In the Middle Ages World, February 3rd, 0001, six days have passed since the cattle in the village were injured.
The sun had risen very high. To the north of the village, with its back against the hillside and the door of the wooden house facing the stream in front, Wu Qingchen vigorously waved his arms. Under the sweaty forehead, his immature face was full of helplessness.
"... No, no, no... Aunt Monia, the sickle must not work... I can't give the sickle to me, and there are still several pieces of pasture in your house that have not been mowed..."
"... no... no... this doesn't work either... the shovel is the same... without the shovel, there is no way to plow..."
"...Oh my God... Auntie, don't move the pot! I already have two pots in my house!"
"...don't... Auntie, put down the plow cart... no, don't push it over, I can't hold it!... Also, this is Uncle Oggy's plow cart..."
"What is this? Peas? So many peas... No... Don't stuff them in your clothes... Auntie, don't do this... Your clothes are going to tear!"
"Okay, okay, Aunt Monia, don't look around... Listen to me, listen to me!"
"... Aunt Monia, I know what you think, but I really can't take these things... yes, I can't take anything..."
"Auntie, in the village, your farm cattle are almost the most seriously injured. Although there is no danger now, it will take several days to fully recover. For such a long time, the farm cattle have not been able to go to the ground. Too much work was left behind...”
"Auntie, it will be very difficult for your family this year... At this time, I definitely can't accept your family's tools... let alone the food that you don't have enough for yourself... Let's keep this kind of heart for now... After a few years, wait for the situation Well, come to me again, and then I will charge as much as I can, but I can't do it now, I can't do it!"
Faced with such relief and rejection from Wu Qingchen, the peasant woman on the opposite side finally put down the pockets in her hands, her eyes filled with tears: "But... Luo Si... you have helped so much, no matter what, you can't do nothing. take away a little...
"Well... Actually, I also know that these days, you have never accepted anything from anyone in the village, and you will definitely not accept mine... This can only be blamed on me. Yesterday, and the day before yesterday, for two full days, I looked for I searched the whole village, but I couldn't find the red wild fruit you like to eat... "
Red wild fruit...
The muscles on Wu Qingchen's face twitched involuntarily, his expression froze for a moment, and he sighed leisurely after a long time.
"Oh, it's okay if you don't find it... later... later..."
"But... but..." probably misunderstood Wu Qingchen's regret, and hesitated for a long time, the peasant woman lowered her head slightly, her voice became smaller and smaller: "If you really don't accept anything... I will definitely be beaten when Aruba comes home. …”
"This… "
Wu Qingchen opened his eyes and looked around. After a while, he walked past the peasant woman sideways, walked into the small vegetable bed in front of the wooden house, picked and picked, and finally picked two small lettuce plants.
Holding a stalk of lettuce in one hand, Wu Qingchen turned around with a smile: "It's all right now, auntie, when Uncle Aruba comes home, you can tell him that when Ross left, both hands were full."
After finishing speaking, Wu Qingchen turned around, and the small figure gradually walked away.
Bathed in Monia's grateful eyes, and the sun shining on her body, Wu Qingchen's heart was full of heat...
irritable.
I!
Le!
indivual!
go!
Lao Tzu's red wild fruit...
The "red wild fruit" in Monia's mouth is a brightly colored, long and narrow, slightly curved shrub fruit. Like most wild fruits, this kind has not been cultivated or selected. Unimproved, uncared for, purely wild, purely natural wild fruit, put it in your mouth...
Naturally, it is sour and bitter, and I can't eat it at all...
Having this kind of pure nature, of course, must also be self-protection obtained by continuous evolution. For thousands of years, this fruit has been growing freely in the Middle Ages world. There are basically no living things, at least no mammals, until the arrival of Wu Qingchen , After the training of the teaching group, I learned that this kind of fruit can be processed into appropriate condiments after a certain simple treatment, adding a little flavor to grilled fish and barbecue.
----This is also the most important seasoning for Wu Qingchen's poaching.
Unfortunately, for a long time to come, this condiment is estimated to have to become history again.
The culprit was naturally Wu Qingchen.
In the past few days, whenever the cattle were cured for the villagers, the villagers always brought out their best food, seeds, tools, and even small livestock to express their gratitude, especially the cattle of Monia's family were seriously injured. The family, which had already given up much hope, was even more ecstatic, wishing to give everything they had, and offer all their belongings together.
Wu Qingchen did not accept any of these things. Starting from his heart, Wu Qingchen himself took a lot of credit for the injury of these cattle, and it was too late to feel guilty, so he was really embarrassed to accept the items from the villagers; I have repeatedly explained that there is no need for any hesitation in choosing these pitiful living objects, outdated and crude production tools, and the more lasting and deep gratitude of the villagers.
At the very beginning, Wu Qingchen had a hard time getting out of the villagers' homes when the cows were cured and they didn't collect anything. However, this situation continued for three or five families. After it spread in the village, the villagers began to get used to it, and Wu Qingchen refused. Also a lot easier.
The accident occurred on the third day, which was also in the west of the village. After curing the cattle for the Osis family and rejecting the pots and pans offered by the Osis family as usual, Wu Qingchen left the wooden house.
Not a few steps out of the wooden door, Wu Qingchen found a few red wild fruits on the side of the road, and picked them off. Osis, who was sending them out, felt a little strange, so he asked about its purpose, and Wu Qingchen answered casually that they could be eaten. .
Because of this question and answer, the red wild fruits in the village of Aikeli in the medieval world, even the graves of eighteen generations of ancestors, were buried in the cesspit, completely full of blood mold.
That afternoon, when Wu Qingchen arrived at another wooden house and was about to undergo another treatment, he walked in the wooden door. Before he had time to look at the injured cattle, his eyes, all eyes, were immediately filled with a whole patch of red. : On the low table in the middle of the wooden house, there is a bright red fruit mountain piled up high.
After that, it was the same for the four that arrived in a row that afternoon.
After that, it was the same for the seven families who arrived the next day.
After that there is no after.
Along the road, on the hillside, in the forest, in the following days, Wu Qingchen could no longer see any trace of red from the bushes growing red wild fruits.
At least the villagers are eager to collect them. There are several large baskets of red fruits. There are no refrigerators in the medieval world. It is summer, and several secret kitchens are close to water sources. The humidity and heat are mixed. If the fruits are piled up, they will go bad in a few days. Must use fresh red fruit...
All in all, for the next few days, Wu Qingchen, who was self-indulgent, could only continue to eat the basically tasteless grilled fish and barbecue.
Fifty-Nine Visitors (Medium)
Leaving Monia's house, it was almost noon, walking on the village path, Wu Qingchen picked some herbs along the smear.
After six consecutive days of treatment, most of the injured cattle in the village have recovered, and almost all of them can start farming again. Only a few cattle that were seriously injured like Monia's family still need to rest for a while.
By this time, Wu Qingchen actually didn't need much medicine. There were still a lot of herbs collected with Busser a few days ago, and most of them could be used. Only some that were not suitable for preservation needed to be replenished.
At this moment, the wooden basket that Wu Qingchen held up with his left hand was only covered with a shallow layer of these delicate herbs that were not suitable for preservation.
Since the young leaves of these flowers and plants are used, these plants cannot naturally be bumped and squeezed. Therefore, the herbs in the wooden basket are much less than usual, and Wu Qingchen has worked harder than usual to take care of them.
Along the way, Wu Qingchen stepped his legs carefully, his steps were very steady, his left hand was always slightly tilted, and the wooden basket he was holding steadily hardly shook...
----These are the same as usual----
However, the wooden bowl for healing, rags, grass balls, and the two lettuce picked by Monia's family had to be handed over to the right hand at this time.
Go around the stream from the north of the village, pass the stream, cross the woods, go back to the trail and pass through the village, and then go back to the east of the village. Wu Qingchen changed his left hand to his right hand when his left hand was tired, and continued to switch back to his left hand when his right hand was tired. All cramp.
After finally turning the last corner, his own wooden house appeared in front of him. Seeing the little Nina who was coming up quickly, Wu Qingchen finally breathed a sigh of relief. He quickly chose a clean grass and put down the wooden basket gently. As for the wooden bowl , rags, grass balls, and lettuce, which is the largest and most troublesome to lift, have long been thrown aside.
Noticing Wu Qingchen's movements, little Nina ran over a little faster, and a concerned voice came from afar: "Brother, what's the matter with you? Are you all right?"
"It's okay, there are too many things, it's inconvenient to hold, my hands are a little sore... you run slowly, don't fall..."
"OK… "
With such an answer in her mouth, little Nina still ran fast, and rushed to Wu Qingchen's side in a flash, stopped, little Nina looked at Wu Qingchen up and down carefully for a while, and found that there was nothing wrong Only then did he smile and look at the things laid down on both sides of the grass.
"Wow..." Seeing the lettuce, little Nina quickly yelled, "Brother, you told us not to accept the things from the neighbors, but you secretly brought back two lettuce..."
"Shh, keep your voice down!" Wu Qingchen hastily stretched out his hand, quickly covering Little Nina's mouth.
Thinking of this, Wu Qingchen felt a headache.
Little Nina was right. Wu Qingchen did tell his family not to accept all kinds of thank-you gifts from the villagers. This is almost the same as accepting it himself, or even worse.
Seeing the villagers chasing and intercepting Wu Qingchen, although they don't understand Wu Qingchen's real purpose, Wu Qingchen's parents and elder brothers are very clear that accepting the villagers' gifts, apart from causing Wu Qingchen trouble, also means that they have to agree The demands of this part of the villagers also mean that they have to reap the complaints of another part of the villagers.
With this understanding, neither William, Idra, Grace, Jacqueline, or little Nina have ever received anything from the villagers.
In other words, no matter what William, Idra, Grace, Jacqueline, and little Nina can do, they can only refuse the things sent by the villagers.
What I mean by this is that it’s easy to block the things that are delivered to the door, but they can’t be delivered to the door, or in other words, it’s not a thank you for “things” at all, so it’s not easy to block at all...
For example, on the second day after Wu Qingchen began to help the villagers treat the cattle, the old William led his two sons to the allotment and only worked for half the morning. Passing by together", and "just happened to have nothing to do", and "just happened to bring some tools suitable for plowing", and "just happened to help by the way".
For another example, on the third day after Wu Qingchen began to help the villagers treat the cattle, Jakelin climbed up the gentle slope behind the house with a hooked sickle in his left hand, a wooden stick in his right, and a string of grass ropes on his shoulders. , ready to pack up the pasture that was turned in the afternoon, crossed the ridge, and just shook his spirits, at first glance, he found that the full slope of pasture that had been spread out at noon had disappeared, and before he had time to panic, he saw a series of grass under his feet The bundles were neatly piled up, and when I came back to my senses, I counted one more bundle than when I turned it in the sun.
For another example, on the fourth day after Wu Qingchen began to help the villagers heal the cattle, the firewood at home was running out, and little Nina went out early to the woodland that the steward had set aside for her to pick firewood for her. It just didn't come in handy all morning, and the ground was already covered with suitable dead branches.
For example...
Etc., etc…
There are many such situations, and they emerge one after another. Some of them come from the sincere gratitude of the villagers, and some come from the simple and simple speculation of the villagers. The common feature is that they are almost impossible to refuse.
Wu Qingchen already had a headache to deal with these things. Hearing little Nina yelling, Wu Qingchen quickly blocked her while looking around quickly, only to find that no one noticed, so she let out a long sigh of relief.
"Hush, keep your voice down!" Although there was no one around, Wu Qingchen lowered his voice: "Put it away quickly, and don't let others see it, or you will be in trouble again!"
"Got it..." Little Nina stuck out her tongue, quickly nodded her head, quickly hid the lettuce in the bottom of her robe, picked up Wu Qingchen's tools for tending cattle, and walked to the front lightly.
"Okay! There's no need to do this! Just walk slowly."
Seeing her sister pretending to be sneaky, Wu Qingchen couldn't help laughing, and gently patted little Nina on the head.
Shu Shu's fingers that were no longer sore, carefully lifted the wooden basket, and walked to the side of little Nina. Wu Qingchen could clearly see that, these days, little Nina has become more lively, her complexion is rosy, and her complexion has improved a lot.
This is normal. The agricultural officer has lent three precious oxen. The family has completed the important tasks of the whole summer, and also took time to finish a lot of work that was left behind. The father and brother have nothing to worry about, and they are naturally happy, little Nina Of course, it is also much more comfortable; besides, these days, with the enthusiastic help of the villagers, Old William and his two elder brothers can always finish work and go home early, and the heavy work at home does not require little Nina to work hard.
However, these are not the main reasons.
Fifty-Nine Visitors (Part 2)
At this time, following little Nina, Wu Qingchen had already walked into the wooden house.
After two consecutive days of light rain and a longer cloudy day, stepping into the wooden door, the damp breath rushed in. Wu Qingchen stopped immediately, her nose twitched slightly, looked around, frowned quickly, and walked quickly into the wooden house side.
"Nina, why isn't it turned on? It's been closed all day, don't you feel... don't feel... don't you feel stuffy
While speaking, Wu Qingchen had already walked into the depths of the wooden house, and stood next to the "wall" formed by stacking a whole row of planks and logs. With his right hand, he lifted a small plank from the rough wooden wall, The strips of cloth on the planks hung from the logs above the planks.
open the window.
This is a fairly common action, and any ordinary person in the earth world must be very familiar with it. Even the little ones in kindergarten must have completed it countless times.
However, in the medieval world, this action is not unusual at all.
After all, this is a world where there is no such thing as a "window". At least the houses that Wu Qingchen has seen so far do not exist.
"Oh! Brother, I forgot again... No wonder I always feel that there is something I haven't done..." Little Nina stuck out her tongue quickly, and quickly but carefully put down Wu Qingchen's treatment tool, "But, brother , what does it mean to be stuffy?"
"Stuffiness is just... just... just... Stuffiness is chest pain..."
The barren language choked his throat. Wu Qingchen hesitated for a long time, but he couldn't figure out how to use the language without words such as "breathing", "trachea", and "air" to describe the correct and scientific "stuffiness".
Even the word "stuffy" was coined by Wu Qingchen from the temporary use of "empty" and "sick" a few days ago. ----This is the closest word Wu Qingchen can think of.
"Oh, tightness is chest pain..."
Putting down the last tool, little Nina suddenly touched her chest and took a few deep breaths, showing a look of thinking, and soon cried out in surprise: "Ah, brother, it's true! I just came back to the house from the outside Here, I'm really a little... a little... stuffy, and it's much better now! But... brother, why is this happening? Why is it... stuffy...?"
"This... this... because... because..." His throat was choked again, and Wu Qingchen began to hesitate again: "The shortness of breath is because the chest is too far away from the outside, blocked by the wall..."
Obviously, this kind of explanation may not be too abstract, and little Nina naturally became more puzzled: "Too far from the outside? Why do you get bored if you are too far away from the outside?"
Why do you get bored if you are too far away from the outside world
Why is the 'empty' stuffy without entering the cabin
What is 'empty'
Why do we need 'empty'
Everyone needs 'empty', what if it is not enough
Why can trees and grass produce 'empty'
What is 'back and forth'
Wu Qingchen almost saw the overwhelming problems coming, and finally understood that when the top experts on the earth trained him, he was often speechless, shaking his head and smiling wryly was part of the training.
"alright!"
After recovering, Wu Qingchen was speechless, shook his head and smiled wryly, and pointed to another wooden wall: "You don't need to understand this aspect for now, let's focus on the urgent issues at present."
"Ah... ok ok..." Little Nina quickly ran to the other side of the wooden house, "Really, I forgot to open the wall hole again!"
Hole in the wall... From this word, it can be seen that little Nina is not good at the business of "opening windows".
The following process proved this again.
Standing next to the wooden wall, little Nina, who was obviously undersized, stood on tiptoe, grabbed the cloth strip with both hands, pulled up the wooden board, and hung it to the log with great effort. After two failed attempts in vain, little Nina stopped and frowned slightly. After a short while, it suddenly dawned on him again. He held up the board with one hand, and grabbed the strip of cloth with the other, so that both of them approached the log at the same time. After several times of switching arms and changing postures, after half a minute passed, the wooden house finally Another ventilation channel was opened.
"Finally it's done... brother, how's it going? The wall... is the hole in the wall opened like this?" Turning around, little Nina showed a questioning expression.
hole in the wall...
Wu Qingchen shook his head and smiled wryly, then nodded: "That's right."
"Huh..." Standing at the window... no, standing by the hole in the wall, little Nina gently closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and then exhaled deeply. When she opened her eyes again, little Nina There was a trace of satisfaction on Na's face: "It's so good... I feel less stuffy..."
The windows on both sides have been opened, through the convection of the windows, a breeze gently blows over Wu Qingchen's cheeks, and through the smile of little Nina, a warm current gently wafts over Wu Qingchen's chest, "That's good, from now on Remember to open it every day... Open the hole in the wall, don't forget it again."
When giving these instructions, Wu Qingchen's expression was very serious, and his tone was serious enough.
This is very necessary.
The two windows opened out of the wall composed of rows of logs and planks are made of dead wood that can be picked up in the forest. The rags are fixed, no matter from the perspective of the earth world or the medieval world, it can be said that the structure is simple and the materials are simple.
However, for the even simpler wooden house of Wu Qingchen’s family in the medieval world, even such a simple structure and simple windows can immediately improve the air in the wooden house. Water leaks, although the inside of the wooden house is not fresh and natural, but there is no musty smell or smell anymore.
In order to improve the health of the Medieval World family members, Wu Qingchen has completed many plans since the first day he entered the Medieval World, and now, the effects of them are gradually becoming apparent.
Improve the environment by killing rats and cockroaches, improve sleep by secretly re-laying the family beds, improve the air by digging windows and repairing the roof, improve nutrition by adding medicine to the food of the family members openly...
Etc., etc…
In the past few days, I have borrowed three oxen to save the summer service. Old William, Jacqueline, Idra, and Grace have no idea of resting at all. Using the precious time of these few days, the four People leave early and return late, or race against time to make up for the work that was left behind, or forget to eat and sleep to complete the plan for several months, or even several years ago, but have never had the time and energy to realize the idea.
Obviously, in the past few days, the labor intensity of the four people is even more exhausting than before. However, in the past few days, no matter little Nina, Jacqueline, Idra, and Grace, their complexions are much ruddy, their work is not light at all, but they are far more energetic than before.
Now, Wu Qingchen, the visitor, finally paid the first rent for the landlord who accepted the visitor.
