Chapter 341: Two little ghosts
In the blink of an eye, the two little ones will be almost two years old in a few months. The words are already very clear, and the father and the little father scream all day long, which makes Liu Fan and An Xianli very happy. It's similar to when I was born, the eldest is more calm, the second is more lively, and often pulls his brother around, but the two of them don't run very neatly, sometimes they fall together, they don't cry, they pat each other with the dirt on their bodies, and continue to play.
This also made Liu Fan and An Xianli feel a lot more at ease, after all, neither of them is very good at coaxing children, and the two children will not make trouble for them to see.
This year's autumn came early, and after a few rains, the weather cooled down. Liu Fan said to An Xian and prepared to go out to prepare medicine.
This time, I went out to buy medicine for two small things. When they are three years old, Liu Fan will start to adjust their body quality, so that they can not invade all kinds of poisons.
Naturally, the sooner this is done, the better, and the child's body is more suitable for quickly adapting to the properties of the medicine. In order to reduce the pain of the children after taking the medicine, Liu Fan decided to personally select or pick fresh herbs, and then come back to dry them himself, striving to preserve the medicinal properties to the greatest extent.
Liu Fan went out far away, and An Xianli insisted on following. Liu Fan really couldn't say a "no", so he nodded in agreement.
Although I am worried about the child, I am more worried about this person who is going to go far away, so I can only rest assured if I follow him.
After packing their luggage, the two of them were about to leave after breakfast. But as soon as he walked out of the courtyard gate, he was jumped over by two small things, one for each person, hugging the legs of the two tightly, and shouting "Daddy, little daddy, don't go, don't go".
Looking at these two little things that suddenly appeared, Liu Fan reached out and wanted to pick them up, but the two children hugged the legs of the two of them, but they didn't let go, Liu Fan didn't dare to push too hard, so he had to look at An Xianli helplessly.
"Don't go, stay with us." The elder brother looked serious, his brows furrowed, and he looked at Gu Yao with bright eyes. The two children were precocious, and now they can speak very clearly.
The younger brother on one side also said: "Little daddy, brother and I are good, don't go, don't go." His eyes were misty, and it seemed that if the two of them did not agree, he would cry.
Seeing the child sticking to himself like this, An Xianli was very happy, but this time he really couldn't help but go, in Liu Fan's judgment, this year's weather and soil are very important, and the quality of the harvested herbs will also be very good, it is rare that everything is suitable, it is a pity not to get the medicine back.
Liu Fan squatted down and wrapped his arms around the second child who was holding his legs, and asked softly, "Who told you that Daddy was leaving?" ”
The two buns glanced at each other, and the elder brother said, "We listened to what Ziyan said and said that you are leaving." ”
Ziyan is Liu Fan's apprentice, and now she has become a nanny for two children.
An Xianli touched the little heads of the two children, sometimes the children are too obedient and easy to make the elders very helpless, thought about it, and said: "Daddy went out to buy medicine, and he will come back in a few days." ”
"Buying medicine? Are the dads sick? ”
"No, it's for you." An Xianli patiently explained: "It's to make you less sick in the future, so I want to buy some medicinal herbs and come back for you to drink." ”
The two children don't quite understand why they should take medicine when they are not sick, but as long as Daddy and Little Daddy don't come back.
He pouted and asked seriously, "When will Daddy and Little Daddy come back?" ”
"A month." Liu Fan said without hesitation, he wouldn't lie to them, so he said that he would definitely come back in a month.
"How long is a month?" The two children looked up and asked.
"A month is thirty days." Liu Fan said.
They still know how long the day is, so they nodded, and the elder brother took down the small purse hanging on his waist, put it in An Xianli's hand, and said, "This, accompany the little daddy." ”
The younger brother also gave his purse to Liu Fan. Usually, the two children's purses are filled with candy or snacks that are suitable for them to eat now.
Every morning, Ziyan will put what the children can eat today into the small purses of the two of them, so that they can eat at any time when they want to eat, and they will not add it after eating, and if they are left, they will take it away at night and will not be left until the next day. This is also so that they don't have a greedy appetite for food, after all, the child's stomach is very delicate, and it is impossible to eat too much, nor can it be eaten indiscriminately.
After appeasing the two children, An Xianli and Liu Fan got into the carriage, Ziyan also came out to see them off, an adult with two children, watched the carriage leave, and did not return to the courtyard until there was no shadow.
Although he went out this time to buy medicine, because he brought An Xianli with him, Liu Fan slowed down and prepared to take him to visit the towns he hadn't visited yet.
An Xianli ate all the snacks and famous dishes, fortunately, he is not a person who will gain weight, otherwise he really has to worry that his two sons will not recognize him when he goes back.
"It's going to be cold in two more months, come back this time, if you meet good skins, buy some and go back to make rice for the children." An Xianli leaned in the car, holding tea in his hand, and said.
Liu Fan thought for a while and nodded, "Not far from the place we bought, there is a village that makes a living from hunting, and there are many living animals on that mountain, so there should be good skins." ”
"Okay." An Xianli smiled and said: "You should also make one, the one you made last year, wasn't it scratched when you went up the mountain?" ”
"You're doing a good job, there's no need." Liu Fan's life has always been simple, and he is not afraid of the cold, those big dishes are what An Xianli has to do for him.
"Let's make one, pick a suitable leather and lining, and save yourself the trouble of buying again." An Xianli persuaded.
Liu Fan thought for a while, and finally nodded, "Let's take a look first, if there is a suitable leather, make one." ”
On the morning of the 10th, the two arrived at the village where they bought medicine, called Yaojia Village. The village is not big, there are only a few dozen households, and the reason why it is called Yaojia Village is not because the people in the village are surnamed Yao, but because the people here live by collecting medicine most of the time in addition to growing some food for themselves. The mountain medicine behind the village is abundant and of good quality, which can be regarded as a high-quality medicine.
The reason why Liu Fan chose this place, in addition to the good medicine, is also because there is a New Year's friend he met a few years ago, and he is also the oldest medicine picker in the village, and the people in the village call him the medicine master.
Although the old man no longer collects medicine, his children and grandchildren have inherited his career and continue to collect medicine. Although the quality is not as good as the old man's selection, he is also the next generation of people in the village who are the best at collecting medicine.
The carriage ran slowly along the country road, and there were not many people in the village, except for a few women who were busy with the farms in the fields, and it seemed that it was harvest time.
An Xian drove away from the curtain and looked at the unique scenery of the farmhouse outside.
Seeing the nature of what he was seeing, Liu Fan asked, "Like it here?" ”
"Hmm." An Xianli nodded, and suddenly said: "When we are old, we will also find a place in the countryside, plant a piece of land, and raise some flowers and plants to support the elderly." ”
Liu Fan smiled lightly: "With you, I am willing to go wherever I want." It's just that the two children still have to go to school. And I don't want to close my clinic for a while. ”
An Xianli smiled: "Then wait a few more years." ”
Liu Fan said with a smile: "If you want to plant something, just in the medical hall, remove those flowers and plants, cultivate the soil, and plant some simple things." If you want to play in the countryside like this, when the weather is suitable, I will take you around. ”
An Xianli looked at him with a smile, and said very consciously: "You appease those two little things first, and then let's mention the matter of planting medicine." ”
Liu Fan smiled a little helplessly, these two little guys are indeed not fuel-efficient lamps, it is estimated that the front feet of these flowers and plants are going down, and the back feet will be pulled out and thrown everywhere.
After all, this village is in the medicinal herb business, so if there are outsiders, no one will be curious, and at most they will think about who will make the money this time. The carriage ran half the village, in front of a small courtyard. Liu Fan got out of the car first, handed over a key to the driver, and then carefully helped An Xianli down.
"This is ......" looked at the dusty courtyard in front of him, with red brick walls on all sides and a red gate, which looked very different from ordinary farmhouses.
Generally speaking, the courtyard walls of farmhouse yards are mostly made of stone, and some families even use only a fence made of bamboo or wood to use it as a courtyard.
The people in the countryside are simple, and they are all familiar with each other and take care of each other, so they are not afraid of thieves.
"I used to stay here for a month every year to collect some of the herbs they had already dried. Although there are old acquaintances here, it is always inconvenient to live in other people's homes, and some of my prescriptions are not passed on. So a small courtyard was built under this lower corner. It's also convenient. The door had been opened, and Liu Fan led An Xianli and walked in.
This is a small courtyard with two entrances, which is not too big and not very exquisite. After all, it's just a place for Liu Fan to stay, and there is no need to be too luxurious.
For a long time, no one lived, and the floor in the house was dusty, but fortunately, Gu Yao was smart, and when he left, the furniture and beds were covered with cloth, and if he wanted to live, he could remove the cloth and clean the ground again. When you leave, cover it with a clean cloth and come back next time.
The small courtyard is relatively close to the mountain, and although it also belongs to Yaojia Village, it is somewhat alienated from the rest from the division of the house. It's also very quiet because there are not many people passing by.
"This place is a good choice, why haven't I heard you talk about it?" An Xianli looked at the small courtyard, they didn't bring anyone, so they just cleaned up this matter, and he and Liu Fan also had to get started.
"After all, I'm not from Yaojia Village, and I rarely talk to people, so if I live far away, I don't talk about others." Liu Fan said.
An Xianli nodded suddenly, and the two and the coachman quickly cleaned up the courtyard.
Liu Fan went out to collect medicine during the day, while An Xianli wandered around the village and the nearby mountains.
Ten days passed in a flash, and embarked on the way back, thinking that there were still two little ones waiting for them at home, An Xianli couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly.
End of the fan.
