Only this green, not disappointing the spring

Zhou Xiaonan was in the carriage, staring through the curtains at her sister getting further and further away from her.

She really wanted her sister to go with her. That was the back garden of the county magistrate’s house. It must be so beautiful!

Zhang Jiaojiao looked at the pitiful little girl and could only comfort her in a gentle voice:

"Xiao Nannan, don't be sad. There will be many opportunities like this in the future. Mrs. Zou is hosting a small banquet this time, and it would be inappropriate for us to suddenly bring one more person over."

Zhou Xiaonan quickly calmed down and explained anxiously:

"Sister Jiaojiao, you misunderstood. Although I really want my sister to go with me, it's just a thought. I won't do anything to embarrass you, but I feel a little guilty. In fact, my sister could have come to the clinic as an apprentice, but she gave up because she was worried about her family."

This was the first time Zhang Jiaojiao had heard of this, but she could understand Sister Xiaonan's approach. It was true that children from poor families grew up early!

In the future, I will try to help as much as possible wherever I can.

After the carriage drove away, Zhou Xiaoxi followed Li Dali into Huichun Hall.

Doctor Zhang was a little surprised to see Li Dali holding a basket of fresh pears.

"Little friend Li, why did you bring so many pears?"

Zhou Xiaoxi spoke first:

"Doctor Zhang, this is the best season for pears. The pears from our Dali Village are crisp and sweet. I brought them here for you to taste and we can talk about something."

Doctor Zhang burst out laughing, this little fox!

"Xiaoxi girl, you are clearly here to bribe me. In this case, some things cannot be said in front of outsiders. You two can follow me to the backyard to chat for a while!"

After saying this, he turned around and gave the medicine boy a few instructions. Without paying any attention to the two of them, he walked straight to the backyard with his hands behind his back.

Li Dali laughed as he distributed pears to the shop assistants one by one. They were all fresh fruits just picked from the trees, and everyone rubbed them on their bodies and started to bite.

The little medicine boy was about the same age as Zhou Xiaonan. He took the pear, which was almost as big as his face, opened his mouth and took a big bite.

The sweet juice filled his mouth. He had never eaten such a delicious pear. He nodded repeatedly at Li Dali in praise.

The reactions of the people around me were almost the same.

Zhou Xiaoxi was satisfied and thought that today's plan would be successful.

Doctor Zhang sat on the stone bench in the backyard, holding a kettle in his hand and preparing to make tea.

A clever person like Zhou Xiaoxi would never let Doctor Zhang work. He trotted over and diligently made tea for the old man.

However, Zhou Xiaoxi, who had never learned about the culture of tea brewing in his two lifetimes, had no idea what Kung Fu tea was. When he saw the tea bowl had tea leaves in it, he filled it with hot water without saying a word.

Doctor Zhang was so angry that his beard was about to stand up.

"Little Xi, I misjudged you. I thought you knew how to make tea, but you ended up wasting such good tea!"

Zhou Xiaoxi smiled awkwardly.

"Uh, hehe... Doctor Zhang, please be considerate of a country girl like me. Before I met you, I had never seen tea leaves, let alone brewing tea. Please just drink it this time, and I will learn from you later. I promise I can learn 70% to 80% of it!"

Li Dali also came over with a smile and put the remaining half basket of pears in the shade. He quickly washed two large pears and even asked someone to cut them into small pieces with a knife and brought them over on a plate.

"Doctor Zhang, please try the fruits grown on the trees in our village. They are delicious. If you don't like the bowl of tea that Xiaoxi girl made, just leave it all for me. I really love it!"

Doctor Zhang was quite happy watching the two of them acting funny in front of him.

He reached out and took a few pieces of pears of different sizes and tasted them. He was a little surprised by the taste. It tasted really good!

He no longer embarrassed the two and asked directly:

"Just tell me, what do you want me to do?"

Zhou Xiaoxi didn't hesitate and directly expressed his thoughts:

"I wonder if our clinic needs some pear paste at this time of year. Xiaonan is learning for free here and eating and living for free. We feel really bad about it, so we thought of sending some pears to Huichuntang for free. Just ask for as many as you need. We have a lot of pears on the trees at home, but they're not worth much."

Doctor Zhang was a little surprised when he heard this. Ordinary people don’t have the chance to get access to such a good thing as Autumn Pear Paste, let alone the country people.

"Xiaoxi girl, where did you hear about this autumn pear paste? Do you know how to make it?"

Uh, now I have to mention again that excuse that I have almost used to death!

"I heard it from a peddler who came to the village. He said that we have so many pears in Dali Village, it would be a shame not to use them to make autumn pear paste!"

"I wanted to ask more about it, but he said he didn't know either. He just knew it was a rare thing that only wealthy families could afford."

Doctor Zhang stared at Zhou Xiaoxi for a long time, trying to find any sign of lying or guilt on her face.

Zhou Xiaoxi used all the skin she had accumulated in two lifetimes, trying hard to appear sincere, simple and innocent.

Li Dali's gaze shifted back and forth between the two of them. He scratched his head with a confused look on his face.

Why did these two people suddenly stop talking?

The peddlers who came to the village were indeed quite talkative. When he was a child, he envied those people who could walk around the streets!

Finally, Doctor Zhang spoke again. Zhou Xiaoxi breathed a sigh of relief. That was a close call!

"These pears taste really good to me. If we use these pears to make autumn pear paste, it will be the best choice. However, little girl, you must know that one kilogram of autumn pear paste requires twenty kilograms of pears. How many can you have at home?"

Li Dali opened his eyes wide. City people are so particular!

Twenty kilograms of pears can be eaten by the whole family for many days, but the pear paste only produces one kilogram! The sesame oil in the village can only produce one kilogram from four or five kilograms!

Zhou Xiaoxi smiled.

"Doctor Zhang, our village is called Dali Village. Many of the pear trees there are older than my uncle. They are everywhere in the village, and the yield is amazing!"

What Zhou Xiaoxi said was not an exaggeration at all. Many of the fruits growing in high places were too lazy for the villagers to climb up to pick them, so they were basically either pecked by birds or rotted and fell all over the ground.

A pound of pears only costs a dozen coins, and some people even sell them for a few coins. It really hurts farmers when the grain is cheap!

After listening to Zhou Xiaoxi's explanation, Doctor Zhang even had the urge to go to Dali Village. The village was full of pear trees, and you could easily pick the fruit, which was very novel.

But there is no one in Huichuntang who can replace me, so I really can’t leave!

"According to what you said, your Dali Village is really a Feng Shui treasure land. If you can guarantee that the pears in the village are of the same quality as the pears picked today, Huichuntang will first order 200 kilograms of goods. If the quality of the boiled pears is indeed good, how about adding another 1,000 kilograms?"

Li Dali's mouth is completely out of control, Zhang's boss.

?)?Д?(

But the pear trees of his and his mother's families combined can only produce more than 800 kilograms of pears, which is not enough to deliver to Huichuntang for free, let alone sell for money...

It’s not that I feel bad about it, but I didn’t expect that just one clinic would need so many pears!
