Chapter 27: The big house is out of luck
The Wei family was old and wounded, and they supported each other to go out. The people who gathered at the gate of the county government to watch the excitement angrily threw the vegetable leaves, rotten melons and fruits in the vegetable basket in their faces, and chased them all the way to the ox cart.
Du Huaibing thanked Shen Zhanghua and led Du Mei out later. Six people were crammed into the ox cart, and the big golden buttocks were beaten to pieces, so they had to bother Du Huaibing to drive it himself. After walking on the road for more than two hours, the old cow was so tired that he spit out white foam before he saw the curling smoke of Dujiagou.
Entering the courtyard, Du Shicheng, who was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, hurriedly picked up Du Huaibing and went to sit in the hall.
Du Zhu and Du Zhuan, who were unable to give up, were shocked when they saw the tragic situation of their parents. The two hurriedly stepped forward, Du Zhu carried Dajin who was screaming all the way, and Du Zhu supported Zhou, whose face was swollen like a cloak, back to the big house.
After Xie helped Wei back to the house and lay down, he hurriedly fled back to his house.
The three younger sisters standing in the kitchen looked at Du Mei with a worried expression, and she smiled at them, she was dragged away by Du Huaibing, but her mother and sisters were scared a lot.
Du Mei drove the unattended ox cart to the cowshed and fed the cows some fodder, but the ox cart was too big for her to unload.
"Bang bang bang" is the crisp sound of a slap on the table, followed by Du Shicheng's roar: "Lose virtue! Iniquity! Ahem"
"Take your breath and watch your body. It's not early, I should go back. Du Huaibing took his leave.
Du Shicheng got up and sent Du Huaibing out of the courtyard, he kept coughing.
"Grandpa, my dad has to ask for a doctor!" Du Shu had already cut open Dajin's clothes and checked it, the skin was tattered and the flesh was in tatters, and the blood soaked through several layers of pants inside and out. He was frightened by this terrible injury, so he had to beg for it.
"Please. However, when it comes to the ugly words, I won't take a single one of their things like this to lose their ancestors! Du Shicheng glared at him and walked away.
Du Shu gritted his teeth and went back to the house to ask Zhou for money. Zhou was angry, but she couldn't say it, and Dajin was in unbearable pain, so she had to take out dozens of big coins from the cage and give them to Du Xuan.
Half an hour later, Du Xuan drove the ox cart to invite Zhong Yu.
It was only a few days before Zhong Yu came to Du's house again. He passed by the kitchen and smelled the smell of thunder mushroom chicken soup, and his eyes flashed with tenderness.
Zhong Yu looked at Du Dajin's injury, to say that the strength of this servant to beat people was just right, only the flesh on the buttocks was smashed, but it did not hurt the bones.
directly debridement and medicine, and Dajin was so painful that the ghost cried wolf. Zhong Yu prescribed another prescription to stop bleeding and build muscles.
Zhou's face also looked at it, and her injuries were quite light. Zhong Yu prescribed a few pairs of herbs and called them mashed the face.
Zhong Yu inadvertently saw Du Zhu sleeping on the bed with a red face, not in a normal state. Out of the benevolence of the healer, he asked, "Is your child also sick?" ”
"I don't know, my brother has been sleeping for a day, should he be sick?" Du Bolt interface is puzzled.
Zhong Yu felt the pulse with his hand, and sure enough, he had a fever.
"He's hurt." Zhong Yu said.
"Nope." Du Shuan touched his head. It shouldn't be an evil one, Du Zhu hasn't gotten up since he came back from the river beach yesterday. There was a lot of trouble in the house at this time, and he didn't even wake up.
Zhou was afraid that Zhong Yu would ask for a price, so he glanced at Du Xuan again and again.
Zhong Yu saw it in his eyes, so he didn't mention it anymore: "Follow me to the hospital to get the medicine, and the medicine will come with the consultation fee, three hundred yuan." ”
The money in Du Xuan's hand was not enough, so Zhou had to take it again with a black face.
Zhong Yu took the money, didn't stay long, turned around and left.
"Sir......" Du Mei stood at the gate of the courtyard.
"Your mother...... Something? Zhong Yu was a little nervous.
"No, my mother is fine, I just thank you, my brother has something to eat." Du Mei smiled, his eyes were bright, and the sunset was inferior.
"That's good, take good care of it during the confinement, and you can also take care of the previous illness." Zhong Yu's brows furrowed.
"Got it." Du Mei bent his knees and blessed.
"If you have anything in the future, just come to the medical hall to find me, you can keep the account first, don't worry." Zhong Yu admonished.
At this time, Du Xuan had already driven the ox cart, and seeing Du Mei's eyes, Zhong Yu got into the car and went by himself.
Dinner has been burning for a long time, and Du Ying has already brought dinner to her mother. Du Mei went to the house and told her mother and sisters briefly about the affairs of the county office, and then took out the money and showed them it.
Xu Shi listened to her words and silently wept back, if Erjin was here, how could he suffer such humiliation in vain. Du Mei softly comforted her mother and persuaded her carefully.
Since the gold coveted is not something that their little people should covet, they will hand it over if they hand it over, and it will be a bane. It's just that this hanging money has to find a place to collect it.
Du Mei left 10 texts for tomorrow. The others were wrapped in handkerchiefs and hidden in a pit dug in the ground in the corner. She was not at ease, and piled some miscellaneous items on it.
It's already three o'clock, and the kitchen hasn't started yet.
The big house was so busy that the Zhou family couldn't even speak, so naturally he couldn't eat. Du Dajin's buttocks hurt like fire, lying on the bed coughing and sighing, and he didn't have the heart to eat.
Xie went back to the house and lay down. Seeing that they were beaten bloodily one by one, she didn't have the appetite to eat, and she was disgusted when she thought about it.
Wei's court was frightened, and when he came back, he bumped on the ox cart for more than two hours, and a handful of old bones almost fell apart. She lay down on the bed, and only then did she ease up a little.
Du Shicheng listened to Du Huaibing tell the ins and outs of the matter, and he was so angry that he wanted to shave the old woman's ears. But seeing the old woman so tired that she collapsed, she couldn't do it. He had no choice but to sit sullenly at the table of the Eight Immortals in the hall, smoking one cigarette after another, and then coughing like a flurry of coughs.
It's not that he feels sorry for the orphans and widows in the second room, but he can't afford to lose face. Du Shicheng has lived for more than 50 years, and he walks with a straight waist in Dujiagou. The words are also a spit and a nail. Only those who watch other people's jokes, how can anyone be poked in the back?
The pot of cigarettes was quickly finished, and he stumbled on the leg of the table. With both hands in his hands and behind his back, he headed to the kitchen.
There were a few fewer people, and the kitchen was sparsely seated, Du Shicheng's face sank, and he said in a muffled voice: "Eat!" If you go out to make trouble today, no one is allowed to eat or give it away! ”
The four sisters of Du Mei ate with their heads bored, Du Xuan and Du Zhu were hot on their faces, and the brothers were like their mothers, and they were used to being strong. Grandpa's words like this are obviously slapping them in the face.
As if the Sanfang family didn't hear it, Sanjin took a pair of children to eat by themselves. Xie's hypocrisy can't see blood, they are not bad at eating, there are japonica rice and white flour eggs in the house, and they can eat whenever they want.
"Meizi, tomorrow your father's head seven, go to the old man's house in the west of the village to buy some tofu shutters." Du Shicheng ate the last bite of food, took out two pennies from his pocket and handed them to Du Mei.
"This ......, I have money." This was so unexpected, Du Mei was stunned.
"You can take it and use it." When Du Shicheng heard this, he paused and said.
Du Mei held the copper coin in his hand, and let the copper coin cling to the meat. It's like a knife cutting her heart. Tomorrow, her father will leave their mother and daughter for seven days.
"Tomorrow it will be your uncle's turn to kill the New Year's pig, you go and cut the knife meat, and when we kill it, we will return him." Du Shicheng said again.
The so-called killing of New Year's pigs is to enter the wax moon, and the villagers line up to kill the pigs they have raised for a year. A pig is about 100 catties, and a family is reluctant to eat it if they can't finish it, leaving only half a fan or less, and the rest is sold to the butcher Zhang who killed the pig.
If there are also pigs in the village, you can also go to the house of the first person to cut the meat, eat it or pickle it, and wait for it to be killed, and then return it with the same part and the same amount. The villagers are proud that their pork is divided by the same villagers, proving that they are popular.
When Du Zhu and Du Zhu heard the tofu shutters and pork, they seemed to smell the rich aroma of food, and the saliva secreted from their mouths made them swallow a few times.
Du Ying didn't expect that there would be so few people eating at night, and there were a lot of wild vegetable porridge and nests left. I'll just leave it for tomorrow's breakfast.
The Dumay sisters cleaned up the kitchen and went back to bed.
In the big room, Zhou's was so hungry that he scratched his heart, turning over and over on the bed to make kang baked cakes. Da Jin's ass hurt like fire, and he was irritable, so he raised his hand and gave her a slap.
"What are you doing with me?" Zhou's is a willing to suffer. She was drugged and could speak incoherently.
"Stinky, if it weren't for you, how could Lao Tzu be beaten like this!" Du Dajin's regret is to blame himself for being impulsive. How did he know that Shen Zhanghua was scaring Cui Xishun by beating him.
"Who am I for, not your mother!" Zhou did not relent.
"You still dare to speak! If you hadn't asked your mother to check the authenticity of something, how could you have come to this flying disaster! The more Dajin thought about it, the more angry he became, this unconscious daughter-in-law was a scourge.
"That's your mother's greed for money, and she wants to hide from us and subsidize the third room. Otherwise, why did she just ask Xie to follow him into the county seat? Zhou was open-mouthed and said the words of random suspicion.
"Dare to say that, mother, I think you owe a beating! …… Oops! Du Dajin scolded Zhou for being on the rise, and he was about to hit when he raised his hand, but he didn't expect to involve the wound on his buttocks.
Zhou was about to raise his wrist to cover his face, but he didn't expect Dajin to scream at his mother, and she muttered: "It hurts you to death, you deserve it!" ”。
"Daddy, don't make any noise, come on, Du Zhu has cramps!" Du Shu screamed, startling Zhou.
"My son!" Zhou ran to Du Zhu's bed with a brisk walk.
She reached out and touched it, Du Zhu's forehead was frighteningly hot, and her whole body twitched involuntarily.
"Boy, what's wrong with you!" Zhou hurriedly pinched Du Zhu's middle tiger's mouth. In the middle of the night, with a bang, Du Zhu woke up slowly.
As soon as Du Zhu opened his eyes, his eyes were red, and he scared the panicked Zhou so much that his soul almost flew.
"Why are you uncomfortable?" Zhou asked steadily.
"My feet hurt, my whole body hurts." Du Zhu's voice was hoarse.
Zhou lifted the quilt and saw that Du Zhu's big toe was red, swollen and purple, and it was obviously bulging pus. Last night, Zhou picked up reeds for Du Zhu, which is a very common and very small thing in the countryside, but I didn't expect Du Zhu to have such a powerful attack.
"Dr. Zhong is really a miracle doctor, he can see it at a glance through the quilt!" Du Xuan exclaimed.
Zhou regretted it in his heart, he had known that he would have let Zhong Yu take a look. blames himself for being afraid of spending money, what are you afraid of now, Du Zhu is like this, he has to invite Zhong Yu again.
Du Zhu and Du Zhu laboriously put the ox cart on, and Du Zhu ran to the hospital again.
Zhong Yu had already fallen asleep, and the young man who was keeping vigil in front of him would not let Du Xuan enter, and Du Xuan was in a hurry, and his voice was high. Zhong Yu, who lived alone, had a light sleep and was woken up.
Both medical virtue and benevolence had to make Zhong Yu dress up again, and went out with the medicine box, and the young man hurriedly and thoughtfully handed him a fur coat wrapped.
Entering the house, when he saw Du Zhu's toes, Zhong Yu's eyebrows frowned slightly: "This ...... is very serious." ”
