Only this green, not disappointing the spring

It was bad enough, but I didn't expect it to be over yet.

Li was learning how to prepare medicinal herbs with her youngest daughter when they heard someone knocking on the door.

When I opened the door, I saw several women standing outside. They were all from the same village, but they didn't interact with each other much.

Several of them were older than Li, and one of them was almost a grandmother.

"Sisters-in-law, what's the matter with you? Why are you all here together?"

Before Li could finish her words, the short and strong woman standing in the front pushed past Li and entered the yard, smiling and saying:

"Hey, Miss Li, we are neighbors, what else can we do? My friends at home have almost finished their work, so why don't we come over here to chat for a while?"

Several other people also swarmed in. As soon as they entered the yard, they saw herbs drying in the sun. Everyone couldn't help but reveal greedy looks.

If this large area of ​​herbs is sold to a clinic, I will definitely make a lot of money!

The Zhou Xiaoxi sisters suppressed their unhappiness, stood up and greeted everyone politely.

Seeing Xiaoxi and the other two, the short and fat woman smiled like a procuress, her eyes shining.

"Sister Li, your two girls have become successful now. They can pick herbs. Are they processing the herbs?"

Li stood in front of her daughter and did not answer her question. Instead, she asked:

"Sister-in-law, didn't you say you wanted to come over and chat with me? As you can see, my family is too busy right now and we don't have the energy to greet you. How about we chat another day?"

When she heard that Li had chased people away without even offering them a bowl of water, the short and fat woman's face instantly turned cold.

"Sister Li, we sisters have just come to your house and haven't even set foot yet, why are you chasing us away? I won't beat around the bush with you, we are here for something."

An impatient woman immediately responded:

"Yes, yes, sister Li, we came here today to ask your two girls to teach us how to collect these medicinal herbs."

The short and strong woman was very unhappy that her speech was interrupted. She rolled her eyes at the other woman and took over the right to speak.

"We are not unreasonable people, and we won't waste the two girls' time too much. Just carry the herbs to your house at about this time every day, and you can help sort them and tell us how to dry them."

"This back mountain belongs to all of us in Huaihua Village. Since you have learned the skill of collecting herbs, you should let everyone learn it. Otherwise, it will anger everyone!"

The short and fat woman spoke very loudly, and Zhou Jun, who was lying down and resting in the room, was woken up long ago. Naturally, he heard everything she said clearly.

In anger, he burst out with amazing strength, used his hands to support his body, and kept trying to move his legs off the ground.

But it has been less than half a month since he woke up, and his body is still a long way from recovery. Being able to support his upper body is already his limit, so how can he possibly get his legs down to the ground!

Zhou Xiaoxi had long wanted her sister to go into the house to look after her father, so she had been paying attention to the situation in the bedroom.

Faintly hearing heavy breathing, he immediately pulled his sister into the house.

Seeing Zhou Jun stand up by himself, he was happy at first, but then surprised, because Zhou Jun was about to fall to the ground!

The hairs on her body stood up instantly. She ran forward quickly, lowered her center of gravity, and used her entire back to block Zhou Jun's body.

Zhou Xiaonan quickly followed and threw herself at her sister with all her strength. The two frail girls barely managed to hold up Zhou Jun's body, which was about to fall.

Li also heard the noise in the house. As soon as she walked to the door, she saw a scene that almost frightened her to death.

Seeing that the two sisters had settled Zhou Jun, Li was furious and her eyes looked scary as if they were spitting fire. She suddenly turned around and stared at everyone in the yard.

"You rotten-hearted people just can't stand seeing anything good happen to our family! When Zhou Jun came back from the barracks, which of your families didn't receive any benefits from us? In the end, they were all fed to the dogs!"

"No, if you give the wild dogs in the village some food, they will wag their tails to show their gratitude. You are worse than pigs and dogs!"

Li's roar was heartbreaking, not giving the other party a chance to breathe, and continued to curse:

"When my man was sick, you all ran away faster than rats. The three of us cried out to the heavens but no one answered us. You almost drove us to death! You black-hearted, selfish people, how dare you come to our house and take advantage of us now? Aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning?"

"Get out of here, and never come to our house again. Even if our family becomes so poor that we have to beg for alms, we will avoid your house!"

These women have the audacity to go to other people's homes and ask for favors, but none of them will suffer any loss or humiliation.

Upon hearing Li's vicious words, he immediately put his hands on his hips and let out a loud cry.

After settling the house, Zhou Xiaoxi quickly rushed out, stood in front of Li and shouted, "Wait!".

The woman who howled suddenly became silent, like a screaming chicken that was suddenly strangled by the neck.

His big square face turned red.

"Ladies, please don't rush into a quarrel. Listen to me. My mother's words are a bit harsh, but it's also because you are going too far! This method of identifying and using medicines was taught to us sisters by Doctor Zhang. Why should we teach you if you want to learn it?"

"Every blade of grass and every tree on this back mountain is a gift from God. No one can stop you from picking herbs. Our whole family is exhausted from taking care of my father. Why should we help you work?"

"Also, my dad has woken up, didn't you know that?"

Seeing that everyone wanted to explode on the spot, if Zhou Xiaoxi wanted to put out the fire, he had to come up with enough chips.

The reason why the villagers rushed to bully their family was because they thought Zhou Jun would not get better, and some disgusting people even thought that Zhou Jun would not live long.

She only vaguely stated the fact that her father had woken up, but did not specify to what extent he had recovered.

Zhou Jun just came back from the military camp. If his violent temper is released, no villager will not be afraid.

It’s not that Zhou Xiaoxi is timid and fearful. Behind these women are several families.

If they really fell out, their family would be torn to pieces by the men from these families. She didn't have to count on her uncles at all, as they would probably run away faster than rabbits.

Therefore, she couldn't allow Li to fall out with these people.

When everyone heard Zhou Xiaoxi say that her father had woken up, they were stunned at first, then they reacted and asked with a little lack of confidence:

"What happened to your father just because he woke up? Does that give him the confidence to curse people randomly? Didn't you hear how badly your mother cursed? No, you must give us an explanation today. You mother can't make the decision, so we'll go to your father to reason with him."

This was exactly what Zhou Xiaoxi wanted. He extended his hand and invited them in.

Seeing her fearless appearance, several women felt weak in their feet.

Before they reached the door, two people stopped.

"We are both young, and it would be unreasonable for us to enter a man's bedroom, so we won't go in, and will just wait outside the door."
