The Resplendent Farming Apothecary - Chapter 43

[Chapter 43: It’s All That Rabbit’s Fault]
When my son was young, he was the closest to him. I like to hug his legs and call him “Daddy” softly; I like to greet him the moment he enters the door and let him lift it up; I like to be beside him and thump his back and his legs diligently…
When? , the son did not kiss him? It seems that after returning to Qingshan Village, he often quarreled with the Miao family and lost his temper at every turn. The way his son looked at him was less intimacy and more fearful. It became completely unfamiliar, it was after he married Liu’s door. He knew that Liu Shi beat the child behind his back and deducted the child’s rations. But what has he done? Pretend not to know, ignore it.
Later, when Liu Shi threw Gu Ye away, he did not stop him. Going to the town to sell that girl, he also participated in it… The way his son looked at him became more and more unfamiliar, and the son’s heart was pushed farther and farther by him…
Mrs. Liu doesn’t care so much! It is impossible to want two hundred taels of silver today! With these five taels of silver, it’s better than returning empty-handed! She took a step forward, snatched up the silver, and dragged her man to leave.
But he was stopped by the old patriarch: “Wait! Since you took the money, you bought out all the affection and relationship with the two children! In this case, then write a document to cut off the relationship. I and The village chief is a witness!” The
patriarch asked Li Hao to call for Gu San, the most literate person in the village, and asked him to write a letter of severing ties, saying that Gu Qiao and Liu’s two received five taels of silver from Gu Xiao, completely Cut off the affection with Gu Ming and Gu Ye’s two children. From then on, there is no relationship between them. If you violate it, you will be expelled from the clan and the village!
The documents are in triplicate, and both sides have signed and fingerprinted. The old patriarch and the village chief also signed their names as witnesses. Both parties hold one document each, and the other is placed with the old patriarch.
Gu Qiao came out of the fifth uncle’s house in a daze, holding the document in his hand. From now on, his son has nothing to do with him. For five taels of silver, he sold his son and all his kinship!
“It’s really bad luck! I thought I could make a lot of money, but who would have made so much money!” After entering the door, Mrs. Liu complained dissatisfiedly, “This sister-in-law Wu is really, I don’t know clearly. What is one hundred and sixty? Two silver coins, those are all old doctors and they have nothing to do with that dead girl!! And you, don’t say anything. You are the child’s biological father, if you open your mouth, maybe you can ask for more The silver is back…”
Before Liu’s voice could finish, a slap landed on her face. She was stunned for a moment, looked at Gu Qiao and asked in a puzzled way: “Why are you beating me? Did I say something wrong?
” Mine, he has nothing to do with me at all, are you happy? I beat you to death, and my mind is full of money! Why don’t you sell your son for money to buy meat to satisfy your cravings?” Gu Qiao’s eyes were bloodshot, and his face was hideous, and he punched and kicked Liu Shi with his head covered. The fight caused Liu to cry.
“How can you blame me? It’s your pair of good sons and daughters who rely on themselves to make money. I’m afraid that you, a poor father, will be dragged down by this document to cut off the relationship. How can it be mine? Yes, I want to get from there. The old lame man brought more money back! But who am I for? Isn’t it for our little strong family? Don’t you have no objection?? Why is it all mine now?” Liu shi sat on the ground, guarding Head and face, while crying and trying to defend.
“Gu Qiao! Is there only one son Gu Ming in your heart? Our little Zhuang is not your son? Your good son, you gave the money yourself, saying that it has nothing to do with you. Maybe he didn’t want to recognize him long ago. You’re a father. You still have a little blood in your heart!”
Seeing that the slaps on his body were gradually decreasing, Liu raised his head, wiped his nose and tears, and continued to shirk his responsibilities. .
Gu Qiao was just looking for a scapegoat to bear all the guilt. Hearing this, the only trace of nostalgia and affection in his heart completely disappeared. He murmured:
“Yeah, it was Ming’er who cut off the father-son friendship between us! Haha, he’s really my good son, he hasn’t developed yet, so it’s useless to dislike his father! Such an ungrateful person will be a white-eyed wolf when he grows up.”
“Yes, yes! You still have Xiaozhuang, and Xiaozhuang will honor you when he grows up!” Liu Shi hurriedly got up from the ground, patted the dirt on his body, and retreated to the door, “I’ll find Xiaozhuang. Come back strong, so as not to go crazy with a group of ass children, what should I do if I bump into each other?”
After speaking, she ran out the door, as if a vicious dog was behind her. That chubby figure actually ran faster than a rabbit!
The courtyard was quiet, leaving only Gu Qiao standing blankly. After a long time, he sighed heavily, turned and entered the room. yes! From now on, he has only one son, Xiao Zhuang!
Compared with the desolation and desolation of Gu Qiao’s family, Gu Xiao’s yard is very lively.
“The village chief, second brother, brothers, no one is allowed to leave at noon today. I still have a bottle of good wine, which is honored by my precious granddaughter. Let’s try it together!” Gu Xiao carefully collected the documents, enthusiastic Retain a few brothers to stay for dinner.
The village chief, the clan chief and several clan elders could not shirk, so they stayed. The village chief said to his grandson: “Go, go home and get some radishes, cabbage and potatoes as a side dish. Gu Wudi, don’t stop you. There is nothing good at home, these are all grown in their own fields.” The
old patriarch also said: “Fifth brother, you came back late and missed the time to plant winter vegetables. What if you don’t have any vegetables to eat this winter? I’ll ask your nephews to bring you some later, as the family grows a lot and can’t finish them all. “…”
Several clan elders also expressed that they had a lot of winter vegetables at home and wanted to give some to Gu Xiao and the others.
The last time It has been a long time since the children in the family have tasted meaty meat. The few catties of wild pork have completely relieved their family members.
And today, the thank-you gift from the Ding family, 50 to 60 catties of good pork, Gu Xiao’s own family only kept 10 catties, and the rest was distributed to their brothers. In their hearts, the fifth brother left them a good impression of being heroic and generous. Being recognized by them, Gu Xiao and his two children will be more popular in the village in the future.
Gu Ye went to ask Sister Li to help, and made several hard dishes such as “braised pork”, “stewed potatoes with pork ribs”, “stewed pork noodles” and “double-cooked pork”. The old guys from the grandfather generation in the yard ate their mouths full of oil and complimented.
However, Gu Ye was not satisfied. In her previous life, she belonged to the list of culinary idiots. In this life, although I can cook some home-cooked dishes, I only stay at the edible level, and it is far from being “delicious”.
The dish “Braised Pork” was memorized from the book “Practical Recipe” she found by looking through the books in the space. She also followed the recipe carefully, step by step. However, the taste she made was far from the taste she had in her previous life.
In the past life, everyone who knows Mr. Ye, the “genius pharmacist”, knows it. In addition to loving money, Mr. Ye also loves food. A dish that satisfies her, it is possible to exchange for a life-saving potion. Those top chefs before the turbulent times all worked hard and tried every means to make delicacies that Mr. Ye admired in exchange for hard-to-find medicines.
In this life, conditions were not allowed before, but now craftsmanship is not allowed. In this Qingshan Village, most people’s requirements for food are too low, just enough to eat, where would anyone spend time pondering cooking skills?
Gu Ye’s disappointment and loss were all in the eyes of her master Yaosheng. He took it all to heart.
This meal almost ate the ten catties of pork left by the Gu family. Li Hao, who stayed with his grandfather to eat rice, said that he had never eaten such delicious meat dishes in his life. He even joked that if Gu Ye would be his sister, then he would be able to eat such delicious food every day.
It’s no wonder that their dishes are only seasoned with salt and miso. When Gu Ye cooks, he adds various spices such as star anise and cinnamon, as well as spices such as five-spice powder, monosodium glutamate, and chicken essence. Nature is better in taste.
He was so angry that Gu Ming, the madman who protects his sister, almost got into a fight with him—robbing his sister and looking for abuse!
After the pork was finished, Gu Xiao went up the mountain from time to time to come back with some small game, but the meat dishes at home were never broken.
As the temperature got lower and lower, Gu Ye found that his grandfather seemed to be getting heavier. One day, when she was rubbing medicated oil on her grandfather, Gu Xiao sighed and said, “Little Ye’er, you said… If I ask Yao Sheng to buy this medicated oil, will he sell it to me?”
Gu Ye then remembered that his grandfather had said that he would send medicinal oil to his old boss far away on the frontier. She patted her chest and said, “Grandpa, why don’t you speak up, wrap it around me!”
“Don’t, don’t! Last time you didn’t ask your master, you privately agreed to sell Ding Dashao’s heart-saving pills. That’s right. Now, how can I go to trouble Yaosheng and his old man again?” The
granddaughter was picked up by Yaosheng to be a disciple, and the disciple can’t share the master’s worries, and always causes trouble for his old man. Gu Xiao was afraid that the Yaosheng Association would anger his granddaughter, so the matter of the medicated oil and the hot compress salt bag has been delayed.
“Grandpa, don’t you think of me as a granddaughter?” Gu Ye puffed out his cheeks and widened his eyes, like a cute little hamster.
Gu Xiao looked at it and couldn’t help laughing: “What kind of unconscionable person said this? You are not my Gu Xiao’s granddaughter, who else is it?
” I’m a granddaughter, so don’t be so polite! Wait a minute, my master still has several bottles of this medicated oil, let me help you get it back!” Gu Ye wrapped the hot salt on his grandfather’s knee, Turn around and leave the house.
