Chapter 250 The Matter of Brewing Medicine
Lin Chunyi squatted to the side, head down, scrubbing the greasy plate with a loofah, and said:
"Alright, stop playing around and hurry up and take a shower. We still need to clean the bathtub. The water is cold, and if you stay in the bath for too long, even the best body can't withstand so much cold."
"Okay, okay~" Lin Lanshan quickly started working.
After all, the bathtub is a big deal. The sooner it's ready, the sooner we can take a hot bath!
With the addition of loofah and soapberry, the entire cleaning process was much simpler than washing dishes and chopsticks before, except that it took some effort to scrub off the charcoal from the grill.
Before we knew it, the sun was setting in the west, and streaks of brilliant purple-red light fell across the sky.
Taozi and Tuanyuan Ankang, who had earned enough to eat all day, were slowly making their way home when they appeared before the two sisters.
"Uh-huh!"
"quack!"
"Cuckoo!"
Seeing its two owners squatting by the stream, it assumed they were catching small fish and came running over, wanting to play together.
Lin Chunyi looked up at them and laughed, "Their calls are so loud, they must have eaten quite a lot today."
They were all extremely proud when they heard this, chattering away: Of course, they are all good pets who can save their owners food!
Lin Lanshan then placed the loofah sponge at her feet, washed the last plate in her hand, shook off the water, and put it into the bamboo basket.
An'an and Kang Kang, like thieves, stealthily stretched their long necks and moved closer to her.
Since they didn't see any small fish, they simply started munching on the unfamiliar loofah sponge.
One goose can just peek at half of it.
The loofah sponge, already somewhat deformed from being washed on the barbecue grill, was further irritated by these pests, causing part of it to leave its original shape...
Seeing that the perfectly good loofah sponge had been torn to shreds, Lin Lanshan skillfully patted the two geese on the head and gently scolded them, "Hey! What are you doing? Is this food? You're already trying to eat it!"
Luckily, she had already washed off the soap scum, otherwise the two of them would have been putting on a bubble-blowing show all day.
I wonder when they'll be able to change this bad habit of biting anyone they don't know.
An'an and Kang Kang were beaten and cried out in pain, shaking their dizzy heads: "Gah!" "Gah!"
It hurts so much! It hurts so much!
Biting meat gets you beaten, biting a round clod of dirt gets you beaten, biting a wild animal's fur gets you beaten. Now, even biting a piece of dry grass by the roadside gets you beaten?
Goose has absolutely no status at home, so sad! So very sad!
An'an and Kang Kang hung their heads, turned around and faced their owners with their backsides, unwilling to face reality.
"You're eating random things and you're still unhappy? You've got quite a temper." Lin Lanshan put down the rotten loofah and tapped their heads with her finger.
They whimpered twice and buried their heads and half of their long necks in their feathers.
"Are you really angry? Are you still going to eat the sweet fruit or not?" Lin Lanshan took a bite of the crisp, sweet winter jujube she casually took out from her spatial storage.
The crackling sound made An'an and Kang Kang's feathers tremble, as if they were hesitating about whether to eat...
She reached out and ruffled the feathers on their backs, saying, "If you don't eat, I'll eat them all!"
The feathers shook again.
"Then I'll give all yours to Peach and Tuan Tuan Yuan Yuan to eat~"
With a "whoosh," they stretched out their heads, tilted their necks back, and squealed twice in dissatisfaction before opening their mouths wide to wait to be fed.
The meaning is very clear.
If the host wants to eat it, fine. But if the friend wants to eat it, no way!
Peach and Tuan Tuan Yuan Yuan: So, what they're implying is that we're the ones with the lowest status in this family...?
These two heartless geese, who used to go out together, eat together, and come home together every day, have now broken up. Ugh!
Despite the disdain and contempt in Taozi's and Tuantuan's eyes, An'an and Kang Kang ate the pitted crisp dates.
They eat with gusto and laugh with gusto.
Lin Lanshan gently stroked their heads and began a serious lecture: "Don't put anything in your mouth without even knowing what it is. Imagine how heartbroken I would be if you were poisoned. You're all my precious little darlings~"
They obediently rubbed against her palm, quacking loudly! They would never eat indiscriminately again and would be their master's good geese!
"You can't eat random things anymore, and I promise I won't hit you anymore~"
"Giggle~" Got it~
Lin Chunyi watched silently from the side, and the more she watched, the more she couldn't help but laugh. This was truly a case of slapping someone and then giving them a sweet treat!
She slowly stood up, supporting her numb legs, and said a concluding remark: "Let's go, it's time to go home."
After An'an and Kang Kang, the two obedient little rascals, followed Lin Lanshan home, Lin Chunyi fed Taozi and Tuantuan Yuanyuan some jujubes as well.
The little guy who bites things and gets punished gets to eat good food, so it's unfair to let obedient pets just watch helplessly.
Back home, it was getting dark.
The two sisters quickly finished cleaning the bathtubs and left them to dry in the yard.
The next morning,
Lin Lanshan was sitting in the courtyard, fanning herself with a frown on her face. She wasn't fanning herself, but rather fanning the firewood burning in the small stove.
On the stove, the traditional Chinese medicine they were about to drink was being simmered.
The two sisters, having been home for over a day, only remembered wanting to eat barbecue, and indeed ate until they were greasy and full.
But the few doses of traditional Chinese medicine left in the corner of the carriage were completely forgotten...
As soon as they remembered, they quickly added water and started cooking.
As the fire grew larger, the medicinal liquid boiled, and the aroma of the medicine wafted out of the earthenware pot along with the white smoke.
"Ugh~ I'm going to die, I'm going to die! How can I drink this?! Ugh~ I can't even stand the smell!" Lin Lanshan retched as she fanned herself in other directions, the smell was simply unbearable.
The bitter, spicy, sour, and foul smells all mixed together and entered her nasal cavity; even removing the fan didn't help.
Lin Chunyi pinched her nose and walked over, telling her a trick for drinking Chinese medicine: "Close your eyes, hold your breath, and gulp it down."
She didn't really want to drink it, but no matter how awful it smelled and tasted, she had to. It was for treatment, and it had cost a lot of money!
"Then you can watch the fire for a while, and I'll go get some fresh air, okay?" Lin Lanshan stretched out her arm and handed over the fan.
Lin Chunyi shook her head, then took two big steps back and said righteously, "No, you are the true owner of this medicine. I can't accept it."
His expression and demeanor were as if he had rejected some incredibly wonderful thing.
"..." Lin Lanshan: You really are my sister~ Your mouth is so sharp, I think you are the one who owns this medicine!
She glanced down at the bamboo fan in her hand, clenched it tightly, wishing it would immediately transform into a banana leaf fan!
She wanted to let her older sister taste what the wind from 108,000 miles away tasted like!
