Chapter 169 Mint Tea



Chapter 169 Mint Tea

At this time, the village chief picked up the bowl and took a sip.

Two breaths later after he swallowed it, the village chief's expression suddenly became surprised.

He asked with great interest: "Yueyue, what kind of tea did you make? Why do I feel a cool and refreshing feeling in my mouth after swallowing it?"

When Uncle Jiang Chenghai heard what the village chief said, he quickly picked up the bowl and took a sip.

After swallowing, he took another deep breath and said quickly: "After drinking, take a deep breath, and you will feel cool from your throat to your heart, and you will feel very comfortable."

Qin also quickly picked up the bowl, covered her face and took a sip.

After drinking it, she closed her eyes and took a deep breath. When she opened her eyes again, she was shocked.

She turned around and said to her grandmother Zheng: "Sister-in-law, you should try drinking a few sips quickly."

After Qin finished speaking, she quickly picked up the bowl and took another sip.

Seeing that everyone was praising the drink, Grandmother Zheng picked up the bowl with some doubt, covered her face and took a sip.

——A moment later.

Grandma nodded repeatedly and said with a smile: "It's true! After drinking this tea, I feel refreshed."

An Yue calmly explained to everyone: "This is called mint tea. It has the effect of clearing away heat and dissipating heat from our body, refreshing the mind, and calming the mind and removing dryness."

Everyone was listening to An Yue attentively.

An Yue continued, "The summer is too hot. I work in the fields for too long and stay in the sun. After returning home, I often feel dizzy, nauseous, and have chest tightness and shortness of breath?"

At this point, everyone nodded.

"When you go out to do farm work, you can bring some mint tea, which has the effect of clearing away heat and dissipating heat."

They talked to each other excitedly, with excited expressions on their faces as if they had found a panacea.

An Yue said playfully to everyone, "However, Yueyue only said to relieve the feeling. If you feel uncomfortable, you still have to go to the town to find a doctor for treatment. Fever cannot be taken lightly, it can be fatal!"

An Yue opened a small class for them. Everyone was talking to each other and before they knew it, it was almost noon.

Grandma said, "It's noon now, we should make lunch!"

An Nian, who was sitting nearby and listening with great interest, stood up and ran towards the kitchen, saying as he ran, "Come and deliver the firewood every year."

Everyone couldn't help but laugh when they saw how actively he was helping.

Immediately afterwards, An Yue, her grandmother and Qin also followed and walked towards the kitchen.

Grandma and Qin picked and washed vegetables together, while An Yue watched over the pot and cut vegetables behind the stove.

Grandfather remembered that An Yue had told him before that the long stone slabs should be laid on the pigpen and the toilet.

Considering that it was unsafe for the brother and sister to go to the toilet from the back, the three of them discussed and decided to move in those long stone slabs and pave the toilet.

There was lively conversation and laughter in the kitchen, and everyone had a smile on their face.

After a while, the aroma of cooking oil filled the kitchen and spread throughout the yard.

At noon, lunch was ready.

An Nian ran to call them to eat: "Uncle, grandfather, uncle, it's time for lunch!"

The village chief responded, "Okay, okay, we'll be right there."

The three of them put down their work, washed their hands, and everyone sat down around the eight-immortal table, happily eating the warm house-warming meal together.

……

After lunch.

An Yue, Qin, and my grandmother collected the dishes and took them to the kitchen to wash, while my grandfather and the village chief sat under the eaves smoking their pipes.

After my grandfather and the village chief finished smoking their pipes, they got up and started carrying long stone slabs to prepare for paving the pigpen.

After An Yue and the others finished washing the dishes, they also went to help.

——An hour later.

With the combined efforts of several people, the pigpen and toilet above the septic tank were finally paved with stone slabs.

Everyone washed their hands, sat in the main hall to rest for a while, and drank some mint tea.

Village chief Li Huairen took a sip of mint tea and said, "There is something I would like to ask Brother Jiang for help."

Jiang Wuwen said politely: "It's okay for the village chief to speak frankly."

"That day when Yueyue and I went to the county government office to get the land deed, the chief clerk specifically mentioned that he wanted to visit Baili Village and try the dishes cooked by Yueyue."

Jiang Wuwen asked doubtfully, "Did you say when you will come?"

Village chief Li Huairen looked a little solemn. He shook his head and said, "I've been thinking about this matter over and over again. I always feel that if the chief clerk wants to come, we have to prepare in advance, but..."

The village chief paused for a moment, spread his hands helplessly, and continued, "It's just that I really don't know when the chief clerk will be here. I know that Brother Jiang has a wide network of contacts, so I would like to ask Brother Jiang to ask someone to find out about the chief clerk's recent travel plans."

Jiang Wuwen narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "I will take the letter to the county town in the next two days and ask Chief Lin to help ask, but I don't know whether I can find out the answer or not."

Hearing Jiang Wuwen's agreement, the village chief Li Huairen hurriedly bowed his hands and thanked him, saying, "We can certainly find out by asking Chief Lin. I'm here, so I'd like to thank you in advance."

"You're welcome, village chief. If the chief clerk comes, I'll have to trouble you two to take good care of the siblings. Yueyue is still a half-grown child, and her words and actions are still immature."

"Don't worry, brother. My husband and I have already treated these two children as our own."

"Okay, okay, okay, that's it, very good, very good!"

The village chief winked at Qin, slowly stood up, saluted and said, "Brother, sister-in-law, we will go back now."

Qin also stood up and patted the brother and sister's arms gently, saying, "Nian Nian, Yue Yue, you will have to live on your own from now on. If you encounter any difficulties, just come and look for your uncle and aunt."

The brother and sister nodded gratefully.

Then, the village head and his wife walked towards the gate of the yard.

As the sun sets, birds return to their nests.

My grandfather and others are also preparing to return to the Jiang family.

Grandmother Zheng squatted down, hugged An Nian and An Yue in her arms, and gently said, "Yue Yue, you will be the head of this family from now on. Be careful in everything, and remember to close the door and windows when you go out and come in."

She turned around and told An Nian, "Niannian, listen to your sister in the future. Now, you are the man of this family. You must study hard in school and help your sister when you come home."

After saying that, my grandmother slowly stood up, her movements were slow and a little laborious.

The brother and sister had red eyes and nodded repeatedly.

After seeing their grandfather and his family off, the brother and sister stood at the gate of the yard and rested for a while.

The brother and sister stared at this new home for a long time without saying a word.

Suddenly, the brother and sister smiled at each other, and then they ran towards their rooms like arrows.

The brother and sister ran to the doors of the two western wing rooms and suddenly stopped.
