Chapter 45: The Purpose of the Grandparents and Grandchildren
Seeing her cousin leave, Jiang Qiao gave the old man and her a meal, her dishes were relatively small, mainly because she had no appetite for this dish, a big pot of stew, there was not much oil and water, it was rotten, she liked the powder soup.
The old man chatted with the captain while eating, and as the leader of the first team, he was still very concerned about the situation of these wounded.
"After the injection, it is temporarily relieved, but I currently have no medicine in my hands, in the afternoon, I will take my granddaughter into the mountains to collect medicine, and come over to apply medicine to them in the evening, but I have to trouble you to help arrange a place to live." β
Jiang Xiuqi waved his hand, "This is easy to say, the place is either nothing, or it is dirty, I will let people clean up when I turn around, you live there, I just want to trouble you to help my mother take a look at her legs, she is old, and her legs and feet are not good, I looked for a doctor before, and I didn't see an ugly person." β
Qiao Jie happily agreed, Jiang Xiuqi didn't pay attention to the little girl who was eating with a stuffy head next to him, the first time he looked at him, he didn't feel anything, but looking at Jiang Qiao's eating posture, he intuitively felt that this little girl was not simple.
Let's not say that the country children can't compare with each other, let's just say that the city children, he is not a person who has never seen the world, and the city children can't compare to the posture of this little girl eating.
Especially when he saw Jiang Qiao looking up and telling the old man that he wanted to pay the food stamps, and seeing the appearance of the little girl, Jiang Xiuqi was stunned for a moment, how could this child look so familiar, too much like his brother and wife.
If he hadn't known that this little girl was the granddaughter of the old man, he would have almost thought that she was a good brother's outcast, but he remembered the incident back then, could it be that there was really something wrong with the little girl's life experience?
Pressing the excitement in his heart, he said with a face as usual, "What kind of food stamps are not food stamps, eat a meal, where are we embarrassed to ask you to pay, this is not a way of hospitality, besides, you always give free medical treatment to the villagers, if you really want to talk about it, we should pay for it." β
Jiang Qiao shook his head and looked at Jiang Xiuqi seriously, "Uncle, this account can't be calculated like this, my grandfather is a doctor, and it is his duty to treat diseases and save people, but this canteen is collective, we may have one or two meals and maybe the big guy doesn't have any idea in his heart, but after a long time, it's hard to say."
You see, my grandfather will often come to collect medicinal herbs in the future, and your place is just right for us to settle down, so that we don't have to endure the pain of going back and forth.
So you always listen to me about this, you should pay for it, if you come to your house for dinner, then I won't mention it, so the big guys can't say anything.
Also, can we rent that house for a long time in the future?"
Jiang Xiuqi was a little embarrassed about this matter, "There are a lot of farm tools in this house before, I'm afraid that you will dislike this thing and get in the way, and I haven't thought of a suitable place for a while." β
The old man spoke first, "It's okay, it's okay, our grandparents and grandchildren are just asking for a place to live, the rest is easy to say, we don't live here for a long time, I don't have time in the future, this girl will come over to help pick herbs, and spend the night with others, it's not a matter for a long time, the child lives alone, that's absolutely no problem." β
The old man immediately made a decision to rent this house and pay a year's rent first, he wanted to make it convenient for Jiang Qiao to come back to see the little brother and them in the future.
And he and the little brother haven't talked about the old days yet, and you said that it's inconvenient to live with someone else's house, so you came up with such an idea.
One old and one young insisted, Jiang Xiuqi felt that these two people were definitely human spirits, there were some things, he didn't say, but people understood in their hearts that they were doing it brightly, so that it would be convenient for him to work in the future.
After the two of them made a decision, the old man and Jiang Xiuqi went over to pay the money and receive the key, and Jiang Qiao walked to his grandfather's side, but on the way, he met the ones who didn't have long eyes, that is, the boys who beat her cousin last time, especially the sharp-beaked monkey gills, seeing Jiang Qiao, the flattering smile on his face, it was annoying to watch.
"Little girl, let's meet again, do you still have sugar this time?"
Jiang Qiao squinted at the other party, "Do you want candy to eat?" yes, but there is no free lunch in this world, help me do something, and I will give you candy to eat." β
The eyes of several boys lit up, and the gluttony on that face made Jiang Qiao can't bear to look at it directly, it's better to be his eldest brother, life has come to that extent, and the child has always maintained a well-educated appearance.
Jiang Qiao looked at his fingers casually, "Oh, I'm hungry for fish, whoever of you catches fish for me, I'll give him candy to eat, what do you think?"
The boy with the sharp-beaked monkey cheeks snorted, "You are stupid, why don't we eat the fish ourselves, hum, dead girl, if you want to eat fish, catch it yourself." β
After that, he pulled a few boys and left angrily, but two of them stayed where they were, the boys who didn't approve of the group fight that day.
The boy was kind to Jiang Qiao, and they already knew that this little girl was the granddaughter of Doctor Qiao.
"Your name is Jiang Qiao, right?"
Jiang Qiao nodded, and raised his chin, "What's your name, why don't you leave?"
The boy touched his head embarrassedly, "My name is Tiedan, his name is Tietou, my uncle's child." β
"You don't have a big name?"
Tietou nodded, "Yes, my brother's name is Qi Xiang, my name is Qi Lin, we will catch fish for you, how much sugar can you give us?"
Although Jiang Qiao didn't know why the two of them were so eager for sugar, he still stretched out his palm and gestured back and forth, "If there are more fish, ten yuan per person, if you perform well, I will have a reward in the future, how about it?"
The two and a half children didn't understand what Jiang Qiao meant by this good performance, so they asked stupidly.
Jiang Qiao glanced at the two of them, "If there are shrimp and crabs, catch some, by the way, ask me who sells eggs, you two help me contact, if you buy it, and then reward you with other food, how about it?"
The two brothers jumped up excitedly, "Great, let's go catch fish, don't worry, we all have it, we originally had to go out to sell it, and it's convenient for us to buy it." β
The two brothers just wanted to leave, and suddenly remembered something: "By the way, you be careful of that thin monkey, he has a lot of eyes, don't let him block you halfway." β
Jiang Qiao smiled arrogantly, "It's just him, it's okay, after getting something, give it to me when you eat, I'll go first." β
The people who had eaten went back to rest and rest, looking at the steelmaking of steelmaking, Jiang Qiao checked it, and there was no one around, so he quietly walked into the cowshed.
Gu Zhihong in the house has already woken up, the little guy has eaten the food brought by Jiang Qiao, and now when he sees her in person, it is called a enthusiasm.
"Sisterβ"
Seeing Gu Zhihong, Jiang Qiao wanted to sigh, if it was placed before liberation, how could this child be said to be the treatment of the little master, you look at the current appearance, even she feels sad when she sees it.
An eight-year-old child is about the same as a five-year-old child, with little weight and big eyes, but he is quite energetic.
Jiang Qiao smiled and sat beside his little cousin, "How do you feel, are you much better?"
The little guy nodded happily, "It's much better, not confused at all, sister, grandpa said, it was you who gave me the medicine, sister, where have you been, why haven't you come to see us?"
