Chapter 192, Fang Kai gets engaged
"Tung oil? What kind of oil is that?" Mei Xue really didn't know what this thing was.
But the smell is so strong, I don’t know if it is poisonous.
"Tung oil is the oil squeezed from tung nuts. It is used to protect against snakes, insects, rats and ants. If a wooden house like this is not painted with tung oil, it will be destroyed by termites."
"So good?" Is this thing so good?
"Of course, this thing can also be used to treat burns, and it can also be used to rub the belly of children with diarrhea."
Grandma He smiled and told the effects she knew about.
Mei Xue thought of her medical book. She would go back and look for it in the evening. If this thing was really that good, she would keep some more at home.
"Do we have these on the mountain?" Mei Xue asked.
"Of course we have tung oil and tea oil. Grandma has prepared that for you. It will be the best for you to use during the confinement period."
During the confinement period, you have to eat light food, but this is not the case when eating tea oil. The older generation compares tea oil to gold.
One ounce of tea oil is worth one ounce of gold. You can imagine how valuable it is.
However, these things are what the people in the mountains have the most, they are just a little more difficult to process.
Her family doesn't have any tea trees, only wild tea trees with low oil production, not even two ounces of oil in a year.
The oil that Xiaoxue used for her confinement was bought by her and her group from the mountain, a total of only ten kilograms.
That's still the amount others earn in a year.
"What is tea oil used for?" Mei Xue felt that she really didn't know these mountains well.
While Grandma He was painting the wooden walls of her house, she explained to Xiaoxue the functions of these two things.
It was not until He Anze came back that Grandma He painted one wall.
It’s not that Mei Xue didn’t want to help, but Grandma He didn’t let her, saying that the smell was strong and she was afraid that the morning sickness that had finally stopped her from nausea would be irritated again.
When you are farther away and the wind blows, the smell becomes lighter and the fragrance of tung oil comes out.
It won’t be too stimulating.
"Grandma, please let me do it. I can still stay at home for many days. Let me do these chores." Today He Anze went to the fields to pull weeds for the whole day. There was no other way. Every household was busy working in the fields, so he really couldn't hire anyone.
"Okay, you come on. That place is too high and grandma can't reach it." Grandma He was not sentimental and directly gave the piece of cloth to He Anze.
But she remembered one thing.
"By the way, do you know about Jiaojiao and Fang Kai?"
He Anze shook his head. "I'm not sure, but I'm afraid these two are going to get engaged."
I don’t know the details, but I do know some news.
"Oh, no wonder your Jinghua grandma sent me candy today, it turns out it really worked." Grandma He smiled.
"Just keep your back. Fang Kai is a very nice person." He Anze said with a smile.
Mei Xue was speechless. There were really few people in the village whom she could talk to, but He Jiaojiao was one of them.
Apart from Li Shuangshuang, she is the only one there on weekdays.
"I didn't hear Jiaojiao talk about her engagement the last time she came?" Mei Xue was a little confused.
"Maybe in these few days, then I will go with Fang Kai." He Anze replied as he took action.
"Is that so? That's fine. You've been back for long enough. It's time to go to the store and take a look." Grandma He sat there, brushing the dust off her body.
"But before you leave, take Xiaoxue to the hospital for a check-up first." Grandma He warned worriedly.
"I know, grandma. I'll remember this. The day after tomorrow, I'll take Xiaoxue to town early the next morning."
Arrange all the household matters in an organized manner.
But no matter what He Anze said, Mei Xue just didn't want to go to the county town, and he was very unhappy about this.
One thing that must be mentioned is that An Wen and others all raise chickens, ducks and pigs at home.
There is also medicinal wine. After Mei Xue had the help of medical books, she added two more prescriptions, both of which are used to nourish the body.
Even if you drink too much, it’s not a big deal. At most you’ll just get a sore throat for a few days.
The first time, she didn’t brew much, just four kinds in total, and she brewed about twenty kilograms of each kind.
Medicinal wine is different from plum wine and takes longer to heal. I'm afraid it will take until September to heal.
Everyone's life trajectory is thriving.
On July 22nd, Fang Kai came to Hejia Village for his engagement ceremony, and the village suddenly became lively.
Because Grandma He was half a matchmaker, Grandma Jinghua took the person away early in the morning.
Mei Xue couldn't get up, and He Anze was worried about his wife being home alone, so he didn't go downstairs.
It just so happened that An Liang and his friends were all on holiday at home, so they all went downstairs early to join in the fun. The sounds of firecrackers, voices, and congratulations continued.
When Mei Xue got up, she could clearly feel the bustling crowd by the stream.
"Fang Kai is here?" Mei Xue's belly is getting bigger and bigger, so she no longer lives upstairs and has been living downstairs.
There's no way, grandma is worried about her.
And Xiaoyu, after Gu Gongan left, he began to treat this place as his home.
They don't call them uncle or aunt, but just godfather or godmother, and call Grandma He "Madam", which makes Grandma He very happy.
After more than half a month of getting along, Xiaoyu's temperament has gradually relaxed, and he accompanies Xiaobai to the mountains every day.
Since he was his godson, He Anze also let him start practicing martial arts.
When Grandma He found out, she glared at He Anze for several days.
"Where is Xiaoyu? Did he go downstairs with An Liang and the others?" Mei Xue looked inside and outside the house, and when she didn't see Xiaoyu, she asked.
"Need I say more?" He Anze said calmly, "An Liang is such a grown man, but he lives like a child every day."
Xiaoyu is only six years old, and An Liang can play with Xiaoyu for a whole day.
The last time Boss Qian came to take away the vegetables, the land needed to be turned over, so these two men turned the land on the mountain for a whole day. Xiaoyu also helped An Liang dig earthworms for a whole day.
But Grandma He was so heartbroken that she beat An Liang for it.
"You are calling this envy. It would be so nice to live like a child." Not to mention, Mei Xue was also quite envious of him.
"What's good about that? You get beaten every day, and you're really not afraid of it." He Anze poured some warm water for Mei Xue and asked her to wash her face, as she had to go downstairs to have lunch soon.
"That was grandma. If it was someone else, I'd bet An Liang would fight with them to the death." Mei Xue rolled her eyes at him.
"Okay, wash your face quickly and eat something. I'll help you go downstairs and take a walk. We're going to Grandma Jinghua's house for lunch at noon. Fang Kai's parents are here today, so we have to go over and say hello."
After being friends for so many years, he still has a very good relationship with Fang's father and mother.
"good."
After Mei Xue finished eating, the two of them went straight down the mountain.
I have to say, once there is a happy event in the village, it is really lively.
"Oh, Xiaoxue's belly is so big. Are these two children well-behaved?" As soon as I came down, I met several aunts.
As soon as he saw the two of them, he immediately smiled and asked.
Mei Xue smiled back, and said politely, "Very well behaved."
