Next, Feng Qingxue was completely immersed in busyness and felt that there was not enough time all the time.

While taking care of the housework, she also took care of Lu Jiang while carefully studying medical books and the medical records of Doctors Wu Zheng and Guo, identifying acupuncture points, medicinal materials, and memorizing various prescriptions.

There is an extreme shortage of medicines in the countryside. Wu Zheng and Wang Zhengguo have both answered Feng Qingxue's questions. Because the country has extremely strict regulations in this regard, medicines are distributed every year according to a proportion. The various worker hospitals in the city can get a portion of them, but the communes and production brigades never get their turn. So, Feng Qingxue traveled through mountains and rivers every day to collect medicine, which was considered to be a practical application of what she had learned.

Nature is a natural treasure house and the greatest gift to mankind.

In that age of hunger and poverty, it was a granary and a pharmacy.

Dandelions, wild chrysanthemums, white amaranth, motherwort, nettles, nightshade, selfheal, plantain, wild mint, bidens pilosa, Xanthium sibiricum, purslane, wormwood, communis, wild shepherd's purse, honeysuckle, mugwort... they are everywhere in the mountains and plains, and each one is a common wild vegetable and Chinese herbal medicine in life.

Wax gourd peel, wax gourd seeds, loofah sponge, loofah vine, ground beetle, cicada shells, mulberry branches and mulberry leaves... everything can be used as medicine.

Feng Qingxue picked and collected all the plants and non-plants listed as Chinese medicinal materials, and processed and collected them according to the methods in the book.

Although it is not needed now, who can guarantee that it will not be needed in the future?

It’s never wrong to prepare in advance, and never fight a battle without preparation!

To this end, she and Guancheng Lu Tianjun went to nearby scrap yards of all sizes and made several trips. They bought a lot of books and brought back several carts of old furniture and old wood. They first asked a carpenter to make a few medicine cabinets and placed them in the west wing. They then pieced together the rest to make two beds, one of which was placed in the east wing and the other was sent to the cowshed for Lu's father to use.

The wood was of different quality. The good ones were used to make medicine cabinets, while the ordinary ones were used to make beds.

At the same time, Feng Qingxue taught Guan Cheng, Lu Tianjun, Jiang He, Erya and other older children to identify common and easily recognizable herbs. After finishing their farm work, they would dig wild vegetables and cut grass for pigs. When they came across herbs they recognized, they would pick them and give them to themselves to prepare. She also taught them some simple hygiene knowledge, telling them that prevention is more important than treatment after illness, and then persuaded Wang Zhengguo to record work points according to their contributions.

Perhaps because of the experience of Guan Yu being seriously ill and almost dying, Guan Cheng asked to learn medical skills from Feng Qingxue.

"Acheng, I haven't even entered the door yet. At present, I can only recognize herbs and acupuncture points by rote, memorize a few prescriptions or recite Compendium of Materia Medica and Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic. How can I teach you? You should study hard in school and find a chance to formally become my apprentice in the future." Feng Qingxue believed that he had only learned the basics, so he didn't dare to accept a disciple casually.

Guan Cheng insisted: "I will learn the simple basics from my aunt first."

This is an advanced medical skill that I will have the opportunity to study in depth in the future.

He carefully discovered the benefits of studying medicine, for the sake of his own and his brother's future.

Although it is the beginning of autumn, the crops in the fields still need farmers to work hard every moment, and both men and women have to work.

Originally, many people had complaints about Feng Qingxue's behavior of wandering in the mountains instead of working. However, when they learned that Feng Qingxue was collecting herbs to alleviate the predicament of his production team's lack of medical care and medicine, they immediately gave them great support. Even if there were two or three jealous people who said unpleasant things, they were immediately suppressed by everyone.
