Chapter 316: Barbecue
"No, no, I'm willing to let you be cured, and I believe in you!" Boss Xu was afraid that they would really leave, so he hurriedly stopped him.
"You speak, if you really don't want the daughter-in-law of the loyal army to treat you, then let's take the grain to the commune!" Boss Xu said angrily to his daughter-in-law.
"What are you doing pulling grain?" Boss Xu's daughter-in-law didn't turn her mind for a while, and asked suspiciously.
"What do you say to pull grain for, of course it is used as medicine, do you think the family has the money to pay for the hospital's medicine?" Boss Xu said angrily.
"I can't go to the hospital, I can't pull food, what will our son eat in the future!" Her son is her dead end.
"If you don't go to the hospital, in our neighborhood, in addition to the daughter-in-law of the loyal army, there is also the second uncle of the loyal army's mother's family, who else do you say can cure you! If it is not cured, you will be left to wait at home for death! Boss Xu was very irritable at this time, and said unabashedly.
Boss Xu's daughter-in-law thought about it again and again, and after weighing the pros and cons, she no longer held on to her face, and said cheekily: "Xiao Nian, don't be like me, I was talking nonsense just now, just help me take a look." When healed, I'll definitely thank you. ”
"No need to thank you, just don't think about lying to me. Fortunately, I prepared a pill to cure snake venom when I went up the mountain today, otherwise this halfway up the mountain, when I pick the herbs, your whole leg may be swollen" Xie Xiaonian said while taking out the pill from his pocket.
"We are really lucky to meet you today, thank you so much, daughter-in-law of the loyal army!" Boss Xu said gratefully.
After Xie Xiaonian gave Boss Xu's daughter-in-law the antidote pill, and helped squeeze out the remaining poisonous blood, and after applying the medicine, he handed a small paper bag to Boss Xu.
"There are 4 pills in this, your daughter-in-law takes one a day, and after three days of eating in a row, the remaining poison will be cleared, and the remaining one is for you to eat tomorrow!"
"Thank you so much, daughter-in-law of the loyal army, how much is your medical fee, I will send it to your family when I go down the mountain." Boss Xu took the paper bag and said gratefully again.
"No need, you should know that I never charge money for medical treatment for people in the village."
"Okay, then I'll send you a basket of herbs according to the old rules. It's just that the herbs I know are the most common, I don't know if you can use them! Boss Xu said worriedly.
"It's okay, just the usual ones!"
Although Xie Xiaonian hardly uses the herbs sent by the villagers, in order not to make the villagers feel that she should give them free treatment, Xie Xiaonian will still accept the herbs picked by the villagers on the mountain, whether they are cheap or not.
However, the villagers in the village are relatively simple, although there are no valuable medicinal materials to give, but every time they will wash the soil on the herbs, and only when they are clean will they be delivered.
Xu Lao's daughter-in-law saw that Xie Xiaonian did not refuse to treat her because of the conflict between the two families, and did not overcharge her family's money and things.
After Boss Xu and his family walked away, Pancake said dissatisfiedly: "Mom, why did you treat her?" Last time, his son snatched his brother's spinning top, and she quarreled with you and grandma, and scolded her brother, but it's broken. ”
"Pancake, how did your mother usually teach you, how could you say such a thing! Even if our family has some conflicts with them, then we can't see death without help. You have to remember that there is no distinction between good and bad patients. And being willing to help others is also the most basic point of being a human being, as a person, when can you not give up kindness, you know? Xie Xiaonian listened to the words of the pancake and said solemnly.
"Your mother is right, and as a man, you must be broad-minded, and you can't be so stingy and calculating." Xu Zhongjun also taught a lesson.
"Well, I know, I was just angry just now, so I said that, I didn't really want my mother to save people, otherwise I would have just spoken out to stop it." Pancake saw that his parents were angry, and quickly explained.
"Mom, Pancake didn't think about not saving her, he just hugged us and was a little unhappy. Pancake also said just now that Chubby's mother was bitten by a poisonous snake, which is very pitiful. ”
Seeing that the pancakes were criticized, Heping hurriedly came out to help.
"This is the best, but whether it is intentional or not, such words cannot be said in the future, how bad it is for people to hear it!" Xie Xiaonian listened to the words of peace and said with a little relief.
"yes, I see, Mom." Pancake replied obediently.
And on the road just now, Zhongjun did hear Pancake say that Boss Xu and his daughter-in-law were very pitiful, and I believed that he just said it casually, his nature was not bad, and he didn't really think so, so he didn't continue to teach him a lesson.
After all, they had come out to play, and what had just happened was just a small episode, so when they returned to the camp, they began to work happily again.
With Xie Xiaonian's space cheat, they successfully caught two pheasants and two hares from the trap.
"It's amazing, I didn't expect us to catch so much prey, so we don't have to go hungry." Wei Min looked at so many prey and said happily.
"Don't worry, even if I can't catch these pheasants and hares, I won't let you go hungry." Xie Xiaonian said funny.
"Okay, the wild vegetables and fruits are almost picked, let Xiaobai watch things here, let's go to the river to wash vegetables and kill pheasants and hares." Near noon, Xie Xiaonian said.
"Okay, let's go now, there are fish in the creek, maybe we can catch a few more!" Peach Blossom said excitedly.
"yes, let's catch a few more fish, and then get a grilled fish to eat." The other children were also very happy to hear that they could add another grilled fish.
After arriving at the creek, Xie Xiaonian said directly to Xu Zhongjun: "Zhongjun, you go to kill pheasants and hares, and by the way, wash all these mushrooms and wild vegetables, and I will go to the creek to fish with Wei Guo and Wei Min." ”
Xie Xiaonian hadn't touched a fish for a long time, and this time he could play for a while.
"Okay, you go fishing, pay attention to safety, just leave it to me here, just watch a few children." Xu Zhongjun replied directly.
However, although there were fish in the stream, the largest one they touched was only the size of a palm, Xie Xiaonian and Weiguo Weimin caught them for more than half an hour, and only caught five or six, which was not enough for everyone to stuff their teeth.
In order not to disappoint the children, Xie Xiaonian walked a little farther, and while everyone was not paying attention, he put a few fish of about two catties out of the space in a deeper place.
"Look, I've got a big fish!" Xie Xiaonian raised the fish in his hand and pretended to be surprised.
"Oh, mom is so good, what a big fish!" Pancakes shouted happily on the shore.
"Auntie, touch a few more, I want to eat a lot of fish!" Seeing this, the Wei family also shouted excitedly.
If it weren't for the loyal army watching, maybe he would have taken off his shoes and gone into the water at this time.
"Auntie, we'll go to your side too." Wei Guo and Wei Min saw that Xie Xiaonian touched the big fish, and hurriedly ran to Xie Xiaonian's side.
After less than 20 minutes, Wei Guo and Wei Min also touched a fish released by Xiao Nian, which was enough for everyone to eat.
After returning to the camp, Xie Xiaonian and Xu Zhongjun were busy with their own work, Xu Zhongjun was going to make roast chicken and rabbit, and Xie Xiaonian was calling flower chicken.
After Xie Xiaonian wrapped the chicken in mud and buried it in the ground, Wei Guo began to build stones and make a fire for the people, ready to make a barbecue.
They didn't have bamboo sticks to wear mushrooms and other things, nor did they have the barbed wire used in barbecues in later generations, so Xu Zhongjun found a large piece of thinner and smoother stone by the stream, washed it and put it on the fire, and then roasted mushrooms, leeks, eggplants, and other things directly on the stone.
"It's so fragrant, I want to eat it now." As soon as the taste came out, the Wei family said greedily.
"Wait a little while and you'll be able to eat leeks and mushrooms first!" Xu Zhongjun said while skillfully brushing the sauce.
In this way, Xu Zhongjun was in charge of roasting, Xie Xiaonian was in charge of serving and sharing food for everyone, and several people divided several plates of dishes and a few rice balls after a while.
"Okay, just pad your stomach first, the meat hasn't been roasted yet, don't eat the vegetables for a while, you can't eat the meat!"
"But when will the meat be good, why do I get hungrier and hungrier the more I eat!" Peach Blossom touched her stomach and said.
"Good things have to wait a little longer to eat better!" Xie Xiaonian said with a smile.
Xu Zhongjun watched a few children staring at him all the time, and when the outermost layer of the hare and pheasant was almost roasted, he took a few blades and relieved the children's hunger first.
"I don't eat it, just give it to my child!" Xie Xiaonian looked at Xu Zhongjun feeding the meat on his lips and said embarrassedly.
"In my heart, you are also a child, eat!" Xu Zhongjun said dotingly.
"Hey, uncle, I didn't expect you to say such a thing, it's too disobedient, and it doesn't match your image!" Wei Guo teased his uncle while pretending to be disgusted and shaking the goosebumps on his body.
Xie Xiaonian, who was already embarrassed, was even more embarrassed at this time, and hurriedly took the meat from Xu Zhongjun's hand and stuffed it into his mouth with a blushing face.
"Eat your meat!" Xu Zhongjun glanced at Wei Guo lightly and said in a deep voice.
I thought to myself, next time I will bake directly in my daughter-in-law's space, and I must not have any more light bulbs!
And with such a glance, the frightened Wei Guo quickly closed his mouth.
"How? I'll bake it deliciously! Xu Zhongjun asked as he changed the subject.
"It's delicious, it's delicious!" The children all said cheeringly.
"Dad, your roasted rabbit meat is so delicious, much better than your cooking!" While praising Dad, the pancakes did not forget to make up for it.
Peace nodded in agreement after hearing this.
