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

"Boss, after dinner, come with me. We won't wait any longer. Let's pay back those who can first. It's not good if the aroma of meat gets out to others, otherwise the villagers will think too much."

"Oh, okay, that's what I thought too. Wang Laizi just now stayed at the door and didn't want to leave. If I don't give him a few bites, I don't know what he will say when he goes back."

Old Madam Zhou lowered her eyes and said, "I won't return the ones that are close to me first, but the ones at the back of the village and the front of the village."

These people are not from the Zhou family. Although they don't ask for debts on weekdays, it's always better to pay them back first. After all, there is a layer of separation.

If you borrow and repay on time, it will not be difficult to borrow again.

Oh, she doesn't want to borrow again.

Boss Zhou brought out his Lihuabai tea, and the three brothers each had a bowl, intending to take a few sips.

"Dazhi, go get a bowl too. How can you be such a grown man and still not know how to drink? How are you going to find a wife in the future?"

Zhou Laosan shouted at him to bring another bowl. Zhou Mingzhi smiled embarrassedly, went to the kitchen to get another bowl, poured some for himself, and drank some with his father and uncles.

Zhou Mingshu looked at them drinking and eating meat with big gulps, and his heart seemed to be filled with something sweet.

The rabbit meat in the bowl was stewed till soft and tasty, not to mention the side dishes, which tasted even better than the rabbit meat. Zhou Mingshu couldn't help but eat more, especially the dried beans, which he never got tired of. The dried pumpkin slices were also delicious and chewy.

The food was so delicious that everyone ate it in silence. The only sound at the table besides the eating sounds was the smacking sounds of Zhou Lao Da and his friends drinking.

Although Zhou Mingshu doesn't drink alcohol, the aroma of fermented rice fills her nose, and she feels very comfortable just by smelling it.

She finished the pancake in her hand with the dishes and drank a bowl of mushroom soup, and then she felt better.

After cleaning the pot, she added two scoops of water and put the washed wild licorice roots in. Wild licorice has the effects of clearing away heat and detoxifying, and acting as a diuretic and reducing swelling. In this early summer when the temperature is high, it wouldn't be a bad idea to boil some sweet water for everyone to drink.

"Saya, what are you burning?" Zhou Mingqi followed.

"Second sister, I'm boiling sweet water, do you want to help me boil the pot?"

"Sure, I'll do it. Today we've collected a lot of herbs for making wormwood ointment, but we haven't mixed them yet. You can go mix them and we'll make the ointment tomorrow."

"Okay, I'll go then. Just boil the water."

Zhou Mingshu came to the basket and took handfuls of things. It was really convenient for him to do this because he had the system.

[One pound of wild mint is worth 15 points. Do you want to redeem it? ]

Once you get the item, the system will automatically identify the weight and value. It is simple and convenient.

Not long after, Zhou Mingshu prepared all the ingredients and just waited for his family to steam them the next day.

The women in the family had finished their meals, but the three Zhou brothers were still drinking.

Old Mrs. Zhou didn't plan to let him accompany her, so she called her two daughters-in-law to follow her, went to the main room to count the money, and then went out to return the money.

"Second sister, is it ready?"

"Yeah, okay, it was already smoking, and I saw there was something inside so I didn't dare to move."

This wild licorice root was of no use, so she picked it out and threw it away, then brought over the teapot and poured the wild licorice water into it.

Zhou Mingshu scooped out half a bowl, and the sweet water turned slightly green. She took two sips and found it very delicious. This sweetness was not the sweetness of sugar, but a sweetness with the fragrance of soil.

"Don't sit there. Don't you want to try it?" Zhou Mingshu said to Zhou Mingqi who was standing at the stove door.

"Okay, I don't like these teas. They taste worse than plain water, but I'll give them a try."

Hearing her say this, Zhou Mingshu smiled and said, "See if you will still be stubborn later."

Zhou Mingshu picked up the teapot and placed it on the dining table. If someone was thirsty, they could pour the tea themselves, so she wouldn't be busying around here.

After a tiring day, she took a shower and went back to rest.

Before she could mix the hot water, the astonished Zhou Mingqi started shouting.

"Sanya, it's delicious, delicious. This water is sweet and delicious. I think it's okay for me to drink more."

"It's okay. This sweet water can clear away heat and detoxify. It's better to drink more. But there is one bad thing~"

Zhou Mingshu touched his chin and saw Zhou Mingqi's anxious look.

"Ah? What's wrong with that?"

"Haha, if you drink too much, you'll have to go to the bathroom easily, and it'll be a bit troublesome to get up at night."

"So that's what it is. Then I won't drink at night, so I can drink during the day, haha."

Seeing that nothing would happen, Zhou Mingqi smiled and took his basin, intending to take a bath with her.

"Are you tired from all the work you've done today?"

"It's okay. It's just picking some grass leaves. How can it be so tiring? But why hasn't the soap you made before been made yet? It's too tiring to pound the clothes while washing them."

"Haha, you still remember it, but you need to wait a little longer. Grandma has stored a lot of soapberries in the main room. Why don't you take them out and use them first?"

"Come on, if I use it, my butt will definitely get chopped off. I'd better wait a while."

"Is this soapberry so precious? Aren't there many soapberry trees on the mountain?"

Zhou Mingshu was curious, why was soapberry so rare when there were trees everywhere?

"Yes, there are some, but there are not enough people who need them. Besides, the honey locust trees are full of thorns, so it is not easy to pick them. We have to wait for them to fall off. We villagers don't have so much time to stay in the mountains. We have to take our chances every time we go. There are many small animals in the mountains, and it is easy to rain and fog. If we go at the wrong time, the trees will all become moldy and rot."

It turns out there is another reason.

"Well, the soap will take another month to be fully made, but I can still use some of it to wash clothes. I'll bring you a piece later and you can use it first."

"Hehe, okay, then we don't have to be so tired tomorrow." Zhou Mingqi felt happy just thinking about it.

"Haha, you're overthinking it. We still have to steam the ointment tomorrow. You picked so many leaves, you'll be busy tomorrow."

"You're right, but we'll talk about tomorrow's affairs tomorrow. Today's work is done anyway. I'll go back to my room and continue learning to read. I can almost write the few words you taught me."

"Good, good, wait until you have learned everything, then I will teach you the rest."

The day passed quickly. She went out early and came back late every day. Although she was working as a handyman in Baicaotang, it felt no different from going to primary school. The knowledge was easy to understand and learn, and she had close playmates. It was quite free and easy.

She had indeed learned a lot these days, and what she said at home was working. Things were moving in a good direction, and she had nothing to worry about.
