Fish Leaping Farm Gate

Chapter 173 Big Green Root

There are several options for this kind of herb, but if it is to be planted, it is still based on economic benefits.

Du Xiaoyu flipped through the books in his hand, remembering the selling prices of various herbal medicines in the pharmacy, and took a long time to select the most suitable one.

That is Daqinggen!

Daqinggen, also known as Radix Isatidis in later generations, is a medicinal herb that is widely used and sold for a long time. It is an annual and is mostly used for clearing away heat and detoxifying, cooling blood and reducing swelling.

Just plant this, Du Xiaoyu made a final decision.

Calculating the time, it was the time when Banlangen was blooming and bearing seeds. On the second day, she took a few dogs and carried a small bamboo basket and went to the mountains to search for medicine.

Over the past few years, because her money has gradually become more abundant, she no longer goes to the mountains to collect herbs and sell them for money. She can't remember the places where she often went to dig herbs, and only found a few plants after walking for a while.

Going around the mountainside, I finally found a spot with a lot of Banlangen, but I saw an old man with white beard and hair staring at her aggressively, shouting, "This is all mine, you can find it elsewhere!"

It was like a child marking the land as his own territory, Du Xiaoyu was angry and funny, so he ignored him, bent down and dug out a banlangen plant beside him.

The old man was so angry that he jumped, "You girl, how dare you not listen to me? Still robbing me?"

"Your? Did you mark it?"

Seeing her talk back, the old man became even more furious, and stepped forward two steps, "Which family are you from, and you don't even ask who I am? Does your family raise cattle? Do you raise sheep? Do you raise pigs?"

This is really inexplicable, Du Xiaoyu said, "What does my family raise is none of your business?"

"Okay, okay, you name it! Which one is it from?" The old man blew his beard and stared, "In the future, if your cattle, sheep and pigs are sick, don't come to me! Do you understand? Go back and tell your parents and see if they are okay. hit you hard!"

"Veterinarian?" Du Xiaoyu blinked twice, suddenly laughed, pointed at the old man and said, "You are the veterinarian in our village, so what, what is Dr. Zhu?" I have heard of this name, but Du Xiaoyu's family None of the cattle and sheep have ever been sick, so they have never had any contact with this doctor Zhu.

I just didn't expect it to be such a virtue...

"What are you laughing at, you girl doesn't know the heights of the sky and the earth!" Doctor Zhu said angrily, "Which livestock in this village is not the old man's favorite? Tell me quickly, which family do you belong to?"

"Are these big green roots used to treat livestock?" Du Xiaoyu asked without answering, "If you need it urgently, I won't snatch it from you, but those seeds are useless if you want them, why don't you give them to me."

"Seed?" Dr. Zhu looked at her, "What do you want for it?"

"Seeds have to be planted, of course."

Dr. Zhu gasped, and took a closer look at her, "You are not the honeysuckle girl from the Du family, are you?"

It turns out that she is quite famous, and the veterinarian in the village knows it too. She smiled and said, "Yes, I also want to try various things to see if it works."

Dr. Zhu was not interested in how to grow herbs. He stared at her and asked, "I heard that you are self-taught and learned how to treat rabbits?"

When it came to this topic, the old man in front of him seemed to be a different person and became more serious.

"Probably." She couldn't say that it was easy to get it because she knew something in her previous life, so she had to admit it.

He is really talented. Dr. Zhu's eyes became brighter. That rabbit is not easy to treat. He has been a veterinarian for decades and has never heard of a veterinarian who treats a rabbit. But recently, because of the little girl in front of him, the rabbit owner More and more, restaurants in the county often see rabbit meat, not to mention rabbit skin sold in various counties.

"Girl, what books did you learn from?"

Du Xiaoyu frowned, what is he going to do, asking such a detailed question?

Seeing this, Dr. Zhu hurriedly brought over his bamboo basket, in which a lot of Radix isatidis had been dug out, "If you want seeds, I'll give them to you."

That's about the same, anyway, it doesn't matter if you tell him these things, Du Xiaoyu replied while peeling the seeds, "It's just Simu An Ji Ji, Qi Min's essential skills, elbow backup for emergencies and so on."

"It doesn't talk about treating rabbits." Doctor Zhu knows these books very well, and he has already memorized them by heart.

"Yi Li Tong, Bai Li Tong, some medicines can be used by humans and animals, why can't rabbits use cattle and sheep?"

Dr. Zhu turned his head and thought for a while, "I heard that you went around to treat rabbits, and you wrote a lot of prescriptions and made pills yourself, right?" He already knew about Du Xiaoyu, and he also thought that she was treating rabbits. Has Rabbit's method formed a complete set of theories? I once wanted to meet him at home, but the time was not yet ripe, but I didn't expect to meet him in the mountains today.

Du Xiaoyu became alarmed when she heard this, "Why are you asking this? You treat your cattle and sheep, and I treat my rabbits. Let's keep the water in the well." She looked down at the seeds, and turned to leave.

Doctor Zhu chuckled behind him, "When it comes to planting herbs, no one can compare to me!"

She immediately stopped, "You know how to grow herbs? Then what else do you come to pick on the mountain?"

"You don't understand this. When it comes to medicinal effects, how can the self-grown ones be better than the wild ones? As a veterinarian, the old man is naturally responsible for the livestock. What kind of herbal medicine is good, you have to use what kind of herbal medicine. .”

It is indeed better to absorb the essence of the mountains and forests in the wild than to pour fertilizers. Du Xiaoyu also agrees, but judging from Dr. Zhu's actions earlier, he is obviously a difficult person to get along with, but just now he gave her seeds and said When it comes to planting herbs, what is the intention?She was curious.

Dr. Zhu saw that she didn't ask any questions, and he was thinking too much in his mind.

"Daqing root is not something difficult to grow." After leaving this sentence, Du Xiaoyu turned around and walked away. The old man was whetting his appetite, and she couldn't be fooled.

Now Dr. Zhu became anxious, "Hey, little girl, why are you running away? I still have something to ask you!"

Du Xiaoyu ran faster, and there was no one in sight.

Back in the yard, she wiped off her sweat and took out the seeds of Daqinggen. The weather was right and they were planted together with honeysuckle, but the field had to be re-cultivated.

"Father, get me a field tomorrow, and widen the row spacing."

Du Xian asked strangely, "Why?"

Du Xiaoyu talked about the idea, Du Xian nodded again and again, and said with a smile, "Okay, okay, I'll do it tomorrow morning, you girl has so many ideas."

When Zhao Dongzhi knew about this, she couldn't help but praise herself, saying that it was all due to her.

When the two families sat down for dinner in the evening, Du Xiaoyu asked about the veterinarian, Dr. Wang, and said that she met him in the mountains, and that Dr. Wang was lonely, and he would not dig up the herbs around him.

A few people disagreed, Zhao Dongzhi pouted and said, "I heard that this is the virtue, but the medical skills are very good, so I let him, otherwise one day my pigs and cattle are sick, who can I ask to see."

"It's so good, other veterinarians can't do it?" Du Xiaoyu asked.

"Regardless of his age, his medical skills are number one in the county. Just ask Mrs. Wu and you'll know. Even the horses of the county head's family are asked to see him, and he has also accepted several disciples. " Du Xian also said a few words, but looked at Du Xiaoyu, and smiled again, "But our Xiaoyu is also good, he can cure rabbits, but he can't."

It turned out that he was so arrogant only if he had the capital, Du Xiaoyu couldn't help shaking his head when he thought of the old man's face.

After widening the row spacing in the three-acre field, the honeysuckle branches prepared earlier were used for cuttings, and then the big green roots were sown. It took four or five days to complete the work.

At this moment, the honeysuckle originally planted bloomed, and the day of the government examination was getting closer and closer.

Zhao Dongzhi didn't go to the restaurant again recently, and took care of Huang Lishu wholeheartedly at home, stewing chicken soup for him every day, his face just got a little fatter.

He wasn't handsome in the first place, but if he got so fat, the consequences would be serious.

"I think you'd better eat less, your double chin will come out." Du Xiaoyu couldn't help reminding him, "Although boys don't need to care too much about their appearance, it's not a good thing to be full of fat." She paused Dun, "I heard from Li Gen that you went to the north again yesterday? Did you meet Qinglan? She often goes to the mountains to cut grass and feed the rabbits."

Huang Lishu almost spit out a mouthful of soup, put down the soup bowl and didn't want to drink anymore, urged, "Go back quickly, don't disturb my reading here."

He must have seen it, seeing how blushing he was, Du Xiaoyu thought about it, and went out to find Zhao Dongzhi.

Zhao Dongzhi obviously didn't notice this, so she decided to test it out, and said, "Auntie, if my cousin is admitted as a scholar, what kind of wife are you going to find for him?"

Zhao Dongzhi looked at her and giggled, "You haven't settled your own affairs yet, so you care about Li Shu?"

Du Xiaoyu said earnestly, "Li Shu is my cousin, isn't it normal to be concerned? My cousin mentioned it last time, and she is also worried about this brother."

"This child is just worrying about nothing. If he gets married, he can care about his husband. Li Shu has a mother like me watching over him. What about marrying a daughter-in-law? Li Shu is still young. Even if he is admitted as a scholar, he will have to take the Juren exam later." If you have to have one, it must be from the county." Zhao Dongzhi looked forward to it, "Every lady is the best...Xiaoyu, tell me, if Li Shu can be a good man or something, even if he is from the capital Miss is not too much, is she?"

Du Xiaoyu had a headache and asked, "What should I do if my cousin falls in love with a girl in the village?"

Zhao Dongzhi immediately raised her eyebrows, "He dares!" She frowned as she spoke, "You mean..."

Du Xiaoyu quickly laughed, "I'm just joking, my cousin is so absorbed in his studies that he can meet some girl when he has time."

"That's true." Zhao Dongzhi was very satisfied with his son's hard work.

Du Xiaoyu hurriedly said goodbye and went home.

Zhao Dongzhi's vision of picking a daughter-in-law is too high. It seems that it is really necessary to tell Huang Xiaoying that if Huang Lishu falls into it and Zhao Dongzhi refuses to live or die, it is hard to imagine what the consequences will be.

And Qinglan's mother, Mrs. Dong, is scheming. If she knew about this, she might do something about it. She should go to the county as soon as possible.
