Chapter Ninety-Nine: Feeling the Light
In the evening, after Xiao Man finished all his homework, he sat in the hall and read, insisting on waiting for Grandpa to come back with Grandma. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Grandma couldn't help it, so she had to let her, the two of them sat under the electric light, one holding a book and the other rubbing a thin hemp rope, the thin hemp rope was rubbed for Qiu Er's grandmother, and she didn't know what to do.
Grandma rubbed the hemp rope and raised her head from time to time, Xiao Man noticed that Grandma always looked at the electric light, and couldn't help asking, "Grandma, what are you looking at?"
"I didn't look at anything, I just thought there was something in that place. Grandma replied.
Xiao Man's heart moved: "Grandma, there is really something there, do you see it? What does that thing look like?"
Grandma smiled: "You child, where can Grandma see it......? Be more translucent!"
Xiao Man clapped his hands: "Oh, my grandma! That direction is the electric light, of course it's so bright! Grandma, you can feel the light!"
"Wouldn't it? I—I just think it's different there," Grandma's eyes widened in disbelief as she continued to look at the electric light, "It seems like it's really ...... It's a little bright!"
"It's not a little bright, it's really bright! Grandma, look elsewhere, hurry, compare and see!"
Xiao Man jumped in front of Grandma in two steps, and said excitedly that if it wasn't Grandma's head, she might have to reach out and help her spin around.
Grandma compared and compared, still felt that there was light in that place, Xiao Man helped Grandma into the room and kitchen on both sides, turned on the electric light, and looked at Grandma's eyes to accurately face the location of the electric light, she smiled happily!
Exciting times are finally here!
"Grandma, I'm right, right? I often drink wolfberry soup, loofah flower soup, and lotus leaf soup -- tell you quietly, don't tell my grandfather, I'm afraid he will scold me: I have added some other medicinal herbs to these soups, these herbs are not poisonous, but they are good for the eyes! Now there are no loofah flowers, but fortunately I picked a lotus leaf to dry under the eaves, and the dried leaves can also make soup. There are also chrysanthemums and honeysuckle, whether it is boiled water to drink or to wash our eyes, if we persevere, we will definitely win! Grandma, don't you say?"
"Yes, yes, listen to my little man!" Grandma was also very happy, tonight she suddenly felt that faint halo, she was sure that since she lost her sight, her world has been a deep darkness, there has never been such a feeling!
There is hope, which is always a cause for rejoicing.
At about eleven o'clock, there was a knock on the courtyard door, and at the same time, there was a shouting from the grandfather.
Xiao Man hurriedly ran to open the door, Ah Gong was standing at the door with a cloth bag on his back, and the ox cart had already been returned.
Grandma went out of the door, Xiao Man took the basin and went to the kitchen to scoop up some hot water for Ah Gong to wash his face first, and then brought a bowl of boiling water for him to drink, Ah Gong did not smile like usual, his face was a little solemn, and he couldn't help but ask strangely: "Ah Gong, is something wrong?"
Ah Gong sighed and said, "Xiao Man, Ah Gong went to Guancheng today to find out that Mr. Sun has passed away!"
Xiao Man was stunned: "That's ...... Suddenly. ”
Ah Gong shook his head: "It's not sudden, Mr. Sun has been paralyzed for many years, and there has been bad news several times, a week ago, he really went!"
He looked at Xiao Man and said, "Sister-in-law Sun said, Mr. Sun explained that you don't have to go to the spirit to offer incense in person, and if you have the opportunity in the future, you can go to the grave to worship!"
Xiao Man was in a somewhat complicated mood for a while, so he could only nod.
Grandma sighed: "Mr. Sun has treated diseases and saved people all his life, and he used to take out prescriptions to prevent epidemics, but he was not allowed to tell his real name, he is a good person, he is also considered to have a long life, he is more than ninety years old, right?"
"He told me he was ninety-seven years old. Xiao Man said.
"Alas, it's also a bad way in the world, if it is smoother, a famous doctor like him can live past a hundred years old!"
Ah Gong sighed and said: "Mr. Sun is gone, the Sun family will be in chaos, several masters, all of them want to be heads, but one of them is not convinced, alas! These medicinal materials I have today are also dragged around by them, but the brothers are raising the price of each other and competing for each other, I am really ...... I'm embarrassed to go in the future! How good Mr. Sun is alive, how he should be, and how he behaves. ”
"Then who did Ah Gong sell the medicinal herbs to today?" Xiao Man asked.
"Give it to the third room, the eldest son of the third master of Sun pulled his sister-in-law over with him, and I will give it to him!"
"The price is fair, right?"
"The price is higher than before, I said no, he had to give it, and said that he would send it to him in the future!"
"Ah Gong, what about the two Ganoderma lucidum grasses?"
"Purple Lingzhi, Sun Sanye and his son were overjoyed when they saw Purple Lingzhi, and said that they would immediately send someone to send them to other places, and they gave me a thousand yuan on the spot!"
"Purple Lingzhi alone will give a thousand?" Xiao Man exclaimed.
Ah Gong looked at her and smiled bitterly: "This can save lives, if it was put in the past...... The price will only be higher! But now in this year, it is the best time to get this price!"
Guancheng is far away, the people there and their lives, Xiao Man can't touch it, he can't feel it, he can only mourn for Mr. Sun for three minutes in his heart, and say: "Let's go, old man"!
When I came home from school at noon the next day, when I sat at the table with my grandfather and grandmother for dinner, Xiaoman proposed that when it was Sunday, the whole family would go to the market together!
"I only have a jacket, and I wear a sweater with summer clothes, which looks weird, and I have to buy some thick fabric to make a jacket, and grandpa and grandma have to make it together!"
Grandma smiled and nodded, and Grandma said, "Then go, it's time to buy some winter clothes, and then buy a new pair of shoes for your grandma." ”
Xiao Man remembered the sweater and asked, "Ah Gong, do you have a woolen ticket?"
"What? Woolen tickets? I haven't seen them! Several of our family's cloth tickets have been handed over to your grandma, and you two spent them all last time. Well, wait until I go and ask your fifth uncle and fifth aunt to see if their family still has it? Borrow some from him, and we will pay him back when our family has it later!"
"Oh, then you remember to ask, do you have a woolen ticket? Someone in their family works in the city, I think there should be. ”
"What do you want this woolen ticket for?"
"I'm useful!"
"Okay, Ah Gong went and asked. ”
Ah Gong ate first and put down the bowl and left, and Grandma asked, "Xiao Man, you have two sweaters, what do you want wool for?"
"I want to knit sweaters for grandpa and grandma. ”
"You know how to weave?"
"I don't know it now, I'll go to study in the future, but I entrusted someone, it's Sister Liu Ping from the supply and marketing store, she is willing to help me knit a soft, thick and warm sweater for my grandfather and grandmother!"
Xiao Man rubbed on Grandma's body as he spoke, and almost rubbed Grandma's chopsticks to the ground, Grandma smiled and squinted: "You naughty child!"
But it was like really wearing a soft and thick sweater, and it was warm from the bottom of my heart. (To be continued.) )
