Space farmer girl: I hoarded food and raised cubs in ancient times

Chapter 28 28 Go to the city to see the legs
"Mom, I have something good for you to see." Shen Shuangshuang smiled and said to Shen mysteriously.

Shen was confused.

"I'll help you into the house first." Before Shen could answer, Shen Shuangshuang reached out to help Shen.

Mrs. Shen glanced at the courtyard gate and agreed.

"it is good."

Go back inside the house.

Shen Shuangshuang placed Mr. Shen on a temporary bed made of straw and torn cotton wool.

Then he looked at Shen with a smile.

"Mom, let me see if the medical expenses for your leg are settled." As she said that, Shen Shuangshuang took out a cloth bag from her arms.

Then in front of Mrs. Shen, he opened the cloth bag and revealed a fat ginseng inside.

Shen's eyes were filled with surprise.

"Where did you get it?!" He quickly picked it up and checked it.

"I found it while cutting firewood." Shen Shuangshuang said proudly.

Of course she didn't find it while chopping firewood, but she pulled it out of space.

It has been several days since she planted the ginseng seeds.

One day in the red soil is equivalent to one year outside.

Moreover, there are sufficient nutrients in the red earth, and this ginseng is no smaller than the previous one that was hundreds of years old.

"It looks like it's less than ten years old, but it's grown so big." Mrs. Shen exclaimed while inspecting the ginseng.

Shen Shuangshuang was puzzled and curious about how Shen judged the age of ginseng.

"How did Mom tell that it was less than ten years old?" Shen Shuangshuang asked directly if she didn't understand.

After all, her ginseng was really big, and she thought it might be sold as a century-old ginseng or longer.

Mrs. Shen turned his head and glanced at his daughter-in-law.

Pointing to the reed bowl on the ginseng, he educated his daughter-in-law on science.

It turns out that ginseng has reed bowls, reed heads and pearl spots.

Ginseng grows for one year and can form a reed bowl, and the remaining reed can be added for two to three years.

For those with round reeds, one finger of round reeds is worth eight to ten years.

As for pearl points, they grow on the beards and hairs of ginseng. Pearl points will only form after more than 15 years, and the older the ginseng is, the more obvious the pearl points will be.

In addition to reed bowls, reed heads and pearl points, the age of ginseng can also be roughly judged by observing the skin color and texture.

Older ginseng generally has older skin and deeper lines, which appear as horizontal lines.

Shen Shuangshuang was amazed when she heard this, and looked at her mother-in-law with admiration.

Her mother-in-law's background is definitely not simple.

Noticing Shen Shuangshuang's expression, Shen suddenly realized something.

"Ahem." He coughed lightly and gave up the idea of ​​continuing to popularize science.

"Although this ginseng is less than ten years old, it is more than twice as strong as ginseng of the same age. It should be sold for more than 50 taels." Mrs. Shen put the ginseng back into the cloth bag and said.

Shen Shuang's eyes lit up.

"Then I will go sell it tomorrow and take my mother to town to have her legs treated." He said.

Shen's expression was startled, but she didn't refuse immediately this time.

If she really lets her legs become disabled, the family will really have to rely on her daughter-in-law from now on.

These days, my daughter-in-law wakes up early every day and works from morning to night. She sees it in her eyes and feels pain in her heart.

Now that her daughter-in-law has given her most of the medicine, does she really want to give up?
"Are you okay, mother?" Shen Shuangshuang tugged on Mr. Shen's sleeves coquettishly.

Shen's heart warmed.

"Yeah." He finally agreed.

That’s it, just give it a try.

She personally guided the doctor to do it, and with good medicine, there should be a [-]% chance that the broken bone could be restored to its original position.

If her legs really grow well, the daughter-in-law will have a lot of leisure in the future, Ling'er can also go to elementary school, and even have a future.

Shen Shuangshuang was overjoyed.

"Mom, you agreed?! That's great!" he said loudly.He stood up, almost jumping.

When Shen saw Shen Shuangshuang's appearance, she became even more convinced of her decision.

In the evening, Shen Shuangshuang was in a good mood and cooked three dishes and one soup.The family of three had a great time eating.

Mrs. Shen asked Shen Shuangshuang to take out the clothes and shoes she had made in the past few days.

A family of three, just enough for each person.

"Tomorrow our whole family will go to town to show my mother's legs. We will also stroll on the street and buy some things." Shen Shuangshuang announced happily.

Shangyang Town is a big town that is lively all year round.

The market day mentioned before refers to the West Market, but in fact there are multiple markets in Shangyang Town.Moreover, there are many shops on the streets.

Therefore, even if you miss the market day, you won’t have to worry about not being able to buy something when you go to town.

"Can Ling'er also go to town?" Li Ling immediately looked at Shen Shuangshuang and Shen.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law smiled and nodded.

"Ah."

"Great! Ling'er can go to town!" The little doll jumped up with joy.

"Okay, let me give you a bath after a while. After you take a bath, let's go to bed early tonight so that we can set off early tomorrow morning." Shen Shuangshuang stroked his son's head and smiled brightly.

Li Ling agreed.

Accompanying Ms. Shen in the room, Shen Shuangshuang packed up the dishes and went to wash them.

At night, the three members of the family put on new clothes after taking a bath.

The new clothes are very comfortable and make everyone's dreams sweeter.

In the early morning, Shen Shuangshuang got up early and wanted to go to the kitchen to make something to eat, but was stopped by Mrs. Shen.

"Don't make breakfast today."

"Tidy up and wake up Ling'er. Let's leave early and go to town to eat wontons."

Shen Shuangshuang's eyes lit up.

"Okay!" He agreed quickly.

Wontons are better than the food cooked at home. Of course she wants to eat wontons.

As for spending money, she actually still has a lot of money on hand.

So, Shen Shuangshuang quickly went to work.

After washing and drying the clothes, he came back and asked Li Ling to get up.

The family of three tidied up and went out.

Shen Shuangshuang pushed his mother-in-law and Little Carrot Head towards Shangyang Town.

Because it was still early and today was not a market day, I only met two people on the road.

Knowing that Shen Shuangshuang pushed her mother-in-law to see her legs, the villagers praised her again.

After leaving the village, the three people quickly went to the official road.

The flat official road was easier to walk on, and Shen Shuangshuang felt much more relaxed.

"Mom, are you tired?" After walking for a while, the little carrot head suddenly asked with concern.

One sentence made Shen Shuangshuang feel energetic all over his body.

Seeing Shen looking at her with a distressed expression, Shen Shuangshuang suddenly had some ideas.

"Haha, if I'm just talking about you two, it's okay!" he said.

The little carrot head felt more relieved.

Shen's expression was still distressed, and she looked at Shen Shuangshuang's sweaty forehead.

"Mom, it will get cold soon. I have an idea. Mom, what do you think?" Shen Shuangshuang said.

"Say." Shen said.

"Hehe." Shen Shuangshuang smiled.

"I've thought about it, you can do embroidery work, but I don't have that talent at all. In winter, there is no way to collect herbs on the mountains. Therefore, I want to make some tofu and sell it in the city." He said.

"Tofu?" Shen was confused.

"Yeah. It's a kind of food made by soaking soybeans in water and grinding them, boiling them, adding salt to them, and solidifying them. There are few vegetables in winter, so I guess if you go to the city to sell tofu, you won't have to worry about selling it."

At this time, in other words, no one in Shangyang Town was making tofu and selling it.

It shouldn't be a big problem for her to make a little money from this business.
