"It's free, just take it and eat it." Xu Zhiyi placed the porcelain bottle in front of her.
Su Qiuhe's eyes revealed uneasiness. She couldn't believe that this was a gift from Xu Zhiyi.
"It's too expensive, I can't accept it." Su Qiuhe pinched the corner of her clothes with both hands. She knew that what Xu Zhiyi gave must be a good thing.
Although she had not received much education, she knew that one should not ask for other people's things casually.
What's more, Xu Zhiyi helped her many times.
"Xu Zhiqing, this thing must be valuable. You can keep it. I really don't need it." Su Qiuhe refused, with no intention of getting something for nothing.
"This is not expensive. I made it myself using herbs I collected. Are you worried that what I made is edible?" Xu Zhiyi asked back.
"No, no, no, that's not what I meant." Su Qiuhe quickly denied it, as if she still thought Xu Zhiyi had really misunderstood her.
"Then just accept it. I'd like to ask you for a favor." Xu Zhiyi said.
Su Qiuhe's eyes lit up immediately. "Xu Zhiqing, what kind of help do you need? I will definitely help you if I can."
"Come back next month and I'll take your pulse."
A request that couldn't be simpler.
"Is it that simple?"
Xu Zhiyi nodded.
Of course Su Qiuhe agreed. But when she left, the bottle of Rongyang Pills that Xu Zhiyi had given her was still in her basket.
This is the recipe Xu Zhiyi got from his master, and he wanted to send it back to his elder sister after making it.
My eldest sister is about to give birth, and Xu Zhiyi asked her to take Rongyang Pills after giving birth to help her body recover better.
These days, almost all births are natural births, which causes great damage to women's bodies. Xu Zhiyi had already thought about this.
There are herbs all over the mountains, and I found quite a few.
I just made a little more.
Just as Su Qiuhe came over, Xu Zhiyi gave her a bottle.
Su Qiuhe has never felt kindness from others, but Xu Zhiyi has shown kindness to her again and again and helped her a lot.
Su Qiuhe kept Xu Zhiyi's kindness in her heart and remembered it silently. If she heard someone say something bad about Xu Zhiyi in the future, Su Qiuhe's reaction would be stronger than anyone else's.
Xu Zhiyi didn't know yet that Su Qiuhe had become one of her little fangirls.
After the busy farming season, there is more time for rest.
The village is organizing villagers to go to the mountains to pick chestnuts.
The people chosen were all strong men and women who were good at working in the village.
Some households have fewer people, so there are only one or two people; some have more, so there are five or six people.
Many families do not split up, not because there are too many people working.
Picking chestnuts in the mountains is calculated based on work points, and after picking them, the chestnuts are distributed according to the work points of each household.
Hard-working families naturally get more.
Most people agree with this, and those who disagree are of course a small number of people who are habitually lazy and slack at work and have few work points.
Since Xu Zhiyi discovered the wild chestnut forest, villagers have sent people to pick chestnuts every year.
Chestnuts can be eaten in many ways, and the key is that they give you a strong sense of fullness after eating them, so everyone in the village likes them very much.
Nowadays, as long as you can eat your fill, that’s a good meal.
In order to prevent greedy people from stealing chestnuts in the mountains, there are many tigers and wild beasts in the mountains, and many unknown dangers. If someone dies as a result, the village will not care.
It depends on whether life is more important to them or food is more important to them.
The village chief has been giving orders repeatedly. If anyone still refuses to listen, there's nothing we can do.
The villagers of Xiangyang Village may not be able to eat their fill, but they can still eat half full, so no one is forced to risk their lives to go up the mountain.
It was still the patrol team organized by Uncle Yang Liu, who was responsible for the safety of people going up the mountain along the way.
In a wild chestnut forest, where usually only animals from the mountains came and went, people from the foot of the mountain came now.
I don’t know how many years the chestnut trees have been growing in the mountains, but they are still full of thorn balls as always. Many of them have fallen to the ground, but there are even more hanging on the trees.
The men who had been able to climb trees since childhood showed off their skills and climbed up the trees using their hands and feet like agile monkeys.
People nearby were paying attention to prevent others from standing under the tree and being attacked by the fallen chestnuts.
The man who was picking chestnuts on the tree, and the man next to him who was carrying a big basket on his back, were wearing thick gloves to protect their hands from being pricked.
In fact, the most time-consuming part is taking the chestnuts out of the thorn ball. Be careful not to get your hands pricked, as it will be very painful if you get pricked.
It took three days to knock down all the chestnuts in the forest, pick them up and carry them back.
If it weren't for the dangers in the mountains, I'm afraid everyone, young and old, men, women, and children would have joined the battle.
Xu Zhiyi was not idle. He was picking herbs near the mountain and met a white tiger with hanging eyes.
When a man and a tiger met, they stared at each other. Xu Zhiyi didn't understand, and the tiger didn't understand either.
Perhaps the tiger felt that Xu Zhiyi's aura was harmless and made it want to get closer, so it slowly lay down.
Licking the soles of his feet.
Xu Zhiyi had no intention of fighting it.
Seeing that it kept licking its paws, Xu Zhiyi thought for a moment, then slowly walked over and saw that there seemed to be a wound on the tiger's front paws.
"Tiger, be good! Let me take a look." Xu Zhiyi slowly approached.
If it really attacks, tie it up tightly.
The scent of grass and trees on Xu Zhiyi makes animals feel very close.
The tiger is the king of beasts, so naturally it would not take the two-legged beast in front of it seriously. It is even more worried about the injury on its foot.
Xu Zhiyi walked closer and saw that there was pus on the tiger's paw.
Xu Zhiyi put his hand on the tiger's head and touched it.
