Chapter 175 This chapter is worth a thousand gold. If you don't subscribe, it will be your loss.
In the afternoon, Deng Shirong cooked three large pots of rare porridge.
The basins were larger than washbasins, and these three large basins of porridge were enough for more than twenty people to eat.
The method of making this porridge is relatively simple. First, clean it and boil it with water, then take out the meat the size of peanuts. Then, stir-fry the meat with oil, add ginger and wine to remove the fishy smell and enhance the flavor, then add water and boil it, and then put the washed rice in.
If you want to eat thick porridge, the ratio of water to rice should be just right, and you should stir it from time to time during the cooking process.
If you want to eat thin porridge, you should use more water and less rice. Cook the rice until it is cooked through, then remove from the heat and sprinkle with chopped green onions.
Deng Shirong cooked thin porridge. Most people in Shuangwang Territory like to eat thin porridge and do not like the thick porridge.
Before this, there were more than a dozen friends in the village who helped to collect porridge. Now, all of them were called over by Deng Yunhua’s brother. They were eating the delicious porridge one by one, feeling so satisfied.
When there was something delicious, Zhang Xiuping naturally did not forget to call her younger sister Ou Guohua to come and eat together.
"This porridge is fresh and sweet. It's the most delicious porridge I've ever tasted. Compared with Jiugong's cooking skills, the porridge we cooked before was simply a waste of ingredients." Ou Guohua sighed while eating.
Hearing this, Zhang Xiuping couldn't help but recall that when she was at her mother's house, she and her three sisters had also gone to the river to catch porridge. However, their cooking skills were mediocre, and they didn't dare to use the lard at home casually, so the porridge they cooked was naturally not very delicious.
"The taste is indeed incomparable, but even if it's not delicious, we didn't waste any of it and ate it all."
"Yes, we ate it all. We didn't dare to waste anything at that time. I remember my sister ate the most."
"Well, I remember she ate three big bowls."
While eating porridge, the two recalled the things that happened at her mother's house.
Zhang Xiuping said: "Counting the days, your sister will be getting married soon!"
Ou Guohua nodded and smiled: "I've been calculating. There's less than a month left. By then, the three of us can get together every day again!"
Zhang Xiuping smiled, remembering what her father-in-law had said to her at noon, and told her sisters in advance: "Your A Yuan has already learned the technique of making large vats. My father-in-law said that when Brother Tai finishes making these kiln products, he will let him withdraw from the vat factory, and then let your A Yuan officially take over as the master of large vats. Good days are coming for you!"
Ou Guohua was overjoyed, but still asked with concern: "Sister Ping, why did my brother-in-law quit the tile factory? He doesn't want to make large tiles anymore?"
Zhang Xiuping smiled and said, "He is no longer making big jars. My father-in-law has arranged other things for him, but they are all for next year. I asked him to withdraw from the jar and tile factory early. On the one hand, it is to make room for your Yuan, and on the other hand, I want him to come back and accompany me."
Ou Guohua felt relieved after hearing this and said jokingly, “It seems that my hard days are really over!”
Zhang Xiuping rolled her eyes at her and said, "Just say this to me, don't spread it around."
Ou Guohua smiled and said, "I know. I still have some sense of propriety."
The two chatted as they ate, and soon the bowl of porridge was finished.
Zhang Xiuping said, "I am full. If you can eat more, eat more."
Ou Guohua nodded and said, "Well, this is such delicious porridge, I have to eat one more bowl."
…
"Huff!"
In the evening, when the family had just finished taking a bath and were sitting under the longan tree at the door chatting, Deng Yunheng couldn't help but sneeze.
When the first sneeze occurred, it did not attract Deng Shirong's attention. After all, sneezing occasionally is a normal phenomenon.
But not long after, Deng Yunheng sneezed again. Deng Shirong then reached out and touched his forehead, and asked, "Xiaoheng, did you catch a cold when you went swimming in the river today? Do you feel uncomfortable now?"
Deng Yunheng said: "I just feel a little bit of pain in the head."
Deng Shirong said, "You must have caught a cold. I'll go make some brown sugar ginger water for you. Xiaosong and Xiaohua will drink a big bowl of it later."
"Dad, I'm going to wash the ginger."
Then Deng Yunzhen turned around and ordered, "Azhu, go light the fire."
So, the father and his two daughters got busy, and in less than half an hour, they had boiled several bowls of brown sugar ginger water.
After the three little guys drank a big bowl of soup, Deng Shirong told his third son, "Xiaosong, go to Ajingda (the barefoot doctor in the village) and buy a thermometer and some antipyretic medicine."
Deng Yunsong responded, took the money from his father, and then walked towards the brigade with a flashlight.
Seeing this, Deng Yunheng asked worriedly, "Dad, if I catch a cold, I don't need a butt shot, right?"
Hearing his brother mention this, Deng Yunhua couldn't help but shudder.
It's strange to say, he was the most mischievous one among his brothers, and was often punished by his father when he was a child, but he was not afraid of how his father punished him. The only thing he was afraid of was getting sick and having to get a shot in the buttocks.
In fact, it's not just the two of them. Everyone present here has had a shot in the butt. That kind of "pain" makes them afraid.
In later generations, if medicine doesn't work when you are sick, you usually get an IV drip. Except for people with a high fever, few people get injections in the buttocks. Naturally, you can't experience that feeling, because an IV drip and an injection in the buttocks are completely different concepts.
Deng Shirong knew that his children were afraid of injections, so he said, "No need for injections. Just drink more water now, and you may be fine tomorrow. If you really catch a cold, I'll go to Shuangwang's herbal medicine store to get you some Chinese medicine, and you'll be fine after drinking it a few times."
Deng Yunheng couldn't help but feel a headache when he heard about Chinese medicine. That stuff was so bitter that it made his scalp numb and it was so unpalatable that he couldn't help but say, "Dad, can you please not drink Chinese medicine? If you have a cold, just ask the doctor to give you some pills!"
Deng Shirong smiled and said, "Don't worry, this is not the bitter Chinese medicine you drank before. This is a good recipe for treating colds that I got from someone else. It is not very bitter, just like drinking herbal tea."
Deng Yunheng was finally relieved after hearing this. They often drink herbal tea. If the traditional Chinese medicine for treating colds also tastes like this, it would be so wonderful.
Soon, Deng Yunsong bought the thermometer and antipyretic drugs.
Deng Shirong took the things and said, "Xiao Heng, come and sleep with me tonight, or you might get a fever in the middle of the night and not know it."
Deng Yunheng responded, and in order to get through it, he picked up the remaining bowl of brown sugar ginger water and drank it in one breath.
He drank two large bowls of brown sugar ginger water in a short period of time, which made his stomach full.
…
The next day.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
After breakfast, Deng Shirong rode his bicycle to Shuangwang’s herbal medicine store to buy medicine.
Although my youngest son drank two large bowls of brown sugar ginger water last night, it might have been useful if he drank it earlier. If he waited until cold symptoms appeared to drink it, it would not have any therapeutic effect. So in the middle of the night, my youngest son inevitably had a fever.
Arriving at a medicine store in Shuangwang, Deng Shirong directly bought 30 sets of Chinese medicine. Anyway, his system had a lot of space, and he would use these Chinese medicines for treating colds frequently in the future, so it would be a good idea to buy some more and keep them as backup.
After returning home, Deng Shirong took out a small clay pot, put one of the medicines in it and soaked it for a few minutes, then lit a fire and cooked it.
Wait for the medicine to boil and then cook it for more than ten minutes and it will be done.
This good recipe for treating colds was obtained by Deng Shirong from a good friend in later generations. It only contains three simple Chinese medicines: silkworm feces, bamboo shavings and tangerine peel, with a dosage of 30 grams each. Even with the prices in later generations, such a prescription of Chinese medicine only cost three or two yuan, which can be said to be extremely cheap.
But its effect, after being verified by the author, is really amazing.
[Here, the author would like to strongly recommend this priceless recipe to all the readers. Please write it down. When you need it, I don’t know how much money it will save you. So the author will add a few words here and charge you a cent or two more. I believe you won’t mind.
In fact, these words could be said by Deng Shirong himself, but in order to make this prescription more convincing, the author intends to speak from his own experience.
The author obtained this prescription in 2018. Before obtaining this prescription, the author's two daughters were frequent visitors to the hospital. They had to go to the hospital several times a month, and had blood tests frequently, which cost hundreds of dollars each time.
Then, I never stopped taking antibiotics, and the house was filled with all kinds of Western medicines.
During those years, I don’t know how much money I spent, and I don’t know how much my children suffered.
Then, after getting this prescription, each cold can be cured by spending only two or three dollars, and at least nine out of ten colds can be cured.
Not only the author's two daughters, but also her nieces and the children of relatives and friends have basically used this prescription, and the feedback they received was that the results were good.
Of course, this medicine is not a panacea and there are times when it is ineffective. But for the author's two daughters, seven or eight out of ten colds were cured by taking this medicine.
Moreover, since using this prescription, the author's two daughters' immunity has also become stronger, after all, they are away from antibiotics! The number of colds has also become less and less. During the Spring Festival last year when everyone turned positive, the author and his wife were very miserable, but the two daughters had a fever. The eldest daughter had a fever, but it was only about 38 degrees, and it recovered automatically overnight. The younger daughter was also fine.
After using this prescription for five years, the author saved at least several thousand or even tens of thousands of dollars.
It is no exaggeration to say that this prescription is worth a fortune.
The most important thing is that this prescription is simple and safe. There is no need to say much about tangerine peel, it is a snack. Bamboo shavings are what are scraped out from bamboo. They are often used to make herbal tea in rural areas of Guangdong and Guangxi. Silkworm feces are also safe and have no side effects.
Therefore, even if this prescription cannot cure the disease, there will be no adverse consequences after drinking it. This is why the author dares to recommend it to everyone.
Also, this is Chinese medicine after all, and the effect is not as fast as Western medicine. Generally speaking, it takes two to three days to take effect, and the fastest one is one day. During this period, if the child's fever exceeds 38.5 degrees, he should take antipyretics. If it does not exceed this, ignore it.
The time interval for taking the medicine is not like four or six hours like Western medicine. As long as the child is willing to drink, you can feed him more times and at any time.
If the child is still young, the dosage can be changed from 30 grams to 20 grams as appropriate.
That’s all for now. If any readers have any questions, please post them in this chapter. The author will try to reply when he sees them. If any readers have tried it and found it effective, I hope they will say so in this chapter so that the author can be happy too.]
After the medicine was cooked and a bowl was poured out to cool, Deng Shirong called out, "Xiao Heng, come here and drink this medicine!"
Deng Yunheng came over, picked up the bowl and smelled it. He found that there was no bad smell. He took a small sip and it turned out to be just as his father said. The taste was almost the same as herbal tea without sugar. He was completely relieved now and drank the medicine in one gulp.
After he finished drinking, Deng Shirong reminded him: "Remember to drink more water."
Deng Yunheng nodded and said, "I understand, Dad!"
