Crossing the Unknown Country

Chapter 245 Su He Treats Shitou Niang

She waved goodbye to the child and walked towards the orchard, where many people were busy. After the fruit trees were planted, they needed to be fertilized and watered, and insects were caught, and the chicks under the forest were fed.

There is space here to raise a group of chickens freely. There is already a wall around the village, so there is no need to worry about the chickens running away.

When people see Su He, they greet her: "Little Master is here..."

"My little master, look at this tree, it's growing nicely!"

"Look, this sapling has grown new branches again."

"..."

Su He smiled and replied to them one by one, saying that most of the fruit trees here are alive, and if some trees grow well, they will definitely have fruit to eat next year. She thought that if she had the chance, she would find some different fruit trees and try planting them. But she didn't have many opportunities to go out, and she didn't know when she would encounter them.

She thought that she needed to find someone she could trust to help her look for it. Otherwise, it would take her many years to grow up, and by then it would be all over. She would think about it carefully when she got back and decide who to find to do this.

After looking through the trees one by one in the woods, Su He went back to the yard. Her father was still busy in the workshop in the afternoon. He was a person who could not sit still. Her father could sit in the house and drink tea and read books, but he just didn't want to sit like that.

He himself said that such a life was not what he wanted, and that being busy like this was more down-to-earth. Su He did not say anything more about him afterwards, as only those who have experienced hardship would know the importance of labor.

Although he doesn't have to do anything at home, he will do it if it makes him feel at ease. Unlike Grandpa Su He, Grandma Su He is not idle. She either helps in the workshop or takes care of the house. It's not a bad thing for them to have something to do, as long as they don't get tired.

She came to the workshop, they were busy, some were kneading the dough, some were stretching the dough, some were drying the noodles, and finally some were packaging. The group of people had clear division of labor, and everything was done in an orderly manner. Su He was very happy when she saw the noodles piled there. That was all silver.

Su He's father came over wearing an apron and a hat, and said with a smile: "Why are you here? Go read a book in the house! There is nothing interesting here, I'll be here. They are all very experienced, there will be no problem."

Su He smiled and said, "I just wanted to come and take a look. I'll go back now. You can come back and have a rest later!"

Su He's father waved at her and went back to work. He didn't want to sit idle in the house. He could chat with everyone here and learn about some things on the farm. He could also get familiar with everyone so that they wouldn't be afraid of him. He wasn't a monster.

Su He returned to the house and took out his medical book to read. He was drinking tea and reading in the house, concentrating on studying.

I heard someone outside calling out to the village head in a hurry: "Wang Zhuangtou, Shitou's mother has fainted, please find someone to quickly get a car and take her to the town's clinic!"

When Su He heard this, he stood up suddenly and ran out of the house.

She went outside and called out to the man, "Take me to see him first. I know some medical skills. Uncle Wang, please continue to find someone to hire a carriage. If it doesn't work, take me to the town."

This was a middle-aged woman. She was so happy when she heard that Su He knew medicine that she hurriedly took Su He to Shitou's house.

Shitou's family lived in a small courtyard on the farm, with two upper rooms, a kitchen and half a utility room. Shitou's mother was lying on the kang in the main room, and Shitou was beside her, calling out to his mother anxiously.

As soon as the middle-aged woman entered the yard, she shouted, "Shitou, let the young master take a look. She knows medical skills and can help with the illness."

Shitou said to Su He with tears in his eyes: "Young Master, can you please go and see my mother? She just fainted suddenly and hasn't woken up yet."

Su He said calmly: "Don't panic, let me see first."

She sat on the kang, put two fingers on Shitou Niang's wrist, and felt her pulse. Then she opened her eyes and saw that she didn't have the silver needle. She asked Shitou to find a sewing needle from her home, light an oil lamp and warm it, then she found the acupuncture points and inserted needles into several acupuncture points one by one. Because it was not enough, she hurriedly went to the neighbor's house to borrow a few needles. Nowadays, two needles are not enough for a family.
