Chapter 205: Apply medicine (second update)
Mrs. Cui nodded and said, "That's fine."
The two of them came to the door of the house. Mrs. Cui saw an old locust tree not far away with many locust flowers on it, and said, "Let's pick some locust tree flowers after dinner, and mother will make buns for you to eat."
Mrs. Cui just wanted to be nice to Jiang Zhiluo, and she wanted to do it with all her heart and lungs.
Jiang Zhiluo smiled and said, "Okay, when I come back my mother will pick some locust flowers together, and we will make buns together."
Mrs. Cui said: "Don't worry, you still have to show your father's feet. Mother can do it alone."
The two of them went home and had lunch first. After lunch, Mrs. Cui packed some things for Jiang Zhiluo, and Jiang Zhiluo took them back to Xingshan Village.
It was just after lunch, and there were people sitting under a big tree at the end of Xingshan Village talking.
“No one in our village sells food, so why are these two people going from house to house?”
"Be determined to collect grain. If you can, harvest as much as you can."
“Brother Jiang has said that it is best not to sell food outside. Once Brother Jiang says this, it means that you cannot sell food outside.”
"That's right, everyone fled with Nephew Jiang Xian back then, and they all know the way Jiang Xiannephew talks. They don't speak too clearly, so as not to be complained about later. They only give opinions, and it's up to you to listen or not. Big guy’s business.”
“In the group of people who fled the famine with Brother Jiang, there were a few people with evil intentions who refused to obey Brother Jiang, so they died on the road.”
“It’s because they are stupid and don’t listen to Brother Jiang’s advice. Either they will be eaten by wolves or they will suffer from the miasma..."
“Our group of people will not sell grain at this time anyway. If we charge two cents more per pound, there must be a problem.”
“The original residents of Xingshan Village may not know how powerful Uncle Jiang is, and they may not listen to Uncle Jiang.”
“People in the village are accustomed to looking at what others do. No one sells food, so one or two households who want to sell food are not sure and will hesitate. No, they are still waiting and watching, and they have not sold food.”
…
When Jiang Zhiluo came to Xingshan Village, she heard some men in the village gathering to discuss selling grain.
Hearing that they said no food was sold out, Jiang Zhiluo nodded secretly.
But she also realized that her father’s words in the village were so powerful.
When Jiang Zhiluo was walking to her parents' house with a basket on her back, everyone in the village spontaneously stopped talking and looked at her.
“This is Brother Jiang’s eldest daughter.”
“As expected of Brother Jiang’s daughter, she seemed a little not very smart before, but now she seems to have suddenly enlightened and is capable.”
“It is said that I was stimulated when I was a child, so my reaction was a bit slow. Now that I have grown up, it will be better.”
There was also an old lady who took the initiative to talk to Jiang Zhiluo: "Zhiluo, aren't there any people in your village who go to collect grain?"
Jiang Zhiluo grew up in Xingshan Village and recognized this old lady. She said, "Grandma Li, there is a grain harvester in our village, but the steward said that the war in Qingzhou has doubled the price of grain, so he wants to collect grain from our village." The food is being sold.”
Hearing this, several people nearby stood up quickly and came to Jiang Zhiluo, "Zhiluo, are you telling the truth?"
Jiang Zhiluo nodded and said, "Yes, if you don't believe it, auntie, just go to our village and ask around. Besides, I went to the grain store in the town and county to buy grain, and the price per kilogram also increased by one or two cents."
The aunt slapped her thigh and said, "Oh, let's just say they don't have good intentions. How could they increase the price of our food so well? That's the problem."
“Fortunately, Brother Jiang reminded everyone, and fortunately we listened.”
“Just say what Uncle Jiang said is right.”
“Yes, nephew Jiang Xian will not say anything casually. Whatever he says is fine..."
“Zhiluo, thank you.”
"You're welcome, ma'am. It was also the steward who collected the grain who said it. We don't know the news either."
After saying a few words to the villagers, Jiang Zhiluo returned home.
When Jiang Zhiluo arrived home, her parents and younger brothers and sisters were picking up sophora flowers in the yard.
Everyone gathered around Jiang Zhiluo happily when they saw her. "Sister..."
“Sister…”
Everyone shouted happily.
Jiang Zhiluo said: "You picked so many locust flowers?"
Jiang Yunzheng said: "Sister, we went to pick it after breakfast. People in the village still asked about it, so we said that locust flowers can be used to make buns."
This is what Jiang Zhiluo came to tell them last time, saying that after the Sophora japonica flowers grow, they can be picked to make buns and dumplings for eating.
Jiang Yunzheng and the others have always remembered that when they saw sophora flowers, they hurriedly picked them as a family.
The more people there are, the more powerful they are, so they pick a lot and can make a lot of buns.
Now at home, she goes to the market and sets up a stall to do a small business. She can make a lot of money every episode and has an income. Ms. Ye is also willing to make some delicious food.
In the past, I would have been reluctant to eat white bread, let alone put meat in it.
Jiang Xiangchuan is making bellows, and there are some finished umbrella frames and other things beside him.
There is also a small pool next to it with soaked bamboo in it.
She knew that making bamboo took a long time, and it would probably take more than a month for her father to make the umbrella.
Because soaking bamboo also takes time.
But if you make a lot of umbrella ribs and accessories at once, if you do more in one process, you can make several umbrellas at once.
Jiang Xiangchuan put down what he was doing and was about to stand up. Jiang Zhiluo hurriedly said: "Dad, don't move your feet or use any strength."
“Okay, okay, I won’t move.”
Jiang Zhiluo said: "Have you kept applying the medicine I gave you last time?"
She brought over the prepared medicines when she came last time. One of them was applied on the feet to nurse them back to health, so that she could easily break the bones and re-set them for her father.
Jiang Xiangchuan said: "Don't worry, apply medicine every day, and drink the medicine every day."
Jiang Yunshu added next to him: "Third sister is very attentive. She makes the medicine every night."
Jiang Yunhua is very good at these meticulous tasks.
Jiang Zhiluo waved Jiang Yunhua over and said, "Third sister, come here and I'll take a look at your face first."
Jiang Zhiluo also prepared Jiang Yunhua's facial medicine and applied it twice every morning and evening.
Jiang Yunhua looked at Sister, his eyes sparkling, "Sister, I feel that the scars on my face have faded a bit."
Jiang Yunmian said: "Yes, after sister washed her face in the morning, I looked at her face and felt much better."
At this time, Jiang Yunhua's face was still smeared with medicine.
Jiang Zhiluo said: "Third sister, wash off the medicine first, and I'll show it to you."
Jiang Yunhua nodded and hurriedly poured water to wash his face.
Whether it is medicine for Cui Hejin to heal her body, or medicine for her father and Jiang Yunhua, some of these medicinal materials are extremely precious and difficult for her to find.
Those medicinal materials are not available in the market. Even if someone has them, they have already been bought at a high price.
It was also thanks to Zhuang Xingan that he helped to find all the medicinal materials.
But this also gave her a deeper understanding of Zhuang Xing'an's strength.
If you don’t have some strength, you won’t be able to find all these medicinal materials.
