Chapter 16 Collecting Medicine in the Mountains
Seeing that the second daughter-in-law was still unwilling, she took advantage of Mrs. Duan's departure and came to the second daughter-in-law's side.
Pulled up the second daughter-in-law and returned to the room.
"Second sister-in-law, you see how angry you look, it's really ugly."
"Song Jingshu, did you talk like that? Besides, how can I be angry, and who I dare to be angry with? The second daughter-in-law had a duplicitous face.
Of course, she couldn't escape Song Jingshu's eyes, so she sat next to the second daughter-in-law and said seriously: "Second sister-in-law, there is a reason why I went back to my parents' house, because of my sister at home." ”
"What's wrong with your sister?" The second daughter-in-law is also concerned.
So, Song Jingshu continued: "It was my sister who sent a letter, saying that the family doesn't need me to worry, it's all fine." The more I say that, the more worried I become. ”
"No wonder, it's the second sister-in-law who is cautious and shouldn't bother with you." The second daughter-in-law revealed her heart.
Being able to hear the second daughter-in-law speak like this, Song Jingshu was content.
"Second sister-in-law, don't say that, just say it." Song Jingshu was still comforting.
The two of them talked to each other and said a lot of heartfelt words, in Song Jingshu's opinion, the second daughter-in-law is the knife mouth tofu heart.
One day, Song Jingshu still got up early, took the feed and prepared to feed the chickens, ducks and geese.
From a distance, you can hear the fourth daughter-in-law shouting loudly: "The third daughter-in-law, it's me." He waved hello yet.
finally came to Song Jingshu's face, and at this time she was already out of breath.
"Fourth daughter-in-law, are you in such a hurry, are you looking for something with me?" Song Jingshu looked dazed.
And the fourth daughter-in-law nodded and said, "Yes, I came to find you." ”
"What are you looking for me to do?"
"I came to you to ask you to accompany me up the mountain to collect medicinal herbs." The fourth daughter-in-law said directly.
thought it would be a big deal, but Song Jingshu agreed directly. "That's okay, when to go?"
"You get ready, I'll go get the basket." The fourth daughter-in-law said and went to prepare.
There is still unfinished work at hand, and Song Jingshu has also sped up.
When he returned to the room, he told Duan Laosan as soon as possible. "The third child, I'm going to go out for a while, if you have something, find your mother!"
"You're out? Where are you going? "Duan Laosan must be clear.
"Go to the mountains with the fourth daughter-in-law to collect medicinal herbs."
Duan Laosan didn't seem to be at ease, so he still had to advise, but Song Jingshu had already gone out at this time.
"Shu Niang, let's leave immediately?" The fourth daughter-in-law also came over with a basket.
Song Jingshu nodded, and followed the fourth daughter-in-law up the mountain.
doesn't come to the mountain often, and Song Jingshu is not at all defenseless against the steepness of the mountain.
"Shu Niang, be careful." The fourth daughter-in-law walked in front and kept reminding Song Jingshu.
Just when the two of them were about to climb to the top of the mountain, Song Jingshu almost fell due to a slip under her feet.
If it weren't for the old dead daughter-in-law's quick reaction and grabbed Song Jingshu with one hand, I'm afraid it's hard to say what would happen.
"Shu Niang, you're okay! You must hold my hand, or you will be even more dangerous. The fourth daughter-in-law kept admonishing.
However, Song Jingshu's leg seemed to be twisted.
At this time, Song Jingshu listened carefully to the words of the fourth daughter-in-law, otherwise, she couldn't imagine what else would happen.
grabbed Song Jingshu, and the fourth daughter-in-law also tried to go down, for fear that Song Jingshu would have any accidents.
Finally, Song Jingshu stood side by side, and the fourth daughter-in-law was relieved.
But Song Jingshu made an unexpected discovery. "Fourth daughter-in-law, look, there's a big hawthorn forest over there."
"Shu Niang, don't shout loudly, otherwise it will attract the attention of others." The fourth daughter-in-law seemed to be warning.
But Song Jingshu didn't think so, broke free of the fourth daughter-in-law's hand, and cautiously walked into the hawthorn forest.
"Shu Niang." The fourth daughter-in-law shouted softly, but it was useless.
I have no choice but to follow the past. I'm afraid that Song Jingshu will provoke some moths again.
"Shu Niang, while there is no one now, you can pick it up quickly, and leave quickly after picking it." The fourth daughter-in-law has been reminding.
On the surface, she seemed to hear it, but Song Jingshu was only immersed in the fun of picking hawthorns, and what the fourth daughter-in-law said was irrelevant.
There was really no way to take Song Jingshu, so he stood aside in the future and secretly took care of Song Jingshu.
Just as Song Jingshu was about to pick a basket, she suddenly heard someone shouting loudly. "Who are you? Hurry up and put the hawthorn down, you fruit thieves. ”
When the fourth daughter-in-law heard that someone was coming, she immediately pulled Song Jingshu and wanted to leave. But it's too late.
"Well, that's not the case, we just passed by and tasted it by the way." The fourth daughter-in-law explained.
However, the growers were not convinced. "You also call it a taste by the way? Do you have to put it in a basket by the way? You are not afraid to eat too much. Bad stomach? ”
It seemed that there was no way to explain, so the fourth daughter-in-law discussed in a whisper. "Uncle, look at our two little women, are you arresting us?"
"Then how do you say to solve it?" The growers look particularly happy.
There was room for maneuver in the matter, and the fourth daughter-in-law thought about it and said, "Look, we just picked a basket of hawthorns, can we give you some compensation?" ”
"You're letting me catch you, otherwise, you'll definitely pick it up and take it." The fruit farmer seems to be dissatisfied with the fourth daughter-in-law's statement.
Song Jingshu couldn't listen to it on the side, and pulled the fourth daughter-in-law to stand behind.
"Uncle, are you trying to slander us? You don't need to say it so ugly, give you money, and you will leave obediently, otherwise, we will go to see the official. ”
The fruit farmer was actually overwhelmed by Song Jingshu's momentum just now, so he said casually. "Oh well! It's a bargain for you today. If I see it again, it's not about the money. ”
'Shu Niang, why do I think that old man was afraid of you just now? The fourth daughter-in-law whispered beside Song Jingshu.
"He's not afraid of me, he doesn't want trouble, if he really sees an official, then it's not a matter of money." Song Jingshu replied.
Maybe he didn't really pay attention to Song Jingshu's meaning, but for now, even if the matter is resolved, he can continue to collect medicinal materials.
"Shu Niang, you wait for me on the side, I'll go inside and have a look, and soon we can go home." As she spoke, the fourth daughter-in-law went over the mountain to the mountains and continued to search.
Finding a random place to sit down, Song Jingshu took the hawthorn she had just picked and ate it.
didn't wait long, and heard the fourth daughter-in-law shouting from a distance. "Shu Niang, I've picked enough, look, so many, a big basket."
seems to be showing off her gains, and Song Jingshu is of course happy.
