Chapter 67 Fruit Makes Things Worse
Wen Qilin was still marveling at how quickly his injury had recovered when he heard his sister-in-law's comment about the broken arm, and then listened to his two brothers-in-law trying to scare him.
Not only that, he could also feel the care and attention of his family in his peripheral vision.
Most importantly, he knows his own body best; the pain at the injury site is indeed getting less and less, and he thinks it's all because he has a good constitution.
Although his face showed confusion, he did not forget to reassure everyone, "Don't worry, everyone. It can heal if it's broken, and it can be straightened if it's crooked. Don't worry, Father and Mother."
Wenwen watched Wen Qilin's changing expressions, her anxiety growing stronger.
She exchanged glances with the other members of the "Hoopazi" group. They now had a good understanding of each other, and some issues didn't need to be discussed; a single look was enough for them to reach a consensus.
The group exchanged glances and winks, glaring at each other, and in the end, Wen Chengbin became the first spokesperson.
"Dear elders, we...we still have one more test to tell you about."
"Oh, what kind of test?"
"It's like this, we ate a huge melon on the mountain, this melon was so big..."
Wen Chengbin launched into a tirade, like beans spilling from a bamboo tube. Even his straightforward sentences, combined with his dramatic intonation, left everyone stunned.
"That's exactly right, no exaggeration, no embellishment. You should believe me if I testify."
"Yes, what my second brother said is true."
The family listened in silence.
No wonder I didn't feel as tired the next day after a good night's rest. It turns out the fruit played a part too. There were so many pleasant surprises, I can't even process them all.
Wen Qikang stretched out his arm, rolled up his sleeve, and revealed the wound. "Look, this is the wound."
Wen Chengfeng also simultaneously revealed the wound on his arm.
The wounds of both of them had scabbed over, and there was slight redness and swelling around the wounds, making it look like they had recovered for three days.
Wen Qilin approached, somewhat disbelieving: "Third brother, this was done today, and it's already healed? You were afraid of the pain, so you didn't cut it deep enough, were you?" He then pressed down on it with his hand.
Wen Qikang was caught off guard. "Oh my, brother, you really went for it! It's a lie that it doesn't hurt at all. It's too scary. If you press so hard, it will still hurt."
"Hehehe..."
Wen Qikang's words made everyone laugh.
Wenwen rested her chin on her hands, grinned, and laughed along.
After a moment of deep thought, Wen Qilin said earnestly, "Wen'er, you can't easily take your things out in the future."
"That makes sense. Don't always think about everyone else; you also need to think about your own safety."
"Yes, we've changed so much, it's dangerous if someone finds out."
"Eldest brother, Second brother, you must protect your sister when you go out in the future. If even a single hair on her head falls, I will hold you accountable."
......
Each family member offered a word of care and advice.
Wenwen felt happy and joyful, but wasn't this a bit of an exaggeration?
She was just brainstorming, originally thinking that star lotus grass could be used to make tea to relieve fatigue, and that she could brew a pot of tea for everyone to drink on the road. The idea was wonderful, but reality was cruel. What if it exploded and attracted a large number of wild animals? The consequences would be unimaginable.
On second thought, if Star Lotus Grass can't be used, fruit can be substituted. She has plenty of fruit in her space and can supply it every day.
Now her elders are warning her not to take it out easily, saying, "How can you do that?"
She definitely couldn't agree; good things should be shared, not kept hidden away.
Wenwen nodded solemnly with a serious expression, "Grandfather, Father, elders, I promise I will be very, very careful."
She changed her tone, "However, I have another idea that I need the help of my grandmother, mother, aunts, and sisters."
When the group of women heard that they could help, they were eager to try and all perked up their ears.
Madam Mu (Wen's grandmother, Mu Huashan) patted Wenwen's head and said, "Wen'er, if you need anything from your grandmother, just ask."
"That's right. If Wen'er needs anything from us, just say so. Third Aunt has plenty of resources to help."
"And I."
"I."
The other women nodded in agreement, showing a willingness to brave any danger.
Even the little ones stopped fussing, nestled in their parents' arms, and nodded in a daze, saying, "Me too, I can do it too."
The support and enthusiasm of her family gave Wenwen a great deal of confidence.
She had already decided that since she knew the wonders of fruit, she would make full use of them and find new ways to utilize them.
"Now that Uncle and my brothers have tried the wonderful uses of fruit, why don't we process it and make it into dried fruit, candied fruit, jam, or fructose that are convenient to eat on the go? Grandmother, what do you think of this idea? Do you think it's okay?"
After Wenwen finished speaking, everyone was still a little incredulous and hesitant to agree.
As a parent, Wen Yuanqian was the first to object, saying, "Wen'er, this is too risky, inappropriate, and not a long-term solution."
Wen Qilin also disagreed, saying, "Wen'er, this will attract too much attention. Our family's situation is different right now, so let's just forget about it."
Wenwen got anxious. "How can we let it go? We've picked fruit on the mountain these past few days, and other families have the same fruit too. Besides, once it's cooked and mashed into a paste, who can guess what kind of fruit it is, right, Grandmother?"
In fact, Mu and her group of women thought the same thing: if you mash it into mud, who can still see its original appearance, unless they have a pair of discerning eyes?
But it's still not appropriate to say it so directly.
After thinking for a moment, Madam Mu compromised and suggested, "How about this, let's try using the fruit we picked these past few days. Once we have some experience, we can do something else. Wen'er, don't worry, Grandmother Rong will think of a way."
Wenwen thought about it and agreed. She decided to test the waters with the fruit they had picked in the past few days. With so many talented people in their family, they were sure to come up with something ingenious, which was quite exciting.
"Yes, yes, I'll listen to Grandma."
While speaking sweetly, Wenwen took out some fruit under the cover of darkness.
"These are the ones we picked these past few days, let's make these first. This is what we'll eat now, let's eat our fill before we try it."
"That's great, the fruit after the meal is the most satisfying."
"That's great! We'll get to work right after we finish eating."
The children were all very happy to see the pile of fruit.
The women were even more so, whispering and discussing how to make dried fruit or jam while they ate.
The men were much more restrained. A few hesitated to test it, but they had the desire but not the courage. Besides, Wen Yuanqian flatly refused, saying, "You guys shouldn't even think about testing it. The effect varies from person to person. Besides, we can't find a testing opportunity on the road to exile. You'd better be careful."
Those few put aside their ulterior motives and ate their fruit in silence.
Only one person did not reach out.
Wenwen understood and handed him an ordinary peach. "Father, I didn't know I would do more harm than good. Please eat this first. After we see the doctor in town, we'll think of something else. Hmm, we'll study it again then and add some ingredients to your prescription. It will definitely cure you. Don't worry."
Wen Qilin chuckled and said, "Silly girl, Father doesn't worry about that. Whether it's good or bad, it's all Father's fate. Even if it's broken or crooked, it doesn't matter. Don't worry about Father, just be well."
After Wen Qilin finished speaking, he turned to his head and said, "Big Brother, how do you attract animals? Tell me."
