Chapter 85: A Turning Point
Back in the village, it was already dark and the guide brother and the porter uncle were going home, Liang Feng was just about to pay money to the two who had worked hard, Li Qi first gave the money according to the price that Lele had originally negotiated, and gave a lot more to the simple two people who originally wanted to find money, Lele said:
"The white-haired uncle gave you money, you can take it, and if you have more, you can buy some school supplies for the children in the family. Don't be polite to him, go home quickly" The two were very moved, and said thank you again before leaving.
"Uncle still remembers what Lele said?" Lele turned around and asked Li Qi with a smile.
"Yes, didn't you say that I could go with you, but I will pay for the expenses of the trip" Li Qi also returned happily.
The driver's uncle arranged accommodation for everyone, because there were only five of them, and they were still three children and two adults. So the driver's uncle found them a family with more houses and lived in the same house together.
They put their things in the room and went to wash up, and the host had already brought them dinner to the table, and the welcoming host had prepared a delicious glutinous rice wine for them.
When Lele saw glutinous rice wine during the meal, her eyes lit up, and then the main family saw that among the five guests, the little girl drank as if she was drinking cold, and there was nothing to do, but the two adults only drank one bowl and didn't dare to drink it again
The owner of this house is still quite rich, the house is big, and the women in the family have a lot of silverware, and their family has no daughters, only two teenage children, is it for the daughter-in-law? Lele asked curiously:
"Uncle, your family has made a lot of silverware, is it for your daughter-in-law?"
"Huh...... Little Sister asked what this is for? The uncle asked happily.
"I heard that people who have daughters will prepare these things for their daughters from an early age, but aren't you the only ones in your family? Do boys wear that much silverware too? Lele asked, and the silverware she saw was the kind used by girls?
"You're right, uncle is making it for someone else's daughter. Do you want to do a few things too? ”
"Uncle's craftsmanship is so good, of course I want it, but we don't have silver? Can my uncle sell me the silver jewelry? Lele knows that the silver in this village should be pure silver now, and there will be a lot of fake silverware sold when there are more tourists in the future.
In her previous life, Lele liked silver as jewelry, and although gold has been appreciating, she doesn't like it very much. Now that she suddenly saw so many silver jewelry, it was no wonder that she didn't like it, so she thought: if her uncle sells it, she will buy a pair of silver bracelets for her mother and sisters. Mom also likes silver jewelry, she has always said that it can drive away evil spirits, and it is also good for the human body.
"Seeing that little sister likes it, I can sell you some of my own silver jewelry, these are all used by others to help me make them." The uncle said that he asked the aunt to take out his own silver jewelry. Uncle also saw just now that these people don't have any bad intentions, otherwise he would have put away the half-built silver jewelry, where would he dare to put it there?
Lele chose almost all the bracelets, earrings, and chains among the silver jewelry that her aunt took out, and then said embarrassedly:
"That, uncle, I really like these silver ornaments of yours, you calculate how much I have taken these in total, and we will give you the money in a while."
The uncle calculated the price of those silver jewelry for Lele, in Lele's opinion, it was already very cheap, but now the silver is also cheap. Li Qi saw that there was only so much money, and he wanted to help Lele out, but Kele said:
"It's a gift I want to buy myself, of course I'll have to pay for it myself."
Then Li Qi knew that Lele's backpack had a lot of inner bags containing so many medicines, and there was a big Ganoderma lucidum cut from the tree because the Ganoderma lucidum grew closer to the roots, they all thought that Lele was digging in the mud, but after Lele came back, when he walked over to look, he found that Lele had just shaved the bark. Then he can dig out a money bag for her
Because the uncle's house has many rooms, they have one room for each person. After last night, Liang Liang and the others also knew how good Lele was sleeping. Fortunately, the uncle's room is large enough and the room is big enough
What Lele thinks is: When tourism is developed in the future, the uncle's family can use these rooms as homestays, which should be able to make a lot of money, right?
Lele remembered that in her previous life, when she came to Damiao Mountain, the guide she invited told her that many ethnic villages are now funded by outsiders to build houses, and then ask the locals to help them make money. At that time, the guide thought that Lele was also a rich man, and tried to persuade her to build a building in their rain garden as well, saying that it would not cost much.
So Lele discussed with his uncle about how much it would cost to build a three-story house like theirs.
"Uncle, if you want to build a house as big as yours, how much will it cost?" Lele asked.
Uncle Says:
"I didn't spend much money on this house, the wood was all our own, and our family helped when it was built, so we didn't spend much money to build the house."
"What if you need to buy wood and hire a craftsman? How much does it cost? ”
Now the firewood is not expensive, the uncle calculated it for Lele, and it really didn't cost much, so she had the idea of building a holiday house in Yubu Miao Village, so that they could come and play when they had time.
Li Qi listened to Lele's words, his eyes were bigger, how old is this child? How did she come up with the idea of building a vacation home? Still building in the mountains? Is she planning to come here often? He doesn't understand Lele's thoughts more and more now, isn't this something that only adults think? How could she think so long-term as a child?
The uncle heard that Lele was going to build such a big house, so he was very enthusiastic to discuss materials and labor with Lele, and finally even talked about the problem of feng shui.
The next day, everyone said goodbye to the uncle's family. Lele said to the driver's uncle
"Uncle, you send us to Yubu Miao Village first, I want to go there and ask, can I build a house in their village."
Uncle Driver said happily:
"Okay, then let's go to the rain first."
Everyone put the luggage in the car first, and then got into the car together, and the driver closed the door, started the car, and left......
When they came to Miao Village, Miao Brother and Miao Mei in the village received them very warmly. Later, when I heard that they were looking for the village chief, someone immediately came and took them to the village chief's house.
The village chief was a very sturdy uncle in his forties, and after Lele told him why he came to him, the uncle did not directly answer yes or no, but sat there pondering, and he didn't know what he thought. Because he kept his head down and didn't say anything.
Seeing the uncle like this, Lele felt that it was better to forget it, why bother, to embarrass the uncle?
Think about it again: they just came to ask, and if they could, they would build it, and if they couldn't, they wouldn't do it, and they didn't have to build a wooden house here. It's a question of whether they can still come, and now she is just having a fever, and if the uncle doesn't agree, they will go back directly. On the way back, she may have regrets, but after a while, maybe she forgets them.
Seeing that the uncle had thought about it for a long time and didn't consider the result, Xiao Hei in Lele's backpack got impatient and got out of the backpack and sat on Lele's shoulder. As soon as Lele stretched out his hand, Xiao Hei jumped into Lele's palm, and Lele was waiting while teasing Xiao Hei. Until Lele also felt really bored, he got up and said to the village chief:
"Uncle, you don't have to think about it, I won't build this house. I thought about it just now, even if I build a house with you, I don't have time to come, it will be a waste. Excuse me" got up and walked out, without waiting for the uncle to answer, he got into the car directly with everyone, and then let the driver uncle drive.
Lele sat in the car, teasing Xiao Hei while thinking: It's fake to say that she doesn't regret it, but when she saw the village chief and uncle looking embarrassed, she felt that she had better forget it. If you really want to get a farm, you might as well get one around the city, so that you can go over often on weekends, and then you can take your grandfather there with you, and you still have to live in the city house. But if she really wants to build a farm, now she has to start trying to find a way to make money, and the little money she has in her hand is not enough to buy some materials
Just when Lele was fascinated, the driver's uncle suddenly came to a sudden brake, which scared Lele a lot, but fortunately she reacted quickly and put her foot on the chair in front of her; If she reacted slowly, she would probably have been knocked on the head, and when she looked up, there was a person in front of her who ran to the middle of the road to stop the car Lele saw the driver uncle get out of the car and what the Miao young man in Miao clothes was talking to, and then saw the young man pointing to the side of the road, and there was a Miao woman lying on the side of the road, I don't know if she was sick or something else. In short, it's not about having a child, because Lele sees that the stomach of the lying person is flat
"Guest, that Miao elder brother and his wife went up the mountain, unfortunately, his wife was bitten by a snake, you see, can you take them a ride and go to the Miao doctor to detoxify her?" The driver's uncle got in the car and asked for their opinion.
"Bitten by a snake? Did he say what kind of snake it was? Lele asked.
"He couldn't tell himself, because the snake ran away as soon as it bit it," said the driver's uncle.
"Oh, I'll go down and have a look." After Lele finished speaking, he got out of the car, came to the woman, and found that the young man did not give her any measures, Lele squatted down and saw that the toxin had been spreading, this snake should be quite venomous, and it can't die for the time being, but even if they get in the car now, when they get to the Miao doctor, the toxin must spread to more parts, and it may not be cured at that time
Just when Lele wanted to scoop up the woman's trouser legs to see where the snake venom had spread, so that she could prescribe the right medicine.
"What are you going to do?" As a result, Lele's hand touched the woman's trouser legs, and she was stopped by the Miao youth.
"If you want her to die sooner, stop me from watching." Lele didn't know why, he didn't have much patience today, he always felt very irritable, and now he was even more unhappy if he was stopped, so he said coldly.
The Miao youth choked in his throat in one breath and let go of Lele's hand.
Lele fished up the trouser hem and thought: Fortunately, the trouser leg is wide enough to find that the toxin has spread to the knee and is trying to spread upward.
"Give me a rope." Lele shouted at the Miao youth, and the Miao youth found that there was no rope, so he handed the belt of his clothes to Lele, Lele took the belt, and tied it to the Miao woman at the root of her thigh, and then took out a detoxification pill from her backpack and fed it to her.
Seeing Lele continue to feel in the bag, he found a blade and a lighter, the fire of the lighter burned the blade, and made a small cut in the place where she was bitten by the snake, put the blade down, and began to squeeze it down from above, this poisonous blood must be squeezed out, otherwise her leg will be wasted
"You come and squeeze, like I just did, squeeze out the poisonous blood first, otherwise her leg will be wasted" Lele stood up after speaking, and the Miao man hurriedly came over to take over, squeezed for a long time, and the blood was still abnormal.
"You give some strength, if you can't squeeze it out, my detoxification pill is useless" Lele knew that this man couldn't bear the pain of his wife, so he didn't make any effort, so he urged loudly.
After a while, the blood squeezed out slowly turned red, Lele also asked him to squeeze it a few more times before he stopped, Lele sprinkled some antidote powder on her wound and the wound medicine together. After all, she had been cut with a blade by herself, and she was afraid of tetanus, so she even sprinkled her with wound medicine. Then untie the belt from her thigh and cover the wound.
When Lele clapped his hands, the woman woke up and the Miao couple, as soon as the wife woke up, she knew that it was Lele who helped him and the two of them wanted to kowtow to Lele, Lele stopped her and said:
"You are much older than me, isn't kowtowing to a child breaking my life? But next time, you have to remember that when you are bitten by a snake, you should tie it with a rope three inches away from the wound to prevent the toxin from spreading...... "After speaking, he also gave them two antidote pills, and asked them to take them again in the evening and tomorrow morning, and then got into the car.
The driver's uncle, who had watched the process on the side, felt that this kid was really good when he got into the car, he asked:
"How can little sister know so much?"
"My grandma is a doctor, she taught me." After Lele finished speaking lightly, he planned to close his eyes and recuperate.
Just as the driver's uncle was about to start the car, a young Miao man on a horse came from behind......
