05020101010101 courtyard door opened, and a middle-aged couple walked out of it.

They wore very simple cloth clothes and trousers, which did not resemble the costumes of our Han people. It's kind of like a minority.

The male host's name is Yan Wugu, a very strange name, his face is dark and swarthy, and his facial features are very upright. The body is thin, but it feels very energetic.

The hostess's surname is also very unique, the surname is Na, the name is Nahedo, her long black hair is coiled into a beautiful bun, her ears are hung with silver earrings the size of a cup, and she wears a beautiful silver necklace around her neck, and she is graceful. It is very charming, and it exudes a wild beauty unique to a mountain village woman. Presumably when she was young, she must have been an enviable beauty.

Huzi stepped forward to explain his intentions. Knowing that it was Geng Sanye's grandson, the Yan couple warmly welcomed us into the stilted building.

The house was bright. There is a smell of herbs.

Looking around, I found a lot of Chinese herbs in the wooden cabinet against the wall, and I looked out the window into the backyard, and in the courtyard of the backyard was a dustpan, which was full of all kinds of herbs to dry, and I couldn't name them. It seems that this Yan family actually seems to have opened a medical hall.

Sure enough, I listened to the male owner Yan Wugu introduce himself: "We have lived in this sunset village for generations, and our husband and wife are responsible for treating the people in the village, so there are so many herbs in the house!" "

"Sunset Village? What a strange name! Huzi said.

"Yes!" The hostess Naheduo brought a plate of fruits and vegetables and said, "Whenever the sun sets, it sinks from this side of the village, so it is called Sunset Village!" "

The sun was setting, and a touch of residual red slanted into the window lattice, and sure enough, I saw the fiery red sunset slowly sinking from above the village.

As night slowly rises, there is silence, and the occasional birdsong from the cliff adds to the sense of tranquility.

The Yan couple enthusiastically arranged a table of meals, all of which were characteristic country game, and set up a large table with a variety of dishes.

We slept in the open for two days, and the sumptuous dishes made our mouths water.

There are air-dried shredded beef, charcoal-grilled hares, braised pheasants, and fish soup stewed with wild vegetables.

Yan Wugu took out a wine jar, uncovered the mud seal, stretched a spoon made of bamboo into the jar, and scooped out a tube of clear wine. The wine is clean and translucent, without any impurities or pungent wine smell, but exudes a faint fragrance.

Yan Wugu served a bowl to Huzi: "This is my own brewed sake, blended with thirty-two flavors of Chinese herbs, to invigorate blood and replenish qi, and to strengthen the foundation and cultivate yuan!" "

Huzi is a wine worm, picked up the blue and white porcelain bowl, took a big sip with his neck up, wiped the water stains on his beard and exclaimed: "Cool! Wine! What a wine! "

"Uncle! Give me a whole bowl! I handed the porcelain bowl to Yan Wugu.

Yan Wugu glanced at me, slightly stunned, and then laughed and said, "Good spirit, uncle likes it!" "

Yan Wugu poured me a bowl full of sake, then poured a bowl himself, held the porcelain bowl with both hands, and said loudly: "Come!" This first bowl of wine, toast the third master! The third master loved to drink the sake I brewed the most, and the highest record was that one person drank three catties at a time! It's a pity that he can't drink anymore! "

Speaking of this, Yan Wugu's eyes turned red, and he picked up the porcelain bowl and drank all the sake in the bowl.

Yan Wugu put down the porcelain bowl heavily, and turned his head to look at me: "Xiao Qi, you are the grandson of the third master, that is, my child, coming to me is like returning to your own home, the kindness of the third master is unforgettable for our Yan family, and my uncle will definitely take good care of you when you grow up!" "

I nodded and didn't speak, Yan Wugu's words still warmed my heart and eliminated the strangeness in my heart.

Since my grandfather can rest assured that he can entrust me to the Yan couple, it shows that he has enough trust in the Yan family. There is no doubt that the Gans must be kind and good people.

I drank sip after sip and for some reason, I'm now a little obsessed with the taste of alcohol.

Sixi glanced at me and didn't speak.

After three rounds of drinking, Huzi asked Yan Wugu: "Brother Yan, how did you and the third master meet?" "

Yan Wugu put down his chopsticks and smiled embarrassedly: "There is still a story about this, let my daughter-in-law tell you!" "

Na Heduo nodded: "Third Master Geng is the life-saving benefactor of our couple!" No! To be exact, it should be the lifesaver of our family! "

"Oh, you might as well tell me about it!" Huzi also put down his chopsticks.

Go back twelve years.

At that time, Naheduo had just become pregnant.

The pregnancy period is October, and it is normal to have a qiē.

Giving birth to a child in the countryside is not as particular as that of people in the city, and it is not so complicated, and having a child is just an ordinary and trivial matter for the countryman. Because of the limited medical conditions, it is usually in your own home, and you have to ask a midwife to deliver the baby.

Although Yan Wugu is a barefoot doctor, he is not very good at midwifery, and the people in the village are particular, the wife gives birth to a child, and the husband cannot deliver the baby in person, otherwise he will be unlucky.

Midwife is a sacred profession, there is also a midwife in Sunset Village, she began to help people deliver babies at the age of 20, until the age of 60, the babies delivered by her hands are not thousands but also hundreds, the experience of midwifery can be said to be very rich, more than the professional doctors in regular hospitals. Her surname is Long, so the people in the village affectionately call her Longpo.

Long Po has delivered countless births and benefited thousands of families, but she has never been married, and she has no children and no daughters.

Long Po said that since she chose the profession of midwife, she was ready to not marry for the rest of her life. Because according to the more superstitious saying, the midwife must be a pure yin body, in order to deliver the baby, Long Po gave up the happiness of her life, and this spirit made all the villagers admire her.

Naheduo was in the middle of the pen, and Yan Wugu invited Long Po to deliver the baby.

The Yan family has been practicing medicine in Sunset Village for generations, and they are also very respectable families, so Long Po did not dare to slack off, and was busy and carefully prepared.

The day before the due date, Long Po came to Yan's house early to make preparations.

Long Po went in to check Na Heduo's physical condition, and Yan Wugu stayed outside the bedroom, nervous and excited, pacing back and forth.

A minute passed.

Half an hour passed.

More than an hour passed. Joy pounces.

Why hasn't Long Po come out yet?

Yan Wugu couldn't wait a little, and stretched out his hand to knock on the door.

At this moment, the door creaked open, and Long Po walked out of the bedroom, with a somewhat complicated expression on her face.

"Long Po, how is my daughter-in-law?" Yan Wugu couldn't wait to ask, he saw that Long Po's face was not quite right, and he couldn't help but feel a little worried in his heart.

Long Po snorted and did not speak.

"Long Po, what the hell is going on? Bother me to let me know! Yan Wugu was a little anxious.

Long Po quietly pulled Yan Wugu to the corner of the house and told Yan Wugu an extremely shocking secret: "When I just checked for your daughter-in-law, I didn't even notice the pulse of the fetus in my womb."

Yan Wugu trembled: "What do you mean?" "

Long Po said: "You are a doctor, you should also know it very well!" Based on so many years of experience in delivering babies, I suspect that your daughter-in-law is carrying a stillborn baby in her belly! "

Stillbirth?!

A thunderclap exploded in Yan Wugu's ears, Yan Wugu was extremely surprised, how could it be a stillborn baby in her daughter-in-law's belly? The couple looked forward to it day and night, and finally looked forward to ten moons, how could it be that when they were about to give birth, they became stillborn?

No way!

That's impossible!

Yan Wugu shook his head again and again, his mind was blank.

"It's the first time I've encountered this strange phenomenon! If you are not at ease, you can take your daughter-in-law to a regular hospital for a check-up! After saying that, Long Po left.

Yan Wugu's joy of being a father came to naught at this moment, Long Po has delivered babies for decades, and what she said must be right. However, Yan Wugu couldn't figure it out, why did her daughter-in-law get pregnant with a stillborn child, who was obviously so good? Could it be that God wants to make the Yan family extinct?

Yan Wugu was unwilling, and he had to figure out the reason for everything.

Yan Wugu took all his savings and took his daughter-in-law Naheduo out of the mountain overnight, ready to go to the county hospital to have a look.

But in the middle of the night, where is the boat to go to the county seat?

When Yan Wugu was in a hurry, he found that a small boat with a black canopy passed by.

"Hey! Boatman! Come on! Stop the boat! Ay! Please, give us a ride! Yan Wugu stood by the river, shouting anxiously, waving his hands desperately.

The boat docked, and the one holding the boat was a bright-eyed old man: "It's the middle of the night, and your daughter-in-law has a big belly, where is she in a hurry?" "

"We're going to Wushan County!" Yan Wugu thanked him and helped his daughter-in-law onto the boat.

"Can't you go back tomorrow morning?" Lao Sue asked.

"It's too late! My daughter-in-law is about to give birth! I took her to the county hospital for a detailed examination! Yan Wugu said.

Lao Suo glanced at Naheduo and slowly propped up the penny.

"Thank you for your help, I don't know your name?" Yan Wugu asked politely.

Lao Su stroked his beard: "My surname is Geng, everyone calls me the third master!" "

The sky was twilight, and the boat docked at the county wharf.

Yan Wugu took out a little savings to pay for Geng Sanye's journey, but Geng Sanye refused.

"It's just a stopper, don't be so polite! Your daughter-in-law is about to give birth, and there will be many places to use the money in the future, so you should keep the money for yourself! Geng Sanye stuffed the money back into Yan Wugu's hand.

Yan Wugu was very moved, thanked Geng Sanye for his kindness, and then helped his daughter-in-law to the hospital.

Yan Wugu hung up the first number of the day to his daughter-in-law and invited the most authoritative expert from the county hospital to conduct an examination.

The results of the examination almost collapsed the Yan couple, and when the results of the hospital came out, it was exactly the same as what Long Po said, the baby in Heduo's belly was stillborn!
