"It doesn't hurt as much anymore, but the swelling hasn't gone away either."
When Ms. Yang heard what her husband said, she couldn't help laughing and said, "It's not a magical elixir. How can it be so fast?"
"Since it doesn't hurt so much, it shows that it is still effective." Su Qingluan also nodded, "Uncle Liang would be very happy if he knew about it."
Su Qingluan made some preparations when she went out today.
She found a pair of old shoes that Su Xuanhe had worn out before.
Although this kid is not as tall as Su Qingluan, the shoes on his feet are already the right size for Su Qingluan's feet.
Su Qingluan asked Su Guangfu to take a few copper nails and drive the tips downward into the soles of the shoes. Yang was afraid that the nails would scratch her feet, so she added a layer of insoles to Su Qingluan's shoes and patched up the worn holes in the shoes.
Wearing the newly released "nail shoes", Su Qingluan deliberately tried the "foot feel" in the muddiest and slipperiest place in the yard.
The effect was remarkable. Although the nail shoes could not prevent her from getting the uppers and clothes wet, at least they would not slip easily anymore.
And because the nails separate the soles from the puddles by a shallow height difference, it also prevents rainwater from soaking into the shoes from the soles to a certain extent.
Not to mention Yang and Su Guangfu, even the two little guys gathered around Sister and were eager to try on the "nail shoes".
"These shoes don't fit you. Besides, it's a matter of discretion. Don't even think about it, you two!" Su Qingluan pinched the tips of the two little guys' noses.
Needless to say, my sister is still young, but my brother's feet are already a bit bigger than the shoes on Su Qingluan's feet - otherwise, the old shoes would not burst.
What's more, the shoes "modified" in this way are very difficult to walk on ordinary surfaces. Although they can play an anti-slip role on ice in winter, because they are single shoes, it is inevitable that your feet will freeze.
In short, modification is very expensive, and the scope of use is very limited. Unless it is absolutely necessary or you have money to spare, the cost-effectiveness of this "nail shoe" is not particularly high.
But for now, these "nail shoes" are just right for Su Qingluan, who has to walk several miles of muddy mountain roads.
Along the way, the spiked shoes on her feet firmly dug the tips into the mud. No matter how slippery the ground was, Su Qingluan could walk smoothly over it, avoiding falling into the mud or being thrown around like other people. status.
However, after avoiding slipping, the shoes are not without problems - sometimes the shoes are too deep into the mud and it is difficult to pull out the feet, so Su Qingluan almost pulled out the feet several times. , leaving the shoes where they are.
After stumbling along the way, we finally arrived at the county seat.
The heavy rain last night made the road muddy. The road from Huaxi Village to the county seat is not as good as other places.
The most intuitive evidence is that although the opening drum has been beating for more than half an hour, the town that was originally bustling with people is now much deserted - probably the pedestrians passing by or the vendors are wrestling with a puddle of mud on the road. Be brave.
Su Qingluan first went to "Nong Mo Xuan" to try his luck to see if Mr. Xu Kekuan was there.
She was lucky. Mr. Xu obviously came early in the morning. He smiled when he saw her: "Miss Su, did you come so early today?"
Su Qingluan placed the food box containing "Ant Dali Pills" on the table in front of Mr. Xu with both hands: "Isn't this because I want to give you the 'Yiqi Pills'?"
"It's hard for Su Xiaoyou to worry so much about this old piece of wood." Xu Kekuan smiled and stroked his goatee. He winked at the clerk who was sorting the shelves behind the counter. The clerk nodded and took a hand-width, small handbag from behind. A flat box with short arms.
Xu Kekuan handed the box to Su Qingluan and said with a smile: "This is my little thought, little friend, please accept it."
Su Qingqing waved his hands quickly: "I can't do this, old man. I'm not doing this just to thank you for the gift..."
"I know that, but my friend, this meatball must have taken a lot of effort." Xu Kekuan said meaningfully.
Su Qingluan said half truthfully: "This thing is very simple, it's just some ordinary ingredients..."
"How can it be 'extremely simple'?" Xu Kekuan looked at the food box that Su Qingluan brought over, "Although I don't know what recipe Su Xiaoyou used, but the ingredients such as garlic and rice bran that this bad old man like me doesn't like are mixed with food. I can't eat it at all, I remember this friendship in my heart."
Su Qingluan was startled when he heard this, and then asked softly with some guilt: "You...you know..."
"Hehehehe..." Xu Kekuan said with a kind smile, "I have a familiar doctor in my family who is an old friend of mine. With such a relationship, how could my family be willing to let me eat snacks that may conflict with the medicine while I am ill?"
So from the beginning, the "tea snacks" that Su Qingluan brought over had been "tested for ingredients." Naturally, even if Mr. Xu Kekuan couldn't taste what was added to it, if he really knew how to make it, he would ", you can naturally detect the special smell of garlic.
Seeing Su Qingluan's expression of "I've been caught doing bad things", Xu Kekuan patted her shoulder gently: "Why do you have such an expression, little friend Su? You have such good intentions, but you go to great lengths to let me eat garlic. I thank you for your return." It’s too late.”
"But after all, this is something you don't like to eat..."
"However, I ate a lot, didn't I?" Xu Kekuan shook his head, "Maybe there are many things I don't like, but as long as I don't preconceptionally think they are unpalatable, they may not be so difficult to eat. But, how did you think of giving it to me? What if I eat 'tea snacks' with garlic and rice bran added in?"
Seeing that Xu Kekuan didn't mean to blame her, Su Qingluan gradually relaxed and explained: "I heard you talk about the symptoms of the disease before, and when I was chatting with you, I paid attention to your eating habits, and I knew that you were Got 'beriberi'."
"Hehehe... I didn't expect that this old guy like me is still very picky, didn't I?"
"Everyone has their own preferences..." Su Qingluan muttered, "But your disease can be cured by just correcting your diet, and it won't happen again. Isn't it very cost-effective?"
Xu Kekuan nodded: "Young friend Su is right, I will try not to be picky in the future."
Su Qingluan nodded: "Yes, you can enjoy more delicious food this way!"
"This is all the result of Su Xiaoyou, so..." Xu Kekuan pushed the box in front of Su Qingluan again, "Young Su, please don't refuse this gift - I promise, you will like it."
After Mr. Xu said this, Su Qingluan became a little curious about the gift. After repeatedly refusing, Su Qingluan decided to see what the gift was first.
But at this time, two customers came in one after another. Mr. Xu saw this and tapped Su Qingluan's hand that was about to open the lid of the box with the handle of his brush: "Don't be impatient, little friend. Let's go back and take a look."
kindness? Su Qingluan was even more curious: So mysterious?
