With a Door In Mind

Originally, I was going to go to Jiang Dingzhong to get two piglets to raise.

Thinking that winter is only a few months away. Where do you get hogweed from then?

Now I can't grow anything on my own plot. Where can I get pig food?

But this will be fine by next year. Next year, the reserved land will be allocated to farmers again. Farming is also no longer restricted.

But at that time, people had no food to raise these livestock.

Let's wait until spring next year.

Go to the mountains in the afternoon.

But before that, you have to go and see what those herbs look like.

Jiang Xiaochuan rode his car to the commune.

After some inquiries, I came to a man's house.

Lang Zhong's surname is Tian. I don't know how the medical skills are, but it is indeed an ancestral Chinese medicine. In the era when Western medicine was not yet fully rampant, the status of these Langzhong was still very high. But after 66 years, these were the first to lose their luck.

Jiang Xiaochuan stopped and parked the car. He came to the door and knocked gently on the door.

No one opened the door, but a voice came from inside. "come in."

Jiang Xiaochuan pushed open the door and entered. I saw bamboo mats on the shelves in the yard. Various herbs are spread on top. The air is always filled with the smell of seeds.

A woman and a fifteen- or sixteen-year-old boy were dipping the fresh herbs on it.

The woman who was drying the herbs saw Jiang Xiaochuan looking at her, so she said to him, "See a doctor, right? Go inside?"

The black line at one end of Jiang Xiaochuan. Where am I sick.

But he can't say anything, who will come to find Lang Zhong if it's okay.

He nodded and walked towards the main room.

The door of the main room was not closed, and he went in directly.

There was a middle-aged man sitting at a table in the house, with a relatively thin body and a long-sleeved working cloth.

Although it was a little whitish, it was spotless. At first glance, it looks a little bookish.

Jiang Xiaochuan murmured in his heart: I don't know if it's such a hot day, I don't know if it's hot or not wearing long sleeves. Not afraid of heat stroke? It's still a doctor.

The man said without raising his head, "Wait a moment. I'll be fine in a while."

I saw that this person was taking the pulse of a middle-aged man in front of him with one hand.

After a while, he put away his hands and said to the man in front of him, "It's not a big problem. I'll give you some more medicine and go back and take it for two days. Remember not to touch the wound with water."

The man on the opposite side, who looked to be a farmer, had a wound on his right hand, which should have been injured while working.

The other party thanked him repeatedly: "Thank you, Doctor Tian." Then he gave the other party a dollar and left with the medicine. (Langzhong belonged to a special occupation during this period, and was not considered a private sale.)

Doctor Tian washed his hands before turning to look at Jiang Xiaochuan.

Then he frowned: "You don't look sick, do you? You are full of energy. Is it a hidden disease?"

Then he waved to him. "Come here and I'll give you a pulse."

Hearing his words, Jiang Xiaochuan cursed inwardly with a black line on his head: You only have hidden illnesses, your whole family has hidden illnesses, and I am doing well.

But after thinking about it, the other party is only looking at the problem from the perspective of a doctor.

He walked over and said with a smile, "Doctor Tian, ​​that's right. I'm from Jiangtai Village, isn't there a mountain there? Isn't there some herbal medicine there? I want to come and learn from you. ."

Doctor Tian shook his head when he heard his words: "I'm sorry, I don't accept apprentices."

Jiang Xiaochuan was stunned for a moment, I didn't come to study medicine.

"Doctor Tian, ​​I'm not here to study medicine, I just want to learn how to identify these medicinal materials, so that the villagers can learn it. It can also increase their income."

When Doctor Tian heard what he said,

He still shook his head and said, "I know, it's not that I don't teach you. One way of medicine is to be cautious. There are many herbs with similar growth. Short-term study is not very useful."

Nima, I'm just learning how to identify herbs, not to practice medicine, so what?

Jiang Xiaochuan frowned. Food is ancient, this man.

: "Doctor Tian, ​​look at how I can learn to identify herbs. The village is poor, if I can get some herbs, I can also make up for it. We can provide you with any herbs you need when the time comes."

Dr. Tian thought about it for a while, and the last sentence was what made his heart move. Now he is not allowed to buy or sell. Even if the herbs are picked, they can only be sold to the supply and marketing cooperatives.

You can pick as much as you can by yourself and say, "Well, you can go over and help my wife dry the medicinal materials for a few days, and then let her teach you the identification of some common medicinal materials by the way."

Jiang Xiaochuan felt awkward when he heard the two-word address of Madam.

But it's nice to be able to agree. He quickly said, "Hey, okay, then thank you, Doctor Tian."

Dr. Tian brought Jiang Xiaochuan to the yard, and shouted to the two people who were drying the herbs: "Mingyue, come here, by the way, what is your name?"

Then I remembered that I didn't know the other person's name. Then he asked Jiang Xiaochuan.

"My name is Jiang Xiaochuan, you can just call me Xiaochuan."

After hearing this, Dr. Tian turned his head and said to his wife who came to him: "Mingyue, this is Xiaochuan. During this time, you should show him the identification of basic herbs. This is my wife. Li Mingyue."

Jiang Xiaochuan hurriedly said, "Hello, Aunt Mingyue."

Li Mingyue smiled and waved to Jiang Xiaochuan: "Okay, I know, then come over."

Jiang Xiaochuan nodded at Dr. Tian and followed Li Mingyue.

Doctor Tian returned to the main room.

When he came to the place where the herbs were dried, the young man was looking at him curiously: "Little guy, why do you want to learn to recognize herbs? It smells so bad. I still have to learn it."

Seeing this, Li Mingyue patted the other party's head: "Hongjun, can you speak in a low voice, so that your father hears it, and it's another beating."

Tian Hongjun was beaten, and looked at the door of the main room and shrank his neck. "Got it, ma'am"

Seeing this, Jiang Xiaochuan smiled and said, "I'm not called the little guy. My name is Jiang Xiaochuan. You can call me Xiaochuan in the future. I'll call you Hongjun in the future."

Then he said: "We have a mountain there, and there should be some herbs in it, but we don't know each other, so I want to come and learn how to identify herbs, so that they can also be sold to the supply and marketing cooperatives."

The other party pouted and said: "This thing is not very valuable now, and it is exhausting to go to the mountains."

After speaking, he reacted, and immediately asked excitedly: "Hey, Xiaochuan, have you ever been in that mountain?"

Jiang Xiaochuan smiled and said, "I've been in. But I don't dare to enter the deep mountains, there are wolves in there."

When Tian Hongjun heard the wolf, his eyes lit up: "Then can you take me there next time? My father never let me into the mountain"

Jiang Xiaochuan touched his nose when he heard his words. He didn't dare to take him there. If there is a mistake, I can't afford this responsibility.

Li Mingyue listened to the two of them with a smile, and when she heard the words, she knocked her son on the head. : "You think going into the mountain is for fun. It's dangerous there. I don't know what it will be. If you want to go, you go to your father. See if he agrees."

When Tian Hongjun heard his mother's words, he pouted and didn't speak, how could it be. It would be nice not to break his legs.

Seeing this, Li Mingyue stopped caring about him: "Xiaochuan, come here. I will show you these herbs. Most of the herbs are generally picked from July to October. So now some people who go to the outer parts of the mountains will Bring some herbs from time to time. Not much, just a few."

After that, he briefly introduced Jiang Xiaochuan.
