"Uncle, where did this grass come from?"

Boss Zhou looked at it and shook his head. "Ask Erya. She has been at home. I went out in the afternoon and I don't know about this."

"Second sister, second sister, do you know where this grass comes from?"

Zhou Mingqi looked at it and found that this was the grass he had cut.

"I mowed it, what's wrong?" Is there something wrong with the grass? Zhou Mingqi was puzzled.

"Oh, where did you cut it? Is it far?" Zhou Mingshu's face was full of excitement and he didn't even bother to wash his hands and face.

"Not far away, just at the foot of the mountain in the sand. Si Ya wanted to catch butterflies, so I just cut a blade of grass..."

Before she could finish, Zhou Mingshu pulled her out.

"Come on, come on, take me to see this. This is wild licorice, a medicinal herb. You can boil it to make sweet water to drink."

After hearing what San Ya said, Zhou Mingqi finally understood, and the two of them quickly walked towards the foot of the mountain.

Everyone in the family put down their work and looked at the rabbit in the yard.

"Oh, this rabbit is so big, and its fur is so smooth."

"He was just a fool, how could he hit a tree?"

"Grandma, how do we eat this rabbit? Should we roast it or stew it?"

Old Mrs. Zhou picked up the rabbit, which must weigh at least four or five kilograms.

"Second brother, bring the scale and see how heavy it is."

Hooking the sweat towel on the rabbit's legs, the rabbit struggled so hard that Zhou Laoer weighed it casually.

"Almost five kilograms, about four or six or four or seven kilograms."

As soon as he opened his mouth, everyone became even happier, because there was still a lot of meat after removing the fur.

"Yeah, just tie it up like this and put it in the backpack. Let your eldest brother take care of it tomorrow. Today's meal is ready. Wash your hands and start eating."

After hearing what Old Mrs. Zhou said, they knew that the rabbit was in their mouths and could not escape. They originally thought that they would take it to the town to exchange it for money.

"Grandma, can we wait until the rabbits give birth before eating them?"

Zhou Mingyuan looked pitiful. He was happy that he had a rabbit at home, but sad that it would be eaten tomorrow. So he didn't know when he would have a little rabbit.

The eldest and second brothers are both unreliable, and he hasn’t caught any yet!

"No, this rabbit can't give birth to babies. It's a male rabbit."

Old Mrs. Zhou picked up the rabbit and took a look. The two rabbit eggs were quite big.

"Huh? Okay."

Zhou Mingyuan's eyes dimmed. This male rabbit could lay a good egg.

His hope was instantly shattered, and everyone around him laughed at him.

"Hurry up and set the table. I'm hungry."

"Hmm, I can smell the fragrance as soon as I enter the door. What delicious food did you make today?"

"Haha, the mushroom sauce made from the lard residue I cooked today is delicious. You guys should eat two more bowls of rice."

Everyone washed their hands and wiped their faces, then placed the food on the table one plate at a time.

"Hey~ Where are those two girls? Where have they gone?"

"Grandma, I just heard them say they were going to dig something."

Old Mrs. Zhou picked up her chopsticks and said, "Xiao Jie, go find your sisters and ask them to go home and eat quickly."

Zhou Mingjie ran very fast and disappeared in a flash. If he ran slowly, he would have to eat less of the delicious food. He had to hurry!

Zhou Mingqi took Zhou Mingshu to that place, found the grass stubble, and Zhou Mingshu picked up a shovel and started digging.

The roots of licorice are what you eat. Dig them up and take them home to boil sweet water.

According to the system prompt, there is another one next to it.

The two sisters each took one plant and started digging.

The soil was moist, but the weeds were overgrown and the roots of various plants were scattered in the soil, making it quite messy. It took them some effort to dig out the entire grass root.

"San Ya, see if there is any more. Let's dig some more and take them back."

"Yes, there must be one. Use the leaves and flowers to compare and identify it yourself. But let's go home and eat first. Xiaojie is here to look for it."

The two sisters looked at the road and saw Zhou Mingjie running towards them from a long distance.

"Let's go home quickly."

Zhou Mingshu cut off the grass stems, leaving only the grass roots. At first glance, the white and tender grass roots looked a bit like ginseng.

"Second sister, third sister, hurry up, everyone has started eating, if you are any slower there will be no more food."

Seeing Zhou Mingjie's anxious look, Zhou Mingqi and Zhou Mingshu couldn't help but laugh, making this greedy guy very greedy.

Zhou Mingshu threw the licorice roots into the basin, washed his hands and sat at the table.

"Wow, what did you make today? It smells so good~"

I was already a little hungry, and the smell of the food aroused my appetite.

"We made mushroom oil at home today. Come and try the dishes fried with the oil. They are delicious." As Zhu said this, she picked up a piece of food with chopsticks and put it into her daughter's bowl.

Cold-mixed purslane, cold-mixed viola yedoensis...you all know how to eat them.

This mushroom oil smells so good! Zhou Mingshu can't wait to have a bowl of noodles with it.

In addition to these, there are two stir-fried dishes, Amaranth fried with pork lard, lettuce with minced garlic, and a three-fresh mushroom soup.

The portion of each dish was huge, and everyone ate it with corn porridge and pancakes until their mouths were full of oil.

"San Ya, I boiled a lot of lard today. If you want to make ointment next time, use the oil jar behind your door. It's specially reserved for you."

Old Mrs. Zhou was eating while talking about household matters.

"Yes, okay grandma. Uncle Chen said that we still have to make the wormwood paste. We can't stop. The business in the shop is very good. I'm very busy today. The ones at home can barely last for two days. The rest, I'll rely on you when I'm not at home."

After Zhou Mingshu said this, everyone at the dinner table was very happy. As long as there was money to be made, no matter how hard or tiring the work was, it was all worth it.

“Don’t worry, Sanya. As long as I’m here, our ointment will never run out of stock.” Zhou Mingqi patted his chest and promised.

Liu picked up a piece of food with chopsticks and put it in her bowl. "Eat your food. Why do you interrupt when adults are talking? Even such delicious food can't stop you from eating."

Zhou Mingqi ate the food in the bowl and realized belatedly that she was half a year older than Sanya, so how come Sanya could speak but she couldn't? How could her mother treat her differently?

"Okay, the work in the fields is not busy. These things can be taken care of by the family. You don't have to worry too much. Just learn to read well."

Zhou Mingshu nodded while eating, "Let's go pick some gardenias in the mountains again. There may not be many left."

"Yes, that's right. Let them go tomorrow. But the honeysuckle in front of your second grandfather's house is running out of flowers. It's not right to keep picking other people's flowers. What do you think we should do? Is there any other way?"

"It's okay. I'll go ask Uncle Chen if he has it. If he doesn't have it, we won't make this version of the ointment. Other ointments are also very profitable."

Zhou Mingshu drank a bowl of mushroom soup, and his hunger disappeared, and he gradually felt fuller.

"Grandma, our family needs honeysuckle so much, why don't we plant some? Honeysuckle blooms early, has a long flowering period, and is easy to take care of."
