Chapter Seventy-Two: The Barefoot Doctor
Before the second exam, the intensive training class had a three-day holiday, and Gu Zhen stood at the gate of the factory, watching people come and go, and he was still a little unaccustomed.
It's out of the New Year, and everything is back on track.
Liang Zhenhua took two big orders, went to Shenbei on a business trip, left after the fifteenth day of the first month, and came back in March, fortunately, the people in the factory did not make trouble, they all kept to their own work, nothing urgent happened, and Chen Suyun could still take care of it.
There are only Grandma Liang and Chen Suyun left in the family, Chen Suyun doesn't like to talk, and she has nothing to say for two years, although the relationship has eased a lot, but Grandma Liang stared at Chen Suyun's stomach and worried.
It's been half a year, why hasn't there been any movement?
It just so happened that Gu Zhen came back, so that Grandma Liang had a chance to invite a doctor specializing in gynecology to come by knocking on the side.
Gu Zhen walked inside, and people in the factory who knew Gu Zhen would ask: "Little girl, is it a holiday?" ”
Gu Zhen smiled and nodded, counting it as a response.
Grandma Liang sat on the stone steps basking in the sun, and she saw Gu Zhen's face pale, and his body was thin and dry, like a long-legged dragonfly.
"Really, my granddaughter is back." Grandma Liang stretched out her hand, hugged Gu Zhen in her arms, and kissed her head.
Chen Suyun heard the voice and came out of the factory, carrying two bags of parts to be put in the office for retail.
"Really, your Uncle Liang has gone to Shenbei, and it will take a while to come back, you have to help take care of the family in the past few days."
Chen Suyun's order, Gu Zhen immediately responded: "Okay, Mom, I'll change my clothes and come." ”
Grandma Liang was not happy, and grabbed Gu Zhen's hand: "My granddaughter just came back and let her work?" I don't agree, I want Gu Zhen to accompany me back to my previous village to see, I haven't been back for the Chinese New Year, and I don't know what happened to my neighbors in my hometown. ”
Grandma Liang was embarrassed to support Chen Suyun, Liang Zhenhua was busy and couldn't see anyone, she couldn't let go of Gu Zhen.
Chen Suyun thought that Gu Zhen took care of Grandma Liang, so she didn't have to be distracted to pay attention to what Grandma Liang was doing at all times, and it was also a good thing to concentrate on watching the workers in the factory, so she was relieved.
"Go ahead, let Brother Jia from our factory drive Zhenhua's tricycle to send you there."
"No, no, I'm not old enough yet, I'll go with Zhenzhen."
Grandma Liang has been suffocated since she moved to a new house, and there are few familiar people around, so she has long wanted to go back to the village to have a look.
Gu Zhen saw Chen Suyun's worried expression, and also persuaded him: "Grandma wants to move around, I'll follow, and when we're tired of walking, we'll take the shuttle, don't worry." ”
finally moved Chen Suyun, Gu Zhen and Grandma Liang loaded some small biscuits, took a pot of water and went on the road.
Along the way, Grandma Liang looked at the bare mountain and felt beautiful, and there was a layer of white snow on the top of the mountain that had not melted, like a soft quilt.
Winter in the north is so desolate, with the occasional clump of pines and cypresses, and the dark green needle-like leaves, which are already a rare color.
But these are the scenery in Grandma Liang's eyes.
Gu Zhen's ears were no longer the sound of Cheng Xiaolei muttering and reciting texts, nor the sound of him writing scratch paper, only the cold wind could be heard blowing the towering branches, a few dogs barking in the distance, and the occasional sudden engine sound of a passing tractor.
"It's so quiet." Gu Zhen couldn't help but sigh.
Grandma Liang also said: "Yes, the older people get, the more afraid they are of quietness, and sometimes they like to be lively." ”
Gu Zhen turned his eyes to look at Grandma Liang: "Grandma, you are not old, Uncle Liang is so handsome, it's all up to you, you are good-looking, Uncle Liang can have such a tall and upright face!" ”
This sentence directly amused Grandma Liang, she held Gu Zhen's little hand and was reluctant to let go, touched it twice, and suddenly asked, "Zhenzhen, are you in trouble?" ”
Gu Zhen didn't react for a while, and was stunned for a while before thinking that what happened meant the menstrual period.
Although she was eighteen years old, in fact, in her previous life, it was only after she was twenty years old that she went to college, and she didn't know anything at that time, blood was everywhere, and she thought she was going to die.
Her college classmates helped her organize her clothes and taught her how to use tampons, but most of the time she couldn't afford to buy tampons, so she bought large chunks of toilet paper and stuffed them into her pants instead.
Gu Zhen touched his stomach: "Not yet." ”
Not only not, according to the time of her previous life, there are still two years before she will come to her menstrual period. In her previous life, she and Chen Suyun were struggling to survive, how could they care about these things, which also led to her delay in getting pregnant after her marriage with Xu Minglin.
She has a weak constitution and a stunted uterus, both congenital and acquired factors, and taken together, her menstrual period in her previous life not only came late, but also was not punctual.
Grandma Liang was slightly surprised: "You're eighteen, right?" It's a bit late......"
In their generation, it is normal to have menstruation at the age of thirteen or fourteen, and it is very likely that there will be no menstruation for the rest of their lives beyond this time.
There was one in their village, and later married an old bachelor, who was beaten every day, had no status at all in the family, had no children, and had no one to support the elderly.
Gu Zhen didn't care, she didn't have any obsession with children, especially after experiencing the scene before death in her previous life.
A strange woman is pregnant with a child, lives in her house in a grand manner, and kisses me and me with her husband.
Child, is it that important to have children?
Gu Zhen's ears still seemed to be Xu Minglin's gentle words: "If we don't have children, it doesn't matter, it's enough for me to have you." ”
But he clearly cherished the child in the woman's womb so much, and the lies were sometimes not only beautiful but also easy to believe.
Gu Zhen was distracted, it was not enough for Grandma Liang to hold her little hand, and she reached out and touched her face: "Don't be afraid, grandma knows an old Chinese medicine doctor who specializes in treating women's diseases, which is what Western medicine says now about gynecological diseases, but God, I'll stop by and take a look." ”
Gu Zhen hummed, and then came back to his senses and reacted: "You want to see a doctor?" ”
Grandma Liang said faintly: "Or invite the doctor to our house and help your mother take a look at ......"
Although it was just gossiping and chatting, Gu Zhen also responded casually as Grandma Liang, but Gu Zhen understood in his heart that people of Grandma Liang's age wanted to hug their grandchildren.
In her previous life, Chen Suyun did not have any more children, which is also a point where the conflict between her and Yang Chunsheng intensified, Yang Chunsheng wanted to have children, but in such a family state, did giving birth to a child make him suffer?
Chen Suyun didn't say it, but Gu Zhen vaguely knew that Chen Suyun was pregnant and secretly miscarried, so in order not to be discovered by Yang Chunsheng, she didn't do a little moon at all, so she fell into the root of the disease.
The more Gu Zhen looked, the more depressed she became, her hands clenched unconsciously, and Grandma Liang frowned and asked softly, "Are you tired?" Really, why are you sweating so much? ”
Gu Zhen didn't speak, just nodded, and pulled Grandma Liang to sit on the stone pier on the side of the road to rest.
"Grandma, get a doctor...... Doctor" Gu Zhen found that grandma was still used to calling doctor, so she changed her words: "Go to our house, take a good look at my mother, and take care of her body, she has been really tired over the years." ”
Gu Zhen is not worried about Chen Suyun, since under the living conditions in her previous life, her body can get pregnant, and if she recuperates well in this life, Chen Suyun will definitely be able to!
Grandma Liang was originally worried about whether she was making Gu Zhen unhappy by talking, but now when she heard Gu Zhen say this, she found that Gu Zhen was very sensible, and she loved her even more.
"I have to show you, you have a small body, you fall down when the wind blows, grandma has to make you chubby for nothing!"
"Thank you grandma for caring about me and my mother, grandma can also look at her waist and legs, I remember that grandma has leg pain every autumn and winter, the three of us can adjust together, and we can pay attention to the diet together."
"Hmm." Grandma Liang banged on her legs, and a warm current surged in her heart, this 'picked up' eldest granddaughter really didn't hurt in vain.
The two of them rested for a while, and happened to meet Uncle Wang, who was a neighbor of his grandmother, and rushed to the market to buy oil, and the two got into the carriage and went back to the village together.
Grandma Liang finally met a familiar person, opened a chatterbox, and asked everyone who was big or small, did anyone's daughter-in-law give birth? How many catties of meat did someone's pig kill at the end of the year, and did Lao Li Po and her son come back to pick her up and go to Haicheng for the New Year?
Uncle Wang was also bored in the car, and chattered with Grandma Liang all the way, Gu Zhen leaned on the edge of the carriage, and in order to stabilize his body, he clutched the iron frame of the carriage tightly, and his hands were red from the cold.
arrived at the entrance of the village like this, and Grandma Liang pulled Gu Zhen out of the car.
"Why don't we go back and see the old house together?"
Uncle Wang's house is next door to Grandma Liang's old house, and he warmly invited: "It's still quite far from our street, why did you get off the bus?" ”
"We have a little bit of other things to do." Grandma Liang didn't explain much: "The two of us will walk back to see it later, thank you for bringing us back, Brother Wang." ”
"Alright then, girl, goodbye."
"Goodbye, Uncle Wang." Gu Zhen also took the initiative to wave his hand.
Uncle Wang waved his horsewhip, and he heard the carriage creak and start moving again, and disappeared into the alley after a while.
Grandma Liang looked at the mud house surrounded by stone walls at the entrance of the village: "That is the barefoot doctor in our village, who is very good at seeing a doctor, let's go and set a time with him first." ”
Gu Zhen obediently followed Grandma Liang there, and smelled a faint medicinal fragrance from a distance, and when he got closer, he saw Chinese medicinal materials drying at the door, and a casserole was warm on the stove at the open door of the house, steaming soup and medicine.
A man squatted on the ground and looked at the stove, fanning the wind from time to time, Gu Zhen frowned a little, because that man looked like Gu Zhen's waist was so high, and he turned out to be a dwarfism?
Grandma Liang forgot to explain the condition of this barefoot doctor to Gu Zhen, but she was not worried that Gu Zhen would make any rude moves, Grandma Liang stood at the door and shouted, "Doctor Li." ”
The man turned around and squinted, but his eyesight was not very good.
Gu Zhen felt that this person was either really a strange person who was rewarded by heaven for food, or he was a liar.
