Pastoral little master

Chapter 16 Tan Deyin's Skills
Xu's worried appearance made Qiduo wake up all of a sudden.

After getting dressed, he went to boil medicine for Mrs. Zhao.

After taking the medicine jar, Mrs. Xu came back from the front yard in a hurry.

Qiduo hurriedly greeted her, and asked in a low voice, "Mother, how is grandma?"

"Ask your father, your breasts are still swollen, but you slept soundly last night and didn't make any fuss." Xu replied with a smile.

"Great, it seems that the medicine has worked." Qiduo said with a smile.

The heart that was mentioned finally fell down.

Mrs. Xu smiled and said, "Your grandfather said the same thing, Duo, make the medicine quickly, your grandma is still waiting for the medicine."

"Hey, good." Qiduo responded crisply and bang bang.

Mrs. Xu went into the house again, arranged the work for the family, and then hurriedly took Erxia to the front yard to cook.

Tan Dejin also got up, and he was responsible for drawing water from the well and cleaning the yard.

Qiduo rinsed the crock with water, poured about a bowl of space water into the crock, and lit the small stove.

Fan the fire with a fan.

The red firelight in the furnace coated Qiduo's small face with a warm luster.

Soon, the water in the crock 'gurgling' sounded, it was boiling.

Qiduo hurriedly wrapped the small ears of the crock with a rag, poured boiling water into a blue-rimmed bowl, then put the medicinal materials into the crock, and then put it into the space water to boil the medicine again.

Then she carefully carried the blue-rimmed bowl to Xu's room.

The Xu couple lived in two rooms, one bright and one dark.

The bright room is used as a small hall, where the family talks or entertains guests on weekdays, and the dark room is their bedroom.

Liulang was supposed to live in another room, but because of his poor health, his parents were worried, so they built another small bed for him in the room to take care of him.

At this time, Liu Lang was still sleeping soundly, with his mouth slightly open, snoring slightly.

Qiduo put the blue-rimmed bowl on the table beside her, and gently called Liu Lang, "Liu Lang, wake up."

Liu Lang frowned lightly, stopped snoring, smacked his mouth twice, and narrowed his eyes slightly, "Sister, what's the matter, it's dawn."

Qiduo smiled and said softly, "It's not yet dawn, I boiled some hot water, drink it before going to sleep."

"Oh." Liulang didn't understand why Qiduo called him to get up to drink water, but his docile temperament made him sit up without saying much.

Qiduo hurriedly put on a thick jacket for him, brought a bowl over, tested the temperature, and it was just right for him to eat.

Liu Lang took the bowl of 'gudong' and drank it, his eyes lit up.

"Sister San, what kind of water is this? It's so sweet." Liu Lang put down the bowl and asked Qi Duo.

She smiled and rubbed Liulang's soft hair, "Pfft, silly Liulang, the water tastes sweet, maybe you're hungry. Drink it all, and sleep a little longer, don't get cold."

Lingquan water tastes different from ordinary water.

After being boiled alone, the spring water tastes sweet and mellow, as if drinking milk, unlike ordinary boiled water, which has a bland taste.

If it is cooked, it will increase the freshness and taste, and it will not be easy to spoil. Even in the hot summer, it is like putting it in the refrigerator.

Liu Lang had never drank milk before, so he couldn't describe the taste, only that it was a bit sweet.

In fact, cold spring water tastes just as mellow and soft.

But Liulang coughed easily, and Qiduo didn't dare to let him drink it cold, so he deliberately boiled it.

Only when the family members are healthy, will people with bad intentions not be able to pick and choose.

"Well, it's really delicious." Liu Lang nodded obediently, and slowly drank all the water.

He licked his lips, looking unsatisfied.

"Then I'll cook it for you every day from now on, go to sleep." Qiduo took off the padded jacket for him, let him sleep for a while, tucked in the quilt, and hurriedly trotted to see the medicine.

There was another gurgling sound from the earthen jar. Fortunately, it came in time, otherwise, the medicine would have spilled out.

Liuju came over with a broom, squatted down, and moved her hands to the fire to warm them.

"What did you and Liu Lang talk about in the room just now?" Liu Ju asked curiously.

"I let him drink a bowl of hot water. Aunt Shen said that Liulang has cold poison in his body, and he should drink a cup of warm boiled water every morning to detoxify." Qiduo made up a white lie.

Liuju naturally believed it, and immediately said, "If Aunt Shen can also cure Liulang, that would be great."

Her eyes lit up with anticipation.

"Second Sister, don't worry, I believe Liu Lang's health will definitely recover." Qi Duo comforted in a warm voice.

Liuju sighed lightly and nodded, wishing for hope, but he didn't know how long it would take.

The two sisters finished the work in the house and went to deliver medicine to Mrs. Zhao.

Mr. Tan sat at the table smoking a pipe and drinking tea.

"The medicine is ready? Send it in quickly, your grandma is waiting." When he saw sister Qiduo, he greeted her first.

Mr. Tan placed great expectations on this medicine.

"En." Qiduo and Liuju nodded with a smile, and entered the inner room.

Mrs. Zhao had already woken up, leaning against the head of the bed, moaning, as if feeling unwell.

"Grandma drinks the medicine." Qiduo said softly.

"What are you drinking, I'm about to die." Zhao Shihan scolded.

boring!

Qiduo secretly cursed in her heart, and handed over the medicine, "Grandma, you forgot, you will live a long life."

Mrs. Zhao cursed and cursed, but still took the bowl and drank the medicine.

She managed to get a good night's sleep last night, and she knew in her heart that the medicine might really have some effect.

Anyway, I have already taken those medicines before, so I don't care about one or two more bowls.

Liuju took the medicine bowl, and Qiduo handed a piece of Bazhen cake to Mrs. Zhao, "Grandma, sweet mouth."

The few snacks that Shen Nan gave, she was going to bring back for Liu Lang to eat.

I didn't expect it to be used to coax Mrs. Zhao to drink medicine now.

Looking at the sweet Bazhen Cake, Mrs. Zhao's expression softened a little, and she took it and ate it slowly.

"Your Aunt Shen gave it to you, why don't you keep it for Liu Lang and you to eat?" Zhao asked very rarely.

His tone was also much milder.

Although Liuju didn't like Mrs. Zhao, after hearing this, he immediately smiled and said, "We know that grandma's medicine is bitter, so we specially reserved it for you to eat, grandma, isn't it sweet?"

Looking at the two pretty faces of Qiduo and Liuju, and listening to the sweet and sweet words, Mrs. Zhao nodded with a smile, "Well, Tian, ​​you two, go and help your mother, grandma will take a break. "

No matter what the purpose of Qiduo and Liuju is, it is very rare to be able to control their mouths and keep things for her to drink medicine.

If these pastries had three peaches, four dates and five apricots, they would have eagerly opened their mouths to taste the freshness.

Where do you still remember her, Mrs. Zhao?

Zhao's heart softened at this moment.

A look of surprise slid across Liuju's face.

Such a grandma is so rare!
Qiduo and Liuju agreed and left.

After leaving the main room, Liuju looked at Qiduo and smiled sweetly, and said in a low voice, "Duo, it turns out that grandma is also for coaxing."

"Pfft, of course, people's hearts are fleshy, who doesn't want to see others treat themselves well." Qi Duo smiled and bit her ear.

She was very worried that Mrs. Zhao was the one who didn't get in.

That would be troublesome.

However, Qiduo is too optimistic.

When passing by the east chamber, I saw several unfamiliar people sitting under the porch.

Tan Deyin's family lives in the East Wing. There are three big rooms, which are very spacious.

He divided a room near the south into two rooms, one for Dalang and Sanlang's bedroom.

The other one has a shrine, enshrining a statue of Yuanshi Tianzun, and a plaque of "Qing Lianju" is hung on the door.

Tan Deyin's name is Qinglian.

He seldom does farm work, and even for the busiest couples, he seldom helps, because there are always things he needs to be busy with.

After getting up every day, the first thing after cleansing the face and clothes is to burn incense and worship the gods.

The next step is to sit in the house and wait for the villagers who come to tell the fortune.

He only spends one hour a day in fortune-telling, starting at the moment of Mao and ending at the moment of Chen.

Not too late!

When Tan Deyin made this rule, many family members objected, saying that as long as someone comes, it doesn't matter what time it is.

But Tan Deyin insisted on this.

It's strange to say that those fortune tellers and horoscopes come here early every day, for fear that the time will pass.

The Tan family is full of guests every day, very lively.

The people sitting in front of the Chaoshou verandah are just waiting for fortune-tellers.

Mostly women.

Many of them are well-dressed.

Of course, Tan Deyin is not only a fortune teller, but also responsible for dancing to the gods.

If someone is counted as having bad luck, he will naturally ask him to help change his luck.

In this way, the income is naturally rich.

Qiduo pursed her lips and whispered to Liuju, "Second Uncle is really famous?"

If he is not famous, who will come to him.

Although she doesn't like Tan Deyin very much, Qiduo still can't help admiring him.

It is not an easy task to be known to everyone with a three-inch tongue.

"Hey, why else would grandma favor Second Uncle and the others, if they can make money." Liuju sighed softly, both helpless and envious.

Earning money is definitely earned, but it's really hard to say whether all the money will go into Mr. Tan's pocket.

Qiduo secretly thought, smiled, and went into the kitchen with Liuju.

The potato porridge in the iron pot has begun to steam, and Mrs. Xu sits on a stool and chops pig vegetables.

Tan Dejin is pouring the water from the well into the water tank.

"Did you drink the milk medicine?" Er Xia asked with a warm smile.

"Yeah, we drank it and praised us for being sensible." Qiduo replied with a smile.

Liuju took the pole and four bamboo baskets, and said with a sneer, "Why didn't I hear grandma say that, let's go, pick vegetables."

"Grandma said it in her heart, hehe." Qiduo teased Liuju with a smile.

"You girl, you're getting skinnier." Liuju pointed Qiduo's forehead with her slender fingers, and scolded with a smile.

Erxia curled up her mouth and laughed silently under the stove.

The smile is gentle and beautiful.

Seeing the lively, cheerful and healthy Qiduo, Mrs. Xu felt as if her heart had been ironed, she was very comfortable, and her eyes were full of smiles.

Qiduo and Liuju each picked two bamboo baskets and left the kitchen.

It so happened that two women dressed in silk and wearing gold hairpins came out of the Qinglian House together, went down the steps, and walked towards the gate of the courtyard.

The two had joyful smiles on their faces.

It seems that Tan Deyin said a lot of good things.

Qiduo and Liuju followed them with baskets, and the faint voice of conversation drifted over with the wind.

PS [Updated, the new week begins, and it’s time to hit the newcomer list again, Zihua continues to brazenly ask the sisters for collections, recommendation tickets, clicks, messages, etc. Support, love you, group touch, hee hee, please La! ! 】
