Chapter 122 Is that Zhang Jingwan and the pretty boy?
Zhao Xiaobao looked at Lin Qingqing with admiration. Such a difficult problem was almost completely solved by Comrade Lin in just one hour.
"Let's go." Lin Qingqing waved her hand and led the five people up the mountain.
I took advantage of the ten minutes of walking to talk about the characteristics of the stone grass.
Jiang Haixia followed Lin Qingqing half a step to the right, and Zhao Lihai walked beside her.
As they walked, Lin Qingqing explained the medicinal properties of the stonewort to Yang Guoli and the other four, and then took out the stonewort he had just dug from his pocket to show them.
"It's easy to recognize. It looks like a stick, and its color is the same green as spinach. If it's lighter than that, it's not fully grown and has no medicinal effect."
"When digging up the sedge, you have to dig it with the roots. This way, the medicinal juice near the roots will be sealed inside, and the stems underneath can also be used. After washing and drying them, cut off the roots."
"The roots and stems have opposite medicinal effects. The roots are poisonous and must be thrown away. You must remember this, otherwise this will not be an herbal remedy, but a poison..."
She talked a lot without stopping, and finally said:
"You also need to teach the remaining thirty or so people. You can't make any mistakes here, especially the problem of not using the roots of the stonewort. You must explain it clearly to them, or let the girls do this step because they are more careful."
The five of them nodded frequently, half lowering their heads to look at the herbs in Lin Qingqing's hand, wanting to engrave these words and the appearance of the herbs in their hearts.
When he looked up at Lin Qingqing again, his eyes were full of respect.
Seeing that Lin Qingqing was busy, Jiang Haixia took half a step unnoticeably and moved closer to Zhao Lihai.
She looked ahead and asked softly, "Are you hiding something from her?"
This "she" naturally refers to Lin Qingqing.
Zhao Lihai scratched his big ears and chuckled, "It was me who suggested that the state-owned drugstore first grant the commune 300 kilograms of coarse grains. I was afraid Comrade Lin would criticize me, so I didn't tell her."
He couldn't bear to see the children in the village starving like that. As a friendly soldier, he wanted to do something.
Jiang Haixia didn't even turn her head, a hint of teasing appeared in her calm eyes. She knew it was like this... As expected, there was something hidden. This Zhao Lihai was too easy to trick.
After a while, they arrived at the foot of the mountain and walked up the mountain. Soon they saw some mature and grown stonewort. Lin Qingqing dug two plants to demonstrate to the five people and then let them try it themselves.
This step is generally not wrong, the difficulty lies in distinguishing between cooked and uncooked.
All five of them were young guys, so it wasn't difficult to find them. Before Lin Qingqing even called out to them, they started searching on the mountain.
When the bags in the hands of the five people were almost full, another thirty people came.
"Find your team leader and ask him to teach you how to do it."
In an instant, thirty people began to run around in the woods.
…
Military compound
The sun was setting in the east, and it was eleven o'clock in the morning.
Sister Xiuhong went up the mountain twice in the morning. She washed the herbs, hung them on the bluestone slabs, carried her backpack, and went out with Xiaomei.
Today, Xiaomei was riding with her sister-in-law Xiuhong on the back seat. She was heavier than Lin Qingqing, but she didn't feel any difficulty riding.
The two men came out of the yard and after riding for only a few dozen meters, several sisters-in-law greeted them.
"Xiuhong, you are going out. How can you carry such a small bag with you to carry your precious things?"
"Hey~ Xiuhong, your Zhang Liang is getting a good allowance now. He's carrying such a big bag. Is he going to take the supply and marketing cooperative home?"
My sister-in-law was flirting with Xiuhong, and Xiuhong was also retorting: "Didn't you just buy that dress that Xiaohua is wearing?", "You just went to the town yesterday, and you still have the nerve to associate with me~"
When they arrived at the military compound under the pine tree, only two or three sisters-in-law were left who had not gone home to cook. When they saw Xiuhong, they greeted her.
Xiaomei rode her bike without even breathing hard. She smiled and said, "Sister-in-law Xiuhong, you are so popular."
Xiuhong hugged Xiaomei's waist and said, "You've been in the army for a long time, so you know a lot of people."
"Hey, sister-in-law...sister-in-law, look, isn't that Zhang Jingwan and the pretty boy?"
Xiaomei excitedly shrugged and shook her waist, motioning Xiuhong to look quickly.
Xiuhong turned her head from behind Xiaomei and saw Zhang Jingwan and Deputy Commander Zhao getting off the car at the military gate.
Zhang Jingwan wore a red khaki short-sleeved shirt, beige trousers, and black leather shoes. Her hair was combed back with a yellow bow hairpin, and a small black leather bag was slung over her shoulder. She looked very fashionable.
Deputy Headman Li Zhao's face was gloomy, without a trace of joy about the wedding.
Xiaomei stopped her bike at the gate of the military unit, and Sister Xiuhong took out her military family ID.
The two of them set off again without even glancing at Zhang Jingwan.
As soon as the bicycle started turning, Xiuhong curled her lips. It doesn't matter if she is dressed like this, she is still not as pretty as Qingqing.
Xiaomei said with a smile: "Thank goodness you are here, sister-in-law. I can't get out by myself."
Xiaomei stayed in the army on the pretext of visiting relatives. She couldn't go out alone, and she couldn't use Lin Qingqing's military dependent ID card. The card was only valid if the dependent himself held it.
Xiuhong put her arm around Xiaomei's waist again: "What's the big deal? If you want to go out for a walk, tell me and I'll go with you. It's boring to stay in this family compound for too long."
After riding a little further and making sure Zhang Jingwan and the others couldn't hear her anymore, Xiaomei spoke up: "That must be Zhang Jingwan coming back. Look at those three boxes. She must have brought a lot of stuff."
Xiuhong had just seen it, and she rolled her eyes: "I don't know who they're doing this for. She lives on the top floor of a tube-shaped building now, and she doesn't feel tired carrying so many boxes."
Xiaomei smiled and started chatting about other people's gossip, and moved on from this topic.
