Ruru stared at the stars for a while, then suddenly smiled and said, "They're beautiful, sister is beautiful, Ruru wants to eat them."
Xingxing smiled and reached out her chubby little hand to touch her head, saying, "Ruru, are you better now? You not only respond to me, but you also praise me. You're very smart."
Zhao Guihua and Zhao Guizhi sat under the eaves making clothes, watching the two girls get along better and better, and exchanged a gratified glance.
Zhao Guizhi said, "Back when we lived in the Chen family, Ruru was the smartest of all the children. She could recite the Three Character Classic and the Hundred Family Surnames when she was only two years old. Her parents doted on her. Perhaps it was because of her precociousness that she was so frightened when the big change happened."
"Alas, life is unpredictable. Fortunately, she survived in the end. I think Ruru is really smart. Now that she's settled down and no longer suffering from shocks, she's slowly getting better. Speaking of which, she's a strong child, which is why she was able to get over it so quickly." Zhao Guihua felt quite comforted looking at Ruru, who had gained some weight and had a much rosier complexion.
In a few days it will be New Year's Eve. Zhao Guihua and her sister are busy making new clothes for the two little girls. There are no five lucky boys. Chen Shunping is seriously ill and still cannot get out of bed. He has been lying in bed and has spent a lot of money on medicine.
They could have gone up the mountain to collect herbs themselves. Zhou Wufu could identify which herbs were needed just by smelling them, and Xingxing could also tell them directly what herbs to collect.
However, Zhao Guihua didn't want to always rely on Xingxing to solve problems, especially now that her sister and Chen Shunping were at home. Although she trusted her sister, she secretly didn't want her sister and Chen Shunping to know about Xingxing's precognitive abilities.
Although living together would eventually lead to the discovery of Xingxing's differences, they decided to put it off for now. The five brothers, Fu and Zhou, also had a tacit understanding and stopped taking Xingxing around looking for good things.
It started snowing a few days ago. Of course, the snow in the south is very gentle. Even if it falls a lot, it only covers the ground and rooftops with a thin layer. There is no situation where your legs will sink into the snow when you go out.
The damp and cold climate made it difficult for Zhao Guizhi and Chen Shunping, who had just arrived, to adapt. Fortunately, there was a kang (heated brick bed) in the house, which made it much warmer after the kang was heated.
Many plants wither in winter, making it difficult to collect herbs in the mountains. Of course, if they went into the mountains with Xingxing, they would surely have unexpected gains, but they didn't want to do that. They would wait until next spring to go into the mountains, where Zhou Wufu would identify the herbs by his nose and be able to collect the herbs they needed.
The medical treatment for Chen Shunping cost a lot of money, and the money that was originally intended to build two more houses was all spent. Now the family only has two taels of silver left for emergencies.
Zhao Guizhi was clever and learned a lot of skills while she was at the Chen family mansion. She was quite good at needlework and cooking. These days, she and Zhao Guihua went to town to get some handkerchiefs and various needles and threads, and she stayed at home every day embroidering.
