Chu Yue hurriedly pulled Lu Yufang to the bamboo sieve that was drying in the courtyard at home, and taught her to recognize the medicinal materials in the bamboo sieve.
"I only have these medicinal materials at home, so I can only teach you so much. I will tell you when I pick new medicinal materials next time."
Lu Yufang tilted her head and carefully checked the medicinal materials in the bamboo sieve.
"That's enough, that's enough. I won't be able to remember any more for a while. Thank you Yueyue. I'll go back and remember these medicinal materials first. I'll come back to you after collecting the medicinal materials."
"Go ahead."
After watching Lu Yufang leave, Chu Yue knocked on Yun Cuihe's door: "Mom, have you rested?"
Yun Cuihe sighed, "Yueyue, come in."
Chu Yue entered the house, stood at the door and looked at Yun Cuihe on the bed with some anxiety: "I took it upon myself to ask Dr. Zhu to come to our house to treat my mother, but my mother is angry?"
Yun Cuihe rubbed her head and shook her head: "How could it be? It's too late for my mother to be happy that Yueyue is so filial. She just felt a little dizzy today and didn't get up because she was afraid of falling."
Dizziness?
Chu Yue thought for a while and then went to the kitchen, took down the hanging basket from the beam, and took out the brown sugar she bought in the town for the first time.
Then he added water to the pot, boiled a bowl of brown sugar and egg custard, and brought it to Yun Cuihe's house.
There are also two slices of ginger in the soup. The combination of these three things can nourish the blood, warm the stomach and strengthen the spleen. It is most suitable for dizziness caused by anemia.
Fortunately, she still had these three ingredients at home, otherwise she would be really helpless.
"Mom, drink this bowl of brown sugar water first. After drinking it, you won't feel so dizzy."
Yun Cuihe sat up with support and reached out to take a large bowl of brown sugar water handed over by Chu Yue, "Why did you put eggs in it? You didn't eat it."
Chu Yue handed the porcelain spoon to Yun Cuihe's hand.
"Mom, your health is more important than anything else. We are young and in good health. We usually eat two more and two less. It won't be a problem."
"Hey, you kid."
Yun Cuihe had to sigh again, how come the Chu family didn't know how to cherish such a good girl before, it really blinded them.
After drinking a bowl of warm and sweet brown sugar and egg soup, Yun Cuihe broke out in a sweat and felt that her head was no longer dizzy.
"Yueyue's soup is really effective."
Seeing that the effect was good, Chu Yue also breathed a sigh of relief: "Mom, stay in the room for now. I will boil a pot of hot water for you. I will bring you a basin to wipe your body and put on clean clothes."
Yun Cuihe nodded: "Okay."
After a while, Chu Yue brought hot water into Yun Cuihe's room. Yun Cuihe got up, wiped off the sweat on her body and put on clean clothes. She felt that her whole body was refreshed and she felt that her body had not been healthy for a long time. It was so easy.
She put the dirty clothes she had changed into the basin and carried them out of the house. Seeing this, Chu Yue hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Mom, let me wash the clothes."
Yun Cuihe turned her body to one side and avoided Chu Yue's hand.
"Yueyue has been working hard for me all morning, so let's go and have a rest first. Mom can move on her own, and her body will feel more comfortable while working."
Seeing this, Chu Yue hurriedly took a small stool and placed it under the big tree.
"Mom, let's wash the clothes here. Don't squat for too long. When you get up after washing the clothes, you should be slower."
Yun Cuihe responded one by one and said with a loving smile, "Okay, I know everything. You can go and do your work. Didn't you ask Xinghe to teach you how to read this morning? Go, go, go."
She listened very clearly in the room. Doctor Zhu was going to introduce his master to Chu Yue. If he really studied medicine in the future, would he be able to write prescriptions?
It was this girl's intelligence that impressed Dr. Zhu. If she could really learn some skills, no one in the family would have a headache or fever in the future.
Chu Yue went to the house and saw Lu Xinghe writing something in ink in front of the window.
She originally wanted to quietly retreat outside the house, but Lu Xinghe was already looking at her.
"Are you done? Today I will teach you how to write with ink."
Chu Yue was stunned for a moment, then stepped forward with a smile, "Okay."
Because she had practiced calligraphy with a brush dipped in water for several days, Chu Yue skillfully dipped a brush in ink and wrote the word "Galaxy" on the yellowed clean rice paper.
She looked at Lu Xinghe with curved eyebrows, "Ms. sir, how do you think I wrote?"
Although the handwriting is not as good as calligraphy masters, the horizontal and vertical lines are straight and the handwriting is beautiful. It is the first time I write on paper and it can be written so well. It is considered very good.
"Well written."
After hearing Lu Xinghe's praise, Chu Yue smiled and dipped in ink again, and wrote Chu Yue next to the word "Xinghe".
Lu Xinghe looked at the words on the paper, and then at Chu Yue's serious expression as he wrote, and the corners of his lips unconsciously rose slightly.
While Yun Cuihe was washing clothes under the big tree, she glanced into Lu Xinghe's room and saw that the young couple were getting along happily, and she was so happy that she couldn't open her mouth from ear to ear.
Priceless treasures are easy to find, but lovers are rare.
Seeing that they could live in such harmony and beauty for the rest of their lives, she felt comfortable in her heart.
After writing a whole piece of paper, Chu Yue put down the pen. She rubbed her sore wrist and looked at the sky outside the house.
"Yeah, I have to go cook."
Before he could walk out, Lu Xinghe held his wrist.
"Don't worry, Xingping Xing'an has come back and is busy in the kitchen. I'll leave lunch to them. I'll knead it for you first."
After saying that, he took her wrist and rubbed a few acupuncture points, and she felt much more relaxed.
"Ms. sir, after the crops in the field are harvested tomorrow, how about we go to the town the day after tomorrow? I want to grab some medicine for my mother first, and buy some brown rice by the way. When the bricks and tiles are delivered to my door, won't we need it at home? Have you started building a house? I’m afraid I won’t have that much time to run to town.”
Lu Xinghe nodded: "Okay."
The family simply ate rice porridge and a small plate of wild vegetables. In the afternoon, Chu Yue made another bowl of ginger and brown sugar water for Yun Cuihe, but this time there was no egg.
The next day, the whole family got busy.
Lu Xinghe and Chu Yue took sickles to cut off the mature rice ears in the field. Lu Xinghe tied the rice ears into bundles while cutting. The two brothers, Lu Xingping and Lu Xingan, were responsible for running around the house and in the fields, bundling the big bundles. The rice ears were carried home to dry in the yard.
Because Yun Cuihe drank two bowls of brown sugar water yesterday, her physical condition was much better today, so she helped dry the ears of grain in the yard and was responsible for the meals for several people.
When the sun was about to set, the rice harvesting in the two-thirds-acre field had been completed.
Chu Yue wiped the sweat from her forehead and returned home with Lu Xinghe. Seeing the two of them coming back, Yun Cuihe hurriedly brought out two large bowls of water, "Drink some water and have a rest. It's been a hard day today."
Lu Xinghe poured a large bowl of water and put the sickle in the kitchen. "Mom, I'll go to grandma's house and borrow the flail. I'll eat it later so I can knock down the rice."
