What did you say? Am I a pauper again?

Chapter 259 One pair of hands, exactly ten

Li Ran didn't expect her to be so obedient, and was a little surprised.

In a place where Jingyuan could not see, Li Ran took back his hand and put it behind his back. He couldn't help but rub it a few times. The delicate, soft and slightly cold touch still lingered on his hand for a long time.

Jing Yuanzhi stood up and thanked Li Ran sincerely: "Thank you, Li Ran."

Li Ran looked at her, a little embarrassed, but still said: "You already know my name, but I don't know yours yet. What's your name?"

"Huang Yin. Thank you for helping me apply medicine and helping my mother hoe the ground." Jing Yuanzhi said sincerely.

"It's okay. It's something I can do, so I don't need any thanks." Li Ran said with a smile.

Jing Yuanzhi picked up his hoe and went home.

She can't hoe the ground, so let the rest of the family do it, and she might as well do something she can do now.

Li Ran stood in the wasteland, watching the slender and frail figure go away until it disappeared.

He saw her with her hair down, so she must be responsible.

When Jing Yuanzhi returned home, Huang Chunyang and Huang Chunlei's clothes had been washed and dried on the pole in the yard.

They were getting ready to go out with their hoes, and were a little surprised when they saw Jing Yuanzhi coming back with the hoes.

"Sister, have you gone to hoe the ground?" Huang Chunyang asked.

Jing Yuanzhi nodded: "But I'm back again."

"Why?" Huang Chunyang asked doubtfully.

Jing Yuanzhi silently stretched out his hands.

"Ah, sister, why are your hands like this?" Huang Chunyang looked at her hands stained with green juice with distress.

"Sister, what did you do to your hand? Does it hurt?" Huang Chunlei also asked with a distressed look on his face.

Jing Yuanzhi sighed: "I originally wanted to help my mother hoe the ground, but after just a few hoeings, ten blisters appeared on my hands and a few broke. Then Li Ran helped me apply medicine. Those that are not broken have been treated with medicine."

"Li Ran? Who is he?" Huang Chunyang grasped the key point very keenly, and Huang Chunlei also looked up at his sister.

"He was a man from a neighboring village who was helping my mother hoe the fields. I met him in the past," Jing Yuanzhi explained.

"Maybe you'll see him in the past too."

"Do your hands still hurt? Don't do it again. Someone in the family is doing it. Me, my brother, and my father. We can all do it. I don't need you, sister." Huang Chunyang said.

"Yes, sister, you are not in good health now, so don't do these jobs. With us, you are no longer in the Huang family before. You don't have to do this." Huang Chunlei also expressed disapproval. Looking at Jing Yuanzhi, she felt that she should not go out to work today.

Jing Yuanzhi looked at the expressions of the two of them, thought of his current physique, and nodded in compromise: "Okay, I will listen to you. From now on, I will cook for you at home, and I will never do such a job again. "

"Well, this is right." Huang Chunyang rubbed her head.

Huang Chunlei looked on with envy, but finally couldn't help but take action.

Jing Yuanzhi stared at him, the child dared to rub her head!
Huang Chunlei tried his best to look directly into Jing Yuanzhi's eyes. He was only a few minutes younger than her, not counting!
Jing Yuanzhi waited for them to go out and cleaned the house. Although the house had been cleaned very clean, Jing Yuanzhi always felt bad if he didn't do something.

I took a broom and swept it casually a few times.

Then she strolled to the foot of the back mountain to find some herbs to come back. She couldn't do the work herself, but she knew the herbs. She could dig them up, prepare them, and let Dad Huang take them to the drug store to sell them.

Jing Yuanzhi really saw a lot of herbs while walking. Jing Yuanzhi took a small hoe to dig up the herbs and put them into the basket on his back.

After digging for half the time, I finally remembered that no one in the family knew she knew about herbal medicine. But after digging so many herbs, it was impossible not to use them. Jing Yuanzhi thought about it for a while. When they came back later, she said that she had found a book in the ice cellar and found that it was about medicinal materials. Then she was curious and took a photo of it. I wrote a book and came to the back mountain to look for it to see if there is any medicine.

That was the solution. After thinking about the solution, Jing Yuanzhi continued to dig up the herbs.

By the time the backpack was full, it was almost noon, and it was time to go back and cook.

Jing Yuanzhi went back with the basket on his back, put the herbs in the shade, and then went to the kitchen to prepare today's lunch.

While she was cooking, she heard Mother Jiang's voice: "Yinyin, did you dig the things in the basket outside?"

Jing Yuanzhi heard this and replied loudly: "Mom, I saw it in a book. It said it was a herbal medicine that could cure diseases."

"Herbal medicine?" Jiang's mother was a little confused. No, there is no such book at home. It's also wrong, there is no book at home.

Jiang's mother came to the kitchen: "No, daughter, we don't have such a book at home."

Jing Yuanzhi smiled and took out the book and showed it to Jiang's mother: "Mom, I found it in the ice cellar. Look, there are pictures in it. Although I don't know what they are, I can look at them. Look for pictures.”

Jiang's mother took the book and looked through it. There were indeed pictures, but she couldn't understand a single word. Jiang's mother was illiterate.

"There is this book in the ice cellar. I didn't see it when your father and I were looking through it before." Mother Jiang returned the book to Jing Yuanzhi.

Jing Yuanzhi smiled and said: "It must be that you and dad didn't notice it at the time. It was a coincidence that I saw it when I went down this time."

"Well, I heard from Chunyang and Chunlei that your hand is injured. Let me fry the vegetables and go outside to play." Although Mother Jiang's words were very gentle, the movements of her hands were not gentle at all, and she took it forcefully. Wooden shovel, let Jingyuan go out.

Jing Yuanzhi had no choice but to come out.

The eldest brother and the youngest brother haven't come back yet. They should wait until dinner time before calling.

When Jing Yuanzhi had nothing to do, he went to deal with the herbs and shake off the soil, so that it would be easier to prepare them.

I am illiterate, so I have to find a chance to learn the characters, but there don't seem to be many people in the village who can read.

"Yinyin, the food is ready. Go and ask your brother and younger brother to eat. Then call Xiaoran back. My mother has been working all morning." Mother Jiang ordered.

Jing Yuanzhi put down the herbs in his hand and responded loudly: "Okay, I'll call you right away."

Jing Yuanzhi ran out to call someone.

"Brother, little brother, we're back for dinner, call Li Ran!" Jing Yuanzhi shouted not far from the door of the house as the sun was too strong outside.

"I know, let's dry it outside. Sister, please go back quickly." Huang Chunyang shouted to Jing Yuanzhi.

Jing Yuanzhi saw that they all heard it, so he went back and helped Jiang's mother carry the dishes and grab the bowls and chopsticks.

"Did you call Xiaoran?" Mother Jiang came out with the dishes.

"Shouted." Jing Yuanzhi said.

Soon, footsteps were heard outside, and Li Ran was pulled in by Huang Chunyang and Huang Chunlei.

"We're already at the door, come in quickly." Huang Chunyang said to Li Ran, who was still stubborn.

"No, there's really no need." Li Ran still wanted to struggle, but it was useless. Huang Chunlei and the two held him tightly and refused to let him go.

Jiang's mother saw her and walked over: "Xiao Ran has done so much work for auntie, how can I let you go back without letting you eat? Come on, come in quickly."

Jiang's mother also came to persuade him, but Li Ran was too embarrassed to shirk anymore and walked in a little cautiously.
