Chapter 635 It’s so bad!

The days passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye it was the day when snowflakes began to fall. Zhu Yuanyuan stood on the top of the corridor with her arms spread out to catch the snow, but she only felt bursts of coolness.

"It's snowing, so we need to take a long vacation~"

After being busy throughout the spring, summer and autumn seasons, it was finally time to be lazy. She decided to sleep until noon tomorrow.

"What are you standing there for?" Tu Yuan couldn't help but howl, "The herbs we dried today haven't dried yet. If we don't put them away quickly, they'll get soaked by the snow."

The other witches nodded in agreement, "Uncle Yuan is right, little witch, you should be more careful!"

Zhu Yuanyuan smiled awkwardly, "I was thinking that after I collect it, I have to put it on the kang to dry. If it gets a little wet, it should be..."

She held back the three words "No problem" under everyone's gazes. She admitted her mistake decisively, "I was wrong. I shouldn't have delayed collecting herbs just to watch the snow. I won't do it again."

Tu Yuan urged with a straight face, "Stop talking and collect it quickly."

Okay. Zhu Yuanyuan honestly bent down, picked up the winnowing basket containing the dried herbs, trotted into the house, put the winnowing basket on the open space, turned around and ran out again. During the run, she almost bumped into someone running from other directions.

After a flurry of activity, all the herbs were brought into the house and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

The next thing to do is to sort the herbs in the winnowing basket into a clean basket in the corner, and then take them to the kang on the first floor to dry.

"Using only the kang in Dawu's house might be a bit slow," Tu Yuan was quite worried.

A lot of herbs have been exchanged these days. Even though some of them do not need to be put in the sun, there are still quite a few left, filling up the space on the top of the corridor.

"It's okay. You can put some on the kang in my house. If that doesn't work, you can go to my mother's house," said Zhu Yuanyuan.

Once again, the benefits of staying close to home are highlighted.

A witch said enviously, "It's so convenient for the little witch to go home. If I had known earlier, I would have chosen a place close to the witch's home."

"You dare to think about it, but unfortunately you don't have the chance," Tu Yuan complained bluntly.

Everyone: "…" Why are you so direct? It's easy to get beaten, okay?
After sorting, those with stronger strength carried the baskets downstairs. A small half was placed at Dawu's house, and the majority was sent to Zhu Yuanyuan's house next door.

Drying medicinal herbs requires caution, and someone must be left watching by the kang. Zhu Yuanyuan, who was adjusting the kang temperature at home, was speechless when she saw the baskets piled up in the room, "How many did you bring to me?"

"Not much," Tu Yuan said with a smile, "The Great Wizard has to sleep at night, and it's not good for the night watchman to occupy the kang to work, so we can only let the Little Great Wizard do more. However, the Great Wizard feels sorry for his disciple's efforts, so you don't have to go next time when there are fewer patients."

Zhu Yuanyuan: “…” That’s great. You dug a big hole for yourself and you have no choice but to jump into it.

He saw the guest off with a sad face, and immediately smiled when he returned home.

Although there is less work during the snow season, there is a convenient corridor and patients still come and go. Everyone has to take turns to work, and she is no exception. She is lucky this year because this batch of undried medicinal materials avoided the duty shift, hehe.

When Grandpa Zhu sent the two kids back, he saw his granddaughter's happy face and couldn't help but joked, "What treasure did you find?"

"No," Zhu Yuanyuan shook her head and denied, "I'm just happy to think that I don't have to get up early tomorrow." After spending some time together, Grandpa Zhu naturally knew that his granddaughter was a sleeper, and he immediately complained, "You wish! With all the herbs piled up in the house, how are you going to sleep tonight?"

I'm still sleeping in. It's good enough if I can lie down for a while.

Zhu Yuanyuan disagreed, "If tomorrow doesn't work, there's still the day after tomorrow. The snow season is so long, there's plenty of time to sleep in."

There is nothing wrong with this. Grandpa Zhu smiled and said, "It just so happens that it is not convenient for me to come to the inner city next time. Xiao Ri and Xiao Ye will be handed over to you, my mother. Take good care of them and don't let them get hungry and thin."

Zhu Yuanyuan's forehead was covered with black lines. "I am their mother, how can I treat them badly?"

"It's hard to say," Grandpa Zhu said with a serious face, "During the snowy season, I have nothing to do at home every day, which is the best time to practice martial arts. It's not impossible that I forget to feed them and change their diapers."

Thinking about how unreliable my granddaughter is on weekdays, I feel even more worried.

Zhu Yuanyuan curled her lips, "How about you take them back and raise them?"

"It's not impossible," Grandpa Zhu was excited. "Please prepare some milk powder, and pack up some spare clothes and diapers. Send them to my house before there's snow outside."

"Ah, I was just kidding," Zhu Yuanyuan hurriedly shook her head, her little mouth as sweet as if she had been covered in honey. "Grandpa has been taking care of them for so long and it's hard enough. It's not easy to have some rest. You should practice hard at home. I dare not let the two kids disturb you."

"It's okay. At my age, I can't become a tribal warrior no matter how hard I try. I might as well give my time to you," said Grandpa Zhu.

"Look at what you're talking about," Zhu Yuanyuan said angrily, "Tribal warrior is just a title. If you can earn it, it's a skill. If you can't, it's nothing. And the Beast Yuan Jue can increase personal strength and lifespan. Don't you want to live a few more years or even decades?"

Grandpa Zhu answered honestly, "Yes."

Life is so wonderful, he hasn’t lived enough, of course he wants to live a few more decades, no, even hundreds of years!
"That's it," Zhu Yuanyuan advised earnestly, "Grandpa, you have to think about your own life and spend more time practicing. I'm still young, and it's better for me to take care of the two kids during the snow season..."

After a long chat, she packed up a large leather bag of dried meat, dried fruit, sausages, bacon, etc. and stuffed it into the mosquito coils on the grandfather's eyes. "I'll keep you here for dinner today, otherwise it will be difficult to walk after the snow. You should go back early to accompany grandma~"

Grandpa Zhu walked out of the door in bewilderment, and only reacted after walking a long way away, "If you little girl is reluctant to leave your child at my house, just say so. How can you fool an old man like this?"

It’s really, so bad!

The naughty Zhu Yuanyuan has been changing the poopy diapers of the two pups. Even after changing them many times, she still can't get used to it. "Ugh, it stinks."

It’s better to use a mask to cover it, otherwise I’m afraid I’ll vomit.

After changing into dry diapers, the two cubs calmed down, lying in the cradle, moving their little hands and feet, trying to kick off the thick quilt covering them, their eyes rolling around, carefully distinguishing the surrounding environment.

When Zhu Yuanyuan was teasing the cubs with a rattle, she remembered what was written in the parenting book: they sleep in January, cry in February, and can practice lifting their heads in March. Should she train the two cubs to lift their heads?
Hmm, I haven’t heard the female elders mention it, I’ll have to find some videos to watch.

As early as after she found out she was pregnant, she bought a new tablet in the virtual mall. She agreed with the merchant to give him some extra star coins to help her download dozens of GB of videos related to fetal care and baby care. She only needed to spend some time to find them and learn them.

But the two kids were very energetic. She had to look after them and the medicinal herbs on the kang. She had no time to study for the time being and had to wait for Brother A Shi to come back.

So Zhu Yuanyuan waited and waited, and finally the door was pushed open. She stood up in surprise, "Ah..."
