Early on Saturday morning, Xu Chunliang accompanied his grandfather to the Qingshan mining area by car.

Dongzhou used to be a resource-based city, but after the founding of the People's Republic of China, Dongzhou, known as the "100-mile coal sea", produced a total of 1 billion tons of coal, making an extremely important contribution to the economic development of Pinghai Province. The local industrial structure and people's lives are all based on coal.

However, with the depletion of coal, the once pillar industries have declined, and the chemical, metallurgical and other industries have a heavy structure and overcapacity. Negative problems are constantly emerging, air pollution, land subsidence; The infrastructure is lagging behind, and there are a large number of industrial and mining areas in the city.

Since 1882, Dongzhou has been digging wells and building mines, with more than 250 mines at the maximum, and coal mining depressions and quarrying rock mouths have become ecological scars in Dongzhou.

Like similar resource-depleted cities, Dongzhou has reached the threshold of transformation, and after entering the 21st century, Dongzhou Guozheng has ushered in the rebirth of the city with the development concept.

Qingshan Mining Area has also begun to develop all-for-one tourism according to local conditions, using the landform of the local subsidence area to build Qingshan Lake, and upgrading the landscape on the basis of the subsidence area, and has successfully won the title of AAAA-level scenic spot.

However, there are still many workers in the mining area who have a difficult life, they belong to the bottom of the society, after experiencing the turmoil of layoffs and buyouts, more than half of the workers who make a living from the coal mine have been pushed into the society, and have to face the problem of reemployment, of which only a few have succeeded, and most of them are struggling to make a living on the food and clothing line.

Xu Changshan will go to the Qingshan mining area almost every once in a while, and every time he comes over, he will bring a lot of traditional Chinese medicine to some old patients for free, and today is no exception

In the special era, Xu Changshan was sent here for a period of time to transform, and thus formed a deep friendship with the local people.

Time flies, nearly fifty years have passed unconsciously, many of the friends I knew back then have passed away, Xu Changshan is getting older and older, and he can no longer bring as many traditional Chinese medicines as in the past, but now there is no need for so much.

With the continuous eastward movement of the city, it has also been included in the municipal planning, and after the completion of the Qingshan Lake renovation project, many real estate developers have taken land near this area to develop private houses, and a new round of construction is in full swing.

Xu Changshan looked at the real estate not far away and said, "Houses are being built everywhere, I don't understand, what's the use of building so many houses? The industrial and mining industries are gone, where do the people get their income? If you don't have income, where will you get the money to buy a house?"

Xu Chunliang said with a smile: "This is called industrial upgrading, you can do something else if you don't mine."

Xu Changshan sighed, when the eighties were the most prosperous, both sides of this road were small traders doing business, and there were several restaurants, stretching for more than 200 meters.

The two of them came out early, and before they had time to eat, Xu Changshan proposed to go there to eat.

The old man ordered the local specialty dishes pancakes and horse paste, in fact, this kind of breakfast is also sold in Dongzhou City, but it is still not as authentic as here.

During the meal, an old man who walked in the birds, and when he saw Xu Changshan, the old man hurriedly came over to greet him: "Mr. Xu, you are here!"

The old man's name is Yang Jianguo, and he used to be a local coal miner.

Xu Changshan smiled and said, "Old Yang, how are you doing lately?"

Yang Jianguo nodded again and again: "Since you took the medicine you prescribed to me last time, I haven't had a stomach problem, and you are really a miracle doctor."

Xu Changshan laughed, Yang Jianguo bought a breakfast and came to sit with them: "Mr. Xu, are you here to deliver medicine again?"

Xu Changshan said: "I haven't been here for a while, and I remember a few old friends, so come and see, by the way, what about Lao Lu, who often plays cards with you?"

Yang Jianguo's expression was compensated: "Gone."

"Huh? When?"

"The Mid-Autumn Festival has just passed, eighty-five, happy and mournful."

Xu Changshan touched his lips, Lao Lu was his co-worker when he came down to renovate, to him

Very careful, also an old diabetic, family life is difficult, Xu Changshan will come to him every once in a while to see a doctor and deliver medicine, I didn't expect that this time I came to Yin and Yang separated.

Yang Jianguo said: "There is nothing to be sad about, everyone has this day, more than half of our workers' village is now full of old people, young people have gone out to work hard, who is still staying in this shabby place, there are more old people, there are more white things......

Before he finished speaking, there was a horn outside, and Yang Jianguo said, "Old Lady Wei also left last night, do you remember?"

Xu Changshan nodded again and again, remember, of course remember, Mrs. Wei is very good, when he transformed, he also helped him put on a quilt and make cloth shoes, the old lady had rheumatoid arthritis, and he also helped to treat it, and this time he also brought her medicine.

Xu Chunliang saw that his grandfather was greatly affected by the death of the two deceased, so he changed the topic and said, "Grandpa Yang, when we came here just now, we saw that the surroundings were being demolished?"

Yang Jianguo nodded again and again: "No, Qingshan Lake has been rated as a 4A scenic spot, saying that our surroundings have become scenic spots, and what water streets and folk villages to build have to be demolished."

Xu Chunliang smiled, "Then go to a new house."

"I can't afford it!" Yang Jianguo shook his head, and then he remembered to ask about the relationship between Xu Chunliang and Xu Changshan, thinking that Xu Changshan had brought the apprentice, but he didn't expect it to be his own grandson.

Talking about his grandson, Xu Changshan was full of arrogance, and told Yang Jianguo that his precious grandson is now the branch director of Changxing Hospital, don't look at Lao Tzu at home, he doesn't seem to take Xu Chunliang's position as a thing, but he praises him a lot outside.

Yang Jianguo praised: "Jiangmen Huzi, he is really young and promising, let's have two drinks at my house for dinner at noon?"

Xu Changshan said that after sending the medicine to the old sick number, he would turn around and leave.

After the two finished eating, they took the first step.

Xu Changshan's two old friends who originally wanted to deliver medicine passed away, and his mood was affected, when he passed near Mrs. Wei's house, Xu Changshan glanced at it from a distance and did not pass, he suddenly had a thought, I am afraid that those old patients will be gone when he comes next time, in fact, I don't know if I can come.

Life is like this, there are always people who have to go first, Xu Changshan thought of Gu Houyi's invitation again, although the conditions are good, but after going there, he is faced with a group of old people, wouldn't he have to face this situation every once in a while, as a doctor, watching the people around him die one by one, and he can't do anything, what kind of sadness should this be.

Thinking of this, Xu Changshan suddenly felt bored, and he said to Xu Chunliang, "Chunliang, I don't plan to go to the Town Health Hospital."

Xu Chunliang took a moment, the conditions given by Kang Jian are not unfavorable, grandpa has already cooperated with them before, why did he suddenly change his mind? Xu Chunliang pondered for a while, and immediately guessed that he must have been devastated by the death of his old friends one after another today.

Although the elderly can take care of each other, there is also a problem that is difficult to ignore, entering the pension institution will enter a special environment, which is out of normal society to a certain extent, and more importantly, their age composition determines that they are exposed to death more frequently than in the family.

Xu Chunliang said: "If you don't want to go, you won't go, it's not that I can't afford to support you, and besides, you don't want anyone to take care of your body now."

Xu Changshan pursed his lips, his grandson's words made him feel comforted from the bottom of his heart, although his children were not around and did not understand him, but his grandson was really good, he must understand his thoughts.

Xu Chunliang said: "Anyway, you can't be idle, why don't you think about it and do me Uncle Zheng a small favor."

Xu Changshan immediately shook his head and said, "Don't mention it, I won't make trouble for you."

When passing through the sixth building of the old dormitory, a person came out of it, the person was tall and strong, and there was an old lady behind him, but it was Zhou Meng, a forest ranger from Qinglong Mountain.

Zhou Meng carried his mother downstairs to bask in the sun, but he didn't expect to meet Xu Changshan's grandson and said in surprise: "Mr. Xu, why are you here?"

Xu Changshan smiled, "You used to live here?"

Zhou Meng said, "My mother's house." He put his mother down.

Since the last time Zhou Meng opened the blood-nourishing bone soup from the Rejuvenation Hall, and gave it to his mother, the effect was remarkable, and the old lady was very resistant to surgery, and after the symptoms were alleviated, she completely broke off the idea of surgery.

Now the old lady can walk, but Zhou Meng still doesn't worry about her going up and down the stairs, every time he goes up and down the stairs, he carries it on his back.

Xu Changshan admires filial piety the most, although he has not known Zhou Meng for a long time, he can also see that this is a great filial son.

The old lady's surname is Liu, and when she heard that Xu Changshan was the old Chinese medicine doctor who prescribed medicine to her, she quickly thanked him, and the way the people expressed their gratitude was also very simple, that is, to invite the old gentleman to eat at home.

Xu Changshan couldn't help laughing, he said that he had just had breakfast, and since he had met it, he asked about Mrs. Liu's condition.

Mrs. Liu feels much better, since taking medicine according to the doctor, the pain that tormented her in the past has disappeared, you must know that she was so painful that she couldn't even get out of bed, she was not afraid of anything, she was afraid of dragging down her son, Zhou Meng is thirty-two, because the family conditions are not good, and she has not even talked about a daughter-in-law until now.

She had such a disease again, seeing that her son had to go to work and take care of himself again, Mrs. Liu really couldn't bear it, she had thought of death before, and if she died, it would be a hundred, and she would save the child from dragging down her child.

Xu Changshan asked her to walk a few steps, and the old lady walked with obviously long and short legs.

The usual symptoms of femoral head necrosis are hip pain, limited mobility, and in severe cases, long and short legs, which is clinically known as a claudication gait.

Femoral head necrosis is a common clinical disease, which is generally difficult to treat and is more common in middle-aged and elderly people.
