A peasant girl through the ages

Lin Changhe was speechless for a while, looking at Du Qiuchan, Du Qiuchan shook his head helplessly.

"Don't look at me. It's right to refuse. If there is one, there will be another. If we don't have that ability, we were hired for that porcelain job. If you think about it, who tied you and Shun'er to the tree in the first place, that's fortunate." Shun'er is here, otherwise, would you still die? Can you still live to this day? They are all goddamn greedy for money, and there is no trace of family affection, Xinyu, you will do this in the future."

Xinyu curled her lips: "What a big deal, it's hard for you to do this, or you can go to live with my brother later, when will my sister-in-law come back?"

"I guess I can come back after buying things."

Zhao Aiqin beckoned to her daughter: "Relax at home in the afternoon, tomorrow mom will take you into the mountains to gather herbs, and while you can still pick them up now, when are you going to go to school?"

Xinyu shook her head: "I won't go for the time being. I'll go again during the exam. Let my brother tell them later. Anyway, this is the situation now. I might not be able to learn much if I go—"

Lin Changhe also agrees with this: "Okay, if you don't go, you won't go, you should study hard at home, and get a diploma, which can be regarded as an explanation for your years of study.

As for whether you can go to university in the future, that is a matter for the future. If you want to go, if you don’t want to go, then you can learn medical skills from your mother. It’s also good to have a doctor at home. At least we have a headache. read. "

Just as we were talking, someone came outside, people from the next village came to see a doctor, Zhao Aiqin hurriedly got up and took them to the room below, this is a place specially packed for Zhao Aiqin to see a doctor temporarily.

Xinyu also asked Zhao Aiqin to carry her over to study. Since the child wants to learn, every visit to the doctor is an opportunity to learn.

Jingxu glanced at the silent Lin Changhe on the kang, and patted him on the shoulder.

"Don't think about it, it's useless to think about it, we both go to take a nap, it's okay—"

Lin Changhe responded, helped the old man down, and the two went to sleep in the next room.

Zhang Shun got up: "Second aunt, I'm going to sleep too, I haven't slept well these days, you let Xinyu rest too, I'm going back to the house."

Du Qiuchan nodded, there was no one in the room, and she felt uncomfortable sitting on her own, so she simply got up and got some hot water for the child, since the weather was already cold, so getting some herbal tea for the child would at least relieve fatigue.

As soon as Zhao Aiqin sent away a patient, the next patient came. Xinyu wanted to rest, but it was a pity that the flow of people continued this afternoon.

Waiting until there was no one left, and it was getting dark, Xinyu washed his hands before asking Du Qiuchan what was going on.

"Hey, your mother is cheap to see a doctor, and it's the kind that specializes in treating serious illnesses. Think about it, those people have been wandering around, and they have spent money on their illnesses but they haven't been cured. When you meet someone like your mother, spread the word According to rumors, there will naturally be more people coming here. They are all relatives and friends who come to treat illnesses, and your mother doesn't take much. Who do you think doesn't come here to see?
Look at these things at home, they were all brought over by those sick patients, and now they really don't have to worry about food and drink. "

Xinyu said with emotion: "It seems that I can study medicine with my mother."

Du Qiuchan touched her daughter's head: "That's great. I want to learn from your mother, but I don't have the skills. If you learn how to do it, you have the foundation. If you want to eat at night, mother will make it for you."

"Drink soup, it's cold, I want to drink some warm soup, Mom, get me some sauerkraut soup, put some dried oysters in it, it should taste good."

Du Qiuchan agreed immediately, the girl's request is really not high, and this wish must be fulfilled.

When Zhao Aiqin came over to wash her hands, she also apologized: "I'm still in a hurry, Xinyu, are you sleepy?"

Xinyu shook her head: "I'm not sleepy, the more tired I am now, the more energetic I am."

Just as we were talking, the three of Zhang Shun and the others came back carrying their prey. It was fine in the afternoon. Zhang Shun took Lin Changhe and Fifth Master up the mountain. There was a deer in the trap that Xinyu dug before, and Zhang Shun also shot a few pheasants. Extra meal.

"Xinyu, come out and peel—"

Xinyu glanced at it: "You do it, I will direct, and you have to skin it alone in the future."

Zhang Shun was also unambiguous, picked up the knife and started to do it under Xinyu's command.

Lin Changhe and Fifth Master felt cold, so they squatted in front of the stove to warm up and help boil water.

Jingxu found some peanuts from the bag in the kitchen, and he and Lin Changhe ate the roasted peanuts in the stove, one by one, even Zhao Aiqin wanted to laugh when she saw it, she was really an old child , the combined age of these two people is more than 100 years old, and they came here to eat peanuts.

"Fifth Master, are you hungry? There are snacks in the house, why don't you go find some snacks?"

Jingxu shook his head: "If I don't eat, I'm just greedy for this. What we eat is this atmosphere. It feels like going back to when I was a child. My master was also cooking at that time, so I roasted this while burning the fire. Alas, how many years has it been?" Now, I have become an old man myself, thinking about what happened at that time is just like what happened yesterday."

Lin Changhe nodded at the side: "No, I sometimes lie on the kang and think about it, why do you say that the child has grown up in a blink of an eye, and the heart-wrenching thing seems to have happened not long ago."

Du Qiuchan summed up the two of them: "So we are old, and it is normal for the children to grow up. It is also uncomfortable to be forced to pay debts every day. It is still a comfortable life now."

Thinking of the previous days, Lin Changhe's eyes turned slightly red.

When Xinyu came in, she saw Lin Changhe's eyes were red.

"What's the matter, are you excited?"

Lin Changhe grinned: "It's nothing, it's all slaughtered?"

Xinyu nodded: "Hurry up and get the meat, I will ask my mother to make medicinal wine, and they will all move, if there is something delicious, let's eat it happily."

The meat was brought in, and Du Qiuchan asked Lin Changhe and Zhang Shun to send some to those families.

As for the old home, Du Qiuchan pondered for a while in her heart.

"Can you send it to the old courtyard?"

Lin Changhe shook his head simply: "No, I miss them, those people don't miss me, let's eat by ourselves."

Lin Changhe refused, and Du Qiuchan didn't bother with it anymore. After Xinyu and Zhao Aiqin finished brewing the medicinal wine, the aroma was already coming from the kitchen.

"Oh, sister, your cooking skills are better, the smell makes people drool."

Du Qiuchan glanced at Zhao Aiqin with a smile: "How about you learn from me?"

Zhao Aiqin said with a bitter face: "I have also learned, but the taste of my cooking is still worse than yours. I don't know why. I guess your sense of taste is more sensitive than mine. Forget it, I won't force it. I can Cooking is fine, and I don't force anything else, I won't bother with you if you are here."

Jingxu nodded with a smile: "What I said is that there is a specialization in surgery, this really can't be forced, Changhe, let's have a drink at night, there is fresh meat, you have to drink a couple of sips."

Now Jingxu's diet is the same as Xinyu's and the others, and the old man doesn't force anything. It is already a blessing to be able to live until now. Compared with his master and brothers, he is considered a lot luckier.
