Chapter 16 Orthopedics
On Songbai Street, the tall and thin man came out of the small courtyard of the Duan family and went straight into the Chinese medicine hall opposite.
His name is Lu Changqing, and the old man who treats Granny Duan during the day is his own grandfather.
The old man was still sitting on the Taishi chair at the entrance of the store at this time, and when he saw him coming back, he immediately asked, "Is the old woman dead?" ”
"The body is so good, I can't die." Lu Changqing didn't even look at the old man, went around to the back of the cabinet and took two bottles of medicinal oil and was about to leave, but the old man blocked his way with a crutch, "Grandpa is talking to you, what kind of attitude do you have!" ”
"Grandpa, you are eighty years old this year, the little young twists and turns are not suitable for you, you are really worried that the old lady just has to go and see, why do you insist that I go to stand guard at the door in the dark light, and I am afraid that the fat girl will not recognize that I am a doctor, and it is not too expensive to turn on such a big lamp!"
"Adult's business, you little fart child knows a fart!"
Lu Changqing simply put down the medicinal oil, "Then you can't see this leg?" ”
The old man, who was originally commanding, immediately put away his crutches, "Doctor's parents, don't ask me about your own affairs." With that, he stood up and walked to the backyard.
"Originally, it took two minutes to drag on for a day, and this old lady had to lie in bed for three or five more days, and I don't know what you want to do in your heart......" Lu Changqing complained without hesitation, and then picked up the medicinal oil and went to Duan's house.
In the small courtyard, Zhou Huilan didn't dare to delay, after all, it was really not early.
She had used the briquette stove and liquefied gas, but she had not used the firewood stove outside the kitchen, and it took several puffs of smoke to barely light a little spark, but it was quickly extinguished as soon as it was thrown into the stove.
did this twice, Rao is Zhou Huilan was full of passion, and she was a little discouraged.
At this time, the door was pushed open, and Lu Changqing, who had gone to get the medicinal oil, came back.
As soon as he entered the yard, he coughed a few times from the smoke, noticed that Zhou Huilan couldn't light a fire here, and walked over without hesitation, first pulled out a few of Zhou Huilan's stuffed firewood, and then pulled out a piece of cloth and fine grass from under the firewood by the stove, and handed it to Zhou Huilan's face.
"Ignition."
The sound is crisp and crisp.
Zhou Huilan, who realized it later, hurriedly struck the match, and the grass was ignited and quickly thrown into the stove, Lu Changqing hurriedly added two more firewood into it, and then clapped his hands and stood up.
"Thank you, my name is Zhou Huilan!" Zhou Huilan stretched out her broad palm, the corners of her mouth raised, and her face was full of kindness.
is not a good-looking face, the facial features are sunk into the flesh, and the smile is full of folds, but Lu Changqing was stunned.
I always feel that I have seen this face somewhere, but when I think about it carefully, I can't remember it at all.
The man's non-response made Zhou Huilan a little embarrassed, but in the end, she was also a person in her fifties, and she withdrew her hand in embarrassment and prepared to continue cooking.
"Lu Changqing."
When Zhou Huilan turned around again, the man had already strode into the house.
The fire in the stove quickly dried up the pot, and Zhou Huilan didn't have time to be surprised, so she hurriedly went into the kitchen and brought out the eggs she had just beaten, and first rolled a spoonful of oil to the bottom of the pot.
Time is in a hurry, and she doesn't plan to make those complicated ones, so she is going to make a pimple egg soup.
The pot quickly heated up, and the beaten eggs were poured along the edge of the pot, quickly expanding like a cloud, while the eggs were not fully formed, Zhou Huilan took the chopsticks and pulled them a few times, and the eggs were scattered into small pieces, followed by a handful of minced garlic, and an attractive aroma of eggs and garlic suddenly spread in the yard.
Zhou Huilan couldn't help but take a few deep breaths, poured three bowls of water, and then closed the lid tightly.
In the house, Lu Changqing had already helped Granny Duan's knee to be reset, but the swollen calf because of the lack of blood circulation was not so easy to go away.
Originally, this was a matter of ten seconds for him and his grandfather, but the old man didn't know what kind of wind he smoked today, so he drove the old lady out early in the morning, and now let himself be courteous.
After rubbing the medicinal oil along the tendons and veins for more than a dozen times, Granny Duan's face was much better.
Zhou Huilan, who came into the house to see the situation, originally had the aura that Wang Jianye's scumbag gave to Lu Changqing during the day, and seeing that such a kung fu made the old lady's face bloody, and she admired Lu Changqing more and more, "Doctor Lu, you are so amazing." ”
"It should." Lu Changqing put away the medicinal oil and wiped his hands, and got up indifferently to say goodbye.
But as soon as he got rid of the smell of medicinal oil in the room and walked under the porch, he smelled a fragrant smell of garlic, which was not greasy or greasy, and it made him feel a little hungry.
A little forgetful, he walked a few quick steps along the scent, and then he realized that the fragrance actually came from the stove of the woman who couldn't even light the fire just now.
Lu Changqing couldn't believe it.
It just so happened that Zhou Huilan came out to pay for his consultation, and when she saw Lu Changqing staring at the pot, she asked politely: "Doctor Lu, have you eaten?" ”
"Gollum ......"
Lu Changqing's stomach gave an answer very cooperatively.
In a hurry, Zhou Huilan continued to be polite: "Coarse tea and light rice, do you want to stay and eat some together?" ”
Lu Changqing immediately frowned, and just when Zhou Huilan thought that he had refused to send off the guest, he heard the man's loud "Okay!" ”
This crisp and neat answer made Zhou Huilan think in a trance that what she was stewing in her pot was a mountain and sea delicacies such as Buddha jumping over the wall, not a bowl of egg gnocchi soup.
She also wanted to say that she would make a little more hearty, but that was all there was to it at home.
I had no choice but to wait for the water to boil, added half a bowl of water, threw in half a bowl of chopped vegetables, put salt and soy sauce, and then stirred the stirred gnocchi into the pot little by little.
A bowl of mother-in-law, a bowl of Yaoyao, and a bowl of Dr. Lu, and the remaining half bowl at the bottom of the pot is a little fried batter, which is her dinner.
White, green, yellow, looking light, eating fragrant, Zhou Huilan was originally quite satisfied with her dinner arrangement.
just added Dr. Lu's extra bowl, which made her feel bottomless.
Doesn't it mean that most doctors have a habit of cleanliness and eat at other people's houses so casually?
But she asked, and they agreed, and it was inappropriate to refuse again.
Zhou Huilan could only bite the bullet and bring the meal over.
In the morning, the stools bought in the second-hand market were moved out, and Yaoyao was allowed to use the chair in her mother-in-law's house as a table.
Only Lu Changqing frowned at the bowl of egg gnocchi, as if it was not for food, but as dignified as a bowl of poison.
"Doctor Lu, do you want to ...... I take you to the snack street, what do you like to eat, I have a treat? Zhou Huilan thought that the food was simple and difficult to swallow, and it was difficult for him to be embarrassed.
Who knew that Lu Changqing shook his head, and then pulled the pimple soup in the bowl with chopsticks, and took a big bite like a train.
Yaoyao, who was eating quietly, heard this movement as if she had been provoked, and she picked up the bowl and "snored" loudly......
For a while, there were "snoring" one after another under the corridor, not to mention how lively it was.
Lu Changqing came out of Duan's house again, and the small light at the entrance of the Chinese medicine hall had been extinguished.
He entered the door in the moonlight, bolted it from the inside, and walked briskly to the back room, only to find his grandfather still lying in a rocking chair under the patio.
"Why aren't you sleeping yet?"
"Have you eaten?"
The old man's words made Lu Changqing feel that he covered his mouth, and then realized that he had no silver three hundred taels here, and he was about to go back to the room with his hands behind his back.
But the old man followed.
"You've really eaten! What's delicious? You're going to eat so late! Did you bring it to grandpa? ”
Lu Changqing refused to answer and wanted to close the door, but the old man pressed his foot against the door, and he didn't dare to come hard.
Seeing that his grandfather's hands were wiped on his mouth, Lu Changqing hurriedly shouted: "Miss Xu has to lie in bed for at least a week!" ”
Taking advantage of the old man's distraction, "Bang! The door was slammed shut.
