The four girls had made enough noise, so Xiushui had to come up with the idea of accepting a disciple from her younger sister.
"Yes, this is serious business, go and tell your aunt right away."
The third girl stared at her fiercely.
Turning around, Xiushui called the old lady, her sister-in-law, and Old Xu over and briefly told them about what happened this time.
Of course, he didn't dare say that he had taken away those people from the village, but he said that when he woke up, no one was there. Xu Yiding just said that everything was destined and God had mercy on him.
He looked at Xiushui meaningfully, but didn't expose her.
For this reason, everyone in the Wen family breathed a sigh of relief.
"The problem now is that the three girls have nowhere to go, and during the famine years, they dare not travel alone.
Later they asked around and said they wanted to become my apprentices, but I knew very well what my level was.
Therefore, it is impossible to accept a disciple, and if anyone wants to accept one, it should be my aunt."
She said the young lady would accept it, but her eyes were looking at Xu Yiding. Unfortunately, even they would not accept this person. So it was even more impossible for the three girls whose origins were unknown to her to accept it.
Xu Yiding pretended not to understand her look and just sat there calmly.
Wen Ruzhu shook her head like a rattle, "Mom, no, no, I'm even worse than Xiu'er now. You want me to accept a disciple? Haha..."
After saying that, she glared at Xiushui fiercely. "You are the one who brought this trouble upon yourself, so you should handle it yourself."
The old lady kept frowning.
She thought about it. "Xiu, I also feel it's inappropriate to rashly accept them as apprentices.
Let alone anything else, we don't even know what kind of people they are. Even if they seem to be alright on the surface, how can you know what kind of person they are in the end if you don't get in touch with them?
Our family aims to be a medical family. If we rashly accept a few female apprentices like this, we will probably be criticized.
Besides, you two know that your current level is average, so it is really inappropriate to accept an apprentice with such skills."
Xiushui spread her hands.
"I just know that my level is not enough, so I want you to use your seniority to suppress me. If those three people don't go out, they won't say anything. If they are released, firstly, their safety will be in jeopardy, and secondly, the suspected cult leader is also in the dark..."
She didn't say anything, but everyone understood.
"I think we should put aside the issue of taking in apprentices for now. Let them stay and take your seventh uncle and seventh aunt as their godmothers.
You can also take them with you to identify some medicinal herbs.
Let’s go back and see if these three girls have any talent. If not, we can let them do something else.”
People can be taken in, but studying medicine is not something that everyone can do.
Among the younger generation of the Wen family, the only ones who can truly concentrate on studying medicine and have talent are Xiu Ai and Wen Xiumei, the ten-year-old third daughter of the second wife.
There were more than ten children, but only two were born. Others were either interested in growing medicine or settling accounts.
Or how to package this medicinal material to make it look good.
Although it is possible to cultivate interest further, the old lady estimated that at most she could cultivate Changyin and Changtong.
I guess the more you learn, the more biased you will become.
Why did you choose the seventh brother's family?
Of course, the seventh room has no children yet. In fact, the couple are still young, and the old lady is really not in a hurry and never urges them.
But the seventh brother's family was very anxious. Seeing her like this, they simply distracted her and took in a few goddaughters to pay attention to her.
Turning around, the old lady told the seventh brother and his wife about adopting a daughter, and Xiushui would go and talk to the other three.
Both parties had no objection to this arrangement, except for Uncle Seven, a 24-year-old man who was completely confused when he first heard that he was going to be the father of three girls.
"Mom, this, this, I've never been anyone's father, and now I have three grown girls. How can I be qualified as one?"
Zhao Lishui also looked anxious.
“Mom, I have no objection to taking three girls as my daughters, but just like Seventh Brother, how can I be someone’s mother?
"I, I've been an aunt for many years, but being a godmother... is truly my first time in my life."
Seeing how anxious the couple was, the old lady burst out laughing.
"Don't worry, you guys. The water will straighten itself out when it reaches the bow of the boat. Being a parent is something you'll learn over time.
There is a reason why these three girls are under your name.
Let me say one more thing here. If these three girls have decent character, you should treat them sincerely.
If they are not presentable, or are selfish and self-serving, we should be more indifferent to them. Do you understand?"
Wen Subei nodded in agreement smartly.
Zhao Lishui was confused. She felt that since she had already adopted the girl as her goddaughter, why did she still have to inspect her?
However, since her mother-in-law said so and her husband agreed, she naturally nodded and did as she was told.
According to her husband, she is not smart, so she should listen to smart people.
The three girls over there were also happy when they heard that they were going to have a godfather and godmother.
Especially Hongmei, she actually felt numb when she saw those medicinal herbs.
I always can't tell them apart.
She is good at kitchen chores and can make delicious food just by looking at the ingredients.
But she had to identify the herbs clearly before using them as medicine...
The thought that if the wrong medicine was taken, someone might die made her unable to concentrate on her studies.
Only Yanhong was a little disappointed, as she really wanted to study pharmacology.
However, it was understandable that the Wen family had concerns and adopted her as their goddaughter first. Therefore, even if she had a slight regret, it was only a little.
Because they were on the road to escape famine, and today was a good time for the children to come back, the old lady decided to make a delicious meal tonight to tell everyone that their seventh son had adopted three girls.
"Mom, I'm going hunting with my family tonight. If we can kill a wild boar or something, we can have a pig-killing feast tonight."
The old lady actually had an idea in mind. When Li mentioned this, she looked at Xiushui.
The latter immediately understood what Nai meant and quickly jumped up and raised his hand.
"Fifth Aunt, I want to go too. With me here, I'll be lucky and might be able to catch a lot of prey."
If you can't hit her, it's okay to keep the ones in her space.
There are now fifteen wild boars.
If we hadn't slaughtered some of them earlier and sold them to the system, there would have been more than twenty of them.
However, when she was communicating with space through her consciousness, who knew Mengmeng said.
"Any animals raised in the space that have been raised for more than three months cannot be sold to the host world.
The host can use the points earned to buy various animals in the mall. Any animal that can be bought in the host's modern society can also be bought in the mall."
Xiushui glared, which meant that the pigs she raised could only be sold to the system.
If she wants to eat it, she can only buy it from the mall.
"So, is this the Clenbuterol-fueled pigs raised by that bastard Goldman Sachs? Or is it some high-tech garbage that slowly makes you sick after eating it? I don't want to eat pigs raised by that animal."
