In the years of famine, in troubled times, the koi sweet wife is omnipotent

"Well, I... I was picking mushrooms in the mountains, and I passed a path with thorns and plants, and I scratched my clothes. Luckily, it's nothing serious."

After Xia Wanwan finished speaking, she tugged at the clothes she was wearing and said, "As for this coat, I found it in a cave."

Having said that, I wonder if the smart Gu Huaijin would be suspicious.

"I'm glad you're not hurt. Go in and change your clothes."

Seeing her fair arms and thighs hugged outside, Gu Huaijin subconsciously avoided his sight.

"I'll go right away."

Xia Wanwan nodded, turned around, picked up the mushrooms, took them into the main room and put them down before going to her room to change clothes.

Gu Huaijin looked at her disappearing figure and was stunned for a moment.

He just...

It seems like he is calling her wife.

And she didn't look angry at all.

As Xia Wanwan changed her clothes, she felt something was wrong.

"By the way, Gu Huaijin seemed to have called me wife just now."

Xia Wanwan Muran realized that Gu Huaijin had not called her "wife" for many years, and he actually changed his address today.

No, she still felt something was wrong.

He is such a smart man, how could he believe what she said?

I didn't even doubt whether what she said about picking up the coat in the cave was true or not.

Or does he trust himself now?

Xia Wanwan changed her clothes and walked out of the room. She looked at Gu Huaijin busying around, and then thought of the noble man in the cave. Apart from their similar figures, their voices and auras were completely different.

Unfortunately, after Dahong recognized the master, the system had to be upgraded because it had to issue special tasks.

Otherwise, you can ask it if it knows the identity of that man.

"Where are the children?"

Xia Wanwan looked around and found that the children were not at home, so she asked.

"They wanted to eat the Houttuynia cordata you mixed, so Mom took them to the field to dig up Houttuynia cordata."

Gu Huaijin did not lie, because the children really wanted to eat, so he asked their grandmother to take them there.

"Then I'll go cook."

Seeing that it was getting late, Xia Wanwan hurried to the kitchen to cook lunch.

"With so many mushrooms, the weather is so hot, and there's no refrigerator, they'll all go bad in two days. I'd better share some with the neighbors later."

Xia Wanwan took out some mushrooms, washed them, cut them into slices, blanched them in water to cook out the earthy smell, and then washed them twice with clean water.

After completing this step, she cut some wild peppers picked from the mountains.

Also, no matter what kind of mushrooms you stir-fry, garlic is a must. If the garlic turns green, it means the mushrooms are inedible.

Although she picked up non-toxic mushrooms, she had to put them in just in case, and she had to slice them and put more in.

"Hey, where's the garlic?"

Xia Wanwan searched the kitchen but couldn't find any garlic.

Then I remembered that I seemed to have used up all the garlic when I ate fish yesterday.

It seems that she can only borrow some from her neighbors.

"Who should I look for?"

Xia Wanwan held her chin and thought about everyone in the village. She felt that only Uncle Wu, Li Dongmei, and Gu Baozhu, whom she had saved, would be likely to lend her money.

After all, in the eyes of others, her impression is not as good as that of the three of them.

Thinking of this, Xia Wanwan wanted to put some mushrooms in a basket, and then take some to her sister-in-law Gu Baozhu, and borrow some garlic at the same time.

Then I thought that mushrooms are still considered poisonous mushrooms in everyone’s minds, so I won’t give them to you for the time being.

Only if she is fine after eating them will people believe that some mushrooms are non-toxic.

"where are you going?"

When Gu Huaijin saw her leaving, he put down the tools in his hands and asked curiously.

"There's no garlic at home. I'm going to borrow some from someone."

Xia Wanwan stated her purpose directly and left.

"Borrow some garlic? Is there no garlic at home?"

Gu Huaijin didn't know what was in the kitchen, so he let her go.

But after a while, he suddenly remembered that Xia Wanwan had a bad relationship with the villagers.

If you go to borrow garlic now, you will be pointed at and scolded.

Thinking of this, Gu Huaijin put down the work in his hands and followed him out.

"Where's that person? How come he disappeared in the blink of an eye?"

After Gu Huaijin came out, she saw no one and thought about whose house she was most likely to go to to borrow garlic.

Xia Wanwan originally wanted to go to Li Dongmei's house nearby to borrow some garlic, but she soon thought of Zhao Ziyang and Dazhuang's fever, so she decided to go and see what the situation was.

"Second sister-in-law! Aren't you going to town to get medicine today? Why are you here at this time?"

As soon as Gu Baozhu finished speaking, she immediately realized that she had said the wrong thing.

"No, sister-in-law! Don't get me wrong, I...that's not what I meant."

Gu Baozhu was afraid that she would misunderstand her, and thought that Xia Wanwan should be in town to get medicine for her husband and son, so she hurried to explain.

"Baozhu, no need to explain. I know what you mean. How are your husband and Dazhuang doing now? I was busy with some things this morning, so I won't go to town until after lunch."

Xia Wanwan asked about the situation and gave a brief explanation.

"Following your method, the father and son are now much better, but they still have recurring fevers. Ziyang's condition doesn't look optimistic. If he doesn't take medicine, he might be susceptible to infection."

Gu Baozhu looked worried as she brought Xia Wanwan into the house.

Xia Wanwan took a quick look, then looked at Gu Baozhu, whose face was filled with worry, and said softly, "I've checked your husband's injuries. Although he still has a fever, it's not as high as it was last night. The wound has already scabbed over and there are no signs of inflammation, so don't worry! It's just that without the help of medicine, he will suffer a little more."

"I've checked Dazhuang too. His temperature is now around 38 degrees Celsius, which means you've done a good job of cooling his body physically. He keeps having fevers because there's inflammation in his body. As long as the inflammation goes down, the fever will go away. I'll bring the medicine back tonight and he'll be fine."

Xia Wanwan looked at Dazhuang's condition again and said that there was nothing serious.

"As long as it's okay, it'll be okay."

Gu Baozhu felt relieved when she heard her say again that her husband and son were fine.

"Baozhu! It's time to eat."

Gu Baozhu's mother-in-law's voice rang out in the main room.

"Here comes mother."

After Gu Baozhu responded, she took Xia Wanwan's hand and sincerely invited her, "Second sister-in-law! Let's have lunch here. The meal is already cooked."

"No need. I've cooked at home, but I haven't stir-fried the vegetables yet. Mom has taken the children out to dig wild vegetables, and your brother is busy with things at home, so I have to go back."

Xia Wanwan said this with a smile: "Baozhu! Well, can you lend me some garlic? We are out of garlic at home."

"Garlic?" Gu Baozhu nodded quickly after realizing what was happening. "Yes, yes, yes. I'll get it for you right away."

Gu Baozhu took out a large bunch from the kitchen and handed it to her.
