Peasant girl farming: I did beauty in ancient times

Chapter 65
"You think I don't want to? It's just that I can't afford to study. It's too far to go to the school in the town. Let's read it when I'm older." That's what Fang said, but Fang's heart is actually a little moved. Maybe her baby is the second It's Zhang Chunsheng.

Lin Yuehua also thought about letting Lin Dahu study in the school. Firstly, it was really far away, and secondly, she could also teach the enlightenment, and she would send it later when she had saved enough money.

"Big girl, how about I come to help with the cooking at your house? I don't want a lot of salary, you can just give me twenty yuan in total." Seeing Zhang Xiahe cooking at Lin Yuehua's house, Mrs. Fang also thought about it.

Fang thought that the spring plowing was over and the fields were not busy, so it would be nice to chat and earn a few pennies.

"Then you come, it's tiring for Miss Xia He to cook a meal for a dozen people by herself."

After Lin Yuehua agreed, Fang happily went to the kitchen to help with cooking.

After Zhang Xiahe returned to her natal home, she didn't go anywhere in the village, so she went to Lin Yuehua's home to help with work. She was a widow with a child and there were a lot of gossip in the village.

She heard several times that the villagers said she was a burden, dragging down her younger brother Chunsheng's marriage, and she also secretly cried several times, this world is really unfair!
Why should she be gossiped by men after she died!

"Xia He, you are peeling potatoes. Auntie will help you. I will cook with you in the future." Fang picked up the potatoes and started peeling them.

"Okay, aunt." Zhang Xiahe had no objection.

After peeling potatoes for a while, Fang asked Zhang Xiahe: "Xiahe, you are still so young, do you plan to find another one? How about Auntie let you pay attention."

"Auntie, what are you talking about! I didn't plan to look for it, the baby is still young." Zhang Xiahe was ashamed and annoyed.

"I can't find anywhere."

Lin Yuehua listened outside the door, and saw that the two of them got along well, so she felt relieved. The aloe vera in the field had to be planted quickly, and if the task of one mu of land was not rushed, there would be no time.

Lin Yuehua called Zhang Daguan, took his siblings with him, and the four of them went to plant aloe vera in the field.

Lin Erya was very interested in seeing all kinds of green grass on the roadside along the way. She pulled a grass and said to Lin Yuehua, "Sister, this is Pingcheqian, also called plantain. It blooms from May to July, and it blooms in July. until September results."

"Oh? Is it medicinal herbs?" Lin Yuehua saw Lin Erya's excited face.

"That's right, the seeds of Pingcheqian can be used as medicine. They are sweet in taste and cold in nature. Sister, let's pick the seeds of Pingcheqian and sell them in medicine shops in September, okay?"

Lin Erya was very happy, she believed that one day she could earn a lot of money, just like her sister.

Lin Yuehua didn't have the enthusiasm to discourage Lin Erya, she patted Lin Erya's head, smiled and said: "Okay, Erya knows new medicinal materials and tell my sister, we picked them and sold them for money."

"Eldest sister, isn't this just a weed? It's everywhere, and you can sell it for money?" Lin Dahu was a little confused. He felt that the grasses were all the same. Why could the second sister be able to distinguish what is a medicinal material.

"This is the power of knowledge!" Lin Yuehua was afraid that Lin Dahu would not understand, so she changed the term.

"Dahu, you have read and know a lot of characters, but your partner doesn't know how to read. You can understand the book "Thousand Characters" when you hold it, but he can't read it if he doesn't know how to read. Similarly, Erya learned If you haven’t learned herbal knowledge, you won’t be able to recognize it.”

Lin Dahu was not convinced: "I don't know herbs, but I can recite a lot of poems, and the second sister can't memorize it. I'm no worse than the second sister!"

"I didn't say that you are worse than Erya. Everyone has their own strengths. What we have to do is to learn the skills and increase our knowledge. When a person's vision is broadened, his heart will also be broadened." More open-minded."

Lin Dahu fell into deep thought.

Lin Yuehua admitted that at first she liked the well-behaved and sensible Lin Erya, but after getting along now, she can see Lin Dahu's little progress and change, and she will try her best to be a bowl of water in the future.

Seeing Lin Erya who was having fun while squatting on the ground and pulling plantain leaves, Lin Yuehua strengthened her mind.

"Brother Zhang, you take Dug to plant aloe vera in the field first, and Erya and I go to the doctor's house in Lincun and then come back."

Zhang Daguan, who had been following behind him like a transparent person, immediately ran forward when he heard Lin Yuehua calling him: "Yes, my boss, just call me Daguan."

Lin Yuehua couldn't resist Zhang Daguan, he worked for Lin Yuehua as a long-term worker, and insisted on calling Lin Yuehua his boss.

Village doctor Lin is a white-haired old man who walks tremblingly. His great-grandson is as old as Lin Erya, but only two generations older than Lin Yuehua.

Lin Yuehua went to Lincun doctor's house, and Lincun doctor was drying herbs in the yard.

"It's the big girl, Erya, right? I'm old, your eyes are blurred when you get close, and you can't see clearly." Doctor Lin narrowed his eyes.

Lin Yuehua knew that it was probably presbyopia and couldn't see clearly, so she took Lin Erya's hind legs for a few steps, and said with a smile, "Grandpa Lin, Erya and I came to see you."

"Grandpa! Who are they?" A crisp child's voice came.

Lin Yuehua looked over and saw a little boy poking his head out from the room, his eyes flickering, very cute, he has a pair of dimples, why does this look familiar?

"Who is Grandpa Lin?" Lin Yuehua and Lin Erya asked in unison.

"He's my eldest granddaughter's second son, Chen'er, come here." Doctor Lin saw the little boy smiling and waved to him.

The little boy ran to Doctor Lin on short legs, and looked at Lin Yuehua and the others curiously.

Lin Yuehua also remembered that this child was almost exactly the same as the little medicine boy she had seen in Huichuntang in the town.

"Grandpa Lin, does Chen'er have an older brother who works as a medicine boy in Huichun Hall?"

"Big girl, how do you know?" Doctor Lin was surprised.

Lin Yuehua explained the reason, and also expressed the purpose of coming: "Grandpa Lin, I came here today because I want you to accept Erya as your apprentice. My younger sister is quite talented in medical skills."

Unexpectedly, Doctor Lin didn't even glance at Lin Erya after hearing this, and frowned.

Lin Yuehua thought about it, it seemed rash to come to apprentice, she was impatient to bring meat and candy, tea and so on.

"Grandpa Lin, you can test Erya. Let her distinguish the medicinal materials, and you won't be disappointed."

"There's no need to take the exam. I don't accept apprentices. Although the old man has no skills, he can see some simple diseases, but he doesn't accept female apprentices. Girl, please go back." Village doctor Lin refused directly.

Lin Erya's face turned pale all of a sudden.

Lin Yuehua wasn't angry, but felt that Lincun doctor was too stubborn, could it be that he passed on males and not females?How can traditional Chinese medicine be passed on and carried forward?
But Lin Yuehua didn't force Doctor Lincun.

"Grandpa Lin, you always pay attention to your health. Erya and I are going back first, and we will come to see you in a few days." Lin Yuehua took Lin Erya's hand and said goodbye.

Lin Erya was devastated.

"Why are you following us?"

Lin Yuehua saw that little boy coming out, a white and cute little boy.
