Wang Xuelan said hello to Zhang Zheng and went to the kitchen. She drove Lu Xingan from the back of the kitchen to the main room, and sat on his seat to light a fire for Chu Yue.
"Yue Yatou, I heard your mother said that you are buying a shop in the town?"
Chu Yue nodded.
"Yes, I bought a small shop, but it's not on the main street."
Wang Xuelan glanced in her direction, "You have been buying land and shops recently, so you have spent a lot of money, right?"
"The money to buy the land was saved before, and the money to buy the shop was borrowed. I thought now that I have a skill, I might as well open a medical clinic in the town, and then I can pay it back slowly after making money later." Chu Yue Tell the truth.
"It's okay to buy land. You won't lose money if you hold it in your hands. You can still sell it in the future. I heard that the shops in the town are so expensive. I'm afraid it's hard to sell it, right?" Wang Xuelan had a trace of worry in her eyes. "And the money you are borrowing is not for mediation, right? You must never borrow this money. The interest rates are terrifyingly high. Many people ended up bankrupt just because they couldn't pay the interest rates."
Chu Yue smiled and comforted, "Don't worry, we didn't borrow the money for the good office. My husband is also watching when we buy a shop today. We know it well."
"That's good, just be sensible." She said, stood up, and unfolded the cloth bag in her hand in front of Chu Yue. "Your father dug this out yesterday afternoon when he was looking for wild vegetables in the mountains. We don't know what it is. We wanted to come to you to ask. You haven't been at home all day. Yufang said that I was afraid it was some kind of valuable medicinal material. , so they didn’t let us eat it as wild vegetables, let Yue Yatou show it.”
Chu Yue took the cloth bag handed over by Wang Xuelan in her hand and took a closer look. It was indeed a plant root, less than the size of an adult's hand, irregular in shape and dark brown in color.
She looked at Wang Xuelan in surprise, "Nai, where did you dig this thing from?"
Wang Xuelan shook her head, "I don't know exactly where it is. It's not outside the mountain. What's wrong?"
"Milk, this is Polygonum multiflorum!"
Chu Yue handed Polygonum multiflorum back to Wang Xuelan's hand, unable to conceal her excitement in her tone.
Wang Xuelan also opened her eyes in surprise, "Polygonum multiflorum? Is this dark thing the Polygonum multiflorum that is said to make you immortal if you eat it?"
Chu Yue covered her mouth and smiled, "Immortality is not guaranteed, but Polygonum multiflorum is indeed a precious medicinal material. It is rare to find it. Milk, even though this Polygonum multiflorum is young, I am afraid it can be sold for eighty or ninety liang!"
After speaking, she lowered her voice very low.
After Wang Xuelan was overjoyed, she handed the piece back to Chu Yue with a struggling expression.
"Grandma doesn't understand either. Since it's valuable, you can sell it and pay off the debt first."
Chu Yue hurriedly pushed the thing in Wang Xuelan's direction.
"We can help grandma take a look, but we can't ask for grandma's things. The family is not at the end of its rope yet."
Wang Xuelan couldn't help but stuff Polygonum multiflorum into Chu Yue's arms, and then went to the stove to light the fire.
"Just take it if it's given to you. If you feel bad about it, just think it's us who borrowed it from you. You do things properly and grandma won't be afraid of you spending it randomly. We don't have much money to spend at home now. When we separated, we still have a lot of money on us." I have a few taels of silver lying around."
Chu Yue held the Polygonum multiflorum in her hand, feeling a little hot, but more moved.
There was a slight smile on her face, and her tone of voice was a little gentler, "Then I will help grandma sell the Polygonum multiflorum, and then I will send the money to grandma later. After all, we can't take the money." Grandma’s.”
After hearing Chu Yue's words, Wang Xuelan quickly stood up and said, "Hey, you kid..."
But he saw that Chu Yue had already run into the house with Polygonum multiflorum in her arms.
She put the Polygonum multiflorum away before returning to the kitchen. The venison steamed on the rice was already giving off a fragrant aroma, and Yun Cuihe, who had made two pots of wine, also returned.
Wang Xuelan kept glancing into the pot with the lid on, "What did you cook? It tastes so good."
Chu Yue said with a smile while adjusting the sauce, "We'll find out later."
Yun Cuihe warmed the two pots of wine on the pot lid, then raised her hand to take off the necklace from her neck, "Mom, don't be as familiar as Yueyue, this child is used to doing riddles."
Wang Xuelan smiled and shook her head, "I'm already half dead, so what's the point of meeting a little girl?"
Yun Cuihe said hurriedly, "Bah, bah, mom, I don't want to say this. With Yueyue protecting me, my parents will be able to live to be a hundred years old in good health."
Chu Yue, who was busy making the sauce, heard this and said with a smile, "Mom is a little blindly confident in me, but I also hope that my grandma can live a long life and enjoy the blessings of future generations."
Wang Xuelan sighed.
"I don't care if you enjoy it or not, as long as you are all well and can take a look when you want to, that's enough."
Soon, Chu Yue could smell the faint aroma of burning wafting from the pot. She opened the lid of the pot, poured the prepared sauce evenly onto the venison and rice, and closed the lid again.
"Nai, you can turn off the firewood in the pot here and let it simmer with the remaining warmth."
"Hey, okay."
Wang Xuelan hurriedly took out the firewood and put it on another stove.
Chu Yue fried some peanuts to go with the wine, and then fried a plate of cabbage. When Yun Cuihe saw that the vegetables had been fried, and after setting the dishes and chopsticks, he called the people who were warming up in the main room to come to the kitchen to eat.
Since there were many people eating today, Chu Yue moved a small table to the kitchen and sat on the small table with the four children to eat.
While eating the Bobo rice cooked by Chu Yue, everyone kept praising it.
Lu Tiesheng took a sip of wine and said with a face full of intoxication, "Oh! The life of wine and meat, which I couldn't even imagine in the past, has actually been realized by Lao San and his family today."
Zhang Zheng glanced at him calmly.
"Isn't it just a fair meal? Is it worthy of your emotion?"
"Brother, don't laugh at me. I have lived in this mountain all my life. I am a person who has never seen the world. Naturally, I am different from experts like you who run around. People don't live in this world just to eat. "?" He looked at Zhang Zheng, "Isn't my brother like this too?"
Choked by Lu Tiesheng's words, Zhang Zheng did not answer immediately.
Wang Xuelan took two pieces of venison from her bowl and stuffed them into Lu Tiesheng's mouth, "I can't even stop your mouth while eating, and I don't have to let the children see the joke."
Lu Tiesheng smiled and chewed the venison in his mouth intoxicatedly.
Except for a few children and women, men had a big appetite, so almost everyone ate a bowl of rice and a bowl of porridge.
After the meal was finished, Yun Cuihe began to put away the dishes and wash them. Lu Xingping was also helping. Lu Tiesheng, Wang Xuelan and Lu Dagui, father and son, took advantage of the fact that they could still see the road and went home.
"Ms. sir, we have bought the shop. When will the shop be renovated?"
"It's just that at this young age, I'm afraid we can't make too much noise, so we can only take our time." Lu Xinghe looked at her, "What are your thoughts on the layout of the shop?"
