Chapter 68: Messy

In the yard, as soon as Mrs. Li entered the house, she saw that the house was in a mess, and she hurriedly took the silver to turn it over, and she hadn't had time to clean it up.

While cleaning up, I felt sorry for the silver, and when I cleaned up the cabinet where the grain was placed, I suddenly remembered that it seemed that the third family had baked bread and distributed it to the helpers.

Immediately took out the key tied to his neck, opened the grain cabinet and saw that the bag of soba noodles and sorghum rice noodles went down a lot.

That heartache!

I didn't care about collecting the house, so I rushed out and scolded: "The third family, get out of the old lady!" One by one, this is going to turn the sky upside down, right? Taking advantage of the fact that the old lady is not at home, secretly take food pancakes for outsiders to eat? Eat things inside and outside, you are trying to empty our Lao Mei's belongings......"

Wen's aggrieved tears swirled in his eyes, and he wanted to distinguish between two sentences, but he didn't know where to start, even if he said that his sister-in-law let him do it, he was afraid that his mother-in-law would blame himself.

Momentarily disheartened.

Mei Xiaotong heard it and secretly said badly! She only cared about how to send her eldest brother to the town to rescue her, but she forgot about Wen's dilemma.

This pot can't let Wen's back!

Hurriedly walked into the door, closed the courtyard door, and stepped forward to pull Mrs. Li, with a particularly calm tone: "Mother, that is the cake I ordered my third sister-in-law to bake, I heard Tianlong say that the eldest brother's injury is not serious?" I thought that the old doctor Liu could only watch a headache and brain fever or something, and if he didn't get it right, he would delay the eldest brother's body, and he estimated that he would have to send the eldest brother to the town. Don't you have time to come and go? If you think about it, you can make some cake or something, and our own family will cushion our stomachs. ”

"I didn't think about going to town, if we nibbled on some wild vegetable sorghum cake, how embarrassing! It's not that our family can't afford to eat better, for this little thing, the people of the Mei family have been lost, in case it is passed back to the village, will our family go out in the future? So let the third sister-in-law use the materials really and not lose the share! Mother, you see that I am thoughtful, just the third sister-in-law's oily temperament, one by one, she can think so much? I'm just with you, so smart! ”

At the end, he also pulled Mrs. Li's arm, waiting for her to praise her.

Mrs. Li looked at the Wen family who lowered her head, and then looked at the girl who was still waiting for her praise, and then thought about her words, it seemed to have some truth.

Mrs. Li is a good-looking person, she has to go to the village to show off in front of the people when she has nothing to do, no matter how Mei eats on weekdays, she has to brag and brag when she goes out.

What's more, today, this cake was delivered to the Yang family shop next door, so thinking about it, the people in the Yang family shop next door also knew that the Mei family's life was good and solid.

It's a face-saving thing.

Or his old daughter has a vision!

Mrs. Li turned her anger into joy, "It's still my old girl who is smart!" I've been worrying about this for a long time, I'm tired, eat some noodles at night, and lay two eggs for you, okay? ”

Mei Xiaotong naturally said okay, "I'm young and in good health, I'm not tired at all, but my mother is tired today, and I'm sad again, eggs for my mother, as long as my mother's body is good, I'll be fine-"

Mrs. Li was coaxed into a soft and sweet heart, so she naturally didn't have the heart to scold Wen again, and waved her hand impatiently: "Okay, go to the stove house to get a scoop to scoop some bud noodles, make some noodles to eat at night, and follow my anger!" ”

Wen agreed, looked up at Mei Xiaotong with a little apologetic eyes, and felt warm in his heart, the sister-in-law is exonerating herself.

She doesn't ask for anything else, as long as her mother-in-law doesn't scold her every day, as for anything else, she doesn't want to care about anything else.

So he shook his head, indicating that he didn't care.

took the scoop to the back room, Mrs. Li scooped a scoop of bud grain noodles, thought about it, scooped another scoop, estimated that someone would definitely come back to report the news in the evening, and she had to prepare a meal.

After instructing Wen, Wen took the noodles back to the stove house and prepared to knead the noodles.

Mrs. Li was still worried about the life and death of the boss in her heart, and she was restless in the yard, looking at nothing pleasing to the eye, and doing nothing was easy.

I only felt upset, and a few little beans in the third room were scolded several times, so scolded that Xiao Duo and Xiao Juan hid in the house and didn't dare to come out.

It's really unreasonable for Mei Xiaotong to see this, I'm worried that the eldest brother can, but there's no need to be angry with the children of the three-room family!

Therefore, I put up my spirits and coaxed a lot, and finally coaxed Mrs. Li into the house, and asked her to burn incense and bow to the yellowed portrait of Guanyin on the wall, and pray for the blessing of the Bodhisattva.

Only then did he steal a vacancy and go to the stove house to apologize to Wen's.

Wen was kneading dough on the board, Xiaoque was helping her, both of them were worried, seeing Mei Xiaotong coming in, Xiaoque hurriedly brought her a small bench.

"Auntie, sit!"

Mei Xiaotong touched Xiaoque's head and smiled apologetically at Wen's: "Third sister-in-law, I am to blame for this today, I didn't make it clear to my mother, and I scolded you, it's really ......."

Wen shook his head: "It's okay! Where does the family care about this? How is the eldest brother's injury? I didn't dare to ask just now, is it serious? ”

Mei Xiaotong sighed and nodded: "I smashed my waist, I broke two ribs, and I had internal injuries, Doctor Liu said that if it can be sent to the town before dark, there is still hope——"

Everyone knows the rest.

Wen sighed, returned the key that Mei Xiaotong had given her earlier, and went back to knead the dough.

Xiaoque couldn't help but cry in her eyes, her father had been away from home for many years, and she didn't even remember what her father looked like now.

In this family, the grandfather values his aunt and several grandchildren the most, and his granddaughter has never paid much attention to it.

The only two male elders who are good to their sisters and brothers are the eldest uncle and the fourth uncle.

The fourth uncle has a big temperament, but he asked directly in front of the milk, and was fooled by the milk in three or two sentences, and he didn't care about the affairs of the family from then on.

Only the uncle, although he doesn't talk much, treats their sisters and brothers the same as their cousins, and brings a handful of fruit from the mountains, which everyone has a share.

When she is working, when she sees herself, she will help her do things.

Secretly also carried the eldest uncle's back, and stuffed the saved steamed buns to himself, if it weren't for the few steamed buns that the uncle helped, where would the mother be able to survive to this day?

In her heart, my father is probably like this for his own children, right?

Now that I heard that the uncle's life and death were still uncertain, Xiaoque was scared and sad.

Wen is an adult, and he thinks more deeply about the consequences of Wang Yongfu if he really has a good one.

Now the Mei family seems to be having a good life and prosperous children and grandchildren, but the in-laws are already old, and the work in the fields is no longer very moving.

The land in the family depends on the eldest brother and the fourth child.

You don't have to count on your own man, the second brother's family is a showman, and the lady who marries her is also a young lady in the city, so naturally she won't come back to help.

The three brothers in the big house look like they can go to the ground, but they are actually not very good.

If the eldest brother falls, I'm afraid that this family will be scattered.

What Wen can think of, Mrs. Li can't think of?

It's rare for the two mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law to think of going together at this moment.

Mrs. Li knelt in front of the Bodhisattva and begged for a long time, and her mind was full for a while, and the Bodhisattva blessed the boss with peace and security, and turned evil into good fortune.

For a while, I thought, if the Bodhisattva is very busy and doesn't hear his own prayers, the boss is really not good, and this family will definitely be in chaos, what should I do then?

It's also sad in my heart.

Mei Xiaotong and the others watched the sky getting darker, calculating the time, it should be to send Mei Xiaoque to the town at this moment, right?

Did you find the doctor? Is there any salvation?

Thoughts are all about this, and even if it is noodles for dinner, everyone eats tastelessly.

After eating, they didn't dare to go to sleep, they all sat in the hall, waiting for news.

It was already completely dark, and sitting in the room, it was so dark that I couldn't see anything clearly.

Mei Xiaotong went to the room, took out the oil lamp and lit it, the family surrounded the oil lamp, no one dared to speak, only looked out of the door.

I don't know how long it took, but I heard the sound of dogs barking one after another in the otherwise quiet village, and then there was a sound of footsteps outside the courtyard wall.

Then there was a knock on the courtyard door: "Milk, open the door, I'm Tianlong, we're back!" ”

Xiaojuan's legs and feet were the most slippery, and when she heard the sound, she rushed out and opened the door.

The two brothers, Tianlong and Tianhu, walked in, and with the help of the oil lamp in the hall, they couldn't see the expressions of the two brothers clearly, but listening to the voice, Mei Xiaotong felt that things should be quite smooth.

Sure enough, before Mrs. Li could ask, Tianlong poured beans into the bamboo tube and explained the matter clearly.

It turned out that they had gone smoothly all the way, and everyone was in the fastest way to maintain a stable state, and as soon as they felt tired, someone would change hands.

There was also an old doctor Liu watching from the side, although he was old, his steps were still light, and he couldn't walk, so Mei Changgui took a section on his back, but he didn't delay his efforts.

Hurry up and hurry, as soon as the man slips away, his clothes are soaked with sweat, and he can wring out water. Finally, before the sun went down, we rushed to the town.

Luck is not bad, Dr. Ma happened to be in the hall today, and when he saw Mei Xiaoque, he didn't say a word, he first put down a silver needle, and first hung his internal organs.

He cleaned the wound and put the bone back in place, only saying that he had lost too much blood, and that the injury was too serious, and that if he wanted to save his life, he had to use some valuable medicinal materials.

Mei Zhongzhong At this time, as long as he can save his eldest son's life, he will give up anything.

What's more, the purse that Mrs. Li stuffed into him was heavy, and he touched it when he passed it, and I am afraid that there were more than ten taels of silver, which was a bit confident.

took out the silver, and Dr. Ma dared to use medicine.

used some old ginseng whiskers and other medicines, boiled a bowl and poured it into Mei Xiaoque, Mei Xiaoque, who had started to vomit blood again, stopped vomiting blood, and his breath was thicker than before.

Barely saved his life for the time being.

It's just that Dr. Ma also said that because the injury is on the waist, and it is so serious, he can't pack a ticket and say that it can be treated, so he can only do his best.

Moreover, even if a life can be saved, I am afraid that it will cost a lot of money, so that the Mei family has a good preparation.

Doctor Ma still looks at the clothes worn by the Mei family is cleaner than that of ordinary villagers, and the materials seem to be better, and it is estimated that the family is quite wealthy.

Only then did he say this, otherwise, if he was a person who couldn't even eat, he wouldn't dare to use medicine, because he couldn't afford to cure it!

The Mei family said in unison, as long as there is hope, it is natural to be cured.

Doctor Ma said that he had already used medicine, and if Mei Jiafu could survive tonight, then he would be fifty or sixty percent sure, if he couldn't survive tonight......

Mei Zhongzhong hung in one breath, looking at his eldest son with a face like gold paper, how could he bear to say that he would not be treated? I am willing to exchange my old life for my son!

is still the brother of the Li family, seeing that this situation is not very good, thinking that the Mei family has no mind at the moment, but he stood up and thanked the man and the old doctor Liu for the help of the Mei family.

The man who helped bring Mei Jiafu here, when he heard the doctor Ma in the town say this, he estimated that it was more than lucky, and it was not good to say much, so he only shook his head and sighed and said goodbye to go home.
