Villager of Daming

Chapter 1203 Suffering and Happiness Come from Information

"Wine, drink! Warm! Sweat! Hmm! Hehehehehe..."

Everyone was chatting and adding seasonings to the mutton soup. Zhu Wentian brought over a wine bottle filled with white wine.

It was mainly given to the four princes, but minors could drink it as well. The fifth prince, Zhu Su, only needed to drink one or two ounces, less than 40 grams, and his stomach would feel warm after drinking it.

It's raining and the humidity is high, so you can drink medicinal wine to dispel the cold, or boil rice wine with shredded ginger.

"The wine tastes sweet!" Although Zhu Su was young, he loved wine. He took a sip, smacked his lips, and said it was sweet.

"Don't drink too much sweet food. Put a lot of wolfberries in it. Take a nap after dinner. Once the prisoners are gathered, speed up the march."

Ling'er brought the water-filled tripe over. The conditions were limited, but no matter how hard it was, the prince could not suffer. Xiaqiu Village was like a nanny.

Zhu Di had two taels of wine. He was one year older than Zhu Su, fifteen years old in terms of age, but he seemed much more mature.

He took a sip of wine, exhaled slowly, and smacked his lips in the same way: "It's really sweet. This is my first time seeing a war. Neither the attacker nor the defender is comfortable. I wonder if we can do it if it's our turn?"

He didn't know that in history he was a very good fighter. He dared to charge into the battle line with his personal guards and fought until he sat on the throne. Now he probably has no chance.

As long as his elder brother and his biological mother were not dead, his unborn nephew would not be able to sit on the throne, and that nephew would probably be gone.

Now that his elder brother has not married Lü Ben's daughter as his second concubine, if Empress Dowager Lü wants to enter the Prince's Mansion, she has to see whether the village guard of Xiaqiu Village agrees.

The second son's marriage has been ruined, and he is still single now. Wouldn't it be easier to find another one?

Xu Da looked at his future son-in-law and smiled: "If everything is done this way, we can save ourselves the trouble. It may be tiring, but we won't die!

Isn't it tiring to work on the farm? As long as you are alive, there are always things like this and that, and many times you don't know whether you are in a good mood or not.

Rich people may not be in a good mood, and poor people... are even worse. Unless they never interact with the outside world, they will feel uncomfortable when they see others living a good life while they are living a bad life.

The most carefree person is Hanhan, who is happy all day long and doesn't seem to have any worries. He is really enviable... What's the matter?"

Xu Da was talking about whether he was worried or not, and whether he was suffering or not, when he saw one of his messengers coming over and standing there waiting. He stopped what he was about to say and asked.

"Someone was bitten by a snake and thought it was fine at first, thinking it was non-venomous. But now it's swollen and getting bigger and bigger. He asked if there was any medicine."

The signalman looked at everyone present and tried to make his voice as calm as possible.

"Carry it here! Have you found the snake?" the head of the village said. The team had medicine, which they had prepared a long time ago, specifically to deal with situations like this.

"Yes, yes, the snake is there, and it's still alive!" The communications soldier nodded.

"Go quickly!" Xu Da ordered, and the signalman ran away immediately.

Not long after, a man came over, his shirt off, bare-chested. The index finger of his right hand was the most swollen, followed by his hand and forearm.

Zhu Wentian took a look: "..."

He wondered, judging from the man's injuries, he must have been poisoned not long ago, so why was it on his hand? Was there a poisonous snake nearby?
Looking at the snake being carried again, it turned out to be a pheasant neck, scientifically known as the tiger-necked snake. It is poisonous, but it is very difficult to be poisoned by it.

Was the finger bitten by a snake? Otherwise, it would be just a little venomous and swollen.

The venom glands in the pheasant's neck are not connected to the teeth. The teeth release the poison immediately after taking a bite, and the poison has not yet entered the wound, so it is non-toxic. Or, only a little bit of poison rubs against the wound, which is not dangerous, just like a bee sting.

Now it is obviously not the case. Why would the tiger-necked snake jump up and bite the opponent's finger? Or was the opponent bitten while lying down and sleeping?
"Pheasant neck? Wait a minute, I'll go get the serum, the blood toxin." Ling'er put down her chopsticks and went to look for the box in the village. The anti-snake venom serum was stored at low temperatures and the quantity was limited.

Zhu Wentian took a look and thought that the soldier's life was not in danger. There were two ropes tied on his arm to prevent the blood from flowing quickly. The color of the arm did not change much, proving that it was tied for a short time.

He was thinking about what Xu Da had just said. Happiness and unhappiness are basically contrasts. The more information one is exposed to, the more comparisons one makes.

Give the people living in the mountains a mobile phone and watch videos about life in Nanjing Xiaqiu Village. The people living in the mountains are dumbfounded. How can they really live like that?

We eat meat every day, and in winter we can eat fresh fruits and vegetables. The house is so big, and the bedding inside is made of satin? Is it called satin? Oh! It’s called brocade! Where is it from Shu? It’s so beautiful!

Oh! Their toilet is better than where we sleep, and they don’t live by the river, so how come they always have water? It’s boiled!

After learning about this, the people in the mountains discovered that their lives were hard and could not compare to others.

A girl from the mountain who was about to get married saw a man with good temperament, talent and wealth from Xiaqiu Village, and she wanted to find someone like him. Chen Axiao from the village next door was not suitable, so she didn't want him.

The young man Chen Xiao also saw it and thought, "Oh my! The girls elsewhere are pretty, but the Guihua I want to marry is too different. I don't want her."

Even the older ones, almost fifty, are thinking about divorce.

After doing farm work for so many years, her children have grown up and her husband doesn't seem to have any merits. She got married at the behest of her parents and the matchmaker.

Now that I have a cell phone, I can write a poem. So many people praise me. I have to fight back. I can’t be with that man who is nothing. I have to divorce him and go to the government office…

This is the negative side of the information. The positive side is that you will gain more useful resources. For example, if you don’t know how to do your homework, just ask immediately, and then you can finish it, right?

Just like the pheasant neck now, it is still alive, and its venom is difficult to extract. It will not secrete venom if you let it bite something with its teeth, unless you insert a needle into the venom gland to extract it. It would be better to use other venomous snakes.

Another thing is this person's finger. How did he get bitten? With the Internet, I can ask, under what circumstances will a venomous snake bite a finger? Catch the snake?

"Okay, let's wait and see! It won't heal in ten days or half a month, and even if it does, the skin on your arm will peel off.

The swelling is still there, so you need to pay a little attention to your diet, don't eat anything irritating, and don't drink alcohol.

This snake bite is usually fine, you were helping someone catch a snake and got bit on your finger by accident?"

Ling'er came over and got the injection right away, without doing an allergy test. She was anxious, so she needed to be observed. If she was allergic, she would have to find a way to deal with it.

"It was an accident." The one who was bitten was a centurion. He looked nervous just now, but now he felt more relaxed.

"He was bitten because someone caught the snake and he teased it."

The signalman next to him didn't tolerate the centurion. Of course you were careless, but your carelessness did not help to tease the snake.

Everyone: "..."

"Ling'er shouldn't have taken the precious anti-venom serum and let him die."

Xu Da glared at him. "What time is it? You still have the time to tease a snake?" You...

"How about I try to extract the serum that was just inserted?"

Ling'er also regretted it. Would it be okay to kill a centurion?
