Chapter 507: Accidental Injury
Shaking her head gently, Feng Xiaoyue walked to the wellhead next to her, the well here is more elegant, and the groundwater below should be living water, they set up a small waterwheel here at the wellhead, and there is a bamboo tube behind it.
A trickle of water flows out of the bamboo tube and then converges into a small canal on the side, which can not only irrigate the edge of the medicine field, but also adjust the climate of the place.
If you want to fetch water to the farthest medicine field, you only need to turn the waterwheel slightly. There is no need to bother to lift the bucket out of the well, and naturally water will flow out of the bamboo tube and actively pour it into the bucket.
The only drawback is that this bamboo tube is not long enough, otherwise it directly spans the width of several acres of fields, and even the effort to mention the past can be saved.
Feng Xiaoyue stood on the edge of the well, turning the waterwheel while looking at the range of the medicine fields, and by the way, she calculated how long it would take her to complete the irrigation of all of them.
A bucket of water can only be poured into a square area of one step in length, and you can only carry two buckets when you go over by yourself and bring a flat pole. And this large area of medicine field, for the scope of this step, is like a vast ocean, which can be completed in any year and month.
Feng Xiaoyue couldn't help but twitch the corners of her eyes, no wonder she understood why Luo Yi came up with such a solution, on the one hand, she was lazy for herself, and on the other hand, this kind of work was the most abrasive, and it was really good to use it to toss people.
Although the waterwheel on the mouth has been a lot more convenient recently, it is still far from enough in terms of efficiency. Feng Xiaoyue thought about it, and picked out the most slender ones from the pile of bamboo poles that she dug up in the open space next to her and didn't know what to do, and then picked up a hemp rope on the spot.
Although the area of this medicinal field is not small, but each medicinal herb is divided into shallow ravines around it, if you don't take a closer look, it is really difficult to see, presumably Han Dan and they used the same method when they watered before.
The selected bamboo poles are connected to the windmill at the mouth of the well, and then the hemp rope is attached to the shaft of the windmill, as long as you move your hands, the trickles that flow out can flow down the cracks at the joints of these bamboo poles and bamboo poles, and merge into the ravines near the medicinal herb plants.
Whether to water or not is only a matter of time for the time being, such an easy way, even if Feng Xiaoyue stands here for half an hour longer, there is nothing, since it can save a lot of trouble, why not be afraid of a trip.
Then it was the same as Feng Xiaoyue guessed, and sure enough, it was less than half an hour, and this piece of medicine field that looked very vast had already been filled with well water, and only a small part of it was really out of reach, so Feng Xiaoyue needed to replenish it.
After the watering task was completed, Feng Xiaoyue only had to go to the medicine field to bring back the stools used to support the bamboo poles. The bamboo pole is too long, and it is impossible for Feng Xiaoyue to catch it alone, so there are several stools that she specially moved over in the medicine field, but she doesn't know very well which medicinal materials are located in the cracks.
At the same time, Han Dan, who went out to check on the wild medicinal herbs, happened to come back early today, but before he entered the courtyard, he saw Luo Yi alone from a distance, very leisurely basking in the sun in the front yard.
"Yiyi, why are you still there? The medicine field has to be watered every three days, have you finished the part of your hand? ”
Luo Yi was startled, because she was lying on her back on the recliner, stimulated by the sun, she didn't open her eyes, and suddenly heard Han Dan's voice, and the pile of pumpkin seeds in her hand that scared her were almost all sprinkled on the ground.
She jumped up from the recliner suddenly, and then obediently approached Han Dan's side, "Senior brother, why did you come back so early today, do you want to eat some melon seeds, I only fried them yesterday, and they taste delicious." ”
With such a nervous appearance, it was obvious that she felt a little bit of a thief, Han Dan glanced at her suspiciously, and came in the door to put aside the back basket on her back, "Don't eat." ”
"Senior brother, you don't have to worry, it's just watering, I've already done it, and I've also taken care of your part by the way, you shouldn't have anything to do today, why don't you play with me for a while."
Luo Yi's hair was bouncing all the way around him, and he was a little more lively than usual. And Han Dan straightened up and shook his head as if he didn't notice it at all.
"You're pretty well-behaved today, and you're doing things so quickly, but there's nothing to do, but the girl's body is in order to avoid sequelae, we have to take care of her, you go play by yourself, I have to read more medical books."
"You know every day that you care about her, she is obviously all right, whether she is your junior sister or I am your own junior sister, you don't have to give her conditioning, what supplements and good medicines, ask him to exercise in milliliters, pick up a few buckets of water, it will work better than anything."
Luo Yi pursed her lips angrily, and accidentally missed the words, she felt that even if she said this, it shouldn't matter, but she didn't want to see Han Dan suddenly show an unbelievable expression on his face.
"What do you say? The matter of the medicine field in the backyard, did you leave it to her to be taken care of by someone who doesn't know anything? There's a poisonous violet that I planted last month! ”
In the backyard, Feng Xiaoyue didn't know that Han Dan had returned, and the benches in the medicine field had almost been moved, so she carried a bucket of water and irrigated the medicinal herbs that were separately separated from the corners.
Feng Xiaoyue brought the bucket from near and far, the first few plants were all white flowers, and the leaves were very similar, there seemed to be no difference at a glance, but the fragrance of these herbs was obviously different.
Feng Xiaoyue was worried that there was something special about these separately separated herbs, and this fragrance was only afraid that it would be bad for her body, so she deliberately covered her face with a handkerchief. The handkerchief can isolate the aroma of the research part, but it also has a little impact on the sight.
Then Feng Xiaoyue walked to the vicinity of the last plant, this herb was very different from other herbs that came out of other households, it did not bloom, but it grew several green nodules-like fruits on the stem. And its leaves are also dark purple from top to bottom, from the mesophyll to the veins, and there are a little jagged barbs at the edge of the leaf.
"Wisteria? But why didn't you see its stolon? Feng Xiaoyue muttered in a low voice, except that this plant did not bloom, it was exactly the same as him in other places, and even the size and color of the seeds were no different.
"It stands to reason that after it grows so big, there should be stolons growing on the stem and leaf buds, why not, could it be cut off?"
Feng Xiaoyue was puzzled, she stretched out her hand and wanted to pluck the plant to take a closer look, she knew that the barbs on the edge of the leaves were very dangerous, so she had been very careful to avoid those big leaves.
But just as Feng Xiaoyue's hand was about to touch the stem of this plant, Han Dan, who hurried from the front yard, shouted, "Yue'er, don't touch it!" ”
Originally, according to Feng Xiaoyue's cautious actions, there would be no mistakes, but because of Han Dan's reminder, Feng Xiaoyue's hand shook, and the tip of her index finger was so unfortunate to stab.
The barbs didn't look very bad, but as soon as they touched the skin, it seemed as if they would get into it, and in an instant there was a tingling pain on the fingers, and a drop of black blood oozed out of the wound.
Feng Xiaoyue stared blankly at the drop of black blood that inexplicably appeared on her fingers, and before she could react, she fell straight down, fortunately, the fence next to her was naturally made of those sturdy vines, which could catch her body steadily.
"Yue'er!" Seeing this, Han Dan was shocked, and regardless of whether he would hurt the medicinal materials in the field during the action, he directly ran to Feng Xiaoyue's side in a few steps and hugged the person.
Luo Yi also took the pill and ran over at this time, just in time to see Han Dan holding the person in his arms and gently feeding a pill, such nervousness, gentleness and care, which she had never seen since she was sensible.
Somehow, Luo Yi felt that her heart was half cold, but she finally came back to her senses, and she continued to hold the bottle of pills and planned to come over to help, but Han Dan had already picked up the person horizontally and walked out of the medicine field.
Although the medicinal properties of violet grass are violent, and it is not so easy to prepare an antidote, fortunately, the speed of his attack is fast, and the speed of dissolution is also fast, Han Dan just put Feng Xiaoyue on the stool next to the well, poured another cup of tea, and she also regained consciousness.
"Yue'er, you can be regarded as awake, do you feel that there is something uncomfortable on your body?" Feng Xiaoyue slowly opened her eyes, and what caught her eye was Han Dan's anxious face, she almost didn't react in a bluff, and shrank back.
"No, this antidote is very useful, except that the body is still a little weak, it has no effect." Feng Xiaoyue shook her head and said softly, Han Dan was still not at ease, and she was relieved only after she finished taking the pulse for her.
"Fortunately, it should be good during this time, the poison of the violet grass has been completely resolved, and the whole body is weak, just a little sequelae of the antidote, you just need to rest a little."
After saying that, Han Dan straightened up and turned his head to look at Luo Yi with a cold face, "Yiyi, you are inevitably too much today." ”
"On weekdays, you are very critical and harsh to Yue'er, I just think that you are verbally provocative and don't have any special purpose to teach you, I just hope that you can figure it out yourself, but you really shouldn't be today."
