Xu Jianguo added space well water into the casserole, and then put the medicinal materials in order according to the method he remembered. He boiled the medicinal liquid over high heat, and then turned to low heat to simmer slowly.
Looking at the various medicinal herbs rolling up and down in the casserole, Xu Jianguo covered the pot and began to prepare lunch for himself.
Since Funiu was not around, Xu Jianguo simply cooked some instant noodles for himself, added two eggs, some seaweed and shrimp, added a few drops of sesame oil, mixed well, and then started eating.
After lunch, Xu Jianguo looked at the situation in the casserole and estimated in his mind that it would take about two more hours to simmer.
He went to the supermarket and bought two bags of salt and four one-pound bottles of Erguotou liquor, then went to the warehouse and found more than a hundred duck eggs and goose eggs that he had collected some time ago. He also found two small jars and prepared to pickle the salted eggs before the weather got cold.
Find an enamel basin, put the duck eggs and goose eggs in the basin, then pour in well water, wash all the eggs and take them out, then wipe the water off the eggs with a clean towel and place them in a clean basin to dry for later use.
Then Xu Jianguo took a clean pot, poured well water into the pot, added star anise and salt into the water, boiled it over high heat until the salt melted, and poured in the white wine after it cooled.
Place the dried duck eggs and goose eggs in the jar respectively, then pour in the cooled salt water, and finally find two plates to cover the jar mouth, and wait for one and a half months.
After the salted eggs are pickled, you can just cook them when you want to eat them.
After placing the jar of pickled eggs at the foot of the wall, Xu Jianguo came to the casserole to check the progress of the ointment.
When he lifted the lid, a strong medicinal aroma wafted into his nose. Xu Jianguo looked at the herbs in the casserole that had been cooked until soft, nodded with satisfaction, took the casserole off the fire, took a fine-mesh colander from the kitchen and placed it on a clean large porcelain bowl, then poured out all the soup and Chinese medicine residue in the casserole.
Wash the casserole with well water, remove the colander, pour the medicine liquid in the bowl back into the casserole and continue to boil until the medicine liquid becomes thick and paste-like.
I found a can of fruit from the supermarket, poured out the pulp, washed it with well water and dried it, then put the prepared ointment into the can.
After washing the casserole, I took out the herbs from another paper bag and repeated the previous steps. Finally, all the herbs were boiled into ointment before five o'clock in the afternoon.
Looking at the pitch-black ointment in the can, Xu Jianguo felt a sense of accomplishment.
I went to the supermarket and found a box of Chuanbei loquat oral liquid in the drawer of the cashier counter. I cleaned the sticker on the outside of the small glass bottle, removed the aluminum bottle mouth, opened the rubber cap inside, poured out the liquid medicine, cleaned it, and after drying it, filled a small bottle with well water.
Looking at the time, it was already half past five. Xu Jianguo put all his things into the backpack, then stepped onto the Yuheng constellation. He turned on the space vision function and observed the situation in the deserted courtyard of Wuyi Lane. After confirming that there was no one there, he thought about it, and with a flash of his eyes, he appeared in the courtyard.
It was exactly time to get off work, and he might meet other people if he went out through the main gate. Xu Jianguo came to the back wall of the yard and jumped over the two-meter-high wall with a light leap.
When Xu Jianguo returned to the Red Star Machinery Factory, he happened to meet Gao Wangshan who was riding a bicycle out.
"Huh? Uncle Gao, where are you going?" Xu Jianguo asked.
"Jianguo, are you back? Director Lin from the County Public Security Bureau just called me and said that Deputy County Chief Gu's son Gu Mingqi is missing. He is the guy you taught a lesson to in the cafeteria last time. They asked me to come over to find out what happened. I guess they will look for you too, so you should be mentally prepared." Gao Wangshan said.
"Okay, I understand, Uncle Gao." Xu Jianguo said.
"You should go in quickly. I just saw Xiaowen taking Funiu to the cafeteria. I left because they are rushing over there!"
"Okay, Uncle Gao, please slow down!"
Gao Wangshan waved his hand and rode away on his bike.
Xu Jianguo looked at Gao Wangshan's back and thought for a moment, "I wonder if Uncle Gao will get into trouble. Should I ask that guy Gu Mingqi to write a letter to his father?"
Xu Jianguo decided to wait and see, and if it was really troublesome, he would ask Gu Mingqi to write a letter.
I walked towards the cafeteria with a bamboo basket on my back. As soon as I reached the door, I saw Wen Sitian leading Funiu out of the cafeteria.
The little girl was sharp-eyed and saw Xu Jianguo at once. She grabbed Wen Sitian's hand and ran over.
Xu Jianguo looked at Wen Sitian's small body being dragged forward by the three-year-old girl, and a smile appeared on his face. He thought that the water from the space well that this girl drank was not in vain, her body was as strong as steel!
"Haha, you're back?" Funiu hugged Xu Jianguo's thighs, looked up at him and said.
"Yeah, did you listen to sweet sister today and not act naughty?"
"No, I'm very obedient. If you don't believe me, ask Sweet Sister!"
Xu Jianguo looked up at Wen Sitian and said, "Thank you for your hard work!"
"It's not hard. Funiu is very obedient. Have you eaten?" Wen Sitian asked with a slightly red face.
"Not yet. I ran into Uncle Gao when I came back just now. He said he saw you and Fu Niu coming to the cafeteria, so I came to look for you guys!"
"I brought you some food, go eat it in the cafeteria!" Wen Sitian handed the lunch box to Xu Jianguo and said with her head down.
"Okay, I'm hungry!" Xu Jianguo took the lunch box and said with a smile.
In this way, the three of them returned to the cafeteria. Xu Jianguo opened the lid of the lunch box, which contained a large steamed bun made of white flour and corn flour. The dish was stewed potatoes and eggplant, and there were two spoons, one large and one small, on top.
