"Uncle Lu, your family has already stewed the meat, why are you letting the little bastard dig wild vegetables?"

Banggeng looked very angry, as he couldn't understand why some people liked to eat wild vegetables but not meat.

"Bang Geng, what does this have to do with you? Uncle Lu can get whatever he wants. Don't force me to slap you." The little bastard looked ferocious.

Lu Donglin is a good man. He is the only one who is willing to collect these useless wild vegetables so that these orphans without parents can have a full meal. Banggeng wants to cut off his brothers' livelihood, but the little bastard refuses to agree no matter what.

"Why do you call me Uncle Lu? This is my Uncle Lu, do you still have any shame?" Bang Geng stomped his feet in anger and cursed at the little bastard.

Seeing the two little brats fighting for attention, Lu Donglin slapped Banggeng on the back of his head, "Alright, Banggeng, go play somewhere else, you little bastard, come in."

Bang Geng grinned and showed a smug smile to the little bastard. Uncle Lu only beat him and not the little bastard, which was a sign of his closeness to him.

Banggeng ran home happily. He had to go see what delicious food was being cooked at home today and bring something good for Uncle Lu. Such a powerful Uncle Lu belonged to him, Banggeng, and the little bastard couldn't snatch him away!

Sha Zhu was cooking in the kitchen, so Lu Donglin took the little bastard to his room.

I exchanged the grass that was a mixture of wild vegetables and medicinal herbs for a bag of millet.

"Go ahead, and remember, don't tell anyone else anything."

"Also, I have a book here that you can read. When you dig wild vegetables next time, try to follow the instructions in it."

Lu Donglin handed a booklet to the little bastard. This was the booklet he prepared for teaching, so he could give a copy to the little bastard first.

The little bastard casually opened the booklet and was attracted by the tiny plants inside.

"Uncle Lu, I think I've seen this before."

"Well, this is called mugwort. It's most medicinal during the Dragon Boat Festival, but you can pick the leaves at other times. If you come across it, you can pick some."

"and this,"

"This is Rhizoma Cyperi, also a Chinese herbal medicine with some magical uses."

The little bastard was so happy when he saw several kinds of grass that he had seen before.

He quickly and carefully put the booklet away.

"Uncle Lu, I've heard from them that you are a very good doctor. Don't worry, I will keep this well and will never let anyone else know."

Tsk, this little guy actually has a strong sense of confidentiality.

Lu Donglin waved his hand, took out a handful of candy and stuffed it into the little bastard's hands, "Go ahead."

Although Lu Donglin has milk candies, the little bastards are orphans after all. If people knew that they had milk candies, it would bring disaster to them.

After the little bastard left, Lu Donglin also left the compound and went to the street office to find his brother-in-law.

The street office has been sending people over one after another during this period. Lu Donglin feels that the time is about right and plans to tell them the good news today.

Sure enough, as soon as Lu Donglin arrived at the street office, he received a warm welcome.

Some people gave up their seats, and some people served tea and water without stopping. This scared the common people who came to do business. They thought that some big shot had come to this small street office.

When they saw clearly that it was Lu Donglin, everyone felt relieved.

Who in this area doesn't know about Lu Xiaosheng's unique acupuncture skills?

The person who came to do business not only did not urge him, but instead ran over to greet Lu Donglin and try to get close to him. It was the arrival of Zhang Jianshe that rescued Lu Donglin.

"Why are you here, kid?"

"I just want to support your work, don't I?"

"But there are no empty houses in the neighborhood office compound. I did find a place. Although it's a bit shabby, it's definitely okay to teach a class there as long as I can rest there."

"Oh? There is such a good place? Tell me about it."

When Lu Donglin told Zhang Jianshe the address of the courtyard where the little bastard lived, he wrote it down. "It's too late today. I'll go check it out tomorrow. But this place is out of this area. How did you find it?"

"This matter is actually about a child in our courtyard..." Lu Donglin simply explained the matter. After knowing that the place was where a group of orphans lived, Zhang Jianshe made the decision directly, "Don't worry, I will go there tomorrow and I will definitely take care of this matter."

After Sha Zhu finished cooking, he went back to the house. He first changed into clean clothes, thought for a while, took out his leather shoes and put them on his feet.

She faced the mirror, combed her hair back with water, nodded in satisfaction at herself, and then went out.

"Hey, Shazhu, you look so good, where are you going?" Xu Damao just entered the central courtyard and saw Shazhu's appearance, his eyes rolled.

"Xu Damao, do you know how to speak? What does it have to do with you where I go?" Sha Zhu looked at Jia Zhang, who was sitting at the door of Jia's house sewing shoe soles, with a guilty look on his face, and then hurried out.

"There's something wrong with this Shazhu." Jia Zhang frowned as she looked at Shazhu's back.

"Aunt Zhang, look at Sha Zhu's showy appearance, is he going to do something bad?"

Xu Damao came up to Jia Zhangshi and said, "This guy walks around in his clothes covered in oil smoke all day long. When has he ever cleaned himself up?"

"Xu Damao, Shazhu is a good-for-nothing, and you are not a good person either. Don't think I don't know why you appeared in the central courtyard yesterday." Jia Zhang squinted her eyes, and the fat on her face made it seem like she was not someone who could be messed with.

Xu Damao chuckled. He wanted to eavesdrop on what was happening next to the wall, but he certainly couldn't tell Jia Zhang about this.

"Aunt, you misunderstood. I just got up to go to the bathroom. Besides, if it wasn't for me, your Dongxu would be in trouble. He couldn't even find the culprit."

……

When Shazhu went out, he saw Banggen playing at the gate of the yard.

"Banggeng, come here!" Shazhu waved at Banggeng.

"Shazhu, what do you want me to do?" Banggeng came over reluctantly.

"Bang Geng, I'll give you one dollar and ask your grandma to buy you some meat. Do you want to go?"

Looking at the one dollar in Shazhu's hand, Banggeng licked his lips.

Even though he had just eaten roast duck yesterday, who could complain about having too much meat?

"Shazhu, do you think I'm stupid? There's no meat in the supply and marketing cooperative right now. Meat in the pigeon market is very expensive. One dollar can't even buy a piece the size of a palm. I want to eat a lot and grow strong."

Shazhu bared his teeth.

This little bastard still knows how to negotiate conditions.

"Okay, I'll give you two pieces. Go quickly, or there will be no meat left if you're late."

In order to get married, Sha Zhu really gave it his all.

Bang Geng happily took the money and ran to the yard, "Grandma, I want to eat meat."

"That big fool Shazhu gave me a dollar. Go buy me some meat. I want to eat meat..." Banggeng hugged Jia Zhang and acted like a spoiled child. Jia Zhang couldn't resist. She cried out "Oh, my dear" twice, "Okay, grandma will buy it for you."

Her eldest grandson has been really smart since he was young. Now he knows how to ask Shazhu for money.

Shazhu harmed her Dongxu, so it is only right that the money should be used to buy them meat.

Jia Zhang put away her needlework and went into the house. "Tao'er, I'll go get some good things. You can cook dinner after you clean up the house."

A daughter-in-law has to be ordered around. So what if she is the eldest daughter of a capitalist? After marrying into the Jia family, doesn’t she have to listen to her?

Jia Zhang took a scarf and hurried out.

Bai Tao was still holding the rag in her hand, "Bang Geng, come here, your new mother will teach you how to play with the tin frog."

You want to leave the cooking and cleaning work to her? You're dreaming.

"Okay." Banggeng was very happy. He hadn't yet fully understood the Tin Frog. Once he got the hang of it, he would show it off in the yard.
