Tian Cai has been very busy these days. She has been treating villagers for two consecutive days. Most of them suffer from chronic ailments such as back pain and leg pain. The patients who are not seriously ill do not go to the clinic and just wait for her to come back to see them!
Most of them can come to her house on their own, and only a few with limited mobility need home visits.
As soon as she brought Mimi out of Zhou's house, she ran into Qiu Xiaohuan who was going to the educated youth site.
"Hey? When did you come back?" Qiu Xiaohuan looked at Tian Cai in surprise, then reminded him of the letter she had just seen at the brigade headquarters. "Why didn't you pick up the letter after you came back? Your letter has been there for almost a month!"
"My letter?" Tian Cai was confused. She couldn't think of who could send her a letter.
Qiu Xiaohuan nodded and pushed Tian Cai towards the brigade headquarters without saying anything. "I just got it too. If I had known I'd run into you, I would have given it to you. Go get it now!"
Mimi glanced at Qiu Xiaohuan and didn't sense any danger, so she let her put her hand on Tian Cai.
They picked up the letter together. It was from Sichuan Province. She was delighted when she saw the address. It was Doctor Hong! Doctor Hong actually wrote back to her. Does this also mean that his situation there is not bad?
Tian Cai couldn't wait to go back and read the letter, but she found Qiu Xiaohuan still following her. She was a little surprised, "Do you have something to talk to me about?"
Qiu Xiaohuan's face flushed suspiciously, and she didn't dare meet Tian Cai's gaze. She rubbed the ground with her toes. From the corner of her eye, she saw Tian Cai's eyes frequently glance at the letter. Knowing that he was in a hurry to go back, she had to quickly say, "I, I just wanted to ask if you still have that face soap. I want to buy a few more."
Tian Cai blinked. If she remembered correctly, Qiu Xiaohuan had never bought that facial soap. However, it was not easy to ask directly, "How much do you want?"
Seeing that Tian Cai had no change of expression, Qiu Xiaohuan finally felt relieved. After the incident with Zheng Wang, they still didn't talk much, but her feelings towards Tian Cai were completely different. She blushed when she thought of her previous expression. "I'll also send some back home, ten yuan!"
"That's not enough. I've shared what I made before. If you want more, you'll have to wait for about twenty days. By then, a new batch will be ready. If you want to use it yourself, I can give you some."
Qiu Xiaohuan's eyebrows lit up, "Okay, I'll go with you to get it now, and I'll take the rest after you're done!"
So the two of them walked towards Tian Cai's house while talking, and Qiu Xiaohuan left after taking the soap.
Tian Cai added another item to her schedule. She missed the time to pick mountain products when she went to Yunnan Province this year. She had forgotten that there were no soapberries at home. It seemed that she had to find time to go into the mountains.
Tian Cai took out the envelope and flipped it over. It looked like the one she had stuffed in when she mailed it. There was no sign that the envelope had been opened. She carefully tore it open, revealing the beige letter paper inside.
It is Hong Siqing's name.
He thanked Tian Cai for his concern and told him about his own situation there, which was much better than Tian Cai had imagined. It was not heavy work for him. Although the living environment was a bit simple, the interpersonal relationships were not that complicated and the people's customs were relatively simple.
Tian Cai held the letter in silence. Although they had only been in contact for two months, she could see that Dr. Hong was a person with a relatively pure temperament. Such people did not have high requirements for the material environment and paid more attention to the spiritual aspect.
Tian Cai was glad that he was assigned to a relatively suitable place where he could continue to pursue the medical career he loved. At least he was grateful to that place for not mentally torturing him.
Tian Cai was in no hurry to reply. Since Dr. Hong was in a good situation, she could send something over, not just something for the sake of appearance like last time.
She also didn't forget about her great-grandmother's medicine pills. The medicine has been ground and will probably be ready tomorrow.
"Gurgle"
Tian Cai reached out and touched her stomach, then looked at the time. It was already two o'clock, and she hadn't eaten lunch yet. She had been so busy that she had forgotten about it.
Hmm
Want to eat meat.
Tian Cai rolled his eyes, squatted down and hugged Mimi, "Mimi, help me catch a chicken, we will eat delicious chicken stewed with potatoes later."
"Ah!"
The little one has learned how to feed Tian Cai by herself. She is getting lazier and lazier now. Just tell the little one what you want to eat, and she will guarantee that she can complete the task beautifully.
So Mimi opened the door and walked into the yard. She stretched her body, looked back at Tian Cai, meowed, and ran towards the backyard.
Tian Cai went to the kitchen to boil water for removing the hair, then opened the cellar to get a few potatoes, peeled them and cut them into pieces.
As soon as the water boiled, the little guy came back with a colorful pheasant in his mouth.
“That’s awesome!”
Tian Cai was not embarrassed at all. He took the pheasant, scooped up some boiling water and poured it over, then squatted down to pluck the feathers.
Mimi is very picky about food now. She never eats pheasants when she goes hunting because she thinks there is not much meat and a lot of hair. She always brings them back to Tian Cai and asks her to prepare them before eating them.
The pheasant was quickly processed. Tian Cai chopped it into pieces, added soy sauce and sugar, stir-fried it in a pan, and then poured in water. He then poured in the potato pieces and stewed them together, adding some dew.
Dew not only doubles the efficacy of medicine, but also can enhance the flavor of ingredients when added to cooking. She has poor cooking skills and can only make up for it with this.
Tian Cai scooped up some more dew and poured it into Mimi's food bowl. The little guy immediately ran over to drink it.
When she went to Yunnan Province, the team distributed food. Zhang Defa kept enough food for her according to Tian Cai's habit in previous years. The remaining food was converted into money and he asked the Wang brothers to deliver it to her the day after she came back.
