Amazing Pastoral World: Unparalleled Medical Queen

Originally, Lu Keer wanted to go to the town to sell the ginseng the next day. But the nearest town, Jinji Town, is more than 20 miles away from Lingxia Village. Ji Shi was busy and was worried about Lu Keer, a girl, walking to the town alone with her treasure. After much thought, she decided to let her daughter take the ox cart of the village old ginger head. The old ginger head would go to the town every other day to help the villagers pack mountain products and other things to exchange for other items in the town. He would also pick up some people and earn some freight. But unfortunately, the old ginger head did not go to the town the next day, and he went the next day.

The four of them still had mixed vegetable porridge for breakfast. Lu Mingxi was obviously not full. Ji comforted him, saying that he would be able to eat enough after his sister sold ginseng for money. So even though he was not full, the little kid was still in an excited state. After dinner, he ran out to play.

After Lu Ke'er reapplied medicine to Xiaopa's injured leg, she placed a bowl of porridge in front of it.

Seeing this bowl of vegetable porridge, Xiaopa wanted to run away. If his legs were not healed, he would have run away long ago.

"Meow——" I don't want to eat porridge anymore, I want to eat meat.

"Now there is no meat, so we can only drink porridge." Lu Ke'er rolled her eyes at it, "Aren't cats omnivores? What's wrong with eating porridge? It's good to have something to eat, why are you so picky?"

"Meow..." But I really just want to eat meat.

Xiaoguai feels aggrieved.

"You want to eat so much?" Lu Ke'er looked at its injured leg and her heart softened. "Okay, then I'll go to the river and see if I can catch any fish."

Cats love to eat fish. Xiaoguai should be no exception.

Going up the mountain to hunt is an impossible task for her, but fishing by the river should still have a certain chance of success.

Lu Keer did it right away and ran out of the room excitedly.

She didn't notice Xiaoguai's melancholy expression.

"Meow..." I want to eat meat, but not fish. Oh, forget it, fish is also meat, let's just make do with it for now.

The Lu family lived on a small hillside, and 500 meters down the hill was a small river. The sun had just risen in the morning, so it was better to go fishing early. But Lu Keer looked around and couldn't find any fishing tools such as fishing rods and fishing nets.

"Ke'er, what are you looking for?" Ji asked curiously.

"Mom, do we have a fishing net at home?" Lu Ke'er asked.

She couldn't remember if there was any fishing gear at home.

"Ke'er, we don't fish." Ji replied, "There are not many fish in the river in our village, and few people in the village fish."

Lu Ke'er remembered that Lei Qianggen was the only one in the village who went fishing occasionally, and his family had a fishing net.

However, she didn't want to go to his house to borrow the internet.

Her eyes swept over the bamboo basket that she had just used yesterday, and an idea came to her mind.

Lu Ke'er came to the river. The riverside was covered with gravel and sand of all sizes. The early-rising villagers were squatting in groups of three or four beside the smooth stones by the river to wash clothes. On the shore, clumps of reeds swayed in the morning breeze. In the distant sky, the morning glow danced with a gorgeous scarf, dyeing the river water with gorgeous colors.

Lingxia Village is located in a valley surrounded by mountains on three sides, with only a winding gravel road leading out of the valley. Village houses are scattered in groups of three or two in various parts of the valley. From time to time, a few wisps of smoke can be seen rising from the mountains and under the shade of green trees. Occasionally, a few dogs bark in the distance.

This is a quiet little mountain village. The scenery is picturesque and the mountains and rivers are beautiful. It is peaceful, but also poor.

"Ke'er, you're here." A girl who was washing clothes by the river saw Lu Ke'er and greeted her happily.

Lu Xiaoxi recognized her as Lei Qi's daughter Dong Ling.

Dong Ling was about the same age as her, but a head taller than her. She was slim, with willow-shaped eyebrows and almond-shaped eyes. Her smiling face was rosy in the morning glow. She was a lively and pretty girl.

"Ke'er, my father came back yesterday and said that you went up the mountain. Are you feeling better? Why don't you stay at home and rest more?" Dong Ling grabbed Lu Ke'er's hand and shook it embarrassedly, "I wanted to go find you after washing the clothes, but I didn't expect you to come to the river."

She looked at the bamboo basket in Lu Ke'er's hand and asked, "Are you here to wash things? Put it down, I'll help you wash it later."

"No." Lu Ke'er hesitated for a moment and said, "I'll go fishing."

"Fishing?" A woman washing clothes nearby heard this and laughed out loud, "Little girl, did you hit your head and become stupid? Are you just catching fish with your hands? If the fish in this river are so easy to catch, why would they wait for you to come?"

Fishing nets cost a lot of money, and few households in the village can afford them.

"Aunt Juan, why are you scolding me?" Dong Ling was angry, "Ke'er is not stupid."

"Look at her like this, doesn't she look stupid?" The woman sighed, "Poor Lu family, once her father fell, this family is ruined."

After saying that, he put the washed clothes into the wooden basin, shook his head and walked away.

"How could they do this?" Dong Ling was so angry that her face turned red. "They say bad things about your family all day long. It's so annoying."

Lu Ke'er burst out laughing.

This little girl is quite cute when she is angry.

"Ke'er, what are you laughing at?" Dong Ling thought Lu Ke'er was laughing at her, so she stamped her feet and said angrily, "If you laugh again, I will ignore you."

"You little hot pepper, who dares to laugh at you?"

"Hey, Lu Ke'er, who do you say is the little hot pepper?" Dong Ling pretended to be angry and rushed over to tickle Lu Ke'er.

"Haha, haha, stop it." Lu Ke'er burst into laughter due to being tickled. She dodged left and right, laughing so hard that she was out of breath.

The morning sun shines on Lu Ke'er's face. Her eyebrows are curved, her eyes are bright, and a silver bell-like laughter escapes from her lips and teeth, dyeing the river water with a happy color.

Dong Ling suddenly stopped and hugged her: "Ke'er, you really should smile more. You look so beautiful when you smile."

Lu Ke'er stopped laughing when she heard this, but felt surprised.

How long had it been since she laughed so hard? Whether in her past life or this life, her childhood lacked the joy that a child should have.

As expected, mountains and rivers can help people relax. Nature has the power to heal people who are physically and mentally exhausted.

"Dongling, do you want to go fishing with me?" Lu Ke'er raised the bamboo basket in her hand.

Dong Ling immediately shouted excitedly: "Okay, okay. I just finished washing my clothes. Wait for me, I'll ask the fat aunt next door to help me take the clothes back."

Lu Ke'er smiled as she found a plump woman among the group of laundry women. After giving her a few instructions, she jumped back.

"Let's go, let's go fishing." Dong Ling was more anxious than her.

The river water was crystal clear, the water plants swayed gently with the waves, and schools of small fish swam freely among them. Dong Ling stared at them greedily.

"These fish are too small. We can't catch them." Seeing her like this, Lu Ke'er shook her head in amusement, picked up the bamboo basket, and said, "The mesh of this basket is a bit big. It can't hold these small fish."

"What should we do then?" Dong Ling seemed to see the delicious fish flying away from her mouth.

"Let's go over there and take a look. There are usually fewer people there, the water is deeper, and the fish are bigger." Lu Ke'er took a bamboo basket and led Dong Ling to a more remote place by the river.

Lu Ke'er found a lot of snails on the rocks in the shallow water by the river.

She reached out and touched a lot of snails, then found a large leaf to hold them.

"Ke'er, why are you touching these snails?" Dong Ling asked curiously.

"Smash the snails, put them in a basket, and use them as bait to attract fish."

"Will fish eat this?" Dong Ling widened her eyes.

"Of course you can eat snails. Many fish like to eat snail meat. For example, black carp especially likes to eat snail meat. Omnivorous fish such as carp, crucian carp and bream also like to eat it."

"Then... can we eat it?"

"Of course you can eat it. Snail meat is rich in nutrients such as animal protein and amino acids, and it is delicious."

"Ammonia... ammonia what acid? What is that?"

“Ah, it means it’s very nutritious.”

Lu Ke'er was secretly upset and accidentally blurted out some words from her past life.

"How do you eat a snail shell when it's so hard?"

"Of course there are ways to cook it. And there are many ways to cook it." Lu Ke'er was in a good mood, "I'll get some home today and let you try it after I make it."

"Ke'er, how do you know so much?" Dong Ling's eyes were full of stars.

Lu Ke'er glanced at the clearly visible snails in the shallow water by the river and really wanted to laugh out loud three times.

Finally I can eat meat!
