After eating, Chen Fan went back to his room to rest, and the Jiang sisters were responsible for cleaning the dishes.

When he woke up, Chen Fan washed his face with the hot water on the charcoal stove, and he was immediately refreshed.

He first went to the chicken coop and grabbed two big roosters given by the students, then went to the room where the sundries were stored, took out a small charcoal stove that had just been burned yesterday, picked out a load of charcoal, and prepared to go to work at the brigade headquarters.

Why isn't today Tuesday?

If it's Tuesday, you won't have to go to work in the afternoon!

Because radio stations across the country are closed on Tuesday afternoons to overhaul their equipment, broadcasters across the country are exempt from work that afternoon.

Chen Fan walked to the door of Jiang Lili's room with full of resentment, knocked on the door and said, "Little Jiang, I burned the charcoal stove in the room, you can take your sister to my side, you can listen to the radio there." ”

Last time, Zhu Hao helped him get wires and sockets, and after he came back, he took the time to install them, and the radio could be used normally.

Jiang Lili stood up and was about to speak, but looked back at her sister again.

Jiang Tiantian immediately said, "Don't bother, we'll just be here." ”

Chen Fan pointed to his room and said with a smile, "It's snowing outside, the temperature is estimated to be less than 0 degrees, the stove over there is rising, it's a waste if you don't go, besides, the charcoal is burned by yourself, and it doesn't cost money, so you don't need to save so much." ”

After a pause, he said, "Today is the Chinese New Year's Eve, and no one will come." Even if someone came in and you were in my house on a fire, no one would say anything. ”

After finishing speaking, without waiting for them to speak, he waved his hand, "I'm going to work, I'll see you later." ”

Then he put on a hat, did not wear a coat and clogs, and strode into the wind and snow with a burden.

Watching Chen Fan disappear at the door, Jiang Lili looked back at her sister.

Jiang Tiantian pursed her lips, looked at her helplessly, and asked, "If I'm not here, will you pass?" ”

Jiang Lili tilted her head and thought about it, frowned and said, "If you don't come, he probably won't be able to light the stove, let alone greet me over." ”

Because there is no need, if my sister didn't come, she and Chen Fan should be busy with each other, and there is no need to light a stove.

Hearing her words, Jiang Tiantian breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "Since that's the case, then let's go and sit over there, don't waste his kindness." ”

Jiang Lili immediately smiled.

The two sisters are actually only 3 years apart, but their personalities are far from each other. My sister is steady, and my sister is lively. It's just that after a few changes, Jiang Tiantian rarely smiles now, and her mind is getting deeper and deeper, and she only smiles in front of her parents and sister.

And Jiang Lili's changes are even more earth-shaking, she doesn't even dare to laugh in front of outsiders, she doesn't dare to speak easily, and she keeps her head down all day long.

At this time, there were only two sisters in the courtyard, and there were no outsiders, so they also showed a bit of their true nature.

Sitting in Chen Fan's room, half-covering the door, feeling the warmth brought by the stove, but he didn't turn on the radio, just whispered together, bursts of chuckles came from time to time, and he didn't know what interesting things he was saying.

……

Chen Fan rushed all the way to the 5th team, and did not go directly to the team headquarters, but turned into an alley and went to Lu Siye's thatched house at the back of the village.

When he walked into the yard and saw that the door of the thatched house was closed, he shouted first, "Fourth master, are you at home?" ”

Lu Siye's voice immediately came from inside, "Here, come in by yourself." ”

Chen Fan is also half of his student, so naturally he doesn't need to be polite, otherwise, Fourth Master Lu should come over and open the door in person.

"Okay."

Chen Fan answered, first put the burden at the door, then pushed open the door, and walked in with a basket of charcoal, the chicken and the small charcoal stove.

At the same time, he said, "Fourth Master, I'll give you a New Year's greeting." ”

When Fourth Master Lu heard this, he couldn't help laughing, "It's Chinese New Year's Eve today, which year are you worshipping?" ”

"Goodbye to the early years."

Chen Fan put the things in the corner of the wall, closed the wind and snow out of the door, turned around and said with a smile,

"It's snowing heavily today, and I'm afraid you'll catch a cold, so I'll send you a basket of charcoal, and a small charcoal stove, which can be used to burn charcoal and warm water, so that you can use it when it's cold.

There is also that chicken, which was given to me by the students of the veterinary class, so I will borrow flowers to offer the Buddha, and I will get you a sauce stewed rooster later, and when I get off work, I will accompany you to drink a cup, which is also regarded as the New Year. ”

He pointed to something in the corner, "There is no more, I will come to pay my respects in advance, and you will also come to me for the New Year, and when I come back on the second day of junior high school, I won't mention anything, do you think it?" ”

The rule here in Yunhu is that on the first day of the new year, you don't pay New Year's greetings to outsiders, and only go to the home with the highest seniority in your family, for example, if you have a family, you will go to your grandparents' or parents' house, and if you don't have a family, you will go to your grandparents' house, and other families will not leave.

From the second day of junior high school, it is the day to visit relatives and friends to pay New Year's greetings, especially in the second year of junior high school, generally married daughters will take their husbands and children back to their parents' homes on this day to pay New Year's greetings to their parents, so there is a saying that the second son-in-law of junior high school will go to the old father-in-law.

Chen Fan is alone here, and it is inconvenient to come to the door on the first day of junior high school, so he has to pay New Year's greetings to the "mentor" on the second day of junior high school, that is, Xiao Liewen and Lu Siye.

Although they did not formally apprentice, the reality of the master and apprentice was true, and he should be respected and treated with courtesy.

Hearing Chen Fan's words, Lu Siye educated him, "That can't be counted, filial piety is filial piety, New Year's greetings are New Year's greetings, if you don't have good things, go to the field and pull a radish and bring it to me, it's also your mind, you can't be empty-handed!" ”

Chen Fan smacked his lips, "Well, you're really fastidious." ”

Then he patted his thigh and said with a smile, "Okay, I'll bring you a big radish the day after tomorrow, and the storage is the largest one in the vegetable field." ”

Whether it's carrying a radish or an early New Year's greeting just now, it's all a joke, no matter how poor he is, he doesn't miss this New Year's gift, just pull it from the gifts given by the students.

He's making fun of the old man.

Lu Siye is also a wonderful person, he saw through his careful thinking at a glance and joked with him.

While chatting, Chen Fan moved his hands and took the small charcoal stove to the window of the north wall, next to the earthen stove. I went outside to find a few bamboo pipes and came back, used a stick to open the bamboo inside, and then used mud and some grass and wood ash to connect the bamboo pipe to the smoke outlet and stretched out through the window paper.

When he was done, he opened the door of the small charcoal stove, took out a brazier with charcoal, lit the charcoal, and put it into the charcoal stove.

This design can facilitate the processing of soot, and then fill the kettle of Lu Siye's house with water and put it on the charcoal stove, which can boil water while heating.

After Chen Fan was done, Lu Siye asked, "Why do you want to pick up a small chimney?" ”

Chen Fan washed his hands, walked back and sat down with a smile, "Charcoal burning will produce carbon monoxide, if you don't deal with the smoke well, in a closed room, you will be poisoned by carbon monoxide for a long time, and in serious cases, it will be life-threatening." ”

Lu Siye was suddenly stunned, his eyebrows lowered, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

After a while, he opened his eyes, looked at Chen Fan and said, "You studied veterinary medicine, why don't you learn medicine?" I mean, healing and saving people. ”

In the eyes of the older generation of scholars, veterinarians are not on the table, but hanging pots to help the world is a noble profession comparable to reading.

Chen Fan raised his head and smiled, "It's not that I don't want to learn, I've also read the barefoot doctor's manual, and I can memorize many of the contents in it, you let me take a barefoot doctor's certificate now, and I am also confident."

However, although this medical book is very useful and can save emergencies, it has great limitations, and the medical skills learned through this book can only be known, not why. ”

Speaking of this, Chen Fan spread his hands and said with a smile, "In this case, it is better not to learn, otherwise, even if you learn, it will only be one more 'Doctor Zhang'." ”

He guessed in his heart, maybe this was also the reason why the medical skills had not been activated, and he hadn't even figured out the situation, so how could he be considered a beginner?

Only by "knowing the reason, the meaning, and the law" can you be regarded as mastering a skill.

This skill board is quite rigorous!

When Lu Siye heard his words, he muttered for two seconds, exhaled a long breath, and whispered, "Fan Xiwen has a saying, 'If you are not a good look, you are a good doctor', you are also a scholar, if you are interested in medical skills, I can give you a few words." ”

Chen Fan looked at him and blinked, still thinking in his heart who was Fan Xiwen?

Lu Siye thought he was waiting for his next words, so he said, "I don't understand Western medicine, so I won't talk about it." If you want to learn Chinese medicine, you can start with the four books of "The Three Characters of Medicine", "The Pulse of the Lake", "The Song of Medicinal Properties" and "The Song of the Soup", which are known as the four small classics and are the foundation of all Chinese medicine.

After studying, read "Acupuncture", "Shennong's Materia Medica", "Yellow Emperor's Neijing", "Treatise on Typhoid Fever and Miscellaneous Diseases", "Jin Kui", "Difficult Scripture", "Plague Debate", these books, after reading, if you can understand the whole text, you will be counted as entering the door.

Further up, it is the secret classics of various sects, but it is still far away, and it is too early to talk about these.

In this way, step by step, when you have a certain foundation, and then look at the barefoot doctor's manual, you will have a different understanding.

At that time, I will find you another teacher to teach you how to prick the pulse and needle, diagnose and use drugs, and with your understanding, you should be able to learn something in about ten years. ”

Chen Fan opened his mouth, his eyes a little dizzy.

Decade?

Is it so difficult to learn Chinese medicine?

Then he closed his chin and said, "But there are no books in the bookstore." ”

Fourth Master Lu pointed at him, bent over and laughed quietly, "Coincidentally, I have it here." ”

Then he walked into the room, searched under the bed, and pulled out a few books.

returned to the outer room and handed it to Chen Fan, and said cautiously, "It's hidden, but don't let people see it, and if you are seen, you can't say that I gave it to you." ”

Chen Fan took it in his hand and looked at it, it was the "Four Little Classics" that Lu Siye said just now.

Or thick vertical printing.

Look at this material, this printing quality, it won't be engraving printing, right?
