He had nothing to be surprised about.
In other families, the elder sister takes the younger sister to do things, but in the Shen family, the youngest girl runs around guiding the sisters to cook and cook.
If it were someone else, Shengze would still be surprised, but he heard and saw Shen Qingqian talking and doing things several times, and he intuitively felt that this girl was different from other girls.
The medicine has been boiled, but because there is no bucket, Shen Qingqian can only collect the water bags from the family and put the medicine in, thinking that when everyone comes back later, she can go to the cliff caves to deliver the medicine.
Now that the fire is on, the family has not had hot rice for several days. The food Li Laosan just sent contained a small amount of rice and some yellow rice. Shen Qingqian thought of cooking it together, and also took the opportunity to let the sisters at home. Everyone learns how to make rice into rice.
Shen Qingqian raised her eyes inadvertently, and happened to meet Shengze's eyes. Then she remembered that Cheng San was going to live with them.
Looking at Sheng Ze and then at the rice that had just fallen into the pot, Shen Qingqian reluctantly opened the rice bag and grabbed two handfuls of rice.
"Third sister, don't add firewood yet. I'm short on rice. I have to pick some more and buy some." Shen Qingqian lowered her head and skillfully selected the old rice of unknown year, and said to Shen Qingxiao behind the stove.
As prisoners of war, it would be nice for them to have old rice to eat. However, old rice is mixed with some impurities such as rice bran and stones, so they must be carefully selected before putting it into the pot.
When Shengze heard her words, the corners of his lips curled up slightly.
By the time Shen Qingqian finished cooking the porridge, the sky outside had already darkened.
Ordinary people in this era mostly only eat two meals a day. In the past, they would eat three meals when they were on the road because they needed to replenish their energy.
In today's situation, we definitely couldn't eat three meals, so at noon everyone just took a few bites of dry food and continued working.
It was getting late, and those who had gone out to look for firewood and food were returning one after another.
Sister Shen Qingqian took out the porridge and let it cool.
"Brother, take these and share them with everyone." Shen Qingqian handed Shen Xiao a water bag.
Shen Xiao had just come back from outside. Hearing this, he quickly stood up again and asked Shen Jun and the others to come with him.
When he went out, he met Sheng Ze and Ling Yun at the entrance of the cave. He paused and extended his hand to Sheng Ze, "Cheng San, where are your water bags and bowls?"
Almost everyone in this exile team has a water bag, but the bowl is distributed by the commissary. Each person has one, and they are responsible for keeping it. If they are lost or broken, they have to be responsible for themselves.
Shengze took off the water bag from his waist and handed it over, "Brother Shen, is it useful?"
His water bladder was empty, so it was convenient to use.
Shen Xiao poured the medicine into Shengze's water bag and said, "This is the medicine prepared by Sixth Sister to prevent wind and cold. Our family members have all taken it and it is quite effective. You should drink some too."
While speaking, he had already handed the water bag to Shengze again.
Ling Yun heard this and asked quickly, "Does Miss Shen Liu know medical skills?"
Shengze also wanted to know.
Shen Xiao smiled and shook his head, "I have never learned medical skills. I just recognize a few medicinal materials and saw a few prescriptions in books."
He said this modestly, but Ling Yun clearly saw that he straightened up unconsciously.
"Sixth girl really has wisdom." Ling Yun took advantage of the situation and praised.
Shen Xiao smiled, let them go in to prepare for dinner, and then went out to deliver medicine.
Shengze opened the water bag and sniffed it, raising his eyebrows. This medicine was indeed a good thing, but... was it really made by the sixth girl of the Shen family?
Others did not have Sheng Ze's doubts. It didn't take long for word to spread across several cliff caves that Miss Shen Liu was such a good person. She even prepared medicine to prevent colds for them.
Moreover, many people stopped sneezing and runny noses after taking the medicine, so everyone became more convinced of Shen Qingqian's medicine and praised her to the sky for a while.
When Shen Yong came back, she held a bunch of small things in her hands and said happily to Shen Qingqian: "Sixth sister, now you are famous. Everyone asked us to thank you!"
