"Xiao Huang, come to my house to find me when everyone is asleep at night."
Although Huang Xiaohuang didn't know what Qiu Yantang wanted to do, she must have her reasons for letting it go.
It nodded.
After Qiu Yantang finished her instructions, she went home. Someone had to go and make the bed for her later.
The journey was quite quiet. I didn't see any people, and of course no ghosts.
When I got home, I saw Qiuhua sitting outside.
"Why are you sitting here?"
Qiuhua spends most of her time tending to their vegetables in the yard and rarely sits here.
"Little Ancestor, aren't we here to make the kang? We're all men, it's inconvenient..."
Qiu Yantang was speechless for a while, but this kind of awareness was actually quite good, much better than those casual ones in modern times.
"Let's go and take a look."
As soon as Qiu Yantang entered the yard, he heard a sound coming from the chimney, "Gudong gudong..."
"Let it go, let it go, let it go again."
"Gudong, gudong!"
"Little Ancestor is back. Don't come near here yet. The ash is too thick. We've checked and both chimneys are blocked. Let's hit them with a weight."
The weight was a large one with a rope tied to it, and it was hammered down from the top of the chimney. There was a lot of charred ash inside, and it was stuck in the lower middle position.
The big weight is relatively heavy, and with this handy tool, it can be done quickly and directly.
"Is there a problem with the kang?" Qiu Yantang asked. If it was just a problem with the chimney, that would be great. They just needed to solve this problem.
Jin San nodded and said, "My dear, the kang is quite blocked, but it's okay. We can just dig out some of it and then grind it with mud."
He was still very confident, after all, this kang was a little old.
"Let's fix it." Qiu Yantang scratched his head. No matter what the reason was for the kang not being warm, it was great that the problem could be solved in the end.
After hearing Qiu Yantang's words, Jin San worked even harder and picked up a sledgehammer and smashed it on the kang.
Qiu Yantang's mind rang with the words, "Eighty! Eighty! Eighty..."
Is this reasonable? This should obviously be considered a small hammer, right?
Then Qiu Yantang thought again, how much would a big hammer, a small hammer, and a pair of crutches cost?
When the hole in the kang was chiseled out, Jin San went straight in and cleaned up the dust and other things inside.
After that, even the stove looked much cleaner.
Afterwards they sealed the broken parts with earthen boards and ground them with finer soil.
"By the way, please help me check it carefully. There are a few places where the soil is burned and cracked. Help me fix it, otherwise it will smoke when the fire is lit."
The cigarette also had a fishy smell. If Qiu Yantang slept on the kang for a long time, her skin might be covered with that smell.
"Little ancestor, just wait and see, these two rooms will definitely be perfectly decorated for you."
After Qiu Yantang's room was finished, Jin San said, "This kang needs to be aired out overnight. If you burn it directly, it will crack easily."
"How about we deal with that room tomorrow? Which room are you going to sleep in today, little ancestor?"
Qiu Yantang shook his head when he heard Jin San's suggestion. "Just do it. Don't worry, there won't be any problems even if I don't sleep tonight."
"But……"
"No problem, get to work."
After Qiu Yantang finished speaking, Jin San started to work. Jin San felt that she was a bit boastful. How could someone do so many things and still stay up all night...
Looking at the mud that had not yet dried, Qiu Yantang felt that this was what home should be like.
Seeing that Qiu Yantang was very satisfied with this room, Jin San pulled others to deal with another room.
After the kangs in both rooms were repaired, Qiu Yantang breathed a sigh of relief. It was another warm winter! So cool...
Qiuhua looked at the kang, which still needed to be aired overnight, and said, "How about we both sleep on the floor..."
"You can sleep on the floor, but we can sleep separately!" Qiu Yantang was speechless when she saw Qiu Hua's regretful expression. She didn't dare to sleep with her, it was so cold!
At around eleven o'clock, Huang Xiaohuang came to find Qiu Yantang. Qiu Yantang looked at the wound on its face and couldn't help but feel a little emotional. This spiritual animal recovered so quickly from its injuries.
"Little Ancestor, I'm here. Do you have something to tell me?"
Huang Xiaohuang is just like Huang Ling, both are good yellow-skinned people. Even in this situation, he still thinks about her in his heart.
Qiu Yantang nodded and took out the Chinese Red Five-pointed Star Platycodon grandiflorum. Just as he was about to put it in his mouth to chew, he thought better of it and said, "Chew this and apply it to the injured part of your leg. You can swallow the remaining juice after chewing."
Huang Xiaohuang has tried many methods over the years, and he was very touched that Qiu Yantang could find a way to cure his leg.
"Thank you, little ancestor."
Xiao Huang had never seen this flower in the woods before. It seemed to be extremely precious. He thought that the little ancestor must have spent a lot of effort to find medicine for himself.
It couldn't help but feel doubly moved!
"Little ancestor, you are so good to me. No one has ever been so good to me except Dad. I will definitely find you more of your favorite wine in the future."
Huang Xiaohuang felt very miserable. His mother died after he was born and he was raised by his father. Because his father was the guardian deity of the family, the clan members did not want to interfere too much for fear of causing consequences.
"Hey, hey, don't cry..."
I don't know how to coax.
Moreover, Huang Xiaohuang made himself sound like an alcoholic, but he is not such a person at all.
It is said that the yellow fox loves to drink. It must be because it is such a beast, so she imagines herself to be such a person!
After Huang Xiaohuang stopped crying, Qiu Yantang quickly said, "Use this first and see how it works."
The instructions say that the effects can be felt in ten minutes, and the recovery time varies from one hour to 24 hours depending on the severity.
"Um!"
Huang Xiaohuang put the Chinese red five-pointed star gentian flower, along with some leaves and the roots underneath, in his mouth and chewed them. It tasted quite bitter, making his whole face numb, but it was the little ancestor's good intention, so he chewed it and put the chewed pieces on the injured part of his leg.
I swallowed the remaining juice in my mouth, and when I savored it, I found that it still had a hint of sweetness.
Qiu Yantang even tore off a piece of cloth to wrap it up.
"Okay, done!"
Ten minutes later, Huang Xiaohuang lifted his leg and froze in shock, "My dear! It's working!"
"Don't move, wait a little longer, you can sleep here tonight." She hugged Huang Xiaohuang to keep warm.
