Splendid Pastoral: The Strong and Hot Wife

Chapter 150 Cure Leg Disease

When Xu Xiaomi carefully observed Qiu Zhongxiang's leg, he felt that he had made a jump to conclusions. The general's leg seemed to be injured!

She also rushed over to help Qiu Zhongxiang's other arm, saying, "Uncle Qiu, slow down!"

"Hey! Good!" Qiu Zhongxiang responded.

When Qiu Zhongxiang saw these two children, he suddenly felt that he was really old. He had never suffered from this leg disease when he was young, but it happened from time to time after the snow disaster that year, especially in winter.

"Uncle Qiu, what's wrong with your leg!"

Xu Xiaomi couldn't help but asked.

"My leg... Alas! It's a leg disease, and it starts to hurt when the weather is cold. The pain is unbearable!"

Qiu Zhongxiang replied helplessly.

The three of them walked while talking, and slowly walked into the tent.

In the general's camp there was only a shelf for hanging coats and hats, a rectangular low table painted with raw lacquer, and a large desk.

Xu Xiaomi heard what Qiu Zhongxiang said about the leg disease along the way, and said, "Uncle Qiu, Xiaomi originally came from the mountains.

However, I also learned a little bit from Dr. Yu in the early years, and I also know a thing or two about leg diseases. Could you show Xiaomi your legs? "

"Oh! Ms. Xu still understands medical skills? Well, please ask Ms. Xu to help me see!"

As soon as Qiu Zhongxiang heard that Xu Xiaomi knew medical skills, he couldn't control his excitement.

"Uncle Qiu, don't be polite to Xiaomi! Grandpa Qiu and my grandfather are brothers, and you are Xiaomi's elder. From now on, you will be called Xiaomi girl!"

Xu Xiaomi said shyly, and said, "Uncle Qiu, sit down and let me see your legs!"

"Hehe... hey! Good!"

Qiu Zhongxiang sat on the mat in front of the table with a smile, and Qiu Yongzheng helped him take off his cloth boots and cloth socks.

Xu Xiaomi looked at the somewhat swollen calf and asked, "Uncle Qiu, shouldn't this mean ankle pain? Brother Qiu, please roll up your trouser legs."

"Oh! Yes! The pain is all around the knees! Hey..." Qiu Zhongxiang said in pain.

When Qiu Yongzheng rolled up the wide white trouser legs, Xu Xiaomi saw the red and swollen knees.

Xu Xiaomi squatted down, reached out to touch the swollen knee, and pressed the somewhat cold skin with her index finger.

Isn't this what people said in previous lives, rheumatoid arthritis?Xu Xiaomi looked at it and put down the trouser legs.Qiu Yongzheng was busy putting on socks and boots for his father.

"Yeah, girl! Uncle's leg..."

Seeing that Xu Xiaomi didn't speak after reading it, Qiu Zhongxiang asked a little uneasy, but when the words came to his lips, he was a little afraid to ask. To be precise, he was even more afraid of hearing unwanted results.

Xu Xiaomi was only thinking about herself, and didn't expect the mentality of a person who had been ill for a long time, especially when the other party was a general who had spent his entire life in the army.

When she heard Qiu Zhongxiang's question, she hurriedly said: "It's okay! Uncle Qiu, as long as you keep warm, you'll be fine. Oh! That's right! Do you have any wine here?"

After hearing Xu Xiaomi's words, Qiu Zhongxiang felt a little chilled in his heart, and thought: What she said means that she will not be able to stand on the stage in the future?
"Yes! There's wine, I'll get it!" Seeing that his father's face was a little bad after hearing what Xu Xiaomi said, Qiu Yongzheng hurriedly answered.

Xu Xiaomi also saw Qiu Zhongxiang's uneasiness, but here, there is no alcohol, no baby warmers, no extra cotton, and no air-conditioning.

How can she guarantee that the stubborn rheumatoid arthritis can be cured without recurrence?
Xu Xiaomi silently recalled the information she had checked on Du Niang for her grandmother's rheumatism in her previous life.

It seems that there is a small folk prescription, which is to soak chili peppers in wine, and then take the wine and rub the affected area every day.

When Qiu Yongzheng brought the wine, Xu Xiaomi found a bowl, poured half of it, smelled it, and found that the wine was very weak, and it was impossible to burn it.Xu Xiaomi saw a small incense burner on the table.She asked Qiu Yongzheng to find a piece of charcoal.

Qiu Yongzheng said gruffly: "Sister! We don't have charcoal here now, and what we cook and burn are all the branches that have just been cut from outside the city."

Xu Xiaomi felt a little uncomfortable when he heard this, saying that the women and children didn't understand how to use soldiers. Could it be that the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty didn't understand either?

Forget it!Xu Xiaomi thought about it, and remembered the raw lime she had brought with her when she left to make jelly for the officers and soldiers.

"Uncle Qiu! Just wait for me!" Xu Xiaomi ran out after finishing speaking.

Qiu Zhongxiang was afraid that she would run out and get lost, so he hurriedly shouted: "Zheng'er, go and have a look, don't get lost!"

Hearing his father's instructions, Qiu Yongzheng hurriedly got up and followed. When she just caught up with Xu Xiaomi, she was stopped by soldiers guarding the granary.

"Girl, please go back! This is an important military area, you can't go in!" said the soldier guarding the granary.

"Brother! I'll go in and get something, and I'll come out when I get it! Just let me in!" Xu Xiaomi begged.

The soldier guarding the granary said seriously: "No!"

Where Xu Xiaomi stood speechless, Qiu Yongzheng hurried over and said, "Zhou Shun, let Miss Xu go in!"

"Master, this..." the soldier named Zhou Shun looked at Qiu Yongzheng helplessly and said.

"It's okay! Let her in!" Qiu Yongzheng insisted.

Zhou Shun had no choice but to stand by the wall and let out the door. Xu Xiaomi walked in, rummaged through the baskets for a while, and finally found the bag of raw lime in a basket containing potatoes.

She took out all of them, lest she come over to get them again when she needs them, trouble!
Xu Xiaomi got the lime and ran towards the general's tent.Qiu Yongzheng had no choice but to follow.

Xu Xiaomi ran back to the tent, hurriedly took out a piece of lime, put it on the ground and poured some tea on the lime with a teacup.

As soon as the tea was poured, Lime made a whirring sound, followed by a puff of white smoke, and finally dispersed with a bang.

Xu Xiaomi hurriedly put the half poured bowl of wine on top of the scattered lime, letting it heat up with the heat of the lime.

Seeing this chemical reaction, Qiu Zhongxiang's eyes widened in shock. Looking at Xu Xiaomi, he almost mistakenly thought that Xu Xiaomi knew magic tricks.

Qiu Yongzheng had never seen this scene before, so he sincerely admired Xu Xiaomi in his heart.

Xu Xiaomi waited for the wine in the bowl to smoke slightly before picking it up, walked to Qiu Zhongxiang's side, and asked Qiu Yongzheng to roll up his trouser legs to expose his knees.

Then Xu Xiaomi squatted down, dipped his hands in the wine in the bowl and wiped away the redness and swelling of Qiu Zhongxiang's knee.

It wasn't until the wine in the bowl was wiped off and Qiu Zhongxiang's knees felt very hot that Xu Xiaomi stopped and asked Qiu Yongzheng to put down his trouser legs and help him put on his shoes and socks.

At this moment, Qiu Zhongxiang felt that the skin and bones on the knee were hot and comfortable.

Xu Xiaomi was sweating profusely, put down the bowl in his hand, and took out the handkerchief in his pocket to wipe the sweat from his forehead.

Said: "Uncle Qiu, come here today! You rest first!"

After Xu Xiaomi finished speaking, he pulled Qiu Yongzheng out, and after leaving the camp Xu Xiaomi asked, "Brother Qiu, it's already time, have you had lunch yet?"

When Xu Xiaomi asked, Qiu Yongzheng's stomach growled unbearably.Qiu Yongzheng replied with a blushing face: "Ha! No, no! We had a meal yesterday, and today..."

"Then why don't you take me to the kitchen? Have you forgotten why I came here?" Xu Xiaomi said helplessly.

I really feel sorry for these soldiers!Working hard for the country here, I have nothing to eat!At this time, Xu Xiaomi really wanted to go to the palace and punish that stupid king severely.

After hearing what Xu Xiaomi said, Qiu Yongzheng remembered that Xu Xiaomi was here to deliver food to them.

He hurriedly dragged Xu Xiaomi to the kitchen.The kitchen in the barracks sounds good to say, but it is actually a few stoves built with some stones in the open air.

Xu Xiaomi took a look, and the pot was a little bigger than theirs.She thought: so many people, this pot is too small, right?

However, she didn't say anything, and walked over to have a look, and found that the water was stored in two stone jars.Tableware is still readily available.

Look at the sun in the sky, it's probably Shen time, right?That is, between three o'clock and five o'clock now.

Xu Xiaomi quickly rolled up his sleeves and scooped water for cooking.She said to Qiu Yongzheng who was standing there in a daze: "Brother Qiu, hurry up and beat the rice, I'll make a delicious meal for the soldiers.

There was dried pork in that bag years ago. Although it was not much, it was still satisfying. "

After hearing this, Qiu Yongzheng ran towards the granary. After running a few steps, he heard Xu Xiaomi's voice from behind.

"I want to carry a bag of rice! Take five pieces of meat!"

Qiu Yongzheng went there for about 10 minutes, and then came over with Zhou Shun carrying rice and bacon!
At this time, Xu Xiaomi had already boiled the water in the pot, picked up a basin and beat a few bowls of rice, the pot was too small to beat more, this rice can only be cooked a few times!Otherwise how can there be enough to eat?

While washing rice, Xu Xiaomi said, "Brother Qiu, go and carry another bag of potatoes!"

Xu Xiaomi wanted to make roasted bacon with potatoes for the poor soldiers.

Hearing Xu Xiaomi's order, Qiu Yongzheng hurried out, but after walking a few steps, he turned back again.Looking at the busy Xu Xiaomi, he asked suspiciously, "Sister, what are potatoes?"

When he asked, Xu Xiaomi remembered that the potatoes were just brought back from the Western Regions by his second uncle the year before last, and he only got a little more this year.

So, she laughed and said, "Hehe...how did I forget this? Hehe..."

When Xu Xiaomi smiled, Qiu Yongzheng also blushed and laughed.

"That's good! Wait a minute, let's go together!"

Xu Xiaomi laughed enough and said.Qiu Yongzheng nodded.

Xu Xiaomi quickly boiled the rice in the pot and asked Zhou Shun to watch the fire, and they went to the granary together.

Xu Xiaomi thought that Dingzhou is located in the northwest, which is actually very conducive to the growth of potatoes, and it is so far away from the capital, if that stupid king wanted to kill them that day, it would be too easy.

So, as she walked, she told Qiu Yongzheng how to grow potatoes, and told him that they could grow them in the open space outside the city. The potatoes could fill their stomachs.

If they come late next time, they won't be as hungry as today.
