Chapter 22 Heatstroke
Mo Qianrui still loves her baby sister very much, but she doesn't like to spoil children.

"Ah, sister, to tell you the truth, after the wheat harvest is over, sister will go to the market with Dad to sell syrup. Therefore, you can only eat a small part of the syrup made by sister, and the rest It's all for sale." Mo Qianrui didn't want to see Erya crying every day in the future, she thought it was necessary to have a good talk with Erya.

Erya looked at Mo Qianrui half-understood, and then nodded aggrievedly after a while: "Sell delicious food for money? Just like Auntie used to save up eggs for others, right?"

Hearing what Er Ya said, Mo Qianrui breathed a sigh of relief.Mo's family is poor, even if Er Ya is favored, she will not develop an arrogant temperament. For her, it is already a common thing for her family to sell good things.Stretching out her hand to touch Erya's little head, Mo Qianrui expressed comfort: "That's it, but sister will also remember to leave some for Erya to eat, do you think this is good?"

"Okay." Er Ya pursed her mouth, and it took her a long time to reply pitifully, looking at Mo Qianrui, she couldn't stop laughing.

Back home, seeing that it was getting dark, Mo Qianrui started to make lunch.

In the past, my family ate two meals in the morning and evening, but now it is the wheat harvest season, and harvesting wheat is purely physical work. In order to have the strength to work, most people in the village have an extra meal at noon.In fact, if Mo Qianrui had to say it, it would be better to stay at home and rest at noon, and wait for it to cool down before working.It's a pity that the parents didn't listen to Mo Qianrui's opinion at all, or maybe it was because there was too much wheat to be harvested, even if there was no rest at noon, it would not be an easy task to harvest all the wheat in the field .

In the hot summer, working in the field is sweating all over. Mo Qianrui was worried that his parents' appetite would not be good, so he specially made another appetizing sauce. Besides, he also made a few more salty dishes. pickles.There is no way, the most feared thing about doing physical work is the loss of water and salt. Parents will not be stingy with water, but in this way, the loss of salt will only be faster.

After thinking about it, Mo Qianrui simply soaked mung beans in a pot again, and boiled a pot of mung bean soup to send to his parents in the afternoon. It's a pity that there is no refrigerator here, otherwise the iced mung bean soup would not be too delicious.

After the rice was steamed, Mo Qianrui found a small flat-bottomed pot, cleaned it and began to fill it with food.

First spread a thin layer of rice on the bottom of the pot, then pour the appetizing sauce, then spread a layer of rice, and spread the pickled vegetables flat on the rice... In this way, one layer of rice and one layer of sauce , and then a layer of rice and a layer of pickled vegetables.After laying five floors, Mo Qianrui gave up, without taking the lid of the pot, directly inserted the rice ladle into the rice, found two large bowls to cover the rice, and asked Erya to take the chopsticks, sisters The two went to the field to deliver food together.

This time was when most farmers' families delivered lunch, and along the way, Mo Qianrui saw half-grown children from each family carrying their meals carefully to the fields.Most of the dry fields in the village are located at the end of the village. Mo Qianrui followed the crowd to the field and invited his parents to have dinner.

After a while, many people gathered under the shade of the tree, and parents were no exception.The weather is really too hot, like Mo Qianrui, who just walks from home to the field, feels tanned, let alone someone who has been working on the field all the time.

"Hey, brother Dashan, what delicious food did your big girl cook?"

It has been two days since the wheat harvest started. At noon two days ago, Mo Qianrui sent a meal of rice topped with rice and cold noodles. Although the ingredients were very common, the aroma couldn't be deceiving.Therefore, seeing Mo Qianrui approaching, many people gathered together, not for the sake of stuttering, but for a rare look.

In the countryside, people would watch when two dogs fight, let alone eat fresh food.

Dad didn't mind either, he stretched out his hand to take the small pot Mo Qianrui handed over, and after uncovering the two large porcelain bowls, those who were waiting to watch the fun were disappointed.

Logically speaking, the sauce rice should be an eye-catching first dish at the end, but Mo Qianrui deliberately covered it with a layer of rice.In this way, others would think that it was just fishing for dry food.

It's not bad to eat dry rice in normal times, but in this wheat harvest season, in addition to eating good food to build strength, some people still have a desire to compare.Just think about it, on weekdays, the whole family hides in the house to eat, unless they cook meat dishes like the Li family, otherwise who would know what they ate?Some face-saving people deliberately show off their good food during the wheat harvest, or that the wives and daughters at home are good at cooking.

Two days ago, Mo Qianrui won, which is why he attracted so much attention, but now...

Dad didn't care about it, he took the rice ladle and started scooping the rice, but there was a problem with this scooping.

"Hey, how dare your eldest girl know that the meat should be buried in the bottom of the bowl! Look at this food, it looks delicious."

"It's better to have a daughter. Those boys in my family should go to work in the fields. They don't have much strength. Let's make a fire. They almost burnt the stove, and I want my mother-in-law to go back and serve them. It's really..."

Dad completely ignored the ridicule from others, eating the most food in the world.I don't know if it's because I'm already hungry, or because Mo Qianrui's appetizers are very effective, and my parents are delicious.After dinner, Mo Qianrui packed up the dishes and asked Erya to bring the empty pot.Mo Qianrui forced Dad to bring this kettle this morning.It used to be that Dad always went to the river in the morning to carry a bucket of cold water and put it on his head. When he was thirsty, he would scoop up a bowl to drink. Of course, other people also did the same.

However, Mo Qianrui has paid special attention to these things since drinking cold water to make her stomach upset last time.Speaking of it, she is also very strange. In her previous life, she swallowed all kinds of chemicals in her stomach, and she didn't see any stomach troubles. She is really fragile in this life.

The day before yesterday was the first time to harvest wheat, and my parents had been drinking cold water for a whole day, so Mo Qianrui would boil a pot of boiling water for my parents in the morning, and let my father bring it in the pot.However, the capacity of this jug is limited after all, and it has already bottomed out after only half a day's work. Maybe parents don't have enough to drink and go to drink cold water.

Sighing silently in his heart, Mo Qianrui thought it would be better to make two more trips.By the way, wait to see if the mung beans are soaked. If it is ready, cook a pot of thick mung bean soup. This is more thirst-quenching than cold boiled water.When they got home, they boiled water again, and made mung bean soup again. This time, when Mo Qianrui was still boiling the water, he put some salt in it, which probably added some salt.Fortunately, Er Ya has been staying at home obediently to tease the little chick, probably because she is not very interested in mung bean soup.

After the mung bean soup was finished, another large pot of cold water was filled. This time, Mo Qianrui didn't call Erya. After all, it's very hot in the sun.After ordering Erya not to leave the house, Mo Qianrui walked to her own field.

Before Mo Qianrui reached the ground, he saw a group of people gathered in a crowd from a distance, and was startled, so he hurried over.

"Should I call the doctor? This man has fainted."

"It's just that it's hot, it's okay, just let him rest under the shade of the tree for a while."

"Let's carry him home, it's a hot day..."

It turned out that someone had suffered from heat stroke. Mo Qianrui stood on tiptoe and looked through the crowd, and found a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy lying on the ground.The young man looked a little thin and small, but Mo Qianrui secretly yelled badly when he looked at his face.

The boy's face was covered with big drops of sweat, the clothes on his body were completely soaked, and he appeared to be severely dehydrated. If he didn't give first aid immediately, something serious might happen.

"Father, let's get someone to call a doctor, he looks like he's suffering from severe heat stroke!" Mo Qianrui knew very well that what a ten-year-old yellow-haired girl said would definitely not work, so he went straight to find Father and asked him to come forward.

Father's face was a little hesitant: "I think it's just that the food is hot, why don't you just rest for a while?"

"Father! He's already passed out. If you look at him again, his clothes are all soaked through. How much sweat does he have to sweat? If this continues, he'll die of dryness!" Mo Qianrui didn't know. How to explain the symptoms of dehydration, after all, she was not a medical staff in her previous life, so she can only try to explain to Dad according to her own understanding.But obviously, looking at Father's expression, he didn't really believe it.

Mo Qianrui is really in a hurry, she is not a kind-hearted person, but she can't helplessly watch a young life die in front of her. I can only think of other ways.

"Then... that's all right. I boiled some salt water and mung bean soup. Dad, ask someone to feed him some."

This is not a problem, Dad took the jar of salt water, let the crowd spread out, and held the boy's chin to feed him water.No, but the boy's teeth were closed tightly, and he couldn't drink any water at all.When Mo Qianrui saw this, she couldn't bear it, but her words didn't carry any weight at all. After thinking about it, she simply ran to the barefoot doctor's house in the village following the memory of the original owner.

Yangliu Village is not big, but the weather is really too hot. Mo Qianrui was already sweating profusely after running for a quarter of an hour. Fortunately, the barefoot doctor was at home. Mo Qianrui said that someone fainted on the ground , I can't even feed the water, the doctor is in a hurry.He hurriedly picked up a bag, asked for the exact location, and hurried there by himself without waiting for Mo Qianrui, who had short legs.

When Mo Qianrui hurried to catch up, before reaching the ground, he saw several men carrying the young man towards the village. Called two aunts to help boil the medicine.

The villagers in the village were able to hold up the scene at critical moments, and the onlookers just helped to help, and Mo Qianrui also saw that father was among the people who helped carry the boy.

It seems that they didn't help before, but they didn't know the seriousness of the matter.
