Chapter 535: Northern "Spring City"
It goes without saying that everyone could guess what Ma Runping was going to do this time, but this time it was He Mi who stepped forward to stop her.
"Runping, why don't you go find your teammates now? If you miss the time, it will be difficult to form a team later."
After He Mi finished speaking, Yang Xiuying came over and said before Ma Runping replied.
"The harvesting of peanuts and potatoes these two days is a breather for the village. The labor intensity here is not too great. It will be tiring when we harvest sorghum and corn cobs later. If you can't keep up with your teammates at that time, you will be disliked."
Ma Runping saw Han Li chatting with Zhang Xiangjun and others in the distance, and didn't even look over here. Now that she was squeezed by these two people, she didn't know what to say. Her weak appearance was useless in front of the two girls, so she could only laugh dryly.
"Really? I thought it was the same as when we were cutting beans. I have had wounds on my palms for the past few days, and the blisters have turned into ugly calluses. Once, when I was squatting on the ground to cut beans, my knees were pierced by the roots of the beans. It hurt so much that I cried."
"Oh, everyone was like this in the first year. We knelt on the ground to cut beans. At that time, we didn't know how to go home and get on the kang. The whole person was completely numb, but as long as we persevere, it will be fine."
At this time, Yin Lanfen and Yun Jingjing also came over to chat, and it didn't end until Han Li and his team received the task and called them in front.
Time passed quickly. After harvesting underground crops such as peanuts and potatoes, a group of people in the village were released to thresh beans in the threshing field, while others were on the journey to harvest sorghum and corn cobs.
At this time, the large livestock in Shanghe Village also played a major role. Their village could use livestock to pull the stone mill to crush the beans, but villages without large livestock or with fewer livestock mostly used manual threshing.
For example, the nearby Xiaohe Village now has no livestock, so they can only have people hold a "flail" and knock the beans a little bit to make them fall out of the pods. This is not only a physical job, but also a technical job. If you are not careful, you will hurt yourself.
Because the flail is a tool made of a wooden stick with a movable wooden stick or bamboo strip connected to the head. It was originally developed by farmers to thresh grain, but later gradually transformed into chain hammers and nunchakus on the battlefield. It is definitely not uncommon for such things to hit you if they are not used properly.
Everyone has been busy working for a long time without realizing it. When they came to their senses, they found that this year's autumn harvest has been completed. Now there are only the finishing touches of threshing corn cobs and drying them in the warehouse.
At this time, whether it is the villagers or the educated youth, looking at the piles of grain piled up on the threshing ground, they all unconsciously showed a happy smile on their faces, and the children were tirelessly playing games on the straw and grain piles.
At this time, many people were holding corn threshers of this era. In Shanghe Village, they called it corn thresher, and some called it jade bean thresher or jade rice thresher.
In fact, it was a piece of wood with an iron block on it. Two grooves were cut on the corn cob with this iron block, and the cob with grooves was thrown to other people to rub the corn kernels with their hands.
However, this tool, which looked very rough in later generations, was called corn thresher in this era, and it was seen all over the country.
However, at this time, most of the women in the village gathered in groups of three or five in the threshing ground, chatting while working, and the whole scene was very lively.
The Liang family's long and the Zhao family's short, the neighboring village's wife cheated on the wild man, and the internal strife of the Zhang family in our village was not interrupted, all decided by Chunhua's kitchen knife.
In short, there was no such thing as these sisters-in-law, aunts, and aunts who didn't talk. It was normal for women to pull during the period. If a man happened to break in and his pants were taken off, it was just bad luck. Let everyone have fun and it was over.
However, most of the masters were cleaning the ground of crops. The most important thing was to transport the peanut seedlings and sweet potato seedlings back. These were the main food for the livestock in the village for the next six months, and no one could be careless.
Coincidentally, everyone entered a relaxing stage. Wu Lili felt happy that she had passed the dark period and was about to return to the glorious days of the past, so she was thinking about when to ask Han Li to treat her face these two days.
Although Ma Runping did not take Han Li's high-speed train throughout the autumn harvest, she found through her usual chats and the entanglement between the Yun sisters and He Mi that these people had unusually tender palms and faces.
Ma Runping's IQ immediately thought that this was because of Han Li. He must have some unknown secret recipe that could improve the rough skin and the formation of calluses, so she also planned to take advantage of the opportunity when no one was around these days to show her courage when Han Li saw her lower body naked, and try to ask Han Li for a method to make the skin delicate, even if it was the finished product that she paid for herself.
Unfortunately, Wu Lili and Ma Runping's plan was about to fail.
This morning, Niu Dahai rode a horse to Shanghe Village, but when he heard that Han Li was working in the threshing ground, he did not rush in directly, but asked a child to call Han Li out.
After hearing the news, Han Li said hello to the captain and walked back to the clinic.
After the two met, Niu Dahai did not hesitate, he spoke the truth straight to the point.
"Brother, this time I came here to ask for something. Your sister-in-law, oh, the eldest sister's sister-in-law from her natal family in "Spring City" is pregnant recently. Several old doctors have examined her and said it may be a mutilated fetus, because the eldest sister's sister-in-law has been married for four years. They just had this baby, and their family has been in a quarrel recently about the fate of this child, so..."
"Brother Niu and Sister Niu want me to go there?"
"Yes, yes, brother, you are more trustworthy than those old doctors. It would be great if you could make a trip, but..."
Han Li knew that when the Niu family and his son gave him a quota as a doctor in a commune health center against all the opinions, it was not that easy to get, so he was already prepared for today's situation. After hearing this, he readily agreed.
"Now is the autumn harvest time after all. Brother Niu allowed me to take one day to explain some trivial matters. I will definitely go to the county town early the day after tomorrow to do my best for my brother and sister. However, I can't guarantee what the final situation will be, but I will definitely make no secrets. Tell the truth."
Niu Dahai was very happy when he heard this. They made an appointment to meet in the county town the day after tomorrow, and he said goodbye and left.
Han Li watched Niu Dahai ride away on horseback. He sat in the clinic and thought for a long time, and finally understood the reason why Mr. Liu gave him so many foreign language teaching materials.
Because the "current" inspection machinery in this medical profession is not comprehensive, this is simply not a place or industry that ordinary people should stay in, unless you can just go with the flow and be lost in the crowd.
Otherwise, according to the current numerous factions and inheritances of traditional Chinese medicine across the country, and the fierce competition between traditional Chinese and Western medicine, no matter what the situation is, a person without inheritance or foundation may be crushed to pieces.
Don't talk about participating in the diagnosis and treatment of top people, just talk about the situation of sister-in-law Hou Xiujuan today. If Han Li goes there and just follows the crowd, he will be a bit lost in the crowd. All the things he has accumulated in front of Niu Dahai and his son will disappear in an instant. .
But if Han Li gives a different opinion based on the real situation after he gets there, he will later face the rejection of the entire "Spring City" Chinese medicine community in the Northeast, and even the rejection of Chinese medicine practitioners in half of the country. At that time, as long as Han Li has a little bit of Mistakes will be magnified infinitely, and you may end up with a ruined reputation and no foothold.
Thinking of this, Han Li couldn't help but sigh, Jiang is still old and hot. Although Mr. Liu didn't say it explicitly, he already regarded himself as one of his own in his behavior, and pointed out a relatively bright road without so many twists and turns, and This is also the limit of what he can do to himself at present.
Rebirth is not a panacea. These insights, experiences, and foresights do not happen overnight. You need to be careful, walk on thin ice, and treat everything with caution at all times.
After Han Li figured it out, he directly went to Village Chief Zhao and Captain Liang to tell the truth about Niu Dahai's arrival.
Of course, the two of them didn't want to offend the son of the leader of the committee, not to mention that this matter involved the other's in-laws. It was said that Director Niu's in-laws were also very powerful in Spring City, so Han Li's who-know-how-long vacation was taken away by them. Approved readily.
That night when Han Li was walking his dog, he ignored He Mi's exhaustion and handed her the food he had stored in the corner, and told her that he was going to Chuncheng for a medical visit.
After walking the dog and returning home and lying on the kang, the three of them "communicated" while Han Li talked about Chuncheng.
Han Li didn't go to work the next day. He needed to prepare some medicines at home that he might use, but by noon Wu Lili couldn't wait to come to the clinic.
"Han Li, the autumn harvest has been completed recently. I can choose to take leave from the following work. I wonder if you have time to help me remove these damn colors from my face."
"I have to go to a far away place for medical treatment recently, but before I leave, I can help you deal with a small part to see the effect. If you are not satisfied, it will not affect your current appearance at all."
When Wu Lili heard that Han Li was going on a long trip, she immediately started beating her heart, but when she heard that he would take care of some things before leaving, she immediately became extremely happy.
Because from Wu Lili's experience of being cheated, it was the best thing to do a little experiment first, so she immediately agreed, Han Li said after getting the reply.
"Then you go back and wash your face now, and then come over and let's try it for the first time."
Wu Lili quickly agreed and ran home and started washing her face seriously, in order to pursue the best results. She didn't know how many times she washed her face during this process, and she didn't stop until she felt a dull pain on her face.
