Chapter 4, when his grandfather passed away, his family had meat to eat

Then I will listen to Grandpa next time

Yuan Dahu said: I didn't see clearly, but I saw a black tail

Release them

"That will do. Internal and external treatment, along with the blood-sucking therapy from the young master, if you still die, then it has nothing to do with me. Drink more hot water. If you recover, remember to come to my Li's Medicine Shop in the city to thank me in person!" Li Dan said to Huzi.

The cow in the pen mooed, and the one who cleans the dung arrived

Leading the cow and herding the sheep, we go to the riverbank to graze on the water grass

Yuan Dahu said it hurts, it pains! In fact, it is nothing serious, the leg is somewhat swollen, but it has not turned dark purple or ulcerated, indicating that Li Dandao has just about expelled the poison.

Ya Ya also came over to listen closely to the belly of the sheep

At this moment, Da Hu felt anxious and repeatedly said: "Father, Mother, I am sorry for you! I have been disobedient; in this life, please consider me as a guest, do not be sad..."

Li Dandao was taken aback: "Oh my little ancestor! Please do not repeat that phrase!"

Ya Ya is puzzled

Hearing the gurgling sound, she said seriously: "The sheep is hungry!"

"Dog Egg! Come and slack off! There are crabs and mantis shrimp!" shouted a mischievous child with a peach-shaped head

Master Ma requires ten pounds of hay and five pounds of fresh grass each day, along with some concentrated feed. However, since this is essentially for the benefit of the nation in raising horses, the horse feed is subsidized

Take a look at the stove that was kept yesterday, uncover it and see, it was covered with ash, but the fire inside is still burning. I added some wood shavings to stoke the fire, added a piece of firewood, and then placed a broken pot on top, putting the whole egg inside to boil.

Oh no! Yuan Dahu shouted, "There is a snake! It bit me!"

Li Dandao immediately said: "Don't let it escape! Let me see what kind of snake it is! Is it venomous or not!"

It is not a sheep's egg, but an egg from a chicken coop

Poor girl, just because you are a girl, you have never had good food since childhood. If it weren't for following your brother, scraping out a bit of meat from between my teeth, how could you have gotten so fat

Prepared bran water for the cattle and sheep to fill their stomachs first, then chopped straw will be added; when it is almost ready, they will be taken out to eat some fresh grass

Listening closely again with the ear pressed against it

Li Dan estimated that it was about time. When Yuan's father brought the incense ash, he crushed it together with fish mint, great burdock, and dandelion, applied it to the wound, and wrapped it in cloth

The sheep have also called, and there are still a few chickens.

Miss! Yuan Dahu has been bitten by a snake

After drinking the bitter and fishy concoction, Yuan Da Hu's face contorted in even greater agony, yet fearing a disgraceful death, he dared not cry out

Ordinary! Ordinary!

Fortunately, cow and sheep dung is not particularly foul-smelling, but it does have a rather strong odor

When Ma Honghua's grandfather passed away, his family had meat to eat..." said Yaya

At that moment, a cross was cut with a knife to let the blood flow

Li Dandao took out the key to unlock the door, and a faint smell of mildew, grass, as well as cow dung and sheep dung wafted out

He is the child of a farmer from this area, surnamed Yuan, named Dahu, and is well acquainted with Li Dandao

"Oh dear! What are you trying to do? I'm dizzy!" Yuan Dahu cried out in anguish: "It hurts! It hurts!"

Yaya goes to touch the sheep's Nai Nai

While educating Yaya, I said: "You are older now and cannot control your legs, but do not go to the riverbank. The water ghosts are all young boys who have never married, and they harbor great resentment. They might just pull you down to become a ghost bride."

Li Dandao lifted his belly and said, "Listen to me, I am also hungry"

Indeed, after a fright, Yuan Dahu stopped crying, his face merely displaying a sense of grievance, filled with sorrowful emotions

Just then, Yuan's father hurried over from the field and heard this. He anxiously asked, "Doctor Xiao Li, is my son Huzi alright"

Walking along the path by the river, it wasn't long before I arrived at the farm, where vast fields stretched out. Unable to keep up with the labor, small farms made of mud and thatch were situated at the edge of the fields, and the harvested straw was piled up, referred to as the cow shed.

While mowing the grass, Li Dan was pondering the few techniques taught by the old master. Among them, the technique of lifting seemed to resemble mowing in many ways, except that it was not applied to such a high position.

Your Highness, is there hot water available? Please fetch some dandelions and wild chrysanthemums, not too many, as I will prepare some medicine.

Upon hearing this, Yuan Da Hu felt as if his heart had turned to ashes. He no longer cried out in pain, his eyes filled with tears: "Gou Dan, after I die, I must ask you to take care of my father and mother... Under the bed, in that chamber pot, there are sixteen large coins I left behind; remember to tell my mother."

"Fishing! Fishing! Be careful, the water monkey will catch you! That water monkey is covered in green fur, with long arms and legs, and it particularly enjoys dragging those of you with uneven fur into the water to serve as scapegoats." Li Dan was not going to fish; the water of the Jing River was freezing cold.

It seems that there is a fetal heartbeat now

YaYa curled up her little feet

"Be careful not to catch a carp while slacking off, or the Dragon King of the Jing River will come ashore to seek you out for divination!" This is one of the strange and peculiar stories told by Li Dan.

Ya Ya pressed against Li Dan's belly, and indeed, she could hear the gurgling sounds coming from this white, tender belly that was slightly plump.

Three!

Li Dan Dao used fire to scorch the knife, and released some of the swollen blood again

It is almost five hundred wen

Ya Ya looked at the eggs in the water, drooling

"There are only two Yaya, how can it be said that there are three?"

"Brother! Are we finally able to partake in Brother Tiger's banquet?" Yaya asked, sitting on the bed and looking at Yuan Dahu's pained expression.

This sheep has given birth to a lamb! Li Dan observed that one of the sheep had a slightly enlarged belly, and after feeling it, he was unable to detect a pulse.

"Oh dear!" Yuan Da Hu exclaimed

gurgling

Carrying Yuan Dahu on his back and leading Yaya, he ran towards Yuan Dahu's home

In the household, only Uncle Li Fude has the eggs to eat. Either on the first and fifteenth of the month, everyone can enjoy a steamed egg, while the rest are taken to sell for money. Li Dandao feels this is extremely unfair, as he has already enriched himself several times.

Li Dan felt distressed and irritated, and he slapped his wound: "If you keep crying, the snake venom will seep into your liver. By the time you die, your face will be dark blue, blood will flow from your seven orifices, and your skin will rot..."

Li Dan does not care about him

Li Dandao coughed lightly and said, "Ya Ya, you truly are a great filial child!"

Li Dandao has always felt that the horse eats better than he does

Li Dandao picked up the jar and said, "Wait until the water cools down before eating"

Helped Li Dan Dao place Yuan Da Hu onto the couch

Li Dandao exclaimed, "In the pot! Aren't you ashamed of being so flustered?"

Take out another clay pot, pour a small bag of corn from your pocket into it, add water, and place it on the stove

I looked for snake medicine nearby and only found fish mint and great burdock, so I hurriedly gathered some.

Li Dan has often engaged in this matter

Li Dandao nodded and said, "It's nothing! Although I didn't see any snake bites, it was handled in time. Uncle, you should go to the community and grab a handful of incense ash to cover the wound, and wrap it with a clean cloth. Don't open it to check unless necessary, and it must not come into contact with water. Change it once every three days, using pot ash this time. If there is no fever and breathing difficulties, it will be fine. Of course, it is best to invite a doctor to take a look."

He then said to Yuan's father, "If you are still not at ease, it would be fine to go to the city and invite a doctor, alas"

"When we return, we will be able to drink porridge. Let's go, we will tend to the cattle and cut the grass."

The chamber pots and urinals in Yuan Dahu's household are all cleaned by him, and since no one else intervenes, they have become his hiding place for secret savings

On the road, I encountered a few friends who were also heading to the farm outside the city: "Dog Egg! Let's go catch some fish by the river!"

Of course, Li Dan Dao still needs to mow the grass

Yuan Da Hu's mother was winnowing grain at the door, and upon hearing it, she immediately panicked

Even Lady Yuan was brought to tears

Li Dan Dao combined it with great burdock and fish mint to brew a medicinal soup

I noticed two small bite marks on the ankle, visibly swollen and red, indicating that it must be poisonous

Before long, the water began to bubble.

Li Dandao is skilled at telling scary ghost stories, and she has been deeply affected by them

The sheep has escaped

Then Li Dandao said, "Let us split it evenly, one half for each of us"

Take out the shovel and clear away all the filth; these items are treasures of the farm, piled by Li Dandao in a pit, covered with a wooden lid on top

Ya Ya is touching the egg

"Do not be a mere country bumpkin!" Li Dan said.

Li Dan did not mind the dirt; he began to suck the blood from the wound, taking a mouthful and spitting it out.

Goodness! These plague-ridden chickens have finally laid eggs, I was thinking of killing them for meat if they didn't lay any!

With a rope tying Ya Ya's waist to my own, I am now about to start cutting grass for Uncle Ma

Surprisingly, the swollen area has reduced somewhat; it was just tied too tightly, restricting blood circulation. Li Dandao was worried that his leg would become useless, so he loosened the rope a bit to allow the blood to circulate.

"Having it means being able to eat, being in good health; without this sound, one is quickly on the verge of death"

Place the eggs into the small cloth bag from which the rice has just been poured out, and once they have cooled, consume them directly. In the wild, the eggshells will leave no evidence.

Not long after, Lady Yuan arrived with wild chrysanthemums and dandelions

Yuan Dahu climbed onto the dry bank, and Li Dandao immediately tightened the ropes binding Yaya's feet.

"It is almost five hundred wen!" Yaya is learning to speak
