In the book, she became the daughter of a vicious villain who died early

"Help these two young men and this young lady to check their pulses."

Lin Anru pointed at the three children behind An Zi's mother.

Before Lin Shiyu walked over and said anything, the three children who were already hiding behind their mother hid even deeper.

Then Anzi's mother immediately brought the three children to her side, fearing that Lin Anru would regret it later and not treat the children.

"Put your hand out."

After taking the pulses of the three people, Lin Shiyu retired.

"Sister Yu has already checked the child's condition. I will have to go to the county town in two days to buy the herbs. When I get them, I will ask my son to send them to your home."

"Thank you, thank you, thank you..."

Anzi's mother bowed and thanked him, and at the same time asked her three children to kneel down and kowtow to Lin Anru: "Hurry up and thank your uncle Anru."

The three children knelt down obediently. Lin Anru wanted to dodge but was stopped by the village chief.

Lin Anru was forced to accept the kneeling thank you ceremony:...

"Well, uncle, I want to ask how to pay off a debt with work?"

Anzi's mother asked nervously, as she was the only adult in their family, and a female at that.

Because the man in the family had passed away and the boy was still young and had no labor force, the village chief discussed with her to take their family's land into the public domain and return it to their family when the boy came of age. In the years when the land was taken away, 10% of the income from the land would be given to them as a reward.

Although a 10% harvest is small, it is better than letting it go to waste. If she really had to farm, the harvest might not even be enough to pay the tax, but Anzi's mother was still very content.

The one percent of food in the tribe was just enough to keep their family from starving, and there was no surplus.

She herself doesn't have any skills to make money, so her family has no income at all, so giving her money or something is unrealistic.

Lin Anru had expected that she would choose this:

"My wife is not in good health, and I am busy copying books to pay off my debts. I don't have any spare time. My children are still young and I can't help them. So if possible, please send a load of firewood every other day."

This is indeed one of the reasons. Another reason is that when Lin Shiyu prepared the medicinal materials, many of them needed to be steamed before they could be dried. Some even needed to be steamed and dried three times. The firewood he collected by himself was not enough for his daughter.

"Is it that simple?"

Anzi's mother was suspicious. It was spring here all year round, and the flowers, plants and trees grew vigorously all year round. For firewood, they could just go out to the door and pick up some fallen leaves to burn.

As for dead branches, diligent families will pick them up and use them when stewing or cooking during festivals or happy events.

Other people really don't know how to store firewood. After all, it's not cold in the winter, so they don't need to burn firewood to keep warm. At most, they just burn a few more dry leaves when boiling water.

"Yes, that's the request. The medicine for your three children will be paid with three years' worth of firewood."

Anzi's mother felt that she had gotten a great bargain. Even if they sent her a load of firewood every other day, she would feel that she had made a big profit.

Liu sent a few people out, but Lin Anru was still chatting with the village chief in the lobby.

"Want to try again?"

"I have this plan."

"Okay, okay!"

The village chief stood up, patted him on the shoulder and encouraged him: "Go ahead and try again. I'm here for you!"

Lin Anru is a young man he has high hopes for, but he has been delayed by Old Man Lin for almost ten years. He is really afraid that he will give up on Lin Anru.

"Yes."

Lin Anru lowered his head. He was now carrying the expectations of many people, and he couldn't give up for them.

……

“Is this delicious?”

“It shouldn’t taste good?”

"Oh~"

When he heard that it didn't taste good, Lin Boyu lost interest in what she had in her hand.

"What is this for?"

Liu also came over and pointed at what was in Lin Shiyu's hand.

It was the yellow membrane taken out from the chicken kidney after the chicken was slaughtered on the day of the wedding banquet.

"It is also a medicine that can strengthen the stomach and help digestion. It can also stop nocturnal emission and can be used to treat nocturnal emission in children. It can also relieve stranguria and dissolve stones, and can be used for urinary stones and gallstones."

"It's actually medicine?(?'?'? )??????"

Liu was instantly interested, medicine equals money.

"It's actually medicine. Then wouldn't all the things that were thrown away when chickens were slaughtered during the New Year and other festivals in the past be wasted?"

When Liu thought about the money, her heart ached.

Lin Shiyu nodded. It was indeed a waste. People here only killed one or two chickens a year. It was as difficult to get chicken gizzard lining as it was to eat meat.

Her nod of agreement made Liu feel even more distressed. She even made a vow in her heart that whenever there were festivals, she would shamelessly go to whoever's family slaughtered a chicken to take the "chicken's gizzard lining".

After storing the processed chicken gizzard lining, the mother and her two sons began to clear the land in the backyard, using a small half to grow vegetables and the rest to grow medicinal herbs.

According to Lin Shiyu's idea, she wanted to plant as many kinds of herbs as possible in the backyard for future use.

Finally, thinking about her family's financial situation, she gave up the idea and planted only coriander.

This herb is easy to grow, and most importantly, it grows very small. In the wild, it is almost always sandwiched between other weeds, making it troublesome to pick. It is better to grow it yourself. You only need to pull out a few weeds from time to time while it grows, and you can just pluck them out when they mature. How cost-effective!

When it comes to medical matters, Mrs. Liu always listens to her daughter and does whatever she wants.

So that day, instead of planting vegetables in the backyard of the third room's new home, they planted what the villagers thought were weeds.

Fortunately, their home is located in a remote area with few people coming and going, so that they would not become the talk of the villagers again.

Few people coming and going?

When Liu thought of this word, she immediately felt something was wrong. Judging from the situation in recent days, there were quite a few people coming and going in their house.

"Boyu, go move all the herbs from the front yard to the back yard to dry."

The herb house in the backyard has not been built yet, and the empty shelves are perfect for drying herbs.

But they couldn’t let other people in the village know that the wild vegetables they picked were herbs. If they knew, they would pull out all the wild grasses in the village.

"Sister Yu, can this really be grown?"

Liu looked at her daughter expectantly. She might be able to hide the truth from others for a while, but not forever. As long as these herbs could be grown and survived, she wouldn't feel so bad about letting others pick them outside.

The aftermath of Mr. Lin’s visit to Lin Anru last time appeared. It was like a thorn that constantly reminded Liu that the matter of selling herbs would be discovered by others sooner or later.

"Maybe, maybe, it can be grown?!"

Lin Shiyu was not sure either, as she had never grown it before. Most of the medicine she had purchased before was purchased. The only reason she knew that this thing was easy to grow was because her grandfather told her!
