"Yes, medicinal materials. Dad, I had this idea before, but because I didn't think clearly about it in all aspects, I didn't mention it to you. But now..."

"Have you thought it through?"

"I have read the medicine book, asked Dr. Xu, and went to the medicine shop to ask about the prices of various medicinal materials, and the price of them sold. I have been going up the mountain these days to find out the wild herbs on the mountain. Dad, the reason why I made this decision was carefully considered."

He Youcai looked at He Ze and lowered his head. He put the cigarette pipe in his mouth and took it off without taking a sip. "It's not that my father doesn't believe you, but our family has always been in contact with this since the ancestors... Although you made money, you and I were paying back the foreign debts. The rest are left. Em and I originally planned to keep the marriage between you and An Ge'er..."

"Dad, I'm still young, why are you doing so urgently?" He An, who had been sitting beside him, picked up a piece of pastry and put it into his mouth. He waited until he swallowed it and continued, "Brother has a good idea. You used to force him to study, but Brother, but he doesn't like it. Now he has something he wants to do. Isn't that a good thing?"

After the words came to his voice, He An blinked at He Ze, picked up another piece of chestnut cake and shook it in front of him. He Ze knew it, there was a smile on his face, and then nodded gently.

He Youcai looked at the little movements of his two brothers and his brows stretched out, but he didn't feel angry. "Brother An has grown up, and he won't help his father, but he will only help you brother. My father's heart is so painful!"

After saying that, he patted his chest, looking heartbroken.

He Ze and He An looked at each other, and each picked up a piece of pastry and handed it to the plate in front of He Youcai, and said in unison, "Dad, you eat it."

“…”

He Youcai lost his words and then snorted coldly, but the smile on his face could not be concealed.

He Ze continued to work hard, "Dad, it's not expensive to plant medicinal materials in this piece of land, it's just a lot of effort. Besides, I'm already eighteen, and I don't want to say that my family is not successful, so I have to find something for myself, right? It's too unreasonable to keep you two old people."

"You still know you?" He Youcai glanced at him sideways, then took a sip of cigarettes before saying, "You are so happy now. When you come back from the academy, I asked you to learn how to do carpenter work with me. At that time, you were unhappy at that time. I was still thinking about what you will do in the future... Okay, the man in my He family must have this ambition. Since you have this confidence, I will discuss with him when you come back."

"Dad, then I'm waiting for good news!"

He Ze poured He Youcai a cup of tea as if he was pleased and pushed it in front of him. The latter took a sip with a smile on his face.

Taking advantage of the time when He Youcai was drinking tea, He An gave He Ze a thumbs up, and He Ze picked up a piece of chestnut cake and blocked him.

He An didn't stop talking, and after a while, he couldn't speak clearly, "Brother, how could you do this..."

He Ze laughed, and did not answer again. He just turned his eyes around and then stopped on the firewood pile by the courtyard wall, including firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea... This simple joy of life made him forget the ten years of the end of the world.

But, it's pretty good. Now, it's really pretty good.

Time passed quickly, and I didn't know how He Youcai told Li that night. The next morning, Li called He Ze aside and stuffed ten taels of silver into his hands.

The nineteen taels he brought back last time, plus the two taels of Wei Quan a few days ago, the family had about twenty taels of silver. But before, Li said that the family still owed three or four taels of silver. If they were all paid back, there would be almost five taels left.

Five taels of silver are not much, but it is enough to ensure that the family of four has a year of food, drink and flowers. But first of all, I am afraid that something will happen to the family. Secondly, he now uses a piece of land to grow medicinal materials, so the family only has three pieces of land. However, the vegetable field at the entrance of the village is only suitable for growing vegetables, and two pieces of grain for four people are obviously not enough.

A piece of land costs about two taels of silver. He probably will have to add a few more pieces of medicinal land next year. If you want to buy it now, you will definitely have to buy a few more pieces.

Or...it's time for him to find a way to make some money?

He Ze's mind was circling, and before he could come back to his senses, he asked Li to take him to have breakfast. Today was another sunny day, and when the family put down the bowls and chopsticks, the sun had already shone into the room.

Due to the heavy rain two days ago, although the time was short and only a few grains fell scattered, Li was anxious, and He Youcai also followed them to the field.

He Youcai and He An walked in front with a sickle, while He Ze and Li were carrying baskets behind. On the way, they met many villagers. They thought that everyone had the same thoughts, but they were afraid that another heavy rain would cause them to ruin the harvest, which would be a fatal matter.

Due to irrigation problems, the grains and fields of the villagers are connected together. Occasionally, a gust of autumn wind will bring golden rice waves to the wind, which makes people feel happy.

The two pieces of land are about two acres, and it takes two days for a family of four to collect.

Because there is no machine, everyone first cuts the mature millet seedlings and drys them, and then threshs them manually - in a larger ladder-shaped wooden frame, hold a handful of millet seedlings and keep hitting the frame until the grains fall off.

The sun was very fierce, and He Ze took the job of carrying the cut grains home. In the past two days, not only was he tired, but his skin also disappeared from the whiteness and weakness he had before. He looked much stronger.

Li felt a little distressed, but He Ze finally felt relieved.

In two days, the rice waves that could not be seen were only sparse, one piece on the other side, and it was very empty. So when He Youcai, Li and Xiao An returned home, and when He Ze came to pick up the last two baskets of millet seedlings from the field, Lin Yu's limping back clearly entered his sight.

After putting all the millet seedlings in the field into the basket, He Ze took the sickle and headed towards Lin Yu over there.

"He Ze? The ones in your field have been collected?"

When He Ze came over, it was probably because his ankle was still injured. Lin Yu was kneeling on the ground to cut millet seedlings. His clothes were covered with mud and his knees were a little sunken.

He noticed a sudden shadow in front of him, and then he raised his head and had some mud on his face.

"...The injury has not healed yet, why are you in a hurry to come out?" He Ze lowered his head and looked at him with a complicated look.

"Are you afraid of heavy rain again? The villagers have accepted it. If our family doesn't accept it, Emu is anxious, so..."

"So you're kneeling here?"

He Ze suddenly bent down and supported his arm. The latter paused and stood up.

"...Well, kneel down and feel more comfortable. I can't stand after bent down for a long time," Lin Yu curled his lips, as if explaining, "My injury has almost healed, really."

He Ze did not answer, but just had a cold face, looking for a piece of grass on the ridge of the field to help Lin Yu sit down. His hand gently swept the green grass, as if a faint green fluorescence flashed by, and rushed into Lin Yu's body one after another.

Lin Yu was unaware of anything.

"You sit down first, can you die if you are tired and rest for a while?"

He knelt down and cut millet seedlings, only Lin Yu could do this. When he saw it, he almost thought that he had done something extremely sinful.

Lin Yu didn't speak, but just looked up at him and immediately lowered his head. This was the first time He Ze saw his guilty appearance, and finally couldn't help laughing, "Okay, it's still early now, I'll cut you for a while, by the way, where is Aunt Lin?"

He Ze's eyes turned around, but he did not notice Zhang's figure.

"I don't want you to cut it for me..." Lin Yu shook his head and then continued, "Em has returned with a basket of millet seedlings. It will take a little longer to come back."

Because his foot injury was not healed, Emu had to follow him to the ground. But Emu's health had improved a lot recently, so he didn't stop him.

And just now, he only built half a basket, not heavy, so he should be able to handle it.

"Okay, sit well and rest for a while and your feet will feel comfortable."

"Hey! He Ze..."

Seeing that He Ze had already picked up the sickle and headed inside, Lin Yu called him, but the latter did not react at all.

He Ze was very fast, but in a short while he cut a large piece of land.

Lin Yu sat there as if he was sitting on pins and needles. He Ze seemed to feel something when he wanted to stand up several times. He would always look back at him, and he was awkward for some reason.

After looking around several times, Lin Yu wanted to bury He Ze's face into the millet sees someone looking here.

Why does a man help collect their family's millet seedlings, the more he thinks, the more he becomes, the more wrong it becomes?

"Brother Yu, why are you sitting here? Are you tired?"

A voice came, and Lin Yu came to his senses. Zhang was carrying a basket standing next to him. When his eyes touched him, his face suddenly changed, "You... weren't you falling? I'm still fine when I went back..."

Zhang said, then put the basket down, grabbed Lin Yu's shoulder with both hands, and frowned.

"No," Lin Yu waved his hand quickly, "I was a little anxious when I came here just now. It was splashing mud and water."

"Really? You kid too..."

"Okay, Emu, I'll just sit here to rest for a while, it's okay." Lin Yu smiled on his face.

"It's fine. You are the lifeblood of Emu. There can't be anything," Zhang looked at Lin Yu several times again. Seeing that there was nothing unusual, he finally felt relieved. But his eyes changed, his expression froze, and his eyes widened, "Then... who is that?"

“…Yes, He Ze.”

"He family boy?" Zhang turned around, "Why is he in our field?"

"He said... he said that his land was collected and he helped me cut it... for a while..." Lin Yu pursed the corner of his lips, his voice intermittently.

"This...this is so inappropriate!"

Zhang looked at He Ze's back again, took off his shoes and got off the ground. Lin Yu was anxious and quickly stood up and followed.

When he was together, he sensitively found that his wounds did not seem to hurt at all. Lin Yu didn't have time to be happy, but just walked faster.

"Aunt Lin, are you back?"

He Ze saw them coming, and stopped harvesting millet seedlings, and stood up straight.

"He family... He family boy, why are you in my field? Where are you from your family? Have you collected it?"

"Well, I've finished collecting it. Didn't Lin Yu still hurt his feet? I'll come and help him."

"This... Aunt Lin thanks you first, go back quickly!" Zhang said and pushed He Ze, "What if others see this!"

"Aunt Lin..."

"He family boy, I know what you mean. Just listen to Aunt Lin and go back quickly. Now everyone in the village is here. You run to our house to collect food for us. Others may think what they think! It is not a good thing for you or Brother Yu!"

Zhang pushed He Ze a little more force. The latter paused and then left his hand away, "Aunt Lin, if you are for this reason, you can tell them directly that you hired me as a helper, wouldn't that be enough?"

If the family with a little more surplus in the village is not enough during the autumn harvest, they will hire one or two strong men to help and get some wages.

"this……"

"He Ze, go back quickly!" Seeing Zhang's face hesitation, Lin Yu stepped forward and held his arm a few more steps, and then said, "My feet don't hurt anymore. Such a little work is not a problem, don't worry."

“…It doesn’t hurt anymore?”

However, he should have cured Lin Yu as soon as possible, otherwise it would not delay the Lin family's collection of food.

"It's really no pain, you go back." Lin Yu pointed his head.

"Okay, I'll take good care of my injuries. I'd like to ask you for a little help in two days, so I'll leave first."

Little busy? What's busy?

Lin Yu was stunned for a moment, and looked up at He Ze who had walked away. Zhang looked at He Ze's back, and his doubts became heavier in his eyes.

The author has something to say: Lin Yu: Everyone asks you to chase me.

He Ze: No.

Lin Yu: Yes, say it again.

He Ze: Wife, I have to build a house and buy a car to chase you, oh oh oh oh oh oh
