I want to protect my family, but you force me to take the lead

"Your eldest uncle and second uncle took them out. Come on, it's not an easy journey for you all, go back to the house and rest."

After saying that, Yuan Fangcao waved his hand and signaled the two to go back to the house quickly.

Qin Nuan was anxious to see the reward for this mission, so she rushed back to the house as soon as Yuan Fangcao finished speaking, and sat cross-legged on the warm kang. With a thought, two books appeared on her legs.

Pick it up and take a look.

They are "One Needle to Restore Heaven and Earth" and "Nine Needles to Restore Yang".

After flipping through a few pages of the physical book in her hand, Qin Nuan knew why there was no such thing as an epiphany.

The acupuncture points and case records in these two books cannot be learned simply by sudden enlightenment.

There are many requirements for this needle insertion.

For example: strength, angle, technique, etc.

The manual moxibustion includes various methods of needle insertion.

Acupuncture techniques are generally divided into two categories: basic techniques and auxiliary techniques. The basic techniques are further divided into lifting and inserting techniques and twisting techniques. Auxiliary techniques include following method, sharp handle method, elastic handle method, rubbing handle method, shaking handle method, vibration method and so on.

As the name suggests, this needle that determines everything is a needle that can decide everything. It is also called a needle that can determine everything.

This is a medical technique of "treating internal diseases externally", which treats systemic diseases through the conduction of meridians and certain operating methods.

Unblocking meridians and regulating Qi and blood are the key to Qiankun Needle.

Acupuncture therapy, which is known as "one needle determines the outcome of a disease", is a medical skill that is about to be lost. It does not focus on meridians and acupoints, but only treats specific symptoms. It is very effective, especially for the treatment of various stubborn diseases.

Let’s look at the nine Huiyang needles.

The so-called nine yang-restoring needles are actually the nine yang-restoring acupoints.

It records nine acupoints that are vital to the human body.

It was once recorded in a book: If the patient is in critical condition and suffers from the crisis of loss of yang, or loss of yin leading to loss of yang, the doctor should urgently give acupuncture at this point to restore yang and rescue the patient.

This is enough to show that these nine acupoints are all used for emergency treatment and are effective when used together.

The nine acupoints are Yamen, Laogong, Sanyinjiao, Yongquan, Taixi, Zhongwan, Huantiao, Zusanli and Hegu.

There was also a rumor that said: "Yameng, Laogong, Sanyinjiao, Yongquan, Taixi, Zhongwan, Huantiao, Sanli, Hegu, these are the nine acupoints for returning yang."

Among them, Taixi point is the original point of the kidney meridian, which has extremely high function of restoring yang and rescuing from adverse conditions.

The more Qin Nuan looked, the more frightened she became.

I only knew that acupuncture has its own particularities, but I didn't expect that the principles involved are so profound.

Looking at the acupuncture point diagram on the page, Qin Nuan decided to find the acupuncture points on her body while learning during the winter.

So, in the following days, apart from eating and practicing boxing, Qin Nuan stayed in the house reading books...

In the blink of an eye, it was the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month.

The 23rd day of the 12th lunar month, also known as "Little New Year", is the day to worship the Kitchen God.

Because of the custom that "men do not worship the moon and women do not worship the Kitchen God", only men are allowed to worship the Kitchen God today.

Seeing that there was nothing for her to do, Qin Nuan slipped back into the house to continue reading.

The next day, the twenty-fourth day of the twelfth lunar month, is dust-removing day.

After breakfast, the family divided the work among themselves.

The brothers and sisters were responsible for cleaning the dust on the roof, while Yuan Fangcao and her two daughters-in-law cleaned the chopping board, kimchi jar, and cupboards in the kitchen one by one.

The head of the family, Qin Dashu, and his two sons were clearing the snow in and outside the yard...

On the 25th day of the twelfth lunar month, make tofu.

The famine had just passed, and although every household had little surplus food, the twenty or so households in the village scraped together and made four pieces of tofu, and each household got two pieces. Everyone was happy.

On the twenty-sixth day of the twelfth lunar month, pigs are slaughtered and meat is cut for the New Year. This means that meat is mainly prepared for the New Year on this day.

Killing pigs is impossible.

The reason is that there are no pigs to kill...

In that era when you needed a meat ticket to buy even a pound of meat, meat was usually only available during the New Year.

After breakfast, Qin Nuan took out five catties of meat coupons and two yuan and found Yuan Fangcao, saying proudly, "Grandma, buy some meat and have braised pork."

Looking at Qin Nuan's heroic appearance, Yuan Fangcao chuckled, "Pfft, Nuan girl, we don't lack meat at home."

"Grandma, those are all bacon. Buy some meat to make dumplings or meatballs. They are delicious."

Looking at the five kilograms of meat coupons in her hand, Yuan Fangcao looked at her and asked, "Buy them all?"

"Buy them all."

"Okay, grandma will pack up and go. You stay at home and read books, don't go out."

"Uh-huh."

In the afternoon, Yuan Fangcao and her two daughters-in-law returned with the New Year's goods they had bought.

"Big Boss, wife, you go make dinner and we'll take care of these."

"Hey, good."

"Second son's wife, take this meat to the kitchen and have your eldest sister-in-law cut it up and fry it tonight. Peel these, chop them up, make dumplings tonight, and freeze them to eat during the New Year."

"Okay. I'll take care of the chopping."

"Okay, the hard work of chopping meat is yours. Go quickly..."

"Hey"

Zhao Xiaocao responded by carrying two pieces of meat, one large and one small, and hurried into the kitchen. Then the sound of chopping meat could be heard...

Everyone in the family is busy, making the New Year atmosphere more and more intense.

On the 28th, Qin Nuan, who was reading a book in the house, finally couldn't bear it anymore and came out. Looking at her grandma and two aunts busy in the kitchen, Qin Nuan's nose felt sore and then her eyes turned red.

She misses her parents.

but……

Unable to bear destroying this rich atmosphere, Qin Nuan left the kitchen and returned to the house, leaning against the kang and becoming dazed...

The next day was New Year’s Eve.

New Year’s Eve is another night for family reunion.

On this day, people eat a New Year's Eve dinner with lots of fish and meat, set off firecrackers, stay up all night, etc.

Qinjia Village also continues this custom.

Tonight's meal is particularly sumptuous.

In addition to stewed radish with pork bones and stir-fried cabbage, there are also bacon, smoked chicken and pickled fish.

The bowl was no longer filled with porridge, but rice mixed with corn crumbs.

"Boss, it's time to eat."

Yuan Fangcao walked towards the main room carrying the cabbage meatball soup and shouted towards the utility room.

"Just come."

After dinner, the five brothers and sisters sat on mats and warmed themselves around the fire.

Seeing that her grandfather and uncles went out at night, Qin Nuan took a stool and sat next to her grandmother Yuan Fangcao, and asked quietly: "Grandma, why are grandfather and uncles still going out at this time?"

"What are you asking for, kid? Go to grandma's house and get some roasted chestnuts to eat."

As he said this, he did not forget to glare at Qin Nuan.

Qin Nuan touched his nose in embarrassment, chuckled twice, and immediately went to Yuan Fangcao's room, then filled two pockets with chestnuts and came out, "Big brother, second brother, third brother, little brother, let's roast some chestnuts."

"Hey, this is good."

"Sister, did grandma agree?"

Seeing the doubt in Qin Xiaowei's eyes, Qin Nuan rolled her eyes at him and said as she took out the chestnuts, "Silly. If grandma doesn't agree, can I take it out?"

"Sister... um..."

Qin Xiaowei wanted to say something, but his brother Qin Xiaohua covered his mouth, "How stupid! Even if there is food, it can't stop you from talking."

When Qin Xiaowei heard his brother say that he was stupid, he disagreed and struggled to compete with his brother.

Seeing this, Qin Xiaohu said with interest: "Old boy, it's okay to admit that you are stupid."
