Chapter 63: Malaria Outbreak
Because of Wang Cuiying's harmful plan, Liang Xiaobei's original happy mood disappeared.
Liang Xiaonan said: "What are you worried about? It's a big deal that tomorrow my sister will go to the city and look for Wang Youyang, he supports me to engage in silkworm breeding, I am a common man who takes the lead in agricultural production, where will they treat me as a bad person? Besides, our song stands up to scrutiny. ”
"Sister, these things can't be explained."
"How can it not be clear? Don't be afraid. In a hurry, she put some supplies in the space and took her grandmother and Xiaobei to run to the big city.
Mr. Xie gave her more than 3,000 yuan, Zhou Yan gave 2,666 yuan, and she herself saved so much money during this time, so she didn't live too nourishingly.
She's really not afraid.
Back at home, Grandma Liang said happily: "Xiaonan, Zhou Yan sent a basket of lychees, you can taste it, I ate one, it's too sweet, it's delicious." ”
"What about others?"
"I didn't stop, I put down the lychee and left."
These lychees are red, full of grains, very fresh, Liang Xiaonan likes lychees the most, and he didn't eat dinner, he ate more than a dozen of them one after another, and called Grandma Liang and Liang Xiaobei to eat them too.
A large basket could not be eaten at all, so she soaked the rest in the well water.
put two batteries in Zhou Yan's desk lamp for her, turned on the switch, and the whole room was bright.
Grandma Liang said: "This light is so good, it shines as if it is in the daytime, you can turn it off after a while, it costs electricity." ”
"Grandma, I bought things to use, my eyes are broken, what are you doing with the money?" Liang Xiaonan settled the accounts under the lamp, how much labor fees should the Xiao family get during this time.
Looking at the fish pond, digging potatoes, sending potatoes, sending fish, and planting potatoes, the Xiao family helped a lot, and according to the original salary, 63 yuan should be given.
Liang Xiaonan counted out 63 yuan, took out one of the two packets of sugar brought by Wang Heming, took a few apples and oranges, and went to Xiao Hongyu's house.
The Xiao family hadn't finished dinner yet, and when Liang Xiaonan came over, Zhao hurriedly pulled a small chair for her to sit down, and told Xiao Hongyu to take a pu fan to fan her, there were too many mosquitoes at night, and when she ate in the yard, her legs and bodies were slapped.
Liang Xiaonan said: "Auntie, I will settle the account with you for this period of time, you can see if there is any leakage, if it is missed, you must tell me." ”
She counted the account details to them, and the Xiao family was polite, but in fact, her ears were pricked up, and her heart was clear.
They found that Liang Xiaonan not only didn't count a penny, but also dug potatoes and counted them at 1 yuan a day, Zhao and Xiao Tiezhu were very embarrassed.
"Digging potatoes is counted in the delivery, otherwise it will cost 1 yuan for a trip, how can it be so easy to earn? You can't ask for money for digging potatoes! Xiao Tiezhu said.
Liang Xiaonan said that it must be given, and as long as he works, he must be paid.
She made up her mind, the money must be given to the Xiao family, and if the Xiao family is doing well, no one will think about exchanging Xiao Hongyu for relatives.
After sitting at Xiao's house for a while, he got up and said goodbye.
Zhao and Xiao Hongyu sent her home in one go, so excited that she spoke, and her voice didn't want to be lowered, how happy she was, after working for a month, Liang Xiaonan gave 63 yuan and gave a gift.
Early the next morning, Xiao Hongyu came to Liang's house, gave a basket full of tender corn, and hugged a long pumpkin.
Grandma Liang said: "The corn is so tender, you broke it?" What a pity. ”
"It's a pity, my mother said to give you a taste."
Liang Xiaonan They only have one acre of land, except for a fish pond, which is a few pieces of potatoes, there is no other food, and they have to find another way to eat.
Xiao Hongyu put down her things and left in a hurry, they have a lot of family and a lot of work, so they have to go back to do it quickly.
Liang Xiaonan said to Grandma Liang: "I saw a mulberry tree on the mountain yesterday that bears a lot of mulberries, and today it should be purple, I have to go quickly, don't be pecked by birds." ”
Grandma Liang said, "Shall I go with you to pick it?" ”
Liang Xiaonan thought that the road was okay, and the little mulberry sapling over there had to be seen by the old lady, otherwise she would think that she was always changing things with her bare hands.
"Okay, I'll carry the basket on my back and go together."
Liang Xiaobei went to the fish pond early, and she took Grandma Liang up the mountain.
Grandma Liang's feet are small, and she also straddles a basket, the two of them walked very slowly, and walked for almost two hours before they reached the pond, Liang Xiaonan said that he would never take Grandma Liang up the mountain again in the future, it was a waste of time.
Grandma Liang saw hundreds of mulberry trees by the pond, and she was excited and worried: "Xiaonan, if this is seen by the villagers, the leaves will have to be wiped out for you." ”
"So I want to transplant these trees and the seedlings below to the fields of Zhouyan."
Liang Xiaonan led Grandma Liang to the mulberry tree full of mulberries, and sure enough, the mulberries on the tree were ripe, dense, black and purple, smaller than she had seen in her previous life, but the flesh was fresher and firmer.
Grandma Liang's hands trembled with excitement, and she kept saying, "So much, my God, so much, how can you get so married?" ”
"Grandma, you can eat some, it's a lot anyway."
Grandma Liang was reluctant to eat, so she picked and sold it for money and went to relatives.
"What kind of relatives are going, eat!" Liang Xiaonan picked it and stuffed it in her mouth, "Taste it, it's sweet and sour, how delicious." ”
This mulberry was nourished by her spiritual spring liquid, and it was by no means comparable to those mulberries on the street.
Grandma Liang ate it and squinted her eyes happily: "It's so sweet and delicious." ”
Mulberry saplings actually didn't intend to bear fruit, just thinking about making leaf mulberry and growing leaves to raise silkworms, so these saplings grow fast, but the crown is not particularly large, and the mulberries are only half a basket, plus a basket.
Grandma Liang said: "Ask Xiaobei to send a basket to the Yang family, and I will go to the town to sell the rest." ”
"Grandma, if you want to sell mulberries, you can go yourself, I won't go."
"You definitely can't go, how can you be a girl selling things on the street?" Grandma Liang said, "I'll go, I'm idle at home anyway." ”
She doesn't need to raise fish and potatoes, she wants to make shoes for Liang Xiaonan and Liang Xiaobei, her eyes are dazzling, she can't see the needle and thread clearly, and she goes to the street to sell mulberries, this kind of light work, she can do it.
Because Grandma Liang followed, she didn't go to see the ginseng seedlings. After picking mulberries with Grandma Liang, he went down the mountain, went to the fish pond first, left some for Liang Xiaobei, and told him to send the basket of mulberries to Nanfeng Town.
Da Niu was pulling the last cart of potatoes, Xiao Hongyu helped him load it, saw Liang Xiaonan, and said: "The two are swinging, it's cold like falling into an ice cellar for a while, and it's hot like being in a furnace for a while, it's been a few days, and people are dying." ”
Grandma Liang was taken aback: "Have you seen a doctor?" ”
"Look, myrrh! In the town's health center, there are hundreds of people watching the swings every day, and there is nowhere to stand, the medicine is gone, and it is estimated that many people will die this year. ”
"So many swingers?" Liang Xiaonan knows more or less that the scientific name of this disease is malaria, but she has never seen anyone suffer from this disease, and it seems that this disease has disappeared in China in her previous life.
"Yes, I heard that the county hospital is crowded with people who are fighting for the pendulum, and it is said that it is a concentrated outbreak. I can't get any medicine, and no hospital has any medicine! There are swings every year, who would have thought that there would be a big explosion this year! ”
