Chapter 121: Going up the mountain to collect medicine
This herb picking is not as simple as digging wild vegetables usually, Jiang Jingxue imagined that he could carry a few small baskets back in a day, and then slowly clean up, but in fact, he only dug a little bit after walking for most of the day.
There are many plants on the mountain, but not all of them are useful.
Don't look at Old Man Li as just a barefoot doctor, his medical skills are very good, otherwise the people in these ten villages and eight shops would not often look for him.
Most of the medicinal materials in the family were found by himself, only some of the medicinal materials that did not grow on this mountain, he would go to the pharmacist to buy them, in terms of practicing medicine and saving people, Old Man Li had put too much thought into it, so he only regarded him as a barefoot doctor, and he was really a little sorry for him.
After a busy morning, they didn't dig up many useful medicinal materials, and they were hungry, so Wu beckoned them to sit down, took out the prepared dry food from the cloth bag and handed it to Jiang Jingxue.
"I've wronged you at noon, I can only eat these on the mountain, Jing Xue, if you can't stand it, you don't have to come to help, or just help us dry the medicinal herbs at home."
Jiang Jingxue smiled and said, "I'm not tired, I'm not afraid." ”
Wu looked at her with a smile, "What a good boy, I didn't expect that we are getting older, and we can still have you in front of us, it's so good, God favors." ”
As long as someone praises her, Jiang Jingxue will be embarrassed, pursed her lips and smiled slightly.
Wu said, "Such a good child should be matched with a good family, Shang Xuan is really a good one, I saw him when he was a child, this child is good anywhere, I can't find any fault, you two are good children, make up a couple, grandma wishes you a peaceful and beautiful life." ”
Speaking of Hu Shangxuan, Jiang Jingxue was still smiling, her face was slightly flushed, not to mention how good-looking, the more Wu looked at her, the more she liked it.
Old man Li said beside him, "Old woman, don't talk so much, I'm embarrassed to talk about Jingxue for a while, where can the girl's family hear this?" ”
As soon as the words fell, he asked again, "Jingxue, you and Shangxuan have already made a marriage, when will you have a happy event?" I'm busy working in the fields every day, and I'm busy getting medicinal herbs, I really don't care about this, will I get married this year? ”
Wu smiled and said, "You just said that I am not the same." ”
Jiang Jingxue felt that the two old couples were really interesting, and before they could laugh, Wu looked at her again, "But what your Grandpa Li said is also right, we didn't bother to ask, when will you and Shang Xuan get married, don't forget to invite us to go." ”
Jiang Jingxue smiled slightly, "Our family affairs will only be done next year, and my brother's family affairs will be handled first this year, how can you be missing the two elders, and you will definitely have to appreciate your face when the time comes." ”
Wu nodded, "Next year will be good, things will be done one by one, your family is indeed not easy now, and it will get better and better in the future." ”
I stayed on the mountain until the afternoon before I went back, and there were some things in the basket alone, not too much, Wu said, "Today is a lot, I can't dig much when I go into the mountain, and sometimes I come back empty-handed." ”
Jiang Jingxue said, "I'm going to catch up with the small market tomorrow, I'll go back to prepare the dishes first, and then I'll come over when I have time, I learned a lot from Grandpa Li today." ”
Wu said, "Jing Xue, the field is not busy now, Shang Xuan is estimated to be free, he loves to go into the mountains to hunt, sometimes we can meet it, if you come over to help your Grandpa Li dig medicinal herbs, call Shang Xuan together, he is also relieved, there is something at home, I can't follow you into the mountains every time." ”
Jiang Jingxue nodded, a little embarrassed, "Okay, when I meet him, I'll ask him if he's willing to follow me." ”
She took the basket and went home, and when she walked to the road, she figured out why Wu asked her to call Hu Shangxuan together.
As soon as I came, with Hu Shangxuan here, it would be safer to enter the mountain, I was afraid of encountering some wild beasts, Grandpa Li was old after all.
Second, there will be no gossip, Jiang Jingxue didn't think of this before, and it is true, at this time, men and women still can't get too close, even if she and Grandpa Li often go into the mountains alone, I'm afraid there will be some gossip, and then it will be troublesome, and there will be no Hu Shangxuan.
Jiang Jingxue thought, sure enough, she still has to learn these things, but she is not thoughtful enough, she just wants to learn to recognize medicinal materials.
Later, she pondered again, I don't know if she can take Xiuxiu with her, the child is very likable, I believe that Grandpa Li and Grandma Wu also like her.
Now there are a lot of vegetables coming out of the field, and it is not enough to catch the big set, otherwise the vegetables will have to grow old in the field, so the small set will also go.
Steward Liu's food is still selling, and when he needs it, he will send someone to the house, and he will sell it to him, of course, the price is higher than the outside.
On the sixth day of junior high school, I was going to catch up with Xiaoji, there were still a lot of dishes, and the dishes were prepared the day before, Wu picked them up and asked Jiang Jingxue to send them to Hu Shangxuan, although he was capable, he was a man's family in the end, and he was not good at growing vegetables, and the vegetables at home were not very good.
From time to time, I will give them some, Jiang Jingxue is naturally willing, these dishes of his own house have the effect of strengthening the body, Uncle Hu is not in good health, and eating more of these dishes is also good for his body.
When he arrived at the place, Hu Shangxuan had just washed his clothes and came back, Jiang Jingxue said, "In the future, you will put your clothes there, and I will come to wash them for you when I have time." ”
Hu Shangxuan smiled and said, "You haven't married yet, how can there be any reason to let you do laundry?" People should say that I bullied you, I married you to let you live a good life, and I didn't want you to be a mother. ”
Jiang Jingxue shook her head, took the wooden basin he was holding in his hand, and went straight to the yard to dry the clothes, "I still have to do these jobs more smoothly, and my own clothes must be washed. ”
She thought that Hu Shangxuan was indeed very hard, there was so much work to be done in the field, and when he came home, he had to take care of Uncle Hu's diet and daily life, laundry, cooking and cleaning, all of which he had to do by himself.
Uncle Hu can only help when his legs and feet don't hurt, and most of the time he can only sit, which is also something that can't be helped.
Although she hasn't married yet, it's nothing to help with this, doesn't Hu Shangxuan also want to help her everywhere? When two people are together, they are supposed to be considerate of each other and take care of each other.
Hu Shangxuan stood behind and watched her dry clothes, compared to him, she was much petite, small and very quick to work, she was really a powerful little girl.
