Chapter 6: Saving the Day

ed him in, just as Xiǎoyuè placed the freshly made soy milk on the table."Since everything is already prepared, it's best to eat these things while they're hot before noon, especially the bean curd ca..."Mother!"

"Mother, are you alright" Zong Yu and Zong Bai, the two brothers, hurriedly surrounded her.

At the same time, he didn't forget to put a towel over his mouth and nose. This surprised Fang Jinshu, no wonder none of the three siblings were infected.

Still have some awareness of epidemic prevention.

Fang Jinshu hurriedly looked around the overgrown areas, she had seen quite a bit of licorice when she went up the mountain.

This medicinal herb is very common and has a good effect on suppressing coughs. There are several plants growing behind the kitchen of our ancestral home.

All three of the Zong siblings were huddled around Mu Yunhe, but no one paid attention to what she was doing.

She turned her back and washed the harvested licorice with spring water, shook it dry, then found a bowl to serve as a mortar and pestle to extract its juice.

Zong Yu had already sent his mother back to the room and put her to bed. Mu Yun He coughed incessantly and still forced Zong Yu to admit...

"You, uh, you say."

"Well then, ahem, should I marry Jinxiu as my wife!"

At this point, Zongyu dared not go against his mother. He had always known that his appearance was not favored by girls, but he didn't want to force anyone.

A forced melon is not sweet, and he has no interest in raising a wife who is afraid of him at home.

Suddenly, Zong Yu's mind flashed with the gaze Fang Jinxiu had just given him, making him feel a little uncertain.

Right now, the priority is to appease him, he readily agreed.

"Well, well, well, I'll marry, can't I"

"Zong Bai, quickly go get some water."

Just then, Fang Jinshu walked in with a cup of licorice juice made with spiritual spring water.

"Don't need water, drink this to stop coughing."

< Zong Yu looked at her in surprise, "Can you heal" >

Fang Jinshu heard the conversation between the mother and son just now, and her heart was deeply moved.

If she were to simply live at her family's home without any recognition, who knows how many rumors and gossip would spread about her in the village.

Mu Yunhe treated her better than her biological parents had. Fang Jinshi was a person of clear love and hate.

Whoever is good to her, she will definitely repay them tenfold.

She wouldn't allow Mu Yunhe to die, not now. Whatever happened between her and Zong Yu in the future was a concern for another time.

"Is this, licorice"

Having tasted the contents of the bowl, Zong Yu looked at her and said.

Fang Jinshu nodded. "That's right."

There is a long-term patient who needs to take medicine at home. Zongyu's three siblings have a certain understanding of ordinary herbs.

They also knew that licorice root could indeed stop coughs, but after all, they weren't doctors. In a moment of panic, they didn't have Fang Jinxiu's calm and collected mind. They simply didn't think of it at the time.

Zongyu confirmed that this thing was indeed drinkable before feeding it to his mother.

After Mu Yunhe finished drinking, she immediately felt a refreshing sensation in her throat, smooth and going down. She cleared her throat and suddenly realized that she was no longer coughing.

"Damn, the cough finally stopped."

This used to be the case; even if you drank medicine, it would take a couple of hours for it to work.

This is the first time I've seen a cough suppressant work this quickly.

They all looked at Fang Jinshi in surprise.

"Wow, sister-in-law, you're so amazing." Zong Bai called his sister-in-law so naturally.

Yulian didn't like the elaborate embroidery on the other side, she remained silent behind her mother.

Zongyu put on a stoic face. He was deeply grateful to Jinxiu, but he had grown accustomed to this expression.

Thank you.

Mrs. Mu glared at her son angrily. He was being so polite to his own wife, acting like a stranger.

She pulled both their hands without a word, placing Fang Jinshiu's small hand into her eldest son's broad and thick palm, kindly holding them together.

"I didn't expect that our Jinshu had such high medical skills."

"You were right to marry me."

Zong Bai was very impressed with his sister-in-law's skills. His mother had been taking medicine for years and had seen countless doctors, but none of them had prescribed medicine that worked as quickly as his sister-in-law's.

Just for that, he was willing to call her sister-in-law.

"Mother's right, sister-in-law is our lucky star, maybe mother's illness will be cured in the future."she just stood there silently without speaking.When Wang, the village head, heard a noise at the door, he hurried out.Upon seeing Fang Jinshi, he slightly restrained his expression and managed to forc...
