Rebirth 78, marry Qingmei as my wife

Chapter 5 Dad’s Iron Man

But in this era, 17-year-olds have already taken on most of the housework at home. Many girls are already married at the age of 17, and some even become mothers of children.

After sending Yang Qiuyan away, Liu Hongjun looked at the pot, added some water, and then added a piece of firewood to the stove.

"Red Army, where are you cooking?" A young woman walked in holding a three or four-year-old child.

"Sister-in-law Vanilla, here you come!" Seeing the person coming, Liu Hongjun stood up and said hello.

"Hongjun, my eldest nephew, I don't know what he ate. He has been having diarrhea since yesterday!" Vanilla said to Liu Hongjun with some embarrassment.

People were cooking, and she came over to talk about diarrhea, which was really not very particular.

However, I have to say it.

Liu Hongjun didn't care about this. How could a doctor care about this?

Don't talk about this, in your last life, on the battlefield, after the battle, guarding the corpse, even with the enemy's blood on your hands, why didn't you still stuff the steamed buns into your mouth?

While feeling the child's pulse, he asked: "Diarrhea? What shape is the diarrhea? Is there any foam in the stool?"

"The poop is all water, with yellow foam on it!"

"Did you throw up?"

"no!"

"It's nothing serious. It's dysentery. Does Sister-in-law Vanilla have any garlic at home?"

"There's garlic!"

"As long as you have garlic, I'll give my eldest nephew two injections first, and then I'll go home and roast two heads of garlic for him and he'll be fine!"

“Roasted garlic would work?”

"Yes, roasted garlic is a great cure for dysentery and diarrhea!" Liu Hongjun said with a smile.

Liu Hongjun went into the house and found the alcohol lamp and the acupuncture kit left by his father.

After lighting the alcohol lamp, first roast the silver needle on the alcohol lamp, then wipe it with alcohol cotton, and prick a needle on Zusanli and Shenmen.

"Okay! Remember to roast two heads of garlic when you get home!" Liu Hongjun pulled out the silver needle and told the vanilla again.

"Yeah! I'll roast garlic for him when I get back! Thank you, Red Army!

My sister-in-law has time and doesn't bring any money. I'll ask your brother Quanhai to deliver it to you when I get back. "After Vanilla finished speaking, she hugged the child and walked out happily.

"Not in a hurry.

Go home, use warm water, add a little salt, and feed it to your child! "Liu Hongjun shouted at Vanilla's back.

"Yeah!" Vanilla hugged the child and left in a hurry.

After sending away the herbs, Liu Hongjun washed his hands and prepared to eat.

When I opened the pot, a smell of meat came out.

Meat stewed eggplant and instant noodle pancakes are a perfect match.

Eggplant loves oil. Eggplant stewed with large oil and pork will smell like meat.

The tasteless pancake absorbs the eggplant soup and becomes fragrant.

Liu Hongjun took a look and saw that there was still a lot of soup inside. He was not in a hurry to eat anyway, so he covered the pot and simmered it for a while.

I went into the house to find a medical book, sat under the pomegranate tree and started reading.

The most common thing in his family is medical books, and I don’t know how his father collected them.

In his last life, because he went to join the army, he left for 15 years. These medical books were collected by his elder brother. After he was discharged from the army, most of these medical books were lost because his elder brother moved several times, which made him regretful.

After reading the medical book for a while and seeing that the fire in the pot was out, Liu Hongjun put away the medical book, opened the pot, and poured the stewed eggplant into a basin.

In the Northeast, stews are eaten more often, so no one is short of a pot.

It's not a porcelain basin, but a clay pot made from a nearby commune.

I don’t know if it’s because of a dream or because of rebirth.

Liu Hongjun's appetite became very large. Liu Hongjun ate all the stew and five pancakes.

These pancakes are not small. Each pancake is equivalent to a large steamed bun. The large steamed buns from Northeast China weigh half a catty.

Just after dinner, while washing the pots and dishes, Qian Shengli walked in carrying a piece of meat.

"Brother Shengli, have you eaten?" Liu Hongjun quickly put down his bowls and chopsticks and went to greet him.

"Eat, Xiong Zila is back, this is for you!" Qian Shengli said and put the meat in his hand on the stone table.

This is a piece of meat from Xiong Zan's belly.

The meat on the bear's belly is all fat. In this era, it is the most popular part.

Fatty meat can be refined into bear fat.

Bear oil is more fragrant than pork suet when used for cooking.

Bear oil is not only delicious for cooking, but it is also a valuable nourishing Chinese medicine.

Bear oil can strengthen muscles and bones, nourish blood and deficiency, dispel rheumatism, moisturize the skin, and treat chilblains.

If your skin is frostbitten in winter, apply bear oil and it will heal quickly.

The piece of fat that Qian Shengli sent to Liu Hongjun weighed about twenty kilograms.

This is also the rule. After every hunting, the meat is divided among the village, and the hunter gets the most.

Otherwise, why would people take risks and go hunting?

Of course, this is because Yushutun is still under the production team system and has not yet implemented household-based production quotas or household divisions.

When a hunter goes into the mountains to hunt, he has to pay for his work with the prey.

Every year, the production team organizes a concentrated hunt before the autumn harvest.

The first is to prevent the wild animals from the mountains from coming out of the mountains and harming the crops; the second is to take care of wild animals to replenish the strength of the members so that they can have the strength to work during the autumn harvest.

"Brother Shengli, drink water!" Liu Hongjun gave Qian Shengli a bowl of water with a little sugar in it.

"You get busy, I'm leaving!" Qian Shengli picked up the bowl, drank it all in one breath, and then turned around and left.

"Brother Shengli, what do you do with those wolf bones and bear bones?"

"What do you want that thing for? The captain said that the cauldron will be cooked tonight and he will improve the food for everyone."

"Wolf bones and bear bones are both medicinal materials, and I definitely want them here!" Liu Hongjun said.

Naturally, Liu Hongjun couldn't say that he wanted wolf bones and bear bones to make dog food.

"If you didn't tell me earlier, just wait. I'll go back and tell the captain to leave the bones for you." Qian Shengli left in a hurry after saying this.

This time is the busiest time for the militia.

They have to be on duty 24 hours a day to imitate wild animals coming out of the mountains to harm crops and to prevent wild animals from hurting people.

Even so, people are injured by wild animals almost every year.

There are many widows in the village, and most of their men were injured by wild animals.

As soon as Qian Shengli was sent away, Liu Hongjun was preparing to boil bear fat into bear oil when a middle-aged woman walked in.

"Aunt Guixiang is here!" Seeing the person coming, Liu Hongjun could only put down his fat and say hello.

"Red Army! I heard that you killed a bear and two wolves today?"

"Yeah!" Liu Hongjun nodded.

Then he turned around and went into the house, took another bowl, gave the other party a bowl of water, and also added a little sugar.

Boiled water with some sugar is a very high etiquette in this era when entertaining people in the village.

"Aunt Guixiang, drink some water!"

"Why are you so polite with your aunt?

I'll come over and see if there's any laundry!

Tell me, how will your life be like when your father leaves and you are left alone? "Aunt Guixiang said, wiping away tears.

Liu Hongjun was speechless for a while. He said this as if his father was gone.

This Yu Guixiang is a widow in the village. She is in her 30s. When she was in her twenties, the man was scratched by a black blind man when he went into the mountains.

At the same time, he is also the confidant of Liu Hongjun's father and one of his recipients of support.

Tiezi in Northeastern dialect does not mean good brother as mentioned on the Internet. That is all nonsense.

Tie Zi in the Northeast refers to a good friend or lover, which is called Pang Jian'er in Beijing dialect.

Dad went down the mountain to see his eldest grandson. The one who misses him the most is probably Yu Guixiang.

Liu Hongjun didn't care when he arrived. He felt more at ease when his father was not here.

After all, he lost his mother when he was a child. He began to study Chinese medicine with his father at a very young age, and went hunting in the mountains with him at the age of 16. He lived a very independent life, so Liu Hongjun really didn't feel anything.

The one who really doesn’t know how to live her life is probably Aunt Guixiang.

After all, for a widow in her 30s with three and a half-year-old children, life is bound to be difficult.

Half-year-old children can't get full work points for working, but they eat as much as adults.

Life is hard during the day, and even harder at night.

"That's it! I know how to wash clothes, cook and so on. Captain Yang and I also agreed to take over my father's job and work as a health worker in the village!"

"That's a good relationship! It's good to be a hygienist.

You are a grown man, how can you handle the housework?Later, ask your sister Xiaojuan to come over and help you wash your clothes, clean up the house and so on. "

"No, Aunt Guixiang, I'm an unmarried young man, and Sister Xiaojuan is also sixteen. It's inconvenient for her to come over and help me clean up!

It is easy to cause gossip. How will Miss Xiaojuan get married in the future? Liu Hongjun quickly refused.

Yu Guixiang had said before that she wanted to marry her daughter to him, but her father refused.

Dad is still very sober in this regard. He has spare money and no shortage of food and meat. He can help the widow to be okay.

We can't let our son suffer.

Now, knowing that he was engaged, he still asked his daughter to come over and clean up the house for him. It was obvious what his intentions were.

"Aunt Guixiang, when my father was at home, you always helped us with mending. If you have any difficulties in the future, just tell us and I will help if I can!" Liu Hongjun quickly interrupted when he saw that Guixiang still wanted to speak. She continued.

Those who can help will definitely help, and conversely, if they can’t help, I can’t do anything about it.

"Red Army, you are just like your father, both so kind and righteous!

I know you may look down on me and think I'm not serious...

But, what can I do as a widow?

Thanks to your father for helping me these years, otherwise we, orphans and widowed mothers, really don’t know how we would have lived. Yu Guixiang said and wiped away tears again.

Liu Hongjun couldn't help but sigh to himself. It turned out that when he returned to this era, the first thing he had to face was the chicken feathers left by his father.

"Aunt Guixiang, Xiaojuan and the others have grown up, and life will get better in the future!

It just so happens that brother Shengli just sent me some bear meat. You can take some back and improve the lives of your younger brothers and sisters. "Liu Hongjun picked up the knife, cut the fat meat in two, and handed one half to Yu Guixiang.

"How can this be done? You can keep it for yourself! We have it at home!" Yu Guixiang quickly refused.

"Aunt Guixiang, take it! How much can I eat by myself? You have a large family, so the little meat you share is not enough!" Liu Hongjun took a straw rope, tied up the meat and stuffed it into Yu Guixiang's hand. .

"Look, you kid, I told you to come here and help you wash your clothes and clean up the house." Yu Guixiang said with an embarrassed look on her face.

"It's okay, Aunt Guixiang, take it! I'm a big young man, I have hands and feet, I can take care of it myself!"

After finally sending Yu Guixiang away, Liu Hongjun let out a sigh of relief.

Facing Guixiang, Liu Hongjun was really awkward.

As someone who has been there, I have no objection to my father helping the poor.

After all, men all have physical and psychological needs. It is not a big deal for my father to not remarry because of him, but to occasionally help others.

Everyone in the village knew it, and no one gossiped.

A widow and a widower have nothing to do with morality.
