Chapter 12: Impersonation (6)
I see, no wonder the big girl suddenly came to the door to deliver meat.
Guoda Lu nodded: "Snake meat has the effects of dispelling wind and dampness, invigorating blood and removing stasis, reducing swelling and relieving pain, detoxifying and cleansing the skin, and it is good for fever patients to replenish their bodies." ”
The big girl couldn't help but glance at Guoda Road more: "It turns out that Brother Guo understands medical skills?"
Guoda Lu was stunned, and hurriedly snorted: "Three-legged cat, I don't understand it." ”
The big girl said: "I still have some brown sugar at home, and it's best to replenish my body, so I'll bring it to Uncle Guo." As he spoke, he didn't allow the National University Road to push back, and he hurriedly went out.
Guoda Lu looked at the back of the big girl who disappeared outside the door, and suddenly a thought came to mind, this big girl, but a pair of heavenly feet, coming and going like the wind, doesn't it mean that the ancient big girls are not out of the door, weak and not through the wind, and they will bury flowers at every turn, spit out blood, burn a poem or something? Yes, she is stupid enough, the young lady of the rich family is naturally pampered, the eldest girl is the child of the poor, the child of the poor is in charge early, she has endless housework, how can she wrap her little feet and pretend to be young?
Guo Dalu clumsily used chopsticks to feed Guo Jin half a piece of snake meat and drank a few mouthfuls of soup. After Guo Jin had a fever, his spirit was half better, and although he was blind, his son returned to his side, so that he was not sad but happy - as long as his son came home, he didn't care about anything.
Guo Dalu himself was so hungry that he had become Guo Jin's fake son, he simply didn't think about it anymore, sighed, and ate the rest of the snake meat.
Snake meat is a good thing, Guoda Road used to love to eat burnt salt snake segments, the outside is charred and the inside is tender, the most delicious. But in the snake meat sent by the big girl, it was simply put a little salt and scattered some chopped green onions.
Even so, Guoda Road almost bit his tongue when he ate - poor God, he finally didn't have to eat garbage.
Guo Jin was lying on the bed, although he couldn't see it, he still turned his head to the side of Guoda Road, as if just listening to his son eat was his greatest happiness.
There was a chaotic footstep outside the door, but the big girl went and returned, in addition to bringing brown sugar, sandwiched by the cold wind, and also brought Zhu Lao Village Chief and others.
The old village chief was surprised and delighted when he saw that Guo Jin was already awake and could even eat: "Guo Jin, your son is really happy for you when he comes back, and you are actually cured of your illness." Originally, the doctor said that you can't survive the past few days, and I have already found someone to make longevity materials for you. "Shoucai, it's a coffin.
Old Village Chief Zhu was open-mouthed, but Guo Jin didn't care, what else in this world could be more important than his son coming back? A sincere smile appeared on his withered yellow face: "Uncle Zhu, I've bothered you." Lu'er, thank you Uncle Zhu, in the past few years, Uncle Zhu has been leading the villagers to help our family. Your mother's funeral affair was also helped by Uncle Zhu Zhang Luo. ”
Guoda Road was honest and filial piety, and gave a big gift to the old village chief Zhu, and the old village chief Zhu was busy supporting him: "It's all a person from the village, and the matter of taking the handle, thank you for coming and going, but you have seen the outside." Guo Jin, you don't have anything in this shabby house, and your son doesn't even have a place to sleep. In this way, I will make a bed for your son, and in a few days, I will call a few more people to help you repair the house, and from now on, your father and son will live a good life. ”
Guoda Lu secretly twitched his face -- he actually used the coffin board as a bed for himself to sleep on? Isn't this disgusting!
Guoda Road is a misunderstanding, the ancients attached the most importance to life and death, there are two most important beds in life, one is the marriage bed when you get married, and the other is the coffin after death - the coffin is also a bed.
This coffin is usually made of the best wood, cut down early, put it in a ventilated place to dry, once a year on tung oil, wait until their legs stretch, when buried, the wood with a finger knock, the sound is like gold and jade, this is a good life village, not let the villagers of ten miles and eight towns give a thumbs up, boasting "with such longevity is really a blessing".
The coffin that the old village chief Zhu found for Guo Jin, although it was not the top nanmu and rosewood, was also a good cypress, and it was used as a bed for Guoda Road, which still took advantage of this kid.
The other villagers also said a word, one said to send a bed, the other said to bring some food, and some people said that they had all the work in the Guo family's fields in the past few days--
The simple emotions of the villagers moved Guoda Road very much, and they had to thank them again, at this time, the girl had already boiled the brown sugar water, and lay an egg in it, and helped Guo Jin to eat, Guo Jin's spirit was a little better.
Speaking of which, half of Guo Jin's illness is a cold and fever, and half is a heart disease, his son has been lost for more than 10 years and there is no news, his mother-in-law left early, he is alone and bored, his heart is like ashes, a little rain, he was dragged into a serious illness, and he almost died.
The big girl is considerate, seeing Guo Jinqiang supporting his body, Guoda Road's spirit is also a little sluggish, and she talks in a slurred way - in fact, Guoda Road is weak-hearted, for fear that any of his words will leak out of the stuffing - and hurriedly said: "Uncle Guo, then you can rest well, we will come to see you tomorrow." ”
She was just about to leave, and at a glance she saw that the clothes on the shoulders of Guoda Road were blooming, but it turned out that Guoda Lu was hanging up by a tree branch when she was fighting with the giant python in Fengshen Mountain, and she stretched out her hand generously: "Brother Guo, you can change your clothes, I will take these broken clothes to help you mend them." ”
Under Guo Jin's guidance, Guo Dalu found a piece of Guo Jin's own change of clothes from a broken box at the foot of the bed, changed the torn clothes, and handed it to the girl.
Old Village Chief Zhu and others also said goodbye one by one.
Guo Jin was really tired, took Guoda Road's hand, and fell asleep.
I don't know when, the torch was extinguished, and Guoda Road was stunned for a long time, and finally couldn't hold it anymore, leaning on the head of the bed, snoring.
After the big girl returned home, she saw that Brother Hao'er and her father didn't sleep, and Brother Hao's father's name Li Ruhai, he asked: "Big girl, your Uncle Guo is really sick?"
The eldest girl nodded: "It's really good, I touched his hand, the fever subsided, and I bent myself and chatted with the village chief." ”
Niang Chen put her hands together beside her: "It's really blessed by the gods from all walks of life." Alas, the Guo family is bitter, and now that the long-lost son is back, the father and son should also live in peace, but it's a pity that the Guo family's mother-in-law didn't survive to this day, it's all fate. ”
Li Ruhai thought more, he shook his head: "This is really called fate, the boy of the Guo family, he lost it for more than 10 years, and now he is suddenly coming back, no one knows where he is and what hard life he has lived for more than 10 years." It's a pity that Guo Jin is blind, otherwise, he doesn't know how happy he should be when he sees his son growing tall and big now. ”
The eldest girl suddenly said: "Although I don't know where Brother Guo has been for more than 10 years, I think he has not lived a hard life." Don't look at other people's tan, but when a pair of hands stretches out, they are thin skin and tender meat, like a scholar in the city, not the hands of a coolie who does rough work. ”
The eldest girl spread the clothes in her hand: "Look, this is the clothes worn by Brother Guo, it is torn, I will use it to help him sew it, just now on the road, I touched it, although this dress is full of patches, but this material is something I have never seen." ”
The clothes on Guoda Road were changed by him from modern people's clothes, the materials are cotton, hemp, nylon, and more importantly, the dyeing of modern clothes is not at all comparable to the homespun cloth of the ancients, the colors are bright and diverse, and they will not fade.
When Chen's farming is not working, he often goes to the town to help big families wash clothes, and then he looks at the oil lamp, and he is stunned, the material on the clothes is one piece in the east and one in the west, and the size is not formed, but the colors and patterns on it are all things she has never seen.
She stretched out her hand and carefully stroked the pattern on one of the nylon cloths: "This, how did this flower embroider it—Grandpa, this flower is not embroidered, it is woven when weaving!
