Chapter 33: The Beginning of the Heart

When Rong Bai arrived home, Hengqing was gasping in bed. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 infoThe weather was really hot, and the tea on the table had been drunk and the heat had not been relieved.

The only thing that can be done is to move less and reserve more strength.

Rong Bai pushed the wheelchair home, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw Hengqing panting. "Hengqing, it's so hot. ā€

The rainy season of Rong Bai's era was also in summer. Moreover, the summer at that time was much hotter than this time. There are quite a few people joking that you can cook soup on the concrete floor and drink it.

However, even in the summer, Rongbai's world was not as dry as it is now.

"It was unusually hot on this day. Hengqing looked out the window worriedly. The sun outside was so hot that even the insect chirpings that could be heard in previous years became weak.

Rong Bai's heart hung secretly. This world is completely different from the world where Rong Bai is, although the world where Rong Bai is is no longer suitable for human beings, however, human beings have also evolved supernatural beings.

Suffice it to say, as long as you stay in the base, humans will not be short of water and food. However, in this world, human food is all based on cultivation, to put it bluntly, it is to see the harvest.

And this season happens to be the season of grain filling, and if this weather lasts for a while, then you can imagine what will happen next.

Hungry thing, Rong Bai doesn't want to go through it a second time.

However, Rong Bai's worry only lasted for a moment, because Rong Bai saw the food in the house. You know, Rong Bai spent fifty taels of silver to buy a lot of grain, and when the rainy season came, he was afraid of rotting. However, in this weather, if the grain wants to rot, then there must be conditions.

Anyway, whether it rains or not, Rong Bai thought, I'm afraid he won't be short of food.

It was useless to think so much, Rong Bai still pushed in the wheelchair he made for Hengqing, the all-wooden wheelchair was a bit heavy, and Rong Bai did not have a power assist device. However, after Hengqing saw the wheelchair, his eyes lit up instantly.

"What is this?" Hengqing had never seen a wheelchair, but he had seen a four-wheeled bicycle in a book. However, the four-wheeled cart that Rong Bai was pushing in his hand was completely different from what Hengqing had seen.

"Wheelchair, for you. Rong Bai replied.

In this era, there is a lot of discrimination against people with disabilities. Rong Bai, who often goes to the town, often sees people kicking disabled family members out of the house. And those people, who have lost the ability to work, often have only one end.

Therefore, for a long time, Rong Bai also understood what Hengqing's inferiority complex was. Now, Hengqing has a wheelchair, and when he is away, he can move around at will, and he doesn't need to nest in bed anymore.

"Thank you. Heng cleared these two words, and couldn't say anything. Although his legs are still unconscious, when he sees this four-wheeled vehicle, Hengqing feels that he is no longer a wasted person.

"Then I'll help you up and try it?" Rong Bai suggested.

"Good. ā€

The four-wheeled vehicle designed by Rong Bai is equipped with a hand-cranked power system, although it is very cumbersome, but when Rong Bai is not there, Hengqing can still force himself to act.

Otherwise, every time Hengqing didn't dare to eat and drink too much, for fear that he would want to go to the toilet when Rong Bai was away.

"You shake it yourself, here's forward, here's backward, this handle is for turning. Rong Bai explained, while teaching Hengqing hand in hand, where are these handles.

The four-wheeled vehicle that Hengqing has seen in books, how can there be such a high-end operation method as Rong Bai, that kind of four-wheeled vehicle, it is clear that a domestic servant follows behind and pushes it.

After listening to Rong Bai's words, Hengqing tried to operate the four-wheeled bicycle to "walk" outside the house. Rong Bai had already knocked off the threshold of the house, and the inside and outside of the house were connected by a ramp.

In the past, Hengqing was still curious about why Rong Bai knocked off the threshold, but now she is afraid that she has long wanted to walk through this wheelchair by herself.

The yard is also flat. All the places that Hengqing needs to go are paved with stone slabs. A wooden wheelchair, pressed against a stone slab, squeaks. Hengqing didn't seem to hear it.

Without Rong Bai's help, he was able to come to the courtyard, and Hengqing was satisfied. Even if the crank is heavy, every little distance you go, you use almost all your strength.

Hengqing, fixed his eyes on a small room in the corner of the courtyard. It was a thatched house, a place that Hengqing had never been to since it was crippled.

The smooth stone road leads all the way to that side, and obviously, Rong Bai thinks that Hengqing can go to the toilet through his own efforts.

"Thank you. There was a little more choking in Hengqing's voice.

Rong Bai stood at the door, looking at the men walking around the yard, and the smile on the corner of his mouth never disappeared.

"That way, you'll be able to move freely. In the future, how about I leave the affairs of the family to you. Rong Bai asked, tilting his head. Rong Baicai is not the Virgin, arousing Hengqing's desire to survive, if he is not used to looking down on cheap life, then getting this wheelchair for Hengqing is to squeeze the last bit of value of Hengqing.

Otherwise, according to Rong Bai's character, where would he raise a useless person.

"Good. Hengqing maneuvered the wheelchair with difficulty, turned around, and looked at Rong Bai with burning eyes. If Rong Bai wants to run such a home, then help her run it yourself.

In the next few days, the weather became hotter and hotter, and the sky did not let alone rain, and not even a single cloud drifted. The water level of the river in front of the house has been dropping, and Rong Bai's boat has long been stranded on the river beach.

However, there are many benefits to the drop in the water level. For example, Rong Bai found a lot of delicious food by the river. Recently, there has been a trend towards more and more diversification of food at home.

Rong Bai no longer goes to Zhenxi to sell food. The original plan was to sell food because I was worried that food would not be stored during the rainy season. Now that the food is well stored, what else do you want to do in the west of the town.

What Rong Bai didn't know was that as the river dried up, there were no merchant ships in Linjiang Town to dock for a long time, and the hard laborers who worked on the docks had long since dispersed.

Now Rong Bai has to do not go to the town. Hengqing was already able to prepare lunch by himself, and Rong Bai's time was almost relieved. The river is dry, and the water from the embankment is often mixed with silt, which is no longer suitable for drinking water.

Therefore, Rong Bai took the time to go to the mountains and made up his mind to bring a water source from the place where he hunted wild boars last time. The tools used are also easy to find, that is, the bamboo in the mountains, pick some thick bamboo, hollow in the middle, and draw water down the mountain from the side of the stream.

So, early in the morning, Rong Bai dragged a lot of bamboo back from the mountains. They are all arm thick, and they have to be three or four meters long. The thickest part is used as a canal, the thinner ones are used as containers, and the rest is split into thin slices and woven into baskets and sold.
