When Xiao Ling'er returned home, it wasn't too late. Changsheng looked at her figure, almost jumped to meet her, and pulled her all the way to the courtyard.

"Sister Ling'er, you're finally back, take a look at our results today."

In fact, Xiao Ling'er looked at Aunt Hua's big hair from afar, and there were several other boys of the same age in the yard, busy with Changsheng. The courtyard gate outside had been roughly completed by Brother Zhou yesterday, but today it has been repaired more neatly and firmly. Now when I walked into the courtyard again, the medicine field inside had also been turned over again, and it was no longer as messy and messy as before.

Even the old trees on the courtyard wall that hadn't moved much because they were busy before were cleaned up by them.

Sometimes don't underestimate the child's mobility, so if you unite and do it, the yard will be completely new in just one day.

In this matter, Aunt Hua is still keeping her promise, in fact, the destruction of the medicine field has happened, and it is very good to be able to save the current situation.

What's more, after this time, she thought that Aunt Hua had learned a lesson, and she would no longer dare to believe Liang Qiulan's words easily. It also allowed her to leave a good impression in the hearts of the people in the village, and things in the future will be much easier to do.

Xiao Ling'er smiled and touched Changsheng's head, "It's hard work, it's been a busy day." ”

"It's not hard, how can my sister work hard." Changsheng's mouth came to her, which had always been sweet, and he pulled her aside and poured a glass of water.

Several children on the side also hugged over, and the big hair collar was in front, seeing that Xiao Ling'er was still a little shy, he lowered his head and let Changsheng give him a little courage before he dared to speak, "Sister Ling'er, A-Niang came today and asked me to say sorry to you, the medicine field has been repaired." Sister Ling'er will see if there is anything else to do, just tell me, I will definitely do it." ”

"Sister Ling'er." The other children who helped were much more generous, "I was also called by my father to help, saying that I was grateful for the impatiens you sent." A-Niang said that she had seen it on the mountain on weekdays, but Sister Ling'er didn't think it would have such an effect if she didn't say it. ”

"Yes, yes, I heard that Brother Changsheng was bitten by a snake before, but it scared me, but now I don't have to worry so much."

Xiao Ling'er looked at these boys who were not much younger than her, with a smile on her face that matched their age, and a simple face.

Sometimes it's really enviable, although the family background is not as good as the Mei family, but it's still much better than the original, and she doesn't have to endure so many hardships at the age of thirteen that she shouldn't bear at her age.

She only thought about it for a moment, but quickly hid her thoughts, and grinned in response, "You guys must be tired after a hard work." ”

"No, no, no." One of them laughed out loud, "We're all willing to come, and the mung bean soup made by Granny Su is so sweet, I drank several large bowls." ”

As she spoke, Granny Su also came out of the house listening to the voice, and nodded with a smile, "I saw that they were working hard, so I boiled some mung bean soup." You guys, if you like it, why don't you stay for dinner, and your mother-in-law will make you something to eat. ”

"It's not good, it's too troublesome for Granny Su, there are so many of us."

"How can it be, I'm afraid that I'm not doing as well as your father, and I'm afraid you won't be able to eat. Granny Su is also a hospitable person, before she only had Changsheng by her side as a companion, but now with Xiao Ling'er, there are so many children in the family, and her face is a lot happier.

"yes." Xiao Ling'er also nodded, "Let's stay, you are also tired for a day, eat something to fill your stomach, my mother-in-law's craftsmanship is not for me to blow." ”

Changsheng was naturally happy, urging them left and right, the children couldn't be persuaded by it, and after a while, they all agreed, hugging each other to help Granny Su prepare dinner.

Only he stayed, took the medicine basket in Xiao Ling'er's hand, and waited for her to rest for a while before asking, "Sister Ling'er, the matter in the courtyard is almost handled, where are you?" You said you were going to go to the county seat by yourself, but you also went for a long time, what happened? ”

"It's a bit of a strange thing." As soon as Changsheng asked, Xiao Ling'er's mind almost turned to Mei Cheng'an, but this matter was not important, and she didn't plan to tell Changsheng's mother-in-law.

What needs to be solved in front of us is the matter on the medicine field.

Xiao Ling'er nodded, "I have already handed over the remaining medicines that have been concocted before to Sister Shishi in exchange for some money." It's not much, but it's enough for us lately. ”

"What about the medicine field? This time the medicine field is ruined, will we continue to grow medicine? ”

"Plant, of course!" She had long made up her mind to start from the medicine field, and she couldn't just rely on going up the mountain every day to collect medicine, so naturally she couldn't give up with a little twist and turn. "It's just that now that summer is approaching autumn, the planting of medicinal herb seedlings is far less convenient and suitable than in spring. So I could only buy a little low-cost and easy-to-survive medicine seedlings, and plant them in the yard for the time being, and then we had to continue to go up the mountain. ”

"What's wrong with that?" Changsheng patted his chest, "What Sister Ling'er says, what I do, Sister Ling'er doesn't have to worry, I will stay in the mountains for a while later, and I will collect medicine well, and I won't starve you and my mother-in-law." ”

"Relying on the two of us alone, I'm afraid it's going to be a little worse."

Xiao Ling'er didn't reply to his words, just sighed slightly.

When she was in Baicaotang before, Xiao Ling'er had already roughly looked at the price of medicines in Baicaotang, the price of atractylodes was not low, although the seedlings were much cheaper, but if they were transported from the north, they would be more expensive. Now that the medicine field has no harvest, and they don't have much savings in their hands, just relying on her and Changsheng to go up the mountain to herbs, I'm afraid they won't be able to save any money to pay for seedlings.

Before finalizing the business with Baicaotang, she had to save the deposit as soon as possible.

This is also why, when she was at Aunt Hua's house yesterday, she would first foreshadow such a sentence.

Xiao Ling'er thought about it, didn't say anything, and first dealt with the seedlings that Changsheng took back from the county seat today.

It didn't take long for my mother-in-law to make dinner.

Of course, it is not a good meal or a good dish that can be handled, but my mother-in-law also put some effort into it, boiled a pot of mung bean porridge, fried a few side dishes, and branded flower cakes with flowers picked early. Although there is no meat, it is already much better than what they usually eat, and those little guys eat fresh, and they are all very happy.

"Hmm, Granny Su is so amazing, it's the first time I've eaten this kind of flower-baked cake, it's sweet and fragrant."

"Haha, if you like it, if you have the opportunity to come to the house often, my mother-in-law will cook other delicious food for you."

"Really? I also wanted to come to play with my brother Changsheng before, but Grandma didn't like me to come to my brother's house, so this time I somehow took the initiative to call us over. ”

The child doesn't have so many thoughts, there is no door on his mouth at all, and he says everything he thinks in his heart. Of course, Xiao Ling'er can understand, not to mention herself, Changsheng and Granny Su were not originally from Anding Village, but they were just here to help the Mei family look after the house.

Even if it is much better to stay for so long, but now that there is another her, these villagers will always be a little wary of outsiders, if it weren't for the incident of the medicine field, they would not be willing to take the initiative to have too much contact with her in the next few months.

In the end, it can be regarded as a blessing in disguise.

Xiao Ling'er laughed, "It's no wonder that you aunties and aunts, after all, they are very busy on weekdays, and I'm afraid that I can't take care of you, so I should always ask a few more words." ”

"Yes, on weekdays, we either follow Daddy to the field, or stay at home with Auntie, and don't let me go out for too long, it's too boring. It's like an immortal brother, he always goes to the back mountain with Sister Ling'er, it must be very fun. ”

"Brother Changsheng isn't here to play." Xiao Ling'er looked at their soup bowls and helped to fill some porridge, "We went to the mountains to collect medicines, and the herbs we picked back can be sold to the county town." ”

Xiao Ling'er told them about the herbs and the back mountain, if it was a normal day, these would naturally not have to be bothered, but this time, Xiao Ling'er had an idea in her heart.

"Actually, if your mother is free, she can also take you with us, there are many herbs on the mountain, you don't have to go into the forest, and now the wheat and the like on the hillside can be harvested. You can go out of the house to see, and hand over the medicine you picked to me to sell to the county seat, and you can also earn some pocket money for a pound and two or three pennies according to various things. ”

"Wow, can we also go with Sister Ling'er, Brother Changsheng?"

"Of course, if you want to go, go back and talk to your father and aunt and let them know too."

The children are curious about everything, and there is light in their eyes, so they naturally want to go, and Xiao Ling'er just wants them to bring the news back to their homes.

When they were about to go up the mountain again the next day, there were already three families with children, one of whom was Aunt Hua.

Two days have passed since the incident, and Aunt Hua saw that Xiao Ling'er was still a little restrained, "Little lady, Da Mao is clamoring and saying that he wants to go to the mountains with Changsheng to learn herbs, I am free today, so I brought him with me, I don't know if it will trouble you." ”

"yes, I also listened to my children." Another Aunt Cui also continued, "Little lady, I heard that this herb can really be sold for money?" A pound can be sold for two or three pennies, but it's not nonsense? ”

"Certainly not nonsense! Aunt Cui, the little lady's family is collecting medicine for a living during this time, and Xiao Changsheng has been back to the county several times, we all know this, how can the little lady talk nonsense? Aunt Cui was only a little worried, but she didn't expect Xiao Ling'er to speak yet, but Aunt Hua on the side took it over for her first and defended her.

It seems that I have to say that what happened last time was very effective.
