Eating melons

"Xiao family boy, come in quickly. It's so windy, why are you here at this time?"

"I came to see if you guys need any help. Since the situation is so bad, I can't come over for a while, so I came to give you some things."

After saying that, he put the bag on the ground.

Chen Fuan was quite touched when he heard this. He thought something happened to him, but he just came to check on their situation. It must have been hard for him to come here in the middle of the night in the wind and snow.

"We're doing fine here. With the things you sent us, we don't need anything."

You should know that Xiao Xuemu comes here once a month and brings some food, clothes and daily necessities.

Because of their status, the food they exchanged for their work points were all coarse grains.

Therefore, Xiao Xuemu would send some fine grains and meat every month.

Not only that, some time ago we also gave them some cotton, which was obviously new cotton, and some homespun cloth, which was also obviously new.

Each of them was given an old cotton-padded jacket, and together with the ones given last year, they had no problem keeping warm.

So they really don't lack anything, and there is more than enough food this year.

Xiao Xuemu nodded, "It's okay, there are some food and some medicinal herbs in here.

These three packets are fever-reducing herbs, and these five packets are cough-relieving herbs. They're already prepared. If you have any questions about taking them, please let Mr. Xu take a look first."

Although the dosage he prescribed was normal, it was medicine, and taking medicine should be tailored to the individual, so he would feel more at ease if he asked Xu Yingqiu to take a look at it.

"That big bundle contains some scattered medicinal herbs. I don't know if you can use them. Although I hope you don't need them, it's better to have some on hand just in case."

He also put a low-year-old ginseng in it, but he didn't tell them about it. Anyway, they would be able to see it when they opened it.

He took out a small paper bag from his pocket and stuffed it into Chen Fuan's hand.

"Here are a few Western medicine pills, also for fever reduction. Western medicine works faster than Chinese medicine, so keep them safe.

With such heavy snow and wind, these medicinal herbs must not get wet.

There will definitely be a lot of people coming to clear the snow tomorrow. With so many people coming and going, you must hide these herbs well and don't let anyone see them, especially these Western medicines."

You have to know that Western medicine is scarce, not to mention in the Red Star Brigade, even in the county town.

If Chinese medicine is accidentally seen by someone, it can be explained a little more clearly, but if Western medicine is seen by someone, it is difficult to explain.

Although they have doctors here, it is useless without medicine.

With such strong wind and snow, and such low temperature, the conditions in the cowshed are so severe, and these people are old, weak, and have poor physical resistance.

Therefore, we should make some preparations in such extreme weather, just in case.

Seeing that Xiao Xuemu was so well prepared and even got them Western medicine, the people in the cowshed felt mixed emotions.

They were strangers to Xiao Xuemu. Because of a reminder from his elders, he was asked to pay attention to his old friends. Even though these people had no relationship with him, they were still caring for him. However, some of his own ungrateful people...

Many people felt depressed when they thought of this, but they were undoubtedly grateful to Xiao Xuemu.

Faced with such weather, the people the entire Red Star Brigade is most worried about are these people.

The weather was just as bad in the past two years. Because there were no medicinal herbs and the mountains were blocked by heavy snow, people couldn't get out. Several people had already died of colds.

Therefore, when they saw such snow and wind this year, they broke out in cold sweats, fearing that they would not be able to withstand it and survive.

With Xiao Xuemu's medicinal herbs, their lives are undoubtedly protected.

Xiao Xuemu took out a cloth bag from his pocket and handed it to Xu Yingqiu.

"Mr. Xu, this is a set of silver needles. You must hide it well and don't let anyone find it."

Although this thing is not explicitly prohibited, Xu Yingqiu's identity is different, so the nature of finding this on him is different.

As for why this thing was given to Xu Yingqiu, it was because Xu Yingqiu was an old Chinese doctor. With the silver needles in hand, it also provided a layer of protection for this group of people.

Without tools and medicinal herbs, even if Xu Yingqiu's medical skills were great, they would be useless.

Hearing this, Xu Yingqiu immediately opened the cloth bag in his hand. When he saw the silver needle inside, he knew that Xiao Xuemu must have put a lot of effort into it.

With his keen eyesight, he could tell at a glance that this was a top-quality silver needle.

He really didn't expect that he would be able to touch this thing in this life.

"I will remember your kindness, old man. If I need you in the future, just come and help me."

Xiao Xuemu waved his hand and said, "Mr. Xu, you're too polite. It's just a small favor. If I need your help, I won't hesitate."

There are only advantages and no disadvantages in being on good terms with a doctor, let alone a doctor with excellent medical skills.

This silver needle might indeed be precious. He asked Wei Wei to buy it from her system mall, so it was easy for him to buy it.

Western medicine was also purchased in Wei Wei’s system mall.

Wei Wei prepared some emergency medicines in his space, one for the future and one for this era.

Seeing those medicines, he asked Wei Wei to help him prepare some more antipyretics and anti-inflammatory drugs of this era, just in case.

Even the Chinese medicines were bought in Wei Wei's system mall.

Because the medicinal herbs planted in his space are all fresh, wet and unprocessed.

The system sold to Wei Wei was sold directly after being picked without any processing.

Because it is too troublesome to handle medicinal materials, he does not have that much time and energy.

"Everything is here, keep it safe. If you're all right, I'll leave first. Otherwise, we won't be able to leave if the wind gets stronger."

After hearing this, Chen Fuan and Xu Yingqiu did not stay and told him to be careful and go back quickly.

After all, the wind is getting stronger and stronger. If we don’t leave now, it may be dangerous to go back later.

As soon as Xiao Xuemu left, the cowshed became busy and several people quickly hid the things separately.

Especially these medicinal herbs and silver needles, they must be hidden well, they are life-saving things.

Xiao Xuemu's arrival dispelled the gloomy, numb, and even somewhat desperate atmosphere that had been shrouding the cowshed since the blizzard began.

Ever since seeing the snowstorm, the air pressure in the bullpen has been very low, and everyone is shrouded in an atmosphere of sadness.

They know their own bodies, and no one can guarantee that they will not get sick in such bad weather.

They are already old and their physical fitness is not that good.

Before coming to the Red Star Brigade, some people had suffered a lot in the city, and their physical condition had become even worse.

The conditions in the cowshed were just like that. They had to clear the land and work, so they didn't have much time to chop wood.

It would be easy to get into trouble if they went to buy firewood with their identities.

Therefore, they were very tight on firewood. It was only in the past two years that Xiao Xuemu secretly sent them several carts of firewood, which is why they did not get sick last winter.

But looking at the weather this year, we don’t know how long it will last, and the firewood we have may not be enough, so we have to burn it sparingly.

If you get sick, even though they have doctors here, they don't have tools or medicine, so it's useless. The mountain is blocked by heavy snow and you can't get out, so you can only wait to die.

But things are different with the things Xiao Xuemu sent.

As long as they have either medicinal herbs or silver needles, their lives will be guaranteed.

Therefore, the low pressure that shrouded the bullpen was dispelled with the arrival of Xiao Xuemu.

Everyone had a smile on their face, especially Xu Yingqiu, who was reluctant to put down his silver needle.

But for everyone's safety, it must be hidden well, so the silver needle was carefully hidden.

Now Xu Yingqiu finally breathed a sigh of relief. God knew how much pressure he was under and how depressed he was.

I am a doctor, but I have all the medical skills but I can't save my companions. How desperate I feel.

No one knows the physical fitness of the people here better than him. They are all suffering from qi deficiency and malnutrition. Such people are most likely to catch a cold in this winter.

It was only in the past two years that things got a little better with the help of Xiao Xuemu. In the past few years, he not only had to deal with his companions being sick and unable to save them despite his medical skills, but also had shortages of firewood and food, which really threatened his life.
