Rebirth in the 70s: A military wife who was married into a vegetative state

"You can't just take other people's things for nothing. Nian Nian, when you go to Hekou Village tomorrow, bring the dried meat from home."

As she spoke, Li Youmei stood up, found a clean cloth bag, and poured all the extra meat she had made when making dried meat for Yu Luyuan and his brothers into the bag.

"Mom put it on the table for you. Don't forget it tomorrow."

"it is good."

An Nian glanced at the cloth bag on the corner of the table and continued to eat with his head down.

After the meal, An Nian went back to her room for daily study. She had now seen the high school part.

When sleeping at night, she specially placed the alchemy furnace outside the curtains so that it could continuously absorb energy.

-

three days later.

After two days and two nights of drying, the alchemy furnace was finally full of energy.

In the dead of night, An Nian put it in his arms and took it to the bamboo forest behind the ancestral hall.

These days, An Nian would go to the mountains for a couple of laps after get off work.

There are no magical herbs or elixirs in this world, but ordinary herbs also have certain medicinal properties.

An Nian had already memorized all the medicinal herbs in the traditional Chinese medicine dispensary of the county hospital. Common medicinal herbs could not escape her recognition range.

In the past few days, she found that her parents were a little angry, maybe because they were old, the weather was dry in winter, and they ate some fried food during the New Year.Both old men have some gastrointestinal problems, and they can be seen rubbing their stomachs from time to time.

An Nian picked some medicinal herbs on the mountain to help digestion and nourish Qi.

I just want to try it out with the alchemy furnace tonight to see if it can shine in this world.

After arriving at the bamboo forest, An Nian first released his spiritual power and walked around to make sure there was no one within a mile.

Then he sat down cross-legged with confidence, the alchemy furnace was placed in front of him, and the cleaned medicinal materials were lined up and placed aside for later use.

An Nian looked around, picked up a few flammable logs, and made a small fire. The flame was very small, ensuring that these logs would burn for a long time.

After doing all the preparations before refining the alchemy, it finally officially started.

I saw An Nian flipping her hands flexibly, and a faint white light condensed on her fingertips.

When the white light fell, the alchemy furnace on the ground suddenly floated upwards and circled in the air.

An Nian raised the corners of his mouth happily: "The link is still there, even if the spiritual power is insufficient, I should be able to use ordinary herbs to make a pill."

She raised her right hand slightly, and the upper part of the alchemy furnace, which had been tightly clasped together in one place, immediately floated up without any cracks after all kinds of beatings, looting, fires and other tortures.

The Sifang Ding, which was obviously very small, instantly expanded tenfold after the lid was opened.

It was originally only as big as a palm and as inconspicuous as a small wine glass, but now it is as large as a large bucket.

This size is the true appearance of the alchemy furnace, otherwise the medicinal materials placed on the ground cannot be put in.

Under An Nian's control, the herbs on the ground jumped into the alchemy furnace one by one.

Such ordinary herbs cannot withstand the refining of top-level alchemy furnaces. Even if ordinary flames are used, they turn into liquid almost as soon as they enter the alchemy furnace.

It only took a few minutes for the liquid medicine to be successfully refined.

The liquid medicine condenses into a ball and is suspended in the alchemy furnace. A few drops float out from time to time, which appears to be full of activity.

"It can be turned into a pill."

An Nian said to himself, his hand movements changed, and the Cheng Dan Jue was fired.

The liquid medicine seemed to be pinched by invisible hands and divided into six equal parts.

At the moment when the elixir was formed, the six pills seemed to have encountered a strong attraction, falling suddenly and spinning along the inner wall of the alchemy furnace.

"receive!"

An Nian gently held her right hand, and six pills flew out of the pill furnace and fell lightly into her palm.

He picked up one of the pills and looked at it in the firelight. The lines inside were as clear as the full moon.

A simple brown coat with a hint of starlight twinkling inside.

An Nian scraped off a little powder and felt it with spiritual power.

"It's done!"

She got up happily, packed up the things on the floor, put out the fire, and happily went home to sleep with six pills.

-

the next morning.

"It's very pretty." Li Youmei took the pill and looked at it over and over curiously. "Nian Nian, are you sure this is edible?"

Why does it look like a sugar pill?There seem to be flowers carved inside?Stars and moons and stuff?

"Yes, Mom, you give it a try." An Nian replied with a smile, "This is a hawthorn pill I made myself. I added a few herbs to nourish qi and strengthen the body. It is guaranteed to be pure and pollution-free."

Compared to Li Youmei's hesitation, Yu Zhengjun was much more decisive. He only glanced at it briefly, raised his head and ate it.

He was already prepared to frown and bear it, and had a glass of boiling water in his hand in advance. Unexpectedly, the pill was surprisingly delicious.

"It tastes good."

Li Youmei looked at him: "What does it smell like?"

Yu Zhengjun smacked his lips twice, feeling a little unsatisfied: "I can't put it into words, but it just feels delicious."

An Nian had already prepared everything. The water bottle and cloth bag were hung on the front of the bicycle, and he planned to push the bicycle out.

"Dad, you can't take more of this pill. Just take one pill a day."

"Oh, okay, I'll save the remaining two for tomorrow."

Yu Zhengjun had already picked up his hoe. Hearing this, he quickly took out the remaining pills from his pocket and put them back into the house.

Li Youmei spat at him, raised her head and ate without hesitation.

As expected of an old married couple, her reaction was exactly the same as Yu Zhengjun's.

"Oh, don't mention it, it really smells good!"

An Nian laughed, got on the bicycle, and made an explanation before going out.

"Mom, I have to go to work first. Today is the last day. I will leave the car at Xiao Nuan's house in the evening and walk out. I may get home late. You and Dad have dinner first, don't wait for me."

"Okay, I understand, please be careful on the road."

-

Even though it is winter, there is really a lot of work in the fields.

After the villagers in Lu'an Village registered their names with the village chief, they went to the ground each carrying their hoes.

Their task today is to plow the soil and apply fertilizer.

Some time ago, everyone burned the dried straw. The burned plant ash was mixed with homemade fertilizer from the farm and fermented for seven days. The fertilizer was completely ready.

While plowing the soil, you also need to mix all these fertilizers into the soil.

In an era when there was a shortage of chemical fertilizers, these fertilizers were very precious. Every farmer who went to the fields carefully turned over the land inch by inch and never wasted it.

"Lao Yu, are you going to the field alone today? Neither your mother-in-law nor your daughter-in-law are here?"

The woman who was only separated from Yu Zhengjun by a field said in a strange voice. She had long been dissatisfied with the Yu family. The women were raised like the delicate young ladies of the old society.

Yu Zhengjun and Zhou Zheng had a faint smile on their faces: "Yes, Yumei went to cut pigweed today."

Their village collectively raises five pigs, and arranges for people to cut pig grass every day. Because this job is relatively easy, each family usually takes turns.

"Her life is so good! Other families take turns cutting pigweed, but when it's your turn, she's the only one doing it."

"We don't have many family members."

Yu Zhengjun did not answer her question and only responded lightly.

The woman hummed, thinking of her sisters-in-law and the men. Every time it was her turn to cut pigweed, they would rush over it without giving up at all.

The two continued to hoe the ground and gradually distanced themselves.

"Ignore that bitch, she just likes to sow discord..."

In the field next door, a honest middle-aged man who heard the conversation between the two came over and whispered comfort.

Yu Zhengjun nodded: "I don't take it to heart...well..."

"what happened?"

Yu Zhengjun looked embarrassed: "I feel a little uncomfortable in my stomach..."

"Then go to the toilet quickly."

"it is good."

Yu Zhengjun originally wanted to keep his image and put the hoe on the field ridge first, but as soon as he took two steps, his stomach made a "gurgling" sound.

His expression changed slightly, he dropped his hoe and ran towards the toilet on the path!

He rushed into the toilet, and Yu Zhengjun was overjoyed.

Fortunately, the land he was assigned today was not far from the toilet, otherwise he would have had to find a haystack at this time!

After a moment of indescribable movement...

Yu Zhengjun walked out of the toilet with a happy face.

He has been constipated for five days. He feels like pooping every time. He goes to the toilet but can't poop anything out.

This feeling was really uncomfortable. My stomach was as hard as if I had carried more than ten kilograms of stones. It was so swollen that I felt completely drained of energy.

Yu Zhengjun touched his deflated belly and felt refreshed one after another!

He walked back to the ground with light steps and continued digging.

"Lao Yu? Why does your face become so rosy?"

"Ruddy?"

Yu Zhengjun touched his face, and a desire to share suddenly surged in his heart.

"Lao Zhang, let me tell you, my daughter-in-law is really considerate and awesome! She knew that her mother and I had been suffering from stomach discomfort and indigestion for the past two days, so she gave us a few pills this morning.

Don't tell me!This medicine is really amazing!I just went to the toilet!My whole body feels lighter! "

"real or fake?"

"What did I lie to you for!"

Yu Zhengjun stared, unhappy that his rare desire to share was rejected.

"Alas, that's not what I meant!"

When Lao Zhang saw Yu Zhengjun shaking his head and about to leave, he became anxious and ran over with a hoe on his shoulder.

Seeing that the two of them had only turned over a little bit of land, the others gathered together and murmured, shaking their heads secretly. If everyone's share is not completed, there will be no full work points.

"Lao Yu, my stomach has been feeling very uncomfortable these days. Look, it's so big!"

Lao Zhang didn't shy away from it at all. He pulled up his clothes and showed them to Yu Zhengjun.

Yu Zhengjun took one look and was startled.

"What's wrong with you? Your drum is so big and you don't even go to the doctor?"

"Why didn't you go? The barefoot doctor in the village gave me medicine. It's useless if I take it!"

Lao Zhang frowned.

Their village is relatively large and has a small health clinic. The barefoot doctor there can treat minor illnesses, but whether the illness can be cured depends on everyone's luck.

"I've had this belly for half a month. I have to eat every day. If I don't poop, I'm afraid it will ferment inside."

"It's a bit serious."

Yu Zhengjun reached out and touched it.

Lao Zhang's belly was very hard and cold to the touch. The bulging part was not round and had bulges, which looked very scary.

"Your daughter-in-law's medicine is so powerful, can you give me one too?"

The two talked for a long time, and Lao Zhang finally stated his purpose.

There was a prayer on his face: "Old Yu, I can't bear it anymore..."

Yu Zhengjun didn't want to agree.

There's no guarantee of cure. If he agrees, what if An Nian's medicine doesn't work?Wouldn't this cause her a lot of trouble?

"Lao Yu, you also know that my family's conditions are not good and I can't save a few dollars all year round. It's impossible to go to the county hospital for medical treatment..."

Even though Yu Luyuan stayed in the county hospital for several days, several members of the Yu family also went to the county town.

However, this is because the Yu family has a long way to go and has saved a lot of money over the years.

For other families in Lu'an Village, a trip to the county hospital would bankrupt them.

"If it doesn't go well, I'll have to carry it until I die."

Lao Zhang smiled bitterly and put down his clothes.

"If your daughter-in-law's medicine can cure me, she will be my Lao Zhang's benefactor. If it cannot be cured, it will be my life."

Yu Zhengjun looked at his sallow face and gritted his teeth.

"Okay! After work today, you come home with me and I'll let her show you!"

Lao Zhang was so excited that he grabbed Yu Zhengjun's hand and shook it hard.

"Lao Yu, thank you!"

"Don't thank me in a hurry. We'll talk about it tonight."

"it is good!"

Just hope!Lao Zhang clenched his fists, and the deathly aura in his eyes disappeared.

In the evening, after work, Yu Zhengjun took Lao Wang home.

As soon as I walked into the house, I heard my wife's voice. She was squatting by the well washing vegetables, with a relaxed look on her face, and she was humming a red song, very excited.

"Yume!"

"You're back? Are you hungry? You can eat some cucumber to cushion your stomach first. Nian Nian came back late today, so we'll have dinner later."

Li Youmei raised her head with a smile. Just after finishing her sentence, she saw Lao Zhang following Yu Zhengjun.

"Lao Zhang is here too? Let's sit in the hall for a while first!"

She quickly put down the basin, wiped the handle, and went into the house to pour water.

"Sister-in-law, there's no need to work, I'm just coming over to sit for a while."

Lao Zhang reluctantly refused.

"It's okay, it's rare for us to have guests come to our house."

Li Youmei poured hot water neatly, added some sugar, and served it to Lao Zhang.

Lao Zhang was not feeling well and his stomach felt uncomfortable, but when his nose smelled the sweetness, he couldn't hold it back and took a big sip.

Candy is a precious thing. I only buy some for the younger members of the family during holidays. The adults are reluctant to touch it.

Let Lao Zhang sit in the living room for a while.

Li Youmei went to the kitchen.

Yu Zhengjun washed the hoe and put it in the utility room, then came to find her.

"Yumei, have you had a bowel movement today?"

As an old married couple, they speak directly.

Li Youmei nodded excitedly: "I'm so happy today! I can't even remember the last time I felt so happy. I've never been this smooth after giving birth to Sheng Nan."

"Really? Really? I also..."

Yu Zhengjun, who has always been steady, was rarely excited and began to talk about his feelings.

Li Youmei couldn't help but nodded: "Our Nian Nian is so powerful! This medicine is simply amazing!"

"Lao Zhang came today to ask for medicine!"

"No wonder, I also asked why he came to our house... The relationship between our two families is not that close..." Li Youmei suddenly realized.

The two of them chatted in the kitchen for a while.

An Nian came back on his legs today. It only takes 10 minutes to ride a bicycle back and forth these days. Unexpectedly, it took an hour to walk.

She began to think about whether to buy a bicycle. Anyway, she had enough money, but she heard that bicycle tickets were difficult to get.

"Dad! Mom! I'm back!"

An Nian put everything he brought back in the yard, called for people, and walked to the kitchen.

Only the living room and kitchen are lit at home. According to An Nian's experience, parents are usually in the kitchen at this time.

"Nian girl is back?"

A figure suddenly appeared at the door of the living room and spoke.

An Nian turned around and looked over. He looked familiar. He was the uncle she met last time when she and her elder brother were carrying bamboo.

He was a former friend of her parents. An Nian had already remembered his name and shouted with a smile: "Uncle Zhang."
