Farmer’s Blessed Girl

Everyone fell silent.

It was only half a day, but Bai Shan inquired very carefully, he said: "After the sacrifice, the patients of the two tribes have gradually improved, and not so many people have died. Everyone thinks that it is the manifestation of the gods, and they are satisfied with them. So I didn't dare to get close to Aina, who dared to let go of the sacrifice. She was sent to do the hardest and most tiring work. I didn't expect the witch would invite her to learn from you, just because she was very smart. "

Man Bao pursed his lips and asked, "How do they explain the people who died of illness after offering sacrifices to the gods?"

"The herdsmen think that they must be particularly fond of the gods, and the gods want them to serve him together, or they are dishonest, so they are not blessed."

Yin He frowned and said: "No, if they believe in gods so much, why do the patriarch and the witch treat you so warmly?"

Isn't it just to learn the medical skills of treating smallpox from Zhou Man?

If they believe that this is all blessed by the gods, how can they care so much about this medical technique?

For this reason, they also interrupted the migration plan and stayed here temporarily?

Bai Shan sighed, "Yeah, you must know that the herdsmen live by water and grass, if they go late, other tribes are likely to arrive earlier than them, and then occupy the grass they saw before, but they are willing to be here now. Staying, obviously believes that smallpox can be cured with medicine, and it has nothing to do with the gods."

Confusion flashed in Zhou Liru's eyes, "Then why sacrifice?"

No one spoke. After a long while, Bai Shan said, "No matter what the reason is, Ayina is now a sinner in the Tutu Department. I originally wanted to remind you to pay attention to the people in the Tutu Department when teaching her, but now It doesn't seem necessary."

"No, it's still necessary," Man Bao pursed his lips and said, "Let her come and set fire to us at night. Since she's so smart, she shouldn't just learn what the other three learned."

Zhou Liru became excited, "What does my aunt want to teach her?"

Man Bao glanced at her and said, "People's favorite disease."

Zhou Liru clasped his fingers and said, "Wind-cold, fever, cough and stomach pain."

Man Baodao: "There are too many problems with stomach pain, and I can't teach anything in three or four days, but the cold, fever and cough can be divided into prescriptions, as long as she remembers the symptoms of each situation, and then gives them The corresponding prescription will definitely be better than the current Gulu's random treatment."

That's right, now Gulu treats people in disorder.

Give a handful of Chaihu when the wind is cold, go back and boil it yourself; if you have a fever, it is also a handful of Chaihu, and if you have a cough, it is still a Chaihu, so I heard that Gulu and the others often exchange the herbs they dug for the Chaihu.

And the people of the Tutu tribe are so tenacious, relying on a handful of Chaihu and some other medicinal herbs, the probability of surviving after illness is higher than that of other tribes, so Gulu is a famous witch among several nearby tribes. .

Man Bao has heard a lot of praise from his two apprentices today, so it's hard to wonder if he doesn't know.

Man Bao said: "Let her come to make a fire for me and make my bed, she can spend four more nights than others."

Zhou Liru immediately said, "I'll go talk to the people in the Tutu Department."

Without any hints, she went directly to Gulu's apprentice who asked her questions and said, "We need someone in the tent to set the fire and make the bed. My sister-in-law may have to get up to drink tea at night. Can Aina take care of it?"

Gulu's apprentices didn't have to ask the patriarch and the witch, they could answer the matter directly, so after Manbao finished teaching the afternoon session, and when he was twisting his neck to rest, Ayina got up and went to Manbao's first. Tent, knelt down to make her bed, and carefully built a brazier to drive away the cold.

Man Bao was stunned for a moment, then twisted his neck and walked in. Ayina saw her and immediately said, "Miss, it's too cold in the tent. If you want to smoke it, go out and wait for us first."

"It doesn't matter," there was no bed, the tent was padded with oil cloth, then covered with felt and fur, and on top was a layer of straw mat, on which was the quilt that Aina had just laid.

Man Bao sat on the quilt and watched Aina bend over to smoke every corner of the house, as if the cold air in the room could be swept away.

In fact, it can also be smoked.

Man Bao couldn't help being ecstatic, and after a while, he asked softly, "Aina, are you willing to come with me?"

Ayina was stunned for a moment, she was still squatting on the ground, so she looked up to see Zhou Man's expression.

Man Bao said: "I think you are very smart. I can teach you medical skills. In the future, you can do what you want to do. However, when you follow me, you may have to do some work to make a living. Would you like to? "

Ayina looked at Zhou Man and gently placed her knees on the ground. She knelt in the direction of Man Bao and asked softly, "Miss, do you want me to be a servant?"

Man Bao shook his head slightly, "No, it's a disciple, if you're willing to follow me."

Ayina fell silent. After a long, long time, when Manbao thought she couldn't give an answer today, she asked, "Why do you want to take me away, Miss?"

After thinking about it, Man Bao said: "It's a pity, I think you can live better."

Aina smiled and said, "Miss, no matter who you take away, you can have a better life."

Although the time was short, she knew that this Miss Zhou was very capable, and the people around her were also very powerful, and Zhou Liang, who did business with the patriarch, was still her own brother, so she looked very rich, whether it was Anyone who follows her will be better off than staying in the Tutu Department.

But... Aina shook her head and rejected Man Bao, "I'm not going."

She paused for a while before asking anxiously, "Can you still teach me medical skills, Miss?"

"Of course," Man Bao didn't force her, and didn't even persuade her any more. It seemed that it was just a random suggestion from her. She said: "In addition to smallpox disease, I can also teach you wind-cold, fever and cough. You know wind-cold. ?"

Man Bao looked at her knees on the ground, and said softly, "Although it's almost summer now, the ground is still very cold. Cold air can not only be introduced into the human body from the wind and rain, but also from the ground. When the grass has been shoveled, you are kneeling directly on the ground, and the cold will enter your body from your knees. People who are not in good health will easily catch the cold, and then they will have a runny nose, headache, sneezing, and may be exhausted. It's the wind chill."

Aina immediately got up from the ground and patted her knees. She didn't seem to be relieved. She was still squatting by the brazier, trying her best to keep her knees close to the brazier.

Man Bao smiled and asked, "Are there many people here who catch the cold every year?"

Ayina nodded, and then said, "The Han people who come to do business say that the cold is contagious, so people in the tribe who contract the cold must temporarily move to the cowshed."

Man Bao said with a look of regret: "You can live in a tent alone, why move it to the cowshed?"

"Because it's not enough," Aina said, "not everyone has a tent, many people only have one per family."

See you tomorrow
