Chapter 66: Defeat
"Uncle, aunt, you are eating." Lin Mei walked in from outside.
Liu Xiao'e saw Lin Mei come in and asked with a smile: "Mei Zi is here, have you eaten?"
"Auntie, I have already eaten. I came over to talk to Lin Shu. ." Lin Mei chuckled.
As an elder, Lin Dashan put down his wine glass and invited: "After eating, sit down and eat some fish. This is what Gu Jiu and your third brother caught together this afternoon."
Lin Mei glanced at the large bowls of fish on the table and the remaining fish bones on the table. She smelled the spicy smell in the air and couldn't help but swallow, "No need."
Sister-in-law He Caiyun stood up and brought her a pair of bowls and chopsticks, "Come over and have some."
Everyone was polite, Lin Mei sat down next to Lin Shu with half a bowl of fish, "Lin Shu, you kicked Brother Chunlei, wasn't it because you fell in love with that city man? "
After speaking, he glanced at Gu Jiu who was drinking with the men of the Lin family.
Lin Shu picked out a fish bone and raised his eyes to look at Lin Mei: "Isn't it what you want to see? I know Chun Lei with a kick. What? Now you see that I have found a new one." Okay, are you feeling unbalanced again?”
Lin Mei rolled her eyes: "What's unbalanced in my heart? Since you don't admit that you kicked Brother Chunlei because of him, then tell me when did you know him?"
Lin Shubai was confused. One glance at her made her very annoyed that this little girl always likes to stare at her no matter what. "When did he and I meet? How did we meet? Why should I tell you? Is it just to satisfy your desire for gossip?"
Besides, this little girl likes to stab people in the back. , she was stupid before I told her everything.
Lin Mei was so angry that she blushed and had a thick neck, but this was her uncle's house, so she didn't dare to be too presumptuous. She glanced at the man drinking at the main table and lowered her voice: "We are cousins after all. I Shouldn't you be concerned? "
"Besides, why would he, a city man, look for you, a village girl? You’re just having fun.”
After all, Lin Shu had a face that could bring disaster to the country and the people. Maybe the man just took a fancy to her face and was just toying with her.
Lin Shu laughed angrily, gritted his teeth and said: "I thank you for your concern, but it's a pity that I don't need it. You should pay more attention to your Brother Chunlei. Don't let yourself get no grapes here." The grapes are sour, you want to fool others in the city and still look down on your face."
"You" Lin Mei wanted to yell at the ridicule.
“You don’t want to eat this fish!” Lin Shu pointed to the rice bowl in her hand.
Lin Mei lowered her head to look at the fish in the bowl, and immediately swallowed back all the curse words she wanted to say.
She can't scold, she can't scold. If she scolds her, she won't be able to eat the half bowl of fish tonight.
Although you can't curse out loud, you can curse secretly, "Don't be arrogant just because you have a good-looking face. Be careful of being too arrogant. Even God will not be able to see you. One day you will cry!"
< br>Lin Shu looked at her with a half-smile, "Do you believe that I will tell my mother and sister-in-law what you said?"
Lin Mei: "." I curse you in my heart to be abandoned by men soon. .
After finishing the meal, Lin Shu put away Lin Mei's bowls and chopsticks, which made Lin Mei, who still wanted to eat half a bowl of fish, feel stunned to death.
You are stingy, this fish was not bought with money. If you eat too much, you will become poor?
The women finished their meal and ignored the men who were still drinking.
Liu Xiao'e pulled Lin Mei and asked: "I heard from your mother that you have been to your grandma's house these days?"
Lin Mei nodded: "Well, I will represent my parents. Go give grandma and the others a holiday gift."
"Mei Zi, you are a few months older than Lin Shu. She has already found a partner, so it's time for you to find her." He Caiyun said.
Lin Mei almost spat out a mouthful of old blood. She really wanted to spit at her. What do you mean she is too old? No matter how old she is, she is still younger than this yellow-faced woman.
Lin Shu said with a smile: "Yes, you are a few months older than me, so you can't fall behind, don't become an old girl at home."
Lin Mei glared at her secretly, really wanting to Go forward and scratch her face, making you moan.
Lin Shu has lived for decades. In fact, he doesn’t want to argue with a little girl like her, but this little girl is too mean-mouthed and likes to look for presence from time to time. She really doesn’t want to fight back against her. I know the sky is high and the earth is high.
Moreover, her mouth hurt her in the last life. The two sisters-in-law of the Lin family watched Lin Mei leave angrily, and gave Lin Shu an angry look: "Look at your mouth, you are so unreasonable, you make Mei Zi angry, just in case she tells the second aunt about what happened here." , be careful she comes to trouble you.”
"Come just come, whoever flirts first is a bitch, who told her to flirt with me first." Lin Shu didn't care.
She doesn’t want to take the initiative to cause trouble, but if someone takes the initiative to provoke someone regardless of life and death, don’t blame her for being ruthless.
The next day, the fourth day of May.
In order not to be frightened by the evil wind again, Lin Shu took Gu Jiu to the forest further away from the river this time.
The Dragon Boat Festival is the time to harvest mugwort, calamus, Houttuynia cordata and other medicinal herbs.
Lin Shu deliberately found a ravine with water.
Not only do a lot of Acorus and Houttuynia grow here, but most importantly, there are a lot of cattails.
Cattail is a plant that grows in water and is commonly found beside ponds and small rivers. Because its flowers are in the shape of a candle, some places in rural areas call it water candle.
The famous Puhuang in traditional Chinese medicine is its pollen, which is very precious. Puhuang sticks can be used for lighting, and mature water candles can be harvested and used as pillows.
[Host, found cattails, among which Typha huang has the effects of stopping bleeding, removing blood stasis, and relieving stranguria, and is worth 4 yuan per pound. 】
"Shu Shu, here is the calamus you picked last time."
In the cracks of the rocks next to the stream, Gu Jiu was surprised to find a lot of calamus.
"dig them out, be careful not to meet centipedes or snakes." Lin Shu reminded him.
Safety comes first when collecting medicinal herbs in the mountains. For medicinal herbs that grow in a dark and humid environment, you must first alert them when collecting them.
Some people don't pay attention when going up the mountain, and there may be little snakes entangled under the umbrella when picking mushrooms.
If you are bitten by a poisonous snake, it really depends on your luck. Those who are lucky can survive it, but those who are not lucky can only go to see the King of Hell.
So people who walk in the mountains usually have team members walking together. It is very dangerous for Lin Shu to walk alone in the mountains.
In case of emergency, there is no one to help.
Lin Shu relied on a systematic approach, otherwise she would not have dared to go into the mountain alone.
"Shu Shu, look at that, it's a snake shed."
Gu Jiu exclaimed, attracting Lin Shu to walk over.
Snake slough, also called Long Ziyi, snake talisman, etc., is the skin shed by the snake.
It has the effects of dispelling wind, calming convulsions, reducing nebula, detoxifying and relieving itching.
Gu Jiu walked to the snake shed and stretched out his hand to pick it up.
"Wait a minute." Lin Shu stopped his movement and explained: "Snake sloughs generally cannot be touched directly with hands. Snake sloughs in the wild may contain toxins, which may cause infection after being touched."
After that, Lin Shu picked it up with his gloved hands, [System, what kind of snake slough is this? 】
【Back to the host, this is the slough of a black snake, worth 4.5 yuan per pound. 】
Gu Jiu retracted his hand and looked at Lin Shu's gloves with envy, "I will also prepare a pair of gloves next time."
Gloves are very practical when collecting herbs in the mountains.
"Do you have any industrial coupons? If not, I have some coupons here." Lin Shu said.
Gu Jiu watched Lin Shu slowly roll up the snake's slough: "Keep your coupon first, I have the coupon. Looking at the width of the snake's slough, I guess this snake is not small, at least it must be big It weighs seven or eight pounds.”
Good night, my dears~
