Chapter 117 Going up the mountain to collect herbs
Qin Wangshu also went up the mountain, but like Dong Shaofang, she did not sign up.
For the same reason as Dong Shaofang, she didn't know any herbs.
She went up the mountain with those aunts. Others went there to get work points, but she went there to study.
Qin Wangshu was thinking about going up the mountain to find ginseng, but in fact she didn't have much hope. After all, she only knew what ginseng looked like underneath and that it would bear red fruits, but as for what the leaves looked like, she had no idea at all.
As for the mountain next to them, they usually only move around on the edge of the mountain and dare not go deep into the mountains because it is said that there are wolves in there.
Hearing that there were wolves, Qin Wangshu was even more afraid to go in. Although she had space, she was just cannon fodder and did not have the aura of a protagonist. She did not think that she could turn danger into safety, so it was better not to take risks easily.
Now that so many people have gone there, safety is guaranteed, and we can go deeper into the area later.
The aunts who work like Qin Wangshu like this kid who helps with the work without asking for work points, is sweet-mouthed and efficient.
There were not many aunts coming to collect herbs this time, and some middle-aged men also came to ensure their safety.
In addition, I still want to catch some small animals such as rabbits and pheasants to add some meat to everyone.
Now is the time when animals in the mountains store food for the winter, and some animals that need to hibernate are also storing fat. Although they dare not attack some large animals, they can still attack small rabbits, pheasants and the like.
On the first day they entered the mountains, they picked several baskets of medicinal herbs, all of which were relatively common, and even some of the wild vegetables they often ate.
Before Doctor Bai told them, they didn't know that these common grasses and wild vegetables actually have medicinal value and can cure diseases.
But it’s not too late now. They can pick more and keep them at home so they can use them when needed.
The men also brought back a few rabbits and pheasants, but they couldn't be divided, so the team leader asked everyone to exchange them for work points.
Of course, the ones who have contributed have the right to change first.
Qin Wangshu did not change. Rabbit meat needs a lot of oil to cook well, and pheasant is not as fragrant as local chicken, so she has no interest in either pheasant or rabbit.
Her day was not entirely without gain. In addition to getting to know many plants, she also found a hawthorn tree.
The hawthorn tree is located close to the mountains, so the fruits on the tree have not been discovered by people, only some birds use it as food.
When Qin Wangshu went to pick them, the aunt next to him didn't understand.
"This doesn't taste good, it's sour and makes you hungry. Why did you pick that, young educated youth Qin?"
"At least it's a snack, and hawthorn is also a medicinal herb. I used to take hawthorn pills when I had indigestion, so I know." She didn't dare say that the reason for her indigestion was that she ate too much.
In this age when most people don't have enough to eat or eat well, she said she was full. Isn't this just provoking hatred?
After Qin Wangshu finished his explanation, others started talking about how reading is so useful.
Qin Wangshu, who was walking nearby, didn't know how to react and could only smile awkwardly.
After the people who went to collect herbs came back, Doctor Bai began to teach them how to process and prepare these herbs and also explained some simple uses.
Doctor Bai's generosity made everyone in the team feel ashamed.
Doctor Bai has been here for a few years. Although they didn't do anything to him, they didn't take care of him either. They just watched them suffer with indifference. But they didn't expect that he would treat them like this.
The people in the team put themselves in Doctor Bai's position and felt that they did not have such a broad mind to not hold grudges.
Thinking of the people in the commune, the people in the brigade secretly decided in their hearts that next time they came, they would definitely help Doctor Bai.
The team leader also felt that Doctor Bai was a really good doctor. Although he had been demoted, he still had such medical ethics. Thinking of the people in the team, especially the several sick team members, he wondered if he could ask Doctor Bai to help.
But before that, he should improve Dr. Bai's living standards.
The weather is getting colder and the cowshed is not warm enough. Can we give them a new place to live?
He didn't dare to consider it before. After all, people from the commune often come here. Now they haven't come for nearly half a year, so they should be able to relax a little.
Moreover, if Doctor Bai had treated someone in the team, the team members would have covered up for him and would not have let the secret slip in front of the people from the commune.
But where to put him? The captain was worried again.
It's not that there are no empty houses in the brigade. They are just in disrepair for many years, and some even have collapsed roofs. If Doctor Bai and his men were to live there, they would probably be worse than a cowshed.
After all, the cowshed is for cows to live in, and it is built very sturdily. Apart from being exposed to wind and rain, it is really much better than those houses.
It’s okay to live in the cowshed in the summer, but I’m afraid it won’t be possible in the winter.
Doctor Bai can be moved out because of his medical skills, but what about the other people? If they are not moved out together, will they feel unfair? Will they report it when the people from the commune come?
If we move them out together, how should we accommodate them?
He planned to discuss it with the secretary and several team leaders.
Xie Chengxuan was also worried about what to do in the winter. It was too cold in the cowshed in winter. His master was sick last year, and his health has not been very good this year. If he got sick again this winter, he was afraid that his master would not be able to hold on.
Although there are sheep in the cowshed and I can sleep with them at night, what about during the day? Won’t I still suffer from the cold?
He really wanted to go to Qin Wangshu to discuss it again, after all, it was she who gave him the idea before, but he immediately gave up the idea.
He couldn't go to Qin Wangshu every time he encountered a problem. She was very smart, but she didn't owe him anything. Instead, he owed her anything. How could he keep bothering her?
Xie Chengxuan planned to find a way to help his master himself. If that didn't work, he would reveal his relationship with his master to the captain, hoping that he could help cover it up.
Things soon took a turn for the better. The person in the commune who had been targeting Master and his colleagues was about to be transferred away.
Xie Chengxuan heard this news. After he came here, he realized that his master and his colleagues were being targeted, which was why their lives were becoming somewhat difficult.
The people in Qianshan Brigade were still very simple and honest. No one bothered the people who were sent down from the cowshed. The reason why my master and his people had a hard time was because someone in the commune had always been targeting them.
This made it impossible for the captain and his men to take care of the people in the bullpen, and all they could do was ignore them.
However, the team leader still gave them work points for their work, but only half of what ordinary members received. They were also given food rations every time, but they were given coarse grains and no fine grains.
