There are vegetable gardens on both sides of the backyard of this Guanyin Temple, where common local vegetables are grown. The vegetable gardens are kept clean and tidy, except for some weeds growing beside the fence and under the courtyard wall. Lin Ruyu walked around the fence before pulling them out. A handful of dandelions and return to the kitchen.

Seeing her coming back, Shen Ge pointed to the basket next to him and said, "I have packed up most of the edible and usable things in the kitchen and will send them to the east courtyard later. You can keep them properly. This temple has not been damaged by water." Yan, people will live here soon, and we can’t stop it. We can’t stop it. If we don’t take these things, they will take them too. When more people come, my third uncle and I will also move to the east courtyard when we have a son. Go. A few of us will hold on to the east courtyard and wait until the flood recedes before going down the mountain."

Lin Ruyu also had this intention, but she didn't have time to deal with it yet, "I hope the two people from the temple can come back."

"It's been raining for so long and they haven't come back yet. I'm afraid it's going to be difficult." Shen Ge said while cleaning the purslane that Lin Ruyu had picked. "Do you like to eat this?"

Lin Ruyu explained, "Purslane is also called a longevity vegetable. It can clear away heat and dampness, detoxify and relieve stranguria. Chopping it into porridge can stop malnutrition and treat abdominal pain. We soaked in floods and rained, so You should drink several bowls of purslane porridge to prevent dysentery."

Shen Ge looked up at Lin Ruyu and said half-jokingly, "Second sister knows a lot. Isn't your family in the cloth business? Do they also sell medicinal materials and open a medical clinic?"

"Well, there are several medical clinics that sell medicinal materials." Seeing Shen Ge's eyes widening and his mouth wide with an exaggerated expression, Lin Ruyu laughed out loud.

The Lin family is indeed in the medicinal materials business, but her knowledge of medicinal materials and pharmacology was not learned from the Lin family.

During her seventeen years as an orphan, the director of the orphanage where she lived came from a family of traditional Chinese medicine. Lin Ruyu had to learn to memorize traditional Chinese medicine charts and pharmacology since she was sensible. When she was older, she went to the mountains behind to take care of the medicinal materials planted on the mountains.

The director made this arrangement not to train the children to become doctors, but to make the orphanage unique. Because only if the orphanage is unique, will it attract attention and be worthy of reporting. With attention and reporting, there will be traffic. There is honor. These can be converted into money. If it were not for this money, Lin Ruyu, who has a congenital heart disease, would not have lived to be seventeen.

But these things cannot be told to others. Not to mention that they don't believe it. If the impression was not too deep and real, Lin Ruyu herself would doubt that the past seventeen years were just a dream of hers.

Seeing that his second sister stopped laughing after being so amused by him, Shen Ge scratched his head and couldn't figure out what she was worried about. Aren't her mother and brother back?

Lin Ruyu washed the dandelions, put them into a medicine jar in the kitchen and boiled them for a while. Then she brought the medicine jar to the small kitchen table and called Shen Ge who was washing vegetables, "Stop washing vegetables. Come over and use this heat to fumigate the dandelions on your arms." For wounds, wait until the medicine is no longer hot, then scrub the wound with medicine juice."

I have a name... Shen Ge muttered secretly, stepped forward and asked, "Does this work?"

"This is the only medicine. Although it is not very useful, it is somewhat helpful." While Shen Ge was sitting at the table fumigating the wound on his arm, Lin Ruyu neatly took out the purslane, chopped it, and put it into the pot. Bring to a simmer.

After Shen Ge, who was sitting at the table, confirmed that there was no one around, he told the story about An Ziyuan in a low voice, and then said, "I speculate that his real name is not An Ziyuan. Even if his real name is An Ziyuan, It’s not like ‘Let Cai An live far away’. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have sworn such a vicious oath.”

Daxia people respect gods and ghosts, and attach great importance to oaths. Unless they have a clear conscience, they will not swear poisonous oaths. What An Ziyuan said is definitely not everything, but he swore it.

Lin Ruyu looked in a daze. If even the name An Ziyuan is fake, then who is he?

Was he really targeting him because he was greedy for the Lin family's money? But with the ability of Sichun around him and his status that Fan Genyuan respects, how could he be short of money?

The heat fumigating the wound was unpleasant. Shen Ge, who was fighting the pain, did not notice the change in Lin Ruyu's expression and continued, "He is not going to Cai'an since he is far away. He will definitely not be able to stay in Cai for a few days. Maybe, he will go I walked around for a while and then left."

Lin Ruyu came back to her senses and analyzed along this line of thinking, "If it is true or not, send someone to check and we will know. Even if you go to Cai Cai, you will be flooded, but for a person like An Ziyuan, it should not be difficult to find out. An Ziyuan is very suspicious Seriously, if you force him to swear an oath today, he will definitely suspect that you should not go out of the temple in the past few days, and do not stay alone in the temple, otherwise he will be cruel to you."

"I know that he wanted to kill me for more than a day or two."

After the porridge in the pot was cooked, Shen Ge picked up the basket on his back and sent Lin Ruyu back to the east courtyard with most of the pot of porridge covered with the pot lid. Then he returned to the backyard kitchen and scooped the remaining porridge into the basin, along with the remaining porridge in the kitchen. I stuffed all the edible and usable things into my backpack and took them back to the kitchen in the west courtyard. I ate them all with my son and the three of them, then returned to the east wing and fell into bed and fell asleep.

It was almost time, and when An Jiachun went to the backyard to prepare lunch for his son, he found that there was nothing in the kitchen except a dirty pot, and his nose almost became angry.

Lin Ruyu, who returned to the east courtyard, warmed the porridge and the wooden plate in the pot, mixed some noodles, and placed them beside the pot to ferment.

After washing her hands, Lin Ruyu boiled the dandelions she had just pulled out in a medicinal jar, fumigated and scrubbed the scratches on her body. After being a patient for seventeen years, Lin Ruyu took health issues very seriously.

After putting away the dried clothes and bringing them back to the house, Lin Ruyu sat at the table and watched over her mother and brother, mending clothes.

Mrs. Fang woke up and looked at her daughter for a long time, then wiped away the tears that had flowed out from nowhere and stood up.

When Lin Ruyu heard the noise, she quickly put down her needlework and walked to the bedside, whispering, "Mother, is your head still uncomfortable?"

Fang smiled and held her daughter's little hand, "Mom is much better. She doesn't have to lie down all the time. Jiaojiao brings the needle and thread, and Mom will mend it."

"It will be mended immediately." Lin Ruyu first touched the teapot on the table and found that the water was still warm, so she poured a bowl for her mother and brought it to her mother. Then she brought the brown coarse cloth trousers she was mending to her mother. He said politely, "These are Brother Dafu's trousers. The current conditions are poor, so my daughter can only sew them for him."

Fang sat back on the bed and mended the hole in his trousers that had been hung up by a branch.

Although it was raining outside, and although the floods were raging and there was no food and clothing, Lin Ruyu looked at her mother and felt that the years were quiet and peaceful.

Fang discussed with her daughter, "Dafu is a good boy with a solid eye. He saved your life. When we return to Xuanzhou and your father comes back, we will transfer Dafu's name to our eldest family's name. From now on. , Mom raised him as her own son. What do you think of Jiaojiao?"

If he can save his mother, he can also save his father who will return from sea next year! Lin Ruyu gently leaned on her mother's lap and said, "Well, Dafu will be my brother from now on."

The two talked for a while, and little Ah Heng also woke up. It was noon, and Lin Ruyu asked little Ah Heng to send Dafu's clothes to the west room, and told him to get up and prepare for dinner.

Holding an umbrella, she helped her mother to the kitchen and asked her to sit by the stove. Lin Ruyu rolled up her sleeves and opened the bamboo curtain on the basin. She was already excited at the meeting, and the smile on her face became brighter.
