Reborn Soul: Me and My Family

Chapter 207: Going to the Commune to Mail a Package

Grandpa's worry was not without reason. After all, they were in the village now and could not bring trouble to the people who helped them.

"I know, grandpa, do all these herbs need to be ground into powder before they can be used?" The old man gently poured the powder onto the kraft paper.

"Yes~ Most of it must be ground into powder before use, but a small part needs special processing.

This is also passed down by our Ye family ancestors. The benefit of this treatment is that it can make all the medicines blend together better.

I will teach you these steps slowly. The most important thing for you now is to handle each herb carefully."

Ye Lihao nodded, and the grandfather and grandson lowered their heads to do their respective work, stopping from time to time to chat.

Looking at the time, Ye Lihao stood up and said, "Grandpa, take a rest first. I'll go get the food from next door."

At noon, Ouyang Qing cooked a pot of soup, and the rest of the dishes were basically made by Ouyang Yan. It seemed that no one had come yet,

I was planning to send it to the next courtyard later, but I didn't expect that there would be a knock on the door at this time. When the food was taken away,

The three of them had nothing to do in the afternoon, so they planned to stay at home and rest.

Suddenly, time passed quickly in the blink of an eye. After making the last batch of medicine, the old man asked his grandson to take him back that night.

In the past few days, Ouyang Qing and her friends have used the existing ingredients at home to nourish the old man's body in various ways, which of course also made the old man look better.

Early that morning, Ye Lihao brought the three people's Qi-boosting pills, along with the one Ouyang Bai had sent home.

The pills were placed in a porcelain bottle that Ouyang Qing bought from a Chinese medicine store. Due to the age of the ginseng, the old man made ten bottles of pills from each ginseng.

Each bottle contains 50 pills. As for those that were supposed to be taken to the troops, in addition to being made into Qi-boosting pills,

I also made some blood-replenishing pills and hemostatic powder. "Sister Qingqing~ Should we send it to Brother Fan's house?"

"No need~ He has a large family, so I'd better wait for him to come back and take it back myself. Xiaohao, the village's ox cart will go to the commune tomorrow.

We have discussed before that we will mail the pills home, and walk around the commune and buy some things to bring back. Do you want to come with us?"

Hearing that Brother Fan should come by himself, Ye Lihao also expressed his agreement. He was also afraid that he would rashly deliver himself to the door.

It would be bad if there was a misunderstanding. "Then I'll go out early tomorrow. Otherwise, we shouldn't rest this afternoon.

Let's finish harvesting the pig grass for tomorrow. "It takes a long time to go back and forth by ox cart.

It's probably getting dark soon. Tomorrow is a day off for the village, so no one in the village needs to go to work.

The only ones who were collecting grass for the pigs were those who could not rest. After all, those were the mission pigs that needed to be handed in, and they could not let them starve. After discussing it, the four of them started the crazy mode of collecting grass for the pigs.

There was no rest at noon, and they spent half the afternoon handing in tomorrow's pig feed. After returning home, the three of them carefully wrapped the small porcelain bottle in their cotton-padded jackets.

Of course, they were so careful because they were afraid that the porcelain bottle would be damaged during transportation. After packing it, the three of them wrote a letter and put it inside.

The usual method of taking and the precautions were also written one by one. Ouyang Qing and his sister had 20 bottles.

She wrote down the distribution method according to what her eldest brother said before he went to the army, and each of the four elderly people was given three bottles.

My eldest uncle and two uncles each got one bottle, and the rest was left for their parents. This is also their filial piety as the younger generation.

Ouyang Yan only had ten bottles in her hand. She wrote the same letter as Ouyang Qing, letting them decide for themselves. Xiang Xiaoqing put her package with Ouyang Yan.

Of course, I also put my own letter in it, in which I wrote to the two old people to tell them that I only got back eight bottles of medicine.

Two bottles for each person, and don't tell her parents about the remaining two bottles, and also tell the two old people that this is her way of showing filial piety to them as a granddaughter,

They were told not to give away their share. The next morning, several people got up early, thinking that they had not been to the commune for so long.

There were definitely a lot of people riding the ox carts today. They arrived at the village entrance just after daybreak. As expected,

The people who went to the commune today were indeed drunk. Qiao Hongmei and her sister-in-law were waiting there early. Each of them paid a dime for the oxcart.

Qiao Hongmei pulled them to sit down quickly, "Qingqing girls, please sit down quickly, otherwise there will be no seats left.

Those who come late will have to wait for the next bus." Ouyang Qing and the other three sat down, and soon Wang Nianke and the other two came over.

As soon as the two of them paid the money and sat down, three new female educated youth arrived. As soon as everyone arrived, their car started to set off.

Ouyang Qing whispered in Qiao Hongmei's ear, "Auntie, wait for us to finish sending the package and then have dinner together."

Qiao Hongmei was about to say no, but Ouyang Qing shook her head at her, "Auntie~ I asked you to come to my house for dinner several times but you didn't go.

It's a rare opportunity for us to meet today, and we all need to eat. If you two go, it will just be a matter of adding two more pairs of chopsticks.

If you don’t go today, we won’t dare ask you for help next time when we have something to do.” In the end, the two sisters-in-law had no choice but to agree.

It was still early when the ox cart arrived at the commune. Ouyang Qing and his companions were going to mail a package. The baskets brought by Qiao Hongmei and her sister-in-law were covered with cloth.

Ouyang Qing guessed that they might be going to exchange things with others. After getting off the ox cart and agreeing on a time, they separated.

As soon as they got off the car, they went straight to the post office and sent the package. Ouyang Qing used the excuse of going to buy some things with an acquaintance and asked them to go shopping first.

Seeing that it was almost time, I went to the state-owned restaurant to wait. After dinner, I could go shopping. When I heard that she was going to buy something,

Ye Lihao quickly took out the money he had prepared, "Sister Qingqing, please buy me some of those things too.

I'll give you the money first. Do you need me to wait for you outside and help you deliver the things to the oxcart?"

The person he was looking for didn't exist. How could Ouyang Qing dare to take him with him? He took the money handed over.

"You guys don't have to go shopping first, I'll ask someone to take it there, remember to go there early and wait,

Don't keep the aunts waiting for too long." Watching the few people walk away, Ouyang Qing turned into the alley and found a hidden corner after a while.

He took out the small cart he had prepared long ago, on which were piled four bags of rice and flour. As for the oil, Ouyang Qing planned to find an opportunity to take it out later.

The one driving the car today was Fan Daguo. Ouyang Qing also took out a pack of meat buns from his space. This was the pack he put in his space when he came to the commune last time.

I pushed the cart through the alley without running into anyone I knew, but soon I arrived under the big tree where the ox cart was parked.

They arrived early, and the other ox cart had not arrived yet. There were several ox carts parked under the big tree. Fan Daguo was not talkative.

He was leaning on the ox cart with his eyes closed, and was discovered when Ouyang Qing pushed his cart in front of him. "Ouyang Qing,

Why are you back so early? The oxcart will not be back until the afternoon. " He parked the cart beside the oxcart.

"Uncle Daguo, please help me first. We have run out of food at home. It's rare for the oxcart to come out. Please buy some back.

My eldest brother and his family were at home before the New Year, and they had almost run out of food. If I didn’t buy more food, my eldest brother would come back in two days.

There should be no food at home." Fan Daguo stood up and helped her put all the bags of food on the ox cart.

Not only did he mention it, even the people from other teams nearby were secretly saying in their hearts that this female educated youth was too generous!

So much food was bought without any delay.
