Chapter 258 Pueraria root powder skin
"Haha, you have to be clever, this thing is very slippery."
This time, Boss Zhou picked it up carefully and finally put it into his mouth, but before he could chew it, it slipped down his throat.
He tasted nothing but spiciness!
"Cough cough..." He coughed several times due to the spiciness, and everyone laughed.
Pueraria vermicelli tastes really slippery and can easily slide down your throat if you're not paying attention.
But the only one who actually slid down was Boss Zhou.
"Eat slowly. You're almost a grandfather, why are you still acting like a little kid?"
Old Mrs. Zhou came over from the kitchen, washing two spoons, and smiled at everyone at the table.
With a spoon, eating is much more convenient.
Mr. Zhou ate several mouthfuls and found the vermicelli to be really delicious.
He felt it was even more delicious than jelly.
"If it's delicious, eat more. We've eaten it several times at home, but you're the only one who hasn't eaten it yet."
Mrs. Zhou smiled.
Zhou Mingshu took a spoon and drank a bowl of tofu soup to warm himself up, and then slowly started to eat his meal.
"Uncle, please tell us what the military camp looks like."
"Okay, I'll tell you what I saw."
When Boss Zhou spoke, everyone at the table quieted down and listened to him slowly.
Boss Zhou started from the county town and headed west, telling him everything he saw along the way.
He could specify every body movement and every word, including who wanted to be his brother, who was shivering from the cold, and who took the pills he gave.
Everyone enjoyed listening.
But when they arrived at the destination, no one could laugh anymore.
Everyone knows that the conditions at the border are bad, but no one expected the environment to be so severe.
The further west you go, the fewer villages and trees there are, and the dead grass all over the ground makes it seem even more desolate.
The snow is thicker than at home, and the wind is colder than at home.
"The wind was so strong that it felt like a knife cutting my face. I applied a lot of body lotion and wrapped my scarf tightly around my neck, but the wind still blew in. There was no place to hide."
After hearing this, everyone was sad for a long time.
"But I am lucky. Some of the guys almost froze to death because their clothes were too thin. Even Wang Yuquan caught a cold. I gave Shouan's quilt to him and asked him to cover himself with it first..."
"Alas, the military camp was even more desolate. I saw a pile of rocks at the gate. I couldn't go in, so I sat at the gate and chatted with Shou'an. I saw that it was very strict inside. Everyone was wearing iron helmets and armor, with swords on their waists, and some were holding guns... They didn't even smile when they talked to them. I was a little scared when I saw them."
"The most regrettable thing is that I didn't meet General Qi. Shou'an said that General Qi was in the same military camp with him, and he was also a subordinate of General Qi's son. He could see the high official from time to time."
Everyone laughed again when they heard this.
"Father, Uncle Shou'an can see the general, and you also saw Uncle Shou'an, so your 'rounding' is equivalent to seeing General Qi."
"Jack, that's not how you use 'rounding'."
"Huh? Okay."
No one knew what the two kids were talking about, but they were still very happy.
"It's a great pleasure to go out and see the world. I heard from people there that it snows frequently, and when it snows the foreigners fight hard. It's really worrying."
But no matter what, they don't have to worry about these things.
These peasants can't even read a single word and can't do much except running errands.
The food in front of him was tempting, so Boss Zhou took the hot steamed bun and stuffed it into his stomach.
The life on the way back and forth is not what a normal person can live, it is really too hard.
However, if he were given another chance to choose, he would still go.
"This cured pork ribs is really good, very delicious. This roasted pork belly is also very good, fragrant, the more you chew it, the more fragrant it is~"
Boss Zhou praised the meal repeatedly, which made Mrs. Zhou feel distressed.
I haven't had a normal meal for a while. Look how miserable I am.
Just after lunch, young people from the village came over to chat.
A group of people gathered in the main room, eating melon seeds and drinking tea, listening to Boss Zhou and Wang Yuquan talk about what happened on the road.
Everyone listened with great interest.
After listening to it once, I felt as if I was there, and I felt like I had also gone out for a run like this.
The main point is that having heard of it is equivalent to having experienced it.
Apart from studying in class, Zhou Mingshu and his friends make soap in the small courtyard. The most troublesome thing every day is thinking about what to eat next.
There is no peak or off-peak season for soap; as long as it can be made, there is no need to worry about selling it.
Now that they have stable "distributors", they can make a lot of money running the business like this.
But the new house in the courtyard is relatively large, and it seems a bit empty in winter.
Every time they came, they had to carry a stove.
We have enough clothes and quilts this year, so we have had a warm winter.
These girls didn't do much work, so their hands didn't get frostbite, and they were all white and clean.
……
Not long after Boss Zhou set out on his journey, the horn at the border was blown.
Not only did the Gentiles come, but also a snowstorm.
The white snow was dyed red with blood.
The wind was howling so hard that it was impossible to open one's eyes.
A great war is raging...
General Qi led his men to gallop on the battlefield and charge on horseback.
The base of his thumb was cracked and the blood had already coagulated, but he felt no pain and just swung the giant axe in his hand mechanically.
The commander-in-chief of the three armies is bound to become a thorn in the enemy's side.
There are too many people who want to take General Qi's head. Even with the protection of his personal guards, there are still gaps for him to be missed.
A stray arrow flew in from somewhere and hit his arm by chance.
Feeling pain in his right arm, General Qi broke the sword feather with one hand and continued fighting on the battlefield.
He must hold on until the last moment. With him around, these guys won't panic.
Qi Xu was fighting not far away. Even though he was a martial arts master with great strength, he couldn't help but suffer a lot of injuries. But after all, it was his first time on the battlefield, and these were the experiences he deserved.
But when he saw his father injured, he panicked for the first time.
It was during this moment of panic that he received the most painful blow. Blood gushed out of his abdomen and he knelt down on one leg in pain.
Fortunately, there were many brothers around him who tried their best to protect him, so he managed to survive.
"Young Master, you are injured. Come with me to get yourself bandaged first."
Qi Xu's personal guards ignored his objections and carried him into the city.
At first he was still struggling and unwilling to retreat, but in the end he had no strength left and just let them do whatever they wanted.
The military doctor peeled off his armor and first used a cloth to apply pressure to stop the bleeding, causing him to grit his teeth in pain.
Finally, it was sewed together with needle and thread.
"Young Master, luckily the wound is not deep and has not damaged your internal organs, otherwise you would have been lying in bed for several months."
After the old military doctor treated Qi Xu's wound, he sprinkled anti-inflammatory powder on it and then wrapped it with clean cloth.
Other minor wounds were cleaned and some anti-inflammatory powder was applied.
