Song Yun didn't know that she had been targeted by a poisonous snake. When she and Ziyi returned to the Song family courtyard, Qi Mo Nan had not come back yet. There was a lot more firewood in the yard, and the woodshed had been cleaned up. The firewood chopped yesterday was moved into the woodshed by Qi Mo Nan, occupying only a small part of the space, about one-fifth.
We chopped more firewood today. At this rate, the firewood room will be full soon.
After lunch, the villagers who had ordered medicine came one after another. Song Yun wrapped the sorted herbs in waste newspapers according to the dosage. She wrote detailed instructions for decoction and dosage on each medicine package. For families where no one could read, she also drew pictures to avoid mistakes.
The villagers who got the medicine returned home happily and soon brought back vegetables, beans and other things from their homes.
Most people were reluctant to bring eggs, as cabbage, sweet potatoes and beans were the most abundant crops at home. After a busy day, Song Yun collected half a sack of sweet potatoes, at least three or four pounds of beans, half a basket of cabbage, a few eggs, but only a few, and two people took a pound of cornmeal, which was considered generous.
But Song Yun was not picky. These things were exactly what she needed, so she happily put them in the cellar.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, no one came to pick up medicine, so Song Yun closed the door and started making pills. She planned to make some pills to treat colds and colds, and pills to clear the lungs and relieve coughs. These are common medicines for common diseases. After making them, she would bring them to the clinic. When she met patients with the right symptoms, they could get the medicine directly, saving her the trouble of going back and forth.
Song Yun was making pills at home, while Qi Mo Nan took Zi Yi to the mountains to hunt. When they came back in the evening, they brought back two pheasants, a wild rabbit, and half a basket of fresh wild vegetables. Qi Mo Nan also got a dead tree today, which made the villagers he met at the foot of the mountain jealous. However, they did not dare to go into the mountains by themselves, so they picked up some dead branches and twigs on the side of the mountain. If they wanted a big dead tree, they had to invite a few more people and bring their tools before they dared to go into the mountains.
The family had almost finished eating the steamed buns. Song Yun had fermented the dough in the afternoon, and now the dough was almost fermented, so she steamed it first and boiled water to prepare the pheasants and rabbits.
She will start storing food for the winter from now on. She doesn't plan to eat pheasants or rabbits today. Her parents and the two elderly people are in almost the same health now, so there is no need for them to eat meat every day. As long as they can eat enough and get enough nutrition, it will be fine.
The collected pheasants and rabbits are marinated with salt and then hung up to dry in the air.
In order to change the taste, Song Yun made a basket of steamed buns, a basket of sugar buns, and a basket of wild vegetable vermicelli buns. She made small marks on the buns of different flavors so that everyone could tell what they were eating at a glance.
Song Ziyi likes candy buns the most. Which child can resist sweet food?
Qi Monan prefers wild vegetable vermicelli buns, which are his favorite refreshing flavor. Although he can eat spicy food and likes spicy food, the taste he is most accustomed to is the light taste he developed since childhood. However, after joining the army and eating in the cafeteria with his comrades, his taste gradually became more diverse and he could eat all kinds of flavors.
As the night deepened, two adults and one child quietly came out from the back door of the courtyard. Song Yun and Qi Monan each held a quilt, and Song Ziyi carried a basket of steamed buns in one hand and pear paste and pills made by his sister in the other.
Arriving at the cowshed, under the sparse starlight and moonlight, Song Yun saw that the door of the shed where the couple from the Beijing Institute used to live was wide open. It was pitch black inside and there was no sound at all. There were some miscellaneous items at the door that she couldn't make out clearly.
The three of them walked lightly and stood at the door of the cowshed for a while. After making sure that there was no one in the room, they entered the yard and gently knocked on the door of Song Hao and his wife's shed.
The door opened quickly, and Song Hao invited them in. Bai Qingxia turned on the light and said with a smile, "I guess you will come today."
Song Yun placed the quilt on the bed. "Dad, Mom, what happened over there? Aren't there a couple from the Beijing Research Institute living here? Why are they gone?"
