Chapter 108 Don’t beat around the bush when talking to a fool
Qiao Mo seldom came to the village. Except for a few times when she went to Wu's house to exchange eggs and visited several leaders of the brigade during the first month of the lunar year, she hardly ever moved around the village. Therefore, she was not familiar with the elderly and children in the village who did not work. As she walked past them, she smiled and nodded to them.
The infirmary was in the middle of the village and was managed by a middle-aged foot doctor named Wu. He seemed to be a relative of Wu Daming. Qiao Mo had met him once at Wu Daming's house during the Chinese New Year. He heard that he had been in the army before and learned some basic medical skills. After returning and receiving training as a foot doctor, he had been in charge of the brigade's infirmary ever since.
At this time, the door of the infirmary was open and Dr. Wu was dozing off in a chair.
Qiao Mo knocked on the door.
Doctor Wu opened his sleepy eyes and asked, "Qiao Zhiqing, what's the matter?"
Qiao Mo smiled at him and said, "Doctor Wu, I have a cold and want to buy some Isatis root."
"Do you only want Isatis root?" Doctor Wu stood up, took out a scale, and prepared to prescribe medicine for her.
"Well, please weigh 100 grams of Isatis root for me." Qiao Mo nodded.
Doctor Wu didn't say much, just weighed out 100 grams of Isatis root for her and wrapped it in straw paper.
Qiao Mo took the medicine bag and handed him the money: "Thank you, Doctor Wu. I'm fine."
"Yes, Miss." Doctor Wu waved to her.
When she returned to the educated youth site, Tang Xinmei had already cooked the dishes and served them on the table.
"Qiao Mo, eat first, then do other things." She stood at the door and waved to Qiao Mo when she saw her.
"Okay, I'll be there right away." Qiao Mo put the medicine back in his room and went to the kitchen to wash his hands and eat.
Seeing a large bowl of pickled fish on the table, Qiao Mo asked, "Brother Yuan, Brother Mo, are you guys going fishing again?"
"Well, I have nothing to do in the morning, so I just go fishing to kill time." Kang Mingyuan nodded. In fact, he was thinking that Qiao Mo liked to eat fish, but she didn't have the patience to fish. He and Han Yimo were going to repair the road, so he wanted to prepare more for her.
"We were lucky today and caught a few big fish. We're keeping them in the tank. If you change the water regularly, they'll keep us fed for a long time."
"Thank you Brother Yuan, thank you Brother Mo." Qiao Mo expressed his gratitude to them.
"You're welcome. Just stay out of the mountains by yourself. Wait until we get back to eat whatever you want."
"I understand. I won't go far alone. At most, I'll go out to pick some mushrooms and bird eggs to eat." Qiao Mo agreed with a smile.
"You must keep your word. There are many unknown dangers in the mountains. Never go into the mountains alone." Kang Mingyuan said seriously with a stern face.
"I know, I know. I cherish my life and won't take risks." Qiao Mo nodded repeatedly.
