Eating melons

Chapter 113 Learning

After breakfast, everyone started to get busy. Wu Mei, Liu Jiaojiao and Yu Xi were busy piling up firewood.

Li Zhibin and Xiao Xuemu had disappeared. Wei Wei and Jiang Qi guessed that they had either gone up the mountain or to the black market in town.

Wei Wei and Jiang Qi guessed correctly. Li Zhibin and Xiao Xuemu did go to the black market in the town to sell goods and purchase medicinal materials.

Wei Wei and Jiang Qi were the only two idle people, but they were not idle either. The pig stomach they got from Xiao Xuemu yesterday also needed to be processed.

This thing must be cleaned before eating. Although Li Zhibin and Xiao Xuemu have washed it, it is still not very clean.

Wei Wei and Jiang Qi rubbed the wild boar stomachs repeatedly with salt and flour to remove impurities and odors until they were clean and odorless. In order to process the two wild boar stomachs, the two used a small bag of flour.

They had to wash it secretly. After all, if people saw them washing the pig's stomach with snow-white flour, they would probably be drowned in saliva.

Wash the red dates, wolfberries, astragalus, codonopsis, and atractylodes, and remove the pits from the red dates for later use.

Cut a piece of wild boar stomach and put it into a casserole with all the ingredients. Add enough water and simmer it slowly on a small stove with coal.

The two men stewed the wild boar stomach there and had no intention of going out to earn money.

There was no other way. After seeing the huge profits from selling ginseng, both of them lost interest in those small businesses. Not only did they earn little money, but it was also very tiring.

Jiang Qi thought that he had changed six ginseng roots during this period, which was a bit eye-catching.

Just wait until your eyes are not so big anymore and then change them. They have money and things, so they don’t have to worry about not being able to buy them.

As for those minor fights, now that she has ginseng, she really doesn't want to get involved in them.

She has hardly stopped working since she went to the countryside. She is tired and wants to take a rest.

Now there are easier ways to make money, why not do it! There is no need to endure the hardship.

However, Wei Wei placed her hopes on Xiao Xuemu, hoping that he could help her get some ginseng.

If Xiao Xuemu wants to cooperate next time, I will try to exchange for a few more ginsengs of a higher age.

As for those small amounts of money, sorry, she was tired and didn't want to move.

There was no other way before because we had no money, so we had to try every possible way to make money.

Now that there is an easy way to make money quickly, there is no need to suffer.

If you come across something that you can easily earn money from, such as picking up some wild vegetables when weeding in the fields next year, if you can do something easily, then just do it.

There would be no need to go out for a whole day to pick wild vegetables to sell like before.

Wei Wei and Jiang Qi were not idle in the afternoon either. They were doing one important thing, which was studying.

That’s right, it’s about studying. After being in the countryside for so long, the two finally remembered about studying.

I had always said that I wanted to study, but after going to the countryside, I first had to adapt to working, and then there was the autumn harvest, and I had to find ways to make money. I kept putting off studying and didn't make any progress.

Now that I have time, it’s time to get my study schedule up to speed.

Now the two of them have heavy study tasks. Not only do they have to learn textbook knowledge, but they also have to learn the red songs, the Little Red Book, and quotations from great men of the time.

I don’t know if it’s because we’ve been away from school and high school for too long, but now when we suddenly see knowledge, both of us feel a little overwhelmed.

I see that the knowledge points are all things that I am somewhat familiar with, but I just can’t remember them and I don’t know how to do them.

At this moment, both of them thought of a sentence, "Where have I seen this sister before?"

The most confusing subject is politics. I don’t know how the current exams are divided into arts and science subjects, but I heard that politics will be tested on all subjects. I don’t know if it’s true.

You have to learn it whether it's true or not, but this thing is really mind-boggling.

Not only politics, but also Russian. This thing is completely clueless. I just hope that Russian will not be tested in the college entrance examination.

The two of them couldn't learn it, so they stopped forcing themselves for the time being. Being fat doesn't happen overnight, and learning can't be achieved overnight.

If you can't learn it, just take your time. There is still time. Anyway, they don't plan to get into Tsinghua University or Peking University. They know their own strengths and weaknesses.

It is said that time travel and rebirth will not change a person's brain or make him smarter, and this is indeed true.

Wei Wei and Jiang Qi both felt that they were not smart people, but just ordinary people.

The world is so big, China has such a large population, and there are many geniuses. They don’t think they can compare with those people.

Neither of them felt that they could compare with those who were in the first and second batches of people who were admitted to Peking University and Tsinghua University.

Therefore, they do not set high expectations for themselves, and the best thing they can do is to pass the exam and pass it in one go.

It doesn’t matter if you don’t pass the exam. Just keep working hard and there will always be a way to leave here.

However, if you pass the exam, you can go out early. After all, there are no ID cards in this era, and you need a letter of introduction to go anywhere, which makes it inconvenient to go out.

If they can pass the exam, they can go directly to Guangzhou to study at university, which will make things much easier after the reform and opening up.
