Chapter 216: Completely Clean
Qinghe Town has slowly returned to calm.
Niu Xiaosi's death also began to be forgotten in the busy autumn harvest and autumn planting.
Aside from his parents and family, not many people talked about it anymore, after all, in this still barbaric era, dead people were commonplace.
In the past few months that Chen Xu has been the pawn of Qinghe Town, someone has died almost every once in a while, and there are many ways to die, such as dying of illness, old age, falling to death while collecting medicine on the mountain, being bitten to death by wild beasts, and so on.
Although the health center has also rescued the lives of several people, in this era of extremely primitive transportation and communication, it is simply impossible to quench the thirst of the near-located, and by the time the news is rushed, many of them have already been put into coffins or even dug a pit and buried hastily.
The only thing that made Chen Xu slightly satisfied was the obstetrics and gynecology delivery, once it was found that the pregnant women who were about to give birth were all sent to the health center in advance, so although this period of time was busy, but under Xu Fu's careful care and treatment, three children were born successively, all of whom were safe mother and child, which was great luck and excellent news.
Passing away and being reborn represent the continuous reproduction of human beings, and as long as there is a new life, there is hope.
Listening to the cry of the newborn baby in the delivery room, after a while, a little nurse took out a wrinkled baby in fine linen swaddling cloth and said with a happy face: "Congratulations to Tianding!" β
"Puff~" A middle-aged couple in their thirties and a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy who were standing anxiously at the door of the ward knelt in front of Chen Xu at the same time and kowtowed, "Thank you, Lord Lidian!" β
"Thank you for what I did, you want to thank Doctor Xu, thank you for the care of obstetrics, what do you have to do with me, get up quickly!" Chen Xu stretched out his hand and pulled all three members of the family up.
"Lord Lidian is very gracious, we will never forget!" The three of them kowtowed a few more times before they got up with excitement on their faces, and then went to see the newborn baby together, of course, after seeing it, they were carried in by the little nurse to take a bath and clean up.
This obstetrics and gynecology department is not professional, but Chen Xu adopted the model of obstetrics and gynecology in later generations, went to the countryside to register in advance, predicted the early admission of the delivery date, and then delivered in the hospital, although there was no way to have a caesarean section, but Xu Fu did have two brushes, among the three babies born, one of them was obviously in an abnormal fetal position, but after a few days of slow correction like doing yoga and gymnastics, the baby was still born, although it was very difficult, and the mother almost fainted several times, but the final result was very exciting, and the mother and child were safe.
Xu Fu's mentorship is very mysterious, according to the Guigu Neijing he got to guess, Chen Xu thinks that the old man of Qingqi who passed on his medical book is Guiguzi, because there are also records in history, Xu Fu is a close disciple of Guiguzi, but whether Guiguzi is a person is very controversial, and even if it exists, the life of this character is very incredible, and he is a soldier, a lawyer, a Taoist, a yin and yang family, a vertical and horizontal family, a strategist, a famous family, and a fortune teller, Su Qin, Zhang Yi, Sun Bin, Pang Juan, Bai Qi, Li Mu, Wang Qian, and Wei Yi, LΓΌ Buwei, Li Si and other famous figures in the Warring States Period are his disciples, and there are a total of five hundred, and these people span the entire Warring States Period, spanning nearly two hundred years, that is to say, Guiguzi actually lived for more than two hundred years, and he did not die, he lived until the Han Dynasty, and then disappeared, and later he was called Wang Chan Lao Zu by Taoism in later generations, ranked as a true immortal in Dongfu, respected his Taoist name as Xuanwei Zhenren, with the ability to penetrate the heavens and the earth, is a real immortal, Guiguzi was also completely mythologized, As a result, it is no longer clear whether the truth is true or false.
A few months after coming to this era, Chen Xu didn't know much about the outside world because he lived in Qinghe Town, and he didn't know much about the immortal characters that are circulating today, but according to the historical records of more than 2,000 years in later generations, there are no immortals in this world, at most there are Taoist priests who cultivate true qi, but I haven't heard of any person who has become a real immortal, and the end of feathering and ascension is probably death, as for whether people will travel to other parallel time and space after death to continue to plague the villagers, this cannot be explored, although he himself has crossed, But I don't dare to guarantee that others have also crossed over, otherwise everyone in Qinghe Town is a soul who has traveled from different time and space? Or is it true that every new newborn is a reincarnated ghost? Could it be that the whole world is an illusory four-dimensional space-time, and all that you see is fake?
Chen Xu couldn't help but shudder, pressed this completely unacceptable idea in his mind, and then suppressed it with the Liangyi gossip array.
After a while, Xu Fu came out of the delivery room, looking quite tired, but with a satisfied smile on his face, Chen Xu patted his shoulder and thanked him for a few words as usual, and then ordered a little nurse standing behind him to start sending candy to celebrate the newborn.
In later generations, you have to eat candy when you get married, you have to eat sugar when you have a child, you have to eat sugar for your birthday, and the sweet sugar represents happiness and a sweet life.
The boiled syrup is poured on the fried flour, waiting for it to be half-solidified, and then rubbed into a sugar pill the size of a glass marble by hand, burnt yellow, although it is not good-looking, but it tastes very sweet, and there is no packaging outside.
Because this is the first time to distribute candy, no one has ever seen it, let alone eaten it, so they can't help but praise it again and again when they taste it.
"This candy is so sweet!" Almost everyone holds the sugar in their mouths, pushes their tongues to the left and the right for a while, their teeth popping, and the sound of swallowing saliva comes and goes.
Chen Xu has a sense of accomplishment.
I remembered that when I was a child, a group of children also ate candy like this, but now they have been replaced by a group of adults, which looks more festive.
"Chen Lidian, thanks to your careful treatment and Doctor Xu's care, the injuries of the two of us are no longer serious, and I want to return to Xianyang immediately!" After eating the candy, Wang Wu and Wang Qi came to meet Chen Xu together.
"Okay, after I go back, I will say hello to General Wang and the Marquis of Tongwu, just as the cold winter is coming, I designed a kind of kang for heating and sleeping in winter, you bring the drawings back, and let the old general also make one at home!" Chen Xu nodded.
Wang Wu and Wang Qi followed Wang Jian drunk last time to brush the tiger, but both of them were seriously injured, if it weren't for Chen Xu and Xu Fu's timely rescue, it is estimated that they would have been buried on the mountain at this time, and the grass on the grave was half a foot high.
After more than a month of treatment and recuperation, the two of them ate and slept every day, Chen Xu was not stingy, all kinds of delicious and delicious supplies were supplied, some of them became white and fat, and their weight increased by more than ten catties, looking at the two burly fat men in front of him, Chen Xu was a little worried that after these two goods went back, he would not be able to stand Wang Qian's training and run back to Qinghe Town to eat and drink, after all, in the entire Daqin, no chef has his own skills, the eight major cuisines...... No, only a few home-cooked dishes, but the cooks of this era generally only have two methods, one is boiled, boiled or boiled with a little salt, the other is roasted, purely roasted, no ingredients, after the test, dip a little salt mixed with ginger, garlic, onion and mustard as a seasoning, although Chen Xu can barely accept it, but how can he use various seasonings to fry and fry the carefully made food with various seasonings in later generations?
Therefore, all kinds of delicious delicacies, once you leave Qinghe Town, no one can eat them.
Before Wang Wu and Wang Qi left, Chen Xu not only gave detailed drawings and design methods for the kang, but also gave each of them ten bottles of wine and ten bottles of vinegar plus a tube of candy.
Of course, when Meng Yun and Ma Teng were sent away the day before yesterday, Chen Xu also sent a few bottles of wine and vinegar to each person, after all, he blackmailed someone else for 500,000 yuan, although he hadn't gotten it yet, but he could still take a good look at it first, after all, Meng Yun's identity could not be underestimated anywhere, he could be suppressed in Qinghe Town, and when he arrived in Xianyang one day, maybe he would be beaten to death on the street in the middle of the night, so he still needed to have a good relationship in advance.
As for Ma Teng, it is a comfort, after all, he has been beaten and bruised and swollen twice in Chen Xu's hands, and this time he forcibly carried a black pot, so it is also worth Chen Xu's little comfort, lest this guy can't think about it for a while, and it's not good to hang up on the southeast branch if he can't think about it for a while, and Ma Boyuan, the county guard, is not something he can contend with.
"Now it's really completely clean!" After sending Wang Wu and Wang Qi away, Chen Xu breathed a long sigh of relief, and then turned around and threw himself into the busy collection of autumn grain taxes and the autumn planting of wheat.
"Eun Gong, I'm back!"
Chen Xu was on the edge of his experimental field when he saw a villager driving a cow to pull a cart to plant wheat, and Yu Wuya, who had sent Meng Yun and Ma Teng back to Wancheng, was riding a horse, and he was calling loudly from afar.
Chen Xu looked behind Yu Wuya a few times, but he didn't see the person he was thinking about, so he hurriedly greeted him and asked, "How is it?" Have you seen the water girl? Why didn't she come along. β
Yu Wuya jumped off the horse and shook his head and said, "I heard that the Shui family said that my junior sister went to Chudi, I stayed in Wancheng for three days and didn't wait, I was afraid that Engong would be anxious and had to return!" β
"What is she doing in Chudi?" Chen Xu asked suspiciously.
"I don't know, the junior sister didn't leave any message, and the Shui family doesn't know her whereabouts, but I heard that she went with the Shui family's caravan, and it's safe to come, so don't worry about it!"
"She is injured, I told her not to go far away, to meditate at home to recuperate, and it will be a cold ......winter soon" Chen Xu frowned, a little worried in his heart, such a beautiful wife running outside alone, he was really worried, what about high martial arts, Chu people did not obey the discipline of the Qin Dynasty, there were the most bandits and bandits, and if he was not careful, this wife would be gone.
"By the way, Engong, the Shui family has collected some ancient classics, I brought some back this time, do you want to go and see them?" Yu Wuya knew what Chen Xu was worried about, and he was equally worried, but he couldn't solve it.
"Let's go, let's see!" Chen Xu also knew that he couldn't do anything at the moment, so he could only wait quietly, so he could only put this matter behind him for the time being.
