Chapter 37: Pheasant

Most of Old Man Song's medicinal herbs were collected by himself on the mountain, and a small part was bought from the commune hospital.

When members come to him for medical treatment, they can choose to give money or choose to deduct labor points, but the fees are not expensive.

A few cents cheaper can be, and the expensive one is no more than five cents.

Because he can only see some minor faults, or it is not so expensive.

Old man Song saw Xu Qingmu coming to him with his two daughters, and thought it was because of Xu Shuxin's head injury.

As a result, he watched Xu Shuxin Balabala say a string of medicinal materials, and even the dosage.

He pondered this recipe carefully, no, this is not for treating wounds at all, but for treating colds, and the combination and dosage of this medicinal herb are much better than his own medical skills.

He looked at Xu Shuxin, the little doll, and then at Xu Aoki, and asked him, "Aoki boy, who are you trying to get medicine for?" Could it be that you have a cold? ”

"Uncle Song, it's not me, I'm just grabbing medicine for others."

"For whom?"

Xu Qingmu shook his head, "I can't tell you, don't ask, you just say if you can catch it, right?" ”

Old Man Song stared at Xu Qingmu for a while before turning around and walking towards his medicine cabinet, "You can catch it." ”

On the side against the wall, there is a half-height medicine cabinet with small drawers on it.

I saw him open a few small drawers, holding a small scale with a scale, and he had to weigh each medicinal herb he caught, and then put it on the old newspaper on the table next to him.

He acted neatly, quickly grasped the medicinal materials, packed them one by one, and finally tied them together and handed them to Xu Qingmu, "A total of five cents, give money or labor to compensate?" ”

"Give money."

Xu Qingmu took out five cents and handed it to Old Man Song.

Old man Song took it and registered it on the notebook on the desktop, "Okay, you can go." ”

After leaving Old Man Song's house, Xu Shuxin immediately said to her father: "Dad, I will definitely work hard in the future, and I will go up the mountain to find mushrooms to exchange money for my father." ”

Xu Qingmu and Xu Shuyan immediately understood the meaning of her words.

Little girl/sister: This is because of her own behavior, which caused the family to spend a sum of money, and she felt that she couldn't go away.

Xu Shuyan: "Xinxin, don't feel sorry for it, the money is spent, and you can earn it again." ”

She originally wanted to say that all the money she earned yesterday was due to Xinxin, but thinking that she was outside now, she didn't say it.

Xu Qingmu is the same, "You are here to help others, to do good deeds, and the money you spend is not much, our family can afford it, if you change to Dad, Dad will do the same, so Xinxin, you don't have a burden in your heart, as for work, Dad still says that, wait until you are better." ”

He said to the sixth daughter: "Yanyan, you take your sister to play, as for the medicine, my father will bring it to him later." ”

Xu Shuxin thought that it would be inconvenient for her father to go to the field with a pack of medicine, and if it was difficult for others to ask, she decided to go on another trip with the sixth sister.

"Dad, I'll go with the sixth sister, there are few people in the village now, and we won't be discovered in the past."

Xu Shuyan also persuaded him, "Yes, Dad, it's inconvenient for you to work with medicine, what if you put it elsewhere and someone moves or loses it?" ”

Xu Qingmu thought about it, and handed the medicine in his hand to the sixth girl, "Then you pay attention." ”

"Dad, don't worry." Xu Shuyan said confidently, almost patting her chest to guarantee.

The father and daughter separated at the intersection, Xu Qingmu picked up the dung again and walked to the field, and the two sisters Xu Shuxin walked in the direction of the cowshed openly.

Only the medicine in his hand was wrapped by Xu Shuxin picking a banana leaf on the side of the road.

Back in the cowshed, Xu Shuxin gave Chen Jun and left.

When she left, Xu Shuxin knew Chen Jun's name, and before that, she didn't know anything else.

However, she helped the other party not to inquire about the identity of the other party, but to get points.

It's just that when she opened the control panel and saw the same points on it, she was a little dumbfounded.

Xu Shuxin's action of picking wild vegetables stopped, "System, what's going on?" Why aren't there many points above? ”

After the last time she bought grain, oil and salt, she had never touched the points on it, so now she was a little dumbfounded when she looked at the bright words 89 on it.

Didn't she help Grandpa Chen buy medicine? Why are there no points?

"System, you've cheated my points, right?" Xu Shuxin asked.

System: "...... It has been said that this system is a serious and ethical system! You won't do anything to pit the host points, you are slandering the system! ”

Although it was still a cold voice, Xu Shuxin seemed to feel the other party's madness.

"And what about my points?"

"The effect of the drug has not yet taken effect, so the points have not been credited."

"Can it still be like this?" Xu Shuxin was a little skeptical about life.

"Of course, the system won't lie to the host."

"Okay, I'll trust you for now."

What if you don't believe it? She can't put the system how.

After thinking about it, she continued to pick wild vegetables.

It was eaten at night.

After the separation, the family naturally couldn't eat the vegetables in the self-reserved land on the old house, and the self-reserved land that had just been allocated had just been sprinkled with vegetable seeds, and the sprouts had not yet sprouted, so they naturally couldn't count on it.

Fortunately, the most important thing they need in this place is wild vegetables.

Amaranth, purslane, cauliflower, wild cong, water celery, mustard greens...... She and the sixth sister are picking white cauliflower now.

This wild vegetable is now in its flowering period and blooms with small white flowers, so it is called "white cauliflower" in this place.

When the flowers are gone, they will bear black fruits, which are also edible, and are one of the wild fruits that country children like.

After the water is boiled, put the washed cauliflower in it, and it will be cooked quickly.

At first, it tasted a little bitter in the mouth, but after chewing, it had a sweet taste, and Xu Shuxin liked to eat it very much.

So the movements in her hands are fast, it's just ......

In the grass ahead, there was a sudden sound of rustling.

Xu Shuyan also noticed it.

She stopped picking vegetables, quietly approached her sister, and whispered, "Xinxin, let's go back." ”

In the countryside, there is a lot of grass, and there are many insects and snakes in it.

There can't be a big snake there, right?

Xu Shuyan trembled a little in her heart, she was most afraid of such things as snakes!

"Shh Xu Shuxin held up a finger and told her not to speak.

Xu Shuyan quickly shut up.

Immediately, the sound of "clucking" came from the place where the movement had just occurred.

Xu Shuyan's eyes widened suddenly: It's not a big snake, it's a pheasant!

But she quickly changed her look of disappointment.

Even if there were pheasants, the two of them would not be able to catch them.

It's not just that they have short arms and legs, even if they are adults, they can't catch them here, after all, pheasants can fly, and they fly fast!

As soon as she thought so, she saw a pheasant fly out of the grass.

"It's a pity ......"
