Li Xiyue was amused by the way the two got along, gave the old soldier a few words of advice, and then got up and left.
After getting off the train, Li Xiyue asked, "Deputy Commander Chu, does the old commander usually take Western medicine?"
“Yes, the doctors at the hospital said the old commander has severe lung inflammation and needs to take anti-inflammatory drugs,” Chu Xun replied.
Li Xiyue said, "Western medicine only treats the symptoms, not the root cause. If you trust traditional Chinese medicine, I can prescribe a formula for the old leader. Although the treatment will take a little longer, the effect will be better than Western medicine."
Traditional Chinese medicine is just as effective as Western medicine in reducing inflammation and phlegm, and it has fewer side effects. However, traditional Chinese medicine is being suppressed in this era, so many people are afraid and unwilling to believe in it.
Chu Xun said, "I believe in our own people's medicine. Comrade Li, please write the prescription." He then asked his guard to bring him paper and pen.
Li Xiyue felt a greater appreciation for him. Some people's behavior is so contradictory. On the one hand, they say that reading foreign books is worshipping foreign things, but on the other hand, they regard Western medicine as the gold standard. I really don't understand what they're thinking.
After writing down the prescription, Chu Xun took it without even looking at it and accepted it. Then he took out a stack of money and said, "Comrade Li, this is your consultation fee."
“Without you soldiers, we ordinary people wouldn’t have the peaceful life we have now. It’s my honor to do something for our old leader. How could I accept money?” Li Xiyue said and walked away.
Without the sacrifices of these predecessors, there would be no prosperous and peaceful times in later generations. Li Xiyue is filled with gratitude and respect for soldiers from the bottom of her heart. Now that she has the opportunity to do her part for an old soldier, she is happy and would never ask for any reward.
Chu Xun was slightly taken aback, then chased after him, saying, "Even if you don't charge a consultation fee, you should be commended for helping the police catch two enemy agents."
"Thank you, Deputy Commander Chu, but that's a matter for the police officers. How could I let you spend money?" Li Xiyue said with a generous smile and left.
Chu Xun stood there, watching her leave until she disappeared from sight, before slowly coming back to his senses and stepping into the carriage.
"Women are just as capable as men." Xie Zhenhua said to Chu Xun as he entered from the bed, clearly having overheard Li Xiyue's words.
Chu Xun remained noncommittal.
This was the first time he had ever met such a unique girl. For some reason, despite her petite appearance, she exuded a powerful aura.
"Is she the person your grandfather is looking for?" Xie Zhenhua asked.
Chu Xun nodded. "Yes."
"I heard that the spies who were secretly following her have disappeared without a trace. What do you think?" Xie Zhenhua asked.
"She has that ability." Chu Xun recalled that clean, smiling face, and a strange emotion welled up inside him.
After two days and one night, the train finally arrived in the southern province.
Li Xiyue used the two days she spent on the train to sow all the seeds on the red soil.
Not having enough seeds, she bought some more from the space store, including grains, vegetables, and fruits, which have all started to sprout, some even growing into tender green seedlings.
The two piglets in the pigpen have grown quite a bit, the chickens, ducks, and geese have all started laying eggs, and the fish and shrimp have begun their first breeding.
The breeding and planting time in the original space is three times faster than outside, so the growth time of both animals and plants only needs one-third of the time outside.
If you feed them spiritual spring water, the growth time can be shortened by half.
Li Xiyue secretly ate a few eggs in the space and found that they tasted much better than the eggs bought outside. She couldn't resist eating a meal of river shrimp, and the meat was more tender and smooth than ordinary shrimp.
It seems that the spring water is not only friendly to people, but also to animals and plants, improving their taste and quality.
During her free time, she also tidied up the space, putting Li Muqing's large bed, dressing table, wardrobe, and other items into the bamboo house's bedroom. She disinfected and aired out the bed sheets and blankets so they could be used without worry.
They put the pots, pans, firewood, rice, oil, and salt they had collected from home into the kitchen so they could cook whenever they had free time.
All the usable tables and chairs were used, and the unusable ones were sold at the flea market for money.
