Li Mingqing helped to make dumplings.
The two of them worked quickly and finished dinner in half an hour.
Just as we were eating, we saw the village chief running over in a hurry.
"Mingqing, come with me to the cowshed."
"What's wrong?"
"The cowshed collapsed and the occupants had their legs broken by falling wooden sticks."
He stood up suddenly.
This is the person Ding Shao asked me to take care of. It would be terrible if something really happened to him.
Trotting all the way to the cowshed.
There were quite a few people gathered around, and a cow was tied intact to a poplar tree nearby.
"Luckily the cow wasn't hurt."
"It's a good thing the man went over and untied the rope that tied the cow, otherwise the stick would have hit the cow."
"That's unacceptable. Even if we kill the man, the cow can't be hurt."
The people around were whispering to each other, all of them were glad that the cow was okay, and didn't care about the people's life or death at all.
The one pushing the back was Uncle Bi.
Several people worked together to remove the wooden stick that was dragging him, and Li Mingqing hurried forward with a flashlight to provide treatment.
Aunt Miao was wiping her tears anxiously.
She should have been the one who was hit, but it was Uncle Bi who pushed her aside.
After hearing the noise, she hurried to untie the rope for the girl, but the wooden stick fell down as soon as she finished untying the rope.
Nothing can happen to the cow, otherwise the four of them will be in trouble.
Cows are an important asset to the village.
They are much more important than humans. Their job here is to take good care of the cows.
Mr. Kong asked anxiously, "How is it? Are there any broken bones?"
"No bones were broken, but the stick hit my knee right in the process. I can't walk for half a month."
The village chief and the team leader breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, nothing happened, otherwise I would have to go to the town to report.
The village chief said, "It's getting dark soon, everyone should go away."
The people around then left one by one.
Li Mingqing said, "Uncle Captain, Uncle Village Chief, you should go back first. Acupuncture will take at least half an hour."
"Then we'll go first. Thank you for your hard work."
"fine."
After the village chief and the team leader left, Li Mingqing said, "I'll help you up and lie down over there."
A thin blanket was spread on the ground, and Uncle Bi was lying on it.
"Comrade, are you sure you didn't break any bones?"
"It's a little bit injured, but not serious. Luckily it was an old stick. If it was a fresh stick cut from the mountain, it would have to be put in a plaster."
Li Mingqing shone the flashlight, took out a silver needle and skillfully inserted it into his knee.
The cowshed collapsed, so there was no place to sleep at night and we had to sleep outdoors.
Old Kong and Uncle Song went to clean up the mess, moved the wooden sticks aside one by one, took out the bedding from underneath, and made a bed on the floor to sleep.
"I have a large piece of waterproof oil paper at home. I'll bring it to you later."
"No, don't bother, this is fine."
Although it is autumn, there are many insects at night and dew in the morning, so it is indeed not appropriate to sleep outdoors.
"That's no trouble, it's not far."
Aunt Miao took the small iron pot out of the rubble. Fortunately, it was not flattened, otherwise she would not even have a tool to cook with.
"That pot of wild vegetable soup was wasted. Fortunately, there are still some wild vegetables left."
"I'll go find two stones and build a stove to make a new one."
Twenty minutes later, Li Mingqing removed the needle and went home to get oil paper.
"Don't come, young comrade. I'm already grateful enough to you."
"Please don't feel burdened. My children will still rely on you to teach them in the future."
He said that and left.
Sun Jiaxue was holding a small kerosene lamp in her hand. As soon as she opened the door, she saw Li Mingqing coming back.
"Wife, the cowshed collapsed and they have no place to sleep. I'm sending the oil paper from home over there."
"Okay, there's still some dumpling soup and dumplings left. You can take them over."
There were only seven or eight dumplings left, but the dumpling soup was better than the wild vegetable soup they had eaten.
Li Mingqing carried a basin and Sun Jiaxue carried oil paper and went to the cowshed.
When the two arrived, Uncle Song had just built a stove with a few stones.
"This is dumplings and dumpling soup. Put the wild vegetables in the dumpling soup and cook them."
Aunt Miao immediately took the basin.
I was so moved looking at the dumplings.
They haven't eaten dumplings since they were sent here.
After putting down the oil paper, the two of them left.
Kong Lao looked at the moon, which stretched Li Mingqing's shadow so long that he said, "There are still many good people."
Two people used wooden sticks to prop up the oil paper, which could provide shelter from the wind and rain.
Uncle Bi's knee, which was hit, no longer hurt as much, only felt a slight pain.
"The Li family kid's medical skills are indeed impeccable. My leg is much better now. I estimate it will be fully healed in less than half a month."
Aunt Miao cooked the wild vegetables in the dumpling soup.
This was the best meal they had here.
This dumpling soup is even thicker than the corn grits they make themselves.
the next day.
The village chief brought a few strong men to build the cowshed early.
Because they were still busy with the autumn harvest, a few people built a frame for the shed, fixed the roof, and left.
The rest needs to be improved by Uncle Bi and others themselves.
But it was already a good thing that they had built the frame. They were old and injured, and they really didn't have the ability to carry such heavy wooden sticks.
When Li Mingqing got home from get off work in the evening, the cowshed had been rebuilt.
He came to give Uncle Bi acupuncture.
"Comrade Li, this is the oil paper you brought yesterday. It has been washed clean."
"Okay, I'll take it back later."
