Chapter 216
Zhou Yunzhu didn't do anything about the shitty wax gourd in Chashan last time, and got more than 100 Wen for nothing.

Follow Ran Niang to have meat to eat!
After Zhou Yunzhu finished drying the last piece of clothes, she called Yeran: "Mother Ran, wait a minute, I'll put down the bucket and ask Shang Shito to go with you."

Shitou hadn't played with Xing'er for a long time, and the children got together and chattered endlessly.

At the gate of Zhou Hai's house, Zhou Yunzhu saw that Yeran was picking those shochus in a basket: "This, my mother said it was poisonous..."

"I dried it to make a medicinal powder, and sprinkled it on the fields and vegetables to prevent insects."

Yesterday, I chopped up the leaves and stems of pokeweed and sprinkled them on the vegetable field on the back slope, on the vegetables planted by Mrs. Wu and the herbs planted by Yue'er. I didn't see any bugs in the morning.

It can be seen that pokeweed has an obvious effect of killing insects and repelling insects.

Yeran bought ten acres of land on the back slope. In the spring of next year, he will plant a large amount of medicinal herbs, pick more pokeweed fruits, dry them and grind them into powder, and keep them for later use.

"These powders can also prevent insects?"

This thing grew into a large area, Zhou Hai was busy with his work, so he forgot to shovel it off with a hoe.

Unexpectedly, such an unobtrusive, unremarkable thing can also be used as a medicine powder.

Zhou Yunzhu excitedly said: "This kind of thing has grown a lot in ten miles and eight villages, and a large area has grown on the wasteland at the end of the village."

Zhou Yunzhu often digs wild vegetables with a basket on his back, and he knows exactly what grows in the village.

Ye Ran originally thought that it would be difficult to find Phytophagocytidae if the area in front of Zhou Hai's house was wiped out. Hearing what Zhou Yunzhu said, he didn't have to worry about running out of raw materials for making the ointment.

"Then you can pick some for me when you have time, and I'll buy them for ten cents a catty."

Earlier, Li Zhaodi and her aunt bought medicinal herbs for [-] Wen a catty. The herbs that grew on the ridges and slopes were dug up by people from ten miles and eight villages. In addition, autumn is approaching, and these things grow less. Ten days and a half months. It's hard to dig up a pound of dried ones.

Sure enough, follow Ran Niang to have meat to eat!
Now there is another medicinal material that can be dug up. Unlike those medicinal herbs, this pokeweed fruit is only worth fifteen cents a catty when it is dried.

Hearing what Ranniang said, the price is ten cents a catty for the newly picked ones.

Zhou Yunzhu readily agreed: "I'll go tomorrow when I'm free, and I'll help you pick the piece from Uncle Zhou's house first."

Last night, I dyed a basket of pokeweed fruit and went back, and yesterday I tore up a large piece of pokeweed by the roots. There were not many pokeweeds in front of Zhou Hai's house.

The baskets had just been filled, and the overripe pokeweed fruits were gone.

Ye Ran pulled the root up, and Zhou Yunzhu wondered beside him: "Can the leaves of this pole be used as medicine?"

"It can't be used as medicine, but it can be chopped up and spread in the field ditches to make the land rich."

Yeran patiently explained: "The root of the sage root can be used as medicine. You tear up the bamboo, wash it, cut off the fine roots, cut it into pieces, and dry it in the sun. I'll take it for fifteen cents a catty."

After the fruit is picked, the roots can be sold for another trip, which is much faster than digging those plantains and Houttuynia cordata.

Zhou Yunzhu and Yeran pulled a large bundle, tied it with a rope and dragged it back.

Passing by the well in the village, Mrs. Zhang, who used to please Li Zhaodi's family and arranged bad things about Yeran behind her back, was dumbfounded.

"Zhu Niang, what are you dragging?"

Zhou Yunzhu blinked towards Yeran, and said to them: "The medicinal materials, dried and sold to Ranniang."

"Aren't there a lot of Murao?"

Those little daughters-in-law are cheeky to please Ye Ran: "Mother Ran, we picked it and dried it, will you accept it?"

Yeran sneered: "No! My family can't pile up."
