"Well, I hope you really know what you're doing."

Su Mengyao spoke in a cold voice. She picked up the book she had put down and ignored Lu Ye.

Lu Ye put the bag down.

"Use your wash basin."

Lu Ye took it and used it without waiting for Su Mengyao's consent.

Su Mengyao was still angry and didn't want to talk to Lu Ye.

Lu Ye poured a small amount of the sesame seeds he bought cheaply into a basin and added water to wash them.

After washing away most of the vinegar from the sesame seeds, Lu Ye opened the bag of baking soda, poured it on the sesame seeds and began to stir.

Su Mengyao glanced over from time to time. Seeing Lu Ye washing the sesame seeds with baking soda, she thought to herself, "He even knows about acid-base neutralization? No way, he didn't even finish elementary school, how could he know that? Someone must have told him this folk remedy."

Lu Ye rinsed it twice with baking soda and then rinsed it twice more.

The sesame seeds that were originally soaked in vinegar have returned to their original appearance.

Lu Ye added clean water to soak the sesame seeds.

Then he left the house, cleaned the stone mill under the wall, and moved it into the house.

Su Mengyao sat on the kang, her beautiful eyes moving, watching Lu Ye struggling to move a stone mill as big as a washbasin. She didn't want to help or ask, so she just let Lu Ye do it.

Lu Ye lit the stove.

Stir-fry the soaked sesame seeds carefully to slowly remove the moisture inside.

Su Mengyao sat inside the house.

The aroma of sesame wafted into her nose.

At first she didn't care, but as the fragrance grew stronger, her tongue reacted first.

Gudong...

Su Mengyao swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

I couldn't read a single word of the book in my hand.

Lu Ye kept stir-frying the sesame seeds in the pot while controlling the heat in the stove, carefully preventing them from getting burnt.

"You're frying sesame seeds. Are you going to make sesame cakes?"

A cool voice sounded.

It was Su Mengyao who couldn't resist the fragrance and walked out of the house.

"If you want to eat, come and help."

"You stir-fry on top, and I control the fire from below."

Lu Ye handed the spatula in his hand to Su Mengyao.

Seeing that Su Mengyao didn't move, Lu Ye asked again: "Do you want to eat?"

Looking at Lu Ye's indifferent face, Su Mengyao felt an inexplicable anger in her heart.

"It was me who gave you the money."

"You pay, I run the errands. We work together, we eat together. It's fair."

Lu Ye pushed the spatula in his hand forward again.

Su Mengyao took the spatula and really wanted to swing it on Lu Ye's head.

But the fragrance went straight into my nose.

It had been a long time since she had eaten something so delicious.

"Just fry it..." Su Mengyao squatted aside, constantly stirring the sesame seeds in the pot.

Lu Ye watched the heat.

For a moment, the two of them cooperated with each other very well.

When the sesame seeds in the pot were thoroughly fried and turned yellow, Lu Ye quickly turned off the heat and poured all the sesame seeds back into the basin.

"I'll give you a task."

"what?"

"Use this to grind all the sesame seeds into powder. The finer the better."

Lu Ye washed himself and laid himself out, then looked at Su Mengyao.

Su Mengyao was stunned: "You want me to use this to grind it into ingredients?"

"Yes, if you want to eat sesame cakes, hurry up and get them. I have to go out for something." Lu Ye stuffed the handle of the millstone into Su Mengyao's hand.

Without waiting for her to object, he slipped out the door.

"This guy!"

Su Mengyao wanted to throw the handle in her hand away, but after looking at the golden sesame seeds, she decided not to throw it away.

Pour some roasted sesame seeds into the stone mill, Su Mengyao holds the handle and grinds it round and round.

After only a dozen or so laps, she felt her hands starting to ache.

Looking at the sesame powder in the stone trough, there is very little. It is hard to say how many rounds it will take to grind all the sesame seeds in the basin into powder.

"Why am I so stupid as to listen to him?"

Su Mengyao looked at the bag of flour placed at the end of the kang.

I couldn't help but smile.

After Lu Ye went out, he went straight to the clinic.

Dongsheng Village is lucky because it is located between the two administrative villages of Shangen and Huangniba, so the township has placed its only health center in Dongsheng Village.

The other two villages were extremely envious.

There is a doctor in his thirties in the clinic named Zhang Hongwei. More than ten years ago, he responded to the call and taught himself some medical and health knowledge and simple disease diagnosis and treatment knowledge. Before he was twenty years old, he became a barefoot doctor and traveled around the villages to treat patients.

Later, he was recommended by the commune and studied in the county hospital for two months.

After that, he became a glorious doctor stationed in the village clinic.

The house was painted white, and a white-painted wooden board with a red cross hung on the eaves.

Lu Ye pushed the door open and walked in.

"Uncle Zhang."

"It's you! You're so lucky! You married Su Zhiqing without spending a penny."

"There are a lot more patients coming to me today than usual. I see they all have pink eye, haha..."

Zhang Hongwei is a cheerful person who always likes to talk and laugh. He is very popular in the village.

"You just got married, why are you coming to my place instead of staying at home with your beautiful wife?"

"Uncle Zhang, I want to ask you for a few IV bottles."

"Okay, I'll get it for you."

Zhang Hongwu was very happy. He got up and went to the pharmacy in the back and took out a few empty IV bottles.

"These are the only ones left. If you want them, I'll give them all to you."

There were five empty IV bottles in total, two large and three small, all with rubber caps still on them.

The countryside is poor and supplies are scarce.

Many families in rural areas use this kind of drip to store oil, and it is especially convenient to use with a rubber cover.

There are also many people who come here to ask for IV bottles.

Later, some people started collecting this thing and selling it for money, but many health centers and small clinics were unwilling to sell it to people anymore.

Lu Ye put the three small bottles into his pockets, and the remaining two large bottles were just enough for one in each hand.

"Thank you, Uncle Zhang."

After taking the bottle, Lu Ye thanked him with a smile and turned to leave.

Zhang Hongwei smiled and shouted, "Pay attention to hygiene, wash yourself well before going to bed at night..."

Lu Ye: -_-!!!

When she got home, Su Mengyao was not grinding sesame seeds there.

Instead, he made two bowls of noodles and was waiting for them to rise.

"That thing is too heavy, I can't move it." Seeing Lu Ye coming back, Su Mengyao said lightly.

Lu Ye looked at the stone mill that was as big as a washbasin. It was really a bit difficult for Su Mengyao, who had thin arms and legs, to grind sesame seeds.

"I'll do it, you go wash these bottles."

Lu Ye took out the IV bottle.

"Why do you like to order people around so much? Why don't you wash yourself?" Su Mengyao frowned slightly. She really didn't like Lu Ye being like this, always asking her to do this and that.

"I don't keep idle people in this house."

Lu Ye sat in front of the stone mill and began to grind sesame seeds in circles.

Su Mengyao was choked by Lu Ye's words and was speechless. She picked up the bottles and went to the kitchen to wash them.
