Meng Ning saw that Meng Li was not as serious as before, so he had no objection.
Following her guidance, Wang Langzhong went to the yard next door.
The noise in the yard finally calmed down, and the villagers dispersed after saying a few words of concern.
Meng Wu disagreed and said: "Sister, let Wang Langzhong prescribe the medicine first, and I can boil the medicine at home and deliver it to you."
Meng Li said to him mysteriously: "Brother, I saw that the herbs Wang Langzhong was going to prepare are on the hilltop nearby. Why don't I go up to the mountain and pick some back up? Won't I save a couple of silvers?"
Leave this task to the younger sister so that she doesn't have to carry such a large load of firewood. When she comes back tomorrow, let Lu Mu go up the mountain to collect firewood.
"But during this period, I can't guarantee that you won't get sick." Meng Wu was still worried.
"Brother, I know my health well. Seeing the bad guys being punished, my mood is much more stable now." Meng Li smiled at him, her face returned to normal and her eyes were clear.
Meng Wu couldn't help but be stunned when he thought of his elder sister's attack just now, thinking to himself, how could she get better so quickly?
Meng Yao said: "Sister, please tell me the medicinal herbs quickly, and I will go to the mountain right away. This way we can have medicine and save a couple of silver."
Meng Li told her the herbs. She saw that Wang Langzhong had actually prepared them, but he didn't take them out because he had no intention of treating them.
What happened just now has been bothering me for half the morning, and now the yard is finally quiet.
Everyone in the second room of the Meng family is busy with their own affairs.
Lu Mutian got up before dawn and drove the oxen to plow the fields. He gave ten coins to Meng Wu.
"My eldest sister is not in a good condition. Take good care of her and make sure she is always in your sight." Meng Wu said.
He knew that even if it were him, he would not be so vigilant at ordinary times. Children in the village often go to the mountains, or go down to the river alone, or they don't come back from other houses for a day or two, pushing wheelchairs to relax near home. No one would have thought of it. There will be danger.
But by coincidence, things just happen, so everyone needs to be careful.
Lu Mu agreed.
Meng Ning checked the kitchen carefully. The meat and vegetables were placed in the deep well. As for the rice and noodles, they were placed in the firewood pile in the corner of the kitchen and were disguised. Even the windows in the house were broken. If a thief came in, these Food can easily be stolen.
"Everyone, wait a moment."
Meng Yao took out a few buns from the kitchen. These buns were given to her eldest sister by the villagers yesterday. When she got up, she put them in the pot to re-steam them. She was busy with things in the yard just now and thought they were almost steamed. So she went in to watch the fire. It had been extinguished long ago and the temperature of the buns was just right.
She didn't know what the filling was inside, so she handed one out randomly.
Lu Mu opened his bun slightly and found that it was filled with meat filling, while Meng Li's bun was filled with vegetable filling.
He handed the meat bun to her.
"You can eat it." Meng Li said, taking a bite of the vegetarian bun.
Lu Mu still put the meat bun into her hand, and then took the vegetarian bun.
Over there, Meng Wu also discovered that his buns were meat buns, and he wanted to exchange them with his little sister's.
The little girl was so happy that her eyes turned into crescent moons.
Although it was just steamed buns, everyone was satisfied with each bite.
Meng Li took the bun and watched Lu Mu finish the bun in three or four times. One thing came to her mind.
If two people drink a bottle of water together, is it considered an indirect kiss?
"Why don't you eat?" Lu Mu asked.
"Oh." Meng Li thought what she wanted to do, so she started biting it one bite at a time.
The world I came from was full of technology and I found this kind of steamed stuffed buns to be very authentic.
Of course, one bun is not enough, especially for a few grown men. After eating it, they just feel a little relieved.
Meng Yao said: "I was going to make egg pancakes for everyone, but who knew someone would come over to make trouble? I'll make them for everyone tomorrow."
Meng Ning touched the little sister's head: "It doesn't matter, I'm full now. The buns given by the villagers are so big that I almost burp."
As he spoke, he pretended to burp, making everyone laugh.
In the past, everyone would always laugh a little sadly, but it is different now. They can really make egg pancakes at home, and they have some spare money on hand again.
Meng Wu was going to the street, but Meng Li called out to him.
"Brother, if you eat a bowl of noodles on the street and then go to the grocery store, our family won't save money."
Meng Wu was a man of steel, his eyes were a little hot.
Still, he wouldn't waste the money.
Meng Li knew what her eldest brother was thinking, and said, "I am also thinking about this family. If my eldest brother is uncontrollably injured and has to pay more medical expenses, then our family should not save money."
Meng Wu thought about it for a moment: "Okay, I will listen to my eldest sister."
Then everyone went about their business, and the couple left last. Lu Mu carried the basket on his back, locked the courtyard door, put the key in the place where it usually was blocked, and then pushed the wheelchair to the east end of the village.
Meng Li was very satisfied with his amazing assist just now, but she also thought, what if Lu Mu was telling the truth?
"Lu Mu, did I really have a nightmare last night?"
"No." Lu Mu answered affirmatively.
Meng Li snickered: "Then how do you keep your face straight and your heart not beat when you lie?"
"I am your husband, this is my responsibility."
Meng Li rolled her eyes, she was really an emotionless NPC.
There is still quite a distance from the Lu family to the east. I heard about what happened in the yard of the second room of the Meng family. When passing by, some villagers came out to see how Meng Li was doing. Except for one or two households, they were watching the fun with a sarcastic attitude. , others are genuinely concerned about a few words.
Some people still wanted to give things away. This time Lu Mu learned from experience and pushed the wheelchair to hide faster and refused to accept them.
However, Meng Li still sent the due thanks.
She heard the villagers passing by her house discuss that although the climate here is good and the farmland is good, the court imposes heavy taxes. After paying taxes, many families only have food rations, and they tighten their belts to live, so how can she take advantage of the villagers? their stuff.
Lu Cheng looked at the young couple from a distance and set off a string of firecrackers, adding a festive flavor to the air.
"Brother and sister-in-law, you are back."
While he was looking at Meng Li, he felt like he was about to cry. If something hadn't happened suddenly at home, why would he have sent his eldest brother to Meng Li as a wedding gift?
Meng Li's appearance is not good-looking at all. From a foreign minister's point of view, she is not worthy of her eldest brother. Her family is poor and she has problems with her legs and feet, so her eldest brother will have to work hard.
However, Lu Cheng didn't show this emotion on his face. He didn't have any malice, he just felt sorry for his elder brother.
"Where's dad?" Lu Mu asked.
Lu Cheng's face suddenly felt uncomfortable: "Dad is in the living room, there are guests."
Father Lu came out with an embarrassed look on his face: "You guys go sit in the east room first, and I'll discuss things with the guests."
As he spoke, he helped Lu Mu remove the backpack. When he saw the contents inside, Dad Lu was stunned for a moment.
It's not easy for the Meng family's orphans, but the preparations for returning home are so heavy. I'm afraid all their savings will be spent on it. The wealthier families in the village are reluctant to take out these good things to return home.
"It's good when you come back. It doesn't have to be so grand. You have to live your life in the Meng family." Although Father Lu said this, his tone was much softer.
Meng Li wondered whether there were any valuable guests? I glanced into the living room and saw a familiar face.
It was the girl who stopped them on the road yesterday, and a middle-aged man and woman were sitting next to her.
