This meal was much more sumptuous than the previous ones, and there was even mutton, which Qian Xiuzhu asked Jiang Sanlang and Jiang Wei to buy at the market in the morning.
The mute girl discovered that the people here didn't seem to know how to cook by frying. The most commonly used methods were stewing, steaming, and baking.
This mutton is also stewed.
The original owner's spleen and stomach were too weak, so she needed a light diet and slow recuperation. She was also in a hurry to accumulate points, so she was not picky in the first two days and ate whatever was available.
Qian Xiuzhu picked up several pieces for her. She tasted it and didn't know how Zheng Li Niang prepared it, but the mutton had a strong smell but it was not obvious. Therefore, she ate a little more than usual.
After dinner, the adults started to get busy again. The mute girl became the most idle person in the family. She was told to have a good rest no matter where she went.
Qian Xiuzhu was worried about storing food, so she decided to stockpile points. When the time came to escape famine, points would be more useful than coins. The only thing she needed to worry about was how to display the things she bought in the mall.
The thought of this made her head go bald.
I have to think carefully during this period of time. It is too hard to live a hard life when I have to hide everything I have.
So Zheng Li'niang, who was busy in the yard, watched the mute girl mumbling to herself as she went up the mountain again.
She looked at him several times while feeding the chickens, "This girl can't even rest..."
"Sister-in-law, where's Mute Sister?" Jiang Wei ran out of the house, looking around and asked, "Did she go up the mountain again? I want to go with her too!"
Zheng Li Niang asked in surprise, "Sister Wei, aren't you the one who's most reluctant to go up the mountain?"
Jiang Wei covered her mouth with her hands like a thief and whispered, "Sister-in-law, I suspect there's an immortal on the mountain!"
Zheng Li Niang was stunned and said with a smile: "What are you talking about, Hu Qin?"
"Don't disbelieve me, sister-in-law!" Jiang Wei said seriously, "Mute sister has been mute since she was a child. How come she can speak suddenly? It must be the immortal grandfather who cured her!"
After saying that, she ran out without caring what her sister-in-law thought.
She had heard from her second brother that there was a book that said: In ancient times there was a fairy mountain, and on the mountain lived a white-bearded fairy, and those who were destined could see him.
Even if she can't see the immortal grandfather, she can at least share in the blessing of the mute sister, right?
hey-hey.
Zheng Li'niang looked at her receding figure thoughtfully, unable to recover for a long time.
That night, she told this story to Jiang Dalang and asked, "Have you seen a doctor for your muteness? What did the doctor say?"
"A gentleman doesn't talk about strange things," Jiang Dalang said. "Go to bed! You have to get up early tomorrow."
Zheng Li Niang was dissatisfied and twisted her husband's arm. She only let go after hearing his hiss.
"My mother told me that my mute sister has been unable to speak since she was young. I've never heard of anyone who has been mute since childhood being able to speak on their own!" The more she thought about it, the more bizarre it became. Finally, she said, "It must be the blessing of the immortals that allowed my mute sister to speak. What do you think? I'll go to the mountain to pray tomorrow..."
She turned her head to look at Jiang Dalang, but saw that the man had closed his eyes and his chest was rising and falling, obviously he was asleep.
After patting Jiang Dalang in annoyance, Zheng Li Niang also went to sleep.
The mute girl she was talking about was pestered by Jiang Wei all day today. Whether they went up the mountain to pick mushrooms, collect firewood or make a fire, the two of them were like conjoined twins, annoyed her to death.
But there was also a good thing. After that day, her speech became much clearer. Jiang Wei was very proud of this for a while.
For the sake of this tiny benefit, the mute girl didn't want to argue with her.
Before going to sleep at night, she immersed her consciousness into the space and used a tool man to simulate the disease to conduct experiments and learn how to take the pulse. In the end, she didn't even know when she fell asleep.
About half a month passed like this, and everyone in Shili Village knew that the mute girl of the Jiang family could suddenly speak!
As Jiang Wei devotedly and continuously spread superstitious ideas, many people believed that the mute girl learned to speak because she was enlightened by an immortal.
After Zheng Li Niang, the custom of going to the back mountain to burn paper and worship the immortals gradually became popular. What's more, when people saw the mute girl, they would touch her head and say "I want to share her good luck."
It’s not that she doesn’t want to be touched. They are just honest farmers, so there’s nothing wrong with touching their heads. It’s just that... she gets greasy easily.
The mute girl just watched without clarifying.
She was so busy every day that she wished she could dive into the mountains and the laboratory.
She had searched almost every corner of the back mountain, and there were no new herbs for her to pick, so she quietly went to the junction of the hills and the deep mountains. Not only did she pick yellow pine mushrooms, chicken mushrooms and herbs, she also hunted two wild rabbits with a slingshot.
She has picked a lot of mushrooms these days. After collecting each one, she stored the rest in the space, which can keep them fresh. It is more cost-effective to exchange them for silver than to exchange them for points.
The mute girl looked at her current points happily, which were over one million.
In the meantime, I also spent 380,000 points to buy a bead called "Jiaozhu" in the Star Mall. This "Jiaozhu" is not made from the tears shed by the mermaids in the legend, but is named after it because of its wide range of functions - it can repel insects, reduce heat, and provide lighting, and it also has a certain function of blocking ultraviolet rays.
Holding the rabbit in her hand, she walked down the mountain.
【Host······】
"What's wrong?" Futuan suddenly spoke, and the mute girl looked around alertly.
"Is that the mute girl? Why are you in the mountains again?" An old farmer with a hunched back saw the mute girl from afar and shouted loudly with a smile in his eyes.
This shout interrupted the conversation between Yi Ren and Yi Tong.
"Hey, I hunted a silly rabbit!" The mute girl raised the rabbit in her hand that was not yet dead. "Master, go and have a look. Maybe you can hunt one too!"
Her voice is as clear and sweet as the song of an oriole. She always likes to say hello to people she knows, which surprises many people.
