The days when I fished in Daming

After eating and drinking well, touching the money in their hands and feeling their stomachs, they all showed extremely satisfied expressions.

Having rested, one by one volunteered.

"Uncle, we're going to catch eels."

Zheng Xiong's original intention was just to play tricks, if he continued to touch it, he would get sick if he didn't keep it clean, so he didn't agree.

"Come here today, another day, let's come again."

A little disappointed, those who have gained are already very satisfied.

Some of them didn't gain anything, but they were a little wronged. It's not that they didn't work hard, but they were defeated by luck, and they cried after thinking about it.

It is the most headache for children to cry, and it is obvious that others have swollen chests, but they don't have them, Zheng Xiong can only helplessly support his forehead and say.

"Don't cry, if you don't get caught, there will be a consolation prize of [-] Wen per person, come and get it in line."

As soon as these words came out, the children burst into tears and laughed, one by one, walking in front of Zheng Xiong with their bodies covered in dirt, to receive the consolation prize.

Although the money was handed out, Zheng Xiong's mouth curled up in the dirt covered by the children, and he didn't feel distressed at all.

The children looked like generals returning from victory, each with their heads held high, followed behind Zheng Xiong and marched towards the second grandpa's house in a mighty manner.

Speeding up his pace, Zheng Xiong entered the courtyard first.

The children were a little slow, only one step away, and the result was a world of difference.

Looking at the dirty body of his own child, the adult frowned unconsciously.

As a parent, I can't tolerate such a dirty body at all, and I love and take responsibility for it.

Looking around, the bamboo strips piled up at the door came into view.

I folded one very smoothly, and gave my children a meal of fried pork with bamboo strips.

There was no time to react, no time to show off and explain the reason, everything was so caught off guard.

The screams were endless, echoing in this small world.

Zheng Xiong watched it with gusto. The nightmare of the same year was just being played out in front of him. After the roles were reversed, it was a different experience.

But soon, when a copper plate fell from a child, the situation changed.

The parent picked up the copper plate and asked in a serious tone.

"Where did you get the money? What did you do?"

The child was stunned by the beating, and before he recovered, he said in a dull voice when he heard the question.

"When catching eels, my uncle gave it to me. If I caught one, I would give it twenty cents!"

"I caught three today, and there are sixty coins! They are all here, here you are."

amount.

After hearing what happened, the parents looked at Zheng Xiong resentfully, but they didn't know what to say.

If you say that you are so grown up and so naive, you should be able to draw a few sentences.

But it's real money. An adult may not be able to earn twenty cents in a day, and catching a few eels is equivalent to giving it away for nothing.

Want to thank you!Seeing the bird-like appearance of my own child, I really can't open my mouth.

After each of them cursed "prodigal son" in their hearts, they took their children back to change the laundry.

The one with a lively mind was different, walked up to Zheng Xiong, and said with a big face.

"Little brother, do you still want eels? I have quite a few here, see if you can change them!"

Han Yue'er could understand Zheng Xiong's farce, and felt a little helpless.

I also don't understand why Zheng Xiong, a marquis, is playing around with children.

Looking at Han Yueer's gaze, Zheng Xiong felt a little guilty, and then he pretended to be calm and said to the visitor.

"No more, you can sell it if you want, according to the market price."

It was too different from what I had expected in my heart, so the visitor smiled awkwardly and didn't say any more.

For a whole day, Han Yue'er seemed to have endless things to say, talking about the situation of these years with her second grandfather and some relatives and friends.

If you haven't found your close relatives, maybe you can only express your emotions in front of these relatives and friends. Anyway, there are endless words.

When they learned that Zheng Xiong was sealed as Marquis, their relatives and friends opened their eyes wide, looking at Zheng Xiong who was playing with the children, showing expressions of disbelief.

The contrast is too great, who can imagine.

And Han Yue'er looked at Zheng Xiong benevolently with a strong look of pride.

When he said the purpose of this trip, he sighed slightly.

"Second Uncle, do you have any news about my brothers?"

"No, that day was too difficult. No one can take care of anyone else. Don't worry too much. Auspicious people have their own destiny. Sooner or later, we will meet again."

As expected, Han Yue'er was mentally prepared, she just got a little sentimental, and didn't mention this topic again.

The moon is bright and the stars are sparse, and Han Yue'er has not left, so Zheng Xiong can only stay here helplessly.

The next day, when Zheng Xiong was sleeping soundly, he was suddenly woken up by a group of people.

It turned out that officials from the state government came to the door, Lao Zheng and Mrs. Jia also came, and the officials also brought condolences, of course, to the villagers.

Woke Zheng Xiong up and left.

But this move also made Zheng Xiong no longer sleepy.

After saluting the whole family, Zheng Xiong wandered around.

Stopping and walking along the way, the people in the village are full of respect, and some even cringe.

The children also lost the liveliness they had yesterday, and they looked at Zheng Xiong with a look of fear in their eyes.

It's boring, being a lord means being a little lonely, one can imagine how lonely the emperor must be.

It was another boring day, in the afternoon, Han Yueer suddenly had a whim, and wanted to cook a meal of hometown food for Zheng Xiong and others.

After being away from home for a long time, there is always a strong nostalgia.

Han Yue'er's actions show the status of her hometown all the time, and always occupy the softest place in her heart.

Artemisia baba, a special snack.

Different from Qingtuan to get the juice, Artemisia Baba in Lu'an Prefecture is to remove the juice and store the Artemisia.

After the fried shoots are minced, add rice noodles and add a little bit of meat.

Shape it into a cake and stick it in the pan.

After forming, half of it is browned and half is soft and waxy.

Coupled with the unique taste of Artemisia annua, one bite will leave a fragrance on your lips and teeth.

The whole family ate to their heart's content, and Zheng Xiong ate four or five in a row before giving up.

During this process, while picking wormwood, the wormwood used also made Zheng Xiong deep in thought.

It is none other than Artemisia annua, the raw material of artemisinin.

The fluffy stalks of the stalks are conspicuous, but the dry stalks are also eye-catching, and the yellow flowers on them are clearly visible.

Zheng Xiong recognized this thing at first sight.

However, although the things are good and right in front of us, it is not so easy to make a magic drug against malaria.

Not only the place of origin is different, but also the effect is not the same.

Other preparations are also difficult.

It took Tu Youyou 40 years to create artemisinin.

It still has the foundation of industrial equipment.

And I have nothing, so I can only use local methods.

At most, it can be purified with alcohol, but the real effect is very different.

However, such a simple purification also has a great effect on anti-malarial.

If artemisinin can be successfully produced, it will be as good as the prevention and treatment of smallpox.

And the Kinney cream that the traversers prefer will also be reduced to a foil.

In the short term, simply extracted artemisinin can be used as a special drug, but in the long run it must be the main research direction.

In addition, I have paid attention to it, and I can grasp the general direction, and the probability of success in the future is very high.

However, this thing is not too urgent, keep in mind that if you go back, you can ask the pharmacy to make preparations.
