Druid's Country Retirement

The fat boss was so frightened that he quickly raised his hands as if surrendering and explained in panic, "I didn't do anything, I didn't do anything!!"

When everyone heard the movement, they turned their heads and looked this way.

"Old Lu, what's wrong?" Ouyang Hua frowned.

Lu Dayou raised his cell phone and said, "Boss Ou, this fat guy secretly filmed Doctor Li with his cell phone."

Ah!

Ouyang Hua's expression instantly turned gloomy. Maybe he has been in the village for a long time recently, and he feels that he has a good temper. If I buy you a tree, you dare not do anything to him.

"Boss Ou, no, listen to me." The fat boss felt cold all over when Ouyang Hua glanced at him and explained quickly.

At this time, Li Hongbing also found a location to plant ginkgo. When he discovered that there was a conflict between the two parties, he shouted angrily, "That's nonsense. Hurry up and plant the tree. It's getting dark. You guys are fine. I still have one." A lot of trouble."

After hearing what his brother-in-law said, Ouyang Hua temporarily put aside the trouble with the fat boss and told Lu Dayou to move the tree quickly. The big thing was not as big as his daughter's.

"Come on!"

Others also came to help. A ginkgo tree over 8 meters high was planted in the open space on the left side near the gate.

As for what he said, Li Hongbing didn't explain, and everyone was too embarrassed to ask.

After all the trees were planted, the empty yard became alive.

The fat boss knew that he had just offended Boss Ou, so he quickly asked someone to bring out root growth supplements and nutrition packs, as a favor to ease the awkward atmosphere.

"Wait a minute, what are you talking about!" Li Hongbing stopped him.

At this moment, the fat boss did not dare to underestimate the farmer in front of him and said humbly, "Fellow, this is a rooting agent and a nutritional package. The survival rate of trees planted outdoors during the current season is very low, especially for such big trees. You can only use rooting agent." Only 50% hope to make a living."

Five percent!

That's your level.

Li Hongbing waved his hand, "No need for rooting agent, it will damage the vitality of the tree."

While talking, he walked to the well, took a bucket of water, stirred it with his hands, then returned to the yard with the bucket, and watered the newly planted trees one by one.

"Okay, the tree is alive. You can go and do whatever you need to do. Don't stay in the yard."

Is this a living? ?

How can you plant a tree like this? Even if you don't use a rooting agent, you need to water it thoroughly just after planting so that the tree roots can take root. But Li Hongbing only used a bucket of water and poured water on the trunk and leaves.

Playing house!

Even Lu Dayou didn't believe that trees could be planted alive in this way.

It doesn’t matter if you don’t believe it, but you can’t help but listen to Dr. Li’s words.

Everyone hurriedly put away their tools and left Ouyang Hua's house. The fat boss was still reluctant to leave when he left. In the end, he left his contact information and said that he could come to Li Hongbing for advice when he was free.

The workers walked out of the door, and Wang Qian, Aunt Jinhua, and several sisters-in-law walked into the yard carrying large bundles of dry mugwort.

"Hong Bing, see if these wormwood can be used. Aunt Jinhua took me around the village. I borrowed all the wormwood at home. See if it works."

Li Hongbing casually picked up one, broke it off and smelled it. A faint scent of mugwort surrounded the tip of his nose.

Fresh moxa leaves are quickly sun-dried and have a pungent smell. In contrast, moxa leaves that have been stored for more than a year have a lighter smell. Only after being exposed to wind and sun can the medicinal properties in the moxa be brought out.

"How is it?" Sister-in-law Wang Qian asked nervously.

Li Hongbing nodded, "Yes, three years of Chen Ai, good stuff."

call!

The worry on Sister-in-law Wang Qian's face melted away and she breathed a sigh of relief, "Use it if you can. I've written it down. Why don't you ask the sisters-in-law to come over and help."

Aunt Jinhua, Sister Yuzhi, Sister Tiemei, Sister Chunlan, and Sister Xiu'e waved their hands one after another.

"Why are you helping me? I am idle."

"No, they are all neighbors. Let me know if you have any questions."

"Just tell me how to do it. What are you talking about?"

"Well, half of it is used to boil water for washing the floor, half of it is used to smoke the house, and half of it is used to make door curtains."

Li Hongbing once again explained how to use mugwort, then suddenly remembered something and added another sentence.

"Let me stop running around tomorrow and take a bath every night with mugwort boiled water for half an hour each time."

"I know!" Sister-in-law Wang Qian nodded heavily.

After explaining, Li Hongbing walked to the corner of the courtyard wall and waved to Ouyang Hua, indicating that he had something to say.

"Brother-in-law, what's going on?"

Li Hongbing organized his words and said with a serious face, "I will give my daughter an acupuncture the day after tomorrow. I have something to ask you now. You must tell the truth, otherwise I will not be responsible for anything that goes wrong."

"Say it!" Ouyang Hua put away his casual expression.

Li Hongbing asked softly, "Have you ever done anything harmful to nature before my daughter got sick?"

Ouyang Hua was stunned for a moment and shook his head firmly, "No, I never bully others when doing business. I usually solve problems with money. You can rest assured about this."

"Then do you have a love debt, or does your sister-in-law have a love debt or something like that?"

"No, your sister-in-law and I were childhood sweethearts and were engaged by our parents. We have been together from elementary school to university, and we have no love debt."

Seeing that Ouyang Hua's expression didn't look like he was lying, Li Hongbing nodded and said to himself, "That's good. I didn't bully others with power, and there was no love debt. I guess I met a lonely ghost."

孤魂野鬼？？

When Ouyang Hua heard this word, he was stunned at first, then looked unbelieving.

No matter what age, they still practice feudal superstition.

"Don't ask, you won't understand even if I say it. Just do as I say." Li Hongbing blocked Ouyang Hua's mouth first.

There are many people who believe in this kind of thing, and there are many people who do not believe in it. In the lineage of Taoist medicine, there are many strange things, many of which cannot be explained by science.

Even in this era of advanced technology, traditional Chinese medicine cannot give a clear explanation.

Science focuses on natural phenomena and does not involve supernatural explanations.

The objects of scientific research can be known through observation; these characteristics can be described in generally accepted ways; one person can perceive it, and others can also perceive it; the basic characteristics do not change due to time and space; science is open , is never "done".

Traditional Chinese medicine does not have the above attributes at all levels.

For example, the structure of the human body in Chinese medicine, including qi and blood, organs, and meridians, are constantly changing, and many of them are unobservable.

Traditional Chinese medicine talks about "qi", but until today, no one can say what "qi" in traditional Chinese medicine is, and traditional Chinese medicine doctors in the past dynasties have different opinions.

The various concepts and disease symptoms of traditional Chinese medicine cannot be described in a generally accepted way.

For example, the most important pulse diagnosis in traditional Chinese medicine involves feeling the "indescribable" various pulse conditions on both sides with your fingers to determine the equally "indescribable" external and internal conditions of the body.

Take the Chinese medicine practitioner's proud practice of detecting the pulse to diagnose pregnancy as an example. The so-called "sliding pulse" of the pregnancy pulse means that no one else can detect it except the Chinese medicine practitioner himself. The perceptions of different Chinese medicine practitioners can also be different. For example, the diagnostic results given by different Chinese medicine practitioners through taking the pulse of a fetus can be different.

The basic theory of traditional Chinese medicine, which is based on the unity of man and nature and the five elements of yin and yang, was established about 2000 years ago. It seems that since its establishment until today, this theoretical system has been perfect and cannot tolerate any doubt.

It is precisely because of this that the fundamental problem arises: Traditional Chinese medicine says that "science cannot explain traditional Chinese medicine," and no one can question traditional Chinese medicine.

Even though various foreign research institutes want to get a glimpse of the secrets of traditional Chinese medicine.

But facing the theory of yin and yang and the five elements in traditional Chinese medicine, there is no way to start, let alone the twelve meridians and 409 acupuncture points of acupuncture, which can make scientists scratch their scalps and daunt them.

Seeing Li Hongbing's resolute attitude, Ouyang Hua could only let go of the entanglements in his heart and change the topic, "By the way, Mr. Fei is already on his way to the village. I hope to meet you."

"Okay, let's set up a table in the cafeteria, and I'll take care of Mr. Fei." Li Hongbing still respected Mr. Fei very much. Although his medical skills were a little bit behind, his character was not bad.

Come to the village.

Because the weather is getting colder, many activities have been suspended, causing the number of tourists to drop by 80%, and the remaining tourists are staying in small B&Bs.

The small square is no longer as lively as it used to be, and there are many fewer stalls.

While waiting for Fei Lao, Li Hongbing took the time to come to the new village committee. Since the village was on the right track, he, the nominal village chief, rarely visited the village committee for ten days and a half.

Pushing open the office door, Jianjun, Fang Wanda, Chunsheng and several captains gathered around the brazier, discussing something.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, everyone turned around to see the person coming, and stood up to greet him with expressions of surprise.

"Hey, who is this?"

"The sun hits the west and the village chief comes to the village committee."

"No wonder the magpies were chirping on the branches early in the morning. It turns out that there are distinguished guests coming to the door."

Facing the laughter and ridicule of everyone, Li Hongbing's face felt a little hot inexplicably. Fortunately, he was already used to this kind of sarcasm, so he walked to the brazier and sat down.

"I remember that when the village committee built it, it installed a wood-burning stove, but it was still heating a brazier."

"I'm used to it, the brazier makes it comfortable." Jianjun picked up the tongs and pulled away the ashes from the edge of the brazier, dug out a handful of peanuts, knocked off the ashes, and handed it to Li Hongbing.

Li Hongbing was not polite when he took the peanuts. He broke open the shells and ate them. The new peanuts were delicious when roasted and left a fragrant aroma in his mouth.

"what's the topic?"

Chunsheng also picked up a peanut, "What the hell, Mr. Muzhu said that this day is wrong this year. It's cold early and it's likely to snow heavily. We plan to prepare in advance."

"Well, Mr. Yandian also said that the clouds are low, so we should make plans early." Li Defa added.

Heavy snow! !

Li Hongbing stopped peeling peanuts.

Rural areas have always ignored official weather forecasts because they have their own way of looking at the weather. Our ancestors have summed up some experience through long-term observation, repeated practice, and exploration, and expressed it in simple language, which is called farmers' proverbs. Old saying.

Farmer's proverbs are divided into many categories, one of which is about predicting weather changes based on phenological conditions. Nine out of ten farmers' proverbs are true, and they are this type of old saying.

The most powerful thing about this kind of farmer's proverb is that it can predict the weather for one year or even the next year.

Rural elders are generally familiar with farmers' proverbs and old sayings. They rarely read weather forecasts and rely on them to predict weather changes and natural disasters.

What does it look like? If it is sunny and foggy for a long time, it will become overcast. If it rains and it rains for a long time, it will clear up.

Once the sun appears, we don't see each other for three days.

There are carp spots in the sky, and there is no need to turn over the grain tomorrow.

It rains in the morning and then clears up, and it rains until dawn in the evening.

One autumn rain and one cold, ten autumn rains put on cotton.

The water tank is sweating and the toads are chirping, and there will be heavy rain soon.

Swallows fly low in the snake aisle, and ants wear hats on moving mountains.

Farmer's proverbs are the crystallization of the wisdom of our ancestors. Farmer's proverbs are also the summary of our ancestors' experience. They have been passed down from generation to generation and can still guide farmers to predict weather changes and natural disasters so that they can prepare defenses in advance.

Since Cigarette Number and Uncle Muddle-headed both said it was going to snow heavily, they were probably right.

Li Hongbing thought for a moment, "How did you prepare?"

Fang Wanda said first.

"On the tourist side, I plan to publish an announcement online first, close the reservation channel, and tell the tourists in the B&B courtyard to ask them to leave the village as soon as possible. If they are willing to continue to stay, the B&B logistics will prepare firewood and coal for the winter in advance."

Immediately afterwards, Jianjun also reported the village's plan.

"Here in the village, we are planning to go around the village inside and outside in the next few days. Dangerous houses have been fixed in advance. The village committee has also prepared some supplies in advance, such as rice, flour, grain and oil, wood and coal, to prevent snow and mountain closures. There’s a shortage of supplies.”

Li Hongbing agreed with the two people's plan, "Don't forget the elderly in the village and the five-guarantee households. I sent some coal last time. Remember to send some more firewood. Just keep it to the public account."

"By the way, remember to organize a reserve team of villagers. If it snows, they must patrol regularly, especially the lonely elderly people in the village."

Everyone nodded, secretly sighing that now that the village has money, they don’t have to be afraid to do anything. Not to mention, it snowed heavily last year, and every family had to sweep the snow in front of their house, not to mention preparing winter supplies or borrowing firewood. Reluctantly.

After finishing talking about the business, Li Hongbing changed the topic and looked at Fang Wanda with a smile.

"I heard that your relationship with Lian Qian has grown by leaps and bounds. In the past two days, you have dared to come in and out of each other openly and spread dog food everywhere."

Fang Wanda blushed and denied it shyly, "No way, I just got closer to the medicinal diet."

Immediately, Jianjun jumped out with envy and hatred, exposing Wan Wanda's hypocritical character.

"You call it close. Breakfast is delivered in the morning, lunch is delivered at noon, and dinner is delivered in the evening. All we need is a warm bed."

Chunsheng snorted and sneered.

"No, I insisted on drinking the first pot of soy milk from Lao Liang's house. I squatted in front of Lao Liang's house before dawn. Those who didn't know it thought I was attracting thieves."

Sun Lianqian is now recognized as the number one village beauty in Caogou Village, and with the blessing of Li Hongbing, all the bachelors in the village do not want to marry into the family. Except for Li Hongqi and Xiucai, they are all thinking about the three firewood in the school. Girl, my wife got pregnant without even getting through the door.

Leaving aside these two people, the remaining bachelors would often pretend to be sick and go to the infirmary when they had nothing to do. When Sun Lianqian found out, she deliberately used rhubarb laxatives and almost killed these old bachelors, but they still enjoyed it.

Just when the old bachelors were fighting over who could win the first village beauty in Caogou Village, Fang Wanda, an old thief, unexpectedly succeeded in secretly hunting in the jungle. This made the old bachelors furious and agreed to advance and retreat together. This bird People break their oaths.

Diarrhea cannot be in vain.

Anyone who betrays his brothers will be killed!

In the past two days, Fang Wanda always encountered bad luck. She stepped on dog poop when she went out, the toilet door was locked, her bath changed from hot water to cold water, and there was an inexplicable amount of sand in her eating bowl.

Fang Wanda knew clearly who was responsible for all the above-mentioned bad incidents. Maybe Jianjun and Chunsheng around him were also involved.

But it doesn’t matter!

I'm about to land ashore, so I'll take it as a blessing to suffer a little loss.
