46. First aid lotus

The three-person provincial city tour led by Zhao Zhibao began at 10:28 a.m. on December 3. This is a slow train to the provincial capital, along the way, there are many passengers up and down, and there are not many until the provincial capital. There are fast trains, but they are all passing by, and there is no location when there are many people. There is no place to sit, for Zhao Zhibao young man, it doesn't matter! But for Zhao Zhizhen, it's a little inconvenient! You are pregnant, and others can't see it, only less than 4 months old, and you don't show your pregnancy. Even if it's a big-bellied woman, no one may give up the position, no one knows anyone, it's not so polite! Therefore, Zhao Zhibao chose the slow train.

At about 11:30, the bus began to sell food: "A piece of boxed lunch, a piece of boxed lunch, a steaming meal!" As he pushed forward, he said, "Whoever wants to eat, please hurry!" One piece, just one piece! ”

Zhao Zhibao said: "Sister! Let's eat! He bought three copies, gave one to his sister, one to Xia Lotus, and kept one for himself.

Xia Lotus said: "Zhibao! I'll give you some evenness, how can you have enough? ”

"Eat! One point is not enough, I will buy another one later. Zhao Zhibao said.

The radio with music playing: "Attention passengers! Attention passengers! The conductor asks for help! The conductor asks for help! There is a passenger in car No. 11 who is in a hurry, so please ask the doctor for your support! Please help the doctor! ”

Zhao Zhibao listened, hurriedly put down the lunch box, went to the suitcase, took out the medicine box, and said, "Flowers!" You eat, I'll go and see! "Let's go.

When I came to carriage 11, I saw a group of people gathered in a heap. A middle-aged man who looked like a doctor was talking to himself there: "It's weird! Why doesn't it work? ”

Zhao Zhibao squeezed forward and glanced at the middle-aged man's badge: Wang Daoquan of the Provincial Military Hospital. Zhao Zhibao asked, "You are Dr. Wang, may I ask where the patient is uncomfortable?" ”

"Who are you?" Wang Daoquan asked.

"I know a little bit about Chinese medicine. My name is Zhao Zhibao. Zhao Zhibao said.

"Oh! Do you know a little bit about Chinese medicine? This is an emergency, is Chinese medicine useful? ”

"Why are you talking like that, can't Chinese medicine doctors see the emergency department?" Zhao Zhibao said.

"Can you see it? Come and see! "Wang Daoquan wants to give Zhao Zhibao an army." I know a little bit of Chinese medicine when I am young, and I can see a doctor, you can show me! ”

Zhao Zhibao put the patient's hand (a girl's hand - a beautiful girl's hand) in his left hand, pressed his right hand on the girl's pulse, paused for about ten seconds and said, "The girl is not sick!" It's just that I'm so old that I came to menarche, and the pain was unbearable! Just a few stitches are all it takes. ”

The child's parent, a woman about 30 years old, listened to Zhao Zhibao's words and said, "Then ask the doctor to take a look!" ”

Zhao Zhibao called the conductor and the police on the train to invite the onlookers away, and asked the girl to take off her trousers, the girl just touched her stomach, looking painful, and her mother helped her take it off. Zhao Zhibao only pricked a total of 6 stitches in the front and back of his shorts, only to see the tail of the needle that had not entered the flesh shaking violently. The girl did not cry out in pain, there were two minutes. Zhao Zhibao pulled out the needle, disinfected, and collected the needle in less than 5 minutes. Say, "All right! Get dressed and don't get cold! ”

The girl got dressed herself. The girl's mother said, "Thank you, doctor! How much? ”

Zhao Zhibao glanced at Wang Daoquan, then at the little girl, and said jokingly: "As long as the little sister calls me brother, I won't take a penny!" ”

"Thank you, big brother!" The girl was very well-behaved, not only called her brother, but also added a "big" word in front.

"What a little sister! I admit it! Good bye! Zhao Zhibao picked up the medicine box and left.

"Really, don't want a penny?" The girl's mother asked.

"Manly man, one word, words count, goodbye!"

"Little brother! Please wait! ”

"Auntie! Anything else? ”

"Little brother! So, I have seen your medical skills, and I have asked for one thing, and I wonder if I can answer it? The child's mother said.

"What's the matter! You said! ”

"My dad has a strange disease and is bedridden all year round! I have seen many big hospitals in the provincial capital, but they have not been cured, Western medicine can't even touch the door, and various instruments have been used to check, but I can't find any results. Is it possible? The girl's mother said.

"Illness can be cured after all! It's just that I'm traveling with my lover, I'm afraid I don't have time. Zhao Zhibao said.

"Little brother honeymoon tour! I'm sorry to bother! Don't know where to stay? If you haven't decided on a place to live yet. Come to my house for a few days and there will be no problems! The girl's mother said.

"Not really! We dropped my sister home and had a place to stay. Zhao Zhibao said.

"So, where does your sister's family live? Excuse me! I just wanted to contact you and ask more. The child's mother said.

"I don't know the specific address, I'm also here for the first time, probably Lotus Lane, East Street, the house number is not clear. My sister will take me there. ”

"Oops! What a coincidence! Our home is also in Lotus Lane, East Street. Lotus is my daughter, and she was born in Lotus Lane. His grandfather named her Lotus. The girl's mother said.

"Alright, alright! No need to check the address, wait for us to get off the bus together, go back together, or everything will be clear! Zhao Zhibao said: "Auntie! See you when you get off! ”

"Little brother! What carriage are you, we'll look for you later! The girl's mother asked.

"Car No. 6. Good bye! "Zhao Zhibao hurry up. Why? His boxed lunch was cold early, his stomach was hungry, and Xia Lotus was also in a hurry.

Zhao Zhibao returned to the carriage, and Zhao Zhizhen said first: "Silly brother! Seeing a doctor, not asking for money is a good deed, I appreciate it! But you have to eat, too! If you don't want money, you don't want to die! ”

"How do you know you don't want money?" Zhao Zhibao asked.

"That's what it said on the radio!" Xia Hehua said with a smile: "The radio said that this is a good person and a good deed, and calls on everyone to learn!" Elder brother! You're going to eat too, why is it so long? ”

"That's right, the girl's mother pulled me and talked a few words, delayed." Zhao Zhibao asked: "Rice!" Where's my rice? ”

"Your meal is here!" Zhao Zhizhi took out a few pieces of clothing: "Let's see if it's cold?" ”

Zhao Zhibao reached out and touched the lunch box and said, "It's okay!" So Zhao Zhibao began to eat.

After a while, another seller said, "If you haven't eaten yet, please hurry!" Here are the last few boxes, price reduction! Two boxes for one dollar! ”

Zhao Zhibao said without hesitation: "Bring me two boxes!" "Throw a dollar to the waiter who sells the food, and two boxes of lunches will be in hand. After a while, the three empty lunch boxes were thrown into the trash can on the edge of the seat.

Zhao Zhizhen saw that his younger brother had finished eating, so he asked, "Xiaobao!" Why do you eat so much? One person eats three boxes at a time, which is the amount of food for the three of us! ”

"Sister! Do you just know that I will eat so much and not know how much I earn? You can't figure out the physical strength and energy I spent. For example, when I prick that girl a few stitches just now, it consumes half a day's internal strength and aura. The generation of this internal force and aura mainly depends on cultivation, first of all, to absorb the aura between heaven and earth; The second is from food. If I don't eat, where does the internal strength and aura come from? Where did the power come from? You haven't seen it yet! But brother Qian Long has seen it with his own eyes, not the little brother blows, the brother is not an ordinary person, he has studied kung fu for a few years, a strong man like Qian Long, 10 8 put them down, it's just a matter of minutes! Zhao Zhibao said.

"Just blow it!" Zhao Zhizhen said. Zhao Zhibao ignored it and meditated independently.

"Sister! Zhibao is not blowing, it is true! That time I went shopping with my mom and met a hooligan. It was Zhibao who pushed down the flower thief nicknamed the flower thief with a slight pull of his hand, causing him to trip over a dog and eat, and he couldn't get up for a long time when he fell to the ground. Xia Lotus said excitedly.

"It seems that you are truly in love with Zhibao!" Zhao Zhizhen said.

"Sister! In fact, I really fell in love with Zhibao because he cured my illness. Xia Lotus said: "You haven't seen me before, when I was a child, I was accidentally burned by fire, and my face and chest were left with burnt scars, the area was very large, and the hospital doctor said that it could not be treated, and it was difficult to remove the scar with any skin grafting method." Zhibao helped me cure, sister! Look at me, can you still see the marks of scars? No! I've already looked in the mirror, but I can't find the slightest scar. It was Zhibao who gave me a beautiful face! It was Zhibao who gave me a second life! Sister! Where do you say to find such a man? I have nothing to repay, not even the medical bills. But Zhibao said that he didn't take a penny! I had no choice but to make a promise! I wasn't afraid that Zhibao wouldn't like it, but it was just my wishful thinking, so we made a verbal agreement: three years later, if he hasn't talked about a partner and got married, he will reluctantly marry me! Zhibao's condition is so good, what kind of good girl can't find it! It means that she is in love with me, and of course I will leave everything to him. But I'm only 16 years old. My parents were also worried about my health, but I was afraid that I would lose the opportunity, so I didn't hesitate to come to my door to grab my relatives! Sister! Am I a little thick-skinned, do you think? Xia Lotus said a lot to herself, and finally asked such a question: Is it thick-skinned?

"Silly sister! What a thick-skinned you are brave to pursue! High reputation! My sister admires you very much! From now on, you're really beautiful! I, Sister Qian Feng, are far from comparable! I also respect my brother, who has vision, foresight, and courage, and people say that the eighteenth change of the female university, if you are not so beautiful in three years, will my brother still honor the agreement? Zhao Zhizhen asked.

"Yes! Definitely! As Zhibao said, he said, 'If I can't cure you, I'll marry you!' This is a promise made before the healing. At that time, I was so excited! This is tantamount to giving me a reassurance. So I listen to Zhibao in everything, and I'm willing to leave everything to him! ”

Although Zhao Zhibao meditated, he still heard their words. He has always maintained a state of cultivation and has not said a word. But the radio sounded: "Fellow travelers! Our train is almost at the final station, please pack your bags and don't leave it on the train! The broadcast was followed by an introduction to the provincial capital.

Hearing the announcement, Zhao Zhibao stopped meditating and began to clean his bags. At this time, a little girl was shouting, "Big brother! Here we go! ”

Zhao Zhibao said: "Sister Lotus! How did you guys get here? ”

Qiu Lianhua said: "My mother is afraid that she will get out of the car and get lost, so she will take me to you first." ”

The girl's mother said, "Little brother! It's abrupt! As he spoke, he walked towards Zhao Zhibao.

Zhao Zhizhen asked, "Who is she?" ”

Zhao Zhibao said: "Lotus mother." ”

Zhao Zhizhen asked, "Who is Lotus?" ”

Zhao Zhibao said: "Lotus? Lotus is the sick little girl. ”

Zhao Zhizhen asked, "What are you looking for?" ”

Zhao Zhibao said: "That's right, their family also lives in Lotus Lane, and they came to invite us to get off the bus together." ”

Zhao Zhizhen said: "I see. Their faces are a little familiar, as if they have seen them before. ”

She glanced at Lotus again and said, "Sister Lotus! What is the number of your family? ”

Qiu Lianhua said: "No. 15." ”

Zhao Zhizhen said: "No. 15? Isn't that Director Qiu's house? Your surname is Qiu? ”

Qiu Lianhua said: "My surname is Qiu, and Qiu Changfu is my grandfather. Auntie, what is the number of your house? ”

Zhao Zhizhen said: "Sister Lotus! My house number 36. ”

The girl's mother said, "Oh! It turned out to be neighbors! Big girl! Excuse me, brother! "It's so far away and neighbors, I've never seen someone so talkative, what's the picture? There must be something to ask for my brother.

"Let's go, let's go!" The end of the line has arrived. The one who got out of the car saw that Zhao Zhibao was blocked, so he shouted.

"Good, good! Get out! Aunt! Let's talk about getting out of the car! Zhao Zhibao said.

Zhao Zhibao protects his sister and is afraid of being touched. He only stopped with his hand, and those who got off the train couldn't move forward, so he made a way, Xia Lotus opened the way, Zhao Zhizhen followed, and got off the train after a while.

Qiu Lianhua looked around when she got out of the car, and when she found the target, she shouted: "Dad! We're here! While raising his hand and shaking, he held his mother's hand tightly and waited. Of course, Qiu Zhimin also found his wife and daughter.

The three of them get together. Song Xiaoling told her husband: "Zhimin! I got a doctor for my dad. ”

Qiu Zhimin saw that he was a young man, and he didn't believe his wife's words. But it's not good to say much, since ancient times, heroes have been teenagers, maybe young people are really heroes! It doesn't hurt to try! Qiu Zhimin was very polite, walked up to Zhao Zhibao and said, "Little brother! Listen to the insider, your medical skills are excellent! I'm going to trouble you! He took the initiative to reach out and shake it.

Zhao Zhibao said: "Don't bother! It is the duty of a doctor to treat the sick and save people, as it should be! "Be kind, too.

"Then get out of the station and get on the bus!" Qiu Zhimin said.

I didn't say what car to get into, Xia Lotus thought: It's not a carriage at all! Maybe there are horse-drawn carriages in the provincial capital?

Why don't there be carriages in the provincial capital? There are still horse-drawn carriages in Beijing today! I really haven't seen the world before. Of course, Qiu Zhimin drove not a horse-drawn carriage, but a military vehicle - a jeep, whether it was a private car or a public car in those days, it was not ordinary people who could drive the car.

Zhao Zhizhen only knows that Qiu Changfu is from the Department of Health, how can he still have a relationship with the military? She can't figure it out, just have a car to sit in! The car made an agreement: at 7 o'clock in the evening, Zhao Zhibao will go to the 15th.

The car passed by No. 36, maybe Qiu Zhimin drove it like this, and after the car dropped off Zhao Zhibao and his gang, he went to No. 15.

Zhao Zhizhen's lover Chen Jinsheng and Chen's father have not yet left work. Chen Jinsheng didn't know that his wife was coming back today, only his mother-in-law was at home, and when he saw the guests, he asked, "Zhizhen!" It's—"

"Mom! This is my brother, that's my brother and sister! They are here for their honeymoon. Zhao Zhizhen introduced.

"Oh! It's his uncle! (Before the children were born, someone called them uncle), and it was an old lady (not old, only 51 years old). ”

Zhao Zhibao hurriedly shouted: "Good mother-in-law!" Xia Lotus also shouted, the voice was too small, the old lady may not have heard it. It didn't matter, the old lady went to the kitchen.

"Zhenzhen! Come here! "The sound came from the kitchen.

When Zhao Zhizhen heard the shout, he said to Zhao Zhibao: "You two live in the west room, it turns out that your parents lived, go clean up yourself, and I'll come back later." "I went into the kitchen by myself.

"Zhenzhen! You cook the rice first, and wash the vegetables! I'll go to the market and buy some groceries and come back. You can be careful, stay safe," the old lady admonished, and went out with the basket.

After Zhao Zhizhen confirmed that she was pregnant, her mother-in-law was very kind to her, and never let her enter the kitchen, offering like an ancestor.

Today, there are suddenly three more people, and they are rare guests and distinguished guests, so we have to get a few decent dishes! So she did not hesitate to use her daughter-in-law. It was not easy to be a daughter-in-law in the past, especially a new daughter-in-law! As Liu Ruyue said, being tossed by her husband for one night at night, you still have to get up early the next day, this is the old rule. Xia Lotus didn't touch it, and Zhao Zhizhen didn't touch it either. Now it can be said that the woman has turned over, Zhao Zhizhen took a week off in order to go home, and told the unit that there was a premature birth prelude and she wanted to protect the fetus. The old lady knows that this is a lie, but she can't expose it! In the old society, mothers-in-law were in charge of daughters-in-law. The new society has become a daughter-in-law in charge of her mother-in-law. Women turn over, isn't mother-in-law a woman? How to turn over? This is off topic.

The old lady didn't go long and came back from buying a lot of vegetables. There is no fresh fish and meat, and I bought a lot of cured meat, and there are still a few appetizers anyway. Meals are not a problem.

At five o'clock, Chen Jinsheng and Chen Xiangguo, who were at work, came back. It is inevitable that everyone will introduce, know and say hello. Chen Xiangguo works in the Machinery Bureau, and it seems that he also holds the position of a division chief. The people at the dinner table were not interested in him, Chen Jinsheng worked in a bank and was a person who didn't like to talk. To say that he only talks softly to his wife, so it is appropriate to eat silence here! Since people don't drink alcohol, they just eat for dinner.

47. Rescue Changfu

After the meal, everyone didn't have much to say, Zhao Zhizhen said: "Xiaobao! I'll take you to the 15th later! ”

"Sister! You rest yours, I know how to go, only now-" He glanced at his watch and said, "6:41, a few steps, 3~5 minutes to arrive, don't worry!" ”

At this moment, someone knocked on the door, and Chen Jinsheng asked, "Who?" ”

"It's me, Qiu Lianhua. Big Brother Open the Door! ”

Qiu Lianhua's voice, Zhao Zhizhen said: "Husband! Open the door! It's looking for my brother! ”

Chen Jinsheng felt a little strange, why did he come, and someone came to the door. But he went and opened the door anyway.

"Big brother! I came to pick up my eldest brother on my mother's orders. Qiu Lianhua said to Zhao Zhibao.

"What do you want to take?" Zhao Zhibao took the medicine box and said to Xia Hehua: "I'll be back within an hour!" Sister! You take care of it for me! Sister Lotus! Let's go! ”

The appointed time is coming soon, and someone is coming to pick it up, hurry up! Out of the door to the alley, Qiu Lianhua rushed to carry the medicine box. Zhao Zhibao hurriedly said: "Do you still want to take this thing?" You and I are an old man, an old man! ”

Qiu Lianhua said: "Brother Zhibao (changed to Brother Zhibao)!" Do I want to learn medicine from you? ”

"No! Because I don't have apprentices! Zhao Zhibao replied decisively.

"Then I'll be your helper and work for you!" Qiu Lianhua said.

"No! I don't ask for help! Because I already have helpers. Zhao Zhibao said.

The 15th arrived.

No. 15 is a detached courtyard. It is equivalent to a courtyard house in Beijing, which is one level worse than a villa, not to mention facilities such as swimming pools and no gardens. But there is a vegetable garden, and of course flowers are planted a lot, especially potted plants. But it seems that there are no flowers to enjoy at the moment! The house is huge, with at least 8 rooms, two halls. Zhao Zhibao took advantage of the fact that the sky was not yet dark and the street lights were open, so he took a few cursory glances, and followed Qiu Lianhua into the first hall.

"Mom! Brother Zhibao is here! Qiu Lianhua shouted.

Song Xiaoling was busy saying hello and asked Qiu Lianhua to make tea.

Zhao Zhibao said: "Auntie! You're welcome! Take me to see a patient! ”

Qiu Zhimin said: "Little brother! Follow me! ”

Qiu Zhimin led Zhao Zhibao to the east room of the second hall, a large room, a lean old man with gray hair, lying sideways on the bed. Qiu Zhimin said: "Dad! Your daughter-in-law has hired a Lang Zhong for you! ”

The old man did not take a physical examination, but asked, "Which hospital is the doctor?" Haven't you seen it all? How did another one pop up! ”

"Dad! Listening to Xiaoling, he is a master of the world, not a doctor in that hospital. Qiu Zhimin said.

"Son! How can there be any out-of-the-world master now? It's a charlatan, right? The old man said.

Zhao Zhibao couldn't listen to it anymore, and he didn't want to waste his precious time on meaningless words. So he said to the old man, "Uncle! I am Jianghu Langzhong, and I am a young Jianghu Langzhong. But I have a medical certificate, not a charlatan! I think I'm a good doctor! But he's not a master of the world! If you show me, I'll show you! If you don't want to, I'll leave right away! "Let's go.

These words are very straightforward and cool, not only doctors in big hospitals can see patients, but also charlatans must be liars! The old man Qiu Changfu seemed to wake up and said, "Little brother! Please stay! Qiu Changfu rolled over and turned his face outward. Qiu Changfu has a sallow face, thin and energetic, and his eyes are still bright. He looked at Zhao Zhibao and said, "Little brother, please take a seat!" ”

Zhao Zhibao was not polite, took a chair by himself, and sat on the edge of the bed. "Uncle! Stretch out your hand, and I will press your pulse. Zhao Zhibao motioned and asked Qiu Zhimin to bring a pillow over.

Zhao Zhibao put Qiu Changfu's hand on the pillow and gave Qiu Changfu a pulse. After a while, I didn't ask, but I looked at it (or looked at it). He said, "Uncle! Your illness can't be cured in a big hospital, and it's normal if the instrument can't be detected, you're not sick! Rather, he was poisoned by insects. It's all in the internal organs, and if it continues to develop, it won't take a week, uncle—do you know? ”

"Oh! Is it so serious? Uncle Qiu asked.

"Serious, not serious, you know it in your heart! Whereas, you believe me. I can cure you, but my charges are very high! Zhao Zhibao said.

"How much?" Uncle Qiu asked.

"Fixed price: 100,000 yuan!" Zhao Zhibao said tentatively.

"Too much! Brother! Qiu Zhimin said.

"Is it much? Uncle Qiu! Zhao Zhibao called Qiu Zhimin his uncle.

"Good! 100,000 I'm out! Please come to the rescue, little brother! Qiu Zhimin said.

"That's right! Before rescuing, find a way to heat up the room, add electric stove, coal stove, and charcoal fire. "Zhao Zhibao commanded." Only Uncle Qiu was allowed to wait for the fire in the room alone, and the rest were not allowed to enter. ”

Qiu Zhimin complied. About 20 minutes later, Zhao Zhibao asked Qiu Zhimin to strip his father and cut his pants, and the old man only had a pair of shorts left and asked, "Are you still taking off your shorts?" ”

"Take it off!" Zhao Zhibao said.

The old man was lying naked on the bed, Zhao Zhibao began to prick needles, only to see his silver needles quickly inserted into the old man's body. A total of 25 stitches were pierced up and down. The singular one is pierced on the top of the head. The rest are all one-to-one pairs, a total of 12 pairs. After about two minutes, Zhao Zhibao took a special disinfectant cotton and wiped it in order at the root of the silver needle, and when it was about three minutes, Zhao Zhibao began to pull out the needle, disinfect, wipe and collect the needle, and it was done in one go. It takes less than 5 minutes before and after.

Zhao Zhibao said: "You can remove the fire and dress!" ”

Zhao Zhibao sat on the chair, panting and wiping his sweat. After two minutes, the old man was dressed. Zhao Zhibao said: "Uncle! You can walk around on the ground! ”

Qiu Zhimin helped his father get out of bed and stand firmly, trying to help his father go. Zhao Zhibao said: "Don't help you! Let him go on his own! The old man was still stubborn, and he pushed his son's hand away and began to walk. I felt that my feet were strong, so I strode up. The old man said as he walked, "Won't it be better?" Yes! I'm all right! The old man jumped slightly.

"Uncle! Is it good that you can just walk? No! Not yet! At least one more needle will be pricked again. I'm tired tonight, see you in three days! Zhao Zhibao picked up the medicine box and left.

Before Qiu Zhimin could react, the person had already walked to the first hall. Song Xiaoling saw Zhao Zhibao and asked, "How is my dad?" ”

Zhao Zhibao said without looking back: "I'm sorry, I'm going to rest, you can go in and see for yourself!" ”

Zhao Zhibao returned to the 36th at 7:45, and Zhao Zhibao said: "If you have anything to say, I'll talk about it later!" I'm going to take an hour of rest first. When he entered the room, he threw away the medicine box and began to meditate. Xia Lotus was also confused, but he knew that Zhao Zhibao was very tired!

She gently closed the door and came to the living room to continue chatting with Zhao Zhizhen and their family.

Let's go back and see how the 15th reacted. Song Xiaoling saw Zhao Zhibao hurrying away, thinking that her father-in-law's illness was troublesome and tricky, and it might be that Qiu Zhimin offended Zhao Zhibao. She had to go to the backyard and have a look. When she saw her father-in-law laughing with her husband, she fell to the ground with a stone. It's the doctor she invited herself, she is responsible, it's good to be cured, how can she explain to this family if something goes wrong? She stepped forward and shouted, "Dad! ”

Qiu Changfu smiled and said, "Xiaoling! You have made a great contribution to the Qiu family, Dad thanks you! After thinking about it, he asked, "How did you know this little brother?" ”

So Song Xiaoling told Qiu Lianhua about the ins and outs of Qiu Lianhua's illness in the car, which was treated by Zhao Zhibao, and he didn't ask for a penny.

"Oh! This little brother's consciousness is quite high! Qiu Changfu said.

"Then how can he treat his father and ask for 100,000 yuan?" Qiu Zhimin said.

"Ah, 100,000 yuan!? No way? I guess it must be fake! Don't believe it, wait and see! Song Xiaoling said.

"No guessing! Isn't your father's life worth 100,000? I'll give you this money! Qiu Changfu said.

This made Qiu Zhimin believe it, and he didn't believe it. Only listen to your wife, wait and see!

8:45 Zhao Zhibao finished meditating, stood up and took a breath and walked out of the room.

"Chi Po! You're out! Xia Lotus first found Zhao Zhibao and said, "Okay! ”

"Rest well! I'm telling you, I almost collapsed tonight! 25 stitches in a row consumed the internal strength and aura of my whole body. At that time, I was exhausted, and I sat for a while before I was relieved, and I might have to make a fool of myself if I stayed there! So hurried back to rest. After meditating and cultivating, I have finally regained my vitality, and now I can say what I have to ask! Zhao Zhibao said.

Zhao Zhizhen asked: "Xiaobao! What kind of illness is the old man? How many stitches will it take so much physical strength?

Zhao Zhibao said: "Uncle Qiu is infected with insect poison, not a disease!" But the poison is too deep, if you want to cure it, you have to work hard, not physical strength, but internal force and aura! Do you know Reiki? That's what you cultivate, and you can't cultivate it in 10 years or 8 years! Of course I used it and it will be restored, you see, now I have it again.

Indeed, how can ordinary people understand the matter of cultivation? Isn't this playing the harp to a cow? But Xia Lotus loves to listen.

Xia Lotus returned to the room and wanted to listen, but it was already past 9 o'clock. In those days, there was no such thing as television, and people went to bed early. Xia Lotus wants to do that. Zhao Zhibao said: "I'm already tired, besides, it's inconvenient for us to be guests!" ”

"What's inconvenient? We do ours, what do they do? If you're really tired, forget it! The body matters. ”

"It's not as hard as you said, but after meditating, isn't it recovering?"

However, Xia Lotus eats well, is in good health, recovers quickly when she is young, and is newly married, and seems to be addicted to the thing between husband and wife, since Zhao Zhibao said that she has recovered, Xia Lotus still asks Zhao Zhibao to do that - what is it? Find out for yourself!

48. Husband and wife shopping

Or Zhao Zhizhen's mother-in-law, Mrs. Chen Xiangguo, Jane is Mrs. Xiangguo! She got up the earliest, not the era of enjoying the happiness of her daughter-in-law! I have to prepare a family's breakfast, and my husband, son, and daughter-in-law are all office workers, and I can't count on any of them. The daughter-in-law only came back yesterday, and the vacation is not over, but she can't call her! She is a pregnant woman and the emperor! The one who can move is himself. But today, she gave an order to Chen Xiangguo: "Old man, get up!" Go to the nearby restaurant and buy some steamed buns and fritters! I've already cooked the porridge, I'm going to go grocery shopping, you hurry up and help me. ”

Chen Xiangguo woke up early, and his wife said that he wanted him to help, and he was still happy to do this, but he didn't know how much to buy. "Wife! How many fritters to buy? How many buns? ”

"I don't know how much, you can estimate it yourself, anyway, it's better to have more than less! Young people eat a lot, so it's better to buy more! Mrs. Xiangguo's answer, Chen Xiangguo was very dissatisfied, so he could only rely on his own estimates.

So Chen Xiangguo finished grooming and went out at once, but Mrs. Xiangguo didn't freshen up and left a long time ago.

Zhao Zhibao was the third to get up. It is his habit to go to bed early and get up early, although there is no place to practice boxing, but he still insists on meditation and cultivation. After a night of cultivation, he regained his strength and spirit. He woke up Xia Lotus and said, "Flowers! We're guests, we can't sleep in! ”

Xia Lotus obediently got up and said, "Husband! I listen to you, let's freshen up! ”

Zhao Zhibao came out after freshening up, and saw Chen Xiangguo coming back with two bags of food. Zhao Zhibao shouted: "Good father-in-law! So early, huh? ”

Chen Xiangguo said: "You are early! Then he went into the kitchen. Obviously, I want to take a plate of buns and fritters.

Zhao Zhibao said: "Father-in-law! Let's do these things! After that, he first went into the kitchen to look for plates, his heart was good, but he was not familiar with the business. Chen Xiangguo, who entered the kitchen later, got the basin first.

At that time, paper bags or lotus leaves were used for food, unlike plastic bags for all kinds of food now. Chen Xiangguo took out the buns and fritters from the paper bag and placed them neatly on the plate.

Mrs. Xiangguo came back and saw her husband arranging buns and fritters. Just say, "Prepare a rice bowl and serve porridge!" She walked into the kitchen and put down the basket and asked, "Why hasn't your son gotten up yet?" ”

"Mom! We're up! When Chen Jinsheng and his family left the room, they heard Mrs. Xiangguo's questioning. Chen Jinsheng replied loudly.

"What are you yelling at? I want to scare people to death! The words of the Duchess made everyone laugh.

After breakfast, it's time to go to work. Zhao Zhibao's tour is about to begin.

Zhao Zhizhen asked, "How do you arrange it today?" ”

Zhao Zhibao said: "No goal? ”

Zhao Zhizhen said: "Xiaobao! Why don't we go shopping together and see the style of the provincial capital! ”

Xia Lotus said: "Okay, good! Chi Po! Let's go shopping! ”

Zhao Zhibao doesn't care, since his wife is willing to go shopping, let's go! Men are supposed to accompany women.

It's easy for people in the city to go shopping, and it's just the street when you walk out the door. When they walked out of Lotus Lane, it was already a street. However, it is not the most lively place, there are indeed few people shopping in the daytime, only department stores, department stores, whether day or night, there are many people. Sometimes it's not an exaggeration to describe it as a sea of people, don't go without a purpose! In addition to the large number of people, there are more than two: there are many pickpockets and many hooligans.

Calling department stores actually more than department stores. Food, clothing, play, daily use, non-essential, everything, only you can't think of it, there is nothing you can't buy.

There are many people, many pickpockets, and crowded people, which is the place where pickpockets come into play, and the battlefield of training. It is generally difficult to find those who are pickpocketed, and it is normal to bump into each other and crowd them. Who knew that was a pickpocket? Is that just the customer's hand? Even if you find it, it's hard to catch! The pickpockets were in the crowd, 7 hiding and 8 hiding, and they disappeared at once. Pickpockets take advantage of the large number of people.

The people in the world are strange. There is a kind of person who loves to be greedy, likes to touch women and take advantage of a little advantage! The crowding scene of this person was taken advantage of by this kind of person. The body is squeezed, the hands are scratched, the purposeful search, and the object is touched, which makes those girls and young women cry bitterly!

Zhao Zhibao's task is very heavy! He is responsible for his sister's safety from being collided, and he has to protect his lover Xia Lotus. He doesn't want his wife to be touched by others! Entering the department store, Zhao Zhibao walked in front of the road, stretched out his hands to the side, and immediately a wide road came out in front of him. Zhao Zhizhen followed, followed by Xia Lotus. No one crowded them! However, this does not mean that others are not crowded.

When Xia Lotus saw a bundle of flower cloth on the counter, she stepped forward and touched it and said, "Sister! This color is beautiful, bright, soft, and feels so good! ”

"Then buy one! You have a good figure, make a set of underwear! Chi Po must like it! Zhao Zhizhen said.

"Chi Po! Do you like it? Xia Lotus asked.

"Like, like!" Zhao Zhibao said.

"Master! How many feet should I pull to make a set of underwear? Xia Lotus asked. The master is a female saleswoman who sells cloth, and she is in her 30s and calls her a master, which is polite!

The master glanced at Xia Lotus, a beautiful girl! "How tall are you?" The master asked.

"About five feet (1.66 meters)." Xia Lotus replied.

The master used his abacus to calculate and said, "This is high-grade silk, it does not shrink!" It's three feet three inches wide, and you only need to buy one foot and one foot to make a set of underwear. ”

In the past, the salesman who sold cloth must know how to cut! Serve customers and put them into action. It is a waste for customers to buy more, and it is even more wasteful if they buy less.

"Master, you're so good, I'll just pull a foot and a foot!" Xia Lotus said.

"Alright!" As soon as the master agreed, he began to measure the size, and when he was full of one zhang and one foot, he said loudly: "One zhang and one foot, put two inches, a total of one zhang and one foot and two inches." After cutting a knife, take one side of each hand and "hiss", and the remaining little is owed to pick up another knife, and a piece of fabric comes down. The master folds the fabric with 7 folds and 8 folds, then wraps it with a piece of white paper and puts it on the counter. picked up the abacus again, crackled and said, "1 piece of 8 mao and 1 foot is a total of 11 feet, a total of 19 pieces and 8 cents." ”

Zhao Zhibao dropped 20 yuan, and the master said: "Charge you 20 yuan, find you 2 cents, comrade, please take it!" The master handed the wrapped cloth to Xia Lotus. A deal is over.

49. Gangsters are trained

There is a saying: wealth is not exposed! It means that if you have wealth on your body, you can't show it, and if someone else finds out, it will cause trouble! Isn't it! Zhao Zhibao generously paid money, but was discovered by a group of people, and people wanted to see money.

Zhang San said to Li Si: "Fourth brother! See? That guy is rich! What do you think? Shall we do it? ”

Li Si said: "Brother! Needless to say, people die for money, and birds die for food! If you don't take money, you're a fool! Dry! ”

Zhang San and Li Si are just representatives of this group, and there are six or seven of them in a group! Zhang San said: "The old way: I'll take it from you!" "Good! Let's go! Li Si said.

Zhao Zhibao They just left the counter, a strong man Zhang San, and hit him head-on, ordinary people after this collision, must be unstable, there is a fall, at this time there must be a kind person stepped forward to help, down to the bag, transfer the results. If it is found and the bag has been moved, you will not be able to catch the evidence. However, although Zhang San was strong, he did not knock Zhao Zhibao into him. Li Si reluctantly stepped forward to hug Zhao Zhibao, and Zhao Zhibao became alert. When Li Si reached into Zhao Zhibao's pocket, he was grabbed by Zhao Zhibao's wrist! "What do you want to do?"

Li Si tried to break free. But with all the strength of his life, he can't get it back. Zhang San stepped forward and punched Zhao Zhibao in the chest, and Zhao Zhibao grabbed Li Si's hand with his right hand and brought it to his chest, "Ouch!" This punch is hitting Li Si.

Li Si screamed and said, "Why are you beating me? Zhao Zhibao let go of Li Si, and Li Si fell.

Zhao Zhibao said: "Fight! Keep playing! ”

Zhang San picked up his fist again, and hit Zhao Zhibao hard in the chest, it seems that Zhang San is good at piercing the heart boxing, when the fist reached the chest, Zhao Zhibao turned sideways like lightning, stretched out his left foot to block Zhang San's feet, and pressed his right hand on Zhang San's back and pushed: "You take it off for me!" "Zhang San" bang! He lay on the ground with a thud.

Zhao Zhibao stepped forward and stepped on Zhang San and said, "You must still have accomplices, come out!" If you are not convinced, come up and try it! I told you to pick other people's pockets! ”

Li Si just lay down, and there was no pressure on his back. And Zhang San was trampled on the ground, and the pressure on his back was too great to move! So he begged for mercy: "Big brother! Spare your life!?

"Who's your big brother? I don't want your life, as long as you promise not to be a pickpocket again, I will spare you! Zhao Zhibao said.

Li Si hurriedly got up and said, "I promise!" No! We guarantee it! Don't be a pickpocket again! Repeat offenders who are hit by a car and die! Zhao Zhibao saw that Li Si's oath had been made, and he believed him! Such a person will be handed over to the police station, that is, he will be released after a few lessons. Why don't you teach yourself a few words and do personal favors! So he let go of his feet and let Zhang San also stand up. Say to them, "Let's start a small business in the future!" Well done! It will be developed! Let's go! Don't pick it up, I'll give you 500 yuan. ”

Zhang San and Li Si made a 90-degree bow to Zhao Zhibao and left with a thousand thanks.

Zhao Zhizhen said: "Xiaobao! I can't see that you really have two hands, and you are still righteous and squandering money! Sister convinced! ”

Xia Lotus said: "Sister! What I told you is true! You still don't believe it! ”

Zhao Zhizhen said: "Believe, believe! My dear brother and sister! How blessed you are! Zhao Zhizhen was happy for Xia Lotus from the bottom of her heart.

Xia Lotus said: "Sister! A crowded place is lively, but inconvenient. Is there a park? Why don't we go to the park and have fun! ”

Zhao Zhizhen said: "There is a park! There are several! The closest to us is Changle Park! ”

Xia Lotus said: "Zhibao! Is it okay to go to the park? ”

Zhao Zhibao said: "Okay! ”

Changle Park is one of the big parks in the provincial capital, with mountains and rivers, and all kinds of toys for children to play with. The lake is large and winds around the park's attractions, and the best way to do it is to take a boat ride. Zhao Zhibao rented a boat for the two women to sit on, and rowed the boat himself.

Swinging a slung is a technical job, Zhao Zhibao has never been on a boat since he was born, how can he be able to shake a sway! So the ship spun in circles. Wanting to let it move forward, it sailed to the side, making Zhao Zhizhen dizzy! "Silly brother! Don't push too hard, shake slowly, and grasp the direction is the most important. Try it out and see how to get the bearing! ”

Xia Lotus said, "You come and sit!" Wait for me to paddle! ”

Zhao Zhibao obediently put down the oar, sat down in the position of Xia Lotus, Xia Lotus picked up the oar, and slowly shook it. The boat stopped spinning in place, and began to move forward in the direction of Xia Lotus! Zhao Zhibao paid attention to Xia Lotus's movements, and thought to himself: Oh! This little beauty can also make a boat, haven't you learned? So he asked, "Flowers!" Have you ever learned to shake? ”

Xia Lotus said: "I have learned." We also have a lake in Qizhen Park. On Sundays, winter and summer vacations, rowing on the lake is one of our common activities at home, so I also learned how to rock the boat with my father. "The summer lotus flower can indeed be shaken, but it is a pity that the physical strength is lacking, and it doesn't take long for it to be drenched in sweat.

Zhao Zhibao said: "Flowers! Let's be laid off! Let me try again! ”

So, Zhao Zhibao began to shake again. After a few clicks, the boat began to spin again. Zhao Zhibao thought for a while, and slowly shook it again, hey! All right! The ship was able to move forward as he thought! As long as the technique and skill are mastered, the speed of the ship will increase.

Zhao Zhizhen said: "The children can be taught! "After a while, the boat will go to the island in the middle of the lake, stop the boat and rest.

Zhao Zhibao said: "You guys go around and take a look! I'm sitting here guarding the boat. "The two women are very interested, whether there is anything interesting or not, they are willing to go for a walk, and they also need to move after sitting for a long time. So the two women went to the island.

Xia Hehua found the toilet at a glance and said, "Sister! I want to go to the toilet, are you going? ”

"Go!" Zhao Zhizhen is also going.

The island in the middle of the lake is not big, and you can see it all at a glance. There are several kinds of children's toys, put them there, what seesaws, little wooden horses, they are all women, not interested! So he came back.

Zhao Zhibao asked, "Is it fun?" ”

Xia Lotus said: "So-so, you go and have fun!" There are small trojans. ”

Zhao Zhibao said: "Why don't you play, so I don't go to ride a small wooden horse?" I'm going to ride-" I didn't say it, my sister is here, it's not good to joke!

"Since you don't want to play, let's get on the boat! Check it out there! ”

That side refers to the mountain, Zhao Zhibao's ability to control the ship has been greatly improved, the sailing speed has accelerated, and the ship has stopped on the shore at once.

"Sister! You and the flowers go up the mountain! Zhao Zhibao said.

"I don't want to go!" Zhao Zhizhen said: "If you want to go, you guys go!" I look at the ship! ”

Zhao Zhibao didn't want his sister to go, a pregnant woman, in case she tripped, she would be in trouble. However, he still spoke, and just pushed the boat down the river and said, "Sister! You just rest where you are! We'll be back! After speaking, he took the summer lotus and began to climb the mountain.

Although it is a mountain, for Zhao Zhibao, it is a hill, like a flat land, going up, Xia Lotus closely followed, but it was still a distance behind, Xia Lotus bloomed and shouted: "Zhibao!" You don't want a wife, I'll tell you to ride a wooden horse at night! "Only these two mouths are left, and Xia Lotus speaks first.

"Good! Waiting for you! Hurry up! Zhao Zhibao stood in place: "Come on, wife!" Come on, wife! ”

"Don't add it! Give me a hand! The oil is gone. Xia Lotus said.

Zhao Zhibao hurriedly took a few steps back and grabbed his wife's outstretched hand.

"No! Looks like you're no match for me in that regard! Zhao Zhibao said.

"Yes! Husband! You're amazing! I'll obey you! He approached Zhao Zhibao and kissed him.

"Wife! It's so sweet! Zhao Zhibao said in return.

"Can't go on again!" Xia Lotus said: "It's easy to go up the mountain, but it's hard to go down!" I'm afraid I won't be able to go downhill, husband! I really can't go downhill! Carry me! "Summer lotus is coquettish.

"Come on!" Zhao Zhibao stood on the downhill side of the summer lotus, doing a good job of carrying it.

"It's really back!" Xia Lotus said.

"Isn't that what you said? Come on! Your husband has the strength, I'm afraid you won't be able to eat it at night! Zhao Zhibao said nonsense.

"Back! I'll let you carry it! It's good for someone like you to expend a little effort, or it's really unbearable! ”

Xia Lotus climbed on Zhao Zhibao's back, and did not forget to count Zhao Zhibao.

"Downhill!" Zhao Zhibao went downhill in one breath as if he was walking on flat ground.

"And came back?" Zhao Zhizhen asked.

"We were afraid that my sister would be in a hurry alone, so we only climbed a little bit high and came down." Zhao Zhibao said: "A mountain like this, I call it a slope, just a slope, and it is not easy to climb!" But the flowers couldn't, saying that they couldn't climb, so they came back. ”

It wasn't too early, and Zhao Zhibao rocked the boat and put them back on the boat. Leaving the park, I slowly walked back to No. 36 Lotus Lane to catch the lunch prepared by Mrs. Xiangguo.

After a morning of swimming, both women were tired. Zhao Zhibao said: "Let's go to the movies in the afternoon!" Watching a movie is to sit and rest, not tired. ”

Zhao Zhizhen said: "I won't go to the movie, you little couple go!" I'm resting at home. ”

Zhao Zhibao said: "Sister! I haven't seen the movie yet! Come with us! It seems that Xia Lotus also has this request, Zhao Zhizhen has no choice but to agree.

So the three of them went to the street to watch a movie again. The movie starts at 2:40 p.m. for the second and the first at 12:30 p.m. I didn't catch up with the first game, and the second game was early, so I had to wander the streets.

The title of the movie is "Little Moon". A little girl's love story, Xia Lotus is very happy to see it, she is a little girl, and she feels the same way. The storyline is simple, and there is no surprise and touching love plot of its own! Just watch it, just pass the time. Zhao Zhibao is not interested in movie stories, but is really curious about movies! Don't say that Zhao Zhibao was curious in those days, many people were curious. This principle is not something that ordinary people can clearly explain. He had no choice but to ask, "Sister! How did those people get to the curtain? ”

Zhao Zhizhen said: "Sister can't say clearly, you just need to know that the person on the curtain is just the shadow of a person, a kind of photo, you have taken a photo!" Photography is called photography to continuously and quickly photograph people's activities. Photographic negatives are serial photographs that sense human activity. If you want to show a photo, you use a projector, under the illumination of the light, the photo runs quickly, and his shadow is cast on the screen, which is the movie. However, this is a silent film, and later with the addition of recording equipment, it was combined with a silent film, and it became the real movie of today. ”

Zhao Zhizhen doesn't know much, and he doesn't know much about it, but he can talk about it to this extent, which is already a high level. Zhao Zhibao's talent is very high, and after his sister said it, he understood. "Sister! This man is really smart. ”

Zhao Zhizhen said: "It's nothing, I heard that there is a TV now, and you can watch movies while sitting at home." ”

Zhao Zhibao said: "Really! In the future, I will definitely buy one and let my parents sit at home and watch a movie. "That's for later.
