Chapter 453: The Farmer Girl is Pregnant 5
Meng Qiqi stretched out and lay in the soft quilt, feeling happy.
It seems that in the world of "The Happy Farmer Girl", not only can you eat sweet melons, but you can also make a lot of money and live a comfortable life. It is becoming more and more interesting.
Ever since she stood up for justice in the town last time, Meng Qiqi's reputation in the village has changed dramatically.
Before, everyone thought she was a poor orphan, but now, they think she is a bit "mysterious" and even a bit "difficult to mess with."
Especially Meng Lao San and Liu Cuihua. Ever since they heard that Meng Qiqi had electrocuted Master Wang's servant in the town, they no longer dared to come to her house to cause trouble and would avoid her whenever they saw her.
Meng Qiqi was very satisfied with this. If they didn't bother her, she naturally wouldn't bother paying attention to these clowns.
In the following days, Meng Qiqi "took care" of the wasteland behind the village while secretly planting medicinal herbs in the space.
With the blessing of the spiritual spring water, ginseng and angelica grow very fast.
Not long after, the first batch of medicinal herbs in the space matured.
Meng Qiqi's eyes widened as she looked at the excellent quality ginseng and angelica in the space.
This looks even better than what she saw in the documentary!
She carefully dug out the herbs, washed them thoroughly, then wrapped them in a clean cloth and hid them in the space.
That day, she guessed that Lin Mo's grandmother should have been taking medicine for a few days, and she didn't know if she was getting better, so she wanted to go and see.
She took out some lean meat and eggs from the space, preparing to nourish Lin Mo's grandmother.
As soon as I reached the door of Lin Mo's house, I heard coughing from inside, and Lin Mo's anxious voice: "Grandma, how are you?"
Meng Qiqi's heart tightened and she quickly pushed the door open and went in.
Lin Mo's grandmother was lying on the bed, her face pale and coughing violently. Lin Mo was patting her back helplessly.
"Brother Lin Mo, how is grandma?" Meng Qiqi quickly put down the things in her hands and walked to the bed.
When Lin Mo saw Meng Qiqi, he felt like he had seen a savior and said anxiously, "Qiqi, my grandma still has a severe cough after taking the medicine. What should I do?"
Lin Mo's grandmother saw Meng Qiqi and smiled weakly: "Qiqi is here... I made you worried..."
Meng Qiqi touched Grandma Lin Mo's forehead, which was a little hot.
She frowned. Her cold had worsened and she had a slight fever.
It seems that the barefoot doctor in the village can no longer be relied upon, so we have to go to the town to hire a better doctor.
However, Lin Mo had just used the money from selling paintings to buy medicine, and now he definitely had no money to see a doctor.
Meng Qiqi thought for a moment and said, "Brother Lin Mo, don't worry. I have some money here. Go to town and find a good doctor."
As she spoke, she wanted to take money out of her pocket.
Lin Mo quickly stopped her: "Qiqi, how can this be possible? You don't have much money..."
"Oh, Brother Lin Mo, now is not the time to talk about this. Grandma's illness is more important!" Meng Qiqi stuffed the money into Lin Mo's hand without saying anything, "You go quickly, I'll take care of grandma here."
Lin Mo looked at Meng Qiqi's determined eyes, then looked at his grandmother who was coughing non-stop on the bed. He gritted his teeth and nodded: "Okay! Qiqi, thank you! I'll go right away!"
After saying that, he ran out in a hurry.
Meng Qiqi looked at Lin Mo's back, then looked at her weak grandmother lying on the bed, and made a decision in her heart.
She took out a medium-quality angelica from the space and some spiritual spring water.
Angelica can invigorate blood circulation and replenish blood, while Lingquan water can enhance immunity and relieve cough.
However, you can't take out the angelica directly, as it will be too conspicuous.
She thought about it, walked to the kitchen, and saw cooked porridge and some cabbage in the pot.
She quietly cut the angelica into thin slices, dropped a few drops of spiritual spring water into the porridge, and then brought it to the bedside.
"Grandma, please drink some porridge first. I added some good things for you. It's good for your health."
Lin Mo's grandmother looked at the porridge in the bowl, which seemed to have a fainter medicinal aroma than usual. She looked at Meng Qiqi gratefully, struggled to sit up, and drank it in small sips.
Strangely enough, after drinking a few mouthfuls of porridge, she felt her throat felt much more comfortable and her cough was relieved a little.
"Qiqi, this porridge..." Lin Mo's grandmother looked at Meng Qiqi in surprise.
Meng Qiqi smiled and said, "Grandma, this is a kind of herb I dug up in the mountains. It's called Angelica sinensis. It has some blood-tonifying effect. I saw that you looked unwell, so I added a little to the porridge. If you like it, I'll make it for you later."
She deliberately described angelica as something very ordinary, saying it was just a common blood-tonifying herb.
Lin Mo's grandmother nodded: "It tastes good. After drinking it, I feel much better. Qiqi, you are such a good child..."
As he spoke, the old man's eyes turned red.
Meng Qiqi quickly comforted her: "Grandma, don't say that. Brother Lin Mo has always taken care of me. This is what I should do."
As the two were talking, Lin Mo came back with an old doctor carrying a medicine box.
The old doctor took Lin Mo's grandmother's pulse, looked at her tongue coating, and frowned: "The old lady has a cold that has entered her body. She has a fever. The previous medicine was too mild and it can't suppress it."
Lin Mo quickly asked, "Doctor, what should we do? You must save my grandma!"
The old doctor sighed: "We need some good medicine, but it's not cheap..."
Lin Mo gritted his teeth and said, "Doctor, just prescribe the medicine. I will find a way to pay it no matter how much it costs!"
The old doctor nodded, wrote a prescription and handed it to Lin Mo: "This is the prescription. It contains several expensive medicines. Go to the pharmacy to get them."
Lin Mo took the prescription, took a look at it, and his face suddenly turned pale.
Several of the medicines listed above were priced high, and if you calculated it, you wouldn't be able to buy them without a few taels of silver.
The money he had was only enough to buy one or two of the medicines.
Meng Qiqi saw this and sighed inwardly.
It seems that it's time to show some real skills.
She walked up to the old doctor and said, "Doctor, I have some medicinal herbs here. Can you see if they can be used?"
As she spoke, she took out a piece of angelica of excellent quality from her arms (actually from the space) and handed it to the old doctor.
The old doctor took the angelica and looked at it carefully. His eyes suddenly lit up: "Hiss... This... Is this wild angelica? And it's of such good quality, it's really rare!"
He sniffed it again and praised it highly: "Good medicine! Good medicine! With this angelica, the old man's illness can be cured!"
Lin Mo and his grandmother were both stunned.
How could Meng Qiqi have such good angelica?
Meng Qiqi pretended to be embarrassed and said, "I accidentally found this when I was chopping wood in the mountains a few days ago. I didn't know if it was good, so I dug it up. Doctor, is this angelica worth the medicine?"
The old doctor quickly said, "Yes! Absolutely! The value of this angelica far exceeds the other herbs in my prescription!"
As he spoke, he looked at Meng Qiqi again, his eyes full of curiosity and admiration: "Little girl, you are so young, and you can actually find such good medicinal herbs. It's really rare!"
Meng Qiqi smiled and said, "It's just good luck."
The old doctor took the angelica and carefully examined Lin Mo's grandmother again, then said: "With this angelica, the other medicines can be adjusted appropriately. Just use some ordinary herbs. This will save a lot of money."
He wrote a new prescription and handed it to Lin Mo: "Go to the pharmacy and get the medicine according to this prescription. With this angelica, it should be enough."
Lin Mo took the prescription and looked at the price on it. It was indeed much cheaper. He looked at Meng Qiqi gratefully, then took the prescription and the angelica and went to the pharmacy to get the medicine.
The old doctor reminded Meng Qiqi of some precautions in caring for patients before leaving.
Only Meng Qiqi and Lin Mo's grandmother were left in the room.
Lin Mo's grandmother held Meng Qiqi's hand, tears streaming down her face: "Qiqi, you are really our family's savior..."
Meng Qiqi quickly said, "Grandma, don't say that. We are neighbors and we should help each other."
[Ding! The host has once again helped the hero solve his problem. Melon eating progress +5%, comfort level +30, current comfort level 200! Congratulations to the host for reaching comfort level 200, unlocking the "Basic Quality of Life" mode, increasing the daily rice/flour generation in the space to 2 kilograms, and unlocking the basic cooking skill.]
Oh wow! My comfort level has reached 200! I also unlocked the basic cooking skill!
Meng Qiqi was overjoyed.
Basic cooking skills mean that she will be able to make more delicious food in the future!
Not long after, Lin Mo came back with the medicine.
He looked at Meng Qiqi with eyes full of gratitude and admiration: "Qiqi, thank you, if it weren't for you, my grandma..."
Meng Qiqi waved her hand and said, "Brother Lin Mo, there's no need to be so polite. Let's boil some medicine for grandma."
"Yes!" Lin Mo nodded vigorously and hurried to boil the medicine.
Looking at Lin Mo's busy figure, Meng Qiqi felt warm in her heart.
[Ding! The male and female protagonists (including the host) jointly take care of the elders, interaction +5, eating melon progress +3%, current progress 33%.]
Very good, the progress of eating melons is steadily improving.
Meng Qiqi sat aside, watching Lin Mo carefully feed medicine to his grandmother. Su Qingyue also rushed over after hearing the news to help take care of her. The interaction between the three of them was warm and harmonious.
Meng Qiqi felt like an outsider, watching a heartwarming family ethics drama, but she felt happy in her heart.
This melon is so sweet.
In the next few days, Meng Qiqi would come to Lin Mo's house every day to bring some delicious food to her grandmother, and "secretly" add a few drops of spiritual spring water.
Under the careful care of Meng Qiqi and Lin Mo, Lin Mo's grandmother recovered quickly and was able to get out of bed and walk around soon.
Lin Mo's gratitude to Meng Qiqi is beyond words.
The way Su Qingyue looked at Meng Qiqi also changed from the initial friendliness to the current closeness and dependence.
Meng Qiqi looked at everything in front of her and felt very satisfied.
She achieved her goal. She not only helped the male protagonist, improved his progress and comfort in eating melons, but also established a good image in the village. It can be said that she killed two birds with one stone.
Now, it's time for her to think about her next money-making plan.
Angelica has been used and cannot be used again, otherwise it will be too conspicuous.
She had to think about what other medicinal herbs she could sell.
Meng Qiqi remembered that there were some ginseng seeds in the space, so why not... plant some ginseng?
Ginseng is a very tonic food. If you can sell it, you will make a fortune.
However, ginseng is rarer and more eye-catching than angelica, so we need to come up with a more reliable solution.
Meng Qiqi touched her chin and fell into deep thought.
It seems that I need to find a suitable time to go to town and see if I can find a reliable buyer.
[Ding! The host is actively thinking about making money. Comfort level +5, current comfort level 205.]
Well, the comfort level is still slowly improving, not bad.
Meng Qiqi stretched and looked at the bright sunshine outside the window, feeling in a good mood.
