Cao Anping sorted out the medicinal herbs harvested today.

He had become skilled at making the Dragon Essence Tiger Pills, so he decided to make five servings at once.

Because the production process is slow and time-consuming, it is not cost-effective to make them one by one.

Just as he was about to start, there was a knock on the door.

"Brother Anping, it's me, Xu Damao."

Cao Anping was speechless. He had forgotten that he was going to give Xu Damao acupuncture today.

He put away the prepared herbs before opening the door.

Seeing Xu Damao, Cao Anping nodded, very satisfied that the other party did not break the rules.

Xu Damao has been in very good spirits recently. It seems that quitting smoking, drinking and sexual intercourse are indeed the way to maintain health.

Seeing that Cao Anping did not let him in, Xu Damao asked doubtfully: "Brother Anping, is this inconvenient?"

Cao Anping nodded and said, "Come to the hospital to see me tomorrow morning. I need to prepare the medicine tonight.

Because I have to renovate my house, and then I will stay in a guesthouse for a few days, and it is not convenient to get medicine there. "

Xu Damao's eyes lit up. Was he going to prepare another Dragon Essence Tiger Meng Pill?

He begged hurriedly, "Brother Anping, you have to leave some for me. My father-in-law took away half of my medicine."

Cao Anping did not comment, and said perfunctorily: "Let's wait and see, and we'll tell you when there's more."

For the time being, he would only give Xu Damao one bottle and was reluctant to sell it to Lou Bancheng unless he had something good in exchange.

Because he didn't want to make friends with Lou Bancheng, and there was no need to sell it simply for money, after all, it was in short supply.

Xu Damao sensed some perfunctory attitude, but he had no choice but to let his father-in-law buy it himself.

Anyway, his weight must be hidden well, and he also has to discuss it with Lou Xiao'e to avoid revealing it.

After Xu Damao left, Cao Anping locked the door and started making medicine.

Front yard gate.

The second aunt entered the courtyard holding a new quilt that had not yet been covered.

She didn't expect that even though cotton is so hard to get, there are still so many people making quilts.

She went to get the quilt and waited for nearly an hour before she got it.

Almost everyone in the courtyard had returned, and Yan Bugui was preparing to leave his "post" and go home for dinner.

He was a little surprised to see Old Liu's family coming back with a thick quilt.

Just to make a piece of clothing, an ordinary family would have to store cotton for a long time. When did the Liu family become so rich?

He stepped forward and asked, "Sister-in-law Liu, where did you get so much cotton?"

The second aunt replied with a little caution: "I made this for Doctor Cao."

When it was said to be Cao Anping's, Yan Bugui thought it was reasonable. He heard that Cao Anping had received a lot of rewards, so it seemed that he had a lot of cotton coupons as well.

His eyes sparkled and he asked, "You are so enthusiastic, what benefits did Dr. Cao give to your family?"

The second aunt rolled her eyes and said nonchalantly, "Old Yan, you are too narrow-minded.

My head of the family said that this is a good relationship between neighbors, helping each other, how can we ask for benefits? "

The second aunt shook her head, looking as if she didn't want to say more, and left.

Yan Bugui naturally didn't believe it, but after all, she was a female comrade, so he couldn't stop her and ask her the truth.

He felt deeply moved: "Such a good job has fallen to the Liu family, it's really an advantage."

If this job is given to his family, wouldn't it be too much to charge him half a pound of cotton as a reward?

Thinking about the hard and inelastic quilt at home, maybe I could change it to some cotton, but what a pity.

I have to have more contact with Dr. Cao in the future, and I hope he can think of my family when he has work.'

He returned home with a sigh and looked at the pickled vegetable steamed buns.

I caught four small fish and used them to drink fish soup for four days in a row, but today there are none left.

Thinking of the fish bones and fish viscera he had collected from everywhere in the past few days, he was looking forward to fishing at the weekend.

The Yi family in the middle courtyard.

If it weren't for the somewhat subtle atmosphere, it would really be a scene of a prosperous and happy family.

Although there seem to be seven or eight people, they are actually four families. Of course, the Jia family accounts for half.

Ever since Jia Zhang swaggered in, she has been urging Auntie and Sha Zhu to cook faster.

She acted like a hostess giving orders to a farmhand, and she even sat on the top seat.

The deaf old lady looked gloomy and cursed: "Zhang Xiaohua, are you planning to ride on my head?"

Jia Zhang knew that Yi Zhonghai had something to ask of him, and she was a little too proud of herself, even looking down on the deaf old lady, saying disdainfully:

"Deaf old lady, you are no longer a five-guarantee household, and your family assets have been confiscated.

In the future, if you don’t know where to eat, why bother about where to sit? It’s good enough to have something to eat.”

The deaf old lady almost couldn't breathe. How could Jia Zhang learn from Cao Anping and speak directly to the lungs?

She subconsciously touched her crutches, but she hadn't returned home yet and the crutches were still at home.

She could only tremble and point at Jia Zhang and curse: "You shameless Zhang Xiaohua, this is Xiao Yi's family, what is your turn to manage it?"

Jia Zhang curled her lips and said, "It's none of your business anyway. I wasn't afraid of you before. I was letting you go because I was afraid you would blackmail me."

"enough!"

Yi Zhonghai looked unhappy and cursed at Jia Zhang before saying, "If you want to eat, sit next to me. Otherwise, don't eat."

Then he said to Jia Dongxu with a hint of deep meaning: "Dongxu, help your mother away. Don't you have any sense of respecting the elderly? What did I teach you?"

Jia Dongxu was in a dilemma and the atmosphere became awkward for a moment.

He definitely prefers his mother, but he cannot offend Yi Zhonghai.

Jia Zhang narrowed her triangular eyes and looked at Yi Zhonghai, thinking: "You are so good, old Yi, you want my son to take care of you in your old age, but you dare to scold me, I will ask for a lot of money later."

Yi Zhonghai glared and refused to give in. He wanted Jia Dongxu to take care of him in his old age, but he couldn't let Jia Zhang come to his house and order him around.

If Jia Zhang can climb over his head now, then what's the point of keeping an old man?

The Jia family was in a difficult situation now, and Jia Zhang had no confidence and could only give up a seat silently.

The deaf old lady then sat on the upper seat, but her expression did not improve at all.

Jia Zhang was making trouble in the courtyard, and the one she was most afraid of was the deaf old lady.

But now she was slapped in the face, and she didn't know what other people's attitude towards her was, which made her a little worried.

In such an awkward atmosphere, Sha Zhu came out carrying a large bowl of steamed buns made from two-grain flour.

An old lady also brought a pot of stewed radish vermicelli, black fungus and sauerkraut.

Although there is no meat, you can still see some oil, so this meal is pretty good.

Without waiting for everyone to sit down, Jia Zhang quickly took two steamed buns, one in each hand, and began to wolf them down.

She even found time to complain: "Old Yi, I was just released today, you should buy me some meat to celebrate."

No one paid any attention to her. Everyone was used to it. As long as Jia Zhang was involved, they should not talk too much while eating, otherwise there would be nothing to talk about later.
