Chapter 688 688. Basking and moxibustion [two in one]
After laying down on my head, the heat in the air increased. After a heavy rain at night, the sun beat down on people's bodies the next day, almost as if their skin was about to be scorched.
We are used to doing farm work, but now even if we are just making marinated bags in the yard, we can no longer stand the heat until eight or nine o'clock.
But Wulan was thinking about Zhang Yanping and Dr. Guo, and her mood became anxious with the temperature.
She has been thinking about how to find out, but it is difficult to ask directly - what if the young people are thin-skinned, or have not considered such a long term?
Looking at Zhang Yanping, who had passed the incident and was still as if nothing had happened, he couldn't help but feel worried:
What's going on with this young man falling in love? Neither chatting nor seeing each other...is this a serious relationship?
But soon, she found an excuse.
No, I was scrolling through Douyin on my phone, and the Sanfu post came up again—
Actually, people in their village are not very interested in this thing. But it can be seen every day, and so many people are posting...
Ulan's heart moved and she asked at this moment:
“Tantan, do you wear Sanfu patches? I’ll go to Dr. Guo later to ask if he has any?”
When she asked questions, her pretense of nonchalance was very obvious. It would be better not to ask. Song Tan knew from the sound that her mother was doing such a good job.
Obviously I want to inquire about it.
But she didn’t stop her—there was no harm in sticking this thing anyway, it was just for peace of mind.
So he put aside the safety of his silly cousin and just nodded calmly:
“Okay, mom, go and ask.”
With the fair and aboveboard excuse, Ulan couldn't sit still at all. At this moment, he happily put on long sleeves and a straw hat and went out.
It was not yet 11:00 now. Along the way, her face was as steamy as red shrimp. She couldn't help but wipe the sweat from her face again, thinking:
She has too much to worry about for these children!
Unexpectedly, as soon as I entered Dr. Guo's yard, before I could say hello, there was a sudden roar of a motorcycle behind me!
Subsequently, a man's voice rang out, his tone full of panic and anxiety:
“Doctor Guo! Doctor Guo! Come and take a look. What’s wrong with my Zhang Hong?”
Zhang Hong? !
Ulan turned around subconsciously and saw that the middle-aged man was getting off the motorcycle in a hurry and turned to help a woman who was weak and pale.
—It was Zhang Hong who introduced Zhai Xiaoe to Shanshan before.
One said that Zhai Xiao'e was a faction. If he could not do it well, he was used to deceiving people. Zhang Hong was ashamed after hearing this. Wu Lan finally recovered after some consolation.
But now, looking at her ugly and pale face, Ulan quickly stretched out his arms to help support the person, and asked at the same time:
“What’s going on?”
Dr. Guo had already heard the noise and trotted out of the house quickly. He heard the man Zhang Hong say incoherently:
"I don't know! I was repairing the hoe, and the wedge of the **** at home fell off... When she heard something wrong, she fell off the stool!"
Several people dragged Zhang Hong into the house with help and support. Guo Dong also retracted his hand and quickly went to get the medicine from the shelf. He also asked her:
“Auntie, you’re suffering from heatstroke—it’s such a hot day, no matter what kind of work you have, you can’t do it now!”
Heat stroke? !
Ulan was shocked!
She has shed a layer of skin along the way. Why does she work so hard to look like this?
After drinking a bottle of Huoxiang Zhengqi Oral Liquid, Zhang Hong regained some strength and said weakly:
“I didn’t do anything...I just sat on a stool to bask in the sun...”
Hearing this, the man Zhang Hong understood instantly and couldn't help but curse:
“I’m telling you, don’t follow other people’s nonsense. You still talk about basking on your back to drive away the cold. If I wasn’t at home, you wouldn’t even know I was basking in the sun!”
Guo Dong couldn't help but be speechless.
It makes sense to bask in the back to drive away the cold, but first of all, it’s definitely not like doing it in the middle of the day, and secondly...
“Auntie, you who work in the fields all year round, when did you lack the sun?”
As soon as these words came out, Zhang Hong was also stunned.
Yeah, basking in the sun is a more popular way of keeping healthy among city people after they haven’t seen the sun for a long time, but they...
Even though her face was pale and very weak, Ulan couldn't laugh or cry at this moment:
“You tell me, you are still learning this and that from others at your age...how come you are not reliable at all?”
Zhang Hong was also quite embarrassed: "I didn't catch the cold when I was young. Now I always feel a little uncomfortable in my arms and legs. I thought that sunbathing could dispel the cold... Besides, everyone on Douyin is sunbathing, so I Watching more than a dozen a day is definitely effective.”
He asked Guo Dong without giving up: "Dr. Guo, do you think this is a detoxification reaction?"
Guo Dong responded ruthlessly: "No, you just have heat stroke - if you stay in the sun for a while next time, I won't be able to cure heat stroke."
The man Zhang Hong was anxious: "You don't have a long memory?! As for keeping the cold away, why don't you ask Dr. Guo to pull out a cup for you? Why do you have to be in the sun? Just walking around today can kill you with heat."
Ulan couldn't help but say to her: "You, you don't know. What Douyin recommends to you is what you like to watch and watch a lot of - what is big data? Big data is what you watch, the more you watch." The more it pushes you, the more you can see so many people basking in one go!”
She also gave an example: "Look, I haven't seen many of them!"
But Big Data only pushed Sanfu posts to her, so Ulan didn't say this.
However, someone at home does live broadcasts every day, and Zhang Yanping and Xin Jun often talk professionally when chatting. Now she can also use big data in chats.
When Zhang Hong heard this, she felt that it was really the case.
But when it comes to cupping, Ulan is also interested. At this moment, he couldn't help but look at Guo Dong expectantly:
“Dr. Guo, I feel that my lower back is uncomfortable. Can I pull it out? Don’t people say that cupping and fire therapy are effective in the dog days of summer?”
Guo Dong was really dumbfounded - he never thought that he would still have such a function in the village?
After thinking for a while, he simply said: "Then don't do any fire therapy. Then, Auntie, just wait for me for two days and I will prepare."
“I’ll give you some cupping and moxibustion later. If you feel uncomfortable, I’ll drive away the cold, loosen the stasis, and clear the meridians.”
Cupping? Moxibustion? !
Ulan suddenly became energetic: "What do you want to prepare? I'll do it with you."
"nothing."
Guo Dong was a little embarrassed: "On your mountain, there are a lot of wormwood in the fields over the chestnut forest. I have to cut more this time."
He also explained: "The quality of moxa on the market now varies. I think the quality of the moxa on the mountain is particularly good, so there is no need to buy it."
"I'll go chop some off and dry it in the morning and evening. When we come back, we can use it to smoke moxa ourselves. It doesn't cost anything."
It doesn’t cost any money, it just takes some effort, and the elderly in the village will probably be willing to come two more times.
Ulan also remembered:
“Indeed! Our mugwort is the one we got during the Dragon Boat Festival. Burning a handful now is very effective in repelling mosquitoes!”
But moxibustion, this cannot be solved with one or two bundles - she couldn't help but feel excited, and other people in the village certainly couldn't help it!
Not to mention anything else, with so many people in his family, I’m afraid everyone will have to try it again. The mugwort is not short of a little or two.
Ulan immediately agreed: "Well, we have a lot of family members. Dr. Guo, you can pull out all the troubles."
"As for the wormwood, I just ask them to go up the mountain to cut it. You go about your business, don't delay."
Looking at Zhang Hong again, seeing that her face looked much better, Ulan sighed: "You too, how can you go through such trouble? Just rest at home and show yourself in a mess later. See if everyone laughs at you."
“Besides, Dr. Guo is the doctor in our village. What do you want to do? Why don’t you ask the existing doctor?”
And Zhang Hong…
She was embarrassed to say anything.
Even though Dr. Guo was retained by them through all possible means, he was still young, and people who usually come here for injections and water would not be able to tell the difference. Isn’t it truer that the people in white coats on the internet swear by it are true?
However, when he turned around, Ulan had already gone back in a hurry.
As for Yan Ping’s thing... Oops, it’s been said on the internet that it’s a good time to get rid of the cold in the dog days of summer! She had to hurry up and chop the wormwood. Let the children take care of their own affairs!
Song Tan didn't expect that her mother went out to ask for San Fu Tie, but not a single piece of San Fu Tie was found, and the mugwort task was suppressed.
What else can I say? This is my mother!
She had no choice but to sigh: "We'll go cut it when night comes."
The sun will set by then and it won’t be so hot. We can still hold on if we do a little work.
As for mugwort...this thing grows fast and vigorously. It was obvious that the crop had been cut during the Dragon Boat Festival, but now it has cropped up again around the chestnut garden.
However, the role of this mugwort in their home is limited to making a few green dumplings during the Qingming Festival and burning a handful in the yard every day to repel mosquitoes.
—I really haven’t thought about doing moxibustion.
Zhang Yanping and Xin Jun are full of expectations: "If it is really effective, we can plant some mugwort in the corners next year, which will also bring in a lot of money!"
He was clearly looking for money. Song Tan glanced at him and thought, when you cut the wormwood, you won't think so.
So at five or six o'clock, people who had just gotten off work and were still working overtime took out their mobile phones, and unexpectedly discovered—their anchor Qiao Qiao, who never announced anything. The live broadcast started silently again!
【I am coming. 】
【I can never catch up with the live broadcasts in the morning, so I have to wait for the ones in the evening】
【There are a lot of people in the subway, I didn’t bring headphones】
【The traffic is still heavy at night! How old is this, so many people]
【What's on tonight? 】
【What to have for dinner? 】
【I haven’t broadcast for a few days, the little mouse from last time...】
The barrages came in in a mess.
And Qiaoqiao put the mobile phone up and said seriously:
“Children, today I will teach you how to cut mugwort. Doctor Guo from our village said to dry it in the sun for two days and use it for moxibustion and cupping for everyone—today, let’s start with harvesting!”
After he finished speaking, he turned around and picked up the sickle, throwing everyone in the live broadcast room directly away and into the lush wormwood grassland on the side.
The barrage suddenly became lively—
【Moxibustion and cupping! I want to do it too! 】
【The Health Bureau must follow up immediately】
【Does the anchor make Aizhu by himself? 】
【Is it on the shelves? I really want to buy it]
【The moxa sticks bought in pharmacies vary in quality...】
【Ai Zhu has to buy **** Ai Zhu, the quality is better over there】
【I bought a moxibustion mat and sit on it every day】
【Just sitting is not enough, you have to moxibustion the Yongquan point on the soles of your feet】
【What? Do you pay so much attention to moxibustion? 】
That is, shouldn’t you tie a few moxibustion boxes to your stomach or waist? 】
【Moxibustion has a systematic theory. Smoking moxa on the soles of the feet can draw fire downwards and prevent fire from becoming strong】
【Learned! 】
【Learned! 】
【Try it tonight! 】
【It’s too hot, I don’t even want to soak my feet】
【Let’s wait until autumn for this...】
【Dog Days has good effects! Everyone in our family needs cupping during the dog days of summer】
Zhang Yanping took advantage of watching the live broadcast room to take advantage of the opportunity. At this moment, staring at the barrages that flashed by quickly, he actually learned a little bit of scattered knowledge -
If you really want to say that, their mugwort business has great potential!
But look at the flat hillside that has mostly been excavated in the distance—yeah! With Tantan's personality, she definitely doesn't want to grow just one thing.
Fortunately, there are a lot of these things growing all over the mountains and plains. Anyway, they are more prosperous during this period of time than during the Dragon Boat Festival. It is definitely enough for the temporary use.
He thought about it and saw that everyone else around him had bent down, so he put a small fan on his chest and a wide straw hat on his head. He clumsily and cautiously cut the sickle bit by bit, for fear that it would be too blunt. The sickle scratched his leg.
Who would have thought that when I grabbed the mugwort with my palm, an emerald green grasshopper jumped over on the overturned leaf!
Zhang Yanping grabbed it without saying a word, then took out his cell phone—
Photograph! Hair tie!
Just at this moment, Qiao Qiao had already put down the bundle of mugwort. Seeing Zhang Yanping still playing with his mobile phone, he couldn't help but sigh and shook his head:
“Brother Yanping is really lazy.”
Zhang Yanping:…
Fortunately, adults have always been thick-skinned. At this moment, he pinched two grasshopper legs and handed them to Qiaoqiao:
"I'm not lazy. Isn't this just catching some bugs and feeding them to our family?"
Qiaoqiao looks down on this little grasshopper very much:
“Brother, please stop arresting me. You are not as big as our little rooster!”
“The long tail is now with the little rooster every day, and it is very fattening.”
Zhang Yanping:…
People can't, at least they shouldn't - he only took a month's leave, and when he came back, his status was even lower than that of a little rooster!
However, just as this thought flashed through his mind, the grasshopper warrior in his hand broke his wrist, and he tried hard to pull away -
I don’t need my two powerful thick legs, and I have to jump into the grass!
Zhang Yanping:…
He pinched the two green grasshopper legs in a daze, his whole body sluggish.
At this moment, Ulan also raised his head and said quickly:
"You two, stop playing around. You see, Teacher Xin Jun has cut so much even though he has never done farm work."
“Yan Ping, Dr. Guo wants the mugwort, you should also show your performance!”
This kid is so big, what's the use if you don't have a sharp mind?
Zhang Yanping:…
For a while, his whole body became numb—
Am I being despised to this extent now?
Today is my 30th birthday, and I celebrated it with satisfaction!
Good night.
Still a two-in-one chapter.
