I am a woman, I am a man, I want to marry a wife so that I can farm
Chapter 41 White-Eyed Wolf
Ye Ze sat next to Ye Qiulan, scooped a little with a small wooden spoon and fed it to the child. However, the little that had just been fed in flowed out from the corners of the child's mouth.
"That won't work," Ye Ze frowned and said, "How about this, sister, hold the child up a little, pinch her chin, and I'll pour the liquid directly into her."
"Ah? Oh..." Ye Qiulan obviously didn't expect her brother to say such a rude thing. She was stunned for a moment and quickly did as he said.
Ye Ze carefully poured the medicine directly into the child's throat. Daya choked and coughed twice, but finally swallowed all the medicine.
The next step is to wait.
Soon a quarter of an hour passed...
"Why do I feel that Yaya's face looks a little rosy? Can you guys see if it's true?" Zhao Li had been observing the child's face. Seeing that her face was getting rosier by the minute, she couldn't help but speak out.
"Yeah," Ye Qiulan smiled slightly, "My breathing has become much smoother after listening to this. Third brother's powder is really effective."
Old Mrs. Ye and Mrs. Lin also looked over.
"Thank God for the Bodhisattva's blessing..." Seeing the child's condition improve, Old Lady Ye breathed a sigh of relief, and then she remembered to ask Ye Ze: "By the way, Ze'er, how do you have such a useful medicine powder?"
"Uh, what a coincidence. Today I met a traveling doctor in town who was treating a child. After the child took the medicine he gave him, his symptoms soon improved a lot. I thought that we have many children in our family, so I bought some necessary medicines in advance to be prepared." Ye Ze lied calmly.
"Oh," Old Lady Ye nodded, believing it to be true: "This is really a coincidence."
"This medicine is not cheap, right? How much did it cost?" Ye Qiulan asked.
Ye Ze: "It's not expensive. If it's too expensive, I can't afford it. Don't worry about it, taking good care of Yaya is the most important thing."
Ye Qiulan said stubbornly: "How much is it? I can pay you back later if I know the amount."
"I'm the child's uncle, so what? I have to keep accounts when I spend money on the child?" Ye Ze frowned unhappily: "Aren't you still my sister even after you get married? We are a family, why do we have to make such clear distinctions?"
Ye Qiulan was silent for a long while before she said "Hmm."
By the time Chen had boiled the medicine and brought it in, Daya had already woken up. The little girl's eyebrows were wrinkled as she drank the bitter medicine, but she still drank it down mouthful by mouthful.
Zhao Li was almost heartbroken by this little girl. She was so sensible at such a young age. She really couldn't understand how the Zhang family could be so cruel to ignore her?
After Daya finished drinking a small bowl of medicine, Zhao Li immediately stuffed a piece of fruit candy into her mouth: "Sweet mouth, is it delicious?"
Feeling the sweet and sour taste in her mouth, Daya smiled with her eyes curved: "Okay, thank you."
"So good!" Zhao Li couldn't help but pinch Daya's cheek and said with a smile: "I am your little aunt, call me aunt."
"Aunt?"
"Well, how about playing with Auntie? Let's let your mother rest for a while."
Daya looked up at Ye Qiulan, who looked exhausted. In order to take care of Daya, Ye Qiulan had barely slept for two days and two nights. Daya thought for a moment, raised her head and smiled at Zhao Li, opening her arms: "Auntie, hug me."
Zhao Li picked up Daya in surprise. She didn't expect that the child would take the initiative to let her hold her. She was worried that she would be shy.
"Sister, we are taking care of Daya, just lie down and take a nap."
Seeing that Daya's mental state was indeed better, Ye Qiulan felt relieved. She handed the child to Zhao Li and lay down on Grandma Ye's bed to rest.
It was almost evening when Ye Xiaomai and the others came back. Each of them had a basket filled with a lot of things. In addition to wild vegetables and pig grass, there were also some wild fruits. Seeing that there was a little girl like Daya in the family, the children all happily gathered around her to play.
After a while, people from the tribe also came to the Ye family carrying herbs. There were indeed more people coming today than in the previous few days. Almost every household had someone going up the mountain. Boss Ye and his men simply weighed the herbs that people brought and bought them.
A lot of herbs had been dried in the yard, and the dried ones were packed and placed in Ye Ze's house.
When there are more people, there is more to talk about. Everyone was talking about what happened today when they went up the mountain. When they saw the ox cart in the yard, many people gathered around. They didn't expect that the Ye family bought an ox cart in just a few days. It was really enviable.
"Ye Da, did you buy this ox cart today? It's expensive, right?"
"This cow looks strong and must be able to pull a lot of things."
Boss Ye was talking to people with a smile on his face while busy weighing and settling accounts without any errors.
Of course, not everyone is a good person. Seeing the ox cart of the Ye family, someone couldn't help but say something sarcastic: "Could it be that the Ye family bought our herbs at a low price and then sold them at a high price? Otherwise, how could they pay off their debts so quickly and have money to buy an ox cart?"
The sound was not small, and the people around her looked at her with strange eyes, and consciously stepped a few steps away from her. If Ye Ze hadn't learned the ability to identify herbs from books, would you be able to make money by selling herbs?
Haven't you seen that other people in the village only pick some common herbs? I don't know if they can sell them at a good price.
Ye Ze was helping to count the accounts beside Boss Ye. Hearing this, he smiled and said to the woman who was talking, "Aunt You, we won't buy your herbs anymore. Let Uncle Zhuzi take them to the town to sell tomorrow. He can get more money back."
The person who was speaking was none other than Skinny Monkey's stepmother, Youshi. The eldest daughter-in-law in their family had just become pregnant with her second child and could not do any work. The second son, Skinny Monkey's half-brother, was also of marriageable age.
There are seven or eight people in the family, young and old, to feed, and all these things cost money. Unfortunately, this year was a bad year, and an additional 20% grain tax was levied. The remaining food was not enough for the family. Her husband and eldest son could not earn as much as one person in the village who went to the mountains to collect herbs in a day's work in the town. So she went to the mountains to collect herbs with the villagers.
After hearing what Ye Ze said, You Shi became more certain of her guess and immediately said, "Hear what I said? You just wait to be cheated by him. I will carry them to the town to sell them tomorrow. You will know if I make more money then. Just wait." After saying that, You Shi put on her backpack and turned to leave.
Hearing this, everyone else shook their heads helplessly. This Youshi is really an ungrateful person!
"Bah! I shouldn't have taught her to identify herbs. This Youshi really doesn't know what's good for her. Ze'er, ignore her. We trust you."
"Yes, Ye Da, go ahead and weigh it. When you're done, go home and have dinner."
It is even a question whether Youshi can be sold tomorrow. Ye Ze will not be angry with her. No matter how united a group is, there will always be a loner.
Ye Ze grinned and said, "It's okay, I won't take it to heart, everyone continue to line up."
