Chapter 12: Alas, my feet
After I finished speaking, I deliberately avoided the mute expression, lowered my head and talked to myself, and busied myself with the work in my hand not to give the dumb man a chance to speak again. The mute stood next to me for a moment and then put the notebook next to me and went out, I glanced at it and wrote only three words: "Thank you." ”
I chuckled inadvertently. After some tossing, the machine was finally plugged in, and Feifei successfully fell in love with the story with animation and sound.
At dinner, Feifei excitedly told the story in the disc to the dumb man, and the dumb man smiled lovingly when he listened to his daughter's story, but he didn't dare to look at me from beginning to end, I knew that he was still entangled in the fact that I bought so many things for Feifei today, and I felt embarrassed.
After the meal, Feifei had a disc that no longer pestered me, and I helped the dumb man clean up the dishes and chopsticks and prepare to go back to the room, but the dumb man suddenly grabbed me. Strange this time I didn't have the instinct to rebound, but it was him, and as soon as I turned around, I hurriedly withdrew my hand, which made me want to laugh.
"What's wrong? is anything else?" I asked him.
He ran back to the room and took out a notebook and wrote: "Tomorrow is the temple fair in the village, and the Guanyin Temple on the mountain will be very lively. ”
Where is Aunt Zhou: "Aunt Zhou is?"
The mute introduced, "It's the one I asked me to draw for you that day." ”
Oh, it turned out to be the aunt who "can speak", can I still have fun with her?
"Oh, I remembered. But I don't think I need to bother people, I can find it myself. ”
The dumb man didn't say anything when he saw that I refused directly, nodded to me and turned around to go to the kitchen, but I felt that he knew that I didn't want to be with Aunt Zhou, and there seemed to be a trace of embarrassment in his eyes when he saw me refusing just now.
The next morning, I didn't know how to get a hot brain, thinking that maybe I could touch a peach blossom, so I dressed up carefully, wore a pair of small high heels for a long time, and only after making sure that it was perfect, I went to the Guanyin Temple with the crowd.
Although this temple is not big, it looks like the incense is very prosperous, and it is still a temple fair on this day, and there are performances, and people are even more crowded.
I regret coming a little, this scene is really not suitable for me, but it's too boring to go back, so I'd make do with the crowd to see the show, but this crowd is not easy to crowd, I couldn't move a step forward for a long time, and finally had to compromise, obediently went to the back to find a high place to barely take a look.
Just as I was engrossed in sticking my head out to avoid the head in front of me, someone suddenly slapped me on the shoulder from behind. I was caught off guard and stepped off the steps with my left foot, and the heel broke instantly, followed by a sharp pain in my ankle.
I reflexively squatted down and hugged my feet and screamed, and Aunt Zhou suddenly appeared in front of me.
"Oh, Xiao Xia, what's wrong with you? Oh, I, I didn't mean to scare you just now, and I don't know why you ...... it."
It turned out that Aunt Zhou was the culprit of this accident, why was I so unlucky, I said that I didn't need her to accompany me, why did she still come. I knew it was nothing good to see her, and it was really no good thing.
"You ......" I looked at her angry and couldn't say anything, but now it's useless, I'm dying of pain, the top priority is to go down the mountain first, "Why don't you send me to the doctor soon!"
This week, my aunt has a lot of strength, and as soon as she heard me say this, she immediately carried me down the hill. She carried me to the stone bench not far from the dumb booth in one fell swoop, and she had no strength to put me down.
The dumb man didn't know when he saw us, so he hurriedly ran over and asked Aunt Zhou about the situation in a hurry. Aunt Zhou was probably afraid that I would be angry when I heard her words, so she pulled the mute aside and said for a long time.
After a while, the dumb man seemed to understand the situation, and came over in a hurry, and without asking for my opinion, he picked me up sideways and trotted all the way to the village clinic.
The dumb man didn't even look at me all the way, but I could see the worry and anxiety on his face. When I arrived at the clinic, the doctor examined my injuries, and the expression on his face remained unchanged.
Fortunately, the doctor said that I just twisted my tendons and that it would be good to rest for a few days. Hearing the doctor say it was okay, the dumb man was slightly relieved, and I heard him let out a long breath.
When I went back, the dumb man remembered to ask for my opinion again, and pointed to his back and motioned to carry me back. My ankle is still hurting, my shoes are broken, and why refuse the treatment that I should have been treated as an injured person.
I nodded at him unceremoniously: "Of course you carry me, you are responsible for my injury, if it weren't for your good neighbor, I wouldn't be like this." ”
When I got home, he put me in the yard, went back to the room, brought a medicine box, took out a bottle of safflower oil, handed it to me, and wrote in the notebook: "Wipe it every day, rub it to promote blood circulation and eliminate blood stasis." ”
What do you mean by this stupid melon, let me wipe it myself? I watched him take the safflower oil suspiciously, and he smiled at me and picked up the medicine box and left. Well, maybe come out and wipe it for me later, I thought to myself, but when he came out, he asked me, "Can you go back to your room yourself?"
I really doubt that I am dazzled, he doesn't wipe me, just forget it, and ask me to go back to the room by myself, I really doubt that the nervousness just now is fake.
"Yes, don't you bother!" I replied to him stiffly, and then got up in a fit of anger and jumped back to the room.
What enthusiasm, what kindness, why can't I see it at all now, and that chattering Aunt Zhou, I disappeared like this, it's really infuriating.
I sulked by myself, threw safflower oil on the table and fell asleep with my head covered. At noon I heard a dumb knock at the door, presumably calling me to eat, but I ignored him.
When he saw that I didn't answer, he didn't keep knocking on the door, but I became more and more angry, and I felt that the dumb man was less and less interested in me, and it was not at all the same as when I first came.
I slept like this all afternoon, and when I woke up, the mute had already picked up Feifei, and I sat up and looked at the mute cooking. My leg still hurts, but my dumb person seems to be fine, and I don't pay attention to it all afternoon, and I can't tell how uncomfortable it is.
Then I heard someone coming, and as soon as I entered the door, I asked the dumb man, "How is it, are you better?"
I immediately heard that it was Aunt Zhou's, I glanced out, and sure enough, it was her, accompanied by Aunt Zhang. I didn't want to see Aunt Zhou, so I didn't make a sound and lay down again, hoping that they would leave when they saw me asleep, but it didn't seem to work, and there was a knock on the door.
I want to pretend to be asleep all the time, but I can't seem to pretend to be such a loud knock on the door, and it's not polite to get up, and there is Aunt Zhang.
