Medicine Girl Jingjing

Chapter 11 Yaotian Mountain Begins to Take Shape

After everyone satiated with wine and food, they sat in the yard drinking tea and eating fruit mooncakes.

Li Yunxiao combed her hair with buns, wore a royal blue short jacket and gray trousers made by He Shi, and ate a pear in her hand while playing wildly in the yard, screaming and jumping, entertaining herself.

Qu Kuaishou was full of alcohol, leaning on the grand teacher's chair with his burly body, staring at the little boy who kept moving like a spinning top, and said with a smile: "Xiao Yazi is just a little monkey."

Qu's most proud thing is that he has a pair of grandchildren who are born in dragon and phoenix. They smiled and shook their heads: "I can't control him anymore."

Deng sincerely admired: "It's better for the little boys to be naughty. Xiaoyazi is healthier than the dozen or so little girls in the clan."

Her only grandson, Qu Duo, was born weak and fell ill almost every month. When he was a child, he never ran around the yard like Li Yunxiao did dozens of laps.

Lin stared at her daughter-in-law Deng's belly, this delicious and lazy thing, married to the Qu family for two years, her belly has been flat, I really don't want to embarrass her.

Xiao Deng is Deng's distant niece. Her family lives in a barren remote mountain village with many brothers and sisters, very poor.

Mrs. Deng took a fancy to Mrs. Deng because of her good health and wide buttocks, so her grandson Qu Duo married the 14-year-old Mrs. Deng when she was 16 years old.

Lin's health is poor, and he basically doesn't do housework.

After Xiao Deng got married, she took over most of the work of the Qu family, and Deng felt much more relaxed.Tonight's family banquet is made by Mrs. Deng.

Mrs. Deng took care of Mrs. Deng a lot, which also made Mrs. Lin feel jealous.

Xiao Deng was chatting with He Shi, felt her mother-in-law's reproachful gaze, and lowered her head guiltily.

He took Xiao Deng's expression into his eyes, patted her hand and comforted her: "Don't worry. You are a kind-hearted person, and your children will have them in the future."

Night fell quietly, and it was rare that it rained for several hours during the day, and the sky cleared up in the afternoon, and at night, we could see the full moon surrounded by stars.

Seeing Mrs. He's eyes looking towards the north, Li Jingjing seemed to be recalling, and called home with empathy. Li Yunqing seemed to have discussed with her, and instead of immediately getting up to take her away as usual, Mrs. He held her little hands left.

In previous years, the He family always left early, and everyone disagreed.Lin couldn't help but He hurried away.

Qu Kuaishou sent the family's big dog to escort He's mother and daughter home.

The small roads in the village smell of damp earth, the doors of each house are open, and the laughter of men, women and children can be heard in the yard.

Li Jingjing raised her head and asked, "Mom, do we still have mooncakes at home?"

The five-nut and fruit mooncakes made by He's are soft, sweet and not greasy, and they are even more delicious than the mooncakes bought by Lin's money.

"Yes. I kept half of it." He shi squatted down and hugged his fluffy daughter with both hands.

Li Jingjing asked with a smile, "You left it for dad, right?"

He Shi kissed his daughter on the cheek, and said: "Nothing can be hidden from my confidant, my darling!"

When the mother and daughter entered the house, one went to the main room to get incense wax, and the other went to the kitchen to get mooncakes in a very tacit understanding.

Soon a small table was set up in the yard, on which there were plates containing pears, oranges, moon cakes, and special incense candles made by Taiqingguan.

He Shi lit the incense candle, pulled Li Jingjing to kneel down, and quietly burned the stacks of money in front of him to ashes.

Li Jingjing looked up at He Shi, her straight waist, fair skin, round forehead, black hair, tears rolling down from her big eyes full of sorrow, making people feel pity.

"Mother, are you paying homage to my grandpa and grandma?"

"En." He Shi responded lightly.

In previous years, the He family would go home so early on Mid-Autumn Festival to pay respects to their loved ones, and her husband was with her. This year, her husband was not at home, and Li Jingjing was replaced.

Li Jingjing's voice was soft and waxy, and she said slowly: "Mother, don't cry, grandpa and grandma will be sad to see you crying in the sky. You should be happy and live a happy life, so they can rest assured."

He Shi nodded slowly.

Li Jingjing hugged He Shi and said: "Mother, you tell grandpa and grandma that you have daddy, elder brother, second brother and me. Our family is very happy together. Oh, you also have grandma and uncle. We The big family is very happy and very good together.”

He Shi took the handkerchief from Li Jingjing and wiped away his tears.

When she paid homage on this day before, recalling the incomparable tragedy and the deceased relatives, she would cry for half an hour in grief, and she didn't stop until Qu Shi came back. Today, she was persuaded by her daughter at the beginning.

When Qu's and Li Qubing's uncles and nephews came back, the tables in the yard had been removed, and the smell of burning paper remained in the air, and no one asked.

He Shi took Li Yunxiao who was sleeping on Li Yunqing's shoulder, washed his face, hands and feet, and took him back to his room to sleep.

Li Yunqing shared a bedroom with Li Qubing, their uncle and nephew hadn't seen each other for several months, and they had to talk until midnight.

Li Jingjing offered to sleep with Qu when she was one and a half years old.

Qu's is 42 years old, and he is still in good health. He sleeps well, and basically does not wake up at night to relieve himself.

Qu Shi and Li Bing have been married for more than [-] years. Li Bing stayed at home except when he was newly married until Qu Shi became pregnant with Li Laoshi, and then he has been traveling all the time.

Qu's has been sleeping alone for so many years, and she is very relieved to have Li Jingjing by her side.Who knows that Li Jingjing has a purpose.

Tonight, Qu Shi went to bed an hour later than usual, and fell asleep with his head on the pillow.

Li Jingjing thought in her heart: "Rejuvenation Medicine House, I want to go in!"

As soon as her eyes went dark, she entered a world of endless white mist.

The blue sky is like washing, the fairy wind is blowing slowly, the green mountains are like Daisy, and the waterfall is like practice.

Huichun Yaofu now has three green hills, Huichunping Mountain, Yaoju Mountain and Yaotian Mountain.

Huichunping Mountain is the mountain with the highest Huichunping on the top.

The second highest mountain where Li Jingjing and Yaotu live is Yaoju Mountain.

The shortest of the three green mountains is Yaotian Mountain, which is [-] feet high and covers an area of ​​nearly [-] hectares. The soil is purple, and there was not a single plant when it was first formed. There are several hectares of fields for them to roll and play.

Li Jingjing rode Yuyu to inspect the medicinal herbs in Yaotian Mountain every three days as usual.

She began to collect medicinal herbs from the time she was able to walk steadily, and found the most common medicinal herbs in the fields near Li's house and Qujia Village, such as bitter herbs, dandelions, plantains, wormwood, honeysuckle, weeping grass, lantern grass, cocklebur, Shepherd's purse, wood sorrel, dog's tail grass, morning glory, etc.
