Chapter 62: Giving Medicine to the Wounded and Boiling Water for Bath

"Third brother, I still have five doses of medicine left. Take them to the front yard and share them with everyone! And as for this ginseng, have the aunts and sisters-in-law simmer it in chicken soup. Whether everyone can make it through this depends on them."

Back in the room, Lin Qingxue thought of the wounded waiting to die in the hall in the front yard. She felt increasingly uneasy, so she secretly transferred five doses of medicine and a ginseng from the space, and gave them to Lin Qingran, asking him to deliver them to the front yard.

"Got it, Qingxue, it's getting late, you should lie down and rest!"

Lin Qingran nodded. He knew that his sister was reluctant to leave those people, but she was more worried that after the medicine was taken out, her family members would be injured and have no medicine to use before they reached the next city.

Everyone else in the family knew this, so no one asked her to get the medicine. Even Old Man Lin and the others only asked her to get pheasants and rabbits from the space so that everyone could have a meal of meat before they died.

Lin Qingxue nodded. Although she was not sleepy, it was so late and there was nothing else to do if she didn't sleep. As she thought about this and that, she gradually fell asleep.

After daybreak, Lin Qingxue was awakened by the noise. It turned out that Lin Qingran had delivered the medicine to the front yard last night and immediately used it on the fifty-eight people.

Last night, those people were treated by a doctor in the village who used a knife to burn red fire to cut off the pus-filled flesh. They could only hold on, and whether they could survive depended on themselves.

With the wound medicine and hemostatic medicine sent by Lin Qingran, these fifty-eight villagers all survived last night. Although their faces still looked ugly, their chances of survival increased.

So early in the morning, each family brought some food from their own homes, whether it was rice, dried vegetables, bacon, etc. The mothers and daughters-in-law of the fifty-eight people added the ingredients contributed by each family into the chicken soup, making it into a big pot of stew, and each family got a bowl.

Lin Qingxue was woken up by the sound of everyone distributing food. After she finished washing up, she saw Aunt Lin coming back with a big bowl of hodgepodge food.

"Qingxue is awake now. The chicken soup you brought back last night has just been made in the front yard. The other families also brought some ingredients from their homes and stewed three pots of hodgepodge together. We each got a bowl. Come and have some."

Aunt Lin started to share the food with everyone. Just one bowl was definitely not enough for everyone to eat, so Li Yanniang and the others also made breakfast, and everyone shared some, just to show their appreciation.

"How are the injured? Are they all right?" Seeing Aunt Lin and the others looking happy, Lin Qingxue asked in a low voice.

"All right, everything's fine! Everyone's made it through, and the wounds aren't as red anymore. They all know you gave them the medicine, and they're all grateful to you!"

Aunt Lin said with a smile, it can be seen that everyone is in a good mood, and everyone has a smile and a hint of relaxation on their face.

"They don't need to be grateful. It's not easy for everyone on the road of fleeing famine. If you can help, then help. If you can't help, there's nothing we can do," Lin Qingxue shook her head and said calmly.

Her wound has almost healed. She applies medicine every day and is careful not to let the wound become inflamed or fester, otherwise it would not have healed so quickly.

"Everyone, take a good rest these few days. Once the wounded have recovered, it's time to set off. My dear sisters-in-law, please take advantage of these few days to boil some hot water so that the children can have a good bath. Then, take the time to prepare some dry food."

Mrs. Lin and Old Man Lin sat nearby, looking at the smiling faces of the children. Although their lives were difficult now, at least the whole family was together and living well, and they were content.

Seeing those refugees, Mrs. Lin was very glad that their entire village had come out to escape the famine, otherwise they would have ended up like the refugees, either being mutilated or having their families destroyed.

"I understand, grandma," Li Yanniang and the other two looked at each other and responded in unison.

Of course, they understood what Mrs. Lin meant. She just wanted the men in the family to fetch some water just to make it look like they were doing something.

Then let everyone in the family take a good bath, and make some dry food that is convenient to eat on the road and can be stored for a long time.

After breakfast, Li Yanniang, her three sisters-in-law, Fang Xiaomei, and Liu's eldest wife started to get busy. They took their men to fetch water or boil water.

Aunt Lin and Mrs. Lin were also busy. They sorted out everyone's luggage, took out everyone's spare clothes, and packed a set of clothes for the Liu family so that they would have no clothes to change after taking a shower.

Soon, Lin Qingming and his brothers brought back the water, which was already heated.

In order to make bathing convenient, the brothers Lin Qingbai and Lin Qingming built a simple bathroom with wooden boards in the yard. The Lin family members took turns to bathe in it, and the water was used to wash clothes.

By the time everyone had finished cleaning up, it was already noon. Li Yanniang and the others asked Lin Xiaoshan to set up the dining table and brought the chicken soup that had been simmering over a low fire to the table. The staple food was steamed buns, which were being steamed while the water was boiling.

"Everyone, come over and have lunch," Li Yanniang called out, and everyone went to have lunch on their own initiative.

A small bowl of chicken soup was given to the children and Liu Er's wife, the pregnant woman, and the rest was given to the injured Lin Qingxue, who also had about a small bowl.

After eating and drinking, Li Yanniang, her three sisters-in-law, and Fang Xiaomei, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, went to wash clothes. When other villagers saw the Lin family doing this, they also followed suit and started fetching water, boiling water, and taking a bath.

After resting for more than half an hour, Lin Qingxue called Lin Xiaoshan and the others to the yard and began to teach them sword skills. She didn't teach them anything else, just asked them to draw their swords and chop the air quickly and with force.

Although practicing sword is boring, thinking that they can protect their families after practicing, none of Lin Xiaoshan and the others slacked off. Even the youngest Lin Xiaowan practiced very hard.

"Watch carefully," Lin Qingxue moved a chair and sat under the eaves, watching the children practice with interest and saying a few words of encouragement from time to time.

Sitting next to her were Old Man Lin and Mrs. Lin. The two of them had nothing to do, so they followed Lin Qingxue's example and watched their great-grandsons practice sword skills.

Thinking of the tattered clothes everyone was wearing, Lin Qingxue remembered the cloth she had bought before. She had originally planned to make clothes for everyone, but she had no time to do it along the way.

There should be time now, which is just right to find something for Aunt Lin and the others to do. Thinking of this, Lin Qingxue found two pieces of coarse cloth and two pieces of cotton cloth from the space, and planned to give them to Aunt Lin and the others in the evening, so that they can start making clothes for everyone tomorrow.
