The fierce peasant woman is busy farming

"Then how much can this ginseng be sold for?"

Zhou Yue finally asked the question he had always wanted to ask.

The few people walking together also pricked up their ears to listen, everyone wanted to know.

“It’s hard to say. I haven’t seen ginseng this good and this old for a long time.

Such a good thing is priceless in the market. It can be worth dozens or hundreds of taels of silver.

It all depends on how much the buyer is willing to pay.”

Song Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, as long as he didn't talk about death.

He only took one hundred taels of silver from the saint.

He almost gave it away as a betrothal gift yesterday.

Fortunately, the Ning family did not care about his abruptness, and Zhou told him afterwards that they would not blame him.

No, how can it be called a blame?

Of course, no matter how anxious he was, there was no reason for him to go in person to propose marriage.

This matter still needs long-term consideration.

"Well, Aunt Zhou, I only have one hundred taels on me, I'll take it first.

When I return, I will report the details to the saint and see how much money he can give.

I will definitely get some more for you.”

Zhou Yue didn't take it seriously. It was just something he picked up, so he would take whatever the other party gave him.

That's what the emperor wanted. Even if he didn't give you the money, he took it from you for nothing. Do you really want to go to the capital to complain?

Since ancient times, the people have never fought against officials. Even in the seemingly reasonable and law-abiding Dahui Dynasty, ordinary people were very afraid of officials.

"Master Song is too polite, one hundred taels is enough.

It is a good thing that is naturally grown and can be given to those in need.

It is a good fortune for the world, and it also brings blessings to ordinary people like us.”

Song Yuan still has something to talk to Zhou Yue about, but he hasn't had the chance. He will leave with the ginseng tomorrow, so he must talk tonight.

After returning home, Zhou Yue took the children to dry the medicinal herbs.

Watching Qian and Chunniang collecting the baby's clothes, mats and diapers, Zhou Yue thought that the due date was really approaching.

Some things must be prepared quickly.

Based on what they said, she had calculated that the due date would be next spring.

Later I found out that it was not the case, the due date was in the twelfth lunar month.

It is the coldest time of the year, so building a firewall must be put on the agenda.

There are also midwives and gynecologists who must be found in advance, paid in advance, and made arrangements.

During the period of due date, they can postpone other people's appointments and be available on call at any time.

Ensure Chun Niang's smooth delivery.

Even in modern times, childbirth is the gate of hell for women, and it was even more so in ancient times.

Many people lost their mothers in childhood, many because their mothers died during childbirth.

Especially since Chunniang was giving birth to her first child, and the Ning family lived in this remote countryside, there was no doctor in the village.

You need to be extremely careful.

Zhou Yue had already started looking for a midwife a long time ago, and he found not just one, but several.

After much selection, we finally decided on three.

They all promised generous fees and paid a deposit in advance.

After an agreed time, three midwives would move to Fenghuangtai Village ten days before the due date.

For this purpose, Zhou Yue found an uninhabited yard in the village next to the Ning family's house.

I cleaned it up early, made some simple repairs, and tidied up the kang.

They cleaned up a few rooms, but there was no stove, so they didn't have to cook their own meals, they could just go to Ning's house and eat together.

We have reserved a larger room for Dr. Yang and cleaned it up so he can live in it when the time comes.

There is no way. I can't find any other good doctors locally.

Doctor Yang was a little unhappy that she was asked to come to Fenghuangtai Village specifically to wait for delivery.

But considering that he had used Zhou Yue's method to cure several people's leg injuries, he didn't object much.

Finally, with Zhou Yue's suggestion, he came up with an idea. He found some colleagues and posted messages to them.

When they were invited to gather in Fenghuangtai Village during those days, Zhou Yue said it was called the Traditional Chinese Medicine Forum.

All travel expenses, food and accommodation expenses were borne by Zhou Yue, who was also willing to provide some medical books and medicinal materials for them to exchange and appreciate.

Finally, I heard that Doctor Yang invited more than a dozen doctors from Yi County to attend the meeting.

Zhou Yue was shocked.

Well, she thought that Dr. Yang was such a stubborn person and had no friends.

She thought that Dr. Yang could invite three or five good friends to live in Fenghuangtai Village.

There is no need to worry about any accidents happening during Chun Niang’s childbirth.

There are always one or two doctors who are good at obstetrics and gynecology.

There was no other choice, so Zhou Yue rented a yard specifically for the purpose, repainted it, planted some flowers and trees, dragged in some rocks, and decorated the farmyard like a garden.

There are no green plants in the north in winter, so I had to dig up a few strange-looking pine and cypress trees from my own mountain and temporarily plant them in the yard to serve as a facade.

Wait until they leave, then plant it again.

Those two courtyards were completed a few days ago.

He also asked Doctor Yang to come and check it out in person. He was very satisfied and felt that he was honored to be able to hold such a grand event and have such a high reception standard.

The yard of others has been cleaned up, but my own yard has not yet started.

Zhou Yue wanted to wait until these guests left before he started building a firewall.

As soon as she got home, she asked Qingmo and Qian to cook, and she stayed in the room writing and drawing, and drew a sketch of the fire wall.

Then he called Yang Mo and explained it to her. Yang Mo took a ruler and went to his sister-in-law's room to measure it.

I went back and took the pen to draw the picture again.

The pictures she drew were perspective drawings with various dimensions.

Finally, even the amount of soil and stone needed was calculated.

I have to admire that professionals do professional things, some things are really talents.

With a design drawing, implementation is easy.

This matter is naturally about Old Man Ning, Yang Mo and Xuan Mo.

After dinner that day, Song Yuan asked Zhou Yue if he could talk to him for a moment.

Zhou Yue knew what he wanted to say.

They went out together, and walked towards the river in the twilight.

Brother Dao and Jun Mo followed quietly behind.

They discovered it, but pretended not to see it.

Jun Mo likes to go out for a walk, and Zhou Yue was a little worried at first.

But after doing this many times, I felt relieved when I saw that Jun Mo and Brother Dao were safe and sound every time.

Jun Mo has grown up a little and is no longer the skinny, cowardly and helpless child.

He is growing very fast now. He weighs about 30 or 40 kilograms and is as tall as a six-year-old child.

Since he had Brother Dao as his ally, Zhou Yue felt at ease letting him go play in the mountains.

Nature is the best place for healing.

Animals are the most loyal friends.

Jun Mo now has these two things, all he needs is time.

"By the way, Auntie, remember I told you no, this Dao brother is not right?"

"Oh? What do you say?"

“I don’t think it looks like a dog.”

"Haha, you can see that it is very cunning and looks a lot like a human.

I feel like its IQ is the same as that of a five or six-year-old child.”

Song Yuan: “…”

"It's like one of our family members now. I guess it doesn't think of itself as a dog."

Song Yuan: "Ahem, no, auntie, I mean, it looks like a wolf."

"Wolf? Don't scare me." Zhou Yue's hair almost stood up.

She suddenly turned her head to look at Brother Dao, and Brother Dao was startled by her.

Brother Dao reflected in his heart that neither he nor Jun Mo had made any mistakes recently.
