Delivering Medicine to Parents
After a big bowl of hot noodles, Gao Mingcheng and Gao Zhuang were extremely satisfied.
After Gao Mingcheng put down the bowl, he said, "I'll go to my house and have a look."
When children come back from a long trip, they must go back to their parents' house to visit. Not to mention that the family is not separated, even if the family is separated, they still have to walk around to say that they are safe and so on.
He took the things he had prepared in advance and returned to his home, which was only a minute or two away.
The courtyard door was not closed yet, the lights were on inside, and voices could be heard coming from it.
"So did you. You actually got into a fight with someone for a few tea seeds and even fell down!" Gao Yuanyuan scolded, his tone full of anger.
"Do you blame me? That was obviously the tea tree I saw, but Gao Fuqiang insisted on coming to pick it up. How could I do it? I didn't expect her to push me! If she hadn't pushed me, would I have fallen and been injured?" Luo Xiaohua
Unconvinced, she yelled loudly and asked her eldest son to find trouble with Gao Fuqiang and ask Gao Fuqiang's family for money for medicine.
Gao Yuanyuan refused to let his eldest son go, scolding him: "Don't you think it's embarrassing! The tree belongs to the public, so why can you pick it up but she can't?"
"Why not? The last time I picked gardenias, she protected a gardenia tree and wouldn't let me pick it! If she hadn't done it first, how could I have done this?" Luo Xiaohua was also very angry.
The Gao Fuqiang family was so domineering that they even bullied her.
She also gave birth to many sons. Is she, Luo Xiaohua, still afraid of her?
When Gao Mingcheng came in, he happened to hear this. His mother was injured in a fall, so she couldn't move. She was sitting on a chair, with her right trouser leg rolled up high, exposing her calf, which was bruised and swollen.
There was a bleeding wound.
The wound was covered with a thick layer of pot ash.
Pot bottom ash is also called Baicao Shuang. It is the black ash scraped from the bottom of a large iron pot. After a large iron pot is used for a while, black ash will stick to the bottom of the pot. If it is not scraped off, the black ash is too thick and it will
Will affect cooking.
The scraped pot bottom ash will not be thrown away casually, but will be stored in special containers and can be taken out for use when necessary.
The ash from the bottom of the pot has a wide range of uses. It can stop bleeding, eliminate accumulation, clear away toxins and disperse fire.
"Mom and Dad, I'm back." Gao Mingcheng walked into the kitchen. Their kitchen was relatively simple and there were no extra stools, so he stood.
"Ming Cheng is back." Gao Yuanyuan was a little happy to see his second son back.
Although he was a bit reluctant to see the second child before, now it is obvious to the naked eye that the second child is promising, and he is the first person in the family to travel far away. Therefore, his return has attracted the attention of the whole family.
"Second brother, you're back just now? What's it like outside? How much money did you make during this trip?" Gao Mingwan, the third child, immediately came to Gao Mingcheng's side excitedly and asked with interest.
Gao Mingcheng did not answer in a hurry, but said: "I bought some anti-inflammatory drugs and brought a pack to my mother. We will talk later."
He put the bag in his hand on the table and turned around to go out.
Although the ash from the bottom of the pot can stop bleeding, taking some anti-inflammatory drugs will help the wound heal faster.
If there is no medicine, forget it. If there is, it will definitely not work if you don’t give it to your mother.
"What is this?" Gao Mingwan curiously opened the bag Gao Mingcheng placed on the table.
The bag contained two tree root-like things and a small bag of small red dried fruits.
The small dried fruit smelled a little sweet and looked like it should be edible. Gao Mingwan couldn't help but eat one, but was beaten by Gao Yuan.
"What to eat? You don't even know what they are, so you just eat them!" Gao Yuanjian scolded angrily, and then said: "These should also be medicinal materials, so don't touch them."
"Hey." Gao Mingwan responded aggrievedly after being beaten, but turned around and said to his elder brother: "It's sweet!"
The two families were close to each other, and Gao Mingcheng walked quickly, so he returned quickly. When he returned, he held a box of amoxicillin in his hand.
"Mom, this is an anti-inflammatory medicine. Take two pills." Gao Mingcheng handed the medicine to his mother.
His mother took it first and then babbled: "This medicine costs a lot of money. What are you going to do with it? My wound will be healed in a few days."
Gao Mingcheng remained silent. After all, the medicine was given, and it was up to him whether he would take it or not.
Gao Yuanyuan, on the other hand, glared at Luo Xiaohua and said, "Your leg was cut by a branch. Your son kindly gave you medicine, but you still don't take it? If you don't take it, give it back!"
Amoxicillin was not introduced into the country until this year, so it is expensive. Huang Dazhi had more than a dozen wounds on his body before, and he only gave him a box of medicine.
Although Gao Yuanyuan and the others didn't know the specific price of amoxicillin, looking at the packaging, they knew it was a Western medicine, and Western medicine meant it was expensive.
Luo Xiaohua clutched the medicine tightly and refused to give it back, so she said: "Who said I won't take it? I will take it, I will take it!"
At this time, Gao Mingwan couldn't hold it any longer, so he pulled Gao Mingcheng and asked what was in the bag.
Gao Mingcheng introduced: "These two are ginseng, which can be used to make wine or stew chicken to nourish the body. These are wolfberries, which can be soaked in water or eaten directly. When stewing chicken or meat,
You can also put some in."
Ginseng and wolfberry were both things they didn't have here. Gao Yuan and others had never seen them before.
But I have heard that ginseng is very famous, and some stories about ginseng have been circulated for a long time.
"Ginseng!" Gao Mingwan's voice suddenly became louder, and the others stared at the two ginseng trees with burning eyes.
Gao Yuanyuan's face flushed with excitement, and he reached out to touch it. When he touched it, he shrank his hand again.
"Is this ginseng? The ginseng that can extend your life?" he said tremblingly.
Everyone gathered around, even Huang Su'e and Gao Shufang, who were responsible for cooking and lighting the fire, also gathered around.
Because Luo Xiaohua was injured in a fall, their family has not eaten dinner yet.
Gao Mingcheng smiled slightly and said: "It's not as exaggerated as life extension, but it's quite nourishing for the body. This is the ginseng from Changbai Mountain, it's the best ginseng."
Gao Yuan was too excited to touch it, but Gao Mingwan took action directly. He shouted: "Bring the kerosene lamp!"
Then he said: "Dad, please run a wire to the house and buy a light bulb. It's inconvenient without a light bulb. I can't even see clearly!"
Gao Yuanyuan reached out to hit him excitedly, shouting hurriedly: "Put it down, put it down, don't take it, don't break it!"
Gao Mingwan refused and avoided it, looking at the ginseng carefully with his elder brother.
Wolfberry is not that famous, so no one looked at it. Only Huang Su'e was a little moved and asked: "What good will eating this wolfberry do to the body?"
She is a pregnant woman and is also very interested in supplements. Her parents bought a pound of brown sugar and a pound of red dates for her to replenish her body.
In her opinion, brown sugar and red dates are both red, so the wolfberry is also red, and she should be able to eat it.
Gao Mingcheng saw her plan, but also said: "Lycium barbarum can nourish the liver and kidneys, improve eyesight and nourish blood, and enhance people's immunity. My sister-in-law can eat it, but pregnant women should eat less ginseng."
After getting the answer, Huang Su'e immediately looked at Luo Xiaohua.
Luo Xiaohua was very kind to her and was willing to give her the good food at home.
Luo Xiaohua saw her look and said instinctively: "Oh, you can't eat ginseng, then eat more wolfberries!"
He also asked Gao Mingcheng how much the ginseng and wolfberry cost respectively.
Gao Mingcheng did not say it directly, but said: "Most of the money I made during this trip is here."
