Qibao picked some loquats, cored and peeled them, then poured the processed loquats into the pot and started boiling them. During this period, she could not add a drop of water, but Lingquan water was different from ordinary water.
Qibao only put two drops of spiritual spring water in. After all, it was too much at one time. If He Jie recovered immediately, others would definitely be suspicious. As long as he is allowed to recover when the school is built, the amount in between must be carefully controlled.
When it was almost done, Qibao took out some rock sugar from the kitchen and put it in, then turned to low heat and continued to simmer. When it was almost done, she also put in the Sichuan clams.
After boiling it until it was thick and black, Qibao sealed it up in a container and packed a total of two jars, intending to have Kui Wu stop by tomorrow to deliver it to He Jie, who lived in the Leshan Pharmacy, and wrote a note telling him how to drink it before she packed the stuff away.
Xiaoling watched from the sidelines and said at the end: "You humans can be so troublesome, your physical fitness is really not good, where as like me, I've never had any illness."
Qibao ignored him, wondering how you, a fox, could compare to a human being.
After she took the packaged loquat paste out of the space, she handed the loquat paste to Kui Wu and explained a few words to him, and Kui Wu patted his chest and guaranteed that it would definitely be delivered to He Jie's hands.
The next day, after Kui Wu sent the seven young masters to the entrance of the college, he immediately went to Leshan Pharmacy and personally delivered the loquat paste to He Jie.
He Jie was a little surprised when he heard Kui Wu's story. He didn't expect that the Xu family would send medicine to treat the cough so quickly.
Shopkeeper Hong looked even more anxious than He Jie and said: "He Jie, you first follow the instructions on the note." He then took another spoon from the kitchen and handed it to He Jie.
He Jie looked at the dark paste in the jar and thought it would be very bitter. After he was prepared, he picked up a spoon and took a spoonful. He put it in his mouth and followed the instructions without rushing to swallow it.
After taking the loquat paste into his mouth, what surprised him was that it was not bitter at all, but sweet. It was the most delicious medicine he had ever tasted.
It took about a minute or two before he swallowed the loquat paste in his mouth.
Mother He asked quickly: "Jie'er, how do you feel?"
Shopkeeper Hong also nodded and waited for He Jie's answer.
He Jie smacked his lips. The cool feeling in his mouth made him feel particularly comfortable and he said: "Mom, shopkeeper Hong, I feel a cool sensation in my mouth, and my always itchy throat has been relieved a lot, and I feel much better."
A surprised smile appeared on Mother He's face. She was holding on to her last glimmer of hope. She heard her son say that he was much more comfortable than before, not to mention how excited he was.
Seeing that He Jie didn't cough after saying these words, Shopkeeper Hong said happily: "He Jie, this medicine is useful for you, just follow the instructions and take it on time and in the right amount every day! I didn't expect it! The Xu family gave me such a big surprise again."
He Jie also saw a glimmer of hope, knowing that his illness would not be cured in a short while. Now that there was a possibility of cure, he had to seize this opportunity no matter what.
He's mother said: "Jie'er, when your illness is cured, you must thank the Xu family. He is a great benefactor to us, mother and son!"
He Jie nodded, and shopkeeper Hong on the side also laughed and said: "He Jie you just need to do a good job with this teaching, that's the greatest thing you can do for the Xu family!"
After hearing this, He Jie's mother and son secretly resolved in their hearts that they could not let their benefactor down.
Shopkeeper Hong rolled his eyes and didn't know what he was thinking. He touched his chin and giggled.
When He Jie, mother and son saw Shopkeeper Hong standing aside, they suddenly giggled. Some were confused and some looked at each other. Mother He said: "Shopkeeper Hong, are you...are you okay?"
Shopkeeper Hong immediately returned to reality and replied: "It's okay, I haven't had breakfast yet! I'm a little hungry."
Mother He immediately said: "I'll go to the kitchen to make breakfast, Shopkeeper Hong, wait a moment, it'll be ready soon."
Since Mother He arrived at Leshan Pharmacy yesterday, she has prepared every meal for herself, and will help with cleaning when she has nothing to do.
Shopkeeper Hong couldn't stop her even if he wanted to, so he simply let her do it. Fortunately, Mother He's cooking skills were pretty good.
After Kui Wu returned home, he told Qibao about He Jie's reaction after taking loquat paste. Qibao smiled faintly. This loquat paste did not exist in ancient times and it is blessed by spiritual spring water. The effect will be immediate, but taking it once will not cure the disease. When it will be cured, it probably won't take long.
Another half month passed quickly, and the crayfish ponds and fish ponds dug in the village began to take shape. Seeing that the area was very huge, Qibao dug another fish pond next to the crayfish pond. It would always be beneficial to diversify.
The village chief's house can also be roofed in two days. There are villagers go to visit every day, it's bright a smile on everyone's face in the village chief's family. This new house is loved by all the members of their family, and there are many rooms and spaciousness, not knowing how many times better it is than the house they used to live in!
In the past two days, the old man often took his three sons and some servants to the river. At the narrowest point of a river, he intercepted the water with mud, and dug a ditch leading to the crayfish pond.
After everything is dug, the crayfish pond is also dug. At this time, several men are arranged to drive down from the upstream with bamboo poles. After the crayfish is frightened, it flows along the river from the ditch to the crayfish pond.
Qibao looked at the water flowing down. There were many crayfish mixed in it. Although this method was not the best, it was still much faster than catching them one by one.
When the water was almost empty, Qibao bent down and pretended to play with the water. In fact, she secretly drew some spiritual spring water from space and put it into the crayfish pond.
The old man also asked people to throw in a lot of water plants that can survive in the water.
Qibao intends to plant some willows by the pond so that she won't be exposed to the sun when she sits under the trees and fishes in the summer, and willows are best suited to be planted by the water's edge, there is a poem called: Willow brush silver pond, and never deep green only light yellow, might not be able to dip the willow, willow shadow in the water to lead their growth.
The day finally came when the village chief's house was roofed. The village chief was thinking about hosting a banquet to treat everyone to a meal, but the old man said: "No, every family will have a new house in the future, so we can't hold a banquet for every family, right? That would be too busy."
The village chief nodded and felt that the old man was right, so he discussed it with the villagers and everyone agreed.
The next step is to build a school. Every villager in Xujia Village is very concerned about this matter. After all, it is about the future of their children, so they cannot be careless.
After choosing a suitable place, everyone started digging the foundation non-stop. Although the entire area of the school was quite large, it was more than enough to accommodate all the children in Xujia Village.
Qibao estimated that by the time the school was completed, it would be almost the end of autumn.
The Xujia Village was busy every day, while far away in the palace in the capital, Jing Chen just walked to the gate of Shoukang Palace and planned to pay his respects to his grandmother, but he met a young man walking towards him.
"Is Third Imperial Brother also here to greet grandmother? What a coincidence, Imperial Brother is also here to greet grandmother, how about we go together instead?"
Jing Chen nodded lightly, without saying a word, and walked towards Shoukang Palace ahead of the person who spoke.
The person behind him narrowed his eyes, his eyes darkened, and then put on a warm smile and followed him into the door of Shoukang Palace.
As soon as Jing Chen entered the door, he saw a woman wearing a gorgeous dress, a head of jewelry, and a smile on her face sitting next to his grandmother, and he didn't know what she was talking about.
