Chapter 23
"My sister said that this plant also has many functions. It can reduce inflammation and detoxify, clear away heat and calm convulsions, activate blood circulation and remove rheumatism. You can make soup to drink it." Zhou Shiruo explained patiently.

Dad and sister each have a bundle in their hands, which is enough for their family to drink for a long time.

She can continue digging tomorrow.

The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, then quickly pushed Peng Zhen back and shook his head hastily, "No, no, no, I can't have such a valuable thing. Little girl, take it back."

If Zhou Shi asked him to accept it, he would definitely not.

Zhou Shitang sighed, "Old man, you go straight ahead and then turn right. After walking for a while you can see Peng Xin. You can also dig it back by yourself."

"But with your current symptoms, you should go home and rest as soon as possible. You can dig again later, so don't worry."

Zhou Shitang was worried that he would dig for Peng Xun regardless of his life, so he added another sentence, "No matter how important food is, it is not as important as life. Nothing is as important as life."

"You should go home and rest at this moment. If you fall into a coma while trying to dig fennel, it will be our fault."

"We just hope you can have some food, we don't want you to risk your life for Peng Xun."

The middle-aged man was very happy to hear that he could dig by himself and decided to dig immediately, but then he heard what Zhou Shitang said next.

He was so frightened that he quickly waved his hands and said, "I won't dig. I won't dig today. I will dig again later."

If he falls into a coma, it will be the girl's fault.

The little girl told him that this was for his own good, so how could he harm the little girl?

Seeing that he had listened, Zhou Shitang nodded with a smile, "Can you still stand up and walk?"

The middle-aged man tried to stand up. It was a little difficult, but he still stood up.

He gratefully said to the three of them: "Thank you, where is your home? I'll ask my wife to send something there."

Zhou Yancheng looked at the middle-aged man and saw that he could indeed walk, so he refused to give him anything. "Brother, you are the backbone of the family. You should go back and rest quickly. If we are destined to meet again in the future, we also need to go home." ”

After he finished speaking, he took his two daughters and left.

The middle-aged man turned around and looked at their backs, with tears in his eyes and a burning heart.

He wants to go back and tell his wife that he met a great person today!

He picked up the firewood, his back a little stooped, and walked towards home.

Zhou Shiruo hugged Peng Zhen tightly and pursed his lips, "I didn't expect that life here would be so difficult, nor did I expect that people here can't even afford a mouthful of hot white rice, and are even reluctant to spend money to see a doctor."

"I just said a few words to the scholar, but he was so happy. It felt like he was going to cry the next moment."

Zhou Yancheng sighed inwardly, "This is the life of ordinary people, and we are also living such a life now."

"You can help certain people appropriately within your capabilities, but you have to learn to recognize that not everyone is so kind and honest."

"Some people will take advantage of your kindness to do things that hurt you. In the end, it is you who will be hurt. You should keep your eyes open."

Zhou Shiruo listened carefully and nodded, "I remember."

Zhou Shitang touched his stomach and said, "Let's go home quickly. I'm hungry. Third brother will go crazy if we don't go back."

The third brother's leg was injured and he couldn't move his leg. He couldn't get out of bed and couldn't find anything to eat. He was probably going to starve to death.

He might nag them at home.

Zhou Shiruo was confused, "What's wrong with Third Brother?"

Zhou Shitang was disgusted, "He, he fell into the trap made by Su Huaili and injured his leg. Now he is recuperating at home. He couldn't work originally, but now he is injured, and the family has lost a reluctant labor force." Zhou Shiruo Surprised, "Su Huaili can also make traps? Then wouldn't he be able to hunt many animals?"

"Yes." Zhou Shitang nodded, "So I made a deal with him. I taught him about medicinal materials and he gave me meat. Today I exchanged a bird with him. I went out today and the harvest was huge. "

Zhou Shiruo was happy, "You still have a way."

Zhou Shitang said: "Sister, as long as our family works hard, we can live well even in this environment."

"Dad, do you think so?" Zhou Shitang turned to look at Zhou Yancheng.

Zhou Yancheng smiled and nodded, "Yes, as long as you can figure it out, I won't have to bother to persuade you."

"No, no, no, Dad, you'd better take the trouble to tell us, otherwise I'm afraid I'll grow crooked."

"If it gets crooked, I'll break it back for you. If it doesn't come back, don't let it go."

"Dad, can you bear it?"

"Could not bear."

No matter how bad his daughter is, she is still the treasure in his palm.

Zhou Shitang and Zhou Shiruo laughed.

The Zhou family is in a relatively remote location, with few neighbors around.

Zhou Shiye lay on the bed like a dead fish, unable to move. He was terribly thirsty, but he drank all the water in the cup of water on the bedside.

He couldn't get out of bed, he was hungry and tired now.

After waiting for a long time and no one came back, he almost went crazy.

Zhou Shiye stared at the dilapidated roof. For a long time, he heard the laughter of Zhou Shitang's two sisters, and couldn't help but yelled aggrievedly, "You are finally back. I thought you were missing. You haven't come back after going so far." "

"You are still in the mood to laugh. I am dying of thirst. Please have mercy on me, a disabled person."

Zhou Shitang put down his things and trotted into the house. Ma Liu got another cup of water for Zhou Shiye and handed it to his hand, "Okay, okay, drink quickly."

Zhou Shiye reached out to take it, raised his head a little with difficulty, and drank water.

After drinking, he finally felt better.

Zhou Shiye: "Did it take you so long to fight against the wild boar? Has the wild boar come back?"

"No." Zhou Shitang spread his hands and explained what happened today in a few words.

Zhou Shiye's reaction was as big as Zhou Shiruo's, and he was so angry that he said, "I'm really angry. It's because I'm not here. If I were here, I would definitely go forward and have a good argument with them."

Zhou Shitang broke his fantasy, "It's useless to talk nonsense. You should recognize the reality. You are no longer a powerful son. No one here will care about your face."

Zhou Shiye was stunned for a moment.

Zhou Shitang stretched out two fingers and waved them in front of Zhou Shiye, "I'm going to tell you good news and bad news. Which one do you want to hear first?"

"Life is already very hard, I want to hear the good news first." Zhou Shiye did not hesitate.

Zhou Shitang: "I helped you and your second brother find a master. You can learn crafts from him and make various things with bamboo and wood. Although he said you don't need to be his master, you still learn the crafts from him. Treat him like a master."
