Chapter 52

Wang Xiaole was stunned by Bi Chunliu's pull. He blinked his eyes and asked softly, "Sister, what's wrong?"

Bi Chunliu whispered back, "That old man is from our compound. He's a real chatterbox. I don't want to run into him. Xiaole, let's wait a bit before we leave."

"good……"

Bi Chunliu secretly glanced over there, thinking, "Doctor Shen? A magic formula? What is this? Do they have something like this?"

"What magic recipe? We don't have that kind of thing, don't talk nonsense!" The old lady sitting opposite Uncle Qi frowned and looked at Uncle Qi with a dark face.

"Sister, please have pity on me. I'm really not a bad person. My two sons gave birth to girls. You know, how can we live without a son? Now my daughter-in-law is pregnant. I don't want to do anything but ask for medicine!" Uncle Qi said with tears in his eyes.

It hadn't been easy for him. It had been several days, and he'd spent nearly twenty yuan to finally get this address. They said the miracle doctor was hiding at his sister's house. He'd taken the day off specifically to come here today, so how could he give up so easily?

Wang Xiaole imitated Bi Chunliu, leaning against the wall to watch, and whispered, "Sister, this old man is going to be cheated..."

Bi Chunliu looked at him in surprise. "How did you know? Is this old lady a liar?"

Wang Xiaole raised his head and said, "Everyone here knows this! Aunt Shen often cooks some smelly and bitter medicine. She says it's good for the body, but everyone else says those bitter medicines are a lie! My dad also said that a sister can't become a brother! If this isn't a lie, what is it?"

Bi Chunliu touched Wang Xiaole's head, nodded and said, "You are right, he is indeed a liar."

Look, even the kids know it, but this old man doesn't understand. I think it's true that I saw Uncle Qi had some thoughts about this reincarnation drug...

Didn't they say you have to wait until you're pregnant before taking the medicine? Is Deng Hong pregnant? No, Uncle Qi was just talking about his daughter-in-law! Daughter-in-law! How could he have a daughter-in-law?!

Bi Chunliu recalled a rumor from his previous life that Uncle Qi's nephew was born to him and his sister-in-law, and was not a posthumous child as they said.

!!!

No way? What era is it now? Is there still a saying that two branches can be heirs?

Aunt Shen looked around the alley and still refused, "No, no, you better leave quickly. If you don't leave, I'll call the police. What nonsense are you talking about? We are all honest people."

Uncle Qi continued to beg, "Sister, I don't want anything else. Can you give me a copy of that magic recipe and I'll find someone to get the medicine myself? Sister, I really want a copy of the medicine." As Uncle Qi spoke, he took out ten yuan from his pocket and stuffed it into Aunt Shen's pocket. His hands moved briskly, but his heart ached.

When Aunt Shen saw the money, her expression brightened a little. She looked around and put the money away. "Wait a minute, I'll go ask."

"Oh, okay, thank you for your help." Grandpa Qi nodded repeatedly. He was happy in his heart. It seemed that God had finally found the right place. His eldest grandson was finally coming...

After a while, Aunt Shen opened the door.

"Here, I have these herbs at home, so you don't have to buy them and get cheated by that black-hearted person again. Here, these are for two months, thirty dollars in total, so you don't have to pay the doctor's fee." She was clearly asking for money, but Aunt Shen said it as if she was giving someone a reward, and she was condescending.

Good fellow, she could have robbed people of their money, but she still gave them something that probably only cost a few cents. Aunt Shen is truly kind...

Although Uncle Qi felt bad about spending the thirty yuan after receiving the reward, he felt that it was worth it in exchange for a grandson!

Grandpa Qi carefully took the herbs. Perhaps because he was thinking of his eldest grandson, he smiled so hard that his eyes disappeared. "Okay, okay! Big sister, here you go."

"Okay, then you can leave quickly." Aunt Shen said and closed the door.

Uncle Qi put the herbs away, carefully put them in his arms, and ran away with a nimble figure.

Bi Chunliu: ... Uncle Qi always complains about feeling uncomfortable here and there, and even the water for washing his feet has to be brought to him by Qi Chao. Now he is running so fast!

"Squeak~"

Bi Chunliu quickly retracted her head, and Aunt Shen opened the door again.

"Sister, I told you that this person will not come back, but you still don't believe it? There is no one else here, what will happen to me later?" A man who looked honest and loyal was pushed out by Aunt Shen.

Aunt Shen: "No, you've already made the money. If this person reports you again, you should go back to the countryside and hide. Er'an, you'd better hurry up and find a wife and have children. If you don't get married and have children, won't our family roots be cut off?"

"Why should I give birth? I'm free and unrestrained. Sister, just let me stay in the city. It's hard to even get a bite of meat in the countryside!"

Seeing her brother's nagging, Aunt Shen stopped nagging him to get married and have children. Bi Chunliu watched as Aunt Shen paid out a pound of meat coupons and a pound of sugar coupons before sending "Doctor Shen" away.

After scolding her brother, Aunt Shen went out with a small basket in her arms.

The alley returned to peace.

Wang Xiaole: "Sister, shall we go?"

Bi Chunliu stuffed another candy into Wang Xiaole's hand and said, "Let's go!"

"Wow - thank you, sister!!" Wang Xiaole carefully put the candy into his pocket, feeling very happy. This sister is so nice!

Although Wang Xiaole is not very big, he is very thoughtful. He sent Bi Chunliu out, accompanied Bi Chunliu to wait for the bus, and helped Bi Chunliu hand over the wooden box.

"Sister, be careful on the road. Come back next time. I'll treat you to candy next time!"

Wang Xiaole spoke thoughtfully. Two older women on the bus looked at Bi Chunliu and said with envy, "Don't look at your brother's small size. He's quite considerate of his sister."

"Yeah, this kid is really good..."

Bi Chunliu: “…”

It's pretty good, but when Xiaole calls "sister", he must be thinking of "toffee" in his heart... This kid is quite interesting.

.

Bi Chunliu returned home and greeted Grandma Zhang. He remembered that Master Wang had asked Grandma Zhang if she was okay. After thinking about it, he decided not to tell Grandma Zhang.

She put the box in the house and planned to have a quick lunch, find a place to dig in the afternoon, and if there was any time left, go to the suburbs to find some other food.

Ever since she caught the rabbit last time, she has been so confident!

.

"Uncle Qi, this is too strange. How can you make medicine like this?"

"Yes, Lao Qi, you're still boiling it in the courtyard, and you didn't tell us in advance that it was this kind of medicine. If you had told us in advance, we would definitely not let you boil it here! It stinks so much, I can't even stay in the house!"

Bi Chunliu was carrying a sack of dirt and was covered in dust. Before he even entered the door, he heard the complaints of Bai Xingzi and Aunt Zhang.

As soon as I entered the gate, I saw Uncle Qi boiling medicine on a small stove. The medicine was bubbling and emitting an indescribable smell.

Sour, smelly, and fishy... Ugh~

"How can there be any smell? Don't all medicines smell like this? It's not as bad as you say!" Uncle Qi looked at the other people in the yard unhappily.

Aunt Liu called out from the window, "Lao Qi, why don't you just move back home and cook? How are we going to cook here?"

Aunt Zhang: "That's right. My Jianyuan said he brought a roast duck from his father-in-law's house today. Now the duck meat we had tonight tasted stinky and fishy like medicine."

"That's right. My husband Nie asked me to cook the meat, and now it has a mixed smell." Bai Xingzi fanned the air in front of her nose and also expressed disgust.

Uncle Qi came closer to the pot and said, "You should follow my example. Don't breathe in through your nose, use your mouth. Once you get used to it, it won't smell that bad."

Bi Chunliu: "..." Uncle Qi really made everyone suffer in order to make medicine...

"Chunliu, you are covered in dirt. Where have you been?" Aunt Liu came out of the house pinching her nose.

"Aunt Liu, I thought of planting some vegetables in a box under the window. This is the soil I dug."

Aunt Zhang looked at the sack and said, "You are a good thinker, but you can't grow much, right?"

Bi Chunliu smiled and said, "I just grow some onions, garlic, and so on. There's not much space for growing vegetables in our compound, right?"

"That's true..." Aunt Zhang said regretfully. If she could grow vegetables, it wouldn't be this girl's turn.

Aunt Liu: "Seeing this girl growing vegetables reminded me that Aunt Qiu once said that someone in their compound asked if they could raise a chicken in the yard so they could eat eggs."

Raising chickens? Bi Chunliu looked at Aunt Liu. If she could, she would also like to raise chickens.

Aunt Liu saw Bi Chunliu's excitement and said, "Don't even think about it. It won't work! We went to the street office to ask, and they don't agree."

"Alas..." Bi Chunliu was full of regret. Could it be that she could no longer own the legendary chicken shit bank?

After saying hello to a few middle-aged women, Bi Chunliu headed home, carrying a sack on her back. She put the soil under the window, intending to clean it up and plant the rapeseed seeds, but in less than five minutes, she grabbed a basket and hurried out the door. No, this house stinks so badly I can't even stay here!

.

When Bi Chunliu went out, she specifically looked at the time. It was a little later than she expected, almost three o'clock.

After hesitating for a while between walking to the suburbs and taking the bus, Bi Chunliu finally decided to take the bus. Taking the bus would allow her to spend more time walking around the mountain in the afternoon. If she found something unexpected like last time, that would be even better!

Perhaps because everyone knew there were so many things to eat in the mountains, Bi Chunliu encountered several people. Some looked like village elder sisters and aunties, skilled with their tools, their baskets filled with tons of wild vegetables. Some, like Bi Chunliu, were also very nimble, but it was obvious they weren't as quick as the village elder sisters. Their hands were really quick!

After walking around the mountain, Bi Chunliu and an older sister discovered March Paoer at the same time.

!!

The two sides looked at each other, and Bi Chunliu tried to straighten his body, indicating that he would definitely not give in.

The eldest sister: "... Big sister, there are a lot of March bubbles here. How about we pick them together and split them in half?"

Bi Chunliu nodded: "Okay!" She couldn't pick all the fruits anyway, so it was good to have a helper.

"Big sister, aren't the March bubbles over? Why are they still here?"

"This is the batch that matures late. Before..." The eldest sister took back her unfinished words in time and almost revealed her family's secret base.

"Is that so... Big Sister, how many people are there in your family?" Bi Chunliu knew that the big sister was wary of her, but it didn't matter. She was wary of others too, wasn't she? She was trying to get close to them just to ask if she could buy some food. The food on the family's food certificate wasn't enough!

"Well~don't~"

Bi Chunliu and her elder sister exchanged a glance and suddenly looked up at the same time. No way? There are still outdoor battles?
