Chapter 10, Broken Family

Tsk! Tsk! Tsk!

Fang Rui didn't stop and cut the back of his hand five or six times before a shallow wound appeared. He sprinkled 'styptic powder' to stop the bleeding immediately, and a scab formed within a short time.

The effect is quite outstanding!

The efficacy of the medicine is good, coupled with his guarantee of strength, the finished medicine business is booming.

"I want a pack of 'styptic powder'."

"I want a pack of 'health medicine'."

"I'll give you two packs of 'hemostatic powder' and 'health medicine' each!"

…

Not only 'hemostatic powder', but also 'health-preserving medicines' are also sold in large quantities. However, compared to 'hemostatic powder', 'health-preserving medicines' are sold slower.

The tall, skinny man who sells secret books was here today and even came over to say hello to him. After a little trial and error, he gave up the idea of ​​selling secret books to him.

——For more than half a month, Fang Rui came to the black market dressed in different shapes and sizes. He met this person three or five times, but this person obviously did not recognize him at this time.

This tall and lanky guy was an acquaintance. He talked to Fang Rui shamelessly, and he obviously wanted to make friends.

After chatting with him for a few words, Fang Rui learned that this person was called Gao Yao, nicknamed 'Bao Dawei', and he could be regarded as an acquaintance.

"Hey, do you want to know who the one with the triangular eyes was just now?"

Gao Yao didn't wait for Fang Rui's answer and said to himself: "That person's name is Zhou Chu. He has a second uncle who is a top-grade warrior. He is an elite member of the East City Wild Wolf Gang..."

This is because Fang Rui is young, he is a top-grade warrior, and he went out of his way to sell a favor.

'Zhou Chu, this name... sounds like a disaster when you hear it!'

Fang Rui secretly wrote down the name: 'Hmm, interesting, is it also in the East City? If I remember correctly, this Wild Wolf Gang is an old enemy of the Tiger Gang.'

He doesn't want to liquidate this person immediately. The hatred is not that great, and this week is not something that can be thrown away casually.

However, it is definitely necessary to keep a small notebook.

Fang Rui is an immortal person, his lifespan is endless, so he has the patience to play with this person slowly.

"Thanks." He said.

"No thanks, let's go and continue looking for the fat sheep."

Gao Yao waved his hand and left.

It's true that he wants to make friends with Fang Rui, but he also understands that going too far is not enough - this kind of person who is struggling in society knows how to measure and maintain a very comfortable distance.

…

In about a quarter of an hour, the finished medicine packs prepared by Fang Rui were sold out.

Due to the success of the business and the verification of this way of making money, he was in a good mood. In addition to thirty kilograms of sorghum noodles, he also bought some stick noodles and a kilogram of eggs today.

Perhaps it was because he was exposed as a top-grade warrior that no one noticed him after he went out to the black market.

As for the clamoring Zhou Chu, there was no trace.

'It feels like there's no trouble...so good!'

Fang Rui sighed in his mind and returned on a familiar road.

Halfway through, light rain started to fall in the sky.

"It's raining, which can alleviate the drought a little bit. However, it doesn't look like it's going to be heavy, and...it won't be a big relief!"

"The chaos in Changshan County will probably continue."

Returning home on a stormy night.

When Fang Rui returned home, Fang Xue was still waiting in the main room.

"How's it going?" As soon as Fang Rui entered the door, Fang Xue first looked around him. After confirming that he was not injured, he hurriedly asked about the finished medicine.

"Very good, all the medicine packs we prepared are sold out." Fang Rui said with a smile.

"My son is really capable!"

Fang Xue was so happy that she touched her palm.

People of her generation are most afraid of sitting on their hands and not having a stable source of income. They are panicking just seeing their savings at home dwindling.

In the past few nights, she often couldn't sleep because of money matters, and now... she finally solved it.

"Mom, in addition to sorghum noodles, I also bought some stick noodles and eggs to supplement nutrition for you and your sister. The three of us will have one boiled egg each tomorrow morning."

Mrs. Fang Xue didn't know whether she heard it or not, and happily gathered things there.

Perhaps it is because of the memory of hunger and the fear of hunger. People of this era have a special emotion towards food. Even if they are just looking at these supplies, they feel at ease and at ease.

In this difficult world, one of the few things that makes Fang Xue happy is gathering supplies and seeing the abundance of food in the granary, which makes her happy.

Because: This means that a woman who is not clever can make a living without rice and prevent her children and husband from going hungry.

——It can also be regarded as: enjoying happiness in suffering.

Mrs. Fang Xue put away the things and counted the food in the house on her fingers. After calculating, she said happily: "Brother Rui, the food in the house is less than a thousand kilograms. Our family has never had so much food."

where!"

She babbled: "These days are getting better and better...it's just...it's just...it would be nice if your father was here..."

"Yes!" Fang Rui heard this and paused. He also thought of the man who stepped forward to join the army in his place, and felt grateful in his heart.

"well!"

"well!"

Two long sighs.

"Mom, don't worry, daddy has his own destiny... It's getting late, you should go to bed early!" Fang Rui saw that Fang Xue's mood was depressed, and he didn't know how to comfort him, so he could only say this.

Everyone goes back to their houses.

On the bed in the back room, Fang Ling was already sound asleep. Today, this girl did not become erratic in her sleep, which is worthy of praise.

Bah!

Fang Rui kissed her on the cheek and fell asleep beside her.

Unknown insects chirped outside the window, and the cool breeze blew away the hot air of summer evenings. Time seemed to be blown and flowed slowly like water.

…

The next morning.

The Fang family's breakfast is: stick noodle porridge, fried wild vegetables, and a boiled egg.

“Wow, stick noodle porridge!”

When Fang Ling saw that it was not sorghum noodle porridge, she immediately cheered. When she saw the boiled egg, her mouth watered eagerly, but she wisely did not open her mouth.

She knew: it belonged to her brother.

In the past, when Fang Baicao was the head of the family, when the family encountered delicious food, the order was: Fang Baicao, Fang Rui, Fang Xueshi, Fang Ling.

This is not entirely patriarchal.

——Fang Baicao is the head of the family and has to do the most and heaviest work; Fang Rui is the only man in the family, a sick man, born with a weak body and needs food supplements; Fang Xue is an adult and also has to work; Fang Ling,

Girl, can’t we just be the last in line?

She's used to it.

Sure enough, Mrs. Fang Xue said: "This is for your brother. He has to work. Only when he is full can he have the strength to support our family... In fact, our family's life is already very good. At least it can guarantee a good life."

Three meals a day, I see most of my neighbors skipping lunch in order to save food."

"Mom, I know, I don't want to eat." Fang Ling buried her head, snoring and drinking the porridge, her throat was twitching, and she swallowed the saliva and porridge together, trying not to look at the boiled egg.

"mother!"

Fang Rui shook his head helplessly.

Last night, he clearly said that each person would have a boiled egg and the whole family would get some nutrition, but now, he is still the only one who has it.

Fang Rui also understands Fang Xue's thoughts: eggs are such a precious thing, and he wants him to eat as many as possible to raise him, the Fang family's 'White Jade Pillar'.

From this perspective, Fang Xue's approach is actually correct.

At least, he couldn't complain about this kind of good intention to make opinions... However, he could take the initiative to share this special treatment.

"Ling'er, I don't like egg yolks, come on." Fang Rui peeled the eggs and gave the yolk to Fang Ling.

"Brother Rui,"

Mrs. Fang Xue had a straight face, she should have been angry, but when she saw the scene of these siblings, she couldn't get angry, so she could only shake her head and said helplessly: "Just pamper her!"

"Mom, there's also yours, let's take half of it each." Fang Rui said with a smile.

"I don't like egg whites, you can eat them yourself!"
