When Fang Hui saw her, she ran over and said, "Grandma, you're back?" As she spoke, she took the basket from her hand.
Madam Fang glared at her unhappily, "If I hadn't come back, I wouldn't have known that you were going to give our family heirloom to an outsider."
The corner of his eye swept across Shen Yizhi.
Although she was somewhat shocked by her appearance, Mrs. Fang could not be kind to her when she thought that this woman was trying to take the heirloom away from her granddaughter while she was away.
Fang Hui stamped her feet. "Grandma, what are you talking about? Sister Shen is not a bad person. She just cured my mother's illness."
Madam Fang looked suspicious, "Really?"
"Why would I lie to you? Just go inside and take a look and you'll know for yourself."
When Old Madam Fang passed by, Shen Yizhi gave him a polite smile.
After a while, Old Madam Fang came out of her daughter-in-law's room, and her expression looked much better when she faced Shen Yizi again.
No one knew their daughter-in-law's condition better than them, the family members who lived with her day and night. In the past, Qin could only lie in bed listlessly and never stopped coughing. But when she went in just now, she saw Qin sleeping with a rosy face.
Just from her appearance, you can tell that she is getting better.
She even leaned closer and touched her hand, which was warm, not at all cold as before.
It can be said that this Miss Shen is really a capable person.
But even so, the heirloom cannot be given away! Old Madam Fang sat down at the table, touched the rusty kitchen knife on the table, and sighed, "Miss Shen, to be honest, this kitchen knife has been passed down from generation to generation in our Fang family. Our Fang family has been a cook for generations, and the only thing passed down from generation to generation is this kitchen knife, in addition to a Fang family recipe book.
"Huihui's father was not a good person. He was led astray by others and lost all the family property. He just walked away, leaving the orphan and widowed mother poorly. Originally, the family had some assets, but Huihui's mother was in poor health and had to take medicine for many years. The family could hardly make ends meet. However, even in the most difficult times, I was reluctant to sell this kitchen knife. It is the root of our Fang family!"
Old Madam Fang held the kitchen knife in her arms emotionally, with turbid tears oozing from the corners of her eyes.
Fang Hui felt sad when she heard this and patted her on the back: "Grandma, that's all in the past. Our family is slowly getting back on its feet now."
Madam Fang patted her granddaughter's hand and said with relief: "It's all thanks to Huihui. She is very sensible at such a young age and practices cooking skills every day. If it weren't for her, this family might have collapsed."
"Sister, I'm back! Uncle Scar gave me an extra piece of pork liver."
Fang Cheng ran in, but found the atmosphere at home a little heavy.
Fang Hui wiped her eyes and took the meat and vegetables from him, "Come and help me light the fire."
The kitchen is in one corner of the main room, and in another corner a simple bed is made of benches.
Usually Fang Hui and Fang Cheng take turns sleeping here so that they can take care of Qin next door.
Shen Yizhi was indeed somewhat moved after hearing what Old Madam Fang said, but it was impossible for her to give up the artifact in front of her.
She was silent for a moment.
Fang Hui was used to cooking, so she quickly prepared three dishes and a soup, which was much more sumptuous than usual.
She was just about to leave a separate portion of the meal out when Qin came out of the room by herself.
She was still a little weak from lying down for so long that she needed to hold on to the wall to walk, but all the signs of illness were gone, and she felt indescribably refreshed, with some color on her face.
"Hey, why did you get out of bed by yourself?" Old Madam Fang walked over and supported her.
Qin smiled, "Mom, I feel like I'm better now. I don't cough anymore, but I feel a little weak."
"It's good, come and sit down."
Old Madam Fang helped her sit down at the table.
Looking at Shen Yizhi opposite her, Qin said in a gentle and soft voice: "Miss Shen, thank you for curing my illness."
He stood up and bowed to Shen Yizhizi.
Shen Yizhi helped her up and checked her pulse. "Aunt, there's no need to be so polite."
He handed over a bottle of Yang Yuan Dan, "This is for strengthening your body. Take one pill every day before going to bed. When you finish this bottle of medicine, your body will be no different from that of an ordinary person."
After finishing the meal, Qin, who had just recovered from a serious illness, felt a little tired, so Fang Hui helped her into the room to rest.
Fang Cheng quickly collected the dishes and took them to the stove to wash.
Shen Yizi didn't bother him any more and said goodbye and left.
After she left, Old Madam Fang called Fang Cheng to ask a doctor to check on Qin.
She was a little unsure about Shen Yizi's diagnosis, after all, she looked too young.
The doctor who was invited was an old acquaintance of the Fang family and was very familiar with Qin's condition. He originally thought that Qin might not make it this time and sighed twice in his heart.
But when he saw Qin, he was immediately shocked. How could this patient be terminally ill? She was clearly doing very well! Her face was ruddy, her breathing was steady, and the sickness that enveloped her body was swept away!
It's obviously much better.
When the doctor felt the pulse, he was so shocked that his hand slipped. The pulse was neither weak nor floating, but very stable and healthy! After listening to Fang Hui's explanation, the doctor slapped his thigh and said, "This Miss Shen must be an otherworldly expert!"
He wanted to discuss medicine with her, but heard that she had passed away. He was very disappointed and left with a sigh, carrying his medicine box.
As he walked out the door, he turned back and reminded Fang Hui: "If Miss Shen appears again, remember to notify me."
Fang Hui nodded in agreement.
But I knew in my heart that Sister Shen probably wouldn't come again.
Unexpectedly, Shen Yizhi came again the next day.
This time, she came prepared.
In the yard, Old Madam Fang was peeling soapberries, while brother and sister Fang Hui and Fang Cheng went out to set up a stall.
Qin wanted to help, but was stopped by Old Madam Fang. "You just got well, why bother? It will cost a lot of money to get well."
Qin knew that her mother-in-law had a sharp tongue but a soft heart, so she didn't take it to heart. She smiled gently and sat aside to do her embroidery.
She felt that she was almost well. She took a Yang Yuan Dan given by Miss Shen last night, and her body felt more relaxed than ever before.
However, if the embroidery work is done well, it can still be sold for money, so I won't argue with my mother-in-law.
The soapberry was bought by Mrs. Fang from someone else. The soapberry contains soapberry seeds, which are commonly known as snow lotus seeds and soapberry kernels. They are the fruit of the soapberry. They have the effects of nourishing the heart, dredge meridians, clearing the liver and improving eyesight.
Soapberry rice is not only a medicinal ingredient, but also a very nutritious food ingredient.
After the dried sapodilla rice is boiled with water, it will become a translucent gelatinous substance, white and clear, like a flat lotus seed, fragrant and glutinous, and is a natural nourishing food. Its nutritional value is no worse than that of bird's nest.
