Chapter XXXVIII

Cheng Shigui and the others watched the family busy and fulfilling, and they also felt that since the matter was resolved, it was time for them, and they didn't want to be visited as a rare animal, so they planned to say goodbye and leave.

Grandma hurriedly prepared more food for them, everything she needed. Especially seeing that they like to eat all kinds of small dishes and game, Grandma took them a small jar and filled ten jars. There are also a lot of fruits and souvenirs in various spaces.

Cheng Shigui whispered to her that it was no wonder that 'Sister Nan' was reluctant to leave, and there were no other places to see them. "Some of them haven't had time to taste yet, but since he ate them, he has come to rob them once a year around Christmas and before New Year's Day, and he has taken them away more than once.

"'Sister Nan' will be installed as soon as possible, and we will discuss urgent matters." These were their last words before leaving.

Watching their car disappear into the street, the whole family was gone. Grandma grabbed Fang Monan and asked if this really has to be pretended."

"This is convenient for us to communicate at work, grandma, why don't we pretend" Fang Monan thought that he would use it a lot in the future.

"This is too eye-catching, our county has a few departments except for the public, and there are no private ones." Grandma frowned and said that if you want to install it, you have to find a good excuse, but you can't spread rumors because of this, especially for our steamed bun stall. ”

"They came with such a swagger, driving a car so swaggeringly, it is estimated that it has spread by now. You can tell the outside world that for the sake of contact between relatives, they will leave money for us to install. ”

"Well, that's what I said to the outside world." Grandma thought about it, for the sake of her granddaughter, this is also safe.

Cheng Shigui came in a hurry, and before people could react, they went in a hurry, leaving only the big blows that people imagined.

They just drove away, and at this time, the eldest aunt who had not seen each other for a long time suddenly came to visit, not to mention the previous life, that is, after Fang Monan was reborn, except when she secretly pulled coal and met once, and wanted to take advantage, I saw her come to the door. Why this time?

In fact, the eldest aunt didn't want to come, I had heard a lot of words outside, I wanted the child and his father to ask about the situation, whether there were really rich relatives, I heard that he still came in a car, but he didn't agree to come, and the two quarreled about it, but they didn't succeed. Although she is now eating free steamed buns, compared with the real banknotes, it is still far worse, for money, not to understand the situation, whether it is true or not, in short, it has a nose and eyes, you have to take a look. I had to put on my own clothes.

The eldest aunt was standing in the yard, it happened that grandma was not at home, and everyone else was busy in the kitchen, and when the aunt saw her coming, she blocked the door and didn't let her in, and said sourly, "Tsk...... It's really rare, the sun is rising in the west, you busy man, come up to us. She then mocked, "I won't be the one who came into battle to get the steamed buns in person, my mother is also a small business, but she can't stand the shameless and skinless people who eat for nothing."

"Huh...... Xiaoyan, I heard that a noble person came to our family, driving a black car. She said with a smile, no, she thought that the aunt was talking sweetly, she turned a deaf ear to the sarcasm of the aunt, but she didn't hear it, compared with the banknotes, the sister-in-law's sour words couldn't hurt her at all.

"That's my ** relative, and I have something to do with you" The aunt was unceremoniously and excluded her.

After listening to the words, she rubbed her hands awkwardly, and said patiently, how can she say, it has nothing to do with me, aren't we a family?"

The aunt didn't want to talk nonsense with her anymore, let alone look at her disgusting face, so she said directly. "A family, a family will slander people behind their backs; Family, forget it, what are you doing with this? You're late, and the people are gone. ”

"People are gone, don't you say it earlier, let me stay here to accompany ...... Smiley. Your peace of mind. She looked at her aunt dissatisfied, but she didn't dare to make too loud noises, for fear of being heard. Hehe...... Then I'll go first. She left in a hurry, in fact, her purpose was achieved, confirming that relatives did come to the family, and as for whether there was money or not, the child's father had to come forward.

"Hmph......" The aunt turned around and saw Fang Monan, and immediately changed her face to smile. Nannan, what are you doing?"

"I'm from the toilet." Fang Monan replied.

"I saw it all just now." Auntie looked disdainful.

"Well, I saw it, the charm of money." Fang Mo Nandao, otherwise, how could I meet my aunt and uncle

After hearing this, my aunt thought about it, she was really right, she was really shameless. I must tell her mother about this and get vaccinated properly.

After Cheng Shigui left, the post and telecommunications bureau came to the house to install it on the same day, and the tap water was quickly installed. Two days later, the contractor also signed the contract, and the contract was signed by the mother.

The eldest uncle couldn't stand the noise at home, so he had to lick his face. "Mom, what about eating," he asked, awkwardly as he stood outside the threshold.

"Yonghui is here, have you eaten, come in and eat," grandma beckoned.

"Hey" the eldest uncle came in, looked at the aunt's gloomy face, and remembered 'business' again, "Ah, I ate at home." He walked to the table of the Eight Immortals, pointed to the TV and said with a smile Is this a TV? It's still colored, it's so good-looking. ”

When my aunt heard his words, she was afraid that her grandmother would be hot-headed, so she hurriedly said that this is someone who respects us" I am afraid that he will not understand, and said bluntly that it is not for you to be honored. Anyway, she didn't plan to solve the grievances between their brothers and sisters in this life. The wicked become the wicked.

Grandma muttered, her eyes darkened, and she didn't say anything in the end?

The mother glared at the aunt, "Say, the eldest brother is not that kind of person" The mother's sentence is even more ruthless, and the mother is mighty

"Yes, what Dayan said is right, look at what Xiaoyan said, don't I put filial piety first" The eldest uncle blushed and said after a long time.

The aunt snorted coldly, turned her face away and stopped looking at him.

Grandma still followed Fang Menan's script despite being embarrassed, but everyone is gone, and what benefits have to be seen by talents, you can't really honor the old lady's family, that is really going to be punctured. He said some more words that didn't hurt or itch, and had to leave helplessly.

After he left, the atmosphere was a little cold, Fang Monan turned on the TV, "Grandma, look, the clothes they are wearing are all bought in Liangzi's store." "The gag finally got back to its original atmosphere in the room.

After Cheng Shigui and the others left, the days passed peacefully, and with the arrival of TV, Fang Monan and their evening life was much richer, but there were very few entertainment programs at this time, and it could even be said that there were almost none. Most of the time, everyone comes to watch the news broadcast, and there are few TV series, and they still maintain the entertainment method every night.

Fang Mobei played the newly bought violin, very happy.

On New Year's Day, my dad had a holiday, and I haven't seen him for almost a year since my dad left for the Spring Festival. Fang Monan looked at him with a smile on his face, life was not good.

Dad wanted to talk about the 14-inch black-and-white TV he bought, but when he saw the 18-inch imported color TV at home, he couldn't speak.

Grandma broke the siege in time, "This TV was sent by my cousin." ”

"Our cousin? "Dad looked at Grandma curiously, there have been changes in the house for a few days, and this is too fast.

"Oh is this...... "Mom cleared up his doubts, and by the way, he changed the subject, not talking about the topic that Dad was embarrassed about.

However, my father was nervous, and after that, he acted like a nobody, 'don't hold grudges', and took out an old-fashioned Shanghai-made seagull camera to offer treasure. This was originally prepared last summer, when they asked them to go to the capital to play as children, but they didn't go, but they had already bought it, so they had to bring it. "That's right, you can take a family photo."

The mother took out the couple watch with a treasure, "Ah, where did you get such a beautiful watch?" Dad asked.

"Cousin, I sent it. We all have it. Mom said, "Come and try it." ”

"It's so pretty." Dad brought the stinky beauty road, is this real gold, don't jump words. He asked, confused.

"18 gold." Fang Menan said.

"Oh, you can't wear it, this thief. Especially now that there are many idle people on the streets, the law and order has deteriorated. Let's wait and say, "Dad, take it off, put it in the watch box, cover it, and give it to Mom for safekeeping."

"It's time to put it up, if the thief doesn't have it, I'm afraid to go up and walk around and honor others again." Mom said sourly.

"Huh...... How can it be, won't this let you put it away" Dad was embarrassed and quickly shifted his gaze and asked, where did this relative of our family come from, so arrogant. ”

Grandma said it again in detail, and told him not to mess around outside

After Han Zhiqian, there were a lot of brand-new ready-to-wear clothes in the packages sent again, both for adults and children. Fang Monan really shook her head, she politely refused in her reply, she was already in a storm in the city, and she was wearing these brightly dressed clothes, so as not to provoke others' eyes.

Fang Menan remembered a little story: a man met God, and God said to him that now I can grant any of your wishes, but at the same time as fulfilling your wishes, your neighbor will get double the benefits of you, for example, if you want one farmland, your neighbor will get two farmland, and if you want a house, your neighbor will get two houses." As a result, this man was unwilling to let his neighbor take such a big advantage for nothing, and finally he said to God, "You gouge out one of my eyes" The man in the story thought about it and finally came up with such an incredible answer,

The problem of pink eye, human nature is like this, people are always full of jealousy, the real society is like this, you can't see others better, everyone is at the same level, there is nothing to say, if suddenly a person is beyond everyone, then the words can be heard.

Standing out from the crowd, the crane is more uncomfortable than the chicken, it has to bear a lot of pressure from the group, and there is a price to pay for being outstanding, so the excellent often need self-protection ability. So it's good to stay at this level for the time being, and don't be too outstanding.

After New Year's Day, after taking pictures, my father stayed and was even busier, and I thought it would be easier for me to have a winter vacation in high school. I didn't expect that the Chinese New Year was not far away, and there were more people rushing to the market around it. Every day, my dad hits the back of his head with his busy feet, but the rewards of hard work make them happy and happy.

Fang Monan had nothing to do, running around with his camera, and sometimes even running to the market with his father, 'click, click', leaving a souvenir. Sometimes I take a charcoal pen and sketch this happy picture, and I can also practice painting, of course, at most for the family.

In a blink of an eye, it was the year-end summary, and grandma earned more this year than last year, smiling like a flower. Although the steamed bread business declined at the beginning due to following the trend, it gradually picked up, increasing the variety of cabbage and pork buns (five cents a piece) and flower rolls, and carefully calculated that the income of steamed buns and steamed buns was about 4,000 yuan. Of course, she hasn't told anyone about the money in Fang Monan's passbook until now, not even her daughter, there is too much money, and she is afraid of scaring them.

Although grandma has no culture but has experienced more, maybe as the granddaughter said, people are not necessarily happy when they are rich, only when they want, money can become a tool for them to achieve their goals, before that, looking at the young daughter and, it is better to hone more. It seems that these things are still good for Nannan to say.

Of course, grandma also saw that this granddaughter didn't want too many people to see her unusual side, what she saw was her coquettish side like her parents, enjoying their love. This also decided that she would not reveal more to them.

On the twenty-third day of the lunar month, my grandmother summed up the year's life and her income increased, and she prepared ten new cotton quilts for the family to replace them with new ones as soon as she entered the winter. Take four for my father, when my mother got married, my grandmother's family was poor and didn't even prepare a quilt, so the money was surplus, and the first thing she thought of making up for it was this.

The family is really feeling that the family has changed a lot, and everyone's face is full of happy smiles, looking forward to a better year ahead.

On the twenty-fourth day of the lunar month, it was the turn of Fang Monan and Liang Zi to make their year-end summary.

Liang Zi was a little embarrassed to say Nannan, you don't, our store, that is, it was more popular in the first half of the year, especially in the county in the past few months, it has become more and more unpopular, the sales of the store, only 20,000 or 30,000 yuan a month, this is still I carrying a bag to promote in various units in the city, and I can't sell a few thousand yuan, I'm really worried that if it goes on like this, we will close down. "The only thing that comforts me is the clothing business."

The thin monkey and the fat man also nodded and said yes, business is a little difficult. There are also more people selling goods in the provincial capital, but it turns out that there is no one. ”

"Well, this is normal, the county market is saturated, and there are competitors in the provincial capital, so the sales volume will naturally go down." Fang Mo Nan said, "We seized a head start, at that time, everyone had never seen foreign goods, let's get in, everyone is interested, and we will buy more." Now everyone is used to it, and it doesn't feel new anymore. In counties and cities, the efficiency of state-owned factories is not good, which naturally affects purchasing power. Although there are greenhouses and aquaculture in rural areas, they are now in a period of development, and farmers do not dare to buy these 'luxury goods' on a large scale. ”

"Nannan, I want to discuss with you, now there are more unemployed young people and idle people in both the county and the city. It's dangerous for us to go out and sell because we're too eye-catching. So we plan to wholesale the goods, so that no one dares to mistreat us on our one-third of an acre. Liang Zi said.

"Well, the last time I went to a county, I met a thug robbed, and I got into a fight with him......" The fat man was talking about 'great achievements' and was kicked twice by the thin monkey.

"Why are you kicking me, I haven't talked about the excitement yet" The fat man looked at the thin monkey dissatisfied, and saw the thin monkey pointing at Fang Monan, and suddenly hehe...... Giggle.

"Okay, I won't let you go out and cause trouble, but you can't be bullied. Is the fat man injured? Fang Menan pretended not to see the small movements of the two and asked worriedly.

"I didn't ...... didn't ......, that kid couldn't help but fight, how could he withstand Lao Tzu's fist. I ran away by three hits and five divided by two. The fat man remembered the situation at that time, with a look of regret, and blamed the other party for not doing his best, so that he didn't enjoy it.

"Okay, just do as you say, divide the money, and it will be wholesale in the next few days, it's almost the New Year, don't go out and run again." After Fang Menan finished speaking, he divided the money, and everyone got nearly 50,000 yuan.

"Big brother...... Brother Liang Zi, my eldest brother is here, don't skip words. Fang Monan and the others were about to disperse when they heard someone shouting outside.

"Xiaomei, your eldest brother is at my house, come in," Liang Zi opened the door.

Xiaomei rushed in, pulled the fat sea and left, "Big brother is going home, our mother is dizzy." ”

"Now, who is she?" Before Fang Monan could see the person clearly, the fat man and her ran out.

"It's Pan Xiaomei, the fat man, it looks like the fat man is sick again." The thin monkey said worriedly.

"Alas, the fat lady was not a serious illness in the first place, but unfortunately because the family was poor, she was delayed." Liang Zi is worried about the thin monkey, let's go too, and see if we can help. ”

"Nannan, let's go home first," Liang Zi said to her.

"Liangzi, have you forgotten your shoulder, don't jump words. Fang Menan reminded.

"Ah, you...... You can heal. Liang Zi was surprised, "Yes, my shoulder was healed by you." This Aunt Pan's illness ......"

"I'll have to see the patient before I talk about it." Fang Menan said.

"So wait? Let's go" Liang Zi and the others rode bicycles and carried Fang Monan to the fat man's house together.

When Fang Monan went to the fat man's house, he first returned home and took the medicine kit to hide people's eyes. This medicine box is taken out of the space, made of gloomy wood, embalmed, black-brown medicine box, which looks like an old antique that is often used, giving people a heavy and reassuring feeling.

Liang Zi carried the medicine box on his back, rode a bicycle, and walked towards the edge of the city with Fang Monan.

Fang Monan went to the fat man's house for the first time, his home is next to the county in the countryside, and it is only 20 minutes away by bicycle.

The main house is, three adobe houses, and when you enter, the walls are not whitewashed, and the mud and straw are exposed. The house is also an unhardened yellow mud floor, pitted, like the surface of the moon, but it has been tamped by a long walk. The furniture is only a small square table for eating, as if it is made, and a few small wooden benches. There are also advertisements for the feed mill on the dusty walls, and by the way, look at the date.

When Liang Zi and the others opened the curtain and entered the house, they saw that the fat man was about to carry his mother out.

"Lay it down, put it down, let's see first." Liang Zi said.

"Big brother, this can't be delayed. We had to go to the hospital. After listening to his words, the fat man hurriedly said.

"Put it down first, it's not bad for a while. You forgot who healed my arm, I brought the doctor. Liang Zi put the medicine box on the bed and went to help put the fat lady (fat aunt) back on the bed.

Fang Monan saw that the fat man's lower limbs were already in the advanced stage of vasculitis, and her legs had ulcers due to severe blood circulation disorders, which had spread upward to the ankle joints or calves. The pain was so intense that she fainted.

"Nannan, let's see if you can cure it without skipping words. Liang Zi moved out of the way and let Fang Monan go to the bedside. Then he said to the fat man and the thin monkey that she had cured the wound on my shoulder. "With the heart of the fat sea.

When the fat man heard Liang Zi's words, his heart relaxed, he had heard the old stubborn man say that the people who treated Liang Zi's injuries had very high medical skills.

Fang Monan walked, "Bring scissors, and warm up the house." ”

"Oh" The fat man hurriedly brought the scissors, he hurriedly lit the fire, felt that it was not good, and went to bring the charcoal basin again.

Soon the room warmed up, Fang Menan took scissors to cut her two pants to the knee joint, and Liang Zi and they took a breath. Both legs swelled black and purple, and in some places began to fester.

The fat man looked at her with anxious eyes and asked, "Can it be cured?" The doctor said that there was a serious venous thrombosis and had proposed amputation, but my mother did not agree. It's okay to start taking medicine first, but I don't know when it was just a foot, but then I didn't expect ?????" He choked up and couldn't go on.

"Fat man, thin monkey, you go out and boil a big pot of hot water, Xiaomei, go find some clean gauze, the best medical one, and alcohol." Fang Menan commanded.

As soon as the fat man heard her say that he could be cured, he quickly ran out.

Fang Menan saw them leaving, "Liang Zi helps me guard the door, remember not to let them in." ”

"Okay, don't worry" Liang Zi stood at the door, looking at her with his eyes.

Fang Monan put the wooden box on the bed, there was not even a decent table at home, he reached out and pressed it on the flower bone on the surface of the box, and heard a "click", and the box cracked a crack from the side.

Ordinary wooden boxes are opened and closed up and down, with a lid on the top and a box body below, but Fang Monan's box is opened and closed left and right, the box is first separated from one side, unfolded 180 degrees, and then combined around the vertical axis on the other side, becoming a small standing cabinet, as if we opened a book, and then opened the book vertically on the table.

The cabinet is divided into three layers, the upper layer, more than ten white porcelain bottles, the porcelain bottles are directly embedded in the concave base, so that there will be no shaking; The lower two floors are all drawers, the middle one is four small drawers, and below are two drawers that are one size larger.

This kind of box is called the medicine treasure chest, which is an item that doctors carried with them when they visited the clinic in ancient times. The white porcelain bottle on the upper layer is generally filled with trauma medicine and some first-aid medicine for resurrection; The four small drawers in the middle are stones, acupuncture, fire cups and other equipment; The two large drawers below, one for pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, are used to write prescriptions, and the other for dry food and medical books, in case of emergency.

When he got this box, Fang Monan couldn't put it down, which was really good. After sterilizing the needles used for acupuncture, she looked at the unconscious patient and happened to use the needles. She took off her shoes first, climbed onto the bed, and took off the patient's shirt.

I saw that she quickly filled the patient's whole body with silver needles, and then she sat on the bed, but she didn't expect that although the patient's bed was broken, it was washed white and clean. Holding the patient's wrist vein, he began to stimulate the aura and swim towards the patient's legs.

Fang Monan looked inside the affected area through the aura, and the thrombus blockage was very serious, and it seemed that it took a lot of effort. She took a deep breath and increased the delivery of aura.
