Era: I have a two-world door

Chapter 16, Going to the city to see a doctor (seeking investment, seeking further reading)
  Wang Qingsong felt happy when he heard the sound.

Although his sight range was very short, only two or three meters due to malnutrition, he knew who was coming.

"Auntie, it must be Zhang Mazi. Only he will come out at this time."

The Zhang Mazi he mentioned was the consignment point set up by the supply and marketing cooperative in the brigade.

I collect local specialties and sell some basic rural supplies such as oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, needles, thread, and brains. I usually go to the commune to purchase them.

really.

After a while, I saw a donkey cart with a lantern hanging on it, slowly approaching.

"Appreciate~"

When he came closer, before they could say anything, Zhang Mazi stopped and said with a smile: "What are you doing?"

They were all from the same team, and he basically knew everyone.

Wang Qingsong smiled when he saw this and said: "Uncle Zhang, we are going to the city to see a doctor. Can you take us to the main road? Let's take the bus there."

"Okay! Come on up."

It's all a brigade, it's just a matter of passing by, and we have to pass by anyway.

"Hey, thank you, Uncle Zhang!"

Wang Qingsong quickly thanked them and pulled the two people onto the cart behind the donkey cart.

"Sit down, let's go! der~~drive~~"

Zhang Mazi warned, shouted, and drove the donkey cart forward.

The donkey cart jolted toward the main road.

But just after taking a few steps, the donkey stopped.

Zhang Mazi quickly jumped out of the donkey cart, skillfully took out a wooden bucket from the side and placed it behind the donkey's butt.

"Thump~thump~"

Tuts of black feces fell into the bucket, and there was a smell of urine.

Upon seeing this, Zhang Mazi laughed and scolded: "The lazy donkey is grinding and peeing a lot. It has only been out for a long time! It started to poop."

It is not surprising that several of them are from rural areas.

They were all smiling there.

When it was almost done, the donkey snorted and began to stir. Zhang Mazi then lifted the barrel and hung it on the right front of the car.

Then he drove the car forward.

There were only two miles left, and after three to five minutes of walking, we soon reached the main road.

"Okay, I can only send you here, I still have to go to the commune!"

"Thank you, Uncle Zhang~"

Wang Qingsong still said thank you.

The other party was polite and left in the donkey cart.

It was already getting slightly brighter at this time.

Wang Qingsong looked at the sky and smiled and said: "Auntie, don't worry, the car leaves from the county at six o'clock and it will take about half past six to get here. It will probably take a while."

After estimating the time, it should be less than five o'clock.

In other words, it was already three or four o'clock when they got up, and Xiao Zao got up earlier.

There is no way, the watch ticket is too expensive, it costs dozens of dollars, and it also requires tickets.

Very rare.

Widow Feng smiled and nodded: "It's okay. I'll be fine after a while. I'll just take a rest. This is because I'm not feeling well anymore. If I usually just walk across this road on my legs, why would I need to take a car!"

Wang Qingsong smiled.

Widow Feng still refuses to admit defeat!

But what can I do if I don’t admit defeat? My body can’t support it!

The three of them stamped their feet and breathed, waiting quietly in the cold and dark night.

Wang Qingsong thought of going to the hospital to prescribe soybeans, which seemed to depend on the situation.

So he told his little sister: "Mai Mai, when you go there, remember to keep your voice low and sound weak, like you're panting when you move, do you hear me?"

As for Widow Feng, there is no need to teach her.

This is considered very serious for her.

When Xiaomai heard this, he was confused for a while: "Why? What does it mean to be weak?"

"Just do it as you are told, do you hear me?"

Wang Qingsong explained it and said: "Being weak is just...that's what it is...Ouch."

After saying that, his eyes were blurred and he looked like he was about to die.

Seeing this, Xiaomai laughed loudly: "Brother, you look like you are about to die!"

"Hey, that's right."

Widow Feng next to her also smiled when she saw this scene.

Then Wang Qingsong started teaching there.

Although Xiaomai doesn't understand, he is still learning it seriously.

The three of them waited for more than an hour. It was already dawn, and a blue and white car slowly drove over.

Wang Qingsong waved, and the other party stopped.

When the car door opened, I heard the conductor shouting: "Hurry up, hurry up, it's freezing to death."

The three of them filed in after hearing this.

The car is not big and can only seat fifteen or six people. There are only five or six people in the car at this time.

The car started to move before they could sit in it.

The three of us found a seat closer to each other and sat down, and the conductor came over.

"Where?"

"Fuchengmen."

"Twenty-eight cents per person. Did you bring your student ID? It's fifty-six cents in total."

"Bring it, bring it." He knew that it was cheaper for students to take the bus, but he didn't expect that the younger sister didn't ask for a ticket. After all, he had never taken her to the city.

He gave her the ID and the other party charged him 44 cents.

Saved another amount of money.

Then he sat there happily.

Thinking that I didn't know the road yet, I asked, "Comrade, let me ask you something. Where is the big hospital near Fuchengmen?"

"Oh, Baita Temple! It's only two miles away from the station. It's one of the best hospitals in Sijiu City."

Wang Qingsong hurriedly asked: "How to get there?"

"When you get to the station, just walk east along Fuchengmen Outer Street. On Fuchengmen Inner Street, just ask around on the way."

"Hey, okay, thank you!"

Wang Qingsong smiled, thanked him, and returned to his seat.

I looked at the other people sitting in the car. They were all sallow and thin.

It was more than 30 miles, with stops and starts on the road, and there were some potholes on the road, so the speed was not very fast.

Along the way, there were construction sites everywhere, a scene of things waiting to be done.

But the people working inside are all weak.

Not to mention staggering around, it's not much better.

Forty minutes later, everyone got on and off the bus on the road at the station entrance.

"Just go straight ahead and you'll be there!"

Before leaving, the conductor did not forget to point out the direction to him.

Wang Qingsong had been here when he went to his second brother and eldest brother, so he naturally understood what the conductor meant.

Looking at the tall city gate building not far away, he said to Widow Feng: "Aunt, let's go. It's just in front. It's about two miles away. Let's go and ask on the way."

Hearing this, Widow Feng nodded.

The three of them slowly walked towards the city gate building.

It took the three of them about ten minutes to walk along the two-hundred-meter-long city gate.

Many horse-drawn carriages and donkey-carts came in and out of the large arched hole in the tower.

All animals are wrapped in a cloth bag at the back.

"Brother, what is that for? Why is the mule's butt covered with cloth? Are the mules in the city so expensive?"

Mai pointed at the mule cart that just passed by and asked curiously,

Wang Qingsong took one look at it and smiled and said: "City people pay attention to hygiene. Otherwise, if animals poop and urinate in the city, they wrap a dung bag so that they can catch it and use it as fertilizer when they go back."

"Oh~"

Wheat suddenly realized.

When we entered the city, we saw a lot of people coming and going on the roadside.

"Brother, the clothes they wear are so beautiful."

Xiaomai looked at the clothes worn by the women passing by and felt envious for a while.

Wang Qingsong took a look. He originally felt that the people in the city were white and clean, and the clothes they wore made him envious, but in his mind he thought of the girl he met that day.
  Suddenly I felt that these people were all ugly ducklings.

Then he smiled and comforted: "We will also wear such nice clothes in the future."

In fact, in terms of the clothes they wear, their family was really good in the past. Not to mention in the production team, they were famous throughout the entire brigade.

Because he has a big brother.

He also gave me a lot of old clothes in the city.

However, when my father was alive, there were many people in the family, so they were divided among the whole family. When the eldest brother couldn't hold on anymore during difficult times, he didn't give any old clothes.

This has been three years.

But after my second brother got married last year, he got a lot of old clothes and shoes.

Naturally, Dad used it as an excuse to take care of the family, and everyone gave him points again.

This resulted in the two of them having nothing to wear "new clothes".

These new clothes are naturally the old clothes given by the second brother. They are considered old clothes in the city, but in the countryside they are at the level of new clothes.

The concrete pavement is brightly dressed, with tall lofts and newly built cement shops on both sides.

All of them attract the wheat who comes to the city for the first time.

"Brother, there are so many houses made of cement in the city! And this road is made of cement! It's so clean!"

Mai pointed at the concrete houses and cement pavement on the roadside and sighed.

Wang Qingsong nodded: "Well, they are all made of cement. When can we live in a house like this?"

He was also filled with envy and emotion.

Several people walked around and asked around, and finally found the so-called Baitasi Hospital at a four-way intersection.

A five-story building, clean and tidy grounds, and greenery all around.

The three of them stood at the door and watched for a while.

Kyoto City People's Hospital

The name is not Baita Temple, but because this place used to be Baita Temple, the people nearby are accustomed to calling it Baita Temple.

"Let's go in, Mai Xiao, you will remember what brother said later, did you hear it?"

Before Wang Qingsong went in, he explained to Xiaomai.

Wheat nodded quickly, showing a weak expression, but it looked a little weird.

Widow Feng also smiled when she saw this.

"You'd better stop pretending like this. Just pretend to be sleepy."

Hearing this, Xiaomai thought for a while and looked at the third brother.

Seeing him nod, his expression immediately changed again.

Seeing this expression, Wang Qingsong smiled and said: "Hey, yes, just this expression, remember not to reveal your secrets! It's up to you whether you can get anything good. It would be great if you can get a few kilograms of soybeans and eggs. .”

Then the three of them walked inside.
