Chapter 290: Breakfast
"What? It's not dawn yet, so you'll let me sleep a little longer......"
Tong Xiaolai fell down again as he spoke, and threw her down by the way, lying on the bed, unwilling to get up.
Xia Yuxuan didn't give up, and continued to call him after getting up.
After being tossed by Xia Yuxuan for more than ten minutes, Tong Xiaolai didn't want to wake up and woke up.
After Tong Xiaolai got up, he sat stunned for a while, and gradually figured out that they still had to cook porridge for the villagers.
This is what the female doctor does at five o'clock in the morning every day.
After five o'clock in the morning, the sky soon dawned, and the villagers were about to get up, and making porridge for the hungry villagers and patients was what the female doctor had to do every day.
Tong Xiaolai and Xia Yuxuan also said before that they wanted to help, but Tong Xiaolai forgot everything as soon as he slept, but Xia Yuxuan still remembered it and got up on time.
Although Tong Xiaolai didn't want to get up yet, he was woken up by Xia Yuxuan, and remembered that since he had promised others, he had to obediently get up to help.
The two went downstairs and came to the backyard of the medical hall, only to see that the female doctor had already set up the cauldron and started to boil porridge.
However, one pot is not enough, in the face of so many villagers and patients, it takes three cauldrons to cope with it.
If they don't, the villagers and the sick will have nothing to eat.
Before Tong Xiaolai arrived, some villagers in the village who had no food to eat relied on this to survive, so this habit was retained, and the female doctor boiled porridge and gave it to everyone to those villagers who had no food to eat.
Although Tong Xiaolai had already distributed food to everyone yesterday, the habit had not stopped for a while, and she still wanted to do her best to help the villagers as much as possible.
Three cauldrons, three stoves, and one of the three people is responsible for one.
Wash the big iron pot first, then put rice, pour water, set the pot up, and Tong Xiaolai also gave them firewood.
Although Tong Xiaolai has never done this, under the guidance of the female doctor, he still did it decently.
Soon, the sun was rising and the sky was getting brighter.
Tong Xiaolai "clicked" one after another, tired and sweaty, but no matter how you say it, it can be regarded as for the village, Tong Xiaolai feels that no matter how tired it is, it is worth it.
Tong Xiaolai found that the female doctor always spared no effort for this village, and did her best to hope that the village would get better soon, so Tong Xiaolai was also unconsciously infected by her, empathized with her, and gradually integrated into this village.
If it weren't for the plague, Tong Xiaolai believed that this village would be very beautiful and beautiful, and the people living in this village would be very happy.
Therefore, everyone is looking forward to this beautiful day and working hard for this day to come.
After waking up early and working hard for more than an hour, the porridge gradually boiled and steamed a lot of steamed buns.
At seven o'clock in the morning, it was dawn and the villagers got up.
After packing the porridge, everyone worked together to carry the porridge to the entrance of the medical hall, and the almsgiving began.
When the time came, the villagers came here one after another.
Many villagers are crazy when they see steamed buns, for them who were short of food before, it is good to be able to drink some light gruel, and they never thought that there would be white-flour steamed buns.
Tong Xiaolai can also see that many villagers are so hungry that they are skinny, and it is really heart-wrenching to watch.
Illness and hunger, in exchange for Tong Xiaolai's efforts to serve them rice, breakfast, and a big bowl full of them, I just hope they will eat more, but don't be so thin.
As long as they still want what they want, and they haven't eaten enough, Tong Xiaolai will give them a serving, give them steamed buns, and have enough food.
The three of them helped together and distributed the prepared breakfast to everyone.
All of a sudden, Tong Xiaolai and Xia Yuxuan's goodwill in the hearts of the villagers soared instantly, won their welcome and recognition, mingled with them, and became their own people.
"Thank you, thank you! Thank you, young man......."
"Thank you, thank you! Thank you so much......
"Thank you, thank you for ......"
Many people shook hands with Tong Xiaolai and thanked them sincerely.
"Hehe, hehe, it's nothing ......" Tong Xiaolai touched his head and said modestly.
I have to say that this feeling is so good, it turns out that helping others will really make you happy, which Tong Xiaolai can really feel.
The three of them looked at each other and couldn't help but laugh happily, and the three of them had a fulfilling morning.
After the almsgiving, the three of them returned to the hospital and had breakfast together.
At the dinner table, Tong Xiaolai told them about last night's incident.
"What did you say!" After listening to Tong Xiaolai's female doctor's "bang", she immediately put down the dishes and chopsticks in her hand and stood up.
"What do you say? Sickness has appeared!! Just last night!! The female doctor said emotionally.
"Don't get excited, calm down!" Tong Xiaolai persuaded her to sit down first.
"Is this true? When?! Did you catch it?! The female doctor was still so excited that she couldn't stop it.
"It's true, I saw it with my own eyes last night! It was about twelve o'clock in the morning last night, but alas, let it run! Tong Xiaolai replied regretfully.
Xia Yuxuan comforted the female doctor and sat her down.
"What the hell is going on? What really happened last night? The female doctor asked, feeling a little more relaxed.
Tong Xiaolai successively talked to them about last night's incident and said: "Things have to start with me peeing last night, I peed a lot at the time, and then ......"
Then Tong Xiaolai's words were interrupted by Xia Yuxuan, Xia Yuxuan looked at him with strange eyes: "Tong Xiaolai, you actually defecate anywhere!" ”
"Well, that's not the point." Tong Xiaolai immediately changed the topic and said, "The point is that I met the disease later!" ”
Tong Xiaolai told them what happened next.
Tong Xiaolai: "Do you understand, you guys?" ”
Female Doctor: "Poison!" In this way, the water in the well is really polluted! ”
Tong Xiaolai: "Hmm! I believe that the earliest source came from there, so that so many people can be infected at once! ”
"I see!" The female doctor finally figured out what was going on with the plague in the village.
"If the water in the well is already capable of infecting everyone, why does it still release poison gas?" Xia Yuxuan didn't understand.
"Poison gas can make people who are not infected quickly infected, and it can also make people who are already infected worse. I think it's trying to destroy the village completely! Tong Xiaolai took a sip of porridge and said, holding a freshly bitten white steamed bun in his hand.
"Eh, wait!" Tong Xiaolai suddenly had a question in his mind that puzzled him.
"Are you sure there is only one well in the village?!" Tong Xiaolai asked meaningfully, and his tone became a little serious.
The female doctor was sure: "Yes, Childe, there has only been this well in our village for a long time!" Why did Childe ask that? ”
"Is there a place to get water other than that well?" Tong Xiaolai asked again.
The female doctor said: "Although there is river water near the village, because there is a well, almost everyone's daily water is taken from the well. ”
Tong Xiaolai was surprised: "That's not right! If that's the case, why are some people sick and others not, when everyone drinks water from the same well?
Although most of them are sick, there are still some volunteers and family members of patients who are not sick. Tong Xiaolai was a little puzzled and fell into a state of thinking.
"Uh...... This ...... "Not to mention, it is true, there are indeed some people who are not sick, and the female doctor does not know why."
"However, the disease has run away, so what will happen after that?" The female doctor worried.
Tong Xiaolai also felt that it was true that if this scourge was not eliminated for a day, everyone would not be at peace for a day.
"I think that as long as there is a village, it will definitely come again, and when the time comes, we will catch it again and chop it up to avenge the dead villagers!" Tong Xiaolai said indignantly.
"Hmm!" The female doctor also plucked up her confidence, feeling that the village was gradually seeing hope.
"Thank you! Thank you! The female doctor stood up, bowed to them sincerely, and said thank you.
"Eh, don't be like that, you're welcome! We're just doing what we're supposed to do. Tong Xiaolai replied. Xia Yuxuan next to her hurriedly helped her up.
"Anyway, I still want to thank you!" The female doctor said.
"Alas, for the sake of the village, it will not be easy for you. You have given your all for the village, and such a person is really rare. Tong Xiaolai really admires her from the bottom of my heart.
"Childe, you may not know. This village is my home to me, and these villagers are my family. I can live without anything, but I can't live without home and family. If this village is gone, then I really have nothing! After the words reached her heart, the female doctor couldn't help crying.
These are the tears behind her strength, and it can be seen from her tears that she has always been thinking about this village in her heart.
After crying, the day's task will not end because of this, and there are still many things waiting for them in the village.
Due to the large number of patients, the daily cost of medicine is huge, and gradually, the medicine is almost gone, and they need to go up the mountain to collect medicine.
The female doctor told them that they were all medicines against the plague and therefore important, so their main task today was to go up the mountain to collect medicines.
Since this is the case, this medicine is so important, it cannot be shirked, Tong Xiaolai and Xia Yuxuan immediately went to prepare to go up the mountain.
In order to successfully collect the medicine, the three of them need to bring some equipment.
Three people, each carrying a basket, Tong Xiaolai brought weapons and ammunition, and some food and water just in case, and after almost being prepared, he set off.
The old grandmother stood at the door of the hospital with a stick to bid them off: "You must pay attention to safety, remember to go early and return early!" ”
"Don't worry, grandma, we'll be back soon!" Tong Xiaolai waved goodbye.
"Goodbye, grandma!" Xia Yuxuan and the female doctor waved their hands, and the three of them set off together.
The three of them carried the basket on their backs, walked out of the village along the village road, and walked out of the village.
