Chapter 209
Ye Ran dragged a handful of mints into the room, Zhou Hai and Zhou Zecheng had already left under Aunt Wu's persuasion.

"Grandma, Yue'er was bitten by a mosquito, it's so itchy!"

As soon as Yue'er entered the room, she rushed over and acted like a baby to Aunt Wu.

"Oh, why did you bite and swell up such a large piece?"

Aunt Wu rubbed Yue'er's calf distressedly: "There are many mosquitoes in the back mountain, Yue'er will apply some mint juice in the future, and then go to water the herbs."

"Mother painted Yue'er!"

Yue'er put her arms around Aunt Wu's neck, with a proud expression on her face: "Mother made some ointment for Yue'er to apply, after applying the ointment, Yue'er no longer itch."

Aunt Wu knew that after Chen Gui knelt down like this, Ye Ran's father and daughter would be completely separated from each other.

She is someone who has experienced it, and she knows that some things are useless to persuade, she has to live for a while, and figure it out.

Yeran said that she wanted to make ointment for Yue'er, she fetched a basin of water and washed the mint clean: "Mother Ran, do you want to chop it up?"

"No need, ma'am, twist the juice into a bowl and put it aside. I'll keep it for later use."

Those pokeweeds in the courtyard have already dried up.

Yeran threw the pokeweed slices into the stone mill, rolled the mill to grind the pokeweed slices into powder, put them in a pot with lard and boiled them slowly.

After the fire is turned off, the pot is cooled slowly, and then the mint juice is poured into it.

The sun was gradually descending, and it was getting dark. The wind from the lake blew into the yard, making it much cooler.

In such hot weather, the ointment is not easy to solidify.

The pokeweed fruit dried during the day had been dried and put away, and the washing board in the yard was empty, so Yeran simply put the large bowl containing the ointment on the bluestone board to dry.

Previously, Yeran occupied the stove and delayed cooking.

Seeing that it was getting dark, Mrs. Wu heated up the pumpkin pancakes at noon, and cooked another pot of mung bean porridge.

When the family was sitting at the table drinking porridge and eating cakes, Xing'er suddenly raised her head: "Mother, that person is here."

Ye Ran was confused: "Which person?"

"The one who loves perilla fish soup."

Speaking of perilla fish soup, Yeran thought of Yin Tian's neurotic behavior the last time Xiao Ziji brought his son to the door.

More than half of the fish soup cooked that day filled his belly.

When Xing'er mentioned this, Ye Ran naturally knew that he was talking about Yin Tian.

"What is he doing here? Watching the fun?"

"no!"

Xing'er shook her head awkwardly: "He asked the boy to pass a message to his mother, saying that the thousand catties of medicinal herbs should not be interfered by mother, he will collect it."

How did he know that now she wished she could burn the thousand catties of medicinal herbs, so that Li Chunhua would not get any benefit, and Li Zhaodi's family would suffer even worse?

The one thousand catties of medicinal herbs weighed seven hundred catties, which Yin Tian worked hard to transport.

There are another three hundred catties, which were dug up with great difficulty by the people of Xiushui Village and neighboring villages.

How many people can be cured by these medicinal herbs, it is really a pity that it was set on fire.

With his help, he would not have to feel awkward, and at the same time, he could exploit the wealth that Nanny Li brought out from the Xiao family.

Why not?
Yeran nodded: "Well, mother knows."

After tidying up the bowls and chopsticks, Ye Ran went to look at the ointment on the slate, and by the moonlight, he could see clearly that the ointment in the bowl had really solidified.

Just about to take the bowl and turn back to the house, against the moonlight, suddenly saw clearly a black shadow kneeling outside the fence.

She was startled: "Who is outside?"

Chen Gui's body trembled, his lips trembled, and he said with difficulty: "Raniang, I'm sorry for Yunniang, I'm sorry for you, your stepmother, hey...for Xing'eryue'er's sake, can you Can't you stop blaming your stepmother?"

 Pfft, some people say that Yin Tian is here to play soy sauce, I want to say, he is soy sauce, hahaha (Actually, it seems that he will have more roles in the near future)
