Chapter 291 Disease
Horang said he would send it to the literacy class, and it really stopped at the literacy class.
Si Ningning turned around and waved to him, a bright smile on her moon-white face reddened by the temperature.
Huo Lang waved his hand in response, and Si Ningning winked playfully. The next moment, he turned back and disappeared into the tree-lined path with a small bamboo basket on his back.
It was about three o'clock in the afternoon, which was not too late. Everyone else from the educated youth spot had returned.
Si Ningning entered the room and clearly noticed that the atmosphere in the room was much more lively than before. She took off the bamboo basket and hung it behind the door, "What's wrong? Did you catch up with anything good in town today? See how you are all smiling?" "
"It's nothing, it's just that my family sent me some autumn clothes. I was freezing a few nights ago... I don't have to freeze tonight, haha!" Xu Shuhua said with a smile, and then went out with the basin of soaked shoes and socks. Let's go, "You guys chat first, I'll wash out the shoes first."
Si Ningning nodded, her head still a little groggy. She didn't really chat with Song Xiaoyun and Jiang Yue. She rolled up her sleeves and walked towards the kitchen. She poured some salt and marinated the meat that Huo Lang had sent in the morning. .
After washing her hands and coming out of the kitchen, Si Ningning couldn't bear to wash away the smell of sweat on her body, so she kicked off her shoes and climbed into bed and lay down.
During this period, Jiang Yue came uninvited and hovered around Si Ningning like a magpie announcing good news. After Si Ningning went to bed and lay down, instead of leaving, she leaned her back against the edge of Si Ningning's bed and hugged her knees. Sitting on the ground:
“Si Ningning, do you know?”
"Huh?" Si Ningning forced herself to respond, "What?"
“My brother wrote me a reply! He was really worried about me some time ago!”
“Did you know? He said that the place he was assigned to was relatively far away and he didn’t have the opportunity to go to the town. He could only go to the town occasionally with the tractors that distributed daily necessities in the oil field over there..."
"He said it would take more than two hours to get to town there, even by tractor! More than two hours, how far do you think it is? If you walk, it won't take a whole day to go back and forth? No wonder he didn't give it before I reply!"
"Si Ningning? Hello? Si Ningning?" After talking for a long time without getting a response, Jiang Yue stood up and turned her head. She pressed her face against the mosquito net and pushed it inward. She could vaguely see Si Ningning closing her eyes and breathing calmly. appearance.
Jiang Yue pursed her lips and withdrew her face, muttering "little lazy pig", then stood up and walked happily towards the door.
Perhaps the incident during the day gave Si Ningning a big shock. Si Ningning had a slight fever. She only found out about it when Jiang Yue came over to call her to eat in the evening.
At that time, Jiang Yue called Si Ningning several times but could not wake her up. She opened the mosquito net and touched Si Ningning's forehead and felt it was a little hot before realizing something was wrong.
Jiang Yue turned around and called Xu Shuhua and the others. Xu Shuhua and Song Xiaoyun put a sticker on Si Ningning's forehead one after another, and then touched their own foreheads. They gave the same answer: "It's a little feverish. It must be because I have been tired recently." , It’s not a big problem, just take a rest.”
Jiang Yue disagreed a little. It was obvious that Xu Shuhua and Song Xiaoyun were determined, and it was not easy to say anything. They could only take a look at the situation first.
Although she did not take action in time, Jiang Yue kept paying attention to this matter, so that when Si Ningning woke up in the middle of the night and fumbled out of bed, she was the first to get up from the bed.
Standing in front of Si Ningning's bed in two steps, Jiang Yue bent down and asked, "Si Ningning, are you hungry?"
"..." Si Ningning paused and shook her head subconsciously. Realizing that Jiang Yue couldn't see her movements in the darkness, she pulled her dry lips and said back, "I'm not hungry, I'm a little thirsty."
“Then I’ll get you a glass of water!”
Not long after, Jiang Yue came back with a glass of water. Si Ningning opened the mosquito net, sat down on the bed with her legs naturally drooped, and sipped the water.
Waiting to relieve the dryness on his lips and throat, and fearing to disturb the sleeping Song Xiaoyun and Xu Shuhua, Si Ningning lowered his voice and asked, "Why aren't you asleep yet?"
"I fell asleep just now, but I kept thinking about your fever. I heard a faint sound on the bed board just now. I guess you woke up. I woke up too for some reason... I just wanted to ask you how you feel?" Jiang Yue replied truthfully.
Si Ningning could not clearly see Jiang Yue's expression in the darkness, and could only vaguely see the outline of a human figure.
But no matter how you put it, the fact that someone was remembering your illness comforted Si Ningning both physically and mentally.
She curved her lips and chuckled, comforting and persuading: "I'm fine, maybe I'm just tired recently. I just need to take a rest... I'll go to sleep after drinking the water, so you should go to sleep too!"
Jiang Yue hesitated for a moment, nodded and said, "Okay, if you have anything, or if you feel uncomfortable again, just call me?"
“Yeah.” Si Ningning nodded his head gently.
Then the sound of the bed board "thumping, thumping" was heard from the opposite direction, and Jiang Yue had climbed onto the bed again.
Si Ningning couldn't help but curl her lips. After drinking the water, she sat by the bed for a while before lying down.
I thought that after sleeping for so long from afternoon to night, I would definitely not be able to fall asleep. Unexpectedly, as soon as I lay down, I fell asleep again in less than two minutes.
Si Ningning has been ill for half a month, with daily coughs and low-grade fevers. Within half a month, before she could regain her roundness, her face had lost a lot of weight, and her thin chin had become more pointed.
Zhao Hongbing came over a week ago to inform that the literacy class was ready, the blackboard was dry, chalk and other supplies were in place, and they were waiting for the class to officially start.
At that time, it was said that Si Ningning's face was white and fierce. Zhao Hongbing said that the time was extended back.
Si Ningning felt uncomfortable holding back everyone's progress by herself, but there was nothing she could do about it. She was coughing badly at that time and took a lot of medicine, but she was not getting better and her voice was hoarse. Before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by a cough.
Si Ningning also communicated with Jiang Yue and asked Jiang Yue to go first, but Jiang Yue did not dare.
Jiang Yue had never done teaching before, and there were too many uncertainties in her heart. She was afraid that she would not be able to handle it, so Jiang Yue thought about letting Si Ningning take the lead and let Si Ningning take the first class. Come and sit in and learn along the way.
Si Ningning understood Jiang Yue's thoughts and psychology quite well, so he didn't say much, and the matter was postponed like this.
In the remaining days at the end of the fortnight, other educated youths went to and from work step by step. Si Ningning was not idle except for recuperating and preparing lessons.
First, the educated rabbits gave birth to little rabbits. There were eleven in each litter and sixteen in each litter. Fortunately, cages were prepared in advance, otherwise there would be no room to separate the cages in such a hurry. The newly born little rabbit is really ugly, with no red hair at all, just like a squirming, half-cooked meatball.
Because the rabbit was passed with Zhao Hongbinggou in advance, when the little rabbit was born, Si Ningning greeted Zhao Hongbing to go to the valley and take the straw to return to the new nest. Zhao Hongbing agreed without thinking.
Si Ningning unceremoniously picked up two bundles of newly recovered straw from the threshing floor in autumn, rolled the straw into small bundles, picked a suitable wooden stick and beat it repeatedly until the hard and cut parts of the straw were removed. Don't stop until the hammer is soft.
Si Ningning built four or five nests with treated straw. After placing the two nests of female rabbits and baby rabbits in their new homes, she also stuffed the cages she temporarily restricted into one straw nest.
Purchase what you can buy first, lest the straw be burned later or something else happens, and the rabbits have to go get the straw again when they want to be divided into cages.
New straw nests were installed in all the cages. There was still a large bundle of straw that Si Ningning brought back. She was thinking about taking it out at some points and putting it into the space. Because she was counting the time, the two sows with cubs in the space were still there. She should be giving birth in the next two days.
Just as he was thinking about it, he saw Zhao Hongbing walking from the side of the educated youth point house with a gun on his shoulder and a bundle of straw tied to his head.
"Hey, haha, Si Zhiqing, do you have enough straw poles? I'll send you two more bundles." Zhao Hongbing unloaded the straw at the gate of the educated youth point and saw two rabbit cages at the door. I couldn't help but crane my neck to look at them: "Which litter gave birth to the cubs? How many were born?"
“Uncle, it’s cold now, so I’m afraid the little rabbits will freeze, so the two nests are kept alone in the house.” Si Ningning quickly led Zhao Hongbing into the house to take a look.
Now the rabbit cages are placed in the room that was locked at the beginning. When Zhao Hongbing entered the room, he couldn't help but sigh, "You guys cleaned up really well."
Si Ningning smiled lightly and replied smoothly: "Everyone is very attentive to raising rabbits. The cages are cleaned morning and evening, and the floors are swept every day."
“Yes, isn’t this the same as raising pigs?” Zhao Hongbing nodded and laughed, “If the living environment is better, the pig will grow better and he will not get sick.”
This is what Si Ningning said to Zhao Hongbing when he was working in the pig pen.
“That’s the truth.” Si Ningning nodded lightly.
As he spoke, he walked to the rabbit cage. One of the two female rabbits was sitting in the nest nursing, while the other was twisting her mouth and chewing hay outside the nest.
Si Ningning knelt down and showed Zhao Hongbing the cage where the female rabbit was chewing hay. "Uncle, look, there are sixteen babies in this litter and eleven in the nursing litter."
"Ouch! There are so many! These are more fertile than pigs!" Zhao Hongbing looked closer in surprise, squinted for a while, then scratched the back of his head and said, "I also killed rabbits when I was young. I’ve never raised a rabbit before, but this is the first time I’ve seen it. Does it look like a newborn mouse?”
Si Ningning scratched her forehead with her index finger. She had seen the little rabbit so far, but not the little mouse. She didn't know if the two looked alike.
However, Zhao Hongbing said something right, that is, this little rabbit is really ugly...
Si Ningning didn't know how to solve the problem, so she laughed along with "hehehe".
Zhao Hongbing was stunned when she smiled.
Looking back at what he just said, Zhao Hongbing also thought it was a bit funny?
Although he spoke openly, it was all the truth, right?
"Hahaha" he laughed heartily a few more times. Zhao Hongbing patted the dust on his trouser legs and walked out. As he walked, he praised, "Si Zhiqing, you raised rabbits well. Not only did you give birth to cubs, but also the other big rabbits." It's quite fat. If you keep this up, you will have a great time as an educated youth by the end of the year, and you will get a hundred and ten work points!"
“It’s hard to say what the specific situation will be, but I hope that with my uncle’s good advice, the production team members will have a better life, and the educated youth will also have hope.”
"Hahaha, okay, okay, that's a good saying!" Zhao Hongbing picked up the musket leaning against the door and looked back at Si Ningning with a hearty smile, "Uncle, let's borrow your good words, let's run together. Days go!”
“Let’s go, get busy!”
“Hey, uncle, please slow down.”
Standing at the door and watching Zhao Hongbing go away, Si Ningning smiled quietly, shook her head, and then began to clean up the door.
There was a large bundle of straw left, and Zhao Hongbing sent two more bundles. Si Ningning collected two bundles into the space without hesitation, and the remaining bundle was put into a dry place inside the eaves, where he usually kept it for bundling firewood. Use something.
The two bundles of straw were put into the space. Si Ningning originally planned to spread them out in the next two days to prepare the sows for giving birth. However, as soon as they entered the space, they found that one of the two sows was carrying the babies. A sow has already started giving birth.
The three little piglets Mr. got off still had a little bit of afterbirth stuck to them. When Si Ningning came closer, they were paralyzed in the place where the sow usually lived, with a lot of mud and feces on their bodies.
The sow was still lying in the corner giving birth to piglets. Si Ningning quickly broke up the bundled straw ropes and carried the straw into the pig pen three times and spread it out beside the sow.
Afraid that her husband's piglets would die of hypothermia after being away from their mother for too long. Not caring about the feces on the piglets, Si Ningning picked up the piglets one by one and prepared to send them back to the mother, but he just picked up the piglets. It was discovered that the piglet’s belly was still connected to an umbilical cord that was 20 centimeters long.
The umbilical cord will be cut short when a child is born, and it needs to be tied after cutting. Piglets...should also need it, right?
Si Ningning struggled for a while and finally sent all the piglets back to the sow. She went back to the villa to find medical insurance. After disinfecting her hands and scissors, she neatly picked up the umbilical cords of the three piglets and connected them to the belly. Leave about seven or eight centimeters in length.
The little pig didn't like being handled very much and kept kicking and twisting. Si Ningning tried several times but failed to tie the umbilical cord. After thinking about it for a while, he gave up. However, he used cotton swabs dipped in iodophor to give the piglets one by one. Disinfect pig navel.
The piglets were squirming quite gracefully at first, but the iodophor on their belly buttons was somewhat irritating. For a while, the three piglets not only squirmed and kicked around, but also screamed "humhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh".
It was probably because of the strong maternal instincts that the sow who was still giving birth trembled violently after hearing this and was about to get up. Si Ningning was startled, fearing that the sow would bite her, so she quickly packed up her things and left the pig pen. Withdrew.
Pork tastes so good when you usually eat it, but now you feel so embarrassed when you run away.
Si Ningning watched for a while next to the pig pen. She was originally worried that the sow would turn over and overwhelm the piglets, but it turned out that she was overthinking it.
In the pig pen, the sow seemed to realize that the piglets were beside her, and she carefully turned it over a few times, and finally turned her belly side towards the piglets. The piglets, who were not very energetic at first, felt the warmth and the smell of breast milk, and immediately said, "Hmm." "Uh-huh", each of them tried their best to push their hind legs up to **** the milk...
