Good Farming in Spring - C96 Zhang Liu Buy Eggs

He placed the bamboo plaque that was filled with the tea leaves on the good brick bed, then moved the bamboo plaque that had been dry for a while to the side, to make room for the new signboard. Lin Chunnuan then flipped through the tea leaves that had to be dried in front of him, and walked out of the house, just as Zhang Liu was about to enter the house to talk to her.

We went to return the bamboo tube to the two of us, while the two of you stayed at home to watch over your little brother and sister. I will be back in a while, mainly to watch over Chun Xiao, and not to sneak out again later.

When Chun Xiao was being mischievous, he always wanted to go out and see the world, so he had to look good.

“Got it Mom, go with Grandmother Qian. I’ll keep an eye on the family.”

Lin Chunnuan indicated for her mother and Grandmother Qian to leave the house. She didn’t need to think about her family, so she went to Dou Wang’s place to see him continue making bamboo tubes.

“Oh right, Mother, dinner is not ready yet. Looking at the time, Minzi uncle and the others will be back soon, right? “I’ll go and make sure you don’t come back too late.”

Lin Chunnuan remembered about dinner, she then told Zhang Liu who was at the entrance of the door that she was going to eat, got up and walked towards the kitchen.

There’s no need for you to go, it’s warm spring now, taking advantage of when you were in the house looking for tea, I stewed the meat and vegetables, and pasted the pot paste s on the side. There’s no need to cook food today, the pot paste s have mixed bean noodles, it should be very tasty, and when I come back, the meat should be ready, you don’t need to go to the kitchen, if not at ease, you can go in and take a look at the fire later.

Hearing that his mother had cooked all the food, Lin Chunnuan stopped in his tracks, returned to Dou Wang’s side, and looked at Chun Jiao who was playing with the chickens, and Chun Xiao who was extremely happy with Little Spot. Seeing that the two of them were playing, and seeing that his mother had closed the door to the courtyard, he turned his attention back to the making of the bamboo tube.

“Sis, I will also come to see Wangzhige as a bamboo tube.”

Chun Jiao finally had enough of chickens, so he ran over from the side of the chicken coop and burrowed into his sister’s embrace. From the moment he sat on the small stool, he hugged Chun Jiao tightly and intentionally moved him to the side, in case Dou Wang’s blade and axe made a mistake and hurt his sister.

“I want to watch it too. I want to watch it too.”

Now that Second Sister had snuck into Big Sis’s embrace, the little guy was jealous. He wanted Big Sis to hug him too, so Lin Chunnuan had no choice but to extend his legs and sit on one leg.

Dou Wang really admired Lin Chunnuan for spoiling her little brothers and sisters like this. If his little sister was able to survive, she would probably be around the same age as him, and he would definitely protect her little brothers and sister like she did in the spring.

Little Spot also came to join in the fun and jumped into Chun Xiao’s embrace. Chun Xiao was sitting on top of her warm spring legs, looking at the Wangzhige making a bamboo tube with her face towards the outside. When Little Spot jumped onto the bamboo tube, he reacted to the situation and grabbed onto Little Spot, and Little Spot ended up lying on Lin Chunnuan’s leg.

On Lin Chunnuan’s leg, there were two little people and a little leopard. They looked harmonious, as four pairs of eyes were staring at Dou Wang’s good hand, while Dou Wang’s good hand was skillfully cutting through the bamboo, and then grinding it.

She wanted to go to the Old Village Chief’s house to return the bamboo tube, and then to the Cinnamomum villosum’s house. In fact, the Cinnamomum villosum’s house was closer to the eastern end of the village, she wanted to go to the Cinnamomum villosum’s house when she returned, but in the end, when she passed by the Cinnamomum villosum’s house, the door opened.

“colum, where are you going?”

It was already night when they needed to go home to eat dinner. They couldn’t possibly go to the fields, so naturally, there was no need to report to Zhang Liu where the adults were headed.

“Sister Lin …” Oh, Sister-in-law, your sister-in-law is getting a little hot from her injuries and has a bad cough. I’ll go to the mountain side to get some medicinal herbs for her.

When the countryside became ill, they would randomly go up the mountain to pick some herbs. No matter what kind of medicine it was, it would be fine after being cooked and fed.

The villagers did not know whether the illness could be cured or not, but it was very strange. They did not know whether it was because the villagers had better resistance, or whether they had strong bodies when they were small, or if there was a minor disease. Every family drank the medicinal herbs when they were small, but most people drank the medicinal herbs when they had an effect.

“Oh, then go quickly, I’ll go inside to see sister-in-law.”

Zhang Liu greeted the colum and followed him into his courtyard. Because the colum was in a rush to gather the herbs, she did not accompany the two of them into the courtyard.

“Sister-in-law, I’m here to see you.”

Entering the house, seeing that the door inside was not closed, Zhang Liu knocked on the door twice, and then entered the house. Upon entering, he saw that Cinnamomum villosum’s face was flushed red, her eyes were scarlet red, and she was coughing non-stop.

“Da Nier, take a break. Let me do it.”

Zhang Liu walked to the side of the brick bed and sat down, then helped Cinnamomum villosum to move her chest, but Cinnamomum villosum still couldn’t stop coughing.

Zhang Liu reached out and caressed her forehead. It was a little hot, but not serious, but the cough was too strong, caressing her chest, she felt that her hands were jumping up and down, the red in his eyes was not because of fever, and with the current body temperature, it was impossible for his eyes to be hot like that. It was probably due to cough, it seemed that his cough was really severe.

“Zhang Liu, didn’t I say it already, there’s no need to return the bamboo tube, there’s already bamboo on the mountain, it can be cut at any time, there’s no need for you to take it seriously.”

Although he did not speak for long, he was interrupted countless times by the coughing sound. It was finally over, and the green color of Cinnamomum villosum was also getting stronger.

“What happened? Did you catch a cold?”

People in the countryside were actually quite afraid of getting sick. Normally, they rarely got sick, but every time they got sick, it could be fatal.

“I don’t feel like I’ve caught a cold. I was coughing a little this morning, so I didn’t think much of it. If only I had drunk some herbal medicine earlier, I wouldn’t have gotten so serious …”

Before he could finish his words, he felt another fit of coughing. He felt as if his internal organs were about to be coughed out.

“Stop talking, the colum went to gather herbs for you. You can drink some later.”

Seeing Cinnamomum villosum coughing like that, Zhang Liu felt very bad in her heart, but she couldn’t help her.

“Zhang Liu, just do what you have to do, stop accompanying me here, if I can’t help then I can’t say anything. If I catch you again, that would be bad, let’s go.”

Cinnamomum villosum began to support Zhang Liu, preventing her from staying in her house anymore, afraid that she would catch this disease.

Zhang Liu also knew that she could not help much, but she left just like that, looking at the little girl watching over him.

“Hurry up and leave. Right now, other than accompanying you and sitting here, there’s nothing else you can do. It’s not good for you to watch. Hurry up and go do what you need to do.”

The Cinnamomum villosum chased him out again, so Zhang Liu could only return the bamboo tube to him and followed him out of the house. They hesitated in the courtyard, but after confirming that he would not be of any help, he sighed and walked out of the courtyard.

In a short while, the two of them arrived at the Village Chief’s house. The Village Head Wife warmly invited Zhang Liu and the Grandmother Qian in and even poured two bowls of sweet water on them.

“Auntie Zhou, look at how courteous you are. If you continue, I won’t dare to come.”

The village head was surnamed Zhou, so everyone called the Village Head Wife their Auntie Zhou, Sister-in-law Zhou and so on, thus Zhang Liu called them that, when there were only two people, she actually didn’t need to call them by their surname, she just called them Aunt, and when there were many people, he would bring his surname to call them people, and it would be easy to differentiate between them.

“You’re still saying that I’m being polite? I’ve already said that it’s just a few bamboo tubes, so there’s no need to send it back. Look at you, I don’t know who gave birth to whom anymore.”

Village Head Wife was very enthusiastic, she had good intentions and got along well with the people from the village.

Because she was the Village Head Wife, the Zhou would not cause trouble for her, so she kept her personality to herself, and the more passionate she was, the closer the women in the village got to know her, and with just a few moves, the Zhou became the one of the few good friends in the village.

“Auntie Zhou, I am not here to return the money to the bamboo tube, but it is not difficult for me to do so. I have to leave some good thoughts for you and uncle, and if there are any problems, you and uncle must help.”

Everyone liked to hear good words, so Zhang Liu was not dumb.

Zhang Liu, Aunt knows that it is not easy for you to take care of your child by yourself, there is nothing that I can do to help, you know that it is fine.

As the two of them were talking, the Old Village Chief also returned from the fields.

“Yo, Zhang Liu is here, I already said that you don’t need to return these bamboo tubes, it’s not like they’re worth playing around with.”

Once the Old Village Chief entered the room, he immediately saw the bamboo tube on the table. Naturally, he blamed Zhang Liu for being too polite.

Auntie Zhou, I was thinking that your family also has chickens. Do you have any eggs left in your family, can you sell some for me? Otherwise, I would have to go to the town to buy some, I’m afraid that if I come back and break it, it would be a waste of money.

Hearing that Zhang Liu wanted to buy eggs, Village Head Wife immediately said that she had them.

I don’t know how much you want. I was thinking to sell it in the town if you wanted to buy it now.

“I want to buy eight of them. Do you have them at home?”

Hearing that Zhang Liu actually wanted so much, Auntie Zhou was happy.

“Yes, yes, yes. You brought a basket with you, right? Come, let me pick it for you.”

Zhang Liu then handed over the basket in her hand.

“Come with me, let’s pick the bigger ones. You know that eggs are sold at the same size and price, so naturally you have to choose the bigger ones. My eyes aren’t as sharp as they used to be, pick them yourself.”

Auntie Zhou was afraid that if he picked the egg, Zhang Liu would feel that she had picked a small one for her, so she gestured for Zhang Liu to pick it for herself.

“Auntie Zhou, you can pick whatever you want. It’s all your own eggs, how much difference can you make? We don’t have that much to say.”

Zhang Liu did not want to walk around other people’s houses too much.

Seeing that Zhang Liu was not willing to follow him, the Auntie Zhou happily went to pick up the eggs for Zhang Liu. Since they were all at home, it was only a few steps away from it.

“Zhang Liu, I picked up eleven for you, and you gave me ten gold coins, for a total of ten gold coins.”

One gold coin was not expensive, although it was all sold this way in the village, but they heard that it would sell for three coins and two coins in the village, the Auntie Zhou had also said that he wanted to sell it in the town, so Zhang Liu did not want the egg that was given to him. When the people of the village were short on money, she had pointed to the eggs in her house to trade for Chai Mi.
