Busy fishing in the market

"If there is a scar, how can I get married?" Ye Qiu took a closer look at Chu Ying's burn scar, although it was almost scabbed, it was still very infiltrating to look at.

"It's okay, isn't it still small, the scar will fade in the future. There are a lot of bumps and bumps in farm work. Although Chu Ying didn't mind very much, looking at Ye Qiu's appearance, it seemed that this scald scar was very strict.

"You can't get meaty, you can't eat soy sauce, it won't look good if you leave a scar." The second lady used to be in the house, even if she just cut her hand, it was a big deal, but now that she is injured like this, she is unmoved, it seems that the death of the eldest lady is too big a blow to the second lady.

"Got it." Chu Ying pushed out the frowning Ye Qiu and fell asleep, "I'm going to sleep, I have to get up early tomorrow, what do you want to buy?" I'll buy it for you. Or you can go together. ”

"Let's go together, I'm good at carrying things, I can't let you buy alone, even if you can move, I can't let you go to the market alone." Ye Qiu burned some water to wash up, took out 10 strings of silver money in the baggage, and didn't know how much the best scald medicine in the pharmacy costed, so he still took another 10 strings of money and put it in the baggage.

Among the 3 taels of silver, 2 taels were given by the eldest lady, and she said that she would not let the second lady sue, afraid that the second lady would not take it, and the other one or two were the money she had saved, as long as she could make the second lady's life live well, she could explain to the eldest lady when she went back, and she could spend it all.

On the second day, Chu Ying woke up Ye Qiu after washing, the city and the countryside are different, and the countryside needs to get up earlier. "Get up quickly, you have to ride in an ox cart, and you can sleep in an ox cart."

Chu Ying gave Ye Qiu a basket to carry and carried one herself, these two baskets were lent to her by Wang Yuyuan, knowing that it would be inconvenient for her to go out and bring things back without a basket. When the time comes, when the farm work is no longer busy, he will have to let Wang Qiyuan meet his servants.

I don't have much land, so I can still cope with the grass that grows vigorously in the spring, but the Wang family has more land, and there is only one laborer in the family, so the burden is heavier.

This time when I went to the city, Chu Ying wanted to buy some soybeans, because she couldn't eat meat often, so making some tofu by herself could be regarded as absorbing protein, and she could drink soy milk and pancakes in the morning.

"It's 50 yuan, you can buy something for your own use, and meet at the city gate when the time comes." Chu Ying saw Ye Qiu who was following behind and asked her to act on her own, after all, she was only 9 years old, and she was already 13 years old, what she wanted would be a little different, maybe people were already adults and needed something special.

Ye Qiu nodded and walked away slowly, and when he couldn't see Chu Ying, he walked towards the medicine shop, "Doctor, how much is the silver for the best scald medicine?" ”

"The best one is 5 taels of silver, this jar, the inferior is 2 taels, I don't know how much it burned?" The doctor is an old man with white hair and white beard, Ye Qiu chose this one after seeing a few of them, he has come to buy medicine before, the price is fair, and the quality is good.

Ye Qiu looked at the 5 taels of silver scald medicine jar was quite big, Chu Ying might not need it that much. "It's just that there is a burn scar on the calf that is two palms long, so it shouldn't be that much."

"5 taels can be healed with a third of a jar, and this kind will not leave a scar, and 2 taels will leave a little scar. Did you burn it? ”

"No, can you take a third of a small porcelain bottle? I can't use it if I buy more, and I won't burn it so many times accidentally, and my main family is not very rich. ”

"That's okay, then one or two 6 yuan, wipe it once in the morning and once in the evening, remember to avoid it." The old man wrote down everything that he couldn't eat on paper and gave it to Ye Qiu. Ye Qiu looked at the things on it and didn't have anything at home, a little helpless, but he still thanked the doctor, gave the silver money and put the porcelain jar in the back basket to cover it with a burden, and when he went back, he secretly changed the medicine in the original porcelain jar, so that the second lady would not notice.

The main thing is that this medicine is too expensive for the current family situation, but the second lady has been pampered since she was a child, with fine skin and tender meat, and if she goes back in the future, she will be found by the eldest lady, and she will not escape being held accountable.

Chu Ying bought a few wooden basins and back baskets, and then bought a piece of fat meat and went back to boil oil, so that the oil residue could be eaten every day, and the lard could also be used to make pancakes.

At the city gate, I saw that Ye Qiu only bought two wooden basins and came back, and there were 30 Wen in his hands, it seems that although this girl is a servant of a rich and noble family, she is not a master of spending money.

"Come on, don't get tired." Although Chu Ying shirked for a while, he still couldn't resist Ye Qiu, although he knew in his heart that as a modern person, he advocated equality for everyone, how could he trouble others, but this was his own servant, and it was really refreshing to make a call, Chu Ying slowly felt that he was eroded by this kind of respectful and humble etiquette.

When she returned home, Chu Ying looked at the cattails and reeds in the pond that had taken root and grown a lot of leaves, so that the water could become living water, and there would not be no oxygen. You also have to go to the lake and stream and put down the fishing traps, so that the fish you can't eat can be put in the pond and eat slowly.

"You will take care of it at home, and I will go fishing."

"Second Miss...... Chu Ying, don't go into the water, there are monsters in the water, and they are specially designed to drag children. You haven't forgotten the last time you fell into the water and got sick for a long time. Chu Ying really wanted to give this servant a glance, although it felt bad to be treated as a child by others, but this body was a child, and she could only cooperate to make a somewhat frightened expression.

"Okay, I'm only fishing outside the water, I won't go in."

"Come back early, I'll wait for you to eat." Chu Ying looked at Ye Qiu, who had two small dimples when she smiled, and she looked like a virtuous housewife and made herself feel very warm, this family finally got a little angry, and there were people waiting for her.

"Okay, I'll come back from fishing." Chu Ying picked up the small wooden barrel and hurriedly ran out, her smirking face stiffened a little.

"It's okay if you can't catch it, don't go into the water." Ye Qiu first cut the fat meat and boiled the lard over low heat, then took out the medicine in Chu Ying's original medicine jar and replaced it with a new one, and then packed the original one, and the next time the scalding was not strict, it can be used.

Chu Ying put the fishing trap that she had hidden before, and then found some thorny plants to take off the thorns on them and tie them to the branches, so that there was a barb, Chu Ying tied the cotton thread wrapped around the wood to the barb, and then strung the dug earthworm on one, and found a place with some shade to sit and fish slowly.

Before Ye Qiu came, he was tied to that land, and every day he got up to take care of the chickens and rabbits, collect the good pine resin and lacquer, and then weed and watered well, although there were not many things, but he was always busy from morning to night.

I've been busy since I crossed here, forcing myself to work harder, and I've never sat so leisurely like now, looking at the calm lake and feeling the spring breeze. There were a few fish caught in one afternoon, and two of them had quite big bellies, and it was estimated that there were fish roe in them, so Chu Ying put these fish in the water of the wooden barrel and stayed well.

Waiting for the sunset, Chu Ying picked up the somewhat heavy wooden barrel and slowly went home, and when she got home, she could already smell the smell of burnt oil residue, "I'm back." ”

"Let's eat, eat this custard first." Chu Ying fished out 1 fish and poured everything else into the pond, hoping that the small fish in the pond would gradually increase.

"Chu Ying is really powerful, she has caught so many fish. Do you want to eat grilled or make soup tomorrow? Ye Qiu inserted a reed in the wooden barrel where the fish were placed.

"Everything." After the meal, Chu Ying obediently rubbed the scald medicine on it, and it was indeed not good to leave a scar, but the smell was a little different from the previous one, Chu Ying only wiped half of it, looked at the ointment in his hand, and then sniffed it carefully, confirming that it was different from the previous one.
