Burden (2)

"Thank you, Xiaoxiao, how much are these two bones?" Liu Ermei asked Lu Xiaoxiao after taking the bones that Lu Xiaoxiao handed her.

"You give me fifty cents."

"So cheap." Liu Ermei looked at the two big bones in her hands and said in disbelief.

"Bought from an acquaintance at cost price."

After Liu Ermei heard Lu Xiaoxiao's words, she knew where Lu Xiaoxiao bought the bones, so she felt even more grateful to Lu Xiaoxiao.

"I'm going to get the money for you now."

"Don't worry about money. I'll teach you how to cook medicinal food now."

"good."

Lu Xiaoxiao spent more than half an hour teaching Liu Ermei how to cook herbal meals. Then she left the medicinal materials for Liu Ermei for a month and went home.

"Second sister, what are you cooking? Why is there such a strong smell of medicine?" Mrs. Liu smelled a strong smell of medicine as soon as she approached the yard, so she asked Ermei Liu.

"I'm cooking medicinal food for Xiaozhi to treat his hidden wounds."

"Xiaoxiao came home today?"

"Yes, she came to check Xiaozhi's pulse and taught me how to cook medicinal food."

"Do you want me to cook it?" Mrs. Liu asked Liu Ermei when she walked into the kitchen and saw two pieces of cloth blocked in Liu Ermei's nose.

"No, the medicinal meal is almost ready. You go take a shower first, and you can eat when dad comes back."

"good."

"Second sister, who is sick in the family?" Liu Pingjiang smelled the smell of Chinese medicine when he got home from get off work. He thought it was someone in the family who was sick, so he immediately walked into the kitchen and asked Liu Ermei.

"No one is sick. This is a medicinal meal cooked for Xiaozhi. Because it contains Chinese medicine, it has a strong medicinal smell."

"That's it. I thought someone in the family was sick just now."

"Dad, go wash your hands quickly and you can eat."

"good."

After Liu Ermei brought all the dishes to the table, she looked at Xiaozhi and said, "Xiaozhi, my sister has cooked a medicinal meal for you. Can you drink a bowl?"

Liu Zhi nodded after hearing what Liu Ermei said. He had heard the conversation between his eldest sister and his uncle and aunt just now, so no matter what the medicinal food cooked by his eldest sister was, he would drink it.

"Sister, are you sure this dark soup is okay to drink?" Liu Simei frowned and asked Liu Ermei when she saw Liu Ermei put a bowl of dark soup in front of Liu Zhi.

"Of course you can drink it. This soup is made from pig bones and Chinese medicine. Xiaozhi drinking it is good for his health."

Liu Zhi was actually thinking about whether he could drink the bowl of dark soup in front of him. He has never drank Chinese medicine, and naturally he has never seen what Chinese medicine looks like.

However, he had heard many people say that Chinese medicine was very bitter and hard to drink, so the Chinese medicine should be dark like this. The medicinal meal Liu Ermei cooked for him should be drinkable.

"Xiao Zhi, what are you thinking about? Xiao Xiao said that medicinal food should be drunk while it is hot to be effective, so drink it quickly so that your body can get better."

After Liu Zhi heard what Liu Ermei said, he picked up a spoon and took a spoonful of soup, and then drank the spoonful of soup under the watchful eyes of the people at the table.

"How is it? Can you drink the soup?" Liu Simei asked Liu Zhi.

"You can drink it, but it's a bit bitter."

"Good medicine is bitter and good for the disease, so it is right to be bitter. Xiaoxiao said that as long as you insist on drinking the medicinal diet for three months, all the hidden wounds in your body will be healed."
