Only this green, not disappointing the spring

Chapter 10 An unexpected reward (3)

After a moment of contemplation, Doctor Zhang spoke.

"Little girl, I will make an exception for you this time!"

Hearing this, Zhou Xiaoxi's eyes lit up instantly!

"I will stay in Huaihua Village for three days. During these three days, you sisters will follow me to the mountains to collect herbs. I will teach you how to identify, pick, prepare, and store the herbs needed in the prescription one by one."

At this point, Doctor Zhang paused because there was still a difficult problem that he couldn't solve.

"But there is only one kind of ginseng that is difficult to pick, and it may cost money. This is the best method, and the remaining difficulties can only be solved by you. If you sisters cannot satisfy me after three days, then this self-sufficient method must be abandoned. If it is used incorrectly, your father may lose his life. Remember, remember!"

Doctor Zhang's expression was more serious than ever before. The pressure he exuded made Li's mother and daughter nod seriously again and again, fearing that Doctor Zhang would not believe them and would stop teaching them.

It was getting dark, and Dr. Zhang's accommodation problem had to be solved first.

It is definitely inappropriate for them to live in their own home. If others knew about it, the villagers would throw the three of them into a pig cage without hesitation.

There is no human rights in this world, and Zhou Xiaoxi needs to remind himself to be careful in what he says and does.

After a little thought, she decided to take Dr. Zhang to live directly at her grandfather's house.

Old man Zhou was also a very proud person. Now that the person had been brought home, he couldn't bring himself to refuse.

Letting Doctor Zhang live in my grandfather's house is the best option, mainly because he doesn't have to pay, and he can also get back the jar of wine that Xu Nuoli grew.

After her daughter and Doctor Zhang left, Li couldn't wait to run to her man, feeling both nervous and excited.

"Dad, you finally woke up. Our family was almost destroyed. You don't even know how the three of us managed to survive during the days you were unconscious."

As soon as he started talking, he couldn't help sobbing.

Li was really wronged. She had such a large family and her father was still alive.

But when something happened in this family, no one cared about it, and her three elder sisters-in-law didn't even show up.

My family in my mother's family lives far away, and during the most difficult times, I couldn't even send a letter.

At first, my parents did not approve of my marrying Zhou Jun. The man was away from home all year round, and the woman had to endure so much hardship. The two families lived too far away from each other, and I had no one to cry to when I was wronged.

But she just happened to be attracted by Zhou Jun's appearance at first sight. He was also bold and daring, unlike other men in the village who only cared about farming.

At this point, not only has she not enjoyed a single day of happiness, but her tears have almost run dry.

Zhou Jun, lying on the bed, was speechless and sweating profusely.

Although he has been in a coma for the past few days, he can actually hear sounds, but he cannot hold on for long before falling into a coma again.

Even so, he heard a lot.

She was so excited that her body began to twitch uncontrollably. Li was panicked and stood there at a loss.

Zhou Xiaonan immediately sat down beside the bed, held his father's hand tightly, and soothed him gently.

"Daddy, don't be anxious. Come and take a deep breath with Xiaonan. Inhale slowly, yes, more slowly. Come on, let's exhale together, more slowly..."

Zhou Jun kept looking at his little daughter and practicing breathing exercises with her. After a while, he really relaxed.

My eyes began to moisten again. My ten-year-old daughter seemed to have grown up overnight. It was like a lifetime ago!

It's all his fault. He is useless and unwilling to be a farmer all his life. He relies on his youth and doesn't take care of his body.

If he could recover his health, he would definitely turn over a new leaf and live a down-to-earth life!

Li was extremely ashamed. It was bad enough that she was not as capable as her eldest daughter, but how come she was not even as capable as her youngest daughter?

At my age, I always get panicky when something happens.

"My dear, how did you come up with this idea? It's all thanks to you being here. I was confused. Your father obviously has a brain injury and can't stand the stimulation. How could I have forgotten it?"

"Mom, this is what my sister taught me. One time, the kids in the village bullied us and I was so angry that my hands were shaking. My sister taught me to take deep breaths, saying that this would help my body relax. My sister is amazing!"

The couple both smiled with relief.

"Yes, yes, your sister is the best. Our Xiaonan likes your sister the most!"

Patting her daughter's head, Li agreed repeatedly.

It seems that the child Xiaoxi has become smarter and more sensible since he woke up from falling into the water.

Originally she still had some doubts, always feeling that her daughter had changed a lot, but now even her little daughter is like a little adult, so she has completely figured it out and no longer worries about it.

……

The next morning, Doctor Zhang took the two girls to the mountain behind the village, and the villagers all knew that Doctor Zhang was staying overnight at Old Man Zhou's house.

Everyone was very confused. How much money did the Zhou family have to give to make the doctor willingly stay in the village to treat Zhou Jun?

Mrs. Li seemed virtuous and frugal on weekdays, and always said that life was not easy, but it turned out that she was just pretending.

When Zhou Jun came back from the military camp, he must have saved a lot of money, maybe even some gold ingots! He was drinking and chatting happily with his second brother all day, which was certain.

When they heard the news, some smart people had already planned to bring some homemade food to see Doctor Zhang for a check-up.

I always feel unwell on weekdays, but who would be willing to spend money to go to the city for medical treatment? What if I get cheated by that black-hearted doctor, wouldn’t my family’s savings be drained?

While Doctor Zhang is in the village, if we give him some benefits he will definitely be willing to see the patient. Anyway, the Zhou family has already paid the money, so one more person won't make much difference, right?

But who would have thought that no one was seen the whole day. What were they doing on the mountain?

There was a curious villager who secretly followed the three people, intending to find out what was going on.

But after looking at it for so long, what are you doing around those weeds? Can you dig out gold?

So, during these three days when Dr. Zhang was giving Zhou Xiaoxi and her sister field lessons, there were suddenly a lot of people running up the mountain to pick wild vegetables.

Some were even shameless enough to come forward and listen. Although they were confused, they did find out one thing - Doctor Zhang was teaching the sisters how to collect herbs.

They followed suit and followed suit, no matter what weeds the two sisters were pulling.

Some clever ones ran home with various weeds and told their families that these were medicinal herbs and they could definitely be sold for money in a clinic in the city.

During these three days, Zhou Xiaoxi and her sister were so busy that they had to keep their feet on the ground. They needed to identify the herbs repeatedly to achieve zero mistakes, and they also had to be familiar with the methods of picking and preparing them.

In addition, the acupoints for moxibustion on dad also need to be memorized repeatedly and practiced.

Surprisingly, Zhou Xiaonan, who originally followed her sister to join in the fun, showed amazing talent.

It really is true that an unexpected result leads to a good harvest!
