Xia Yao's outfit also attracted a lot of people's attention, but when someone asked, Xia Yao pretended to be sad, which made people have to stop the topic.
The second building is on the left side after entering the gate. Xia Yao struggled to hold these things and walked up step by step. The hen struggled in the woven bag and made a "clucking" sound.
Xia Yao quickly apologized to the nearby aunts and said, "This chicken was just caught this morning. If I had known earlier, I would have killed it first and brought it back!"
She apologized and walked up quickly.
Seeing Xia Yao's big bag, several aunts' eyes were almost bloodshot.
Why don't they have such generous relatives?
Even though they are city dwellers, if you really compare them, they are probably not as good as country folk. Everything they have is rationed. It would be fine if they had two jobs, but if there is only one worker in the family... then wouldn't life be the same? It's so tight that sometimes I can't even eat well.
Xia Yao struggled to lift the things to the third floor, panting heavily.
This body is still too weak. She needs to exercise more frequently in the future. Otherwise, what will she do in the future?
According to the residence mentioned by Engineer Tang, we found the Tang family.
She knocked on the door.
"Who?"
A tired male voice sounded, and the door was opened, revealing the sleepy face of Engineer Tang.
When he saw Xia Yao, who was wrapped tightly, he was stunned for a while, but when he touched the pair of exceptionally beautiful peach blossom eyes, he recognized the person.
"It's you!"
"cousin!"
To avoid being suspected, Xia Yao shouted "cousin" to suppress Engineer Tang's words.
"My mother heard that my cousin was pregnant, so she asked me to bring some eggs to help my cousin!" Xia Yao smiled and showed a corner of the basket in his hand.
It was full of eggs. Engineer Tang's breathing quickened. He quickly pulled Xia Yao into the room and closed the door.
"How to sell them?" Engineer Tang stared at these eggs with burning eyes.
He and his wife have been married for many years and finally had this daughter. However, his wife is an advanced maternal age and her roots were damaged when she gave birth to a child, and she needs major repairs.
Although he has the title of senior engineer, everything is rationed. He can't even buy milk powder for his daughter. The milk powder he exchanged with Xia Yao last time was only enough for one month.
Xia Yao smiled and did not answer directly. Instead, he raised the woven bag in his left hand. The chicken inside was still clucking.
"Twenty eggs in total, one old hen, do you want them?"
"Yes!" Engineer Tang asked without thinking, "How much does it cost?"
"An egg costs you six cents, and a hen weighs one pound and six cents. This hen weighs five pounds. Since you are my regular customer, I will charge you a total of ten dollars."
ten bucks? Not expensive at all!
Engineer Tang immediately took out the money and was very happy.
Luo Xuan in the bedroom heard the movement outside and was a little worried: "Tang Rui, what's wrong? Who is here?"
"Yes..." Tang Rui was about to answer when he saw Xia Yao blink at him. He understood and saw a few figures outside the window. What he was about to say was replaced by, "It's my cousin. She's here to see you." .”
With that said, Tang Rui took Xia Yao into the bedroom.
Luo Xuan is still confused. Tang Rui is not a local, so where can he get his cousin? The next moment the door was opened, and Xia Yao, whose face was covered with red sores, appeared in front of her, and she shouted in surprise.
Tang Rui quickly walked to her side and explained today's incident in a low voice.
Unlike Tang Rui's boldness, Luo Xuan frowned when she heard this and looked at Tang Rui uneasily: "This is speculation! If it is discovered, neither you nor I will get anything good!"
Tang Rui didn't expect her to react like this. He opened his mouth, but didn't dare to refute, for fear that Luo Xuan would not have a good confinement period and would have to go to the hospital again.
Xia Yao moved a chair casually and sat across from Luo Xuan.
She put her hand on Luo Xuan's wrist familiarly: "I know some medical skills, can I show you?"
"What are you doing? You..."
"You suffered a heavy hemorrhage when you gave birth to your child, and now your body is very weak." Xia Yao said quietly, "Although the medicine you are taking now is cheap, it has no effect. In the final analysis, your body is still too weak and your qi and blood are insufficient. If you want to replenish qi and blood, you can either spend a lot of money to buy old ginseng and brew it as a tonic, or you can take food supplements."
On Luo Xuan's face, anger was replaced by surprise.
She couldn't believe what she was hearing.
"You...what did you say?"
Xia Yao's words were no different from what the doctor at the hospital said.
A good ginseng cost 600 to 700, and buying one would cost a lot of money. But she didn't even have the money to buy such an expensive ginseng. She had been crying since she gave birth to her child, seeing her own ginseng. The body becomes weaker every day.
She almost gave up, and of course she didn't want to watch Tang Rui spend money on herself again.
"I told you, I have some medical skills." Xia Yao replied calmly, "I can give you a medicinal formula to nourish your body. Although it won't work quickly, as long as you persist, you can slowly make up for the lost energy and blood. .”
Luo Xuan looked at Xia Yao in surprise. Although Xia Yao's face was covered with red sores and she couldn't see Xia Yao's true appearance, she could tell that Xia Yao was a very young girl.
What good advice can such a young person have?
"Didn't the doctor tell you? You can slowly heal your body through dietary supplements."
Luo Xuan was stunned, as if the doctor had said so.
Tang Rui said excitedly: "The doctor said! It's best to eat more meat!"
But they are not a wealthy family in the city. They only have two pounds of meat stamps every month. How can they eat so much meat? The two of them only thought about buying ginseng and had long forgotten about it.
"Yes, eat more meat." Xia Yao nodded, "It's best to use beef or mutton. If not, use this recipe to stew some chicken soup or tube bone soup, which will also be effective."
"Use your pen." Xia Yao said to the couple who were still stunned, lowered his head and scribbled down a medicinal recipe.
Tang Rui and Luo Xuan stared at Xia Yao dumbfounded. Before they could speak, Xia Yao had already handed them the prescription.
"Just think of it as a gift for buying my stuff."
After hearing Xia Yao's words, the two of them came back to their senses.
There was still doubt in Luo Xuan's eyes, but she was no longer as wary of Xia Yao as before. As for this prescription... She thought about taking it to the hospital and showing it to the doctor to know whether it was good or bad.
To her, Xia Yao now is a steady supply of eggs in the future.
She smiled at Xia Yao: "Thank you..."
"My surname is Qin." Xia Yao's face didn't turn red and his heart didn't beat.
"Thank you, Comrade Qin." Luo Xuan said this, a little embarrassed, "I just don't know... can you send me some eggs and hens regularly in the future?"
"Don't worry, we will never mistreat you in terms of money." Luo Xuan hurriedly added, "You know, we have to buy tickets for everything in the city. We only have two kilograms of meat tickets every month. It's basically It’s not enough, our Xiaoxin hasn’t had a sip of milk yet, so I was thinking...if you come to the city in the future, could you bring us some of your own eggs and hens?"
Speaking of this, she hastily added: "It doesn't matter if it's chicken, any kind of meat will do."
"Okay." Xia Yao was very happy.
Just when Luo Xuan was secretly happy, Xia Yao reminded her again: "But I will say something ugly first. This matter must be kept secret. If someone finds out... I'm okay, I'm just a country boy. Son, you don’t know where I am from, but you are different..."
"I know!" Luo Xuan nodded quickly, "From now on, you will be Tang Rui's cousin in the countryside! We are all relatives. Relatives come and go to get some things. How can they still report us?"
Xia Yao was very satisfied with Luo Xuan's awareness of current affairs. She nodded: "You are suffering from metrorrhagia now. I believe the doctor must have prescribed medicine for you. You must not only take the medicine according to the prescription, but also supplement your nutrition." , I will come to the city again in a week."
Luo Xuan kept nodding. Xia Yao's words were not much different from what the doctor said.
Tang Rui had already taken the money. Xia Yao counted it and found that there were five yuan more.
She raised an eyebrow.
Tang Rui was still feeling guilty for doubting Xia Yao just now, and now he smiled sheepishly: "The remaining five yuan will be used as a deposit. I hope my cousin can find more hens for us in the countryside."
He didn't dare to think about things like beef and mutton, but if he could eat chicken twice a month...
Xia Yao could see what Tang Rui was thinking at a glance, and she took the money readily: "Don't worry, come over next week and I will bring you meat."
Regardless of whether it was chicken or pork, she immediately thought of a person.
Xia Yao suppressed the rising corners of his mouth and waved to Tang Rui and Luo Xuan: "There are only a few hens in each household. They may not be available all the time, but as for other meat... are pheasants and rabbits okay?"
"Okay, okay!" Tang Rui nodded quickly.
Xia Yao held the fifteen yuan in his hand and was in a good mood. He packed the woven bag and said goodbye to the two of them.
As expected, as soon as she left the Tang family's door, she was immediately stopped by the Tang family's neighbors.
"Sister, do you still have eggs at home? Do we want to change them too?" An older sister stopped Xia Yao, her eyes full of longing.
Meat, who doesn’t want to eat it?
There is also the lively and hopping hen, you can tell it is a good chicken at a glance!
Listening to what these people said, Xia Yao's face was full of panic. She covered her face and kept shaking her head: "No! No more! We don't do these things! Stop asking!"
After saying that, she hurried out.
Several eldest sisters were still following Xia Yao, and they all asked about this matter, and Xia Yao ran away quickly.
After walking out of the family home, the panic on Xia Yao's face had long since disappeared. She held the fifteen yuan in her hand and suppressed the excitement in her heart. This money is indeed easy to earn, and she also got a lot of potential customers today!
It’s just a medicinal meal, so it’s really good to give it out!
