When Fang Qinghe woke up, he felt as if he had been in a dream.
The elder brother is reading a book, and the elder sister is arranging herbs. There is the smell of food in the kitchen, and neither the elder brother nor the elder sister are wearing filial piety.
"You?" Fang Qinghe came out and wanted to ask what happened.
Fang Qingshi stood up: "You are a lazy guy, go wash up and eat."
"Sister, what happened to you and eldest brother?" Fang Qinghe asked doubtfully.
"Come over and eat." Fang Qingshi went to the kitchen and took out the food and put it on the table.
Fang Qinghe ran over and said, "Be a vegetarian. If your loved ones pass away, you should become a vegetarian, sister!"
"Wash up! Eat!" Fang Qingshi's face darkened.
Fang Qinghe didn't dare to say anything anymore and went to wash up. Then he came over and looked at the minced meat in the wild vegetable porridge and stubbornly refused to take the bowl.
Fang Jing'an sighed: "Master's status is unusual, not to mention Miss Shen. We will lay the master to rest, but we cannot let everyone know the truth. Even if someone is targeting us one day, we are just doctors who treat illnesses and save people.
No one will survive without good skills, do you understand?"
"Brother." Fang Qinghe looked at Fang Jing'an pitifully.
Fang Jing'an whispered: "Let's eat. From now on, Master is no longer here, and Miss Shen is also gone. Let's live our lives. Master and he will not blame us."
"I have to go back in a while. I will go to Zheng's house the day after tomorrow and I won't live at home anymore." Fang Qingshi sipped her porridge: "Just do whatever you have to do. What's in your heart is more sincere than what you say on your lips."
The brothers and sisters ate quietly.
After dinner, Fang Qinghe cleared the table, and Fang Jing'an asked: "Ah Shi, how are things going over there?"
"It's not a big deal. The bad things that happened to the Li family won't fall on me. Don't worry about it." Fang Qingshi paused and said, "Brother, I want to make incense. This is a quick way to make money. If anyone comes to seek medical advice,
Let’s just go, there’s no need to look around for medical treatment.”
Fang Jing'an nodded: "I will also take the opportunity to learn the medical skills left by the master. If you have anything to do, remember to come home."
"I know." Fang Qingshi said with a smile.
The three brothers and sister still agreed to go up the mountain to collect herbs every day as before, so that they could meet every day.
When Fang Qingshi came back, he saw that the houses by the river were almost built. Duan Chengde and others were reclaiming wasteland. The court stipulated that wasteland would not be taxed for three years. Although the yield was not as good as fertile land, some edible melons might be grown.
Vegetables can save a lot of food.
There was no idle time at home either. Wang Ying and Zhou Ling, under the leadership of Li Cuihua and others, plowed the gardens in front of and behind the house, preparing to plant fruits and vegetables. After all, Fang Qingshi now had an acre of land in his hands.
No.
Fang Qingshi is not in a hurry to meet the Zheng family. He only wants to do business quickly. After these days of fermentation, more and more people will know that there is an escort agency in Luwu County and they can safely cross Qingwa Village, so in
At this time, I just need to wait.
Taking advantage of her free time, Fang Qingshi began to grow vegetables. She planted various vegetables, melons and fruits. When going to the mountains to collect herbs, she would also find some wild vegetables that would only be served on the table decades later and plant them in her own vegetable garden.
Zili.
Li Jinghe had been staring at people like Duan Chengde for several days, but found that these people were still hunting in the mountains, and no one went to the escort agency. He was suspicious and went to the escort agency, and found that there was a shopkeeper and a waiter in the escort agency.
Li Jinghe felt that Duan Chengde could only be an escort.
It was true that anyone who could open an escort agency must at least have money. He didn't think a poor hunter could have that much ability.
After resting his mind, Li Jinghe took the money to find Li Changming, but Mr. Min chased him away with a broom. When he returned home, Li Jinghe was in a lot of trouble.
Zhou didn't go out much these days. She was exhausted and called Li Jinghe in: "We don't have anything to eat or drink at home. People will die if this continues. Go buy some rice and come back."
"It's just such a small amount of money, it's gone when it's all spent," Li Jinghe said.
Mrs. Zhou sighed: "Will Xiangzhi and Xiangcui get their monthly money back?"
Li Jinghe's eyes lit up at these words. He didn't want to starve without anything to eat, so he went to Luwu County and bought half a bag of red grain and came back with a piece of pork.
Mrs. Zhou stopped lying down and ordered Li Jingtai to dig wild vegetables, fry lard in the kitchen, stew vegetables and make batter. The family of three rarely had enough to eat.
After eating and drinking, Li Jingtai talked happily about the people in Fang Qingshi's family.
Mrs. Zhou spat: "If you ask me to say that Duan Chengde is not a good person, look at how tightly he protects his hooves. What do those people mean by going down the mountain to live? Don't they want to be closer to his hooves?"
Li Jinghe also thought this was the case.
"So, you can't miss a day for three years of filial piety. Isn't the yard over there tight? I'll snatch it back for you to use as a wife. If someone really makes you pregnant, according to the rules, you will have to sink in a pig cage and sink in the pond!" Mrs. Zhou
He became more and more enthusiastic as he spoke, gritting his teeth and said: "Li Changming has cheated on our land. Now we can't squeeze our legs with our arms. When the Xiangzhi sisters make more money, we will buy the land and sooner or later we will live better than those people."
Li Jinghe sighed: "How are you living well? Can you still expect Xiangzhi and Xiangcui to find a golden husband?"
Zhou's eyes lit up: "That's right! How difficult is it to find a rich husband? They are both at a good age and surrounded by noble people. If they catch one, they will be popular and have a good life!"
"I'm afraid they are both stupid and don't know anything." Li Jinghe glanced at Mr. Zhou and said pointedly.
How can this be difficult for Ms. Zhou? She counted on her fingers for a long time: "In ten days it will be time to pay the monthly payment. The three of us will go away, and I, the mother-in-law, will give you a few words.
not easy."
Now Li Jinghe felt relieved and said attentively: "I can't just sit idle at home. Tomorrow I will take Jingtai to work for someone else's house, no matter how I can earn money for food and drink."
Mrs. Zhou sighed with emotion: "It seems that you still want to make a living. You have been blind for so many years as a mother. You still think that short-lived ghosts can make our family prosperous and rich."
Li Jinghe felt very happy.
Everyone in the family has always stared at Li Jingrui and tried to please him at every turn, but now he knows who the good guy is, right?
Early the next morning, Li Jinghe took Li Jingtai out and went to Li Changming's house instead of others, because Li Changming's house had the most fields in the village.
This thing went very smoothly, and Li Changming and Min didn't mind it. After all, the family had too few people, and spring plowing didn't wait for anyone.
Everyone in Lijiazhuang was busy with spring plowing, and Fang Qingshi's vegetable garden was also planted. Many people working in the fields saw Fang Qingshi taking two little girls into the mountains to collect herbs. They left early and came back late, and the medicine baskets were full of
Full of them.
The women in the village gathered together in small groups and began to discuss this matter.
"Who among us can't pick herbs? If not, just learn it. There are all unowned things in the mountains. You can make money by just digging them into your own basket." Someone whispered.
Li Cheng's wife next to her immediately said: "Isn't that right? Let me tell you, Fang Qingshi has connections. Let's go and ask, and we will definitely agree. She has no one to rely on in Lijiazhuang."
"Stop talking, the shameless guy is here." Someone said sharply.
Mrs. Zhou leaned into the crowd with her tattered cotton clothes, and as soon as her buttocks touched the stool, Li Cheng's wife and others left, leaving her alone. She didn't know who to scold anyone if she wanted to!
At this moment, a horse-drawn carriage entered the village in a show of force. Mrs. Zhou swallowed her saliva and ran home quickly, fearing that the Zhou family would come to cause trouble.
When the carriage passed by the gate of the Li family, Zheng Fu said: "Look, this is the Li family."
Mrs. Zheng lifted the curtain and saw the shabby door of Li's house slamming shut, and a lot of dust fell...
