Fast-traveling female supporting role counterattacks in a different way

Chapter 10
"What kind of fruit is that on the tree? Can humans eat it?" Rosy asked Er Gouzi curiously.

Er Gouzi looked up at the small red fruit on the tree in the distance, then looked back at Rosy, and said in surprise, "That is jujube, almost no one eats it, it is very sour." Don't you know?

"Come on, let's go and have a look!" Rosie became interested when she heard that it was edible, and she took Er Gouzi to the jujube tree. Shanxi acetic acid?

I pulled a branch from an unknown tree next to me, took it in my hand and began to knock on the small red jujube on the tree, the sound of "crack...crack..." was heard, and it fell around the tree after a while. On the first floor, "Take the back strap down and put it on the ground, and start picking it up." Rosie greeted Er Gouzi who was standing and staring stupidly, then squatted down and picked up a wild jujube, and threw it into her mouth. ' said, "Ouch! This is so sour~" Rosie couldn't open her sour eyes, it was much more sour than hawthorn. Hawthorn is at least sweet and sour, but this jujube has a sour taste.Rosie felt like her teeth were sour.

"Pfft~ I told you that no one eats the sour ones. If you still don't believe it, let's go and check out other places. Remember, there will be some mountain grapes further ahead. They are sour and sweet. All you women like to eat them." Er Gouzi had a smile in his eyes and was about to leave as he spoke.

"Wait a minute, since it fell to the ground, just pick it up in the back basket. I'll be useful." Rosie quickly stopped the other party.

"Didn't you taste it? This thing is so sour, why waste all your energy picking it up? What's the use?" Er Gouzi was a little reluctant.

"If you don't want to pick it up, put it down and I'll pick it up. You just rest, that's all." This is also a lazy guy who is on par with the original owner.Rosie thought it would be better to pick it up herself.Although jujubes are sour, Rosie planned to take them home and think about them. Maybe adding some sugar to them would make some sweet and sour snacks.

"Forget it, let's pick it together!" Defeated by Rosie's stubbornness, the other party had to compromise, and then picked up the jujubes on the ground together with Rosie.In the end, I picked up wild jujubes weighing about 10 catties before I finished picking up the ones on the ground.Er Gouzi picked up the strap and took Rosie together towards the place where the grapes grew in his memory.

Mountain grapes are similar to ordinary grapes in appearance and color, the only difference is that mountain grapes are smaller than ordinary grapes, a bit like mature nightshade.

Looking at the large field of mountain grapes in front of her, Rosie seemed to have seen the fragrant and round wine waving to her.Rosie shouted excitedly, dragging her fat body like a round meat ball towards a purple-black mountain grape.

Er Gouzi looked at the scene in front of him worriedly. To be honest, he was really afraid that the other party would not be able to stop his pace and would roll inside and crush a large piece with his butt.

Don't let something good be wasted!
"Run slower, don't worry, no one will compete with you!" Ergouzi shouted quickly, his eyes twitching, this must be too annoying.

Running closer, Rosie stopped, reached out to pick a bunch, plucked one from the top in her hand, and stuffed it into her mouth without even caring about peeling it off. The juice from the bite was flying in her mouth, "Yeah , sweet and sour, not bad!”

"Pick some and take them home to eat." Ergouzi said, picking one and tasting it, "Well, it's ripe and not very sour anymore."

"Pick, it's best to pick up all the bamboo baskets on your back!" Rosie looked at the big picture in front of her greedily, wishing she didn't pick up an extra basket on her back when she went out.

"You can find this thing in other places on the mountain. There are so many of them. If you pick too much, you can't finish it when you take it home. If you can't keep it, it will be spoiled. Just pick a few bunches to eat. You can pick them again next time you want to eat." Ergouzi I don’t agree. What’s wrong with this fat woman today? When she saw the jujubes on the jujube tree, she wanted to beat them all. Now she’s like this when she sees mountain grapes. Could it be that her family is poor and she hasn’t eaten fruit for a long time, so she’s so greedy?Thinking of this, Ergouzi raised his head again and said, "Go to town tomorrow. My mother and I will ask for some money. Let's go to town to buy you some fruit."

"Oh! How did you suddenly know that you should be nice to me? Besides, didn't my family want to keep the money for you to go to the academy? Would your mother allow you to spend copper coins to buy me fruits?" Rosie looked at Er Gouzi in surprise, Why is this girl suddenly so kind and willing to spend money to buy things? Is the sun going to set in the east later?

"Forget it if you don't want it, you should eat more jujubes and wild grapes." Er Gouzi also remembered for a moment that his mother was reluctant to split a few coins for a copper coin, so how could she agree to waste money by buying fruits with copper coins.On the spur of the moment, I forgot this, hoping that the other party didn't take it seriously.Er Gouzi felt that he was quite useless. The life at home was so difficult, but he couldn't help him. Sure enough, he was a scholar who was useless.Fortunately, my daughter-in-law is fat. Otherwise, according to my living conditions, the other party would not be skinny and skinny. I didn’t see that I usually don’t eat the pickles on the table. Mountain grapes are so excited that they don't even let go of the sour jujube that others don't like to eat?This is because the family is poor and the other party is greedy. Er Gouzi feels that he is the truth. Looking at Rosie who is excitedly picking mountain grapes, he feels very guilty. The daughter of the other party's dignified county magistrate lived a luxurious life before marrying him After marrying into her own slum, she ate bran and swallowed vegetables with her, and ran all over the mountains to dig wild vegetables and pick wild fruits.well!It's hard for the other party, Er Gouzi, with guilt, decided that one day he will be a hero in the future. After divorced the other party, he must try to arrange a good life for the other party, so that the other party can live a life of servants and servants. If the other party arrives at that time If you don't want to remarry, you can support the other party for the rest of your life. Sister Withered Grass is so kind, and she will definitely agree when the time comes.

If Rosie knew what the other person was thinking at this moment, she would definitely say: You are wrong.

After picking some mountain grapes, Rosie decided not to pick any more. She will go to the town tomorrow to buy a few larger jars, and then come here to pick a few more times. When it is ready, it can be drunk, and then it can be exchanged for some silver in the restaurant in the town.

"By the way, does anyone use mountain grapes to make wine?" Rosie asked her educated and talented husband Ergouzi.

"Isn't all wine brewed with grain? How do you make grapes?" Er Gouzi asked with a puzzled look on his face.

It seems that people in this dynasty did not know that fruits could be used to make wine. After all, wine is a foreign culture and it is estimated that it has not spread to the Central Plains.I wonder if there are foreign countries in this world?
"Shanren has his own unique skills!" Rosie snorted.

Er Gouzi: "..."

"Let's see if there are any herbs in other places." Rosie was still a little reluctant to go back.

Er Gouzi: "..."

The final result was that Rosie was lucky enough to find two Astragalus strains on the mountain. Astragalus is as effective as ginseng in anti-aging, increasing immunity, detoxifying and promoting muscle growth, protecting the liver and warming the uterus, treating impotence, preventing colds, and consolidating Qi and blood. traditional Chinese medicine.Rosie excitedly went over and pulled out the root. Yes, the root was as thick as an adult man's thumb.You should be able to sell it for some money when you get it to town.

"This thing can be soaked in water to drink, it is a tonic." Er Gouzi also said happily with his eyes shining.

"I plan to take it to the drug store to exchange for some money when I go to town tomorrow. I should charge it, right?"

"Well, I think the good medicine shop will accept it. Let's go to town together tomorrow." Ergouzi said.

"What are you going to do?" Rosie was curious.

"Look to see if there is any book copying work in the bookstore in the town. I plan to fry some books in my free time at home, so that I can increase my income at home. It will make life easier for the family." Er Gouzi hesitated.

"Yo! That's good, you know you have paid for your family when you are enlightened." Rosie patted Er Gouzi on the shoulder in praise, and Er Gouzi looked embarrassed.

"But will it delay your study?" If it delays your study, it will be like losing the watermelon and picking up the sesame seeds, which is not cost-effective.
