Chapter 631 Qiancheng Li Family
Huo Yisheng looked up at him and motioned for him to speak.
Political Commissar Lin: "On our way back this time, when we passed through Wumu Town, I went into the city."
According to their previous habit of going out on missions, in order to avoid exposing their whereabouts, they would not enter the city unless it was necessary to replenish their rations.
Political Commissar Lin: "I went to inquire about the current market price of grain. I was thinking, should I buy more now and store it?"
Huo Yisheng: "Well, I've already made an appointment with the higher-ups. There will definitely be a shortage of food in the wasteland this year, and the price will definitely go up. If we need food, we can only get it from other places."
Political Commissar Lin nodded and said, "You're right. The prices of the two stores in Wumu Town have already increased by two cents, and there are purchase restrictions and quantity limits. I estimate that the prices will increase even higher in the winter."
Because the weather in Wumu District is abnormal this year, it will definitely affect the grain harvest, and a rise in grain prices is inevitable.
Huo Yisheng: "Let's talk business."
Political Commissar Lin quickly changed the subject and said:
"When I entered the city, I found a team had arrived. I asked around and found out they were archaeological experts and scholars, and a professor from Jingcheng University was leading the team. It was said they were under orders from above to conduct protective excavations."
When he said that, Huo Yisheng understood: "The tomb robbery case before the New Year."
They came for the tomb that was robbed years ago.
Huo Yisheng: "What's so special about them?"
Political Commissar Lin: "I don't know."
He said it just to let Huo Yisheng know. After all, the distance was not too far. What if he bumped into them? He had to know the identity of the people staying next door.
Buckwheat gradually turns yellow. During the ripening process, light is very important and rain is also very important.
But unfortunately, it rains every few days these days, and the rain is too heavy, affecting the maturity and yield of buckwheat!
But there is no point in being anxious. If you rely on God for your livelihood, you have to bear God's unpredictable mood.
All people can do is to prepare in advance.
Huo Yisheng discussed with Ye Shu: "I will order a batch of grain from above, mix your grain in it, and then ship it back."
Ye Shu: "Okay, when do we leave?"
In order to do something without being noticed, they have to go to the place where the food is stored in advance, which means that Ye Shu and Huo Yisheng also have to go to Wumu Town.
Huo Yisheng's eyes fell on her big belly.
Ye Shu: "Don't worry, I'm fine. You decide when to go. I'll go down the river a day in advance. I guarantee that nothing will happen."
Huo Yisheng sighed and hugged her: "Okay, thank you for your hard work, daughter-in-law!"
Ye Shu also replied: "It's nothing, it just so happens that I haven't been out for a long time, so just take this as a chance for me to leave the camp and get some fresh air!"
Huo Yisheng: "Well, it should be about a week."
Ye Shu then asked about the newly arrived Chinese medicine doctor Li and his family.
Huo Yisheng: "It is indeed a well-known family of traditional Chinese medicine, but we still have to wait and see their specific character and talents."
Especially since there are so many people in their family, they must all have different temperaments and personalities.
Ye Shu understood: "Okay, I'll go see them tomorrow and ask them what their plans are."
Since we have brought people to the camp, we cannot just lock them up or let them eat for free. We must make the best use of them.
It is impossible to keep idle people in the camp. After all, food is quite tight now.
The next day, it started raining again.
There was nothing much to do in the infirmary. The soldiers went out to clear the land in the rain, and the women stayed at home to deal with wild vegetables, mushrooms and the like.
Pick out the fresh ones and put away the ones that are almost dry.
These are life-saving foods for everyone to survive the winter!
Ye Shu opened an umbrella and went to Camp No. 2.
The people here were not idle either. Because the rain was not heavy, the men went up the mountain to chop firewood, and the women stayed at home to pick wild vegetables and mushrooms.
Without the troublemakers, everyone else in Camp No. 2 can live a peaceful life.
Knowing that there will definitely be a food shortage this year, I started stockpiling food as soon as I had time.
As long as it's edible, stock up as much as possible.
Ye Shu went to see Lao Tian first. Lao Tian was in good spirits and his health had improved a lot after a period of recuperation.
When she went there, Lao Tian was writing something.
Seeing Ye Shu, he did not hide anything:
"My life is almost over, but I can't waste it, so I plan to write down what I've learned and some of the typical cases I've handled."
Ye Shu agreed: "This is a good thing."
Firstly, he has something to do and has hope in life. Even though he is now paralyzed and unable to walk, it is impossible for him to return to the medical field. At least he will no longer have wild thoughts and will not get into a dead end that will affect his health.
Secondly, Lao Tian is also a medical expert, and some of his insights and experiences are also a valuable asset for future generations.
Ye Shu took his pulse and found that he was indeed in good health. He then talked to Aunt Gu for a while.
She asked Aunt Gu, "Do you know where the new Li family of six lives?"
Aunt Gu: "It's on the west side of the second row at the back. I was given two rooms."
Now that this is mentioned, Aunt Gu can't help but ask about their origins.
Ye Shu did not hide anything and told the truth.
Aunt Gu sighed: "This world...ah..."
I couldn't help but look at my old man's legs, and my eyes became red unconsciously.
She quickly lowered her head and wiped away the tears that had unconsciously flowed down her face.
When Old Tian heard about the Li family, he became a little excited: "The surname is Li?..."
He obviously wanted to meet Mr. Li, but he immediately remembered that he was now paralyzed on one side of his body, so he had to swallow the words that were on the tip of his tongue.
He wants to see people, but he has to be able to go out by himself!
Ye Shu asked, "Do you know Dr. Li, the old Chinese doctor?"
Old Tian shook his head: "I don't know him, but I heard that the Li family in Qiancheng is a family of medicine that has been passed down for hundreds of years."
Because I have heard of it, I really want to meet it.
Ye Shu sat and chatted for a while, then went to Li's house.
All six members of the Li family were present.
When Ye Shu arrived, the old Chinese doctor Li was standing under the eaves in front of the door, with his hands behind his back watching the rain.
His wife and daughter-in-law were cleaning the house, and two other young men in their twenties were moving books. From time to time, some laughter and playfulness could be heard.
Ye Shu was a little surprised to hear the clear laughter.
But this is because she has good hearing and can hear clearly, so others should not have heard it?
The solemn expression on Dr. Li's face confirmed her guess.
It was precisely because of this that Ye Shu felt even more strange.
There was a lot of laughter and joy in the camp. Everyone had adapted to life and was having a happy and enjoyable time.
But, can someone who has left his hometown for the first time and encountered a sudden change at home laugh?
Maybe laugh.
But can you laugh so happily and freely?
When Dr. Li, the old doctor, saw Ye Shu coming in the rain, his eyes fell on her stomach. He quickly put away his solemn and worried expression and said seriously, "Comrade, are you here to take your pulse? Come in quickly, I'll take a look at you."
