The medicine of rebirth

Chapter 9 Mint
Su Banxi went to the countryside with the medical team in her previous life, all of which were in some very remote mountainous areas of the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, where there were only a few households, no electricity, no rice cooker and natural gas, and the most primitive way of cooking was earthen stoves and big pots Well, Su Banxi once helped, so she naturally knows how to use these cooking tools in the farmhouse. However, due to her lack of skill, the boiled corn paste has a slight smell, but at least it can be eaten.

Su Banxi, who had a full stomach, looked at the small half bag of corn paste and sighed softly. This day can't continue like this. What Su Shi needs most now is all kinds of light food. Corn paste alone is not enough, as the bones heal The severe pain caused by chronic disease cannot be eliminated in a day or two, but bone soup, stewed chicken, etc. are too fatty and nourishing, which will cause bone congestion and stagnation, which is difficult to dissipate. Recovery of joint function in the future.

Looking up and seeing that the sun was rising, Su Banxi deduced from the pagoda tree in the courtyard and what Mrs. Zhao said last night that it should be around mid-June to early July. She squinted her eyes and thought that this season is the purple Su Zi and all kinds of herbs grew most vigorously, so I simply cleaned up and went to Su Shi's room to see that he was still asleep, so I didn't wake him up.

Gently came out and closed the door, then closed the courtyard door and went to the field by relying on the general orientation of his own field in memory.

And before she came out, she took a look at the fence where there was a person lying on her stomach before, and Su Banxi didn't care when she saw that it was empty.

Maybe it's because the Su family's house is relatively remote, or maybe it's because everyone is afraid of staying at home in the midst of the sun, or maybe they're all busy in the fields, so Su Banxi really didn't meet anyone along the way, but she noticed the edge of the field. There are many small mint plants growing on the small ridge. The leaves are bright green and pleasant, and the cool and charming fragrance is refreshing and charming. Under the sun exposure, Su Banxi rolled her eyes and decided to pick some back to soak when she returned home later. Tea, repelling mosquitoes and flies.

Su Wen was weeding, wearing only a vest, his exposed skin was bronze-colored and dripping with sweat, while Zhao Shi was also digging the soil quickly and swiftly, and Su Banxi couldn't help but feel a little guilty because of the heat and sweat profusely. I didn't expect to bring some ice water.

"Mother, brother!" Su Banxi yelled, stepped on the sun-baked grass and went down to the field, and Zhao Shi who saw it raised her voice and shouted: "It's so hot today, what are you doing here, go back quickly Don’t get too hot, have you eaten yet? Mother left in a hurry in the morning and didn’t cook eggs for you. If you haven’t eaten yet, you can go back and cook them yourself. There is only this last thing left. Your brother and I will go back after looking through it. .”

Hearing that Su Banxi's footsteps paused, he looked at the almost overturned fields, then at his hands that didn't look like doing farm work, and sighed slightly, his pale face was a little more blush under the sun, looking It looks more energetic than before.

Su Wen wiped off his sweat, looked at his sister's thin body that seemed to be blown down by a gust of wind, and joined the ranks of Mrs. Zhao: "Banxi, it's very hot here, you'd better listen to your mother and go back quickly." Let's wait until the evening, I will take you to the river to catch fish and eat!"

Su Banxi's eyes flickered for a moment, seeing that she couldn't help herself, and made Zhao Shi and Su Wen worry about her, so she replied that she had gone back, Zhao Shi was worried about her, and asked Su Wen to send her back first before coming back Help, Su Banxi just said no, but Su Wen had already picked up the clothes on the field and walked towards her, and the words of refusal stuck in his throat.

"Let's go, why are you in a daze." When Su Banxi was in a trance, he had already walked up to her, and seeing her in a trance couldn't help being funny, so he opened his mouth to call her back.

Su Banxi hummed and followed Su Wen back home step by step, silent all the way, Su Wen thought she was upset, so he changed his way of talking to make her happy, "Banxi, don't be unhappy, evening Brother will take you to the river to catch fish to eat, and tomorrow I will take you to the mountains to play, there are a lot of wild fruits on the mountains!"

Su Banxi smiled and waited while passing by the small piece of mint field, Su Banxi grabbed Su Wen's finger and pointed at the mint and said, "Brother, let's pick some back, I will be useful!" If Su Wen went to the river to catch fish in the evening, it would be just You can make fish soup for Su Shi. In this era, there is no real way to remove the fishy smell. Just adding a little mint can offset the fishy smell and increase the freshness. It couldn't be better.

Su Wen muttered to Su Banxi what is the use of picking this weed-like thing. Su Banxi was afraid that Su Wen would not be able to pick mint, but it would be bad if he lost the cooling properties of mint, so he also squatted down and taught Su Wen how to pick mint leaves. I was taken aback when I asked, but after picking a few scraps at the beginning, I got started, and after a while, I picked a lot, and Su Banxi said enough.

Maybe it was because the sun was too hot, or maybe it was because Su Banxi, who was anemic, got dizzy when she stood up, her face was so pale that she almost fell to the ground, so startled that Su Wen hurriedly supported her She asked anxiously: "Banxi, how are you? Why can't you stand upright? I told you to stay at home. Come on, come up and I will carry you back, and then I will go to Sun Langzhong again." Let me show you."

Su Banxi looked at Su Wen who was squatting in front of her, twitched the corners of her mouth and tried not to smile, and waited until the dizziness passed before she said to Su Wen: "Brother, I'm fine, it's not a serious problem, just take a rest Now, I can go by myself, I don’t need to bother the master and his old man.”

Su Banxi didn't expect Su Wen to be so stubborn, insisting on carrying her back, the reasons she gave made Su Banxi dumbfounded and deeply moved.

"No, come up quickly and I will carry you back. If I let mother know that you are dizzy and I let you walk back, mother will beat me up. If you don't want me to be beaten, then be obedient and ask brother to carry you back!"

In the end, Su Banxi didn't hold back Su Wen, and obediently let him carry him back. Su Shi woke up not long after Su Banxi went out, and was a little anxious when he saw Su Banxi's absence, for fear that Su Lin would take advantage of this It was time to take Su Banxi away, and when he was anxious to move his legs to the ground, there was a sound at the gate that made him crane his neck to look, and saw Su Wen carry Su Banxi back, so he panicked all of a sudden .

"Small question, what's wrong with Ban Xi?"

"Father, I'm fine, I'm just a little dizzy. My brother has made a big fuss and has to carry me back, which makes you worry." Su Banxi was very embarrassed when she said this, and quickly jumped off Su Wen's back. Some mint leaves fell to the ground. Su Wen didn't let Su Banxi squat down to pick it up. He picked it up and handed it to Su Banxi. Seeing that her face looked much better than before, he stopped to look for Lang Sun, and told her not to run around. Rest and go to the fields.

Su Banxi smiled at Su Shi, and went to the kitchen with a handful of mint leaves in his arms. Su Shi was relieved to see that Su Banxi was doing well, and after thinking about it, he shouted loudly: "Banxi, don't be so busy, come and accompany Dad say something."
