36 crutches
Mrs. Feng was scolding, and her eldest granddaughter Li Lamei came over, "Milk, I'll go to the field and pull a radish." "When Mrs. Feng, Li Yougui and Du Chunxia were quarreling, Li Lamei had been cooking rice in the stove room, and she wanted to go to the field to pull a radish and mix a shredded radish for dinner.
Mrs. Feng scolded again: "You go to the field to pull radishes, who will cook the rice at home?" ”
Li Xiangye Cao replied: "The bay leaves are burning on fire. ”
Mrs. Feng said reluctantly: "Let your mother pull the turnips, I still want to go back to the house to support the corpse on this busy day." ”
Li Xiangye dared to talk back, and responded: "Okay, I'll go and call my mother." ”
Li Xiangye took a step, and Mrs. Feng roared again: "The pigs at home are still waiting to eat, call your mother, you will go to the mountains to cut some pigweed and come back to feed the pigs, one by one, it will not make people worry." ”
Li Xiangye replied with an 'oh'.
Mrs. Feng's family lived in the middle of the village, and when she shouted in a loud voice, the neighbors around her could hear it clearly. Not only did the neighbors hear it clearly, but Li Dagang was also woken up by his grandmother's loud voice, and turned over impatiently, but the sound in his ears became louder and louder, as yesterday, he had lost his sleepiness after being noisy, and after turning over and getting up, he yelled at Mrs. Feng: "Don't let people sleep?" ”
When Mrs. Feng saw that Li Dagang was up, her face, which was as black as a dark cloud, suddenly cleared up, and she also had a smile on her face, and asked with a concerned face: "Why don't you sleep more, the meal is not ready, what are you doing so early?" ”
Li Dagang had the same temper as his grandmother, and he also yelled loudly: "I heard you constantly arguing about this and that early in the morning, and why did you let people sleep?" ”
As soon as Mrs. Feng heard that Li Dagang blamed herself for arguing with her, she began to complain about Du Chunxia again, blaming the dead mother-in-law, and said kind words to Li Dagang: "Okay, the milk is not making trouble, you go back to the house to sleep, and when the dead girl of Xiangye has finished the meal, the milk will come and call you to get up again." ”
At this time, Li Dagang was completely the same as Mrs. Feng, he was self-centered, and Li Dagang had no elders in his eyes, and he had no manners, so he only listened to him with a bad look, and said to Feng in a blaming tone: "How can you sleep?" Why do you go to sleep when you're woken up? He said that he was still sleeping, but his feet went to his room, and when he got back into the house, he fell back on the bed.
The Li family's morning is chickens and dogs, while the Mo family is as usual, quiet and warm.
The Mo family, Song Nanzhi got up early in the morning, thinking that his body was much better, and he had to hurry up the work in the field, so he got up early, and after preparing to cook and eat, he went to the field to dig the red roots.
Mo Tingyu's leg has been injured since now, although he can't walk yet, but it doesn't hurt much, as soon as it doesn't hurt much, he no longer wants to lie motionless on the bed day and night, and after supporting himself and sitting up, he let Song Nanzhi help him out of bed, and then let Song Nanzhi help him jump to the front room and sit on the chair that Song Nanzhi had placed in advance, and after sitting down, he lifted his injured leg to the bench placed opposite. After sitting down, he breathed a long sigh of relief, "If you fall asleep in bed again, this body will be wasted." ”
Song Nanzhi complained: "It's not good to let you lie down, you have to get up and become a cow." ”
Mo Tingyu said with a smile: "I'd rather be a cow every day than sleep in bed all day long, my body hurts these days." Then he said, "Go and bring me some buds from home, and I'll peel them." ”
Song Nanzhi turned around and walked away, and said as he walked: "Okay, well, in the future, all the buds in this house will be peeled by you." "What he said was that it all belonged to Mo Tingyu, but the bud valley mentioned was indeed only half a basket. walked up to Mo Tingyu and put the half-basket of bud grain he was carrying in front of his feet, "You peel it, I'll get it after peeling it." ”
Mo Tingyu looked at the half-basket bud valley at his feet with a smile, and said, "There are only a few, I'll finish peeling them in a while." ”
When Mo Ziyun woke up by herself, Mo Tingyu almost finished peeling off the half basket of buds under her feet, looking at Mo Tingyu sitting on the chair, Mo Ziyun was not very surprised, except for the first few days of his leg injury, his grandfather was lying on the bed well, and he would get up from time to time, "Grandpa, why did you get up?" ”
Mo Tingyu said with a smile: "If I don't get up and move again, I will have mold on my body." ”
Mo Ziyun can especially understand that his grandfather is lying in bed all day long, and he has nothing to pass the time, he is quite bored, but he is a little worried about whether his legs are touched, "Grandpa, how did you get here?" Didn't touch your legs, did you? ”
Mo Tingyu looked at her granddaughter's concern for herself, and replied, "I didn't touch it, your milk supported me, this leg never landed, I jumped over slowly." ”
Although it is a little dangerous to jump and walk, there seems to be no other way than to jump at this time, and grandma can't carry him. Thinking about jumping, it's okay to jump a few steps in this room, but with the recovery of the legs, the amount of activity will gradually increase in the future, if it is only a one-legged jump, it will not work for a long time, what if you fall? And grandma can't always support him at home, she is at home, but this small body, you can't hold one leg, let alone a person, you have to be a crutch.
"Just jumped a few steps, don't worry, with your milk support, it's okay!" Mo Tingyu looked at Mo Ziyun and kept looking at her legs without speaking, thinking that she was worried that she would touch and fall when she jumped, so she continued.
Mo Ziyun was thinking about modern crutches in her mind at this time, and only after hearing Mo Tingyu's words did she say: "In a few days, grandpa's legs will recover better and better, and then he will need to go out more to move, but he has to make a crutch to use, and he can walk without being helped by anyone with crutches." ”
The granddaughter wanted to do whatever she wanted, Mo Tingyu didn't think much about it at all, "Okay, make a crutch, and I'll let your grandmother find a wooden stick to use as a crutch later." ”
Mo Ziyun shook her head and said, "It's not a wooden stick, you have to do it specially, I'll show it to you after I've drawn it." ”
Mo Tingyu still agreed, "Okay, I'll do it after you finish drawing." ”
What Mo Tingyu thought in his heart was that the crutches were not so difficult, and they were just a wooden stick. It's a pity that he forgot that her granddaughter is a baby with a lot of ideas.
Breakfast is still a bowl of gruel, but one person boiled an egg to eat, to talk about eating eggs, or Mo Ziyun insisted, concisely said, the body can only be good after eating, otherwise the health will have to spend money to see a doctor if the health is not good, and the money for seeing a doctor is much more expensive than eating.
Everyone understands this, in the past, the body could still be dragged and the medicine was not expensive, but this time it was different, the old man fell down, she was seriously ill again, and she owed a lot of money to see a doctor and take medicine at once! So after Mo Ziyun said it, she boiled an egg to eat every other day, and added a little more rice when cooking, at least not like before when she only saw soup but didn't see rice.
After eating, Mo Ziyun remembered the crutches, put down the dishes and chopsticks and ran back to the room to draw, the crutches were simple, a wooden stick plus a tripod supported under the armpits, after a few strokes, he blew the ink, and immediately took it to Mo Tingyu and said: "Grandpa, look, such crutches." ”
Mo Tingyu looked at the crutch drawings brought by her granddaughter, and asked incomprehensibly, "What kind of crutches is this?" It's not easy to hold in your hands! ”
Mo Ziyun pointed to the tripod at the top of the drawing and said: "This place is supported under the armpits, and when both sides are supported at the same time, you can set up the person, and then the feet can take a step forward, stand firm and then prop up, and then take a step forward." ”
It's simple, Mo Tingyu understood it very well when he heard it, "This method is good, but no one in our village knows how to carpenter, so let your grandmother go to the next village to find a carpenter another day." ”
Mo Ziyun replied: "It's good to ask grandpa to help you make one." ”
Mo Tingyu said: "Your grandfather and they are also very busy on weekdays, and besides, we are far away, and we have to walk back and forth for most of the day." ”
The grandparents in Mo Ziyun's mouth are indeed very far away from Lushuiyuan Village, thirty miles away, and it takes two and a half hours to go back and forth.
For his in-laws, Mo Tingyu felt very guilty. Not only did he not take good care of his daughter, but he also failed to keep his granddaughter, especially after Mo Ziyun was not good, he once wanted to hide it, but he felt even more sorry for others after hiding it, after saying it, their family not only did not blame themselves, but now they still love Wan Wan as their own granddaughter, and they will always come to see her once or twice a year, especially when the farm is busy, they will always come to the house to help.
"Then don't look for grandpa, grandma can go to the next village to find a carpenter to do it, there are carpenter masters in the county, we can also go to the county seat." Mo Ziyun said.
Mo Ziyun said it easily, but it was different in Mo Tingyu's ears, and she immediately thought of whether she would go to the county to find someone to do it when she and her milk were not paying attention, and couldn't help but get nervous, "Wanyun, you are still young, you can't run around, this crutch is not a big deal, and she is not in a hurry, when your milk is empty, she knows how to find someone to do it." ”
Mo Ziyun didn't know how nervous his grandfather was, but she felt that she was an obedient and good doll, so she immediately responded after Mo Tingyu told herself: "I know, I definitely won't run around, when grandma is free, my grandma will go to the next village to find a carpenter." ”
Mo Tingyu was relieved, "Okay, when your grandmother comes back from the field, I'll tell your grandmother again, let her go when she's free." You don't want to run around, you know? Mo Tingyu saw that Mo Aziyun agreed quickly and well, and was afraid that she would deal with herself, so she told her uneasily.
Mo Ziyun still looked like a good doll, and nodded in response: "Well, I definitely don't run around." But at this time, she also saw that her grandfather was a little worried about herself, and said secretly: Sure enough, you can't lie casually, so you can only lie once, and now you won't be trusted. In order to stop dwelling on this issue, Mo Ziyun changed the topic and said: "I haven't seen my grandparents for a long time. ”
