Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The old people here are polite and enthusiastic, and everyone they know come to greet Xia Wei, one of the elderly couples took out their ID cards in the ID stack and put them in front of Xia Wei. ”

The old man said aggrievedly: "Mine is on top, it's already our turn, I'll take it to Dr. Xia to measure blood pressure, there are many people over there, and my wife and I are here." Lao Ji didn't say anything more, Xia Wei looked up at the old man, it turned out to be the father-in-law and mother-in-law of her old colleague Ah Lian, Xia Wei greeted her with a smile and said, "Okay, this side will be fine immediately, you guys wait for a while." ”

The old man smiled and said, "It's okay, you're here again." ”

Xia Wei still smiled and said, "Yes, the physical examination is the business of our department. Xia Wei hurriedly beckoned: "You can sit down now, you take off one sleeve, and I will help you measure your blood pressure." ”

The old man took off his sleeves and stretched out his arms and waited for Xia Wei to measure his blood pressure. Xia Wei finished registering, picked up the cuff and tied it to the old man's arm, cheered up, and then deflated, Xia Wei's eyes were fixed on the mercury column of the blood pressure monitor, and then changed to another arm to measure again, after the measurement, Xia Wei said to the old man: "Your blood pressure is normal, remember that it has always been very high before, tell me how to do it?" ”

The old man said happily: "Yes, now the country doctor has always given me a normal amount, I just listen to you, the food is light, I have to exercise after dinner, the most important thing is to have a good attitude, and the children are filial to us, so I must lower my blood pressure." ”

Xia Wei said, "Okay, congratulations! But be sure to persevere, and I wish you all good health and happiness forever! ”

The old man was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth, and the old couple took the physical examination form to the next door for a physical examination.

At this time, a familiar voice shouted, "Doctor Xia, you are also here, do you still know me?" ”

Xia Wei looked up and saw that it was Master Zou, who used to work as a carpenter in the health center, so she replied with a smile: "Of course I know, Master Zou, you are still the same." ”

Master Zou smiled reluctantly and said, "Hey, old man."

Xia Wei smiled and said, "You're not old at all, where are you now, why haven't I seen you many times?" ”

Master Zou smiled and said, "I went to work in the city, and I am usually not at home, so I happened to come back to rest this time." ”

Xia Wei said: "Okay, I have seen a lot in the city." ”

Master Zou put away his smile and said lightly: "It's good, it's good, I don't know much about the mechanized operation, and I broke two fingers, although I went to the hospital to connect my fingers, but this hurt the thumb and index finger of the right hand, and I can't use my strength to work, so I can only do some chores, and I can't do carpentry." ”

Xia Wei hurriedly comforted: "Oh, you have suffered hardship. Then Xia Wei didn't know what to say to comfort him, so she was busy measuring his blood pressure, and then told him: "Master Zou, your blood pressure is a little high, you should pay attention to diet and exercise, and more importantly, you must be in a good mood. ”

"Okay, listen to you." Master Zou responded while taking the physical examination form to other places for physical examination.

Looking at Master Zou's back, Xia Wei fell into memories.

It was when Xia Wei had just come to work at the Huhu Health Center, Xia Wei and the head nurse were inspecting the ward, and suddenly, they found that the handle of the bedside table in a ward was gone, and the head nurse said to Xia Wei: "Xiao Xia, you go to the bungalow next to the outpatient building and ask Master Zou to come and repair the handle of the bedside table." ”

Xia Wei replied, "Okay." After saying that, he ran to the carpentry room. When she came to the carpentry room, Xia Wei saw a man in his thirties bending over to dig wood, the ground was covered with planed wood flowers and wood chips, and there was a finished bedside table leaning against the wall.

Xia Wei shouted: "You are Master Zou, our head nurse asks you to go to the ward to repair the handle of the bedside table." ”

The man stopped what he was doing, looked up and smiled, "Well, yes, I'll go over right away, you're new here, why haven't I seen you before." ”

Xia Wei replied with a smile: "Yes, not long after I first came, I feel that you are quite familiar with the people in the hospital." ”

Master Zou was happy and said proudly: "I am a long-term carpenter in the hospital, tinkering, making cabinets and beds or something, such a large hospital is also indispensable for carpentry, so I am very familiar with the people in the hospital, I saw you a few days ago, and I haven't talked to you yet." ”

Xia Wei smiled and said, "Okay, I'll ask you for help in the future." ”

Master Zou said proudly: "In a word, if there is anything in your dormitory that needs to be repaired, come to me, and it will definitely work." ”

Xia Wei said happily: "I thank you first for the people in our dormitory. ”

Xia Wei smiled, this enthusiastic Master Zou has injured his fingers now, and the carpentry work he is good at may never be able to do it, it's a pity to think about it. How many young people nowadays are willing to learn carpentry?

A few days ago, I heard from the people in the village that the old carpenter in the village died, and I missed it.

I remember that the carpentry grandfather made the flower bed at home, and his fine wood carving, the sturdy bed frame, the edge of the mirror frame on the dresser carved from wood, the wood carving on the back of the wooden chair, and the carved flower lattice under the table of the eight immortals in the living room, as well as the flower and bird patterns carved on the screen, are still in front of me. The carpentry work in the village is done by the carpenter grandfather, but the most regrettable thing is that the carpenter grandfather has never brought an apprentice, is the old man stingy and unwilling to teach the craft to others, or can he not find anyone willing to learn carpentry at all? No one knows.

In short, the carpenter's grandfather is gone, gone forever with his exquisite craftsmanship. I heard that on the day the carpenter's grandfather left, many people in the village sent him, and the funeral procession was very long, and everyone said regretfully: "The old carpenter is gone, and no one in the village will do carpentry carving in the future." "A lot of people cried.
