After being replaced, she changed from a miserable daughter-in-law to a lucky wife

Chapter 485 Herbal Tea Recipe

Xia Wanniang looked at the prosthesis in his hand and said, "This prosthesis has a limited lifespan and cannot be used a second time."

Xiao Chiye looked at the prosthesis in his hand and asked, "How long can it be used?"

Xia Wanniang looked at the introduction of the exchange space: "The usage period is twenty years. After the energy is exhausted, it can no longer be used normally, and it cannot be removed."

Xiao Chiye frowned slightly: "Twenty years, the usage time is still too short."

Xia Wanniang had a rough idea of ​​the average life expectancy of people in that era, which was basically around sixty years old, with most being around fifty years old.

It's not that the food here is polluted, but that everyone here has a hard life. They have suffered hardships since childhood and their bodies have been severely damaged. Those who live in luxury may only live to around 65 to 70 years old.

Soldiers join the army at the age of fifteen or sixteen, leave with injuries, and their life expectancy is much shorter than that of other people.

Unless you have used the marrow cleansing pill to improve some of your physical ailments, it would be difficult for you to live a long life.

She told Xiao Chiye what she had learned: "In fact, according to their current life expectancy, the wounded soldiers around 30 years old should be able to be used until they leave."

Although it sounds a bit cruel to say this, even if she had the exchange space, she would not be able to exchange for so many marrow cleansing pills.

She had not counted how many wounded soldiers there were in Daxia, but this time there were hundreds of them, not counting the deaths.

These are just the casualties in the Northwest. If other troops are included, the number will be extremely terrifying.

No matter how much wine she had, she couldn't exchange it for so many marrow cleansing pills. The only way she could think of was to make their lives as good as possible while they were alive.

Xiao Chiye said calmly: "If they hadn't died, the days ahead would have been difficult."

Xia Wanniang smiled and said, "I don't think so. If they can make enough money to get married and have children during this period, at least their children will support them. If they don't get married and have children, don't they still have us?"

She never thought of using them and then discarding them: "We can take care of them until the end of their lives, build a nursing home, and find someone to take care of them. What do you think?"

Xiao Chiye naturally wouldn't object: "Okay. I'll go back and ask them what they think. The people in the barracks are all young, so whether they are willing to accept it depends on them."

Xia Wanniang nodded: "By the way, you can also ask them if they are willing to bring their families to settle in the northwest. If they are willing to be treated the same as other civilians, they can find a job in the escort agency. Anyway, they will not be short of money."

Xiao Chiye nodded: "Okay, I'll go back and ask now, and I'll come back to see you in the evening."

After watching him leave, Xia Wanniang lay down on the recliner and looked at the city wall being built in the distance. Now they were relying on people to lift the bricks up little by little.

Not only is this time-consuming and labor-intensive, but it is also much less efficient. She is considering replacing the crane.

But who will drive it after it is replaced?

It may take some time for them to learn, so this will waste a lot of time.

She wanted to think about whether there was a more labor-saving and convenient way.

Xiao Zilin ran over with sweat all over his forehead: "Mom."

Xia Wanniang saw that he was sweating and his face was red from the sun. "Why are you alone? Where are your brother, sister, Yunshan and the others?"

Xiao Zilin: "They are helping the gentleman to register the people who come to work and divide the work. We may have to work overtime at night."

Xia Wanniang wiped the sweat off his face with a handkerchief and fanned him with a palm leaf fan to make him feel cooler: "Are you thirsty?"

Xiao Zilin nodded: "I'm thirsty."

Xia Wanniang changed the drink for him to drink bayberry juice and looked up at the sun above her head. The autumn heat is no joke, so it's time to prepare some things to cool down.

Otherwise, it would be troublesome to get heatstroke in such a strong sun. It’s time to prepare the herbal tea.

The place where she is is a place for Qingfeng and Banyan to rest, but not many people come here.

He took out pen, ink, paper and inkstone from the space, wrote the recipe for herbal tea on it, and prepared to send someone to North City to get the medicine and have someone boil the herbal tea.

Xiao Zilin tilted his head and looked at the prescription she wrote on the paper: "Mom, is this the prescription?"

Xia Wanniang: "This is a recipe for herbal tea. The weather is too hot. I'm afraid everyone will get heat stroke, so I'd better prepare some herbal tea for them."
