Chapter 53: Brother, What Are You Anxious For?
Hearing Wang Shuyu's voice with a crying tone, Xia Huai paused, and then reacted: "It should be covered, where is it?" I'll take a look at it for you. ”
Wang Shuyu bit her lip, and then carefully opened the placket, revealing a piece of snow white, and there were a little red spots in the snow white.
Xia Huai was stunned and tilted his head a little embarrassed: "Ah, you wait, I'll go get you medicine!" ”
As early as when the high temperature hit, Xia Huai prepared medicines such as prickly heat powder and dermatitis ointment in advance, and wrapped them in wooden boxes and oiled paper respectively.
Wang Shuyu hurriedly wrapped herself up and looked at Xia Huai's back expectantly.
After a while, Xia Huai came over with a small paper bag: "Oh, this is a medicinal powder, you wash it every day and dry it and apply some, once in the morning and once in the evening." After thinking about it, he said, "Now that water is scarce, you can wipe it with a clean cloth dipped in water." ”
Wang Shuyu breathed a sigh of relief and said gratefully, "Thank you, Xia Huai." ”
Xia Huai shook her head, but when she walked back, she was stopped by her brother: "Xiaohuai, what did you just go?" ”
"Oh, Sister Shuyu asked me for some powder."
Xia Ji moved his mouth, wanting to ask something, but he didn't dare to ask.
Xia Huai looked at her brother's tangled appearance, and said in her heart: "Don't worry, it's a little thing." ”
Xia Qi immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and then brought it up again: "You, what nonsense are you talking about, I, I'm not worried..."
I saw Xia Huai smile even more slyly: "Brother, what are you anxious about?" Isn't it normal for people to care about each other? After speaking, before Xia Ji could react, she slipped away.
Leaving Xia Qi in place, angry and laughing.
Due to the high temperature, even if they cook rice, they don't eat it right away, after all, it's hot... Therefore, just as everyone was chatting at the pot, there were bursts of footsteps in the distance.
"Big Mountain?!"
Xia Dashan's body stiffened, and he turned his head in disbelief: "Zhang, Village Chief Zhang?" ”
Village Chief Zhang, who was ten steps away from him, ran over excitedly: "It's really you, me, I thought I recognized the wrong person!" Look, what's on your face? It's so bad that I don't dare to recognize people! ”
Since he knew that there was an epidemic, Xia Dashan and others put on masks under Xia Huai's supervision. These masks were sewn by Zhou Huiniang with rags, and there were seams left on the sides for easy replacement.
Zhou Huiniang, who was next to Xia Dashan, suddenly regretted that she didn't remind her husband to take off her mask in time, and it was really unfortunate to be seen by Village Chief Zhang at this time!
Xia Dashan, who was warmly embraced by Village Chief Zhang, was very cramped, he remembered that his family and the village chief's family did not deal with each other, right? There are even some bad fights?
But reaching out and not hitting the smiling person, Xia Dashan could only endure it.
Although Xia Dashan didn't explain why he was wearing a mask, Village Chief Zhang didn't care, let go of Xia Dashan excitedly, turned his head and beckoned behind him: "Dashi Damu, come here!" ”
Only then did everyone look over, and there were more than a dozen people standing there, including the family of Village Chief Zhang, whom Xia Dashan knew, and the rest of the ten or so people did not know.
Zhang Dashi and the others followed after hearing the voice, but the rest of the people looked hesitant, suspicious, vigilant and uneasy.
Don't talk about them, I'm afraid that only Village Chief Zhang's family here is happy!
Oh, except for one person.
Zhang Damu lowered his head in embarrassment, eager to dig a hole from the ground with his bare hands and get in! He really doesn't understand how his father can be so cheeky, the two families are clearly inseparable, especially with Xia Dashan, how dare his father!
But some people not only dare, but also dare to kick their noses in the face.
When Village Chief Zhang saw the meat in the pot, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva: "Yo! Is this going to eat? Is it a misfortune that we're here..."
Xia Dashan said embarrassedly: "Haha, how could it be..."I know that unfortunately you still asked, why do you owe it so much!
Xia Huai said bluntly: "Village Chief Zhang can't help it, I didn't know I would meet you, so the food he cooked was only enough for our own food." ”
Village Chief Zhang was stunned by Xia Huai's words, and waved his hand awkwardly: "How can I eat your family, we have dry food, haha!" Although he said this, he suddenly beckoned behind him: "Come, big dog, get close to your sister Huai." ”
Xia Huai: "??? "Who am I? Where am I? Where did they come from?
The eldest girl only called 'sister', the dog was dirty, looking at the meat in the pot and drooling, and her mouth was not impolite and shouted: "Meat!" Daddy, I want meat! Grandfather, give me meat! ”
Village Chief Zhang was embarrassed and pulled the dog egg and reprimanded: "Dog egg! Don't be rude! This is someone else's, how can you open your mouth to ask for this and that? Although he said this, his triangular eyes were aimed at Xia Dashan's family.
That means like, are you embarrassed? We adults can not eat, children are hungry for two bites, you are reluctant? How much can a child eat?
However, as if Xia Dashan's family had not received the signal from Village Chief Zhang, Zhou Huiniang greeted her family while serving dinner: "Xiaohuai Xiaoxiao, come to dinner!" The lowered eyes were full of disgust for Village Chief Zhang's family.
"It's coming!" Xia Huai took her father away by the way.
Seeing Xia Dashan and Wang Tieniu eating fragrantly, the dog was so angry that he cried: "I want to eat, I want to eat meat!" ”
Village Chief Zhang was disgraced, and he was angry in his heart, and slapped the dog hard when he heard the words: "What are you crying about!" If you have a greedy mouth, you eat or drink if your home is short? ”
Dogan has always been the most favored at home, and this is the first time that he has been beaten and scolded by his grandfather, and his heart is in disbelief and at the same time there are bursts of grievances. Where did the child understand the twists and turns of the adult, and immediately rolled on the ground and splashed: "Dad, mother!" Grandfather hit me! Grandfather beat me..."
Zhang Dashi's face was as black as carbon, but he couldn't say his father, so he could only pull his son's ears and take him aside and point at Sang and scold Huai: "Cry, cry, cry, you know crying!" I didn't see that people didn't care about your life or death, and cried for a little food, is there any interest?! ”
Dashi's daughter-in-law saw that Xianggong was really ruthless, and hurriedly stopped: "Why are you beating the child, it's not our dog's fault... There are some people who have black hearts, and children are reluctant to eat a mouthful! ”
Liu Qingyun's face flushed, and his subconscious eating movements slowed down, and he whispered with some hesitation: "Do you want to give the dog a mouthful..."
Zhou Huiniang rolled her eyes and stopped Liu Qingyun: "What are you doing for them?" You can't feed the dogs! Feed the dog and protect the owner, feed them? You're just waiting! I won't miss you for good! ”
Liu Qingyun didn't know the virtues of Village Chief Zhang, but when she saw the child, she subconsciously softened. Listening to Zhou Huiniang's persuasion, she no longer insisted.
In the end, Village Chief Zhang and his family angrily walked to a place far away from them and sat down to eat dry food.
The people who traveled with them finally had time to joke.
"Yo, Village Chief Zhang, is that from your village? How can you be so virtuous! ”
There is no shortage of people in the world who love to join in the fun, and people always like to explore some other people's private affairs, as if this can make them happier and live longer.
Village Chief Zhang didn't want to say too much, after all, he really planned to not blame him when he met acquaintances in troubled times, but he didn't expect Xia Dashan's family to give him face like this. So, he rolled his eyes and sighed with a sad face: "Hey, they are also like this for a reason, and they all blame my family!" ”
"Oh?" When others heard that there was really a secret, they immediately stretched their necks to listen: "What do you say?" ”
