C2 Go up the Mountain and Look for Herbs

Every day, when her family woke up, they would first check on themselves, and today was no exception. Seeing that the two of them were still looking at her from beside the bed, she immediately got up and said, "Mom, Qingyun, I'm done!"

"Sister?" Xia Qingyun could clearly feel that the silly feeling on her sister's body had disappeared. "You, you're normal?"

Seeing that he still had a puzzled look on his face, Xia Yu lowered her head and said, "Silly brother, I'm really fine now."

Uh uh uh uh, Xia's mother waved happily when she saw this. Her steps quickened as she walked out the door and hurried to the kitchen to cook. Xia Qingyun was also very excited and followed Li Yao to help.

After the two of them left, Xia Yu went back into the Medicine King Space in her dream to check it out. Good heavens, it was exactly the same as in her dream. There were all kinds of precious medicinal herbs. Xia Yu picked a few that she knew. She thought that when her father came back, she would take them to the market and sell them for a good price.

When Xia Changping returned, Xia Qingyun told his father about his sister's recovery today. His face was still filled with disbelief.

It was not that he did not want his daughter to come back, but he had made up his mind, all these years ago, that he would keep her, no matter what would become of her.

After sitting down and drinking some water, Xia Changping said another thing, "Elder Lin and his family are coming to our house for dinner tomorrow."

Old Lin was the family of the village chief, Lin Ning. Xia Yu knew that the original owner and the son of the Lin family, Lin Chengcan, had been married since they were young. That Lin Chengcan was known in the village for being a good student. His parents wanted him to go to the capital to take the exam and get a good score.

Xia Yu had just recovered today and no one else knew about it. If that was the case, then the Lin family would definitely look down on the original owner of the body. Thinking of this, Xia Yu understood what the expression on his face meant when he said those words.

"Dad, since the Lin family is coming tomorrow, we have to treat them well."

When Xia Changping heard his daughter say this, he couldn't help but feel gratified. Just as he was thinking, "Yes, that's what I meant as well. Besides, our Qingyun has reached a suitable age, and she still can't read. I want Lin Chengcan to teach Qingyun how to read."

Speaking up to this point, Xia Yu mentioned that she had picked some herbs that could be exchanged at the market for some money. Tomorrow, she would buy some good meat and vegetables to treat the Lin family well. Seeing how capable his daughter was, Xia Changping happily agreed.

That night, the Xia family happily ate dinner and went to bed early.

Early the next morning, Xia Changping woke Xia Yu and Xia Qingyun up. Xia Yu did not hesitate and found a gunny sack. She put in the herbs she had picked the day before and followed Xia Changping out.

Aunt Zhou, who was next door, happened to see this scene.

Aunt Zhou was a long-tongued woman. Seeing that the life of the Xia family was worse than her own, she would find a way to suppress them every two or three days. Seeing the three of them go out, the usually dull Xia Yu looked no different from an ordinary person today, so she rushed to talk to Xia Changping's sister, Xia Changlian.

Xia Changlian had been kicked out of her husband's house because she had done something wrong. The ancient women's skin was as thick as modern women's, and Xia Changlian did not care about her bad reputation as she went to find her brother.

On the day she returned, the villagers caught hold of her and ridiculed her, but not only did she not tuck her tail between her legs, she even swaggered around the city with her daughter. This made Xia Changping so angry that he locked her up at home for a few days.

Xia Changlian was still holding a grudge against Xia Changping, and as they listened to Aunt Zhou's gossip, the two of them started talking at the same time.

On this side, Xia Changping's heart was beating fast, and his feet were also moving fast. He had already brought the siblings to the town.

Today was the day of the market. There were a lot of people in the town, and it was difficult for them to walk shoulder to shoulder.

When they arrived at the medicine store, Xia Yu did not bother to hide anything. She showed the medicinal ingredients in her hand to the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper also knew his stuff and immediately ordered all the medicinal ingredients.

She decided to discuss with the shopkeeper and set a price. They would hand over the money and hand over the goods.

After receiving the silver, Xia Yu handed it over to Xia Changping. "Dad, take good care of the silver. Let's buy some things and go back."

Since Xia Changping had said that he would entertain the Lin family tomorrow, he definitely couldn't be underestimated.

She had to have what she needed to eat and drink. In front of the Lin family, Xia Yu was not afraid of showing off her wealth.

Xia Changping probably thought the same thing. "Then let's go and take a look. When I was arguing with that woman surnamed Zhou the other day, I suddenly remembered something. Our family is rich now. We can't just sit around and wait for death. Chickens, ducks, pigs, we can actually raise them at home. "

Xia Yu thought about it. Their family did not have any leftovers. If they wanted to raise pigs, it would be a little troublesome.

However, they could still raise chickens and ducks. When the eggs were laid, they could be used to nourish their bodies and sell them to the villagers.

The most important thing was that Xia Yu was worried about Shen Yao's health. She was thin and weak, so she was afraid that she would overwork herself.

"You can raise chickens and ducks, but you can forget about raising pigs. No one in our village raised pigs. If we go back and raise the pigs we bought, won't the entire village be staring at us? "

When we kill the pigs during the Lunar New Year, everybody will want to get some benefits from us. If you give us some, I will give you nothing!

Xia Changping and Shen Yao were good people, so it was impossible for them to favor one over the other. It was definitely a loss.

Using Xia Yu's words, Xia Changping thought for a while and felt that it made a lot of sense. "Then I'll listen to you. I'll buy two chicks and two ducklings."

"Two won't be enough. Has our family ever raised them before? If they die prematurely, we'll have to buy them from the town. We have earned money today anyway. Let's buy two more."

After Xia Changping heard this, he sighed and revealed a bitter smile on his face. "In the end, my daughter has grown up and will always think for the family. You are more considerate than me."

"Father, what are you saying? Shouldn't I be thinking for the family?"

Xia Changping was really sentimental. Although he did not shed any tears, Xia Yu could see that his eyes were red. "I never dreamed that my daughter would be so sensible one day. At that time, I wanted to raise you for the rest of your life."

Only then did Xia Yu feel lucky to have met such parents in this era.

"Alright, Dad, why are you saying this on the street? If others hear this, they will laugh at you."

Only then did a smile appear on Xia Changping's face. He nodded his head and sorted out his emotions: "Yes, now that our family has a way to make money, our future days will definitely be better and better!"

They would put everything they bought in a gunny sack and bring back whatever they brought with them.

Even if the villagers had any doubts, they would not put it on the table.

The family of three carried a lot of things back home. When they arrived home, Xia Yu went to place the chicken and duck in front of Shen Yao.

"Mom, take a look at this."

Shen Yao was still in the kitchen. When she saw Xia Qingyun put the chickens on the stove, she was so scared that she quickly hugged them in her arms. She looked like she was afraid of hurting these little animals.

When Xia Yu saw this, her eyes narrowed into a smile. "Qing Yun, Mom is afraid that you will hurt the chicks. They are precious."

Xia Qingyun laughed out loud, "Mom, don't worry. He can still handle this kind of heat."

Shen Yao didn't care about him. She put the little chick and duckie in the pigsty.

In any case, Xia Yu did not see them, but she heard from Xia Changping that their family used to have cows as well. Later on, when they were let out to graze, no one knew where they went.
