Chapter 694: 688. Sunbathing and Moxibustion [Two-in-one]_3
——I never really thought about doing moxibustion.
Zhang Yanping and Xin Jun were full of anticipation, “If it really works, next year we’ll plant more Ai Cao in so remote corners. It could be a big source of inco!”
Clearly focused on money, Song Tan glanced at them and thought, wait until they start cutting the Ai Cao; then they won’t be so enthusiastic.
Thus, when it was around five or six o’clock, people were just getting off work or still working overti took out their phones and discovered, to their surprise — their unpredictable host Qiaoqiao had started a live stream again, without any notice!
[I’m here.]
[I can never catch the morning live streams, but I finally managed to wait for the evening one.]
[So many people on the subway, I didn’t bring headphones.]
[The evening streams have more traffic! It hasn’t been long, and there are already so many people.]
[What’s tonight’s broadcast about?]
[What’s for dinner tonight?]
[It’s been days since the last stream, and that little mouse…]
The barrage of comnts flooded in chaotically.
And Qiaoqiao set up the cara properly and said earnestly,
“Kids, today I’m going to teach you how to cut Ai Cao. Our village’s Doctor Guo said to sun-dry it for a couple of days, then we can use it for moxibustion — let’s start with the harvest!”
After he had spoken, he turned his head, picked up the sickle, and left the audience behind, heading into the lush Ai Cao field beside him.
The barrage of comnts imdiately beca lively—
[Moxibustion! I want to try it too!!]
[The health bureau must catch up imdiately.]
[Does the host make his own Ai Zhu?]
[Will it be for sale? I really want to buy.]
[The quality of Ai Zhu bought from pharmacies is so inconsistent…]
[You have to buy Ai Zhu from xx, their quality is good.]
[I bought a moxibustion mat, I sit on it every day.]
[Just sitting on it is not enough, you have to moxibustion the Yongquan point on the soles of your feet too.]
[What? Is there so much to consider with moxibustion?]
[Right? Isn’t it just putting a few moxa boxes on your belly or back?]
[Moxibustion has a systematic theory, fumigating the feet with Ai draws the fire downward to prevent excessive internal heat.]
[Learned sothing new!]
[Learned sothing new!]
[I’m trying this tonight!]
[It’s too hot, I don’t even want to soak my feet.]
[This is better saved for autumn…]
[The effect is better during the Dog Days of sumr! Our family always does cupping then.]
Watching the live stream, Zhang Yanping managed to slack off under the pretext, learning a bit of sporadic knowledge as he stared at the barrage of ssages flying past—
If you really think about it, there’s big potential in their Ai Cao business!
But looking at the half-excavated, leveled hillside in the distance — forget it! With Tantan’s temperant, she definitely wouldn’t like just planting one thing.
Luckily, this stuff grows all over the hills, and it’s been growing even better than around Dragon Boat Festival; there’s certainly enough for now.
He pondered back and forth, noticing everyone else had bent down to work, so with a small fan clipped to his chest and a wide straw hat on his head, he took the sickle and awkwardly started to cut, ever so carefully, afraid the purposely chosen blunt sickle might nick his leg.
But when he grabbed at the Ai Cao, flipping the leaves over, a green grasshopper sprang out!
Without a word, Zhang Yanping grabbed it, then pulled out his phone —
Take a picture! Post it on social dia!
Just at that mont, Qiaoqiao had set down a bundle of Ai Cao and seeing Zhang Yanping playing with his phone, sighed and shook his head,
“Brother Yanping really knows how to loaf on the job.”
Zhang Yanping: …
Luckily, an adult’s skin is always thick, and at that mont, he held out the two grasshopper legs to Qiaoqiao,
“I’m not slacking; I’m catching little bugs to feed our Guoyi, right?”
Qiaoqiao looked down on the small grasshopper,
“Brother, don’t bother catching them, you haven’t caught anything bigger than our little rooster yet!”
“Our long-tailed bird is now always with the little rooster, getting so plump.”
Zhang Yanping: …
A person shouldn’t, at least shouldn’t — he had only been on vacation for a month, and upon returning, his status was even below that of the little rooster!
However, just as this thought crossed his mind, the grasshopper heroically snapped its legs, pulling away with force —
It was willing to leave behind its strong, thick legs if that ant it could escape into the brush!
Zhang Yanping: …
He held the two transparent green grasshopper legs, completely stunned.
Right then, Wu Lan also looked up and quickly said,
“You two stop playing around, look, Teacher Xin Jun, who has never done farm work, has already cut so much.”
“Yanping, show so initiative for the Ai Cao that Doctor Guo requested!”
This kid, all that height is useless if you don’t have the sense to use it.
Zhang Yanping: …
For a while, he was completely numb—
Is this really how much I’m being looked down on now?
