Chapter 7: The ruffians make trouble
When I got up the next morning, I saw that Mr. Shen was obviously in poor spirits when I had breakfast.
After going to the construction site, he just turned around, sat on a dirt slope and dozed off in the sun. I just thought he didn't get a good rest last night, so he didn't pay much attention and still did his own work.
Everything on the construction site is going in an orderly manner. After all, everyone is more experienced, and they can solve general problems by themselves.
Suddenly, the sound of a carriage was heard in the distance, and it soon came to a stop near our construction site. I saw a man in his forties and fifties who got out of the carriage, dressed very sloppily, got out of the carriage and walked to a migrant worker and said something. I thought it was someone from my family who was looking for something, but the migrant worker then pointed to Mr. Shen, and the man walked towards Mr. Shen.
I thought to myself, is this going to be a part-time job? I looked at Teacher Shen, who was still sleepy, and shouted at him, "Teacher Shen, Teacher Shen." He heard me call him, opened his eyes and turned to look at me, and I pointed to the man who was striding over there.
Teacher Shen looked over and didn't know what he was here for, so he stood up and patted the soil and greeted him. The Jinshi construction site has always been free for idlers, no matter what he is doing, Mr. Shen has to go over and ask.
Although the migrant workers have always liked to watch the excitement and look up one by one, today's atmosphere makes me feel very wrong. Soon the man was very close, and before Mr. Shen could speak, the man suddenly took out a knife from his waist, rushed up quickly, and waved it at Mr. Shen.
I don't know which girl next to me reacted fast enough, so she shouted first: "Be careful!" ”
Although Mr. Shen is not young, he is still quite strong, and his reaction is quite fast, he turned sideways and grabbed the man's hand holding the knife, and the two were deadlocked. Seeing that the situation was not good, I quickly turned over from the probe, picked up the probe shovel on the side, and rushed behind the man.
The probe shovel is the Luoyang shovel as the saying goes, a wooden stick head is a slightly sharp annular shovel head, there are not many relics on the construction site, and the iron rod is not prepared.
Although I was in a hurry, I didn't go crazy, I knew that stabbing this guy with a shovel head would not break the bone and get internal injuries, so I used the Luoyang shovel as a wooden stick and slammed it on the guy's hind leg socket. The best effect of leg sockets is to make people kneel. This time the strength is still not small, and he is defenseless against what is behind him, and the next game suddenly loses his balance, and the whole person leans back. Looking at me clearly in the direction of Mr. Shen, I was prepared, I pressed on the ground, and pushed the man hard with his elbow, and both of them fell down, but Mr. Shen pressed on the man.
At this time, several young migrant workers also rushed over, snatched the knife in the man's hand and threw it aside, and then replaced Mr. Shen to control the man. That's when I saw that the entire construction site was looking at this side in a daze.
After Mr. Shen was replaced, his whole body seemed to collapse, and I helped him to stand up very hard. Teacher Shen asked a few villagers around him, almost gasping for breath and asking, "Who is this, do you know each other?" ”
The one next to him said: "Our village is a ruffian, usually idle, bullying the weak and afraid of the hard, when he was young, he was often beaten by us, and today he dares to come here to spread wild." We didn't expect him to dare to stab someone with a knife, otherwise we wouldn't let him get close to Teacher Shen. ”
When the man heard this, he turned his head and glanced at the migrant worker with disdain, who was also ruthless, and slapped him back in the face.
"Okay, please work hard, I'll ask the officials to deal with it." Saying that, Mr. Shen asked the villagers to inform the village chief, and then went to the town official office to report.
Then he said to everyone, "It's all right, let's get back to work." When everyone saw that, they went about their work.
Teacher Shen said to me, "Okay, that fight just now was good!" ”
I smiled and saw that he was not injured, and went back to his side, but from time to time I got up to look at the man. Teacher Shen is still sitting on the mound on the side basking in the sun, his head is high and low, and he seems to be dozing off again?
Those migrant workers were really conscientious in their duties, and they didn't let go before the officials came, and they firmly controlled the ruffians.
The construction site is going to rest again this afternoon. Because after the official came, after listening to the general situation of the incident, he dragged the ruffian, Mr. Shen, and me, and a migrant worker who testified back in a carriage to make a confession.
It turned out that the migrant worker who the man had just come to the construction site to find was his "informant", and that day we found that the matter of the tomb in the gang mule square was leaked by several migrant workers on his side, and was listened to by this "informant", and he told the ruffian at night, and the ruffian originally just wanted to use this to say that the Jinshi team dug up his ancestral grave to make some money, but he didn't expect to be cleaned up, and ended up with 20 boards.
I think about it carefully, the distance between him and Mr. Shen at that time, if he pulled out a knife and stabbed, Mr. Shen was afraid that he would be more auspicious, and he might just be ruthless, but he didn't expect to smash the performance.
When our group came out of the yamen, Mr. Shen thanked the migrant worker who testified, hailed a carriage and paid for him to go back first.
Teacher Shen said to me, "You have nothing to do anyway, come with me to the big medical hall, I seem to have a cold today, go see the doctor and buy some medicine." ”
"Cheng, let's go." The two of us beckoned a donkey cart, and the "cool" wind blew all the way to the big medical hall, which seemed to be more like cold to Mr. Shen.
When I went to the big hospital, the emergency doctor saw it, said that the symptom was a common cold, grabbed some medicine and sent us away. After coming out, Mr. Shen sighed: "I'm old, I'm useless, and I can be sick like this in one night, I've never had it before." ”
"You drank too much last night, did you kick the quilt when you went to sleep, and you caught a cold?"
"No, I don't have this habit when I'm so old, and the quilt is well covered in the morning, and I don't know why I catch a cold."
We also found a carriage to send us back to the village, and on the way, Mr. Shen pretended to complain that the officials were not thoughtful enough, and they just took people and gave them away, and the coachman thought that we had just come out of the official office, which was not a good thing.
I comforted him and said, "Come on, it's not a servant, who will control that ruffian and protect our safety?" You can't find a few people to take him all day long, one day's salary is enough for the fare. ”
Teacher Shen only smiled, and didn't have much strength to speak again.
When you have a cold, the most important thing is to rest. After coming back, it was about two o'clock in the afternoon, and I asked Mr. Shen to take medicine with hot tea, and hurry up to sleep for a while, maybe it will be better when I sleep and sweat at dinner. Mr. Shen only nodded, and walked towards the dormitory, he looked weaker than when he was basking in the sun in the morning, I thought to myself that he was really sick now.
Who knew that when it was time for dinner, the four of us went to call him together, but he didn't wake up, and he only whispered something in his mouth, and we couldn't hear it clearly, but we thought that he was uncomfortable now, and I didn't think about it, so I helped him cover the quilt tightly, and went to eat.
When I was eating, I asked me what was going on, and I said that the doctor had a cold and fever, and had already prescribed medicine to take it, so it was estimated that it was no big deal, so everyone didn't ask more. After eating, I boiled him a bottle of hot water and put it on the edge of his table, and picked up two steamed buns and put them on the table, if he got up at night and was thirsty and hungry, he could solve it by himself.
Just as I was going out to the courtyard, I heard a knock on the door, it was a villager I had met before, who had come to report the news.
It turned out that the ruffian who was sent in today to beat the board actually died, and he died violently, and some people in the village suspected that we had caused him internal injuries in the morning, and now let us wait for the notice at any time, and we are not allowed to leave here without permission.
I said in my heart that this was really unlucky, and continued to call Mr. Shen, but he still didn't react. I feel that something is wrong now, it stands to reason that people with a cold and fever can't wake up, right? There was a faint sense of foreboding in my heart.
I hurried back to the dorm to tell them about it, and asked them what they could do. The big waist said: "Don't worry about the yamen for the time being, they can't do anything without evidence, anyway, we don't plan to go anywhere, now we should go to the village to find a barefoot doctor, if not, we have to send people to the big medical hall." ”
Everyone agreed, so immediately went out to the nearest family to inquire whether there was a barefoot doctor in the village, this uncle usually saw us at the door of the house and we were all kind, this time to see us to explain the intention, he kindly led us to the village Tulangzhong's house, but knocked on the door for a long time, there was no movement inside, the uncle said: "Not good, this old man is afraid that he is not at home, his son has recently moved to the city, I don't know if he was picked up." ”
We thanked the uncle, but I was more anxious than just now, and I was a little bit bad at memorizing words today.
However, in a hurry, an idea moved in my mind, and there was another person who might be able to find it - Lao Liu, he might have a way!
I couldn't drag it out, I immediately took this couple to Lao Liu's house, Lao Liu's house was still not closed, I went in and shouted like Teacher Shen did last time: "Lao Liu, is Lao Liu at home?" ”
But I immediately realized that I was also dizzy, which was too impolite, and people were so kind to me, so I immediately changed my words: "Master Liu, are you at home?" ”
