Liu Chen also came in when he heard about the Wushao Snake Medicinal Wine.

Grandma and Kong Yunxiang, who lived in the same village, were childhood sweethearts. They herded cattle and sheep together, hunted pig grass together, worked in the fields, went down rivers to catch fish and turtles, and climbed trees to dig out bird eggs.

My grandma’s name is You Meiying, she is cheerful and courageous, while Kong Yunxiang is thoughtful, considerate and gentle. Their personalities complement each other very well.

Kong Yunxiang's family has been practicing traditional Chinese medicine for generations, but then it slowly declined.

Grandma often caught black-tailed snakes and gave them to Kong Yunxiang to make medicinal wine.

The winters of that era were very cold, and there was a lack of food and drink. My grandmother went fishing in the river in the winter, and her legs were frozen and she got rheumatism. Every time it was rainy, her legs hurt badly. Kong Yunxiang secretly gave her the black-headed snake medicinal wine at home to drink.

This relieved grandma's leg pain. Whenever Kong Yunxiang had something delicious at home, he would secretly feed it to grandma.

The two of them grew up happily and sweetly like this.

Everyone thought that they would definitely be a couple when they grew up, and they also felt that they were a perfect match, a talented man and a beautiful woman.

But later, Kong Yunxiang's family fell into decline, and his grandmother was sold to the city with ten pounds of white flour and became the daughter-in-law of the lame grandfather Zhang Tianjun.

At that time, grandma would rather die than obey, but in that era when parents ordered matchmakers, you couldn't tolerate your unwillingness. You were locked in a dark room for a few days.

Grandma also wanted to die, but her family told her that Kong Yunxiang jumped off a cliff. Before he died, he told her family that she must live well.

In order to make Kong Yunxiang feel at ease, she had to live until now.

The lame grandpa is also very good to grandma. The two have never had a quarrel in their lives, but grandpa knows that grandma's heart does not belong to him. Grandma has always had another person in her heart, and he also knows that person. It's just that grandpa is here.

In the end, I didn't tell my grandma that in fact Kong Yunxiang didn't jump off the cliff at all and was still alive, but he just never married.

Kong Yunxiang has been living in the mountains and has little contact with the outside world. He has also passed down traditional Chinese medicine and makes some medicinal wine at home when he has nothing to do.

But these grandmas don’t know anything.

"Grandma, do you still miss Grandpa Kong?"

"Hey, it's all in the past, there's no use thinking about it anymore."

Grandma's tears flowed down her wrinkled face and dripped onto her shabby clothes.

"It's all over, I made you kids laugh."

Grandma wiped her tears and looked into the distance, as if recalling every moment she had with Grandpa Kong Yunxiang.

"Grandma, did you go find him later?"

In those days, once you got married, you had to stick to it till the end of your life.

In that era, everyone was very conservative. Once you got married and had a husband, that man would be your lifelong supporter. It was impossible to find another man. Even if the man died, he would have to remain a widow for the rest of his life.

Liu Chen also shed tears after hearing this. It is really a pity for such a poignant love.

Since grandma was bought by her grandfather Zhang Tianjun, she has cut off contact with her family and has never returned home until now.

In that era, boys were valued over girls. My grandma was a girl, and her family didn't regard her as a human being at all. They only hoped that you could exchange some money or food to supplement the family income. If you were missing, the food would be less.

Liu Chen asked Grandma the name of the mountain village again. Liu Chen always felt that Grandpa Kong was not dead, but was still alive and well, waiting for Grandma somewhere.

When he has time, Liu Chen must find Grandpa Kong Yunxiang and fulfill his grandma's dream. Even if the last thing he sees is a mound of dirt, he will take her to see it. This is grandma's lifelong dream.

"Grandma, are you hungry? I'll make snake soup for you."

Wang Xiong took the snake meat and went to make soup.

Liu Chen stayed and chatted with his grandma.

Grandma told Liu Chen how to catch black snakes, how to catch venomous snakes, and how to make the most delicious snake broth. She even told Liu Chen how to make snake wine.

As soon as Liu Chen heard about the medicinal wine, his mother, Wang Mudan, suffered from severe rheumatism. On rainy days, her legs hurt so much that it was even difficult to walk. This black-tip snake could just treat rheumatism, joint pain, and numbness of hands and feet.

Grandma only gave some superficial information. If we can find Grandpa Kong Yunxiang, who is a master in making medicinal wine, then Wang Mudan's rheumatism will be saved.

Since Grandpa Kong Yunxiang made snake medicinal wine, he may also have made some other medicinal wines. If he can get some of this and bring it to 2022, he will be rich.

The more Liu Chen thought about it, the happier he felt. He was one step closer to getting rich.

Not long after Wang Xiong's side, the snake soup was cooked and brought over.

"Grandma, taste the difference between this snake soup and the one you drank before."

Grandma took the snake soup and took a sip with a spoon.

"Well, overall it's okay, but this snake soup is a good thing, and with different Chinese medicines, the effects are different. If you add astragalus and dangshen, it can nourish yin and yang; if you add morinda, eucommia, and Cynomorium,

It can strengthen yang and strengthen the body; you can add yam, adenophora, and red dates to nourish qi and kidneys."

Grandma was talking while drinking snake soup.

Liu Chen really benefited a lot from hearing this. There is so much knowledge in it. He only knew that snake meat has high nutritional value and good taste. Snake meat is chewy and delicious. He didn't know the rest.

Grandma drank the soup and let her rest.

Wang Ying was weaving baskets in the yard, while Liu Chen and Wang Xiong came to the room.

Liu Chen took out the mosquito-repellent incense. This is a mugwort-type mosquito-repellent incense. When burned, it has a faint scent of mugwort. It is less irritating and does not smoke people.

When Liu Chen came, he had already destroyed the production days above.

Take out a plate and teach Wang Xiong how to break one plate of mosquito coils into two, how to light them, and how to place them.

After teaching, he took out the insecticide and sprayed Wang Xiong's bed and quilt again.

At this time, Gu Wanjun knocked on the door and came in. She greeted Wang Ying and came directly to Liu Chen.

Wang Xiong brought a stool for Gu Wanjun to sit down, took out the mosquito coil and demonstrated it to Gu Wanjun.

When it is lit, the faint fragrance of mugwort rises slowly, and the smell is very good.

“I feel like this will definitely be easy to sell, and it’s really effective in killing mosquitoes.”

Gu Wanjun also took a plate of mosquito coils and tried to split it into two.

The Three Musketeers set out.

The three people first went to Chen Yadong's home and brought him the things they brought to him. Then the three people went to sell mosquito coils and insect killers.

On the bicycle, Liu Chen carried Gu Wanjun while Wang Xiong rode on his own.

Speaking of Wang Xiong's bicycle, he bought it with Liu Chen's money.

Wang Xiong bought it with Liu Chen's bicycle ticket and the money from selling the watch. He didn't give it to Liu Chen for the time being. He bought a second-hand bicycle first and then paid it back. When the time comes, he will pay it back to Liu Chen after making money.

Liu Chen had already said that as long as Wang Xiong spent the money in the right place, he would misappropriate it first and then return it to him when he had money.

It's convenient to have a bicycle here. The only thing missing now is that Gu Wanjun doesn't have a bicycle. It's really not possible. Liu Chen will get her a women's bicycle from 2022. Seeing that she can't ride the 28-bar, she hit Mai Choi last time.

Up there.

It is very convenient to have a bicycle for this speculation.

But I can't tell her now. Judging from her behavior, this bike is not just a gift. The giver has no intention, but the recipient has intention.

Chen Yadong and Wang Xiong are also familiar with each other. Gu Wanjun took Wang Xiong there last time.

As soon as they entered the door, the three children immediately ran over and hugged Gu Wanjun affectionately, and then ran over to hug Liu Chen and Wang Xiong.

"Dad, look who's coming?"

Liu Chen was very pleased when he saw that a lot of things had been collected in the yard, including cabinets, chairs, and bottles.

This is not valuable now, but it will become valuable later.

"Oh my, you're here. You brought so many things."

Zhang Mei heard the noise at this time and came out with the child in her arms.

"Look at you, you bring so many things."

Gu Wanjun ran to Zhang Mei and hugged the baby.

"I haven't seen you for a few days, and I seem to have gained weight again."

Gu Wanjun held the child in her arms with a look of love and affection.

Wang Xiong told Chen Yadong about the exciting process of going to Liu Chen's house to hunt wild boars and catch pythons, which made Chen Yadong anxious.

In fact, I wanted to go with him at that time, but considering that I didn’t have a bicycle, and Wang Xiong had just learned it, there were still some disadvantages in bringing someone along. Also, there were many children at home, and I was afraid that Zhang Mei wouldn’t be able to take care of them, so I didn’t go.

Already.

"Hey, if I had a bicycle, I would go there that day."

Liu Chen patted Chen Yadong and told him to do a good job. He would definitely buy a bicycle soon.

Chen Yadong nodded firmly, looked at Liu Chen, and smiled.

Now Chen Yadong is busy every day, pulling the cart everywhere to collect things. Every time he collects something, he thinks of Liu Chen giving him corresponding rewards, and he sees hope. He is no longer the bastard he used to be.

Chen Yadong was waiting for death, but now he has found the meaning of life.

With three daughters, one son, and wives around him, what more could he ask for? Just work hard.

Liu Chen took out another two hundred yuan and asked Chen Yadong to collect his things. By the way, he asked him about finding a house, but he hadn't found it yet.

Now I don’t have much money on hand, and even if I find it right away, I may not be able to afford it. Buying a house in the county, a three-bedroom house with a yard and a wing room costs about a thousand yuan. At this time, the house and

It will be different in 2022. Houses at that time cannot be bought or sold, but some people do sell them privately. You have to pay it off in one go, unlike in later generations where you can still pay a down payment and mortgage.

Make money, make money.

The three people came out of Chen Yadong's house, and the "Three Musketeers" walked toward the black market carrying mosquito coils and insecticide.

Generally, the black market is in the morning, and there are not many people buying things in the afternoon, but it is also open in the afternoon, and there is also a flea market that you can go to. Although there are not many people buying things, there are still people selling things.

Ps: Thank you very much for your recommendation votes, thank you! I wish you and your family peace and happiness!
