The matter of buying a house has been made clear to the manager, and they will know it sooner or later, so it is better to admit it openly. There was no one in the store, so Jiang Shushu took out half a pound of White Rabbit milk candy from her bag and gave six pieces to each person.
"I have solved the housing problem. I'll treat you to some candy to share in my good news..." After spending two days together, Jiang Shushu had a certain understanding of his colleagues' personalities. They were all very good. It was natural for him to feel a little envious and jealous, but he would not do anything immoral.
Qian Xiaoni looked at Jiang Shushu with envy, "Shushu, your family is so good to you! They bought a house as soon as they asked." She was so envious that her saliva was about to flow from the corners of her eyes. It was only after she started working and earning money that her own mother partitioned off a 4-square-meter room for her. It's really frustrating to compare yourself with others.
Others also took the candies and congratulated him.
Jiang Shushu happily ate the milk candy with them. It had a strong milky flavor and was extremely delicious. The 21st century White Rabbit milk candy was completely different from it.
There is still half a pound left in the small space. I will keep it for myself to eat slowly. As an old man, I should eat less sugar, which is bad for my teeth. I am still young, so I am not afraid to eat more.
On the other hand, Zhou Hui was unwilling to go to the countryside like this, and she cried, made a fuss and went on a hunger strike in front of Old Lady Zhou.
"Mom, please go and ask my second brother to give me his job back. Tell him I didn't take it for nothing. Let's buy it. I'll pay you back 15 yuan a month from now on until it's paid off..."
At first, Mrs. Zhou didn't agree, because she knew that in Zhou Yi's heart, she was just an ordinary relative. In addition, the incident was so embarrassing that it had offended He Fangfang. But Zhou Hui kept making trouble until the evening, so Mrs. Zhou had no choice but to go to Zhou Yi in the middle of the night. As soon as she opened her mouth, Zhou Yi rejected her, saying that as a cousin, he had no obligation to find a job for his cousin. No matter how much Mrs. Zhou begged, Zhou Yi kept saying that his uncle's family affairs had nothing to do with him.
When Zhou Hui heard the old lady Zhou say that Zhou Yi refused to help, she was so angry that she burst into tears and ran out of the house crying. At the same time, she hated everyone in the Zhou family, including Jiang Shushu.
Jiang Shushu returned home carrying a chicken in his left hand and malted milk and two kilograms of rice in his right hand.
Jiang He saw the goodies in Jiang Shushu's hand and was both worried and happy. "Are these all bought for your uncle? Do you have enough tickets?"
"That's enough. Last time I exchanged it for ten kilograms of meat coupons, and I even asked my classmates and relatives to keep a duck for me."
He didn't ask anyone to keep the duck, but he did ask someone to save two pork shanks for the next day to make soup. There was no other way. He only had two chickens. Jiang Shushu had considered splitting the chickens into two soups, but a chicken weighed just over two pounds. If he split it into two meals, three people would probably just taste it. The three elderly people usually didn't eat well and didn't have enough to eat, looking malnourished. Jiang Shushu also wanted to give them some nutrition, so he simply took this opportunity to stew the whole chicken together.
"Almost. I bought the malted milk and rice for Uncle San. I'll keep the chicken to make medicinal soup for Uncle San and you guys."
"Dad, wash and chop the chicken. I'll make the medicinal soup. I got some medicine from an old Chinese doctor. It's specially for treating old people's illnesses."
"Use medicine to make soup? The doctor has never seen your uncle. Can the medicine he prescribed be used for the right symptoms? You can't take medicine randomly." My third brother is sick now, so how can he take medicine randomly?
"Dad, that medicine is specifically used to nourish the body. It's a warming tonic. I asked an old Chinese doctor, and he's OK with it. My classmate's grandfather was sick, similar to my uncle, and he got better after three days of taking the medicine. Now he's full of energy, eats everything he wants, and is in great health."
"real?"
"Of course it's true. When the time comes, you and my mom will drink it too. I guarantee that the three of you will be full of energy." Jiang Shushu said with full confidence.
Jiang He was moved when he heard this, "Okay then, I'll go chop the chicken."
Jiang Shushu returned to the room, took out the purchased herbs, and took out wolfberries from the material space. Then he grabbed a little of each herb, put them in gauze and tied it up to use for making soup later. Then he grabbed two more herbs of equal weight and wrapped them in paper.
When Jiang Shushu arrived in the kitchen, Jiang He had just finished chopping the chicken. "Dad, I'll cook it. Put the herbs in the right order. You and Mom must be tired from work. Go sit in the yard and rest. I'll call you when it's ready."
"Okay." When Jiang He heard that it was such an important matter, he immediately agreed and even closed the door when he left.
Jiang Shushu was delighted to see Jiang He's skillful approach. He first rinsed the chicken, then fried it in a little oil, then poured in boiling water. The resulting chicken broth was a milky white. He then added the herbs and increased the heat to a simmer. Once the broth boiled, he added a few red dates and goji berries. After 15 minutes, the aroma of the herbs and broth blended. After an hour, the aroma of the herbs overwhelmed the broth.
Jiang He and his wife sat in the yard, smelling the increasingly strong smell of medicine. They glanced towards the kitchen from time to time, but for fear of disturbing Jiang Shushu, they never went in.
Jiang He and his wife were whispering in the yard.
"The smell of medicine is getting stronger. Do you think this medicine is really effective?" Jiang He was still a little nervous.
"It will definitely work. This is both chicken and medicine, it must be very nourishing. When the time comes, Third Brother will drink it and he will definitely get better. You have to trust me."
…
Jiang Shushu used a bowl to make three bowls of soup, and found that the soup was light yellow.
I fried the chicken and added boiling water just to make it milky white, but it ended up being a waste of effort.
Jiang Shushu dropped a drop of Nine Heavens Mysterious Deer Milk into each bowl, and the soup instantly turned milky white. Jiang Shushu took a small spoon and scooped a little bit from the bowl, tasted it, and it had a strong medicinal smell, and no milky aroma could be smelled anymore.
Jiang Shushu glanced at the pale yellow soup in the pot. One was pale yellow, the other was milky white. What should he say? Should he pour out the remaining soup? Or drink it all himself?
Suddenly, Jiang Shushu's eyes lit up, and he immediately thought of the White Rabbit milk candy in the small space. If he added some milk candy into the chicken soup, wouldn't the chicken soup change color?
Jiang Shushu took out 10 White Rabbit milk candies from the small space, tore open the packaging, put the 10 milk candies into a bowl, then poured the chicken soup from the pot into the bowl and stirred it clockwise. After 4 minutes, the chicken soup in the bowl turned into a thick milky white. Jiang Shushu tasted a little more and found that except for being a little sweeter, the taste was almost the same. Jiang Shushu slowly poured the milk candy chicken soup in the bowl back into the pot until the chicken soup in the pot turned into the same color as the chicken soup in the bowl.
