Chapter 30 - Opportunity

Since he made up his mind to engage in farming, Xu Cinian has been running around for the inspection project, often getting up before dawn to prepare breakfast for Wowo, and then hurried out to go home at night and come back after washing Wowo, he had to stay up all night to check information and watch videos. He was so busy that he lost a lot of weight.

Luo Xiaomao couldn’t bear it and asked to help him take care of Wowo. As a result, after taking the child for three days, Wowo developed acute eczema.

The small round face that was originally white and tender is now covered with small red bumps, and the bright red one looks particularly dazzling. Wowo is young and does not understand what is wrong with him. Wowo’s face was scratched with colorful, itchy and painful scratches, and it was pitiful.

Luo Xiaomao blamed himself and felt distressed. When Xu Cinian went to the mountains for inspection, he took him to the hospital. The doctor prescribed a lot of anti-inflammatory drugs and skin ointments. He vomited and pulled, so frightened that Luo Xiaomao didn’t dare to delay any longer, so he called Xu Cinian overnight.

The mountains are remote and the traffic is inconvenient. By the time Xu Cinian came back, it was already the next morning.

Pushing open the door, he walked into the house before he could put down his bag. The little guy had never left him for more than three days since he was a child. This time, he was so sick again that he burst into tears when he saw him coming back and stumbled. He raised his two arms and hugged his legs without letting go, “…Dad…Dad…uuuuu…itchy…”

Wowo has always been very good and sensible earlier than children of the same age, so It’s easy not to shed tears. This time he cried like this for the first time, but it made Xu Cinian feel bad. He squatted down and kissed his little face, “Wowo, it’s just a small problem, it won’t be uncomfortable for Dad to stay with you for a while. , don’t cry, okay?”

Wowo sniffed hard, the golden beans in his eyes were still falling down, but he was obedient and no longer crying, his little face was flushed, and he snuggled tightly on Xu Cinian’s body, pressing hard. Nodding, a large teardrop fell, leaving a large pool of watermarks on Xu Cinian’s pants.

Luo Xiaomao was uncomfortable in the first place, but now seeing Wowo like this, he also wiped his tears, “I’m sorry… It’s because I didn’t like Wowo, you can slap me a few times and scold me, my skin rough flesh is thick and I can hold it.”

Xu Cinian was amused by him, and while coaxing Wowo, he glanced at him, “Don’t you usually call yourself a pure man, such a small thing is worth tears? It’s a common thing, I don’t blame you, why are you crying, is it possible that you really think you are a woman by wearing too many women’s clothes?”

Luo Xiaomao glared at him tearfully and stomped, “I feel sorry for your son!”

“Alright, alright, a child’s long-term illness is a long-term vision. You are about to run to three people and join in the fun.” Xu Cinian laughed and teased him, and took out a kraft paper bag from the bag he carried with him. past.

“You take this to the kitchen for me to boil it. After three bowls of water are boiled into one bowl of water, you can bring it out.”

Luo Xiaomao wiped his eyelids and stared at the small paper bag for a long time, “What is this thing? What are you boiling it for? ”

This is a purple fungus, I bought it from the pharmacy just now.”

“I also had eczema when I was a child. My mother used this to boil water for me. After drinking a few times, the red bumps disappeared. If this kind of problem depends on Western medicine, It can’t be cured at all, those skin ointments, gels, etc. have hormones in them, and they don’t itch when they are applied, but the next day after the medicine is stopped, it still relapses, and it has to rely on the things left by the ancestors to work.”

Luo Xiaomao was stunned when he heard it. He opened the paper bag and looked at it. There was a small amount of black stuff inside. It looked almost dry like a dehydrated tea tree mushroom.

“Uh…why is this stuff so fishy? Are you sure it will work? Wowo is allergic to anti-inflammatory drugs. What if something goes wrong with this wild recipe?”

Xu Cinian raised his leg and kicked his mouth, smiled and said, “He’s my own son, can I still harm him? I was allergic to anti-inflammatory drugs when I was a child, and it was cured if I didn’t eat it as usual, don’t talk nonsense, be careful, I’ll let you pay for my little guy. The mental loss of the little guy for so many days.”

Luo Xiaomao immediately persuaded when he heard this, obediently went to the kitchen to boil the medicine with his tail tucked, but staring at the dry and rotten tree roots in the paper bag, his heart was still beating.

This thing… can it really work? Is it better than a doctor’s prescription?

With a lot of doubts in his stomach, a bowl of concoction was boiled, Xu Cinian took sugar cubes and glutinous rice balls, poured the concoction into Wowo’s mouth little by little with a small spoon, and finally kissed his little boy forehead to encourage.

Wowo has been ill for so many days and has not slept well. He cried a lot in his father’s arms just now. He was so tired that he couldn’t open his eyes.

When he closed his eyes and nestled in his father’s arms, he slapped his mouth a few times, thinking that he must go to Chengcheng to buy candied haws, medicine is so bitter…

Luo Xiaomao stared at Wowo in astonishment. A whole bowl of medicine was poured into his stomach, and his mouth widened in admiration, “Damn… this baby won’t get sick, and even his sense of taste will deteriorate. How did such a smelly medicine get in…”

Xu Cinian, he gave him a funny look, “You are afraid of taking medicine, and your IQ is not as high as Wowo. This is worrying for your future husband. You have to be someone who doesn’t have long eyes to like you.”

“Fuck off! I’m TOP Do you understand? You who gave birth to a baby in one shot is not qualified to show off in front of me.”

Luo Xiaomao pouted, but was kicked in the ass by Xu Cinian, and jumped up with an “Ow” in pain, “Damn! You know how to bully me! I’m going to tell the big boss that it’s him. See you! I’ll be a big hero of the BOSS then, see if you dare to harass me!”

Xu Cinian sneered, and glanced sideways, “Then go, Qucheng was still there a few days ago washing the dishes for me obediently at home, do you think I’ll be afraid of him? And… if he knows that you are the effect of my eczema son, and he vomits, he won’t peel you off.”

Luo Xiaomao wanted to cry but had no tears, but after a long while, he choked out a sentence, “I curse you two beautiful and loving dog boys! Washing dishes, sons and so on… It’s so exciting…”

Xu Cinian Shrugging his shoulders, he turned and walked into the bedroom with a smile.

Luo Xiaomao followed behind to gossip, “Listen to what you mean, the two of you seem to have made a lot of progress, what do you think, is this considered to be together? You want to invite me to eat red eggs together! Hey, don’t you? Heyyy!”

By twelve o’clock in the evening, most of the rash on Wowo’s body had faded away. Although it still looked shocking, the original red color had become much lighter, and the swollen skin had returned to its original state. 　　The little guy has been tortured by eczema for so many days and has not slept well. Now the itching is not so bad. He snored comfortably after lying on the bed for a while.

Luo Xiaomao came in with a glass of water, stared carefully at the skin on Wowo’s body, and his eyes widened in surprise, “That smelly rotten leaf really works, it’s gone after a while.

Xu Cinian, he nodded, picked up the entrepreneurial materials on the table and said, “It’s been said that it’s useful, but you still don’t believe it.” 　　When I was a child, I lived with my mother in the south. There were a lot of purple mushrooms in the fields. My family had a headache and a fever. I used this grass for burning skin and wounds. The effect is very good.” It’s a pity that the weather here in the north is not suitable, so we can only buy sun-dried purple fungus.”

Luo Xiaomao raised his eyebrows in surprise, “Can this thing still be eaten cold? Wouldn’t it be too fishy? Also, what does it look like? I’ve been in the south before, but I’ve never heard of this thing.”

Xu Cinian scratched his head, put down the information in his hand and sat up, “Of course I can eat it, and I have eaten it many times when I was a child. The scientific name seems to be called Houttuynia cordata or something. I will draw it for you.”

The pen sketched on the paper, and after a while a small grass appeared on the paper with a flower and a bunch of stamens on it, “This thing seems to be able to eat the roots, stems and leaves, the petals are white, the stamens are about the size of your thumb, and the mouth is about the size of your thumb. It smells fishy, ​​but it tastes good with vinegar and sugar.”

Luo Xiaomao stared at the paper for a while, rubbing his chin with a puzzled expression, “Ah? Why does this thing look so familiar to me, it seems we have seen this thing in our hometown, but it is not called this name, it seems to be called Zhe Ergen.” (Chameleon plant)

“Your hometown? Is it in the south?”

“How is it possible, my hometown is near S City, and I’m an authentic northern gentleman.” Luo Xiaomao waved his hand, his beautiful eyes narrowed, “Speaking of which, the root of the ear is in me. We all treat it as a weed, no one eats it at all, I didn’t expect it to be so powerful.”

“Are you sure?” Xu Cinian’s eyes widened in surprise.

Luo Xiaomao didn’t know why, so he nodded subconsciously, “Yeah, if you’re not mistaken, then there must be some in my hometown, and there are so many that the fellow villagers can’t get rid of them with herbicides.”

Xu Cinian’s eyes instantly changed. It was on, he stood up abruptly, his head seemed to have been hit hard by something, the light flashed before his eyes, and his heart beat a few beats faster.

For so many days, he has been looking for a breeding project to start, but he is a layman and has no knowledge of these things. Still nothing after so many days.

Cultivation is a chore, experienced people are only willing to make a fortune, and no one is willing to share their experience. In terms of the situation, the investment in animal husbandry is too high, the profit in food is too low, and there are no conditions to engage in seafood farming…

Although he is not in a hurry to achieve success, if he wants to grab Xu from Xu Xinnian’s hands, To avenge his grandfather, he can’t delay it again and again, so he has been running around for a while, just trying to find a breeding project with a small investment and a large return, and a broad market prospect.

Now Luo Xiaomao’s words unexpectedly woke him up, making him suddenly see new hope.

Houttuynia cordata is very popular in the south, firstly because of climatic conditions, and secondly because of its great medicilnal value. For those who are pursuing diet and health, it is undoubtedly a good thing worthy of promotion.

Secondly, the acceptance of it by northerners is not high. Many people like Xiaomao have never heard of it, let alone eat Houttuynia cordata as food.

If there are also conditions suitable for the growth of Houttuynia cordata in the north, coupled with the vast market and the prevalence of medicinal foods, it is simply a big cake that no one is looting!

Xu Cinian’s head turned fast, the corners of his mouth twitched, he hugged Wowo’s little face and kissed it hard, his palms began to sweat with excitement.

If it weren’t for Wowo’s ​​illness, or Luo Xiaomao’s sudden awakening, I’m afraid that he would never have thought of such a good business opportunity no matter how much he researched and researched more markets. These two people are simply his lucky stars!

“Xiao Mao, tell me where your hometown is, I plan to go see it tomorrow.”

Bending his eyes, he smiled brightly at this moment.

Seeing him more calm and restrained, his emotions and anger are indifferent, Luo Xiaomao was slightly absent-minded, and suddenly understood why Qu Cheng took a fancy to him at first glance.
