Chapter 70: Picking Beans for Nothing Again
"I know, the bag next to me contains cakes and duck eggs, which I brought for you, and you also brought the kettle.
lest thou starve again as you did yesterday. ”
"Hey, I've got it all with me." Chen Dashan then set off and came to Dr. He's house.
Dr. He has also packed up and is ready to go.
When Dr. He saw that he was still carrying a basket, he asked, "What are you carrying a basket for?" ”
"My mother asked me to send a thank you gift to Su Orion, this is a duck egg."
"Oh, let's go and bring him duck eggs first."
"No, we just had to pass by his door." Chen Dashan said.
The two of them went east together and walked to Su Orion's house.
The door to his house was closed, and I don't know if he hadn't gotten out of bed or had gone out hunting.
Chen Dashan put the duck eggs at his door, and went to earn some thatch to cover the duck eggs.
Anyway, he rarely has people here.
He has a cold temperament, doesn't like to talk, is alone, and has a very fierce face.
Not only did the people of Hehuan Yang have nothing to do with him, but even the people of Wangjia Village had nothing to do with him.
When the people of the village were intimidating the children, they all said that the hunters were coming.
The child was so scared that he didn't dare to cry.
So Chen Dashan is not worried that the duck eggs will be stolen.
After putting away the duck eggs, he led his horse and walked with Dr. He to the valley where he had gone yesterday.
The valley was a long way from them, and there were hardly people walking there.
There is no road yet, but there are traces on the ground that Chen Dashan walked yesterday.
If Xiaobai hadn't brought him here yesterday, he wouldn't have said anything that he would go to this kind of place.
Who knows if there are poisonous snakes in the grass?
Who knows if there are any beasts in this valley?
Dr. He also felt that he would not go to such a place himself.
No wonder so many beans grow in this valley.
Up and down the mountain, they walked for about an hour to get to the place.
After entering the valley, Dr. He was relieved, this time it was not a strange Dunjia.
He was also quickly attracted by the beauty in front of him.
The scent of flowers gives the illusion that it's spring.
The climate in the valley is different from that of the acacia poplar.
The temperature here is significantly warmer than that of Acacia poplar.
However, this is not a strange thing.
The temperature in the mountains is like this, spring may bloom on this side of the mountain, and it may still snow on the other side of the mountain.
The climate is complex and varied depending on the terrain.
What made him strange was that there were a lot of wild chrysanthemums growing here.
These chrysanthemums can be used in medicine to clear the liver and brighten the purpose.
It is a very good medicinal herb.
"Doctor He, look at what herbs you can pick, I'll go cut the beans." Chen Dashan said.
"Okay." Dr. He began to look for herbs.
There are many herbs here, and there are many other herbs besides chrysanthemums.
And the quality of these medicines is quite good.
He suddenly had the idea to turn this place into his personal medicine garden.
However, the thought flashed through his mind and was not spoken.
Chen Dashan still went to cut beans here.
Although I cut a lot yesterday, I left more here.
Like yesterday, he picks and chooses those that have grown beans.
Not only can you harvest the stalks, but you can also harvest the beans.
He works fast.
Dr. He collects medicine and needs to move the place from time to time.
Every time I get up and move places, I can see Chen Dashan working non-stop.
He thought to himself, no wonder he was able to open up more than a hundred acres of land by himself.
Sure enough, it's quite capable.
I just don't know if he exerts too much force, will it cause harm to his body?
Many people put a lot of effort into it when they were young, and when they are old, all kinds of problems come out.
But looking at his current mental state, it doesn't look like he's hurt.
Even if he is a doctor, he can't tell what will happen in the future.
Still, he felt the need to be reminded.
At noon, Chen Dashan still had no intention of stopping to rest.
He was going to cut all the beans back.
However, in Dr. He's view, this is obviously not a day's work.
He beckoned Chen Dashan to come over and rest.
Chen Dashan also came over.
He sat down, his eyes still on the beans not far away.
Dr. He said, "It's noon, it's time to eat."
I brought rice balls and sauerkraut heads and ate some together. ”
The sauerkraut head was given to him by Mrs. Chen.
He fried some meat and put it in, it was delicious.
Chen Dashan said: "I also brought it." ”
As he spoke, he opened the baggage, which was filled with the cakes that Mrs. Chen had baked for him, as well as boiled duck eggs.
He took out the duck eggs and gave them to Dr. Ho to eat.
The two exchanged food, and the food was extraordinarily delicious.
Mrs. Chen's baked cakes were soft but very strong, which made Dr. He very enjoyable to eat.
I thought to myself, this cake has been sitting for a long time and it is still so delicious, if you eat it as soon as it comes out of the pot, it is estimated that it will be even more delicious.
After eating, Chen Dashan was busy going to work again.
Dr. He said, "You don't have to be in such a hurry, you can't work immediately after eating, otherwise your stomach will not be able to stand it." ”
Chen Dashan thought in his heart that he would go to work after eating, and he didn't have an appetite, so what's wrong?
However, he thinks that Dr. He is a doctor, and he is right to listen to him.
The two sat for a while, and Dr. He said to him earnestly: "Dashan, you can't be in a hurry to work."
Although I was energetic when I was young, I couldn't help but take good care of my body.
If you are overworked, you will have all kinds of problems when you get old. ”
Chen Dashan said: "Hey, what are you doing now when you're old?
If we don't do it, it's still a question of whether we'll be able to live to old age. ”
Dr. He was stunned and speechless.
In an age of lack of food, it is indeed not easy to live peacefully to old age.
"Even if it doesn't matter if you live to old age or not, you have to pay attention to efficiency in your work."
"What is efficiency?"
"I'll give you an analogy, if you work without a break, you can finish the work of this field in four hours.
However, you rested for half an hour, and then spent three and a half hours to finish the job, and you are not so tired, which one would you choose? ”
Chen Dashan said: "Of course, it's the latter one. ”
"That's efficiency."
"I understand, you tell me to lie down and rest for a while, and work hard in the afternoon." Chen Dashan said.
"That's what it means."
Chen Dashan obediently lay down and took a nap.
I started working in the afternoon, and I was full of strength.
Dr. He's back basket is not big, and there are rich medicinal materials here, so he filled the back basket early.
After it was full, he stopped picking it and came over to help him cut beans with Chen Dashan.
Chen Dashan had already cut a lot, he summoned Xiaobai, tied the cut ones to Xiaobai's back, patted his horse's neck, and said:
"Xiaobai, you send these home first, and then come over again, and we will go home together."
