Chapter 5
"Uncle Fugui, are you back so early?" Third Sister-in-law asked in surprise.

Uncle Fugui laughed and said, "Brother Su is here, and the prey will be sold out soon. That's why we can come back earlier."

"Brother Su is really amazing, he knows a lot. We used to sell prey in the market, but Brother Su took us to the biggest restaurant in the town and sold all the prey to the restaurant. Not only did the money not lose much, but it also saved a lot of money. Time, the owner of the restaurant has made an appointment with us, and the prey we catch will be sent directly to the restaurant, and the restaurant will charge as much as it has." Hu Zi hurriedly said, his words were full of admiration for Su Han.Ah Qi kept nodding to the side, she admired Su Han no less than Huzi in her eyes.

Su Han smiled slightly, without speaking, took out three books from his arms and handed them to Luo Cheng.

"What?" Luo Cheng took it in doubt, and looked down. "Compendium of Materia Medica", "A Brief Introduction to Medicine", and "Summary of Meridians" are all introductory books of Chinese medicine.

"Where did these come from?" Luo Cheng asked excitedly and moved.

"Mr. Private School in the town is a scholar, and he has a lot of books in his home. I bought these three books from him."

The Luo and Song Kingdoms emphasized martial arts and did not despise literature, and literati had a high social status. Therefore, many ordinary people liked to collect books to show their culture and taste, and would not easily sell their collections to others.Su Han must have paid a high price to get these three medical books.

"Thank you." Luo Cheng said gratefully.She didn't know that in Qiangan Continent, medical skills were passed on from master to apprentice directly, orally, and there were very few medical books.Therefore, the value of medical books is very precious. No matter how many books a scholar in a small town has, it is impossible for him to collect medical books.

Su Han nodded lightly, frowning slightly, the news spread, I don't know how the owner will react?Seeing the smiling Luo Cheng, Su Han tuned in, a little afraid to face that bright smile.

"Wow, what a rich dish!" Xiaoqi drooled when he saw the delicious food on the table.

"No prospect. Look at your greedy face." Huzi said contemptuously.

Xiaoqi gave Huzi a blank look, and said with a "cut", "Do you have the face to criticize me? Don't think I didn't see it, just now you secretly wiped the drool from the corner of your mouth."

"I didn't!" Hu Zi narrowed his eyes and tried his best to deny it.

Xiao Qi shook his head and didn't look at Hu Zi, making it clear that he was "I don't believe you kid".

Except for the angry Huzi, everyone else laughed.The third sister-in-law took Xiaoqi with one hand and Huzi with the other, and pushed the two of them to the table to sit down, "Okay, stop fighting. Let's eat while the food is ready."

"Thank you, sister-in-law three." The two young men stopped pinching each other in front of the delicious food, picked up their chopsticks and picked up their favorite dishes.

The others all laughed again, Uncle Fu Gui shook his head amusedly, and led Fifth Brother to the table and sat down.Luo Cheng and Su Han sat down separately, and the third sister-in-law sat beside Luo Cheng holding her daughter.

Uncle Fugui looked at the rich dishes and sighed, "The dishes are good, but unfortunately there is no wine."

"Wine? Yes!" said the third sister-in-law.

"Could it be the fruit wine that Miss Luo taught the women to make last time? Can I drink it?" Wu Ge asked, remembering that his wife had run to the mountain with great enthusiasm to pick a few large baskets of wild fruits, clamoring for Brew fruit wine.I have never heard that the fruit can be used to make wine, so I don't know how it tastes.

"I can drink it, I can drink it. I'll open a jar for you to taste." The third sister-in-law said as she walked out.

"Sister-in-law three, I'll help you." Xiao Qi ran out after sister-in-law San with a salt-and-pepper tit in his mouth. The boy is not very old, but he likes to drink. Because the family is poor, he can only drink a sip or two during the holidays. , Hearing from the third sister-in-law that the homemade wine was ready to drink, the wine bug was seduced and decided secretly that he must drink it to his heart's content.

"Look at that good-for-nothing." Hu Zi snorted, the two boys like to expose each other's faults the most, bickering is a common thing, but their relationship is the strongest.

An intoxicating smell of wine wafted over, Uncle Fu Gui, Fifth Brother, Hu Zi and Su Han sniffed.

"Good wine!" Uncle Fu Gui exclaimed in praise, "You can tell this wine is special just by smelling its aroma."

"Drink more good wine." The third sister-in-law walked into the room with a smile, holding several wine bowls in her hand.

Xiao Qi hugged the opened wine jar, wishing she could take a sip immediately, "Don't worry, sister-in-law, we'll take care of all the wine in this jar." After finishing speaking, he poured a bowl of wine for everyone, and naturally, Except for Nannan, the little girl is too young to drink.

"Good, delicious!" Uncle Fugui praised loudly without hesitation.

"Well, it's better than the wine sold in the town." The fifth brother nodded in agreement, thinking in his heart that his wife has brewed dozens of jars, enough for him to drink for a year, but I don't know if the taste is similar to that made by the third sister-in-law delicious.It should be okay, they all learned from Miss Luo.

Huzi and Xiaoqi didn't think too much about it, they just thought that the food was good and the wine was good, the two of them competed to eat food and drink, and almost fought.

Su Han slowly sipped the slightly sour and mellow fruit wine, and looked at Luo Cheng with questions and inquiries in his eyes, who is the woman in front of him?Why does she have such miraculous medical skills?Why does she know how to heal the plague?Why does she know so many magical skills?

For a month, Su Han has been by Luo Cheng's side, watching her relieve the villagers' illnesses with mysterious green light; watching her completely cure the plague in Hongjia Village with a prescription; watching her teach men to build bamboo buildings , set up hunting traps; watched her teach her daughters to brew wine, weave bamboo frames and bamboo mats, and various bamboo crafts; she taught mountain villagers to weave fishing nets and use mountain springs to raise fish; The little rabbits, little pheasants, and little bamboo rats that came back were raised and sold for money or eaten by themselves when they grew up; she taught the villagers to reclaim farmland and plant in greenhouses, so that summer vegetables and fruits could be harvested in spring; The small mountain village has become full of vigor... All the means are so magical!The villagers secretly said that she descended from a fairy, but Su Han suspected that Luo Cheng came from the holy land of martial arts - Yunding City.Because the people in Yunding City are as mysterious and magical as Luo Cheng.Soon after, Su Han dispelled this guess, because every descendant of Yunding City who walks the rivers and lakes has extraordinary martial arts, but Luo Cheng can't even beat tigers——Luo Cheng has all practiced the skills of saving people I went, I haven't practiced my attack skills at all, it's good to be able to kill pheasants and hares, how can I beat a big man?

"Yo? Why don't you greet my old man when you have good wine and food?" The old village chief came in from the yard.Although his head is full of white hair and beard, and he has to walk with a cane, but the old man is hale and hearty, with a red face, and he can no longer find the decadence and aging when he first met Luo Cheng.

"Old village chief, please sit down quickly." Everyone hurriedly got up and welcomed the old village chief to sit at the main seat, and the third sister-in-law hurried to the kitchen to get a pair of bowls and chopsticks.The old village head is very prestigious in Hongjia Village, and everyone respects this respected old man from the bottom of their hearts.

The third sister-in-law scooped up a bowl of rotten stewed mountain mushroom and pheasant soup and placed it in front of the old village head. Xiao Qi poured a bowl full of fruit wine for the old village head.The old village head took a sip of the wine, squinted his eyes for a long time, opened his eyes and praised, "It's delicious. I didn't expect that wild fruits can make such good wine. Girls, you will call the women in the village tomorrow Go pick wild fruits, make more wine this time, and sell it down the mountain for money."

The old village head stuffed a piece of soft chicken into his mouth, smacked his mouth, his eyes shone with golden light, as if he saw a large pile of copper coins piled up in front of him.

"Okay!" The third sister-in-law responded crisply.

"Village Chief, please come to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing. When you come this time, do you have any questions to ask Miss Luo for advice?" Fifth Brother asked with a smile. The villagers respected Luo Cheng and the old village chief equally.They knew that life in the village was so good now because of these two people. Luo Cheng made the plan, and the old village chief led everyone to act according to the plan.

The old village chief pointed at Fifth Brother with his chopsticks, "You are the only one who is cunning, and you are bad. However, I do have something to discuss with Miss Luo."

"Old village chief? What's the matter?" Luo Cheng asked curiously. She had already told the old village chief all the ways she could think of to help Hongjia Village. What else do you want to ask her?
The old village chief put down his chopsticks and rubbed his hands together, "Well, Miss Luo, this, you see, our village uses water from the mountain spring, which is more than a mile away from our village. It takes a lot of time to go back, and the water you can pick up is only two buckets at most, which is not enough to irrigate an acre of fields. Look, is there any way to solve this problem?"

Do you use water?Indeed, the water source is far away from Hongjia Village, and the women in the village have to go back and forth more than ten times a day to carry water, which is time-consuming and laborious, and has delayed many other affairs.Luo Cheng lowered her head, and kept recalling in her mind the knowledge about solving farmland water sources that she had read in online novels——when Luo Cheng was on Earth, her favorite thing to read was farming novels.

Have!Luo Cheng's eyes lit up, and he remembered the method he saw in a certain novel.

"Old village chief, dig a pond outside the village, then dig a canal to connect the pond and the mountain spring, and guide the water from the mountain spring into the pond."

"The location of the mountain spring is lower than that of the village, and the water from the mountain spring cannot be channeled!" The old village head said in a difficult way.

"It doesn't matter, we can make a water wheel so that water can flow from a low place to a high place."

"Waterwheel?" The old village chief asked hastily, "What kind? How to do it?"

"Don't worry! I'll draw the blueprint of the waterwheel and give it to you later. Let's eat now."

"Yes, yes, let's eat first." The old village head was very happy when the water problem was solved, and he greeted everyone with food and drinks, and showed his teeth cheerfully.
