After lunch on the second day of the New Year, Liu Yuhan packed some food for Huo Dong in the insulated lunch box in the space, said goodbye to his family and went to the county town.
The streets of the county town were deserted. From a distance, she could see a man and a horse standing in front of the pharmacy. That tall figure, that handsome face, was smiling at her. Liu Yuhan opened the door, led him into the pharmacy, and handed him the lunch box.
"Thank you, Xiaohan. How did you know I didn't eat?"
"Of course I guessed it. It would take time for you to come here from the capital."
"Eat it while it's hot."
"Okay." Huo Dong didn't ask where the iron lunch box, which didn't exist in that era, came from. He quietly finished his meal. Liu Yuhan was relieved to see that he didn't ask any more questions.
The black ginseng and other precious medicinal herbs in the space have been picked and Liu Yuhan has made them into health pills or life-saving pills.
"This bottle is for life-saving pills, to be taken in emergencies. This bottle is for health-preserving pills, and a small amount taken regularly is good for your health."
"These are for you. I gave them to Grandpa and Grandma years ago."
"There are other pills and powders in the package. They're all for you. They're all labeled with their names and uses. I also got a portion for my brother. I made these pills myself."
"good."
"And this is an iron armor that can protect your chest. I wonder if you're used to wearing it."
"Habit."
"Also, I'm not very good at making clothes, so I made you a sachet. Do you want it?"
"Yes."
Liu Yuhan took out a sachet from her cloth bag feeling a little embarrassed. The sachet was green and had bamboo leaves sewn on it, and the embroidery was very ordinary.
"I didn't sew it well, so I put some refreshing herbs in it."
Huo Dong took a few steps closer and held her in his arms.
"You sew very well. I like everything you give me."
"I really hope the war will end completely so I can be with you and watch over you all the time."
"You must be extra careful in the barracks, okay? Don't make me worry."
"Yeah. You have to take care of yourself too."
"I want to kiss you..."
Huo Dong lowered his head and gently kissed Liu Yuhan. Liu Yuhan put her arm around his neck in response, and the two kissed passionately. Huo Dong felt a change in his body. He awkwardly pulled away from Liu Yuhan, and saw her lips were slightly swollen, her eyes were misty, and she looked confused. He was really going crazy. He bent his head and kissed her again, kissing her face, earlobe to neck...
"Yan Ping, you..."
Liu Yuhan was held tightly by him, and could clearly feel the changes in his body. She was a soul from the 21st century, and she had never eaten pork before, so he was completely overwhelmed with emotion.
Huo Dong came back to his senses when he heard her voice.
"Sorry, Xiaohan, it's my fault." Huo Dong suppressed his voice, his eyes red.
"I, I'm going to the back hall." Huo Dong hunched his body and walked away quickly.
Liu Yuhan felt complicated when she saw his forbearing and embarrassed look. She was not an old-fashioned person. They were already engaged, so she could accept normal hand holding and kissing. However, when the time came, she should wait until they got married and their bodies grew bigger and more mature.
Huo Dong went to the kitchen in the back hall and washed his face with cold water. He felt a little nervous, thinking that he had really scared the little girl just now. He blamed his body for not being strong enough and also blamed it for being too strong.
"Don't stand there in the wind, it's so cold." Liu Yuhan stood under the eaves and looked at him. Alas, this man has been standing there all the time. He is still a young man, and he must feel very embarrassed in front of the woman he likes.
"Um."
"Come here, I have made some hot tea on the charcoal stove. Come and have some tea."
Liu Yuhan naturally poured him tea and found topics to chat with him, and soon the two of them became natural again.
"Xiao Han, do you have to go traveling as a doctor after the New Year?"
"yes."
"Who are you going with?"
"Me, Master, and Banxia."
"Can you let Huo Er follow?"
Liu Yuhan couldn't bear to see him pleading. Then let Huo Er go with him. There is a difference between men and women, and it will be more convenient for him to accompany his master and take care of him.
"good."
"Yan Ping, I'm fine, you don't have to worry, just take care of yourself." Liu Yuhan grabbed his hand and played with the thick calluses on his hand.
"The next time we meet, we'll get married..."
"Okay." Huo Dong held her hand, his eyes full of joy.
………………………………
After the Lantern Festival, Huo Dong and Liu Yang went out.
The younger ones also went to school. Yang Zhi and Liu Lu had been attending the provincial school since last fall. Yang Rong and Liu Guang were attending the county school in the county town. Xiao Si, who would be eight the following year, was also attending the village school. Whenever Xiao Si had free time, he would study the most basic pharmacology with Liu Yun.
The county pharmacy hired two doctors at the beginning of the year, and Father Liu would check them out before going out to see if they were suitable. Liu Yunqingdai followed Guangbai and others to learn how to prepare and boil herbs.
The Jishitang in the prefectural capital was handed over to the elder brother to manage. This was already Liu Yuhan's property, and the Huo family no longer intervened.
Wait until the spring plowing is completed.
Liu Yuhan, his master Banxia, and Huo Er set off.
With a large carriage and two horses, they followed the route they had taken to escape the famine, heading north, stopping here and there. When they came across an inhabited village, they would hang up a sign advertising their medical services.
The central and southern parts are still okay, but the further north you go, the more desolate and poor it becomes. It seems that the famine of those years will not be healed for a while.
They would stay in each village for several days.
Huo Er would go to the village chief. People in the village who had no money to treat their illnesses would hardly believe the free medical treatment offered by the doctor. Once the first person tried it, there would be a second and a third...
There are still many poor people with good intentions. If you encounter a vicious person who is deliberately looking for trouble, then it depends on whether Huo Er and Banxia's fists can stop them.
