Quick Wear Dream Qiqi

The morning light penetrated the window frames covered with oil paper, and Meng Qiqi woke up to the pungent smell of mold.

The rough linen quilt brushed against her cheek, and she subconsciously reached for the cell phone beside her pillow, but only touched a cold ceramic bowl.

The system's mechanical voice sounded at the right moment: "Welcome to the world of 'Farm Girl Has Space'. You are the six-year-old Meng Qiqi, the younger sister of the heroine Meng Yuyu. The original owner died of diarrhea after stealing rotten rice."

Suddenly, there was a sound of something heavy hitting the mud wall, followed by a sharp curse: "You money-loser! Why don't you get up and cut grass for the pigs?"

Meng Qiqi shuddered, and memories came flooding back.

The original owner's family of seven squeezed into three dilapidated adobe houses. Her grandmother favored boys over girls. After her mother died early, her ten-year-old sister Meng Yuyu and she did not have enough food to eat all year round and had to do all the dirty work.

"Er Ya! Are you deaf?" The wooden door was roughly pushed open, and an old lady in patched clothes rushed in, holding a bamboo broom, her cloudy eyes staring at the ceramic bowl on the bed, "Well, you dare to hide corn paste!"

The bamboo broom came down on her head, and Meng Qiqi screamed and rolled under the bed, her forehead hitting the cracks between the bricks.

At this moment, a clear female voice rang out: "Grandma, I found a fish by the river!"

Meng Yuyu appeared at the door carrying a wet bamboo basket, with water plants still stuck to her pigtails.

The old lady's bamboo broom immediately turned and said, "Just two small fish? Are they enough for your brother?"

She grabbed the bamboo basket and crushed Meng Qiqi's fingers with her shoe sole. "Hurry up and cook the pig food!"

The severe pain made Meng Qiqi's eyes red, but she saw Meng Yuyu squat down, took out a warm sweet potato from her lapel and put it in her palm: "Don't be afraid, sister will protect you."

The girl's palms were covered with chilblains, but she broke off the fullest part of the sweet potato.

The system prompt suddenly flashed: "Detected the heroine's special ability - modern medical knowledge and elementary space, current favorability 15/100."

In front of the stove, Meng Qiqi stood on tiptoe to add wild vegetables into the pot.

The firelight reflected her sister's busy back. Meng Yuyu was grinding herbs with a stone. She earned them by secretly treating the hunters in the village.

Suddenly, there was a cry outside the courtyard: "Old Zhao's son was bitten by a snake!" The old lady immediately pushed Meng Yuyu: "Go and see him quickly. If you can cure him, come back and ask for two copper coins!"

Meng Qiqi curled up beside the stove and watched her sister Meng Yuyu being pushed out the door by her grandmother.

The flames in the stove crackled, making the wound on her forehead sting even more.

She touched the sweet potato in her palm, which was still warm. This was the first warmth she received since she came to this world.

"System, what is the task?" she asked in a low voice.

“Main Quest: Assist the heroine Meng Yuyu in establishing a rural medical system, improve her family’s plight, and at the same time, increase the heroine’s favorability to 100/100.

Side Quest: Improve your own living conditions and avoid the original owner's fate of premature death. "The system's mechanical voice rang out in my mind.

Meng Qiqi took a bite of the sweet potato, and the sweet taste seemed to dispel some of her fear.

It seems that if you want to win easily in this world, you must hold on to your sister's thighs tightly.

Just as I was thinking about it, there was suddenly a noise outside the yard.

"That's her! A little girl, and she dares to say she can cure snake venom?"

"Don't be fooled, Mr. Zhao. This is playing with human lives!"

Meng Qiqi's heart tightened, and she lifted the lid of the pot and ran out.

Meng Yuyu was surrounded by several villagers, her face pale but her eyes determined.

A young boy was lying on the ground, his calf swollen and purple, obviously bitten by a poisonous snake.

"Let me try!" Meng Yuyu said as she was about to squat down to check the wound.

"No!" Aunt Zhao pushed her away. "Can you bear the consequences if something happens?"

At this moment, Meng Qiqi suddenly rushed forward and grabbed Aunt Zhao's clothes: "Aunt, my sister just cured Hunter Wang's dog yesterday! The dog was bitten by a wolf and its intestines were exposed. Now it is alive and kicking!"

When these words were spoken, everyone was stunned.

Meng Yuyu looked at her sister in surprise, with a hint of relief in her eyes.

She took the opportunity to squat down and quickly took out a few herbs from her arms: "This is seven-leafed aconite, which can cure snake venom. First, use a knife to cut the wound and squeeze out the poisonous blood..."

"What do you know!" Aunt Zhao tried to stop her, but was stopped by Old Zhao: "Let's try it out!"

Seeing this, Meng Qiqi immediately ran to the well to fetch a bucket of water and took a kitchen knife.

She washed the kitchen knife with well water, just like in modern TV dramas, and then handed it to her sister.

Meng Yuyu took the knife, but her hands were shaking.

Although she had some medical knowledge, this was her first time saving someone.

Meng Qiqi suddenly held her hand: "Sister, I believe you!"

These words seemed to give Meng Yuyu strength.

She took a deep breath, quickly cut open the wound, squeezed out the dark purple poisonous blood, and then applied herbs on the wound.

The whole process was so smooth that everyone was stunned.

"Okay, drink another bowl of detoxifying soup and you'll be able to get out of bed in three days." Meng Yuyu wiped the sweat from her forehead.

Old Zhao kowtowed excitedly: "Thank you! Thank you! Here are two copper coins, please keep them!"

The villagers who were watching also came over and said, "Meng girl, my child's cough keeps getting worse, can you take a look at him?"

"My back pain..."

Meng Qiqi looked at her sister surrounded by the crowd and suddenly had an idea.

She climbed up the millstone in the yard and shouted, "Everyone line up! My sister won't charge for the treatment, but she has to help us with chores afterward!"

"Okay! No problem!" the villagers responded in unison.

In this way, a long line formed in the Meng family's yard.

Meng Yuyu was busy seeing patients, while Meng Qiqi was responsible for registering their conditions and getting herbal remedies.

She found a small cloth bag hidden in her sister's lapel, which contained various herbs. It was obviously the primary space mentioned by the system.

As the sun set, the yard was filled with food, vegetables, and several bundles of freshly chopped firewood sent by the villagers.

The old lady couldn't stop smiling, and for the first time ever she stopped beating or scolding the two sisters.

"Sister, you are so awesome!" Meng Qiqi handed over a bowl of cold water, her eyes sparkling.

Meng Yuyu touched her head: "Thanks to you. By the way, your wound..."

She took out some herbs from the space and carefully applied them to Meng Qiqi, "Don't get hurt again in the future."

The system prompt sounded at the right time: "Heroine's Favorability +20, currently 35/100."

At night, the two sisters squeezed into one bed.

Meng Qiqi listened to her sister's even breathing and quietly opened the system panel.

In addition to favorability, there is also a "reputation value" that is constantly rising.

The next morning, Meng Qiqi was awakened by the crowing of a rooster.

She rubbed her eyes and found that her sister was gone.

When I opened the door, I saw Meng Yuyu teaching a few children to identify herbs.

"Sister, I want to learn too!" Meng Qiqi ran over.

"Okay." Meng Yuyu smiled and nodded. "This is Perilla, which can dispel cold and relieve exterior symptoms. This is Dandelion, which can clear away heat and detoxify..."

At this moment, the village head came hurriedly and said, "Meng girl, the county magistrate's wife is having a difficult labor, please go and take a look!"

Meng Qiqi's heart was in her throat. In ancient times, difficult childbirth was a matter of life and death. Could her sister handle it?

Meng Yuyu was surprisingly calm: "Qiqi, you stay at home. I'll be back soon."

"I want to go too!" Meng Qiqi grabbed the corner of her clothes, "I can help!"

Meng Yuyu hesitated for a moment and finally nodded.

The two followed the village head and jogged all the way to the county town.

Inside the Zhao Mansion in the county town, cries and shouts were heard one after another.

The county magistrate was so anxious that he said, "Quick! Go get the midwife!"

"No need." Meng Yuyu squeezed into the room, "I can deliver the baby."

The midwife sneered: "You are just a yellow-haired girl, what do you know about delivering a baby?"

Meng Qiqi put her hands on her hips and retorted, "My sister can even detoxify snake venom, so she can definitely deliver babies!"

The county magistrate was desperate and tried all kinds of remedies. He waved his hand and said, "Let her try!"

Meng Yuyu took a deep breath and began to direct: "Boil some water, prepare some clean cotton cloth, and get some scissors!"

Meng Qiqi immediately took action, boiling water, cutting cloth, and even roasting the scissors over the fire again and again according to modern disinfection methods.

In the delivery room, Meng Yuyu comforted the lady in pain and guided her to push.

Her clothes were soaked with sweat, but her eyes were extremely determined.

“The head is coming out! Push harder!”

With a cry, the baby was born safely.

The county magistrate was so excited that he burst into tears: "It's a boy! Thank you, doctor! Thank you so much!"

The midwife's face turned red and she retreated in shame.

The county magistrate wanted to reward her handsomely, but Meng Yuyu declined. "I just hope the county magistrate can allocate some money to build a clinic in the village."

"Okay! Okay!" the county magistrate agreed readily. "I'll send someone to do it tomorrow!"

On the way back, Meng Qiqi jumped up and down: "Sister, you are so amazing! From now on, we can treat patients openly!"

Meng Yuyu smiled and scratched her nose: "You are a big help."

The system prompt sounded again: "Heroine's favorability +30, currently 65/100.

Reputation value exceeds 1000, unlocking new skills: Basic Pharmacology Knowledge.

Meng Yuyu clutched the document personally approved by the county magistrate, her fingertips turning white from the force.

The midwife's words, "This ignorant little girl will sooner or later bring trouble to the whole family," are still echoing in my ears.

She turned to look at Meng Qiqi beside her. Her six-year-old sister was standing on tiptoe to wipe off the grass debris on her skirt. The moonlight made her eyes shine surprisingly brightly.

"Sister, they will definitely make a fuss." Meng Qiqi suddenly spoke, her voice steady and unmatched for her age. "How about we..." She lowered her voice and whispered a few words in Meng Yuyu's ear, startling the girl so much that the document in her hand almost slipped.

The night wind, wrapped in the fragrance of locust flowers, swept through the adobe house. Old lady Wang Cuihua banged her pipe heavily on the doorstep: "This is outrageous! Delivering the county magistrate's wife? How can we ordinary people do this?"

Her cloudy eyes glared at the two sisters who had just entered the house, "What if the Zhao family blames us, won't our Meng family be in trouble?"

Meng Yuyu placed the document on the table and said calmly, "Grandma, the county magistrate fined us twenty taels of silver and also said he would build a clinic in the village."

"Silver?" Wang Cuihua's pipe trembled. "That would bring disaster!" She suddenly grabbed the rolling pin behind the door. "It's all your fault, you jinx! You insist on being in the spotlight! Tomorrow I'll ask the village chief to remove you two sisters from the family tree!"

Meng Qiqi suddenly burst into tears and tugged at her father Meng Deshun's clothes: "Dad, I don't want to be driven away! I'm here to make money for the family!"

Her crying startled her stepmother, Mrs. Li, who was in the inner room. She came out holding her three-year-old son Meng Jinbao, with a calculating glint in her eyes.

"Grandma, how about..." Mrs. Li said timidly, "Just let them go separately? They can't help the family in any way."

Wang Cuihua slammed her rolling pin to the ground. "Divide! Divide immediately!"

She pulled over a torn sack from the corner and threw two chipped ceramic bowls and half a bag of moldy brown rice over. "Take these and get out! Don't drag us down with you if you die of starvation or illness!"

Meng Yuyu bent down to pick up the pottery bowl, and the moonlight shone on the back of her clenched hands.

She had expected this result, but she didn't expect that even her biological father didn't try to stop her.

When the village chief and the village head came to write the letter of separation, Meng Deshun kept his head down and only said one sentence when he pressed his fingerprint: "From now on... take care of yourself."

After the family division, the two sisters temporarily lived in an abandoned land temple at the entrance of the village.

The autumn night wind came in through the cracks in the wall. Meng Qiqi curled up on the straw pile, watching her sister writing and drawing on the ground with the branches she had picked up.

The moonlight shone through the broken window lattice onto the county magistrate's handwritten note that Meng Yuyu unfolded. The four big words "Huimin Medical Clinic" made her eyes shine.

"Sister, shall we go dig herbs tomorrow?" Meng Qiqi wrapped herself tightly in her patched coarse cloth. "The Bupleurum chinense in the back mountain is ripe now."

Meng Yuyu touched the tip of her nose, which was red from the cold. "Let's go pick up some broken porcelain pieces first. We're going to make cupping."

She pulled out a black object from her bosom. "This is the lard I begged from the Zhao family's kitchen today. It can be used to make an oil lamp."

For the next half month, the two sisters were like two tireless swallows.

During the day, Meng Yuyu took Meng Qiqi to the mountains to identify medicinal herbs. Meng Qiqi carried a bamboo basket taller than her on her little arm. At night, the oil lamps in the land temple were often lit until three o'clock in the morning. Meng Yuyu used red-hot iron wire to burn holes in bamboo tubes to make moxibustion instruments.

"Qiqi, try this." Meng Yuyu handed the newly made bamboo tweezers to her sister, "Be steady when picking up the herbs."

She taught Meng Qiqi how to identify medicinal herbs. "This is angelica, the cross section is yellow-brown and has a fragrance. This is fangfeng, the root has earthworm heads..."

A month later, the village clinic was built.

When the plaque of Huimin Medical Clinic was hung up, golden ginkgo leaves were falling.

The adobe house was renovated, and a human meridian map hand-painted by Meng Yuyu was pasted on the whitewashed wall.

Meng Qiqi stood behind the counter, her abacus clacking away, and the account book in front of her was neatly recorded: Aunt Zhang prescribed three grams of medicine, which was equivalent to two bundles of firewood; Mr. Liu examined her and gave her a handwritten copy of "Compendium of Materia Medica".

"Dr. Meng! My calf is eating the wrong grass!"

"Ms. Meng, I have a migraine..."

People came and went in the clinic, and Meng Yuyu's reputation spread farther and farther.

She not only treated people, but also thought about treating livestock. She used modern veterinary knowledge to save several cows in the village that were suffering from difficult labor.

Meng Qiqi became the housekeeper. Not only could she dispense medicine accurately, she also learned to fumigate the house with herbs to repel insects and make vinegar with wild fruits.

At noon that day, Meng Qiqi was standing on tiptoe to hang dried mugwort on the beams of the house when she suddenly heard a familiar voice outside the yard yelling, "You money-loser! Now that you've made money, you don't recognize your ancestors?"

Wang Cuihua rushed in with a jujube wood crutch, followed by the drooping Meng Deshun.

Li hid in the corner holding Jinbao, but her eyes were fixed on the ginseng in the medicine cabinet.

"Grandma, what are you talking about?" Meng Qiqi jumped off the stool and patted the counter with a feather duster. "You were the one who kicked us out in the first place."

She picked up the abacus and fiddled with it. "Oh, right, I fed the chickens the moldy half bag of brown rice I was given when the family was divided, and the rest..." She paused deliberately, "I cooked wild vegetable porridge for three days."

Wang Cuihua pointed her pipe at Meng Yuyu and said, "Don't think you're great just because you cured a few patients! The county magistrate will cause trouble for you sooner or later!"

Meng Yuyu came out of the inner room, holding a freshly boiled medicine soup in her hand: "If you have a headache, this Chuanxiong tea powder is just right."

She placed the medicine bowl on the table. "But according to the rules, you have to pay for the consultation."

"You!" Wang Cuihua slammed her cane against the ground. "I'm your grandmother!"

"Grandma would feed Jinbao the life-saving sweet potatoes when we fainted from hunger?" Meng Qiqi suddenly spoke, her voice clear but every word sharp as a knife. "Grandma would let my sister fish for pig grass in ice water when she had a high fever?"

She lifted the counter, revealing the neatly stacked account books. "This is all the clean money we earned. Not a single penny is stained with mold."

Meng Deshun opened his mouth, but finally just sighed.

Li tried to reach for the medicine cabinet, but Meng Qiqi slammed the door shut. "Aunt, if you want some herbs, bring three loads of firewood in exchange."

Wang Cuihua turned around angrily, but tripped over the threshold.

Meng Qiqi quickly stepped forward to support her, saying with a half-smile, "Grandma, be careful. If you break something, we'll have to spend money to treat it."

After the group left in disgrace, Meng Yuyu looked at her sister's red eyes and hugged her in her arms: "Thank you for your hard work, Qiqi."

Meng Qiqi leaned on her sister's shoulder, listening to the familiar sound of her heartbeat: "As long as I can be with you, I'm not afraid of any difficult days."
