Banxia in the medical book, and the tubers under it are ripe during the transition between summer and autumn, so now is a good time to dig, it's valuable at the roots, and you have to be careful when digging......" Xia Lily took a small hoe and pointed it to Xia Shiming while digging.

Xia Shiming usually cares a lot about these herbs that can be exchanged for food, Xia Lily's medical book was borrowed by him to read it carefully, and he was also beside him to ask for advice when she was drying the blue root, but now that Xia Lily is teaching on the spot, he is obviously absent-minded, and he also feels very hidden looking around.

This child seems to be waiting for someone? It can't be a little beautiful woman, right? Ancient children are very precocious, Xia Lily only pretended not to see, bowed her head and carefully dug a Banxia, she didn't mix and denounce the child's secrets, but I don't know if the person Xia Shiming was waiting for was the one she "should" know.

"You see, this is the complete Banxia. Xia Lily showed Xia Shiming the whole Banxia dug up, and emphasized, "Don't hurt the lowest tuber, Banxia's medicinal value is all here." ā€

"Third aunt, actually...... In fact...... I made an appointment to come here......" Xia Shiming is very kind and respectful to his aunt, Xia Lily can not see it, but his heart is always full of self-assertive feelings.

"Oh, is it your friend?, what does it matter if they come and come, if they also like to dig herbs, I can teach them?"

"They're not here to dig up herbs!" Xia Shiming first stated this, he would not "sell" his family's wealth, and the people he knew would not be greedy people, "They are here to heal the disease, I told them that the third aunt has good medical skills." ā€

"Who are they? Are they from our village? Do you know what disease they have?" Xia Lily is most concerned about whether the person who came is whether she should know, and as for what kind of disease, can't she be diagnosed by looking at it? The name is the most difficult to guess.

"It's from our village, it's the ...... of the Jin family," Xia Shiming said cautiously.

Looking at Xia Shiming's appearance, Xia Lihe really guessed: "Jin Changming's child?" Her nephew probably wouldn't bring adults to see her.

"Third aunt, actually...... In fact...... Her father was wrong, but their sister and brother are innocent, and their mother is still sick without herself, how pitiful!" Xia Shiming hurriedly said good things, afraid that Xia Lily would open his mouth to refuse.

Sister and brother, I'm afraid that this sister is the key, right? She said that this kid's eagerness to stretch his neck is not simple, Xia Baihe coughed and said slowly: "Doctors save lives and help the wounded, regardless of the patient's background, you bring them to me to see, but whether their illness can be cured, I can't guarantee you before I see someone." ā€

Of course, Xia Shiming is not a person who messes around, but he is very confident in Xia Lily, the third aunt can even tell the symptoms he deliberately concealed, she is a miracle doctor!

"What about people?" Xia Baihe didn't feel that anyone was coming here.

"Probably...... Possible...... They don't know the road here...... "Xia Shiming is very embarrassed now, he obviously said yes, but he was still frightened and first hid from his aunt, who was very good to him, but the third aunt was really gentle and generous and didn't mind, but his friends didn't give him any anger.

"It's okay, we can wait for them while digging herbs, but Shi Ming, do you know what kind of illness the Jin family's children have, and their father hasn't shown them to them?" Xia Baihe asked softly.

"Of course, Uncle Jin took Xiaoying and their sister and brother into the city to find Langzhong, but Langzhong said that the children were too pampered, and they couldn't stand the pain so they had bad skin, so they were casually prescribed some medicine and sent people away, but the medicine didn't work at all, and the situation of their sister and brother got worse and worse. Xia Shiming replied honestly.

The little girl of the Jin family turned out to be called Xiaoying, and Xia Baihe asked for news that was conducive to her not being recognized.

"Third aunt, actually...... In fact...... Uncle Jin is still okay, he is very good to Xiaoying's sisters and brothers, he saves food and drink to let them eat and drink, and takes them to see Langzhong, he will never sell Xiaoying, when his aunt is gone, he has been regretting and being sad. Xia Shiming whispered, grandpa was angry when he mentioned the Jin family, he didn't dare to tell grandpa, but he hoped that the third aunt could help talk.

"People are here, but it doesn't seem to be Xiaoying as you say. Xia Lily pointed to the other side of the mountain.

From the opposite direction of Xiahou's farming, the two children are both boys, one of them Xia Lihe still knows, it is Xiao Jiagui's elder brother named Xiao Shouyin, and the other looks only five or six years old, if you guess correctly, it may be the younger brother of the Jin family's siblings.
