Chapter 435: Movement and Maintenance

Meng Zaihong stayed in the clinic for a while, and when she left, she took a bottle of linden honey that Han Li gave her.

Today's time passed quickly. After dinner, Han Li said goodbye to the two sisters and led the head dog to the shack halfway up the mountain.

Han Li sat on the stone in front of the shack. People always have to keep a heart to appreciate beautiful things, so he sat here to appreciate the clearer night sky after the rain.

Although appreciating beautiful things can cultivate sentiment and enhance one's sense of happiness, it can't resist the cold stone after the rain. Han Li didn't sit for a long time.

However, when Han Li got up to go back to the shack, he looked at the distant forest and was stunned for a while, because there were silver-white "ghost fires" in twos and threes.

"Ghost fire" usually appears in places where dead people are buried. After a long time, the corpse is exposed to the ground. At this time, the bones and hair will produce a kind of phosphorescence when they come into contact with the air. When they are blown around by the wind at night, they will glow.

Of course, there are also some small animals living there that have phosphorus on their fur, such as foxes, weasels, etc., and they will emit "ghost fire" when running at night because of the phosphorus on their bones.

Han Li didn't take these ghost fires seriously at first, but during this period of time, he saw the introduction of the local "Gastrodia elata" in a book.

In the northeast, wherever there are "ghost fires" at night, there is a high probability that Gastrodia elata will appear if there are no graves there.

But at this time, the Gastrodia elata in the place where the ghost fire appears must be dug up as soon as possible, otherwise the Gastrodia elata here will be useless.

This is because the Gastrodia elata grown in this environment will have a companion fungus, and its name is "Milk Coral Fungus".

Although Hazel Mushroom is also known as "Milk Coral Fungus", they are completely different.

This "Milk Coral Fungus" that accompanies Gastrodia elata belongs to the phosphorus class, and it can emit silver light at night.

And it will "eat" Gastrodia elata when it is almost done. This kind of eating is not eating the whole thing, but swallowing up the medicinal properties of Gastrodia elata from the inside, thus turning Gastrodia elata into a useless empty shell.

When sporadic will-o'-the-wisp fires appear at night, it means that the Gastrodia elata is now growing strong and well, but when a large area of ​​will-o'-the-wisp fires appear, it is too late, because at this time, the "Cordyceps militaris" has swallowed up all the medicinal properties of Gastrodia elata.

These two plants grow together. If you want Gastrodia elata to grow well, there must be a certain number of "Cordyceps militaris" around it. It is impossible to transplant and separate them.

This situation now shows that the Gastrodia elata there is growing well, but the chance of them wanting to survive the winter is very low. The top-quality Gastrodia elata that Han Li encountered last time is simply a rare existence.

However, it is late now, and Han Li can only remember that location and wait until tomorrow to go there to see the situation.

There was no conversation overnight. Han Li still practiced boxing and exercises after getting up the next day.

Then Han Li ran to the place where he found the will-o'-the-wisp fire last night. Sure enough, he found a large area of ​​Gastrodia elata there, but those "Cordyceps militaris" also formed a scale. There was no hope for Gastrodia elata to survive the winter, so Han Li could only dig them away here.

A few days passed like this, and Han Li's life was as peaceful and regular as ever.

He went to the field to work at night, went home in the morning to exercise with his wife, and went to help He Mi feed the flying dragon.

During this period, the wild fruits and mushrooms on the mountain can also be picked, but Han Li did not want to compete with the villagers and educated youth in the outer forests for these rare things, and he did not have enough time to go deep into the mountains.

Fortunately, the Yun sisters' sales outlet can accept these things. The only trouble is that in addition to drying herbs in their yard, they also have to dry some mushrooms.

Many things like wild fruits cannot be dried, and their storage time is very short, and their own winemaking cannot use so many.

But Han Li was reluctant to give up these good things. Anyway, they would not go bad if they were placed in his own decomposition space. Every time he ate them in the future, he would recall this time, which was something that no amount of money could buy.

So in order to cover up this problem, Han Li would ride a horse or a donkey at most every three days, carrying a large wicker basket full of wild fruits and go out for a stroll.

During this period, she also helped Meng Zaihong to deal with a fish weighing about 20 kilograms, as well as some other fish. It must be said that this girl who grew up by the Haihe River is indeed talented in catching fish. She lent Qi Ruying, Yuan Hongying and others food again.

The other educated youths have been doing well recently, because the crops don't need to be irrigated, and now the crops are more than one person tall. There are basically no weeds in the fields. Except when catching insects, everyone can be lazy and slack off at other times, so their spirits are generally good.

Every night, many people will sit at the door and chat, and the more powerful ones will walk a little deeper into the village to chat with the villagers.

Of course, Han Li and others who joined the autumn protection team are not included. They will go to the field after dinner.

Those educated youths who joined the autumn protection team began to complain a little, because now there is no trace of wild animals at all, and where would the meat come from without wild animals?

Village head Zhao and team leader Liang have been quite happy recently, because in previous years, they would never get another batch of educated youth sent down by this time. This year, it is almost autumn harvest and there is still no news, which means that there is a high probability that no educated youth will come down this year. This way, they will not only have less work to do, but the village will also be able to store more grain after the autumn harvest.

In addition to the beets growing well on the ground and the flying dragons that He Mi had successfully bred, both of them felt like they were about to fly. Sometimes, when they got together, they would even discuss whether to buy cows or horses first when the village had more money.

However, they had already agreed on one thing, that is, after the autumn harvest and before the grain distribution this year, the village must invite people to perform a movie, even if it costs twenty or thirty yuan to make the villagers happy and lively.

Today, Han Li came back from the shack and went out with the two sisters after breakfast.

The two of them went to the agency to open the door, while Han Li went to the barn to borrow a horse to go out.

However, this time he was not going to cover up the problem of wild fruits, but to go to the county town to check the body of Niu Dahai's wife Hou Xiujuan.

Last time, Niu Dahai made it clear that he did not trust the doctors in the county hospital. If he did not make a few more trips, he would have a hard time explaining it. Moreover, Hou Xiujuan was pregnant with twins this time, which was extremely dangerous in this era.

Hou Xiujuan remembered that because of what Qi Zhaodi said casually, she had prepared all the graduation certificates and files when she forgot. These were all favors she owed, so she had to try her best to ensure the health of the mother and child.

While Han Li was thinking, the horse had already arrived near the county town. Niu Dahai, this guy, didn't let his wife take leave, and he didn't know whether Hou Xiujuan was at home. No matter what, he had to go to the house first to take a look.

Even if the couple were not at home, it was okay, Director Niu's wife would definitely be there, and some relationships and favors were built in this way.

Han Li gently knocked the horse's belly and turned to the road leading to Niu Dahai's house. When Director Niu's wife knew that Han Li came here specially to check on her daughter-in-law, she quickly and enthusiastically invited Han Li to sit down.

However, as Han Li thought, the couple were really not at home. Although Hou Xiujuan did not take leave, Niu Dahai would go to the County Education Bureau whenever he had nothing to do during this period, and he almost regarded it as his second unit.

Han Li left their home with a smile. This time, he got a rough question from Niu Dahai's mother, that is, although Hou Xiujuan's family is not in Heilongjiang Province, it is not an ordinary family.

However, Han Li came to repay the favor, even if Hou Xiujuan's family is ordinary, he will do it truthfully.

Han Li rode a horse to the county education bureau. At that time, the education bureau did not have a separate office. It was located in a large courtyard with the committee, the ideological and political office and other parts.

And it only occupied a few small bungalows in the corner of the courtyard, which did not look like the scenery of the later generations.

However, Hou Xiujuan still had her own independent office, and Niu Dahai was still here. They were surprised to see Han Li, and then smiled and greeted him.

"Brother, why are you here?"

"I came to take my sister-in-law's pulse. My sister-in-law is pregnant with twins this time. There is no harm in checking more during this period."

"Thank you so much, brother."

In fact, after Niu Dahai's family knew that Hou Xiujuan was pregnant, they kept it a secret for more than three months before asking Han Li to come and check it.

However, Director Niu was worried and asked someone to find a famous doctor at the city hospital. Then he sent a car to take Niu Dahai and his wife to the city hospital for a special examination. As a result, the diagnosis of this famous doctor was similar to Han Li's, but he was even worse than Han Li in some small matters. However, this examination made their family believe in Han Li's two tricks even more.

Han Li knew Hou Xiujuan's condition as soon as he started. She and the two fetuses in her belly were very healthy.

No, it should be said that they were a little too healthy. In today's words, they were a little overnourished.

However, Hou Xiujuan was not suitable for medication at this time. Han Li thought about it for a while and gave a menu.

The couple looked at the names of the dishes on it and were confused. Chicken, beef, kelp, seaweed, sorghum, millet, brown rice, fish...

Did Han Li list the things he wanted to eat at noon? It shouldn't be, why are there sorghum and brown rice on it?

Han Li looked at the puzzled faces of the couple and said with a faint smile.

"My sister-in-law and my two nephews are very healthy, but my sister-in-law's food is a bit over the standard. The fetal movement of a six-month-old baby is similar to that of an eight-month-old baby. When the baby is born, the baby will be very big, and my sister-in-law will become a lot fatter, which is not conducive to childbirth. We all know that giving birth is like going through the gates of hell, so of course we have to do it as safely as possible.

So I suggest that my sister-in-law try to eat according to the food on this menu, and only eat until she is 80% full at most. If she is very hungry, she can use dried fish, pine nuts, pumpkin seeds and other things to fill her stomach. I will try to check my sister-in-law every half a month to ensure that my sister-in-law and nephew will not lack nutrition."

After Han Li finished speaking, Niu Dahai was still frowning and thinking, and Hou Xiujuan patted her thigh and said after she suddenly realized something.

"Brother, from now on you are my real brother, call me sister, not sister-in-law. When you say that, I think of my aunt. She died because her child was too big, but when it was my turn, I was always afraid that I would not eat enough and mistreat the child in my belly. If you hadn't reminded me, my sister might have died like my second aunt. Now I am so scared."
