Siheyuan: Get the system at the beginning

Chapter 53 Acupuncture for Mr. Tian

Zhang Xiaoyan spoke politely and courteously, and after Xu Jiu knew her purpose, he let her in.

Zhang Xiaoyan walked into the room obediently. The room was not big but very tidy. There was a faint woody scent in the air. Zhang Xiaoyan immediately realized that the scent was not simple. It was definitely the scent emitted by the wood itself.

"What kind of wine do you want?"

While Zhang Xiaoyan was trying to identify the fragrance, Xu Jiu had already sat on a chair and looked at her with sharp eyes, asking questions.

"Oh! The higher the alcohol content, the better. Any liquor made from grain will do."

"Look at what you said, what else could this wine be except brewed from grain?"

Xu Jiu sneered. Although he had heard of fruit wine, he did not think that it could be used to make medicinal wine. Moreover, how could mere fruit wine be compared with grain essence? That thing was not worthy.

As a traditional inheritor of grain winemaking, he looks down on people who make wine from fruits. Naturally, fruit wine is not in his eyes, so it is not within his consideration.

"It doesn't matter what kind of liquor it is, as long as it's strong."

Because at that time there was no clear indicator of the alcohol content of wine, it was only divided into grades. What's more, an older generation inheritor like Xu Jiu had to rely entirely on experience to judge the concentration of wine.

"That's fine, but now you know that food is hard to buy. Even a good cook cannot cook without rice!"

Xu Jiu felt a little lonely when he thought of this. He hadn't brewed wine for a long time. Sometimes he felt itchy but had no food. It was a kind of irony for him, who had been obsessed with brewing wine all his life.

"I have the food, all I need is Master Xu's skills. Master Xu can keep 20% of the wine he brews as a reward."

There is such a good thing? Xu Jiu's eyes lit up immediately when he heard it. Naturally, he was happy to see it happen. He didn't doubt what the other party said. After all, the other party had already revealed his identity. People like him wouldn't go back on their words. But he still had a question.

"Comrade, do you know how much grain is needed to brew a pot? Let me tell you this. If wheat is the main ingredient, at least four catties of grain are needed to make one catty of liquor. Sorghum is the second most important, with three catties required to brew one catty of liquor. From what you said, a lot of liquor is needed, so the corresponding amount of grain is not a small amount."

"Master Xu, please rest assured! I have already prepared all the food you need. I just want to find a master craftsman like you who has real skills."

"Okay, bring the food here. I'll start cooking for you in less than three days. You can come and get the wine in half a month at most."

"Then I'll bring the food here tomorrow morning."

“No need to pull here, so do you know Desheng Building?”

"Yes, it's a famous Chinese restaurant."

"I'll wait for you at the intersection south of Desheng Building tomorrow, and then I'll take you to the winery."

"Okay, I'll be waiting for you there at 7 o'clock tomorrow morning."

After agreeing on the time and place, Xu Jiu's face was beaming with joy, and Zhang Xiaoyan was also very satisfied to hear the promise. Now that the matter was settled, the next step would be easy. Zhang Xiaoyan would transport all the needed food to the designated location tomorrow morning.

After a simple farewell, Zhang Xiaoyan walked out of Master Xu's house. As soon as she came out, she saw Aunt Tian waiting at her door. When she saw someone coming out, she waved with a smile on her face.

"Come here, Xiao Zhang. Auntie is waiting for you. Are you done with your work?"

"Auntie Tian, ​​I have finished my work and am just about to head to your room."

"There's a little smell in the room, don't be disgusted, I clean it every day, there's nothing I can do about it."

As soon as Zhang Xiaoyan came over, Aunt Tian warmly invited her into the house, but there was a hint of embarrassment on her face when she said that.

"Auntie Tian, ​​it's nothing. There are patients at home, so this is unavoidable. But you can also burn some dried mugwort, which can freshen the air and has a certain sterilization and disinfection effect."

"? What kind of grass is love grass?"

Aunt Tian was a little confused. She poured some water for Zhang Xiaoyan while thinking about it.

"Mugwort, how about this, I'll bring you some next time I come over. You only need to look at it once to know what it looks like. It's not uncommon in the wild. Where is Mr. Tian? I'll show him."

Zhang Xiaoyan was also a little speechless. Mugwort is an annual plant, and she couldn't find it in the cold winter. However, there was some in the factory doctor's Chinese medicine cabinet. She would bring some to her next time.

"He's lying on the bed! Drink some water before you show him!"

"No need, Auntie Tian, ​​I'm not thirsty either. I'll check on you first."

The middle door was open, and you could actually see the person lying on the bed inside. Uncle Tian was half leaning on the bed, looking listless with his eyes half-closed and his head drooped. Even if he heard someone talking outside, he didn't have the energy to respond.

"Hey! The weather has turned hot these past two days, and your Uncle Tian has been sleeping well all night, so he doesn't have much energy, let alone the energy to talk."

Zhang Xiaoyan just nodded. The unpleasant smell became stronger after she walked in. However, there was nothing she could do about it. Even decades later, in this situation, if the family members were a little careless, it would be a great torture for the patient.

After pretending to feel the patient's pulse and asking some questions, he walked out of the room and came to the living room. While taking out the acupuncture tools he carried with him, he said to Auntie Tian who followed him out:

"Auntie Tian, ​​let me make some preparations here. Take away the quilt for Uncle Tian, ​​and then let him lie flat on the bed. Then fill a basin with hot water, just enough to scald your hands, and rub his whole body. I will give him acupuncture for half an hour, so that Uncle Tian can feel more relaxed.

I didn't bring any medicine this time, I will come again tomorrow and bring the medicine and give Mr. Tian a good treatment. "

"Thank you so much, I'll go right away."

Although she didn't hear that the disease could be cured, she is satisfied now that her husband's pain can be relieved, or even if she can have a good night's sleep.

She immediately went to work happily. Now that there is a coal stove at home, there is always plenty of hot water. Soon Aunt Tian did everything according to what Zhang Xiaoyan said.

When Zhang Xiaoyan went in, she saw Grandpa Tian covered with a thin sheet. Aunt Tian covered him with a thin sheet because she was afraid that he would be cold.

With Zhang Xiaoyan's current medical skills, she can perform acupuncture even when the patient is behind an obstruction, so she is not afraid of having her body covered, because her body shape can be seen.

In order to make Aunt Tian feel more at ease, Zhang Xiaoyan specially took out a small glass bottle of alcohol from her pocket, which was actually the space in her pocket, and burned a cotton thread to disinfect the silver needle. As expected, Aunt Tian's last bit of uneasiness was completely replaced by trust.

"When I'm giving acupuncture to someone, what I fear most is someone suddenly making a noise, so please watch at the door and make sure no one suddenly makes any noise. If I get scared and my hands start shaking, it will be Uncle Tian who will suffer. In worse cases, it may make the disease worse."

When Aunt Tian heard this, she was so angry that she patted her chest and promised that she would guard the door and prevent people in the yard from making any noise. Then she turned around and ran outside to guard it.
