Chapter 33 Picking Mushrooms



He glanced at her and said, "Is there anything you don't understand when you read?"

She shook her head. "Not yet. If there is, I'll ask my eldest brother."

Fu Xiao took out a medical book from the house and sat with him in the sun to read it.

She was so engrossed in what she saw that she didn't notice that Fu Yu was staring at the book she was reading in a subtle way.

"This book...I remember it was left at the Shanghai scrap yard, right?" He said in a strange tone.

Her heart skipped a beat, and she smiled awkwardly, "Brother, I brought them here secretly. These are very precious ancient books, and I...I can't bear to part with them."

Fu Yu was silent for a moment, then chuckled and nodded: "It's okay, but you can't watch it outside, you can only watch it at home."

She raised a few fingers and placed them on her head. "I promise, I'll just look at it at home and won't take it out. Don't worry, brother. I'm very good at hiding things."

"Well, good..."

Seeing him pick up the book and start reading again, Fu Xiao heaved a sigh of relief. He almost forgot that this book was placed in a box right under his nose when it was in Shanghai, and then the box was thrown into the scrap yard. Fortunately, he fooled him...

Fu Yu read for a while and went back to the room to rest.

She moved the drying mushrooms to a place where they could get sunlight for a long time.

I also went back to the house, bolted the door, entered the space, and processed the ginseng I picked today. The picked ginseng must be processed, otherwise if it is left unattended for a long time, its medicinal properties will be lost.

The pills that my third uncle mentioned before have been prepared. I don’t know whether he will come home from the county tomorrow, Saturday. It’s time to send the pills to my second uncle.

I had heard from Fu Yu before that my second uncle's troops were carrying out relatively dangerous missions, and having life-saving medicine was an extra layer of protection.

Thinking of this, he turned on the pharmaceutical machine and made a batch of very effective hemostatic drugs, which he could send to him when the time comes.

She sent two bottles of Ginseng Yangrong Pills and one bottle of life-saving ginseng pills. It was not that she was reluctant to give it away, but this bottle of ginseng pills used a lot of her medicinal materials. The ginseng given by her third uncle had been used up, so she added a lot of her hundred-year-old ginseng.

Of course, it’s best not to use a life-saving item.

If you really encounter any special situation, you can call her over and she can save you no matter how serious the injury is.

Uh...Pah! Pah! Pah!

Children speak without restraint.

Put all the medicines in a small box and give it directly to my third uncle when the time comes.

But she was a little worried about sending such an important thing through the post office, so she would ask him if there was any other way.

Drink a glass of milk and leave the space.

Because she was not very sound in sleep, the quilt on the kang had slowly moved down, so she made the bed again, tore off the sheets and quilt covers, threw them into the washing space, set it to the drying mode, and washed and dried them before taking them out for direct use.

After everything was done, she left the room and went to her aunt's room to watch her make clothes, from measuring the size to cutting the fabric, she watched from beginning to end and listened very carefully.

It seemed that my aunt's work was very easy, but she would always cut crookedly when she picked up the scissors. I don't know why, but until it got dark, she only learned how to do a simple hemming, because the hemming in the early stage was only for fixing and did not require stitches.

"Xiaoxiao, just leave it at that. If you can't learn it, then don't learn it. There are so many people selling clothes out there now, and slowly no one will make clothes anymore," Li Xiufen said with a forced smile.

She scratched her head embarrassedly, "Aunt, I don't think I have the talent for making clothes."

"Don't worry, our Xiaoxiao is very good at other things. She can cook and has good medical skills. Most importantly, our Xiaoxiao is pretty..."

My aunt held her hand and praised her a lot, as if she was afraid of hurting her self-confidence.

In the end, she felt a little embarrassed by the praise, her face slightly reddened, "Aunt, it's time to make dinner..."

Li Xiufen looked up through the window and saw that it was indeed time to cook dinner.

It was getting dark outside.

Dinner was simple, corn porridge, stir-fried vegetables, and fried fish fillets.

She drank a bowl of porridge and ate a few bites of vegetables. She had eaten too much greasy food in the past two days and needed to adjust. Of course, this was her idea. Other people in the family would not think so. In that poor era, it took a long time to have a meat meal. It was only because the Fu family was not poor that they could eat so well. Many families in the village could not see meat for several months.

After dinner, several people sat together and chatted. When the topic came up, Fu Weilun asked, "Tomorrow is Saturday, will my third uncle come home?"

Fu Wei Bo was silent for a moment, calculated the days in his mind, and nodded slowly.
