Fu Huang: Husband, here is a ginseng

Chapter 17: The Familiar Huo Jinxiu

They kept walking until the midday sun became so hot that no one could bear it anymore. The headman then asked the team to stop and let the villagers find a place to rest and have lunch. Then they continued on their journey an hour later.

The villagers found a place and started cooking lunch.

Huo Jinqian found a spacious place with his back against a big tree to rest.

Mrs. Lu, Mrs. Liang, Mrs. Yang, Mrs. Lao, Mrs. Xie, Mrs. Zhong, Mrs. Huang and Mrs. Yu began to prepare lunch.

Huo Jin and Zhang Chan followed everyone. The three brothers Huo Zhicheng, Huo Zhiyuan and Huo Zhijun decided that they should eat and live together on the way to escape the famine, so that it would be easier for them to take care of their parents.

Mrs. Lu, Mrs. Lao, Mrs. Yu and my third aunt will definitely have no objection.

Before they fled the famine, they got along very well and were very united.

Because everyone was kind, Zhang Chan treated her three daughters-in-law equally without favoring any of them.

Another point is that Huo Jinqian is a scholar and his family's land will be exempted from taxes. If there is no good news like this, why would they do such a thing?

While the women from the three families were busy preparing lunch, Gao Zhijun washed the herbs she had dug and planned to boil a pot of water for the villagers to take with them to prevent heatstroke.

Huo Jinxiu ran over and saw Gao Zhijun washing the herbs. She helped wash them as well, "Sister, can I call you that?

My name is Huo Jinxiu, and I am from the third room. "

Huo Jinxiu was afraid that Gao Zhijun didn't know her identity, so she explained.

Gao Zhijun was washing the herbs while looking at Huo Jinxiu.

She had a small face the size of a palm, a pair of dark, clear deer eyes under her curved eyebrows, and her long eyelashes trembled slightly. If it weren't for her dark, yellow, and rough skin, she would definitely be a beauty.

Why is it that the Huo family only produces beautiful women and handsome men? Although Huo Jinzhou, Huo Jinhao, and Huo Jinting are not as handsome as Huo Jinqian, they have regular facial features and are also handsome men.

Looking at Huo Jinxiu who was helping her wash the herbs, with her sincere eyes and no ulterior motives, Gao Zhijun wanted to object but couldn't, so she just nodded slightly and uttered "hmm" in a nasal tone.

Although she didn't say it, she knew she agreed. Huo Jinxiu smiled brightly and said happily, "Sister, what are these herbs used for?"

Since my sister is quiet and doesn't like to talk, let her do the talking.

Seeing Huo Jinxiu chattering non-stop, like a happy little bird, Gao Zhijun was infected and said patiently: "These herbs are for the villagers to boil water to drink, which can prevent heat stroke, that is, sunstroke."

When she heard that it was for preventing sunstroke, Huo Jinxiu's eyes lit up and she looked at Gao Zhijun with envy: "Sister, you are amazing. You know all these. I can't do that. I don't know anything else except needlework."

Looking at the somewhat lost Huo Jinxiu, Gao Zhijun looked at a loss, as if she had made Huo Jinxiu unhappy. She wanted to comfort her, but she couldn't. She just stiffly uttered a few words: "If you want to learn, I can teach you!"

"Really? Sister, are you willing to teach me?" Huo Jinxiu, who had a lost look on her face just now, immediately showed a bright smile as if she had been given a shot of chicken blood.

She was happy for only a moment, then she began to wilted again: "But I can't read, I'm afraid I can't learn it."

Hearing that it was because of this, Gao Zhijun secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She thought she had upset her. "It doesn't matter if you can't read. As long as you know the herbs and remember their medicinal properties, that's all."

"Really? That's great. Don't worry, I will definitely study hard."

Huo Jinxiu said happily and excitedly, her lively eyes moving like a bright and dazzling night pearl, shining with dazzling light.

Her smile is an innocent and lovely one, so beautiful.

"Hmm!" Gao Zhijun still spoke sparingly.

Huo Jinqian sat down and began to write the contract. From time to time, he looked at the interaction between the two women in the distance.

Although I couldn't hear what they were saying, I knew that was a good thing when I saw my cousin smiling happily.

The corners of his mouth curled up slightly. If someone familiar saw him, they would definitely think that Huo Jinqian was possessed by evil spirits because he was actually smiling.

The Huo family's daughters-in-law were cooking and observing Gao Zhijun and Huo Jinxiu from time to time.

Seeing her daughter smiling so happily, Yu also smiled: "Second sister-in-law, your daughter is really capable!"

Hearing the third brother's wife praising her daughter, Mrs. Lu couldn't help but laugh: "That's right, Jun'er is a capable person.

Not only does she know martial arts, she can also treat illnesses."

Looking at his proud second brother and sister-in-law, Lao Shi felt a little jealous. What should he do?

Before, only my third brother’s wife had a daughter, which made the two families extremely envious.

Now, her second brother's wife has adopted a goddaughter, so she has to envy her two younger brothers and sisters because she has no daughter.

No, I also want to adopt a goddaughter.

However, when she saw the daughter adopted by her younger brother and sister-in-law, her ability made her look at the girls in the village with disgust.

She said sourly: "I am the only one who doesn't have a daughter. You all have daughters."

Looking at the jealous sister-in-law, Mrs. Lu and Mrs. Yu smiled at each other. The sister-in-law was jealous.

The two hurriedly comforted her: "Sister-in-law, maybe you can also recognize a well-behaved daughter!"

It's so fake. Don't you feel guilty for treating me like this?

So, I said angrily, "Can it be too fake?"

This made Mrs. Lu and Mrs. Yu laugh awkwardly, and they said a little embarrassedly: "Don't be angry, sister-in-law, it doesn't matter if we don't have a daughter, a son is also good."

Lao said contemptuously: "What good are these little bastards? They are all here to collect debts. They are not as good as a soft-hearted girl."

"How about, my second brother's wife give me your goddaughter?"

Lao thought he was very smart to come up with this idea.
