Chapter 31: Go home and take the children
Du Shichang has always been a person who dares to think and do, no, a few days ago when he just wanted to find out the bottom of the new batch of delegated personnel in the primary school dormitory, he took action today.
It happened to be raining lightly in the sky, he checked the drainage channels all over the field, and found that the water was flowing smoothly everywhere, squatted by the river, washed the muddy water on his hands and legs, put down the high-rolled trouser legs, put on the thick-soled straw shoes that his mother specially made for him with a mixture of straw and mats, and walked towards the brigade primary school.
Those people came for a few days, and the brigade arranged for them to clean up the pigsty, and the old and young partners, in groups of several people, should have finished their work at this time, and were hiding in the house to avoid the rain.
Besides, if anyone suspected him of approaching those bad elements who had been sent down, Du Shichang would have already made an excuse.
He pulled out a black umbrella from his waist, hehe, the excuse was to send an umbrella to his daughter-in-law who was in the brigade elementary school, who dared to say him.
Listening to the sound of Lang Lang's reading, Du Shichang looked at a few classrooms, but didn't find that his daughter-in-law was in class, thinking that this should be a break in the office, but it was better not to let his daughter-in-law know about this matter today. So, he avoided the office and walked down the side path to the back row.
"Uncle Zhang, what should I do, Miao Lao, he has a fever again." A man who looked to be in his twenties, with a blue beard and messy hair, was carefully twisting a towel and carefully applying it to an old man's forehead.
"It would be nice if I could find a doctor to take a look, or I could find a few antipyretics, otherwise, Miao Lao's situation is not good!"
"Who says it's not, but it's good that the people here don't fall into the well, and you still expect them to be able to send charcoal in the snow?" Uncle Zhang patted the young man's shoulder and sighed, "Alas, whether Miao Lao can survive this time depends on his own creation." ”
"Uncle Zhang, you said I went to beg the captain here......"
"Don't make trouble for other people's brigades, we people have traveled to so many places, and here, we will think more about it, otherwise, even if it is raining outside now, then we have to go out to work, how can we let you stay in the house to avoid the rain?"
Of course, Tang Jie understood what Uncle Zhang meant in front of him, but he promised Miao Lao's daughter and son-in-law that he would take more care of him on the road. Since you promised others, you have to do what you say.
"I'd better try it, after the big deal, I ask to go to the hardest and most tiring place to work, otherwise, I feel uncomfortable."
"Alas, you can go if you want, maybe the captain here is not as complicated as I thought, maybe people do this to everyone."
"Then trouble Uncle Zhang to help take care of Miao Lao first, and I'll go back as soon as I go, whether it succeeds or not." As he spoke, Tang Jie took out a burlap bag from the house, trying to put it on his head to block the rain.
"Don't worry, I'll take care of Miao Lao." Uncle Zhang, a middle-aged man, waved his hand and said, "Be careful on the road, tell people well, if the other party doesn't agree to you, don't force it, come back quickly, let's find another way." ”
"Hmm."
But as soon as Tang Jie opened the door and went out, he ran into Du Shichang, who was about to knock on the door, and the two almost bumped into each other.
"Uh, comrade, you...... Something? Tang Jie asked in surprise.
Du Shichang looked at the man in front of him carefully, he was very thin, his face was not good, he was too pale, but he was bookish, no matter how he looked at it, he was a literate person.
"You...... Is this going out? Du Shichang didn't answer the other party, he couldn't say that he was here to verify.
"That...... Someone in the room was uncomfortable, and I thought I'd go to the captain and see if I could get some medicine. ”
For some reason, Tang Jie felt that the man in front of him was the same age as him, he could believe that it was really strange.
"Someone is sick? Is it strict? Du Shichang asked anxiously, "Can you tell me what kind of illness I am, maybe I can get medicine." ”
"Really, that's great." Tang Jie's excited voice trembled.
"Don Jr., who's coming?"
"Oh, Uncle Zhang, it's ......" for a long time, and he still doesn't know who the other party is?
"I'm a member of the Mulberry Brigade, so I'm here to see the situation." Du Shichang casually pulled the blame.
"Xiao Tang, let this comrade go into the house first, it's raining outside."
"Oh, yes, yes, this comrade, come in, get in, come in."
Tang Jie happily let people into the house, and Du Shichang did not refuse, took the umbrella in his hand, and followed into the house.
At a glance, I saw an old man lying on the bed, his abnormal face, and he looked like he was having a fever, "I have a fever, how long has it been?" ”
"It's been since the middle of the night last night, and I'm already a little confused." Uncle Zhang, a middle-aged man, changed a towel for Miao Lao and explained.
"It's been so long, that's not good!" Du Shichang frowned, although he didn't study medicine with his uncle, he still somewhat understood that if people had a fever for too long, they would directly burn their brains or burn their eyes.
"Yes, there is no sign of retreating at all, we are really worried that if this continues to burn, Miao Lao will ...... him"
"What's his last name?" Du Shichang's eyes suddenly widened and said, his surname Miao is too sensitive, isn't his eldest aunt surnamed Miao?
"Miao, Miao Lao's surname is Miao, and his full name is Miao Dongqing."
"Miao Dongqing? Miao Dongzhu? Du Shichang muttered secretly in his heart.
Such a close name? Looking at the other party's age again, although he has been beaten into a bad element now, he can't die without help, right?
"You wait, I'll go to the brigade clinic to find some fever medicine." Du Shichang didn't bother to speak, and said directly. He had doubts in his heart, and of course he hoped that the old man would get better soon, so that he could solve his doubts.
"Well, that's great!" Tang Jie and Uncle Zhang were very happy, but after thinking about it, they were afraid of causing trouble to each other, so they asked cautiously, "Will it cause you trouble?" ”
"Don't worry, that person has a good relationship with me." Du Shichang hurried to the door after replying, holding an umbrella and about to go out, "Let's feed him more water first, so that it may alleviate the situation." ”
"Hey, okay!"
Du Shichang was hurrying all the way, and his mind was constantly thinking.
If the old man surnamed Miao is really a relative of the eldest uncle, then does their family recognize it or not?
Admit that it should be, but the identity of the other party is a trouble. He can't put the whole family in danger, but if he doesn't admit it, he seems to be a little careless. Alas, what a headache!
If you don't want to think about it, let's let the old man's illness get better first!
Maybe he can discuss it with his father and mother, or he can listen to the opinion of the old man surnamed Miao.
Suddenly, he patted his head again and muttered, "Why am I so sure that the person surnamed Miao is related to the eldest uncle?" Why, why ......"
Du Shichang directly dizzed himself, he felt as if he had brought trouble to his family, maybe he shouldn't have come to any brigade primary school today, he should have checked the canal and honestly went home to take the child.
