Don't panic in a famine, I live in the mountains with my golden finger

Chapter 162 Is my ointment so effective?

idle.

Really free time.

Xu Yuan lay in bed for five days like a disabled person, and it was difficult for him to even turn over.

Doing nothing all day.

The day before yesterday, my waist was still aching from time to time. Fortunately, Xu Zhi would come over on time to apply medicine on me and rub the bruises. He would also press hard from time to time. Today, I feel much better.

There were two books on the table beside the bed. They were the ones sold to Guozi and Duodian. Xuyuan flipped through them when he was lying down these two days and had nothing to do. They were so boring that he put them back on the table after flipping through a few pages.

When people in the village who were familiar with him heard that someone had sprained his ankle by falling from a tree while picking fruit, they all strictly ordered their children to keep them from climbing trees.

Each family brought something to visit, mostly eggs. Xu Qing and Uncle Liu also slaughtered a chicken and brought a pot of chicken soup for him to nourish himself.

As for the unfortunate rabbit that was hit to death by him, after he brought it back that day, Gu Qinghan helped to clean it up, and also helped to carry back the chestnuts that the children had packed but could not carry.

What a nice person.

After the hare was ready, Xu Zhi stewed it with chestnuts. It was so delicious. He kept a large bowl of it and put it in a basket, and sent the fruit to Gu Qinghan's house.

The next day, Gu Qinghan and Li Junyong took everyone up the mountain to help. They picked most of the chestnuts from the tree and returned to the academy when the time came.

At this moment, one part of the yard was filled with thorny fruits, many branches and fruits, and many people were peeling the shells with their feet and bamboo sticks.

There was a knock on the courtyard door, and many people got up to open it.

"Grandpa Wei, hello Aunt Xu."

"Hello, Sister Biyun."

Many people saw Chen Biyun suddenly push something out from behind her, "Wow! Sister Biyun, your chair is amazing, it can move."

"Your sister is even more powerful. This is your eldest sister's idea. It's ready today, so it's a good opportunity for your sister to try it out."

Xu Qing was satisfied: "This is much more convenient. Making a wish is a good idea. Doctor Wei, let's go."

Today was the day for another dressing change. Seeing that the time was almost up, Xu Qing called Doctor Wei to come over.

Unexpectedly, that girl Chen Biyun arrived right after.

······

Xu Zhi brought a basin of hot water and asked Doctor Wei to wash his hands.

"Wan girl, how do you feel these days? Has the pain been relieved?"

Doctor Wei carefully untied the bandage and splint, and carefully examined Xu Yuan's ankle. It was no longer so red and swollen, and the area under it was bruised and purple. The bandage on the injured right knee had been untied, and it was almost scabbed.

"Ok?"

Doctor Wei was a little bit unbelieving and touched the ankle bone again.

Is the newly developed ointment so effective?

Xu Qing was worried: "What's wrong, Doctor Wei?"

"Oh, it's okay. The girl's bones are fixed. She's growing fast. Young people are different. She still needs to apply ointment. But there's no need for a splint."

"You need to change the ointment every day. Don't put too much force on this foot. You can apply the ointment yourself. You can massage it when you have time to loosen the blood stasis. I only brought two packs this time. It's not a lot. If you run out, come get more from me."

After applying the ointment, Doctor Wei put on a new bandage.

"Almost. I'm leaving now. Just be careful not to use too much force with your foot."

"Okay, thank you, Uncle Wei." Xu Yuan gave the prepared copper coins to Uncle Wei, and asked Xu Zhi to send Doctor Wei out.

Chen Biyun was helping two children peel chestnuts outside. After all, the space was limited, so it was better not to squeeze in. Seeing Doctor Wei coming out, she greeted him and moved the chair with wheels into the wishing room.

Xu Qing saw it and hurriedly helped to carry it in.

Xu Yuan was surprised: "It's done so quickly?"

"You need it urgently, so it will be convenient for you if you can use it earlier."

"Thank you, Dad. Thank you, too."

Finally I don’t have to lie in bed anymore and can sit and look around.

In the past two days, with the two crutches made by Gu Qinghan and the help of Xiaozhi, he was able to walk around. But it was not a long-term solution. After all, it would not heal in two or three days. If he healed too quickly, it would definitely attract attention. In order to make it easier for him to move around, Chen Dafu happened to come to visit him that day, so he asked him to help him get a wheelchair.

When Chen Dafu heard this, he thought: This is another new item, and his eyes lit up.

After listening to Xu Yuan's description, he fiddled with it for a few days and finally figured it out. He even sat on it to try whether it was stable, and then let his daughter take it.

"And this? Take it, Xuyuan. Daquan made it for you. He said he wanted you to get better soon."

Xu Yuan was very curious and looked at the small flower that Chen Biyun handed over.

Xu Qing heard it, and went forward to take a look, nodding secretly: "Not bad, not bad, it looks good."

This is a small flower woven with straw.

"That's thoughtful. Daquan has such skills. It's amazing. Thank him for me."

"I was also surprised. After you fell and got hurt that day, he went back and started messing around with the straw. I thought he was just playing with the straw, but I didn't expect that he would do something so fancy."

"By the way, Xuyuan, that's all for now. I still have to get firewood. I'll come to see you when I have time." Chen Biyun suddenly remembered what her mother told her before she went out. She had to go home and push the cart.

Chen Biyun said goodbye to Xu Qing and Xu Yuan and left the room.

The two little figures stood up at the same time: "Sister Biyun, are you going back?"

"Well, bring Daquan over to play with you guys when you have time. I'm leaving now."

······

Xuyuan tried to sit on the wheelchair, turned the wheels with his hands, and moved around the yard.

"Sister, do you really not need me to push you? This yard is a bit uneven." Xu Zhi was a little worried.

"No, I'll drive slowly, you go ahead and do your thing."

There were still some chestnuts that had not been picked out. Xu Qing had helped a little in the morning, and there were not many left now.

Guozi and Xuanhu have already gone to the school in the west of the village, so Xu Zhi can only do it by himself.

I haven't seen the pheasants for some time, so I turned the wheel and headed towards the chicken coop.

Ever since the big pheasant flew away last time, Xu Yuan had to buy a hen from Wang Shan. After all, the pheasants were still too young and the weather was getting a little cooler, so it would be nice to release the hen to take care of it.

It looked very small before, but it has grown a lot after not seeing it for some time.

We have to thank those two kids for digging earthworms every day and throwing vegetable leaves to them to eat. Now when they see someone coming, they don't run away, but still dig the hole with their claws.

The hens are huddled in the shed, clucking. They must be laying eggs.

After observing for a while, Xu Yuan didn't find anything unusual, and there were no holes in the shed, so he felt relieved. In order to ensure that there is enough energy for use in the winter, the protection limit of the protective barrier has been lowered. There is no guarantee that it can prevent small animals that are not dangerous to the villagers, but may be dangerous to poultry.

When the fence was built, it was covered with weeds, but now it is almost bare, which saves some effort. In order to reduce the smell, a layer of wood ash is sprinkled on the ground every once in a while. When the wind blows, the dust is blown everywhere.

Xu Yuan took a look and quickly moved his wheelchair away.
