Mr. Cui arrived very quickly.
After feeling Li Xuemei's pulse, he looked at her face and asked a few questions.
He said: "The weather is hot, and I can easily become restless. Don't eat too much spicy food. Everything else is fine. Just go to bed when you feel sleepy. No need to force yourself."
He comforted Li Xuemei a few words, saying that the fetus was very good and healthy, so she didn't need to worry.
The child is very filial and did not make any trouble during the bumpy journey.
"Brother Cui, is it because of the hot weather?" Yan Laoer deliberately avoided eating spicy food. He didn't know about his wife, so he told her not to eat spicy food, because she might not be able to bear it.
But yes, the weather is so hot, I am pregnant, and I am greedy...
Mr. Cui pondered for a moment and said: "I won't prescribe the medicine. Drink more water. Honeysuckle and wild chrysanthemum can be brewed. If you don't have enough, go to my place to get it."
Yan Laoer nodded with a strange expression.
It turns out that Dr. Cui also knew how to cure all diseases by drinking water.
"There happen to be beans at home, how about I make her a three-bean soup?" Yan Laoer belatedly thought of this summer treat to relieve the heat.
Looking at the platform, it is clearly stated that red beans, mung beans, black beans and rock sugar are all prepared.
Why are you so slow?
"Three bean drinks?" Mr. Cui nodded repeatedly, stroking his palms: "Yes, yes, it clears away heat and detoxifies, strengthens the spleen and removes dampness."
The way he looked at Yan Laoer immediately changed. Thinking of what his wife had been nagging in his ears these days, he couldn't help but praise: "Brother Yan is really well-informed."
Yan Laoer:......
What kind of knowledge is this? People on TV talk about health and wellness every day.
A handful of red beans, a handful of mung beans, a handful of black beans, rock sugar, add water and bring to a boil over high heat.
In about half a quarter of an hour, the fire can be withdrawn.
Let cool and drink immediately.
Yan Laoer cooked a big pot, and everyone in the family had a share.
Not to mention that after drinking this slightly sweet three-bean soup, I feel less dry.
…
That night, there were still four people, Yan Laoer and the Qi brothers.
Regroup and start working again.
Drawing on the experience from the last time and discussing it with his wife and daughter-in-law, Yan Laoer's method of burning charcoal this time was very different from the last time.
This time, the selection of firewood was very strict from the very beginning. Look for the wood that is tight enough to carry the fire. First, dig a hole in the ground, pick a big one and stand it in, fill it back with some soil, and let it stand firmly.
.
Pile other firewood around this 'big wooden pillar' to form a cone shape, making the whole more concentrated and stable.
The pile of firewood is covered with a layer of hay and leaves until the firewood inside is no longer visible, and then mud is applied on top.
Still leaving one big hole on the top and eight small holes on the bottom.
After a fire was ignited in the large hole, the mound began to emit green smoke...
At this step, the basic process has been completed.
Yan Laoer took turns guarding the house with the Qi brothers.
He told the three of them: "If this mound burns dry and cracks, put mud on top of it. Pay close attention to the eight ventilation holes at the bottom. Use mud to kill any holes burned by the fire. Wait until all the holes underneath are covered with mud."
Block it, and block the big one on top too."
The three brothers of the Qi family looked worried. We will do whatever you ask us to do. Why do you tell us that we don't want to learn?
After Yan Laoer finished explaining, he went back to catch up on his sleep.
It was a little late when they were doing the charcoal burning, so I was afraid they would have to work all night.
He has been busy these days and hasn't had much sleep. He really can't bear it and needs to lie down.
But none of the three Qi brothers dared to leave.
"Fourth, fifth, let the three of us keep watch," Qi Da said.
Qi Si said: "Brother Yan spoke a little too fast just now. Let's talk to each other and see if we can remember everything."
Qi Wu took advantage of his young age and said first: "I'll say it first, I'll say it first, Brother Yan said..."
Then Qi Da, and finally Qi Si.
The three brothers listened to each other and found that they were very good. They wrote everything down without any mistakes or omissions.
Before they could finish their fun, Luo Da, who was in charge of vigil today, came over.
"What are you three brothers doing?"
Three people were surrounding a mound. The mound looked like a grave. It was so late at night that it was scary.
Luo Da was glad that he was brave and was replaced by a timid one, so he was scared to death.
Qi Si hurriedly explained: "We are here to help Brother Yan. The Yan family's charcoal-burning method was harmed by the big snake last time. I don't know if it will work. Now, while we have time, Brother Yan can help
Want to try again."
The reason why Yan Laoer was pressed for time to burn it again was because he was worried about the inconvenience of being far away from water sources in the future.
Luo Da accepted this statement very easily.
"Yan Laoer is quite discerning. You brothers are all sincere. You must not let him tell anyone about it."
"No!" Qi Da smiled naively.
I am very happy to receive this evaluation from Luo Da.
"Then how can we tell it to the outside world? We won't tell anyone. Brother Yan thinks highly of us, so we will help him." Qi Wudao.
Luo Da nodded and left.
When he returned, he went to find his father.
"Dad, Yan Laoer asked the Qi brothers to help burn charcoal." He told the story.
Village Chief Luo rubbed his hands and said nothing for a long time.
"father?"
"Dad! Even if you don't call me, I know I am your dad." Village Chief Luo said angrily.
This suddenly interrupted his train of thought.
After another long while, Village Chief Luo said: "Xiucai is a man of great success. Let's go north. The first thing we don't get used to is the cold."
"How much money would we save if we could burn charcoal ourselves!" Luo Daman said with longing.
"Shut up! Whoever belongs to you and us belongs to the Yan family!" Old Man Luo said with his eyes raised.
"Oh dad, that's not what I meant." Luo Da said anxiously: "The Yan family can make charcoal, so we won't tell you if we are nearby. When we get to the north, we are new here, so we don't have to be deceived that we are foreigners and sell us at a high price."
Village Chief Luo nodded and said slowly: "It's good that you can think of this."
"Although our ancestors are all from the north, we are afraid that others will not regard us as fellow villagers.
When I see the Yan family doing things, it is Yan Laoer who is doing things outside. He and I are different in terms of seniority. You brothers should hang out with him more often. If you have anything to do, learn from the brothers of the Qi family. You can lend a hand and contribute ideas. What are you afraid of?
Look, in the future, if the Yan family is determined to make charcoal burning a long-term business and make a living, the Qi family will definitely be the first to find people to work with."
"We're pretty good, Yan Laoer! We didn't hunt those three wild boars together..." Luo Dadao.
"What is Yan Lao Er? Brother Yan." Village Chief Luo glared at him and said: "I think Yan Lao Er asked his brother to come over. He helped the villagers run errands all the way to make up for his stuttering. It's really
He doesn't hide away when something happens, he takes the lead, and he also rushes to do the night watch work, driving, feeding cows, cooking...
I didn’t know before that each family lived their own lives behind closed doors, but I saw that he still loved his wife and daughter. When I thought about it carefully, he didn’t do anything bad in the village, it was all nonsense spread from outside.
Just think about the lavishness of his brother's money. Alas! You should say it or not, but Yan Laoer is really greedy. Look at how much he bought of those expensive spices!"
After I finished speaking, I thought about the smell of the barbecue. Not to mention, it was really delicious.
Luo Da: Don’t let me call you Yan Laoer. Dad, you still have to call me Huan.
