Rebirth: Don't Be the Best

A bamboo chicken and wild vegetables in the earthen pot are steaming, and two bamboo chickens are roasting on the fire grill.

Zhang Shu evenly sprinkled the seasoning he brought on it, and with a sizzling sound, Dabao immediately took a sip of saliva. Seeing everyone looking at him, he shyly buried his head in his father's arms, causing everyone to laugh.

After it was baked, Zhang Shu tore a chicken leg first and handed it to Dabao. Dabao said thank you, Uncle Zhang, and then wrapped it in leaves and put it on a stone to cool.

Zhang Shu handed the other leg to Li Mujin, he can't eat more, just eat one leg.

The other two legs, Zhang Shu, were given to He Yue and Yu Xiaoliu, so that, except for him and Laiwang, everyone else got chicken legs.

Li Mujin gave Zhang Shu a bite of his own, and then tore a wing from it for Zhang Shu.He Yue also had a tacit understanding, and the husband and wife were very affectionate.

Yu Xiaoliu hugged Xiaobao with a bitter face, "Fortunately there is Xiaobao, otherwise what would uncle do!"

……

When I went back, I put Meirenlei under the basket, and on it were the sweeter peaches that I picked.

Dabao took his father's hand and walked slowly, because everyone except Li Mujin was carrying things on their backs, so naturally it was impossible to carry him on their backs.

He was also sensible and didn't make any noise, just followed silently. Fortunately, Li Mujin often took a rest, so he wasn't too tired.

After returning home, they gathered together in Zhang's yard, first poured the peaches into the big basin, and then poured out the beauty's tears.

Zhang Shu picked a sea bowl, all of which were the best ones.Yu Xiaoliu and Laiwang picked more, but the color looks very mixed, there are big ones and black spots.

"Brother Zhang Shu, how do you eat this? Do you chew it dry?" Yu Xiaoliu took one and stuffed it into his mouth tentatively, and then found that it was not tasty at all.

"Stupid you, can this be eaten like this?" Laiwang patted his head, "Brother Ashu, is this fried and eaten?"

"Brother!" Yu Xiaoliu cried out sadly, "My brother is watching, this is how you usually bully me!"

He Yue smiled, "Don't hit Xiaoliu next time, be careful that you won't be able to marry a wife if you are stupid, so what should you do?"

Everyone laughed, and Yu Xiaoliu blushed, "You two team up to bully people!"

"How can this be called bullying you? This is obviously for your sake. Haha, Brother Ashu, tell us how to eat this. I will make a bowl for my brother later." He Yue said, It made everyone laugh again.

Zhang Shu said, "Pick out a few grains of this thing," he said, and took four or five grains and put them in his hands for everyone to see, "then soak in water for four or five hours, remember to change the water frequently, soak When it becomes soft, it becomes very large, and then eat it with some rock sugar and stew it in water, and rich people can also stew it with white fungus or bird's nest." Zhang Shu tried hard to remember how to eat this thing.

"Swallow's nest? Swallow's nest? This is convenient. There is a nest of swallows under the eaves of my old house. Let's have a fresh meal together tomorrow."

As soon as Yu Xiaoliu got excited, he immediately picked up the conversation.

Yes, rock sugar and white fungus are all good things, but this bird's nest is cheap, and every household in the countryside has it on the beams of houses.

"Uh, this one shouldn't be..." Zhang Shu had never touched a bird's nest in his previous life, but he felt that this bird's nest must not be that bird's nest.

"What kind of swallow is that? Wild goose?" Wild goose nests are hard to find in the mountains. No wonder wild goose nests are so expensive!

"Maybe..." Zhang Shu felt that Dayan should be able to say it.After a trip to Nanhai County, he knew that the shark's fin was not a fishbone, but he really didn't know about the bird's nest.

"Don't stay in this bird's nest, bird's nest, even the eagle's nest doesn't taste good, I think rock candy or tremella are more reliable."

Li Mujin also nodded. After all, he knew all of this. What if those whores eat their stomachs badly?

"By the way, if you can't finish it at home, you can take it to the pharmacy to sell it first. The price is quite high. Anyway, don't sell it if it is less than [-] yuan, but you have to pick it. You can't buy it with black spots like this. It’s okay to keep it at home.”

While talking, Zhang Shu picked out some from Yu Xiaoliu's bowl.Others followed suit and picked out the bad ones and put them elsewhere.

Dabao looked at everyone, and then went to move a small bench over, and put a bench under each person's buttocks.Sitting on the armchair, Li Mujin called him to her side, then hugged him and ate cakes together while watching them work.

Yu Xiaoliu picked out the ones that were obviously not enough for a catty, and Laiwang picked out ones that were still more than a catty. The two took the bad ones back and put the good ones at Zhang Shu's house, and agreed to sell them tomorrow morning.

The next day, Zhang Shu took Yu Xiaoliu and Laiwang to the pharmacy in the town. First, he could ask the doctor, and second, he could see if Zhou Nan's father was there.

Zhang Shu had come to look for him last time, and happened to miss him. This time it shouldn't be such a coincidence.

"Doctor Yang is well." Zhang Shu yelled as soon as he entered the door, and then he was pleasantly surprised to see that Father Zhou was there.

There was no one to see a doctor early in the morning. Dr. Yang looked at the three of them and found no one who seemed unwell, so he said, "I'm here for an early morning pastime? If you have something to talk about, don't disturb my treatment if you have nothing to do." .”

"Doctor Yang, look at what you said, I can easily come here to disturb you if I have nothing to do?" Zhang Shu is familiar with him, and also knows the character of this little old man, "I have something good to send to you."

"Could it be that you dug ginseng, polygoni multiflora and Ganoderma lucidum on the mountain and sold it to me?" Dr. Yang stroked his beard and laughed.

There are a lot of common herbs in their place, but no one has ever dug these things in the mountains, and he rarely came in from the outside. It would be a good thing if they could dig them.

"We don't have that luck. We just picked some beauties from the mountain and shed tears. I want to see if you will accept them."

"Bring it here and let me have a look." What beauty tears?

Zhang Shu opened Yu Xiaoliu's tears of beauty wrapped in cloth and placed them in front of Dr. Yang. Dr. Yang was taken aback for a moment, then smiled, "Isn't this just peach gum? What's the use of such a weird name? You're not a scholar." , but also cling to elegance."

Zhang Shu originally thought that Beauty's Tears was its name, but he didn't expect its name to be so simple. However, if it was called like this, wouldn't everyone know that it came from the peach tree?No wonder the name was changed.

"Then how about our peach gum?"

"It's big and yellow in color, crystal clear and free of impurities, it can be called top grade." Dr. Yang shook his head and uttered praises.Peach gum like this must have been grown on some old peach trees.

"Then how much do you think a catty is suitable?"

"Why, you kid want to sell it to me?" Dr. Yang asked him while leaning on him.

"Of course, what else would I do from so far away?" Zhang Shu said frankly.

"This peach gum can cure stone stranguria, bloody stranguria, and dysentery, and it is also useful. How about it, you can give me a couple of taels first, I still have some in stock."

When Zhang Shu heard that this was not acceptable, he only charged two taels, so they had no choice but to go to other places, what a bother.

"Doctor Yang, didn't you tell the whole story? Can't this peach gum be used as a tonic?"

"Am I a doctor or are you a doctor? The function of this peach gum is said in medical books. It is the most fluid in the body, and it can cure bloody stranguria and stone stranguria. Acne black pits, use Bisheng ointment, you are a pair, what can I say? Wrong?" Dr. Yang narrowed his eyes and stared at Zhang Shu unkindly, someone challenged him in terms of his expertise, do you think he can't impress people?

"You are really wrong. It doesn't mean that it is the most fluid, but it means that it can replenish water vapor to the human body. The face of ordinary people is dry, and it looks so good if it is full of water."

"Besides, acne and black spots, that is, those with acne on the face and blackening, can be cured. If you are in need, ladies, buy some and stew with rock sugar or white fungus bird's nest, eat well Doesn’t it appear that you are skilled in medicine?”

"You kid is used to talking nonsense, can medicine be taken indiscriminately?" Doctor Yang said so, but his heart is obviously loose. He used to only pay attention to the medicinal use of peach gum, and never thought it would have this effect , this peach gum can be eaten by everyone except those with cold constitution, pregnant urchins, and people who are choking on food, but it is somewhat different from other medicines.

"How much peach gum do you have here? According to the purchase price of medicinal materials, a catty of peach gum is about seventy Wenwen. How about it? Are you selling it?"

"Sell, of course!" Yu Xiaoliu and Lai Wang were very excited when they heard that, they got so much in just one morning, it was nothing.

They took out the peach gum and weighed it, and then settled the money, because it was for nothing, so they said they went out to buy something and went home for the old and the young to eat together. Zhang Shu said that he would wait for them here, so he let them went.

He talked to Dr. Yang, and went into the backyard to find Zhou's father. When Zhou Nan and Li Yan's good news was approaching, Zhou's father was very happy and worried, so he asked, "Does the Li family know the situation of my Zhou family?" ?”

"Old man, don't worry, the Li family knows everything about it, and wealth doesn't mean anything, and my uncle said that you are only Zhou Nan's child, and they will definitely take care of you in the future."

Zhou's father burst into tears, he was the one who delayed the child, and thought that Ah Nan would marry in the poor mountains and suffer hardships, but he did not expect him to be so lucky!He had also heard about the Li family, but there were still many things he didn't understand, so he asked Zhang Shu to clarify one by one, and Zhang Shu knew everything, so he explained everything clearly.

The two talked for a long time before Zhou's father was completely relieved. He had to work harder to dig herbs. Among other things, at least one silver hairpin had to be brought by Ah Nan. It is also for discussion.

Zhang Shu spent a lot of time talking, and went to the front hall to drink some water. It happened that Doctor Yang was receiving a female guest, so he stopped and listened.

"...Your body belongs to fire, and your yang energy is rising, which makes your face covered with acne, which is hard to get rid of for a while. The prescriptions I usually give you can only be suppressed for a while, and it will recur after a while. Repeatedly, It's really uncomfortable."

"That's right, doctor, because of this day and night, my lady can't sleep all night. You can find a way to get rid of this!" There is actually the will to die alone.

"Hey... It's also fate. I just received a few catties of beautiful tears today. This thing is very beneficial to women, especially for people with black acne. It can also clear the body fluid and quench thirst, relieve fire and relieve dryness."

As soon as she heard that this thing called beauty's tears, the young lady was tempted, and when she heard that it could heal her face, she cared even more, and frequently winked at her maid.

"My lady wants to buy some, how much is a catty?"

"This is not sold by the catty, but by the tael. It costs one to twenty-five cents. Each time you only need three to five pills, and soak it in water for four to five hours..."

Zhang Shu listened to what Dr. Yang had just said and passed it on. The master and servant he said nodded repeatedly. The price doubled at once!

In terms of doing business, he really is not as good as these old guys!
