Siheyuan: Big City, Small Love

Chapter 146 Badger Oil

In the following days, He Lai ran around the hills and slopes with Xiaohu and his friends every day and harvested a lot of rabbits.

He Lai specifically picked out some big rabbits and badgers and put them into the space.

My uncle and his friends began collecting acorns and setting traps where there were oak trees to see if they could find any.

……

"Xiao Lai, are you really leaving today? Won't you stay a few more days? Or wait until your mother comes before leaving." Old Mrs. He was a little reluctant to let He Lai go.

"Grandma, I'm grown up now and can go back by myself. Isn't school about to start? I have to go back to school." He Lai explained patiently.

Besides, I had already told Wu Juan that I was going back, so how could I possibly wait for her to pick me up?

"Okay, old lady, studying is more important. Xiaohu, help Xiaolaizi carry his things and go wait for the bus. Don't delay. If you miss the bus, you will have to wait a long time for the next one."

Mr. He had spoken, so Old Master He had no choice but to remain silent.

"Grandma, please supervise Grandpa and stop him from smoking too much. Let him drink more tea.

I went to town yesterday and brought you some more. I put it in the box where you keep your things.

Grandma, I'm leaving now. I'll come to see you during the holidays."

He Lai said goodbye to his grandmother.

"I know, grandma, I know. Be careful in the car. Let's go." Grandma He also watched He Lai leave.

……

At noon, He Lai returned to the courtyard. A group of children were playing in the front yard, including Liu Guangtian and his brother Hu Zi.

"Brother Lai, you're back! Let me get it for you." Hu Zi saw He Lai and hurried over to say hello. Brother Liu Guangtian also came up.

"Okay, take it." He Lai was not polite and directly gave both bags to Hu Zi.

"Have you finished your homework? You're having so much fun." He Lai said the same thing again.

"Brother Lai, don't worry. It's been done a long time ago. Do you want to check it out?" Liu Guangtian said with a smile and snatched a bundle from Hu Zi's hand.

Liu Guangtian has already figured out He Lai's routine. He is simply trying to make things difficult for him under the pretext of checking homework. This pit must be filled.

He Lai curled his lips, knowing that Liu Guangtian must have written it, but he was too lazy to read it.

"I'm tired and don't have time! Go back and lie down for a while." He Lai went back to the backyard.

I entered the house and there was no one there.

"Brother Lai, Yu Shui went to the steel mill. I didn't know you would come back today." Hu Zi explained.

"Okay, I'll wash my face and lie down for a while. Guangtian, you can put this bag on the chair, and Huzi, you can put this in the kitchen."

He Lai went to wash his face.

"Come on, brother, let's go."

"Well, let's go, let's go."

He Lai was too lazy to be polite, so he waved at them and lay down for a while.

……

When He Lai awoke, he looked at his pocket watch and saw that it was already half past two and his stomach was growling.

It’s a good opportunity for me to go to Fengze Garden for a meal first, as I happen to have some good food in my space.

So He Lai used his mind to put all the prey in the space into the bag, and then take it out when no one was around.

He Lai carried his small bag and rode his bicycle out of the courtyard.

On the way, he turned into an inconspicuous alley, took out the packed badger from the space, and rode towards Fengze Garden.

"Master, Xiao Laizi is here to see you!" He Lai entered the kitchen unhindered.

"Hey, you little rascal, you still remember that you have a master like me, but you don't come to pay New Year's greetings, right?"

Master Hu deliberately gave He Lai a sour face and spoke angrily.

Others also looked at He Lai's situation with sighs.

"Oh, Master, can you blame me for this? Didn't Uncle He come back from Baoding? He insisted on taking me to the temple fair.

I saw that he was old, so I had to agree to it. I had to go back to my grandfather's house in the countryside on the second day of the Chinese New Year.

I really don't have the ability to be in two places at once. If I had the ability to be in two places at once, I would definitely go, right?

You see, I just came back this afternoon. I didn’t even take a sip of it, but I came here to wish you a happy new year. I also brought two badgers with me. Look, they are fresh!”

He Lai clicked his tongue to please him.

Master Hu took the badger bag and looked inside, and it was indeed a badger.

"You are really good! I accept this gift. This badger is really a good thing."

"Master, please tell me in detail." He Lai was surprised to hear that there was such a thing! He still had several of them in his own space.

"Okay, Master, I'll teach you a good lesson today.

The skin and fat of the badger can be used to extract oil and make badger oil, which has many uses.

Badger oil has the effects of reducing swelling and relieving pain, helping wounds heal, and reducing inflammation and killing viruses.

It is very effective in treating burns and scalds. We often have burns and scalds in our kitchen, so I say it is a good thing. "

After Master Hu finished speaking, he took a sip of tea.

He Lai's eyes lit up. So that's how it is. Not bad, not bad.

"Master, if there is more next time, I will bring it to you! Is there any other benefit from this badger?"

Master Hu glanced at He Lai.

"I heard that frying food with this oil can cure stomach problems, but I don't know if it's true. You can ask your medical teacher, he will definitely know more."

"Master, oh, how can he compare with you? You said it can be cured, of course it can be cured. I remember Brother Zhuzi also brought back 4, did he give them to you?"

He Lai continued to please.

"What! This ungrateful bastard, wait and see how I'll deal with him next time."

When Master Hu heard that Sha Zhu also had one and didn't bring it for him, he was outrageous.

"Master, don't be angry, don't be angry. When I get back, I will ask him to bring it to you. I have another one at home, which I will also give to you."

He Lai quickly massaged Master Hu’s shoulders.

Silly Zhu, Silly Zhu, please don't blame me!

In the steel rolling mill, Sha Zhu suddenly trembled. He didn't know that he had been sold out by He Lai. He lay in a rocking chair and drank tea.

Soon, He Lai had his meal at Fengze Garden and packed up his lunch box. He thought, with such a big restaurant as his backing, how could he go hungry? No one would believe it.

Since this thing has medical value, Mr. Feng must arrange two of them.

Using the same method, He Lai soon came to the clinic with a bag containing a badger.

"Master, I brought you something good." He Lai carried the bag and went to the backyard to find Grandpa Feng.

"Oh, a badger, um, not bad, I like this old man, where did you get it?"

When Mr. Feng opened the bag and saw that it was a badger, he smiled.

"Well, it's just a New Year's trip to the countryside. I just dug a few holes and caught it. It's very simple!"

He Lai waved his hands and boasted.

Mr. Feng did not expose it and took the things.

"Okay, you're thoughtful, Xiao Laizi. If you have it next time, bring it to me. This thing is very useful to me."

"What's the use? Tell your disciple. I already know that its oil can heal burns."

He Lai looked curious. Since Mr. Feng said it would be of great use, it definitely wouldn't be something like burns.

"The oil extracted from the badger can treat constipation, moisten the stomach and intestines, promote digestion and improve absorption.

It also has miraculous effects on people with skin diseases. I have several people around me who have skin diseases and they need it.”

Mr. Feng did not hide it and told He Lai directly.

He Lai understood a lot more. Soon, the badger was handed over to Senior Brother Gao to refine oil. Old Master Feng also sent He Lai back to read books.

He Lai smacked his lips, understanding a lot, and felt that the trip was not in vain.
