Lu Dachuan looked at the smiling immature little face in front of him, and only felt that he really underestimated the little girl in front of him this time. As the nine girls in their own family said, how could she be just a yellow-haired little girl who knew a little about medicine if she could be picked by the Medicine King Valley?

"Grandma, Dad, Liu Er and the little brother just rummaged through the rice bags in the house and found that the bag of rice seemed to be moldy." Before the words fell, Li Junran opened the small cloth bag in his hand.

Moldy? What's going on? Li Cuishi, who had been silent on the side, raised his head and glanced at his son Bao Zi's father, and then looked at Li Junran with doubt and incomprehension in his eyes and opened the small cloth bag. When Li Junyang saw clearly that in the small cloth bag, there were at most seven or eight taels of bamboo rice with mildew spots, and his heart suddenly blossomed.

His sister Liu'er really refuses to suffer at all.

"Liu'er, aren't these the wild rice grains that my father found in the valley of the back mountains?"

Lu Dachuan looked at it, and it was very uncomfortable in his heart. What is this, the so-called wild rice found in the back mountain is full of grains, and it looks better than the rice produced in his family's high-quality fertile fields. However, due to improper storage, these paddies became moldy and could not be used.

Thinking of losing such a good opportunity in vain, the more Lu Dachuan thought about it, the more unhappy he became. It's just that this breath can't take this opportunity to vent out, so it's stuck in halfway.

"Little brother, what should I do? If it's moldy, you can't eat it. ”

"Why can't you eat it? You can't just go back and wash it. Li Junyang cooperated.

"Alright, alright. This rice is for the old woman. Although Li Cuishi didn't understand why his little granddaughter would deliberately take out a small bag of moldy and spoiled rice, and looked at the rice as if she was not mistaken. It should still be the bamboo rice I ate last night, not rice and millet. However, in view of the understanding of his little granddaughter, and the fact that there are still members of the Lu Mansion in the house at this time, Li Cui's family did not ask much.

"What a sin, I don't know how to store good rice. Now it's all good, it's all moldy. Li Cuishi took the small cloth bag and walked towards the kitchen stove, while not forgetting to mutter.

"Lotus girl, remember to boil some water and soak this bag of rice first."

"Hey." The kitchen has been cleaned up. Yin Xiaolian, who was about to soak the soybeans, responded. "Grandma, are you all soaked?"

"All soaked, all soaked. After soaking, wash it a few times, and take it to the yard to dry when there is still a little sun. ”

"Grandma. The rice is all moldy. Can't eat it. If you eat it, you will have a bad stomach. ”

"You little girl. Don't think that after a few days of learning medicine, you can waste food. Li Cui's one hand crossed his waist and began to count Li Junran unceremoniously. Li Junran fell because of Li Cui's number. The circles under his eyes turned red all at once. Somewhat helpless, he stood there, biting his lip and listening to Li Cui's count.

All this changed so fast that Lu Dachuan was not prepared in the slightest. Li Dachuan didn't expect that Li Cuishi, who had not spoken much before, would have such a pungent side, you must know that Li Cui's impression before was that he was a kind old lady who cherished his grandchildren very much. Who would have thought that it would only take for the true face to be revealed.

Of course, for Lu Dachuan, the most unexpected thing was Li Junran, a little girl who was said to be a disciple of the Medicine King Valley. Before, the little girl didn't look like an eight-year-old girl at all in dealing with people, but now she looks at it and makes Lu Dachuan catch the weakness. That's right, as long as you coax the old woman Li Cui's back, you can't win this little girl's film?

Seeing that Li Cui's was still chattering about Li Junran, Lu Dachuan, who was proud of his identity, coughed lightly, and said to the steamed bun father with a sneering face: "What, brother, I'll go and see Dabao's child first, and then urge when this barrel will be ready." ”

"Ah, it's time to rush." Baozi's father was afraid that Li Cui's would not forgive his little daughter, so he said to Li Junran with a gloomy face, "Liu'er, are you still stunned?" I didn't see that your Uncle Lu was leaving, why don't you send it quickly? ”

"Oh. Uncle Lu, Liu Er will send you. ”

It's okay now, even if Lu Dachuan can't go, he can't do it. Fortunately, Lu Dachuan didn't plan to stay any longer, but when he was about to leave the hospital, he couldn't help but glance sideways at the busy Yin Xiaolian, and happened to see Yin Xiaolian take out a big bamboo rice to dry and pour the washed rice on the big bamboo rice. There was a wooden shelf against the wall, which was divided into several layers, the highest of which was only half a foot lower than the wall.

"Sister Lian, I'll help you."

"Alright, alright. Just your three-inch nail, don't sprinkle it on me. ”

"Shall I hold on to a stool?"

"Liu'er, you can be careful."

When Lu Dachuan walked out of the yard, Yin Xiaolian was already holding the big bamboo rice, carefully stepping on the long bench, and putting the big bamboo rice on the top of the wooden frame.

"Master, the barrel has been prepared, and it will be delivered to the eldest young master's house in a while." Lu Dachuan just walked out of the courtyard, and the chief housekeeper of the Lu Mansion immediately lowered his head and approached Lu Dachuan, "It's just this medicinal material......

"Huh?" Lu Dachuan raised his eyes and looked at his housekeeper.

"Master, the little one specially asked several doctors about the medicinal materials that Miss Li needed, and they all said, ......"

"What did you say?"

"They all say there is something wrong with this medicine. If you put it together, it will rush. So...... It's best to look at the prescription...... Dispensing ......" The chief housekeeper of the Lu Mansion truthfully told Lu Dachuan while carefully looking at his master. The volume of the speech became softer and softer, and by the last few words, it was almost inaudible.

"Alright, I got it." Lu Dachuan seemed to have expected it, and he was not as angry as the chief housekeeper of the Lu Mansion expected. Thinking of the rice drying in the corner of the yard, Lu Dachuan motioned for the big housekeeper of the Lu Mansion to get closer to him, and then lowered his voice and explained. Although the chief housekeeper of the Lu Mansion didn't understand why his master asked him to make someone steal those rice, as a subordinate, what he told his master must naturally be completed.

So, in the evening, when Li Junran took Li Junyang to the courtyard next door to "cook" Lu Dabao as promised, the moldy rice drying on the wooden frame at the other end of the courtyard had mysteriously disappeared.

", that Lu Dachuan really didn't have any good intentions!" Yin Xiaolian, who had returned to the manor, was picking the freshest green beans while muttering angrily.

"Not really. At noon, the old woman looked at the man and felt that it was not authentic. If he is a good man, how can he be a steward who does evil everywhere? Li Cui said.

"It's still a mother's eyes." Li Xu saw that the red strawberries in front of him were very attractive, so he picked the largest and reddest one, and put it directly in his mouth without washing it, and took a bite. The sweet juice spread in his mouth, with that unique fragrance, which immediately made Li Xu's appetite greater.

"Mother, this berry is so sweet. Do you taste it? ”

"The old woman won't eat it. I don't know what happened to Liu'er's girl outside. ”

"Grandma, relax. Sister Liu'er didn't say it, there is nothing wrong with self-preservation. What's more, Uncle Ming and Brother Nian are not all on the side to help Sister Liu'er. ”

"Yes, let's just stay in this garden and don't hold back Liu'er's girl." Li Cuishi nodded again and again, speeding up the action of picking those vegetables and fruits in his hand.

On the other side, Li Junran opened the medicine bags prepared in the afternoon one by one with an expressionless face, and then poured them into the large wooden barrel in order. The large wooden barrel was half filled with water and began to bubble. Bao Zi's father was constantly stuffing firewood into the hall at the bottom of the barrel according to Li Junran's request, while Li Junyang was holding a long wooden stick, stepping on a high square wooden bench, and stirring clockwise.

The whole room is filled with water vapor and has a strong medicinal fragrance. Whether it is Li Junran, Li Junyang, or even Baozi's father is wearing a thick mask.

"Okay, people can lose ...... Uh, put it in. When you're done, call me. Because of the difference between men and women, Li Junran dropped this sentence and walked out of the house, "Dad, remember Xiaohuo." ”

"Hey." (To be continued......)
