Zhang Man'er didn't answer. He lifted the cover on the basket and the delicious chicken soup came out.
Looking at Xue Chuan's stunned eyes, she said with a smile: "good luck in the morning, Xue yang beat a pheasant, I picked a basket of medicinal materials, and then I took them to the town to sell, I don't know how much they are worth."
"You know how to detoxify, you can also collect medicine, daughter-in-law, what else do you have that I don't know?" Xue Chuan took the dishes and chopsticks she handed over and wolfed them down.
Zhang Man'er blinked his eyes and said: "there will be plenty of time in the future. You can explore it slowly."
This is a promise in disguise. Xue Chuan looks into his daughter-in-law's eyes a little deeper, just like the water in a deep pool, unable to see to the end.
"Eat quickly. By the way, try this fish to see if it tastes good." Zhang Man'er pointed to the fried golden soft crucian carp and asked.
"Is this a fish?" Xue Chuan was surprised. Looking at Zhang Man'er and his expectant eyes, he took a bite. His mouth was filled with fragrance. The fish's bones were fried crispy. Even the fish's bones were very crispy.
"Yes, how delicious? Haven't you had such a practice? How did you do it? "
"You think it's delicious, too. I, my aunt and Xue Yang all say it's delicious. It seems that there is a market for this fish? I'm going to make more and sell it on the street. Anyway, there are plenty of fish in the stream. It doesn't cost much to buy some drinks and mud jars. "
"Clay pot, what do you want this for?" Xue Chuan ate a mouthful of oil and asked, not knowing why.
"Ordinary mud jars are not good. We have to find small and big ones, just like wine. Put these fish in mud jars and seal them. They can be kept for more than half a year or even a year. When you want to eat, take out one and serve it immediately. "
She knows that in modern times, canned fish is a very popular thing. Although some technology can't keep up with modern technology, it can also be preserved by taking advantage of this mud can.
Of course, if this business is feasible, she would like to order a batch of clay jars, which are of large mouth and small shape.
"It's a good method. Let's try it for a while."
"I hope it works. With money, you can eat something good and keep fit."
Xue Chuan touched her hair, and he was about to come down from the Kang: "after a while, you go to town, and I'll accompany you."
"No, you are still very weak. Lie down well and keep it for a few days." Zhang Man'er, with a straight face, refused.
Looking at him, his body is a little shaky. How can he follow him? Besides, she has been to town and can find her way.
Xue Chuan looked at the way that he had to be helped when he walked. He was a man of indomitable spirit. He thought about the prestige of catching thieves and robbers in the Yamen.
Now he has to be helped when he gets off the Kang. He can't do anything while sitting on the Kang. He just waits for his daughter-in-law to serve him. He can't feel at ease.
In his cognition, a man should be indomitable and support his family. How can Zhang Man'er go out to make a public appearance.
But at present, his physical strength is not very good, waiting for recovery.
"OK, you should be careful when you go to the town. I'll accompany you to the town when I get better." Xue Chuan felt guilty and pinched her little hand.
"OK, don't think so much. Take good care of your body. It's poisonous and overbearing. It consumes too much of your breath. Wait for a good conditioning."
With that, Zhang Man'er cleaned up the dishes and put the remaining chicken soup in the cupboard.
After that, she went out with a bag of herbs on her back.
The afternoon sun is the strongest time of the day. Fortunately, it's not June yet. Otherwise, if you go out, you have to be skinned.
There is an old man in the village who specially drives cattle carts, but he seldom drives them on weekdays. He usually drives back and forth many times on the day when he goes to the market in the town.
It's OK to drive a car on weekdays, but it costs 20 to 30 Wen to pack a car.
It's not cost-effective. Let's go. When we earn money, we must buy an ox cart as a means of transportation.
It takes half an hour to go to the town by ox cart, and it takes an hour to walk. Zhang Man'er takes exercise. They also walk in the town with Xue Yang that day. They are familiar with the route and walk faster.
After all, it's two legs. After walking the general road, it's as heavy as lead. Zhang Man'er thinks that she has hundreds of thousands of savings in modern times. In order to save dozens of Wen, she can't help but feel funny.
In ancient times, it was hard for a hero to get a cent.
At this meeting, she heard the sound of kicking. When she looked back, she saw the big uncle who was driving the ox cart in the village hum, stopped the ox cart, and said, "is Xue Chuan's daughter-in-law going to town? Come on, get in the car. I'll give you a ride
"Well, thank you, uncle Liu." Zhang Man'er threw a sweat and jumped onto the ox cart with the wooden board in his hand. When he unloaded the basket, he felt relaxed. Then he found that his back was wet.
It's not easy to think that the villagers usually travel back and forth to the town on two legs.
"You're welcome. Isn't that the way? It's time to go to the town. By the way, Xue Chuan's daughter-in-law, are you going to sell things in the town? "
Uncle Liu was driving the ox cart, looking back at her basket. It was covered with a piece of cloth, and he couldn't see what was inside. Maybe it was selling vegetables?
Zhang Man'er neither admits nor denies that if it comes out that she is digging herbs, the whole village will know tomorrow.
She avoided the topic and asked, "by the way, uncle Liu, what's the better medicine hall in the town, the one where the old and the young are not deceived?"
Seeing him asking, uncle Liu understood and looked at her with satisfaction: "daughter in law Xue Chuan, I've heard about Xue Chuan's poisoning in Yamen and being carried back. Do you want to save him? But even Doctor Li can't help it. Do you have a way? Didn't the people in the Yamen say that they couldn't even save the doctors in the town? "
It seems that everyone in the village knows about it. Zhang Man'er looks dignified: "well, uncle Liu, as long as there's a glimmer of hope, you should try it. Just tell the medicine hall where it is."
The daughter-in-law of the Xue family is good. Xue Chuan is like this. She never gives up. She never gives up a slim chance. Suddenly, uncle Liu knows all the rumors in the village.
This is a good boy. He has a wrinkled face and smiles lovingly: "there are many medicine halls in the town. If they have a good reputation and are honest with the old and the young, they have a hundred years of history, they are the hundred herbal medicine halls."
"Thank you, uncle Liu." When she found out about this medicine hall, she saved a lot of things, and she didn't have to carry her bag and look for it everywhere.
Zhang Man'er had already walked half the way. He would listen to uncle Liu talking about some things in Hedong Village. The time was not hard and the journey was not boring. He soon arrived at the town.
