Chapter 176: Ji Lao is sick

Aunt Xinghua smiled happily: "It is beautiful. I remember that Song Zhiqing was not good at making these. This must be something he learned recently."

"Hey, you two seem to be a good match. When are you going to get engaged and married? Are you thinking about it?"

Lin Zhen immediately said, "She and I have agreed to get engaged next month, but we haven't chosen a wedding date yet."

Auntie Xinghua slapped her thigh and said, "That's fine. You two young people don't have anyone to guide you at home. Do you have any rules?"

"I went to ask my great grandmother, and I'm ready to buy the things needed for the engagement and wedding, but I'll need your help with my partner."

Of course Aunt Xinghua agreed immediately and was very enthusiastic.

"Ahem...have we agreed? Let's discuss business."

After thinking it over, the captain said, "Since this thing was invented by Song Zhiqing, let's call Song Zhiqing over to discuss it together."

This is a big deal. The captain rubbed his hands excitedly and said, "Can I go to your house to check on the vegetables?"

Lin Zhen naturally agreed: "But I have to go and deliver these vegetables to Grandpa's house and Mr. Ji first."

Captain: "...You are not going to hide it at all now, are you?"

No one in the team dared to contact the people from the cowshed. He knew that this kid secretly went to see Old Ji at night, but Old Ji was a great Chinese doctor. He had already gone through so much trouble to see the old Chinese doctor to see if he could do anything, so he could only turn a blind eye.

Lin Zhenxian went to his great-grandfather's house to deliver some vegetables, which obviously shocked the whole family again.

The old man, trembling with his crutches, wanted to go to Lin Zhen's house to see the so-called off-season vegetables.

In the end, there was no choice but for his son to carry him there.

Lin Zhen asked them to go first and ran to the cowshed.

“Cough cough cough…”

A coughing sound came from the cowshed.

Lin Zhen's expression changed and he immediately pushed the door open.

I saw Mr. Ji lying on the kang, but the room was not warm and he was still coughing.

The old man's face was a little red and he looked like he had a fever.

"Lin Zhen is here, and Old Ji has a cold and we don't have any herbal medicine here. What should we do?" They were almost dying of anxiety.

Their identities are special, so they don't have medicine or anything like that.

Even though Mr. Ji is an experienced Chinese medicine doctor, he cannot cook without rice, and without medicine, everything is useless.

Lin Zhen asked quickly, "What medicine do you need? Song Zhiqing delivers herbs to the hospital every once in a while, so she should have some in stock."

Mr. Ji was already in poor health, and now he had caught a severe cold that made him look almost dead.

The most important thing is that the kang here is not warm.

He coughed and mentioned several medicines in a weak voice.

Lin Zhen tried hard to remember the names of several herbs: "I'll go get some more firewood to light the kang first."

Then he turned around and ran towards the Youth League Home.

In fact, the best solution is to find a village doctor, but the village doctor is not from their village, but from several surrounding brigades.

His clinic is a bit far from the Ping'an Brigade, and it's hard to find him now that it's snowing so heavily.

And even if you go there you may not be able to find it.

Many people get sick in winter, and the village doctor is busier than anyone else.

After much thought, Lin Zhen finally decided to go to Song Wei to see if he had these medicines.

His other foot hasn't fully healed yet, but he can still use it with a little help.

Even so, his speed is no worse than that of an adult man.

When Song Wei heard Lin Zhen calling her, she immediately put down what she was holding and ran out of the room.

"What's wrong?"

Seeing his solemn and serious expression, Song Wei's heart skipped a beat.

"Mr. Ji is seriously ill."

He read out the herbs that Mr. Ji mentioned: "Do you have any of these herbs here?"

Song Wei nodded: "There are two types that we don't have. The captain has a bicycle at home, right? You go find the captain and ask him to go to the clinic to see if there is any. I'll take the others first."

She quickly grabbed the herbs and started working with Lin Zhen with a clear division of labor.

Heidan and the two wolf cubs were left to Li Juan and others to take care of.

Before leaving, Lin Zhen said, "Take some firewood with you. They probably don't have much firewood left."

Song Wei: "Okay."

Soon she was heading towards the cowshed carrying a large pile of firewood and medicine.

Song Wei also brought some old ginger and boiled it for Mr. Ji to drink.

The other two people in the cowshed were also busy making the fire bigger and boiling water to prepare medicine.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Song Wei listened to Mr. Ji's weak voice and grabbed the right amount of herbs to mix. He just had to wait for the remaining two to arrive before cooking them.

We didn't have to wait too long. The captain's youngest son quickly brought the medicine on his bicycle. From his wheezing, we could tell how hard he was trying to get there.

Finally, the medicine was ready and given to Mr. Ji to drink.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw him sweating while asleep.

"We can't go on like this. They are too weak and don't have enough firewood to last through the winter."

The people in the cowshed do all the dirty and tiring work. They are usually very tired and have no time to go to the mountains to collect firewood, so they use the firewood sparingly.

This is why Mr. Ji fell ill.

Lin Zhen: "I'll go get them some dry firewood."

Song Wei: "Go to my place and fetch some. I'll go up the mountain and pick some up for you."

She was going into the mountains anyway.

Lin Zhen: "I can walk now. I'll go into the mountains and look for it. It's not hard to find it."

Song Wei glared at him and said, "You've just gotten out of bed and you're already floating around. Did you walk on that leg when you first went to the Youth Home? Don't you want your leg anymore?"

The tall and rough man was now so cowardly that he was scolded by the petite Song Wei.

Jiang Wenwu was watching the show from the side and shaking his head. He remembered that Brother Lin Zhen was fearless in the past. When he was only a teenager, he dared to go to the mountains to fight wild boars.

I didn’t expect that Brother Lin Zhen was afraid of his wife, hahaha.

"Anyway, use the firewood I have first. I have plenty of it."

Lin Zhen said "oh", touched his nose and didn't dare to refute.

Since Mr. Ji had fallen asleep, they did not stay to disturb him. Lin Zhen handed the bunch of green vegetables beside him to the other two people in the cowshed.

"These are out-of-season vegetables that we harvested ourselves. You can try them."

Then the three of them left directly.

The two old men looked confused as they held the tender and crispy green vegetables.

What? Off-season vegetables?!

"Song Zhiqing, please come with us. My dad wants to discuss the issue of off-season vegetables with the village party secretary. This is something you came up with, so you should come too."

Song Wei didn't refuse, and the three of them went to Lin Zhen's house.

When the captain saw them, he asked about Mr. Ji's situation.

Song Wei suddenly said, "Captain, several of our surrounding brigades rely on the village doctor at the clinic. Is he very busy?"

The captain took a puff of his cigarette and said, "That's right. In this winter, all kinds of illnesses arise in the elderly, such as backaches or leg pains. Children are most likely to catch colds. There are only him and two apprentices in the clinic, and the two apprentices can only help out and are not very busy."
