Zhou Zhoufeng looked at the obviously insufficient dinner, and asked puzzledly: "Did you eat less?"

Lin Jin looked angry and was about to open his mouth. After thinking for a while, he calmed down and changed his voice: "I have something to do tonight, so I'll eat in the main room first. You guys eat, I'll clean up the kitchen."

He planned to discuss it with Mitutoyo at night before telling his sons to avoid affecting his son's study.

Zhou Jinnian was copying books in his room, but Xie Ning was always in the small yard, so he could tell his father's unnaturalness at a glance.He wondered, why did daddy lie?Obviously, the lips are shriveled, without any shine, and it doesn't look like they have eaten while it's hot.

While eating, Zhou Jinnian looked at Xie Ning and frowned, "Why don't you eat well?"

Zhou Jinnian is not a god either, since he welcomed Xie Ning in, his life has directly developed in another direction.For example, in the previous life, his uncle had never suffered such a serious injury, and the wild boar was indeed caught, because in the previous life, only one wild boar appeared.

So he had no idea that his father had lied today, and seeing that Xie Ning didn't eat well, neither did he eat buns, nor did he pick up vegetables, and he ate dryly with mixed grains and rice, he was a little angry that the child didn't eat well.

"Hmm..." Xie Ning didn't expect Zhou Jinnian to stare at him while eating, he hesitated and couldn't come up with a reason.

"Then what do you want to eat?" Zhou Jinnian asked again, this time his tone was a little helpless, and there was also a hint of pampering, he thought Xie Ning was tricky and tired of eating.

When he asked this question, Xie Ning had an answer, "Steamed dried eggplant! It was dried for another day yesterday, and it's ready to eat. I'll take it to the kitchen and steam it for you to taste!"

Hurriedly shoveling the remaining coarse grains in the bowl into his mouth, Xie Ning went to pick up two dustpans and ran to the kitchen with puffed cheeks.

Zhou Jinnian pursed his lips and sighed, the little husband is hard to raise, his mouth is too tricky.

Lin Jin was sitting in the kitchen thinking about how to raise the matter of dividing up the family. Seeing Xie Ning holding the dustpan, he was thinking about something and nonchalantly helping to light the fire.

Steamed Glutinous Rice and Spicy Eggplant takes only a moment to heat through and it's ready to eat.Not long after, Xie Ning used chopsticks to feed a piece to his father, "Daddy, have a taste, are you used to it?"

The hot steamed dried eggplant was soft and glutinous, spicy and fragrant, and very chewy. Lin Jin felt that it tasted like jerky when chewing, "It's delicious. How did this eggplant taste like jerky?"

Xie Ning pursed his lips and smiled, "It tastes better when it's cold. It's more chewy than jerky. I'll grab some and give it to Ji Nian."

Lin Jin looked at the drawer full of steamed dried eggplants, and thought of his mother's meanness tonight, so he blurted out, "Send them all back to the courtyard!"

Lin Jin's heart skipped a beat. Now that everyone is having dinner in the main room, it's impossible for anyone to know.But it was the first time he hid his secrets. It was only because his mother was too partial. The elder sister-in-law and the sixth younger siblings were scholars, but his son was also a scholar in his lonely year. Why can those two families not do any work?

He and Sanfeng worked so hard that they couldn't get enough food now.

"Didn't you say it tastes better when it's cold? After it's cold, take it out and divide it." Lin Jin swiftly beat up all the dried eggplants and put them into the original dustpan. The two picked up the two dustpans and went back small yard.

After returning to the yard, the family shared steamed dried eggplant.Spicy and spicy to stimulate the taste buds, the dried eggplant tasted like eating meat, and the other three were full of praise. Although it was steamed a lot, piece by piece, the four of them actually ate as much as half a dustpan.

Xie Ning ate a few more dried eggplants, rubbed his stomach and said, "I'm full, I'll get up and walk."

There was an extra steamed bun on the table, Lin Jin pretended not to waste it, so he took it and ate it with steamed dried eggplant.After all, he had been working in the field for a day, and he was already hungry.

Xie Ning really started to eat and drink in the small courtyard, even though he reached the top of the wall after ten steps, he took a few steps in a circle, and waited for Zhou Jinnian to return to the room before he hurriedly followed.

Zhou Jinian carried the bucket to fetch water from the big well, Xie Ning followed closely behind him, Zhou Jinian glanced back, but didn't stop, and led the little follower out of the yard.

Once out of the courtyard, Xie Ning reached out to grab Zhou Jinnian's sleeve and said, "Jinian, Daddy lied today."

Zhou Jinnian was puzzled, led the people behind the tree, and asked carefully, "How do you say it?"

"Father obviously didn't have dinner, so he lied to us that he would eat with everyone in the main room first. But why?" Xie Ning frowned and thought.

Zhou Jinian recalled that his father ate a lot of steamed dried eggplants, and the remaining steamed buns were as big as an adult's palm...

He understood right away, and guessed in his heart that it was almost inseparable.It seems that this division of the family will not wait until the end of his hospital examination next year.

"Since Dad is hiding it, let's pretend we don't know it for the time being." Zhou Jinian thought for a while, Xie Ning was more careful than him, and the two were married, so he didn't plan to hide everything from Xie Ning.

"At the end of the month, I went to the town to pay for copying books, and bought some food for my home. You are careful and help me take care of my father and father. When I save enough money, we will separate and move to the town."

"Huh?" Xie Ning's eyes widened, but he immediately said, "You have the final say."

Being well-behaved and obedient, Zhou Jinian turned around to dig a well.

Xie Ning followed behind him, already thinking about what he could do in the town to share the burden of food and clothing for the family.

"Lonely Year!" The cry was full of surprises.

"I'll make more steamed dried eggplants, can you take me to the town to sell them? Let's save money together."

Looking back at Zhou Jinian, since the founding of the Daqing dynasty, the indoctrination of the sons was that the head of the family is busy making a living outside, so the little husband said, "We two save money together", which surprised him, it was a touching surprise.

"No, you have to hurry before dawn, the road is hot, and there is no pool for you to rest in the town." Zhou Jinnian expressed his concerns, but Xie Ning had a good heart, and said: "You do it, I will take you Go and exchange it for silver."

Xie Ning was depressed, annoyed that he had been poisoned, Ji Nian was a scholar, how could he be asked to do business with others?

In the Daqing Dynasty, there was a saying that "scholar-bureaucrats are not mixed with industry and commerce".

On the other hand, he felt a little sweet in his heart. Although Ji Nian was taciturn, he treated him really well. He didn't think he was shy and didn't do housework. He never saw his 'ugly' face. Disgusted, now I can even let go of the scholar's heart.

He was poisoned by this fish, but by accident, he married Ji Nian.He suffered from the fish poison.

Zhou Jinnian fetched water and went back to take a bath, but he was not arrogant.Having lived for decades and occupying a high position, why should he care about other people's opinions?

Xie Ning squatted on the low stool with his hands in his arms, his chin resting on his knees, thinking how he could keep going to town without needing water for a day?

After thinking about it for two days, he had finished eating the dried eggplants. He still hadn't come up with a solution, but his father, Lin Jin, was sick.

Lin Jin was exposed to the sun and bent over to work in the fields. After two days of intensive labor, he finally couldn't get up because of back pain on the third morning.

In Zhou Feng's heart, why is food important?Because his husband and son have to eat, now his husband can't sit up, and the family has surplus food, so the farmland is not so important.

Hu Langzhong went to Zhou's house all the time this month. He made money, but he lived in a village. People in Zhou's family often fell ill, and the doctors were benevolent. He felt sorry for the money he earned.

"If the old disease relapses, if you work again, you won't have to think about sitting up in this life." Hu Langzhong flipped through the medicine basket that he carried with him, and brought some plasters for back pain.

"Jin Lang is not yet forty, Doctor Hu, please treat him!" Zhou Zhoufeng frowned in distress, with a bitter expression on his face.

"You know you're less than forty now? Why didn't you know how to let your body rest?" Hu Langzhong is also a straight-hearted person, but he has a good heart.

"It's not difficult to cure. This time it's completely cultivated, and it won't be a problem in the future. Take two taels of decocted water and mix it with brown sugar, one dose a day." Hu Langzhong added solemnly: "It hurts the muscles and bones for a hundred years. God, his waist is an old disease, it hasn't lasted for half a year, it can't be eradicated, don't be tired! Remember it?"

"Remember it, thank you doctor, this is the consultation fee, I will follow you to get the medicine." Zhou Jinian took the broken silver and handed it to Hu Langzhong.

"Ten plasters are worthless. You can collect the medicinal materials from the mountains by yourself. Gather more and give them to me for the plaster money. Anyone of you can go with my house, and I will let you identify them." Hu Langzhong carried the medicine basket on his back and refused to accept it. Money, push the door out.

Xie Ning followed, "I'll go, I used to collect herbs when I was young, I'm familiar with it."

Xie Ning was also sensible, so he went to snatch Hu Langzhong's medicine basket to help carry it, and followed others to identify herbs.

To identify Chinese herbal medicine, one must smell its taste and distinguish its shape.After Xie Ning recognized it, he plunged into the back mountain. The thunderbolt vine is easy to recognize, it is a creeping shrub, and it is well adapted to survive in the deep mountains and wild forests. Xie Ning searched in the mountains hungry.

Grandma Zhou at home heard that the third-bedroom husband was bedridden with back pain, so she came over to take a look, and saw Lin Jin's face was pale, with pain between her brows, she pursed her lips, didn't say anything, and of course didn't pay for the treatment, she turned around and left.

Although Zhou Zhoufeng was worried about his mother's attitude, he was worried about her husband, and the feeling of being cold was only for a moment, and more attention was still on Lin Jin.

Zhou Jinian went to exchange grain with the villagers for brown sugar. He had some doubts in his heart, why all the development in this life was something he had never experienced in his previous life?

If so, he can only carry the memories of the previous life with him, and face a brand new life in this life.Could it be that God has eyes?There is no room for cheating.

If this is the case, he can only live the life ahead, because accidents always happen suddenly, and only he is strong enough to resist the pain that these accidents bring to his family.

Xie Ning cut a basket of vines, and went to Hu Langzhong's house without stopping.

"That's right. Just take the vines, about this..." Hu Langzhong held the vines to compare the length, "Decoct in a bowl of water, mix it with brown sugar after the water is muddy. You can also prepare some sea salt to stir-fry, and wrap it in a thin quilt Burning your waist, is there anything else you don’t understand?”

Xie Ning panted and nodded, "Understood."

"Go back to decoct the medicine, take all the vines back, and pick them again when you have time, and give them to me with my basket." Hu Langzhong waved his hands away.

Xie Ning thanked him and hurried home. He went up the mountain just after dawn, and it was already past noon. He was tired and hungry. More importantly, his body began to itch and heat up, and he was about to get sick again.

Back in Zhouyuan, he ran to the stove non-stop to start decocting medicine, Zhou Jinnian followed, "I'll come, you go into the water and rest for a while."

Xie Ning has had too many good days since he entered the door, this time it was only half of the pain before, he could bear it.

Xie Ning was in a hurry, and ordered directly, "You light the fire, and I will decoct the medicine."

He was afraid that he could not explain clearly, so it would be better to decoct the medicine himself.

Looking at Xie Ning's flushed face, Zhou Jinnian felt distressed and moved.
