“My mother learned to cook and make pastries from my aunt. Her skills are improving. Aunt, you’ll definitely be able to make chestnut cakes with my mother.” Xingxing nodded confidently.
They chatted until noon. Zhao Xiu wanted Xingxing and Zhu Lin to stay for lunch, but they declined, saying they wanted to go home to eat.
"I have things to do at home, so I have to go back to eat. Auntie, don't bother, just cook your own portions." Xingxing said goodbye to Zhao Xiu and her two daughters like a little adult, and then took Zhu Lin's hand and went home.
When she got home, she saw Zhu Chumo sitting in the main room drinking tea. Xingxing ran over and asked him, "Fourth Senior Brother, have you finished treating Brother Dafa? Can you cure him? Will he be able to get up and walk again?"
“No one can cure it,” Zhu Chumo said coldly. When sadness welled up in Xingxing’s eyes, he immediately added, “Only I can cure it.”
"So, can it be cured or not?" Xingxing was a little confused, pouting as she looked at him with a accusing expression.
Zhu Lin's cold gaze swept over them.
Under his junior brother's death stare, Zhu Chumo dared not keep him in suspense any longer and had no choice but to tell the truth: "I guess so, but it's a bit tricky. In addition to taking medicine every day, he also needs acupuncture treatment. I've already given him acupuncture in his leg today."
“I know what happened. Aunt Daya’s head was damaged in the accident, and she also needs acupuncture treatment. It will take a long time to heal, so Brother Dafa can definitely be healed too,” Xingxing said with shining eyes.
Zhu Chumo lowered his eyes and said in a few octaves, “However, in addition to acupuncture, we also need one medicine. This medicine is extremely difficult to find. If we can find that herb, Zhou Dafa’s leg can be cured quickly.”
Xingxing thought for a moment and said, "There are many good things in the deep mountains here, but the deep mountains are very dangerous."
Speaking of the deep mountains, Zhu Chumo glanced at Zhu Lin. He had wanted to go into the deep mountains that morning, but his junior brother said that since he was new here, he shouldn't cause trouble and that he could go into the deep mountains later.
There are many precious medicinal herbs in the deep mountains, which Zhu Chumo had not expected before, and he was pleasantly surprised. He couldn't wait to go in and collect all the good herbs.
Seeing Zhu Lin's disapproving look, Zhu Chumo chuckled and explained, "I'm telling the truth, Junior Brother. Don't think I'm just making excuses to go into the deep mountains. Although I'm not a great philanthropist and I'm not willing to save everyone, I will abide by medical ethics once I start helping. I won't lie to people for the sake of herbs."
"That's good. Since there are medicinal herbs worth collecting in the deep mountains, let's go in together sometime," Zhu Lin announced casually.
"I want to go too! There are so many fruit trees in the deep mountains. I want to dig them up and plant them." Xingxing raised her hand high to show her determination.
Speaking of fruit trees, Zhao Guihua thought of the fruit that Zhou Laoda had picked from the deep mountains. Xingxing said to use the fruit pits to plant them. All the fruit pits were kept and they were just waiting to be planted next spring.
"Okay, I'll take you." Zhu Lin smiled slightly at Xingxing.
