Chapter 175

Jin Wuxi falls, and the sky is full of glow. It is like a stunning beauty before her red face withers, and finally dances brightly, rendering the world into a dazzling orange and yellow, wantonly swaying, rotten like brocade.

Shrouded in the glow, Xiao Ru leaned on the bamboo chair, Lou Yi went to meet the guests, and it seemed that this guest was very important, so that Lou Yi even took out the only little monkey wine at home without hesitation to entertain the guests.

Mother-in-law woke up from a nap, at this time the spirit was right, sitting on a bamboo chair covered with soft cushions, threading needles and threads in her hands, the old lady's eyes were not very good, Xiaoru was not very happy for her to be more female red, at this time seeing that the sky was dark, she asked the kitchen to prepare soft and delicious snacks, prepare a pot of good Pu'er tea, let her mother-in-law eat something, rest more. Do less things that drain your eyes.

The children are sitting in the gazebo not far away, Fu'er, who has finished reading today, is holding Brother Fan, teaching him to learn words seriously, the small appearance is serious and cute, several animals are also lazy, without the spirit of the day, the little fox shrunk in Xiaoru's arms to rest, Duoduo and obediently lay quietly at her feet, Xiaopan also returned to the nest early to rest.

Although it is late autumn now, I don't know if the feng shui near Xiaoru's house is good, or the weather is warmer this year, the dead leaves of the trees are not too much, and the fallen leaves on the ground are only a thin layer, which is very convenient to clean, and even the leaves that are yellowish but gradually turn green, faintly looming, the whole mountain forest, still lush and charming, sitting in it, listening to the sound of the gurgling water of the clear spring, making people intoxicated.

Across the bamboo, a lush forest in the chirping of birds, if other people are here, naturally they can only hear their sounds, but not their appearance. Now, Xiaoru is sitting here, but it attracts a flock of birds to fly to her side, stepping on the hem of her clothes and skirts, beating, and when flying, they are all lively and cute, and the singing is even more melodious.

The environment at the foot of the mountain is quiet, and in this era when it is not disturbed by high-rise buildings, although the woods in the mountain behind Loujia are not large, they still attract many birds to settle down.

The birds' natural closeness to Xiaoru always makes people feel happy, and on the tree, a yellow-brown, skinny little sparrow swayed from side to side on the trunk, occasionally falling to the ground and jumping. The glow of the setting sun casts gold spots on its wings through the leaves, and the little sparrow is particularly beautiful and lovely.

Xiao Ru Wan'er smiled, picked out some soaked millet from the stone bowl on the stone table, and then raised his head and raised his hand.

The little sparrow flew down. first flew around Xiaoru's bun slightly, pecked Xiaoru's fair and soft skin affectionately with her tender yellow mouth, and then chirped twice, flew into her palm, and lowered her head to enjoy the food.

Listening to the little thing from time to time raise his head and chirp twice to express his gratitude, Xiao Ru sighed in his heart, it feels so good, such a harmonious and intimate scene, if Gongsun Zhi sees it, I am afraid that he will be surprised and sigh again, although he has seen this situation many times, and even knows that Xiao Ru can train birds such as sparrows to deliver letters. However, every time I see it, I still have to be curious for a long time, and it is incredible to open and close my mouth.

You know, Buyi Guoshi is very knowledgeable and experienced, of course, although the sparrow bird lives in places where humans gather, and is lively by nature, but its vigilance against people is very high, and its character is extremely stubborn and even arrogant. Therefore, in winter, Lou Yi and they sweep the snow and catch birds, and if they catch others, they can also raise them. If you catch a sparrow, you can only burn it and eat it, or let it go, and never think about feeding a few.

Xiaoru listened to the birdsong, closed her eyes, brushed away the distracting thoughts in her head, the breeze was blowing, the sunset was soft, and a smile appeared on her face, she was very satisfied with her current life, the previous life for her, has indeed become the previous life, I have to say, Xiaoru is really a very open-minded woman.

This may have something to do with her experience, in her previous life, she was born with animal language, and she can get along with animals very harmoniously, but when she gets along with people, there is always an inexplicable sense of estrangement, so that if she is not the kind of person who is particularly enthusiastic and persistent. It's hard to be a close friend with her, in addition to her parents and relatives, whether it's other so-called friends or relatives, when you get along, it's always indifferent, and it's extremely difficult to make friends.

"Young lady, these are the Poria cocos that I newly harvested a few days ago, look at it, what should I do with it?" Xiaoyan carried the medicine basket and walked briskly to Xiaoru's side. He first saluted the old lady and the young lady, and then asked in a low voice.

Recently, the Lou family's medicinal herb business has been very hot, and the family's inventory is insufficient, so they have also begun to buy outside, Xiaoru even plans to organize a professional purchasing team to collect medicinal herbs all year round, but there is only one pharmacy and a medical hall at present, and there is not such a large consumption, for the time being, this is just an idea.

Xiao Ru lazily leaned on Xiaoyan's arm, took a Poria cocos, weighed it, and said, "Okay, these qualities are good, at least five hundred years...... Ah, I'm afraid it's been more than 800 years. ”

Of course, wild Poria cocos is not as precious as wild ginseng, but it is also extremely rare, Xiao Ru thought for a while, and said with a smile: "Put it in the pharmacy first, be careful when handling it, don't waste it, a few days ago Donald said that he wanted to go into the mountains, let me prepare some high-quality antidote for him, this Poria cocos is just right to use, I just make a batch more, let's prepare some ...... too"

Entering the mountains and forests, those poisonous snakes and poisonous insects Xiaoru are not afraid, not only will they not bite Xiaoru, for her, it is still the most natural protection, but others are not good, most of the hunters and medicine pickers who enter the mountains all the year round have snake medicine and drugs that can be detoxified, and Poria cocos is the best material for preparing antidotes.

"Well, the rest with some Poria wine. Hasn't the husband been clamoring to drink good wine lately? Just mix it up a little more, let him drink it every day, drink enough. Xiao Ru thought for a moment and continued.

Xiaoyan smiled, who doesn't know that although their young master is good at wine, he doesn't like the smell of medicine, especially hates to drink medicinal wine, when there was a lot of monkey wine in the past, the medicinal wine brewed with monkey wine was better, but after changing to the general medicinal wine, he was afraid that he would have to be bitter again, but unfortunately, there are three mountains of young lady, old lady, and grandson Zhi old man at home, even if he doesn't like it, he can only bear it. With a promise, Xiaoyan happily carried the medicine basket to the pharmacy to prepare.

The old lady of the Lou family was also very curious about these things, leaned over to look at them twice, frowned, and said, "This thing is ugly enough, it's black, it's really unpopular." ”

Xiao Ru laughed dryly, "Mother, although the appearance is not good-looking, it is indeed a good medicine." Hearing her mother-in-law's question, Xiao Ru remembered that when she was in Yunnan before, her mother-in-law's eyes had just regained her sight, and she was not completely good, when Xiao Ru went out to work all day, and went up the mountain to collect medicine, and drilled into the ravine to hunt game, after going home, she was sore and painful, tired and tired, the old lady regained her sight, and felt sorry for her daughter-in-law, so she rushed to make the meal before the daughter-in-law came back, and there was no firewood at home, and the old lady's eyes and legs were not very convenient, and she couldn't go out to chop wood, and Xiao Ru didn't come back, The old lady searched around, and found a bunch of black things in a bamboo basket in the storeroom, which looked quite inconspicuous, and her heart was overjoyed, and she was all stuffed into the stove, so a little, it was quite good......

That night, Xiaoru ate the most precious pot of batter in her life, and she burst into tears, and the old lady also wiped her daughter-in-law's tears while sighing, her daughter-in-law looked very indifferent, but she didn't expect that she just cooked once, and she was moved like this, which made Mrs. Lou feel emotional, and she liked this daughter-in-law even more, and felt that the family's livelihood was pressed on the young girl, and she couldn't bear it. Every time Xiaoru comes home, she can eat a hot meal...... And her precious daughter-in-law has also become extremely diligent, no matter how late she comes back every day, no matter how tired she is, she has to pick up a lot of firewood and never forget it every day.

It wasn't until they had a good life and a maid cook by their side that the old lady no longer cooked every day, and Xiaoru didn't have to pick up firewood every day.

Thinking about it, Xiaoru couldn't help but laugh secretly, now thinking about it, the suffering at that time has become a very interesting experience, she doesn't remember what it was like to see the best Poria cocos she worked so hard to collect, and it was burned by her mother-in-law as firewood.

Of course, this matter is just Xiaoru's secret, and it is absolutely impossible for Mrs. Lou to remember what kind of firewood she used to cook for the first time after marrying her daughter-in-law, even if she sees the same thing now, she can't remember it.

After a while of the wind, when it was almost time for dinner, Xiao Ru just wanted to ask Lou Yi if that guy could come over for dinner, but saw Jiang Tian rarely run to the backyard, and said breathlessly: "Young lady, young master, please go to the front hall." ”

Xiaoru was stunned.

Mrs. Lou also opened her eyes and frowned, "Isn't that kid accompanying the guests?" Why do you want your young lady to come over? ”

Jiang Tian wiped the sweat stains on his forehead and touched his head honestly, only knowing that he was grinning and smirking, and he couldn't say anything.

Xiao Ru nodded, "Okay, I'll go over in a while...... Mother, it's cold, go back to your room. After thinking about it, I helped my mother-in-law back to the house first, and saw that the old lady still wanted to use the needle and thread, so I hurriedly helped light two lamps, and I didn't care about what my mother-in-law was shouting about wasting, how could that little lamp oil money be more important than the old lady's eyes. He also went back to the room to change his clothes to meet the guests, asked Laneige to help, simply combed his hair, inserted a white hosta, and walked towards the front hall.

Crossing the cobblestone path, as soon as he entered the front hall, Xiao Ru was stunned for a moment, sitting next to Lou Yi was a young man about the same age as him, dressed in linen clothes, bronze skin, and an ordinary face, he was really ordinary, if Lou Yi and Ding Feng stood together, it was naturally a very ordinary young man, but he put it out alone, and he could be called it, with Zhou Zheng facial features, a little handsome, but the man in front of him was the kind of person who was thrown into the crowd and could never be fished out again.

"Daughter-in-law, this is my child, surnamed Su, you can just call him Xiao Su."

Xiaoru was stunned, only a surname? Why don't you even introduce a name......
