Rebirth of a chartered wife

Chapter 71 Her grandma’s heavy love
"That's right! Mom, don't think about picking herbs too easily. Not all herbs can be cut casually and then dried in the sun."

"You see, when you took us to pick mugwort and cattail when we were children, you always said that the medicine is most effective on the Dragon Boat Festival."

"Actually, I have always had a doubt. Mugwort and cattail do not only grow in one place. They grow in sunny and shady places, and their growth conditions must be different."

"Why is the medicine most effective on this day?"

Fuman was full of sincere doubts, but Liu Xiumei really couldn't answer it.

She had learned this custom from the elders in her family since she was a child, and she had never studied the truth in detail.

What's more, herbal medicine is a treasure in the hands of people who know how to use it. In the hands of ordinary people like them... Even if they really use it, they can't be completely sure of its efficacy.

For a moment, Liu Xiumei was also a little frustrated.

Ever since she passed her job to her daughter, Liu Xiumei has always felt that her life was boring and boring.

In the past, when the eldest family was still there, the children, big and small, gave her a headache every day, and she didn't have much time to think about anything else.

But now the eldest son and his family have moved away, and the second son has gone to work, leaving the two younger ones at home.

But in such a big yard, there are still several children of this size, not just in every family.

When these children get together, they can play for a long time even if they have to look at the nest of ants or give them a stick. It really takes no effort for her to keep an eye on them.

During the whole day, in addition to cooking three meals, I did the washing and sweeping.

These days... it's really getting boring.

Although the two sisters were not sensitive people, they could still see Liu Xiumei's almost visible disappointment.

But no matter what they thought, they couldn't agree with Liu Xiumei going to collect medicine alone.

Regardless of whether she knew the medicinal materials or not, the weather and the fact that she went to the mountain alone were already things that her family could not agree with.

Along the way, the two sisters tried to change the topic several times, but failed to restore Liu Xiumei's energy. When they saw the door of their courtyard, the two sisters breathed a sigh of relief.

Forget it, let’s wait for their parents to discuss and communicate on their own!

She didn't know what the two elders had discussed, but when she saw her mother coming to her room with a large package, she reacted belatedly.

It seems that when eating meat last night, her mother specifically mentioned that her grandpa asked her to replenish her body.

Returning to the room at night, Fu Yunlai asked her sister specifically.

When I heard that most of the packages that arrived were hers, as well as clothes, shoes, and snacks made by her grandmother, I felt like my whole body was numb.

Her grandma's heavy love...why can't she be placed separately from her old man's daughter?
As a result, there were too many things going on throughout the day. Fortune Lai originally put this matter aside for the time being, but unexpectedly...

"These are from your grandma and your aunt. You can deal with them yourself!" Liu Xiumei threw the package on the sisters' bed, which was a bit annoying, and turned around to go out.

Halfway through, she thought again and said: "By the way, come on...I'm going to send that small box directly to your fourth brother. I'll write a letter and ask him to go to the mountain to see if he can get it when he has time." Save some herbs."

"When you save enough, ask your grandpa to bring them over when they come over!"

Naturally, the letter written to Fu Manhe couldn't be so understated. Their family had always been like this in educating their children. Even if they were brothers and sisters, they couldn't blindly take advantage.

Of course, if the brothers and sisters discuss it among themselves, their parents will not care too much!
Fu Yunlai naturally nodded in agreement. This was originally intended to be a replacement for some common medicines for the fourth brother who was going to the countryside, but by chance it turned into health pills.

However, what she didn't know was that Liu Xiumei, who had already discussed with her husband to learn how to recognize herbs first, saw that her daughter agreed so readily, and she secretly made up her mind to earn back her share as soon as possible.These were said to be health-preserving pills, but Liu Xiumei still wasn't sure about their effectiveness.

So after coming back, the couple took one immediately after discussing it.

But after taking it, Liu Xiumei clearly felt that it was a good thing.

The feeling that after taking it, it's like there is a small stove in the body, and the whole body is warm, but not too hot. It is really too obvious.

It was just a bit troublesome, Liu Xiumei didn't dare to make any big moves.

Not to mention what kind of work to do!

Anyway, as long as he moved, the sweat all over his body would keep pouring out.

Holding an enamel cup in her hand, she poured cold water into her drink, fearing that the sweat would drain all the water from her body.

Fu Yunlai didn't know this, thinking that her mother was dissatisfied with the fact that her grandfather gave her too many things, which were really an eyesore, and she was too lazy to say too much.

Seeing her mother leave the room, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

She turned around and sat down on the bed, then grabbed the package that Liu Xiumei had casually thrown at the end of the bed.

When she opened it, there were not only thick handmade shoes and clothes made by her grandmother, but also wooden bowls, wooden spoons, and wooden chopsticks specially made for her by her grandfather.

Apparently they also knew that she had started working, so she could have an extra set of tableware to use in the factory.

I touched and touched the wooden tableware that was so smooth that even the bottom of the bowl was polished with novelty, and I didn't look at other things until I was lucky enough.

All that is left in the package are large and small oil paper packages. Since they have been dismantled, there will be obviously excess oil paper.

Fu Yunlai heard from her sister that this was the portion her mother specially left for her.

After opening several oil paper packages, Fu Yunlai saw something familiar, and his eyes immediately lit up.

Picking up a swollen and cracked broad bean and throwing it into her mouth, the crispy texture brought her memory back to the time when she went to her grandpa's house during the holidays.

I remember that every time the production team harvested broad beans, they would dry the whole beans together.

When the sun-dried beans are cracked, drop them on the ground and the beans will come out.

Then take out the dead leaves on top, and only the broad beans as big as fingernails remain.

Because of the force when throwing broad beans, some naughty beans will always fly out of the drying area. When the broad beans are completely returned to the warehouse, Grandpa Fu will take the children to look for beans when it rains.

These soaked beans are swollen and swollen, making them particularly easy to find.

A group of them, sometimes around the drying ground, sometimes in the fields where broad beans are grown, plowing through weeds, fallen leaves and branches, and picking up the bulging beans one by one.

After cleaning it at home, just add the ingredients and fry it directly in the pot.

When fried, it will naturally crack, which is what it tastes like now.

Fuyunlai was also greedy when she came home, but let alone her, not even her mother had learned this craft.

The long-lost taste, Fu Yunlai had consumed half of it without even realizing it.
