Chapter 33: A Warm Home (3)
The east wing room was very quiet, and there were no patients, so Fu Baoliang was sorting out the medicinal materials alone.
Seeing Li Ziyu come in, Fu Baoliang asked, "How is it, did you have a fever last night?" ”
"Well, I had a fever last night, and it seems that I don't have a fever in the morning, so it must be my uncle's medicine. I think Uncle will go and see it again today, and I can rest assured if it's okay. Li Ziyu replied.
Fu Baoliang packed up the medicine box and said, "Let's go, I'll take a look." With that, he took the lead and walked out of the house, followed closely by Li Ziyu. The two walked quickly, but fortunately they didn't meet anyone in the middle, or they had to explain. After a while, he arrived at the door of Li Ziyu's house.
Li Ziyu stretched out her hand and patted the door: "Xiaoshan, open the door!" ”
Xiaoshan agreed and ran to open the door, and when he saw that it was Fu Baoliang, he hurriedly called: "Uncle Fu!" Fu Baoliang agreed and entered the door.
When a few people arrived at the West House, they lay Junzhang head inside on the kang, and when they saw a middle-aged man they didn't know who was still carrying a medicine box, they knew that it was yesterday's doctor. Hurriedly stood up and said hello: "Hello, I'm sorry for you again." ”
Fu Baoliang took off his cotton shoes and got on the kang, sat next to Jiang Junzhang, gently pressed him and said, "Don't move, I'll show you." As he spoke, he first observed his complexion, then reached out to hold his arm and quietly checked his pulse.
The three little ones all looked at Dr. Fu with a worried expression, looking very nervous, and Li Ziyu coaxed the three little ones to go to the East House when they saw it.
Yesterday the matter was urgent, and I didn't have time to avoid a few small ones, both blood and doctors, which must have frightened them. Fortunately, as long as they are at home, they have the backbone in their hearts, so they didn't cry yesterday.
When I met the doctor today, I may have remembered yesterday's events, and they were a little afraid. Li Ziyu coaxed the three small ones to the kang, and the kang quilt was still spread and not cleaned up, so they went to play on the kang, and hurried to the Westinghouse.
In the west room, Fu Baoliang felt very strange while checking his pulse. Will your own medicine work so well? Sixty percent of the injuries that were so severe yesterday recovered after only one night. Strange, maybe it's because this young man himself has a good physique. Forget it, it's a good thing to get better quickly, don't worry about anything else.
Jiang Junzhang looked at the doctor a little nervously, and yesterday Ren Xiaohang told himself that he had given himself the master's special Jiuhua Yulu liquid, so he could get up in the morning and go to the toilet. The liquid medicine he took could hide it from Li Ziyu's family, but it couldn't hide it from the doctor. Looking at the doctor's expression in front of him, he was clearly suspicious. But this doctor is very smart, he didn't ask anything, and he didn't look like a talkative person.
Fu Baoliang finished his pulse and said to Jiang Junzhang: "Well, the young man is recovering well, and he will be able to fully recover in a few days." After taking the rest of the medicine, there is no need to prescribe any more medicine. With that, he got off the kang and walked out of the house with the medicine box on his back.
Jiang Junzhang looked at the doctor's back and said, "Thank you, doctor!" ”
Li Ziyu took Xiaoshan and Xiaowen to send Fu Baoliang to the gate, and said embarrassedly: "Uncle, you see that you are about to eat and still bother you, I should have let you have a meal at my house, but"
"I know, don't be so polite with your uncle. Did I take the chicken you gave yesterday without saying a word? Alright, let's go back. ”
"Uncle, how is the patient recovering?" Li Ziyu hurriedly asked. She has to have a little score in her heart, or her heart is always falling and she can't be sure.
Fu Baoliang turned around and reassured: "Don't worry, there are still six or seven days to get better, I think the medicine I prescribed is all fried, just give it to him on time." Maybe this young man is in good health and is recovering too fast, I can't believe it. Fu Baoliang shook his head and walked down the hill.
Li Ziyu looked at Fu Baoliang's figure walking down the hillside, thinking back to what he said, which confirmed the conjecture in her heart more and more.
Among the people who came last night, they must have given this Zhang Junjiang a good medicine, otherwise, he would not have been able to get better so quickly.
With the bottom in her heart, Li Ziyu relaxed all over. Seeing that it was still early, and it would take a while to make lunch, I thought about making cotton clothes for the two small ones first.
She went to the Westinghouse first to see the patient, and when she saw that he was sleeping with his eyes closed, she withdrew. Knowing that he was seriously injured, sleep was the best way to recover.
Xiaoshan and Xiaowen enter the East House when she goes to the West House. Maybe they are not familiar with it, Xiaoshan and Xiaowen are very polite to this person named Zhang Junjiang, unlike the three little ones who don't have any precautions in their hearts.
In the east room, the old kang was spread on the kang by them, and there were five vegetable boxes side by side on the floor of the house, Xiaoshan and Xiaowen were looking at the newly grown vegetables, and Xiaowu, Xiaohu and Xiaolan were whispering on the kang, not knowing what to say.
Seeing Li Ziyu come in, Xiaoshan said to his sister: "Sister, look, not only the radish has grown leaves, but also the leeks and spinach have sprouted." ”
Xiaowen also looked at the other wooden box and exclaimed in surprise: "Sister, come and see that the cabbage has grown leaves, why does it grow so fast?" I didn't even find out. ”
Li Ziyu was busy looking at every box, but no, it was really sprouting. The leeks have just emerged with small spikes, turnips, cabbage and spinach have all grown leaves, only the shallots have not moved, and it is estimated that they will be able to sprout in the next two days. This time, she planted five kinds of rapeseeds, because she was not sure that she could grow them, so she only made five wooden boxes. If she can really grow vegetables, she will make a few more wooden boxes in the next step, and if she can't eat them, she can go to the restaurant to have a look, and she will definitely be able to sell them at a good price.
Xiao Wu, Xiao Hu and Xiao Lan also heard it and clamored to get off the kang to see.
Li Ziyu hurriedly put on their shoes one by one, and Xiao Wu was the first to rush off the kang and ran to the wooden box. Xiaohu and Xiaolan were not to be outdone, and stumbled behind.
Li Ziyu didn't care about them, and when she saw that there was a vacant place on the kang, she untied the oilcloth bag containing the fabric, found a pink muslin cloth with small flowers from it, found scissors from the needlework basket, and groped for Xiaolan to cut the cotton jacket fabric.
She is one inch more than the size Xiao Lan is wearing now, and she has an inch folded inside. Xiaolan is still young now, but the children grow up fast, such a good fabric will not wear out easily, and you can wear it after leaving it out.
Seeing her cut new flower cloth on the kang, the children all hula came up and asked one after another.
"Sister, do you want to make new clothes?" Xiao Wu asked happily.
"Well, make new clothes." Li Ziyu gestured with the cloth in her hand and answered it in her mouth.
Lan Lan climbed onto the edge of the kang, stared at her crystal-like eyes, and asked cutely, "Sister, who is this for?" Lanlan's? ”
Li Ziyu nodded, and touched Xiaolan's little face lovingly: "Yes, this is made for Lan Lan, isn't it beautiful?" ”
Xiaohu grabbed the edge of the kang with both hands, and tried to get on the kang with all his strength, and shouted anxiously while exerting his strength: "Sister, I want to see the flower cloth, beautiful." Second brother, hug, go to the kang. ”
Xiaoshan smiled and hugged Xiaohu to the kang, Xiaowen saw that Xiaolan was in a hurry to get on the kang and wanted to cry, so he also hurriedly hugged Xiaolan.
At this time, Xiaowen found the bag of fabrics and hurriedly asked, "Sister, why did you buy so much fabric?" Wow, this flower cloth is so beautiful! Sister, is there mine this time? The reason why Xiaowen asked this was that he had never worn new clothes, and he always picked up Xiaoshan's old clothes to wear. Seeing that his sister had bought so much fabric, he also hoped to wear new clothes in his heart.
Li Ziyu touched Xiaowen's head distressedly, and said easily and affirmatively: "Of course there is yours, not only yours, everyone in our family is wearing new cotton clothes, and they are all new cotton, are you happy?" ”
"Happy!" Including Xiaoshan, they all look at me, and I look at you and cry out with joy. I haven't worn any new clothes, but I haven't worn them for the New Year.
Xiao Wu looked at the old clothes on his brother and sister, and then looked at the new clothes that his sister made for him not long ago, although he was very happy to have new clothes to wear, he still said sensibly: "Sister, forget about mine, don't do it, my clothes are still new." ”
Li Ziyu looked at her sensible younger brother and looked at the shabby cotton clothes on the other younger siblings, and felt very sad. I can't help but cheer myself up in my heart: Li Ziyu, Li Ziyu, you have to come on! You can't hold back, you can't be afraid! For the sake of your younger siblings, you have to hold on! No matter what his grandson family is, you have to cheer up, kill gods when you meet gods, and kill ghosts when you meet ghosts!
So, Li Ziyu promised with a smile: "Xiao Wu, there are yours this time." You can rest assured that in the future, my sister will guarantee that you will have warm cotton clothes to wear, and there will also be warm cotton shoes to wear. I won't let you go hungry or freeze again! ”
Next, Li Ziyu cut out the fabric of Xiaolan and Xiaohu's cotton clothes. Xiaolan's is a pink cloth with small flowers, and Xiaohu's is a pink-purple cloth. Li Ziyu sewed the needle and thread, and sewed Xiaolan's cotton clothes first. After waiting for the cotton to be finished, I drew a few stitches on the front and back pieces of the clothes, and when I saw that it was almost time to make lunch, I put it aside.
Li Ziyu came to the hall and saw that the three pheasants he had killed in the morning were almost soaked, so he took them out and tied them with hemp rope and hung them under the eaves outside, and kept them for later to eat.
Xiaoshan came out and stabbed the West House stove, Li Ziyu put the whole chicken he killed yesterday into the pot and boiled it, passed the water to remove the fishy smell, and then added water again to put the chicken in the pot. In this way, after the fire is boiled, change to low heat and simmer for half an hour.
At this time, Li Ziyu suddenly remembered the wild vegetables she picked yesterday, and hurriedly went to the corner of the hall to find them. After I came back yesterday, I forgot about the wild vegetables in a hurry. Later, I was in a hurry to go to town, and when I came back, I was in a hurry to cook and forgot about it.
Li Ziyu picked and washed the wild vegetables, and kept them for a while to put them in the chicken soup.
For their sisters' lunch, Li Ziyu planned to cook cakes mixed with sorghum noodles and white noodles, and fried chicken offal with radish strips. Chicken offal is the chicken gizzard, chicken liver, and chicken heart in the three pheasants, there are a lot of things, and a big bowl can be fried.
When Li Ziyu was making cotton clothes in the house, the general of the West House was actually sober.
He looked at the roof in a daze, looking at the roof that seemed very simple to him, and felt very puzzled in his heart. Strangely, he felt very relieved and warm now. He glanced around the house, the floor was mud and pitted, the walls were mottled and peeled, and the roof looked like it was newly built, and it was also a mud and straw house. But such a dilapidated mud and straw house gave him a kind of peace of mind and warmth that he had never had.
