Fat Aunt excitedly accepted the two hangs of money, "Wife of Zheng Hong, you really are a good person!"
Today, a person could get twenty wen money, and this was just the beginning, they were not familiar with the herbs, so they could definitely earn more in the future.
With this money, they could all have a good New Year's celebration today!
Fat Aunt made some small talk before hastily taking her leave, as she needed to hurry back and distribute the money.
Tan Zhenghong moved the herbs into the kitchen; their task was to clean the herbs and then use a bamboo knife to slice them into thin pieces, and some of the herbs, like Bai Ji, needed to be steamed through before slicing.
The work was not heavy, but it was very tedious.
They squatted on the ground, first soaking the herbs in water mixed with plant ash, then cleaning them thoroughly in a basin of fresh water.
"It's a good thing Fat Aunt sorted the herbs beforehand, otherwise it would be even more troublesome for us."
