Chapter 112: Broken Leg
Zhou Kuiruo has the heart to study at home with peace of mind, but there are always some things that can't be pushed off come to the door.
It's already November, and the New Year is still a month away. Chun Tao is very lucky, in the past life, in this life, he lived in the south, and he didn't have to face the depressed winter, and of course he couldn't appreciate the snow in winter.
Lamei and Chun Tao lived together, and in March they became frequent visitors to the Zhou family. Since Chun Tao clarified the misunderstanding caused by Zhou Kuiruo with Aunt Zhou, she has recovered her previous sanity and is no longer extravagant.
"What are you doing here? I'm not tired! "March arrived at Zhou's house on time after lunch.
"Cut some red paper, clean the house, and paste the couplet, so that it can look like the New Year!" It was Lamei who replied.
"I'm tired, but Lamei said that the couplet must be posted, and my mother agreed." Chun Tao seemed to be complaining and talking to herself, her voice was very small, and the two only knew that she was talking, and they couldn't hear the content clearly.
March was attracted by the couplet, sat next to Lamei, and watched her meticulously cut the red paper, very carefully.
It's not for me. March was very self-aware and didn't move, just watched from the sidelines. "Lamei, you cut one more copy, and I didn't write my couplet!"
"You came in time, you didn't come yesterday the day before yesterday, but you came today." Chun Tao said without being salty, obviously teasing her.
"I just came in time, how?" March Chong Chun Tao grimaced, "The day before yesterday, I went up the mountain and found animal footprints and set traps on the mountain, if you catch it, don't eat it." ”
"It's so cold, why do you still run up the mountain, and you're not afraid of freezing." While Lamei carefully cut paper, she did not forget to care about March.
"It's okay, I'm in good health, it's out of the way."
"If you catch it, you don't have to take it here, they are small in September, so they need to eat more."
After Chun Tao finished speaking, Lamei immediately nodded yes. "Yes! If you caught it so hard, you better eat more by yourself and don't keep sending it here. ”
Lamei came to live in Chuntao, I don't know if March felt that she couldn't help or what, all the prey that caught a small point was sent to Zhou's house.
"It's okay, if you feel guilty, write me a couplet!"
"Okay, I'll let Chun Tao write it to you later."
"Spring peach writes? Don't, I want Brother Zhou to write it, so I don't want her to write it! ”
"What's wrong with what I wrote?" Chun Tao looked at March dissatisfiedly and asked her to give an explanation.
"Brother Zhou wrote a lot of couplets, and he definitely couldn't write them wrong. You just learned words from Brother Zhou for a few days, I don't believe you. The couplet is used for the New Year, and it is not allowed to be sloppy. ”
March suddenly said a few well-founded reasons for refusal, and Chun Tao and Lamei were stunned. "I didn't expect you to be able to say it."
March raised her chin with a look of contempt, very underwhelming. "Of course."
"What about Brother Zhou? In the study? March looked at the yard and asked Chun Tao.
"Hmmm! In the study, I'll call him, you wait. "The Zhou family has no relatives, and when the Chinese New Year is busy, the Zhou family seems to be very idle. Chun Tao can not care about other people, but the March family can't.
Chun Tao walked into the study and explained her intention to Zhou Kuiruo.
"Do you buy a lot of red paper? I thought about sending a couplet to Brother Li, Shopkeeper Qi and Brother Wang to express their hearts. However, the shopkeeper Qi has to add more. "Zhou Kuiruo is a normal person and knows the importance of courtesy.
Chun Tao and Zhou Kuiruo walked side by side, replying to his words. "I bought a lot, and Lamei was worried about cutting it."
Lamei and Chun Tao cut out the red paper and gave it to Zhou Kuiruo to use. March can only help with the hand, helping to dry after he has written.
"It's no wonder that there are always people who go to the street to find people who read books to write couplets, and the writing is really beautiful. However, Brother Zhou wrote the best I have ever seen. "March actually admired it.
March's words made the other three people in the hall laugh. Chun Tao smiled slightly and said to March, "You pick first!" See which one you think is the best-looking. ”
"Then you're welcome." March looked around carefully, nodded for a while and shook his head for a while, choosing very seriously.
After the selection in March, I followed Lamei to chat. Chun Tao followed Zhou Kuiruo to package the rest of the couplets and the word "Fu", making it look less shabby.
"I'll go alone tomorrow, and you'll stay at home. Is there anything I need to bring? ”
"Buy some snacks! In the first month of the month, they will definitely come to visit in September. ”
"Good! My mother also loves to eat, so I'll buy more. "The person who can keep Chun Tao in mind, Zhou Kuiruo will naturally remember it.
On the second day, Zhou Kuiruo set off after resting for a while with breakfast. Zhou Kuiruo walked a cup of tea, and the door of the Zhou family was violently knocked on. "Spring peach, spring peach!"
"It's March." March's hoarse cry frightened the three women in the house, and Chun Tao ran away, and as soon as she opened the door, March grabbed her.
"Spring Peach, quick! Help me, help me. Hurry up! March shook Chun Tao desperately, crying while panting, Chun Tao hurriedly gave her a good breath, afraid that she would turn her back in the next second.
"What's wrong?" Lamei, who caught up later, asked anxiously when she saw March crying and choking.
March came crying, stopped abruptly, and probably got angry. I can't even get angry, let alone speak. "Something's wrong? Looking for my help? Is it? ”
March took a breath in his throat and nodded desperately. Chun Tao then asked, "Do you want someone to help?" ”
When Chun Tao asked, Aunt Zhou also came out and watched anxiously from a distance. March cried and shook her head vigorously, and Chun Tao asked again: "Want money?" ”
March nodded immediately, and the tears fell even harder. "I'll go get the money, don't cry, tell me what happened on the way."
Chun Tao's voice is very cold and fierce, not at all the light and calm she is on weekdays. But such a spring peach made March find a sense of reassurance, and as soon as she left, she squatted on the ground and cried. Lamei squatted down next to March and comforted her softly.
"Chun Tao, do you have enough money there, not enough mother, and there are still some here." After Aunt Zhou quickly returned to the room, she took out her private money and handed it to Chun Tao who returned to the front yard.
Chun Tao was holding a dirt-stained jar in her arms, which contained the Zhou family's food expenses for the whole winter. She took the purse handed by Aunt Zhou, "Mother, thank you!" ”
"What do you say! Go for it! Chun Tao hugged the jar, and her hand tightly dragged the purse to the front of March, who was still crying.
"Get up and go."
Tears were still in the flow, but March was already able to speak. "Good!"
"I'll go too!" Lamei was not at ease and wanted to follow.
"There are a lot of people, and it's inconvenient for you to go. You accompany your mother, don't worry. After saying that, Chun Tao stuffed the purse in her hand into March's arms and dragged her away.
Before Lamei could say a word, the two ran away, and could only look at their anxious backs worriedly.
"Who's in trouble? What's wrong? While running, Chun Tao asked about the specific situation in March, she lived a few more years, and with this benefit, she experienced life and death, and she was relatively calm in case of trouble.
"My father, he... He had a broken leg. With a crying voice, March held back for a long time before he spoke.
"How long? Did you call a doctor? ”
"Just moved back, my mother went... I'm going to find Dr. Zhang. ”
"Dr. Zhang? No, go to the county seat. "Looking at the appearance of March crying, and March Niang panicked to find Dr. Zhang, a doctor who is not very good at medical skills, March Dad was not lightly injured.
"No! My dad hurts when he moves. ”
"Dr. Zhang's medical skills are not good, do you want your father to be bad in the future?"
"That's... That... I do not know. ”
The conversation between the two came to an abrupt end, and the March family was already in the sight of the two. The two stopped talking, sped up, and March dragged Chun Tao into the small courtyard full of villagers.
