Siheyuan: Big City, Small Love

He Lai stopped trying to persuade her and just kept learning how to make dumplings.

Southerners born after the 1990s rarely know how to make dumplings. After all, it is not very popular. He Lai also learned a little from Wu Juan, but he was also very tidy when making dumplings, not as neat as Grandma He and the others.

Old Mrs. He and the others didn't say anything and even praised He Lai for his ability!

After all, the flour for Grandma He's house was brought by He Lai. Otherwise, with their current conditions, it would be very difficult to eat steamed buns, let alone dumplings.

Old Mrs. He was afraid that He Lai wouldn't be able to get used to the food, so she put very little cabbage, sauerkraut, etc. in the dumplings. It can be said that the dumplings were filled with pure pork.

He Lai sat there and made some dumplings for a while, about twenty in total. After asking Old Lady He to cook the dumplings he had made at noon, he got up and left.

Take the golden eagle and go out hunting with Xiaohu and the others.

The golden eagle was becoming smarter and smarter. When it saw that there were only two people next to He Lai and he didn't follow them, it knew that it was letting them hunt on their own.

So in just one morning, the two golden eagles flew back and forth and caught more than a dozen hares and pheasants.

On the way back, Xiaohu said enviously, "Xiao Laizi, your golden eagle is so amazing. I wish I had one."

"Brother Xiaohu, you've said it countless times! How about this, next time they give birth, I'll bring one to you and let you keep it by your side."

He Lai said.

"Xiao Laizi, there's me too. There's me too. I want one too."

When Wu Sheng heard this, he immediately spoke.

"Okay, then you two can each have one." He Lai said with a smile.

……

When they got home, Grandma He had already cooked dumplings and was waiting for He Lai and his friends to eat.

Everyone sat together, eating and chatting, having a great time.

When my aunt and uncle heard that He Lai was going to help Xiaohu and Wu Sheng get a purchasing job, they were extremely enthusiastic.

After all, some buyers from Sijiu City would often come to their village, bringing some daily necessities such as pots and pans to exchange for their food. They were very impressive and were surrounded by villagers every time they came.

After He Lai finished eating the dumplings, he went to the cowshed to check on the old ox.

Not to mention that the old ox lives a good life. It eats sweet potatoes, corn stalks, some grass, and a little soybeans.

When the old ox saw its master He Lai coming, it started mooing.

He Lai quickly went forward and touched its head to prevent it from getting too excited.

He looked around and saw no one, so he got some food from the space for it to try.

I also checked its body and found that there was no major problem with its hooves, and there were no small stones stuck in its hooves. I only found that there were many small stones in its stomach and there was some bloating.

Bloating is a very common thing in cows. After all, herbivores eat mostly grass plants, which can easily cause bloating.

There are four stomachs in the cow's stomach. After eating, the food is half-digested in the stomach and then returned to the mouth to be chewed again. This is called rumination. When the food is half-digested in the stomach, a lot of gas will be produced. If there is too much gas and it cannot be discharged, the cow may die of bloating.

He Lai directly used his spatial ability to help it clear it out. Once the bloating and food in the stomach were cleared out, the cow's stomach instantly became much smaller.

The old ox ate the space food it had been longing for, and it also felt that its stomach was now more comfortable and not as uncomfortable as before.

Another "moo" sound startled He Lai, who was really afraid of attracting others. Fortunately, the keeper had already fed it at noon, and it was now lying at home.

I stayed with the old ox for quite a while and fed it a lot of things, such as fruits, sweet potatoes, and potatoes, so that it could eat enough at once!

After He Lai saw that the old ox was full, he turned around to look at another old ox in the village nearby. The condition of this ox was much more serious than He Lai's. Its belly was so big that it was about to burst, and it probably had difficulty standing.

He Lai estimated that there must be a lot of gas inside, so he quickly helped it clean out its stomach.

Its stomach was indeed filled with a bunch of miscellaneous things, including some small stones, mud and small pieces of iron.

He Lai also found a good thing in the cow's stomach, bezoar!

Bezoar is a good thing, its value is several cents higher than gold. In later generations, each pound is worth millions!

Bezoar is actually the stones in the gallbladder. It can cure many difficult and complicated diseases and is a very special Chinese medicine.

He Lai used his spatial ability to take it out. The removal of the gallstones had no effect on the old ox, and it became healthier instead.

Looking at the piece of bezoar weighing nearly two kilograms in the space, He Lai was quite happy. None of the cattle raised in his space had bezoar, but he found it in the body of a dying old cattle.

After He Lai finished all this, he also fed it some food. After all, he helped clean its stomach, and the cow could live for a few more years.

At around four or five in the afternoon, when Xiaohu and the old breeder came to the cowshed to feed the cows, they found that something was wrong with the two cows. Their stomachs were obviously much smaller.

Especially the old cow, it is now very energetic and keeps eating grass.

"Xiao Hu, what's going on? Why has the cow's belly become smaller?"

the old man asked.

"I don't know either. When I came here this morning, the cow's belly was still big!"

Xiaohu also felt a little confused.

"Has there been any doctor in our village? Has anyone treated the cow? Otherwise, how could the cow's stomach shrink?"

the old man asked.

"No, and if a doctor comes to treat the cow, the village chief will definitely notify us." Xiaohu said.

"Yes, that's strange. Who is so amazing? He can even cure the cow's flatulence! Look at how much better the old cow is. My old friend is alive again."

The old man touched the old cow's head and said.

Xiaohu suddenly thought of He Lai. He remembered that He Lai seemed to know medical skills, but he didn't expect that He Lai could also cure flatulence.

"Uncle, I'm going to go back first. You feed the cows." After saying that, Xiaohu ran back to Grandpa He's house.

At this time, He Lai was sitting in the house feeding the golden eagle with dried meat!

"What's wrong, Xiaohu? You're sweating all over! What's the matter?" asked Old Mrs. He.

"Grandma, it's nothing. Xiao Lai, come out for a moment. I have something to ask you." Xiaohu said as he pulled He Lai out.

"Ah..." He Lai was pulled by Xiaohu and had to throw all the dried meat in his hand to the golden eagle and followed Xiaohu out.

When they got to the yard, Xiao Hu asked He Lai, "Xiao Lai, are you the one who treats the cows in the cowshed?"

"Ah, this, I treated it. What's wrong? Is there something wrong with the cow?"

He Lai asked doubtfully.

"No, Xiao Laizi, how did you treat it? Can you teach me?

Many old veterinarians are afraid to treat this cow's flatulence. They say they need to pierce a hole in the cow's body to let the gas out. If the piercing is not done properly, the cow will die. So they all say that it is best not to treat this flatulence and let it run its course. "

When Xiaohu saw He Lai nodded and acknowledged his cow treatment, he asked.

"Uh... Brother Xiaohu, you can't learn this. This medical skill is very difficult. It can't be taught to you in a few words. But if the cow is bloated again, you can come to me and I will help you solve it."

He Lai had no choice but to make up an excuse.

He Lai had often seen the activity of acupuncture to relieve gas on a certain audio platform in his previous life. As long as the acupuncture point is correct, it can indeed effectively treat bloating.

Some people even open a hole in the cow's body to cure its diseases, which leads directly to the cow's stomach. This stomach is the cow's rumen. Cows usually get sick because of problems with the rumen. Because the rumen is the largest stomach of the cow and the real stomach of the cow, it stores most of the food and is prone to problems.

"Oh, okay then." Xiao Hu heard that he couldn't learn it, but after thinking about it, it was true that veterinary medicine was not that simple. Then he praised He Lai: "Xiao Laizi, you are really amazing. Many veterinarians can't cure flatulence, but you cured it in one go."

"Hey, Brother Xiaohu, stop talking. It's really cold outside. Let's go back to the house."

He Lai didn't want to continue freezing outside, so he quickly invited Xiaohu into the house to chat.
