A famous doctor who loves his wife beyond measure

Chapter 16 The Domineering Hu Clan (2)
"Brother, the medicine is almost gone, let's go back." Su Qingwan wiped off her sweat with a happy smile, then took out a clean sweat towel and handed it to Su Jingshan, who took it with a silly smile.

There are always some small animals rustling in the woods, Su Qingwan doesn't care. When gathering herbs, she holds a wooden stick in her hand and beats the dense grass from time to time, not only because she is afraid of hitting the grass to startle the snakes, but also because she is afraid of encountering wild animals. Just as she was about to leave, she heard a loud call from the bushes, a very clear, three-syllable whistle like dripping water.

Su Jingshan also heard it, and couldn't help being overjoyed. He walked quickly to the bushes and pointed with a stick, "Sister, look, there are two quails with bald tails!"

Su Qingwan looked intently, and couldn't help laughing. It turned out that the bald-tailed quail in her brother's mouth were two fat and big wild quails, resting lazily in the bushes.

Su Jingshan walked over on tiptoe, and quickly grabbed the two quails. The quails were frightened, and immediately whistled harshly. He is a good hunter, and it was effortless for him to catch two quails.

"Sister, I caught them!" Su Jingshan was in high spirits, holding the two flopping quails upside down with one in each hand, "You can sell them in the county town! This guy is very easy to sell. If you sell some scraps of silver, you can give them to me." Sister, you can change some rice grains."

"No." Su Qingwan didn't think so. She squinted at a nest of small quail cubs in the bushes and said with a smile, "Brother, think about it, these two wild quails will be gone after they are sold. Feed it up."

Su Qingwan thought, anyway, the big place in the yard is empty, and there are no chickens and ducks. She can't let go of the delicious wild fowl delivered to her door. When she thinks of delicious and nutritious quail meat and quail eggs, she just wants to eat them. Want to drool.

Su Jingshan's eyes widened suddenly, and he asked in puzzlement, "Sister, why do you want to raise these wild quail?"

"Of course I eat meat, and you can also lay eggs. Brother, have you ever eaten quail meat and quail eggs? That's not comparable to ordinary chicken, duck and fish meat. It's delicious!" Su Qingwan said happily, bending down Go, carefully picked up the litter of howling little quail cubs.

"Sister, these wild quail are so ugly, can they be eaten? I have only heard of them being used for fighting in the county town, but I have never heard of them being eaten!" Su Jingshan lowered his head and glanced at the two gray quails in his hands. The fat guy looked suspicious.

"Brother, you are old-fashioned. This is ginseng from poultry. It is a good tonic and has high medicinal value!" Su Qingwan happily explained, regardless of whether Su Jingshan could understand.

"Really, sister, you know a lot." Su Jingshan raised his brows heroically, and smiled, "Anyway, you can do whatever you want, brother, I'll listen to you."

The joy in Su Qingwan's heart, in this era, no one has begun to discover the practical value of quails, so there are still many wild quails that are easy to catch. Occasionally, villagers in the mountains catch them, and they are also sold to the dandies in the county. Young masters will raise aggressive quails for the purpose of fighting and singing for fun. Quail fighting has become a way of gambling among dignitaries, but in fact, the value of quails is far more than that.

After catching the quail, Su Qingwan and Su Jingshan returned home with a rewarding experience.

After a while in the yard, Su Qingwan put down her things and went to pick up Tiantian from Mu Shaoxian's house next door, and walked into the yard next door, where she saw Tiantian was playing with water by the big water tank in the yard with a smile blooming on her small face, The new clothes on his body were drenched with water, and Mu Shaoxian was leisurely flipping through a book on the wooden recliner beside him.

"Hey, Young Master Mu, that's how you brought up my son! How can you play with water for him? Look at his wet body." Su Qingwan gave Mu Shaoxian a rude look, put her hips on her hips, and shook her hands. Pulling over Tiantian, "Tiantian, go home with mother."

"He likes to play, what can I do?" Mu Shaoxian spread his hands helplessly, put down his book, and looked at Su Qingwan with his chin propped up, with a deep smile on his lips.

"Children can't be used to not knowing, I'm really mad at you." Su Qingwan rolled her eyes at him again, and squatted down to tidy up the messy clothes, "But thank you for taking care of him for me."

"If you want, I will take care of you every day." Mu Shaoxian put down the book and said it seriously, but the corners of his thin mouth evoked an inexplicable smile.

"Ahem... Su family girl, you just came back from outside, you're covered in sweat." A middle-aged woman walked out domineeringly, squeezed out a wrinkle on her face, and turned to Mu Shaoxian expressionlessly, "Shao Xian, why don't you pour a cup of tea?"

"Oh." Mu Shao replied lazily, closed the book, turned around and walked back to the back room to make tea.

"You're welcome, ma'am. I've caused you trouble, and we'll be going back now." Su Qingwan smiled politely, pulled Tian Tian, ​​and prepared to run away with oil on the soles of her feet.

She doesn't think this Mrs. Hu is a talkative master. In her impression, Mrs. Hu has always opposed his son Mu Shaoxian and Su Qingwan being friends.

There are two sons in the shepherd's family. The eldest son, Mu Shaolin, has been in the army and is away all year round. Mu Shaoxian is a well-known scholar in ten miles and eight towns. The family's literary and military skills are admired by the villagers in the entire Suxi village. Mrs. Hu felt that her son was very good, and she had always been strict with her son, but her son, who was always obedient and filial, was particularly stubborn about interacting with Su Qingwan, which made Mrs. Hu feel quite a headache.What qualifications does a lazy woman with a child who behaves indiscreetly have to be the daughter-in-law of her shepherd's family?
"I said girl from the Su family, stop." Hu looked at Su Qingwan coldly with an embarrassing face, and said with thorns, "This day is your son, what are you trying to do by putting him in my house?"

"Ma'am, you're thinking about it, what do you think I can mean?" Su Qingwan's eyes were as sharp as knives, and her tone became tough, "It's just that I have something to do temporarily, please take care of me for a while."

"It's best to be like this." Mrs. Hu gathered her meticulous hair, and one corner of her mouth turned up contemptuously, "You don't want to be a man, my family Shaoxian still wants to be a man, you have to know how to measure it."

This woman, her son is so old, but she still keeps messing with her precious son. Doesn't this greatly affect her son's reputation?Seeing that his son is still growing up, and it's time to talk about his marriage, he can't mess with this woman anymore.

Su Qingwan laughed back angrily, "Is it proper?" Well, let her know what is proper.

"Hey... don't forget about tomorrow's outing. Don't oversleep, lazy girl."

It just so happened that Mu Shaoxian came out with a cup of hot chrysanthemum tea, Su Qingwan immediately posted it, changing from the fierceness just now, her tone was gentle and her smile was like a flower.

"Ah Xian, thank you for helping me take care of my son. This is a thank you gift!" Su Qingwan stood on tiptoe, wrapped her arms around his neck with lightning speed, and kissed Mu Shaoxian deeply with a "boo". on the right cheek.
