Chapter 8 Eagle Claw Millet

Wang lifted up Sister Li's trousers and immediately saw the teeth marks on her ankles, with a circle of black around them.

"Sister, you were bitten by a poisonous snake? How do you feel now? Who helped you remove the poison?" Wang asked anxiously.

"Mom, I'm fine. There's only a little pain now. Just apply the medicine a few times and it'll be fine." Sister Li comforted Mrs. Wang, and then said in her ear: "It was Miss Shen who helped me drain the poisonous blood, and she was also the one who sent me the medicine." Give me good medicine to cure snake venom."

Wang was frightened for a while. Looking at the black color around the wound, she knew it was a very venomous snake. Shen Jia must have discovered her eldest sister not long after she was bitten by the snake. If it had been later, there would probably be no big snake in the world. Sister.

Wang's eyes were full of guilt. Someone saved her daughter, but she went to destroy someone else's home. Is she still a human being?

But she doesn't have the ability to resist, what should she do?
  Mrs. Wang glanced at her aching calf. It was kicked by Li Hu just now and had turned purple. She and her three daughters had no good skin on their bodies. They were either pinched, kicked, or even whipped. .

No, we can't go on like this.

Wang clenched her fists, a trace of determination flashed in her eyes, and finally said a few words in Li Damei's ear. Li Damei nodded fiercely, and mother and daughter looked at each other and smiled.

The next day, at the beginning of Mao Shi, Shen Jia woke up from her sleep. She sat cross-legged on the bed and began to silently recite the internal skills, heart method, and oral skills, and tried to adjust her breath. Half an hour later, there was a trace of true energy circulating in her body and causing heat.

Shen Jia was overjoyed. This body was a martial arts prodigy just like hers in her previous life. After another hour, she slowly let out the turbid air in her mouth.

Opening the window, a cool breeze blew in. The moist air was mixed with the fragrance of earth and flowers, and I felt refreshed.

There was no one in the kitchen. I guess Gu had gone to bed late last night and hadn't gotten up yet.

Shen Jia looked through the things in the kitchen and found that in addition to eggs and rice, there were some sour taro sprouts.

Shen Jia thought for a while and poured out the dragon claw millet she brought back from the mountain yesterday. The wine-red corn was sprinkled in the dustpan. She took half of it and ground it into powder with a stone mill, and kept the other half to make seeds.

Dragon's claw millet has the effect of replenishing qi, replenishing the intestines and stomach, and treating deficiency of spleen and stomach qi. Grinding dragon's claw millet into powder and cooking it as porridge can benefit the Dantian, replenish vitality, and increase appetite. Known as black pearls.

In her previous life, people in her hometown basically ate millet porridge for breakfast. Most people over the age of ninety had millet porridge three times a day. It was also called a longevity supplement for centenarians.

Children and long-lived old people have the habit of using dragon claw millet as pillows.

Several relatives and friends who suffer from diabetes mellitus have eaten corn cakes made from corn flour for several years without adding rice, and their blood sugar levels have reportedly become normal.

Making millet porridge is very simple. When cooking white porridge, add a little more water. When the rice is cooked and before it blossoms, mix an appropriate amount of corn flour with cold water, then pour it into the white porridge and stir, then bring to a boil and the white porridge will transform into a gorgeous porridge. Lilac millet porridge.

Sour taro sprouts are sauerkraut made from taro sprouts. Stir-fried with a little garlic and chili, it is a perfect match with millet porridge.

It's a pity that there are no chili peppers in this era, and what's even more pity is that the big stove was smashed by that bastard Du's, and even the sour taro sprouts can't be fried.

The last person boiled two eggs. Shen Jia moved quickly and had breakfast ready in half an hour.

Mrs. Gu walked out of the room rubbing her sleepy eyes and found that Shen Jia had already prepared breakfast. Her face turned red and she said angrily: "Jia'er, why don't you sleep a little longer and wait for mother to prepare breakfast?" It's not too late for you to get up. Hey, it's all my fault, I overslept."

Shen Jia was secretly amused. Shen Zhuoyun usually got up to make breakfast at home. There were only a handful of days throughout the year when Mrs. Gu got up to make breakfast. It was strange that she got up.

The ancients believed that a gentleman should stay away from the kitchen. If a man can wash your hands and make soup for you, it proves that this man must love you very much.

But this also proves that they have a good relationship as a couple.

Shen Jia held Gu's hand and said with a smile: "No matter who makes breakfast, it's the same. We are a family, so we don't need to be so clear-cut."

With a gentle smile in her eyes, Mrs. Gu touched Shen Jia's head and said happily: "Jia'er has grown up." Shen Zhuoyun and Shen Hao could already sit up and eat by themselves. Shen Jia brought their breakfast to the room. Just came out.

Shen Yun and Shen An were already sitting at the table waiting for her.

"Sister, what kind of porridge is this?" Shen Yun looked at the lavender millet porridge in front of him and asked curiously.

"The porridge is added with dragon claw corn flour, also called millet porridge. It has the effects of removing heat, detoxifying, nourishing the spleen and stomach, relieving heat and nourishing the skin, and improving sleep quality."

Shen An picked up the wooden spoon and took a mouthful of millet porridge. "It's sweet, soft and glutinous, refreshing and delicious."

Gu took a taste gracefully and said, "The taste of millet porridge is particularly good, but the name needs to be changed. Dragon is a taboo?"

Shen Jia slapped his forehead and said, "I forgot, let's call it Eagle Claw Millet."

After Shen Jia finished breakfast, she prepared a new decoction for Shen Zhuoyun and Shen Hao.

She walked into Shen Zhuoyun's room carrying the soup and asked, "Dad, who can help build the stove at home? It's not good at all without a big stove. It's not convenient at all to boil water for dad and brother to take medicinal baths."

"Let me call you Uncle Yang. He can build a stove. He should be able to build it in half a day." Shen Zhuoyun said with a smile.

"Then I'll go find him." After Shen Jia finished speaking, he gave Shen Hao the soup to drink, and then went out to find Yang Dazhuang.

As soon as he walked to the door, he saw that Yang Dazhuang was already approaching Shen's house, and with him was his wife Kong.

Shen Jia raised a bright smile and called out: "Uncle Yang, hello Aunt Yang. I was just going to find you, but you guys came unexpectedly."

"Hey!"

"Your stove was smashed. It's definitely inconvenient for cooking and so on. I just wanted to come over early and help you build the stove." Yang Dazhuang touched the back of his head and said with a smile.

"That's how I thank Uncle Yang and Aunt Yang." Shen Jia bowed her hands and thanked them.

Yang Dazhuang jumped away quickly: "No, no, no need to thank you. Brother Shen helped me save my life. I just helped you build a stove. I can't thank you."

That year, his mother was seriously ill. In order to treat her illness, he sold more than half of the family's rice.

The rice at home can only be eaten equally by his mother. The rice in the fields is not yet mature, so he eats wild vegetables for every meal. Every day at dawn, he has to go to the mountains to cut firewood, and then sells it in the market.

The weather in Lingnan in early June was extremely hot, and he staggered and fainted on the ground.

When he woke up, he saw a young couple with extraordinary temperament standing next to him. The man was handsome and the woman was beautiful. He was stunned for a moment.

Only then did he realize that they had saved him. They not only paid for his medical expenses, but also bought him a portion of rice porridge and a portion of rice noodles.

From the conversation, I learned that they came from the north, planned to live in Lingnan, and were looking for a suitable place to settle.

He did not hesitate to invite them to settle in Beili Village.

Most of the people in Beili Village have migrated from various places in the north in recent decades, and they all only got to know each other when they arrived here. Unlike some other large villages, where everyone is of the same clan and ethnicity, it is difficult for outsiders to blend in.
