The little girl from a farm family has a big wish to make a fortune by farming and picking mushrooms

"Uncle Chen, do you know if there is anyone selling flower seedlings in Sanshui County? I want to plant some flowers."

Zhou Mingshu has the system in his hand, so he can get any flower he wants, but if he takes it out directly, that will definitely not work.

"Well..." Chen Sheng frowned and thought for a while, "I'm not sure about this, but I can ask around for you. All flowers and plants can be used as medicine. Where there are medicines, there are flowers and plants. Follow this line of thought and look for it."

"Yes, Mingshu would like to thank Uncle Chen in advance."

"Hey~ We are a family and we don't have to talk behind each other's backs. If my Banxia wasn't a girl, I would have wanted to bring you two together, haha."

"Dad, what are you talking about? You are talking in your sleep in broad daylight."

After being scolded by his daughter, Mr. Chen slapped his mouth and went to do his work.

"Sister Mingshu, don't listen to my father's nonsense. He often sees patients and jokes with them, so he's used to saying things like this."

"Haha, Sister Banxia, ​​Uncle Chen is right. If you were a man, I would definitely like you. After all, I liked you so much when you were a girl."

"I didn't expect you to be such a joker. You actually teased me..."

"Good sister, good sister, stop scratching me, I was wrong."

After hearing Zhou Mingshu begging for mercy, Chen Banxia withdrew his hand and said, "Tell me quickly, what are your plans?"

"Hmm~ What are you planning?"

Chen Banxia grabbed the medicine bag in her hand and looked at her. "Didn't you say you wanted to plant flowers? What kind of flowers do you plan to plant? Gardenias?"

"Well, to be honest, I haven't thought about it yet. Although my family is making money now, we haven't started to pay off our foreign debts. After paying off these debts, my family will still be penniless, with no land and no flower seedlings. Even if I think about it, it will be in vain."

After saying this, the cheerful atmosphere suddenly became dull.

"That's right, but don't worry too much. Everything is getting better. Even if you can't grow flowers, you still have wormwood ointment and gardenia ointment. These two alone will keep you busy."

"Yeah, don't worry, even if the sky falls, there is always someone taller to hold it up."

The two sisters chatted with each other while prescribing medicine for the patients, feeling relaxed and happy.

……

The Zhou family was very busy today. After breakfast, old lady Zhou began to arrange chores, and even the five-year-old Zhou Minghua was not spared.

"Sandan, take Si Ya to pick wild vegetables today. Make sure you pick enough for lunch and to feed the chickens. Lao Da, take Da Zhi and Xiao Jie to build a chicken pen, then take them into the mountains to pick some gardenias. Leave the rest to us."

Old Mrs. Zhou, along with her daughters-in-law and granddaughters, spread out the damp rice to dry. It was somewhat damp and she was afraid it would get moldy and be ruined.

After washing the clothes, she took everyone to cut mugwort and lemongrass. The stock at home was used up, and if they wanted to make mugwort ointment, all these materials had to be gathered.

Zhou Mingqin and Zhou Mingqi went to the village to pick mint, and Wang Xiaodan also went with them.

She finished her housework today and came to play with them.

Who knew they had so much work to do, so she followed them to help pick some. Picking mint didn't take much effort, and she could also listen to them tell some interesting stories, so she was very happy.

"Xiao Dan, I heard from my dad that your family also bought pork. Did you make mushroom oil?"

"Yes, I haven't had mushroom oil for a long time. The mushroom oil noodles I had yesterday were shiny and oily. I ate a big bowl of it and was so full that I couldn't sleep at night."

Wang Xiaodan made gestures as she spoke, just like Aunt Caixia, which made Zhou Mingqi drool.

"Wow, it sounds delicious."

She hasn't eaten mushroom oil noodles for a long time, so it would be great if she could have a bowl to satisfy her craving.

"Don't worry, your family has made mushroom oil anyway, if you want to eat it, just ask your mother to make it for you."

"Yeah, that's it. I'll ask when I get home."

With Wang Xiaodan's help, the two sisters' backpacks were filled quickly.

Zhou Mingqin pressed the mint leaves down and continued to sweep through the mint bushes.

There were so many porcelain bottles at home, and the mint was not enough. Besides, she wanted to eat scrambled eggs with mint leaves, so she pinched a handful of tender ones and put them aside.

"Xiao Dan, don't just pick them for us. Pick a handful of mint leaves and scramble them with eggs at home. They'll taste pretty good."

Wang Xiaodan looked at the emerald green mint in her hand, her eyes full of surprise, "Sister Qinqin, this mint can also be used for cooking. I just knew that every time I come to play with you, I can learn new things. It seems that I need to spend more time with you in the future."

"Come on, I don't believe you. Your mother will never let you go."

At this point, cracks appeared on Wang Xiaodan's bright face. It was true. Her mother was a little too strict with her.

But there is nothing that can be done about it. She said that it is not easy for women to survive, and when girls grow up they cannot always show their faces in public.

She has only one brother and no sisters. She is always worried when she goes out and says that she will be more restricted after she gets married.

Thinking of this, Wang Xiaodan sighed slightly.

Zhou Mingqi felt a little guilty when he saw that he had touched her sore spot. "Sister Xiaodan, didn't you say before that you wanted to learn to read? My grandma said that you can come to us anytime and we can teach you."

"Really? That's great. I'll tell my parents later." Speaking of learning to read, Wang Xiaodan became happy again. "Do I need to prepare anything to learn to read?"

"You don't need to prepare anything, just bring your brain."

After hearing what Arya said, the three of them burst into laughter.

Seeing that the backpack was full, the three of them walked home chatting and laughing.

Although the Wang family and the Zhou family are not next to each other, they are not far away either.

When they reached the intersection, Wang Xiaodan took a handful of mint leaves, waved goodbye to them and went home.

"Aunt, we are back. See if we have picked a lot?"

"More, these are enough, but they will be enough for you to wash for a while."

Feng had just finished drinking the medicine and her mouth still felt a little bitter. She quickly rinsed her mouth and then she felt better.

"It's okay. You don't have to wash them piece by piece."

Zhou Mingqin put the mint sprouts into a small pot, separating them from the other leaves, and then moved the large wooden pot over.

The large wooden basin had just been used in the morning. Feng used it to wash porcelain bottles. There was still some water in it, so they poured the mint directly into the water and started washing it.

These mints need to be washed at least three times before they can be clean. It doesn’t matter if the water used for the first wash has been used, and it won’t make them dirty.

"You guys stay at home and look after the house. I'll go out and see where Mingyuan and Si Ya are."

Feng was a little worried. This was how a mother was. Her heart was wherever her child was, and she would be worried if she couldn't see her child for a while.

She shouldered the last small basket in the house and went out with a shovel.
