The leisurely life of rebirth.

Cheng Shigui and the others saw that the family was busy and fulfilled, and felt that since the matter was resolved, it was time to go back. They didn't want to be seen as rare animals, so they planned to leave.

Grandma hastily prepared a lot of food for them, everything that one expects to find.Especially seeing that they like to eat all kinds of side dishes and game pickled by Fang Monan. Grandma brought them ten small jars.There are many fruits and special products in various spaces.

Cheng Shigui whispered to her: "No wonder 'Sister Nan' is reluctant to leave. It seems that these things are not available anywhere else." Some of them have not had time to taste, but since he ate them, he comes to rob them every year around Christmas and before New Year's Day. , and take away more and more each time.

"'Sister Nan' install the phone as soon as possible, we can discuss urgent matters." These were the last words they said before they left.

Watching their car disappear at the intersection, the whole family went back.Grandma grabbed Fang Monan and asked: "This really needs to install a phone!" [

"It's convenient for us to communicate at work, grandma, why don't we pretend!" Fang Monan thought that he would use it a lot in the future.

"It's too eye-catching! In addition to a few public offices in our county, there are no private telephones." Grandma frowned and said, "If you want to install it, you have to find a good excuse, and you can't spread rumors because of it, especially for our steamed bun stall. .”

"The fact that they came here in such a blatant way, and drove such a car, is probably spread by now. You can tell the outside world that for the sake of communication between relatives, they left money for us to install."

"Hmm! Just say that to the outside world." The grandma thought for a while, and for the sake of her granddaughter, the phone had to be settled.

Cheng Shigui and the others came in a hurry, and before people reacted, they left in a hurry, leaving only people's imaginative bragging.

They had just left by car when the eldest aunt, whom they hadn't seen for a long time, came to visit suddenly, what a rare visitor!Not to mention the previous life, after Fang Monan's rebirth, except for when she secretly met her and wanted to take advantage of it, she only saw her come to the door.Why this time?

In fact, the eldest aunt didn't want to come either, she had already heard a lot of words from outside, and wanted to ask the baby's father to ask about the situation, whether there were really wealthy relatives, but I heard that they came in a car, but he refused to come in a daze , The two even quarreled over this, but they failed.Although she is eating free steamed buns now, it is still far behind the real banknotes. For money, ah!It's not for understanding the situation, whether it's true or not, in short, if you have a nose and eyes, you have to come and take a look.I had no choice but to go into battle by myself.

The eldest aunt was standing in the yard, just as grandma was not at home, and everyone else was busy in the kitchen!When my aunt saw her coming, she blocked the door and didn't let her in. She said sourly, "Tsk tsk... What a surprise, the sun has risen from the west. You are a busy person, why did you come to our place?" She continued to mock Said: "Isn't it that she came to get the steamed buns in person? My mother also runs a small business, but she can't stand the shameless people who eat for nothing."

"Hehe...Xiaoyan! I heard that a nobleman has come to our house, driving a black car." She said with a smile, and she didn't know what kind of sweet talk my aunt was talking about. The sarcasm turned a deaf ear, and she just pretended not to hear it. Compared with the banknotes, sister-in-law's sour words couldn't hurt her at all.

"That's my mother's relative, what does it have to do with you!" Auntie spoke bluntly and excluded her.

After listening to the words, she rubbed her hands in embarrassment, and said with patience: "How can I say it, it has nothing to do with me, aren't we a family!"

My aunt didn't want to talk nonsense with her anymore, let alone look at her disgusting face, so she said it directly. "One family, one family will slander others behind their backs; one family, forget it and tell you these things, what are you doing? You came late, and people left."

"What! People left, you didn't say it earlier, let me stay here with... Smiley. Why are you so relieved." She looked at her aunt dissatisfied, but she didn't dare to speak too loudly, for fear of being heard. "Hehe...then I'll go first." She left in a hurry. In fact, she had achieved her goal and confirmed that there were indeed relatives at home. As for whether she had money or not, the father had to come forward.

"Hmph..." Auntie turned around and saw Fang Monan, and immediately changed into a smiling face. "What is Nan Nan doing here!"

"I came back from the toilet." Fang Monan replied.

"I saw it just now." Auntie looked disdainful.

"Well! I've seen it all, the charm of money." Fang Monan said, otherwise, how could I meet my aunt!

My aunt thought about it after hearing this, and she was really right, she was really shameless.You must tell her mother about this, and get vaccinated properly.

After Cheng Shigui left, the Post and Telecommunications Bureau came to the house to install the telephone in the afternoon, and the running water was installed soon.Two days later, the contractor of the barren mountain also signed the contract, and the contract was signed by my mother. [

The eldest uncle couldn't stand the noise from his wife and son, so he had to lick his face. "Mom, where's the meal?" He stood outside the threshold and asked awkwardly.

"Yonghui is here, have you eaten! Come in and eat!" Grandma greeted.

"Hey!" The uncle came in, looked at the gloomy face of the aunt, and thought of 'business' again, "Ah! I ate it at home." He walked to the Eight Immortals table, pointed at the TV and said with a smile: "Is this the TV? It’s still colorful, so pretty.”

When my aunt heard what he said, she was afraid that grandma would get hotheaded, so she hurriedly said: "This is for honoring our mother!" Afraid that he would not understand, she said bluntly: "It is not for you." Anyway, the two brothers and sisters have a grudge In this life, she didn't intend to untie it.The wicked will become the wicked.

Grandma muttered, her eyes darkened, and she didn't say anything in the end?

My mother glared at my aunt, "What are you talking about! Brother is not that kind of person!" My mother's words were even more ruthless, my mother is mighty!

"Yes! Dayan is right, look at what Xiaoyan said, I don't know that filial piety is the first thing!" The uncle blushed and said for a long time.

Aunt Leng'huh! ' With a cry, turn your face away from him.

Grandma continued to follow Fang Monan's script despite her embarrassment, but everyone has left, so you have to see the talent for any benefit!You can't really carry back to your own home the things that others honor to the old lady, that will really puncture your spine.He said some words that didn't hurt or itch, and had no choice but to leave slowly.

After he left, the atmosphere was a bit chilly, Fang Monan turned on the TV, "Grandma, look quickly, you can buy the clothes they are wearing in Liang Zi's store." After making jokes, the original atmosphere in the room was restored.

**************************

After Cheng Shigui and the others left, the days passed peacefully. With the arrival of TV, Fang Monan and the others had a much richer evening life, but there were very few entertainment programs at this time, or even almost none.Most of the time, everyone watches the news broadcasts, and there are very few TV dramas. They still maintain their own entertainment methods every night.

Fang Mobei played the newly bought violin, very happy.

On New Year's Day, my dad came back from vacation. I haven't seen him for almost a year since he left for the Spring Festival.Fang Monan saw that he was smiling all over his face, that he was having a good life.

Dad wanted to talk about the 14-inch black and white TV he bought, but when he saw the 18-inch imported color TV at home, he was speechless.

Grandma rescued in time, "This TV is a gift from my grandson."

"Our mother's grandson? What's going on!" Dad looked at grandma curiously. After not coming back for a few days, the family changed again, which was too fast.

"Oh! This..." His mother cleared up his doubts, and changed the subject by the way, instead of talking about the embarrassing topic of his father.

But my dad was very nervous, and afterwards he acted like a normal person, "no grudges", and took out an old-fashioned Shanghai-made seagull camera as a gift.This was originally prepared when they were asked to go to the capital to play last summer, but they didn't go, but they had already bought it, so they had to bring it back. "Just right, you can take a family portrait."

My mother took out the couple's watch as a gift, "Ah! Such a beautiful watch, where did it come from?" Dad asked.

"Cousin, I gave it to you. We all have it." My mother said, "Come to Zhengping and try it."

"It's so beautiful." Dad put on the smug beauty and said, "Is this real gold?" He asked suspiciously. [

"18k gold." Fang Monan said.

"Oh! You can't wear this, it attracts thieves. Especially now that there are a lot of idlers on the street, and the law and order has become worse. Let's wait and see!" Dad, take it off, put it in the watch box and cover it, Give it to mom for safekeeping.

"It's time to put it away. There are no outside thieves, so I'm afraid to walk around it and show respect to others." Mom said sourly.

"Hehe...how can it be! You won't be allowed to put it away!" My father hurriedly turned his eyes away in embarrassment and asked, "What is the origin of our relative, so rich?"

Grandma said it again in detail, and told me not to talk nonsense outside.

After Han Zhiqian went back, there were a lot of brand new ready-made clothes in the package, both for adults and children.Really!Fang Monan shook her head, she declined in the reply letter, the city was already full of trouble, and now she was wearing these bright clothes, so as not to arouse the jealousy of others.

Fang Monan remembered a little story: a man met God, and God said to him: "Now I can grant any of your wishes, but while fulfilling your wishes, your neighbors will get double benefits from you. For example, if you want a piece of farmland, your neighbor will get two pieces of farmland, and if you want a house, your neighbor will get two houses.”As a result, this person was not reconciled to his neighbor taking advantage of it for nothing, and finally he said to God, "gouge out one of my eyes." After thinking about it, the person in the story finally came up with such an incredible answer,

The problem of pink eye disease is human nature, people are always full of jealousy, the real society is like this, you can’t see others better than yourself, everyone is at the same level, there is nothing to say, if suddenly one person surpasses everyone, then everything can be listened to arrive.

Standing out from the crowd, the crane is more uncomfortable than the chicken, it has to bear a lot of pressure from the group, and there is a price to pay for being outstanding, so the outstanding ones often need self-protection ability.So keep it at this level for the time being, and don't overdo it.

After New Year's Day and taking photos, my dad stayed even busier. I thought it would be easier because high school was on winter vacation.Unexpectedly, the Chinese New Year is not far away, and there are more and more people going to the fairs in the surrounding area.Every day, dads and the others hit the back of their heads with their busy feet, but the rewards brought by their hard work made them grin from ear to ear, tired and happy.

Fang Monan ran around with his camera in his spare time, and sometimes even followed his father to the market, 'click, click', leaving souvenirs.Sometimes I take a charcoal pen and sketch this happy picture, and I can also practice my painting skills. Of course, it is at most a souvenir for my family.

In a blink of an eye, it is the year-end summary. Grandma has earned more this year than last year, smiling like a flower.Although the steamed bun business declined at the beginning due to following the trend, it gradually picked up again, adding cabbage pork buns (4000 cents each) and Hanamaki varieties. After careful calculation, the income from steamed buns and steamed buns alone is about [-] yuan.Of course, she hasn't told anyone about the money in Fang Monan's passbook until now, not even her daughter. There is too much money, and she is afraid to scare them.

Although grandma is uneducated, she has experienced a lot. Perhaps as my granddaughter said, people who have money are not necessarily happy. Only when they know what they want, money can become a tool for them to achieve their goals. Before that, see With a young daughter and son-in-law, it's better to practice more.It seems that it is better for Nan Nan to say these things himself.

Of course, my grandma can also see that as my granddaughter, I don't want too many people to see her different side from ordinary people. What she sees is her side like her parents acting like a baby, enjoying their love.This also determines that she will not reveal more things to them.

On the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month, my grandma summed up her life for the year and her income increased. She prepared ten new cotton quilts early in the winter and replaced them with new ones for the whole family.I took four of them for my dad. When my mom and the others got married, my grandma's family was so poor that they didn't even have a quilt prepared, so there was a surplus of money. This was the first thing she thought of making up for it.

The family really felt that the family had changed a lot. Everyone had happy smiles on their faces, looking forward to a better year ahead.

********************************

On the 24th of the twelfth lunar month, it was Fang Monan and Liang Zi's turn to summarize the year.

Liang Zi said with some embarrassment: "Nannan, you don't know, our store is relatively hot in the first half a year, especially in the county, it has become more and more difficult in the past few months. The sales of the store are only 3 to [-] a month. Yuan, this is still me carrying a bag and selling it in various units in the city, and I can’t sell it for a few thousand yuan. I am really worried that if this continues, we will close the business.” “The only thing that comforts me is the clothing business.”

The thin monkey and the fat man also nodded and said: "Yes, business is a bit difficult. There are more sellers in the provincial capital, so it turns out that there is no one."

"Well, this is normal. The market in the county is already saturated, and there are also competitors in the provincial capital, so the sales will naturally drop." Fang Monan said, "We took a chance. At that time, no one had seen foreign goods, so let's get them in. Everyone is interested, so they buy more. Now everyone is used to it, and it is no longer new. In counties and cities, state-owned factories are not profitable, which naturally affects purchasing power. Although there are greenhouse vegetables and breeding industries in rural areas, but now In the developing stage, farmers are still afraid to buy these 'luxury goods'."

"Nannan, I want to discuss with you. There are more unemployed youths and idlers in the county or in the city. It is dangerous for us to go out to sell, after all, we are too eye-catching. So we plan to wholesale goods, so that in No one on our three-acre land dares to make trouble." Liang Zi said.

"Hmm! Last time I went to a county, I met a gangster robbing, and I got into a fight with him..." The fat man was kicked twice by the thin monkey while he was talking about his 'great achievements'.

"Why are you kicking me! I haven't talked about the wonderful things yet!" The fat man looked at the thin monkey dissatisfied and said, seeing the thin monkey pointing at Fang Monan, he suddenly hehe...smirked.

"Okay, I won't let you go out to cause trouble, but you can't be bullied anymore. Is the fat man injured?" Fang Monan asked worriedly, pretending not to see the two's small movements.

"No...no..., that kid couldn't help beating, how could he survive my fist. I beat him three times, five times and two times." The fat man remembered the situation at that time, with a look of regret, and blamed the other party for not being strong. , so that he did not enjoy playing.

"Okay, let's do as you said, divide the money, and we can get it wholesale in a few days. It's almost Chinese New Year, don't go out anymore." After Fang Monan finished speaking, he divided the money, and everyone got nearly 5 yuan.

"Brother...Brother Liang Zi, is my brother there?" Fang Monan and the others were about to disperse when they heard someone shouting outside.

"Xiaomei, your eldest brother is at my house! Come in!" Liang Zi opened the door and said.

Xiaomei rushed in, pulled Pang Haihai and left, "Brother, hurry home, our mother has passed out."

"What's the matter, who is she?" Before Fang Monan could see clearly who was there, Fatty and she ran out.

"It's Pan Xiaomei, Fatty's younger sister. It looks like Fatty's mother is ill again." The thin monkey said worriedly.

"Hey! Fat lady wasn't seriously ill at first, but unfortunately she was delayed because her family was poor." Liang Zi worriedly said, "Skinny Monkey, let's go too and see if we can help."

"Nannan, go home first!" Liang Zi said to her.

"Liangzi, have you forgotten your shoulder?" Fang Monan reminded.

"Ah! You...you can heal." Liang Zi said in amazement, "Yes! My shoulder was cured by you. This is Mrs. Pan's illness..."

"We'll talk about it after seeing the patient," Fang Monan said.

"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go!" Liang Zi and the others rode bicycles, carrying Fang Monan on their backs, and headed towards Fatty's house together.

When Fang Monan went to the fat man's house, he went home first and took the medicine box to cover his eyes.This medicine box is taken out of the space, made of gloomy wood, anti-corrosion, dark brown medicine box, looks like an old antique that is often used, giving people a heavy and reassuring feeling.

Liang Zi carried the medicine box on his back, rode a bicycle, and led Fang Monan to the edge of the city.

It was the first time for Fang Monan to come to Fatty's house. His house is in the countryside next to the county town, and it takes only 20 minutes to ride a bicycle. In the small yard of the down-and-out farmhouse, there is also a greenhouse to grow vegetables, and the chickens can be heard in the backyard. However, it is clear that the life at home has not been significantly improved.

The main house is three adobe houses. After entering, the walls have not been painted white, and the soil and straw are exposed.The house was also made of unhardened yellow mud, full of potholes, like the surface of the moon, which had only been tamped down by people walking for a long time.The furniture is only a small square table for eating, which seems to be made by myself, and a few small wooden benches made by myself.There is also an advertisement for the feed factory on the dusty wall, just to check the date.

When Liang Zi and the others opened the door curtain and entered the room, they saw the fat man going out with his mother on his back.

"Put it down, put it down quickly, let's take a look first." Liang Zi said.

"Brother, this can't be delayed. We have to go to the hospital." Fatty said quickly after hearing what he said.

"Put it down first, it's not too late here. You forgot who healed my arm. I brought the doctor." Liang Zi put the medicine box on the bed, and walked over to help put the fat lady (fat aunt) back on the bed. bed.

Fang Monan saw that the fat man's mother's lower limbs were already in the late stage of vasculitis, and her legs had ulcers due to severe blood circulation disorders, which had spread up to the ankle joints or calves.The severe pain made her faint.

"Nannan, let's see if it can be cured?" Liang Zi stepped aside and let Fang Monan come to the bedside.Then she said to the fat man and the thin monkey: "She healed my shoulder injury." To reassure Pang Dahai's heart.

When the fat man heard Liang Zi's words, he felt relieved. He once heard the old stubborn man say that the person who treated Liang Zi's injuries was very skilled in medicine.

Fang Monan walked over, "Bring the scissors, and warm up the room."

"Oh!" The fat man hurriedly brought the scissors, and his sister hurriedly lit up the fire, but when she thought it was impossible, she went to bring the charcoal basin again.

Soon the room warmed up, Fang Monan took scissors and cut her two trousers to the knee joints, Liang Zi and the others gasped.Both legs were swollen black and purple, and some places began to fester.

The fat man looked at her expectantly and asked: "Can it be cured? The doctor said severe venous thrombosis and suggested amputation, but my mother refused to agree. It's okay to start taking medicine first. I don't know when it's just a foot. I didn't think of it later." He choked up and couldn't continue.

"Fatty, thin monkey, go out and boil a large pot of hot water, Xiaomei, and find some clean gauze, best for medical use, and alcohol." Fang Monan ordered.

Fatty and the others knew it could be cured as soon as they heard what she said, so they ran out quickly.

Fang Monan saw them leaving, "Liang Zi guards the door for me, remember not to let them in."

"Okay! Got it, don't worry!" Liang Zi stood at the door, looking at her.

Fang Monan put the wooden box on the bed. There was not even a decent table at home. He stretched out his hand and pressed the flower bone on the box surface, and there was a "click", and the box split a crack from the side.

Ordinary wooden boxes are opened and closed up and down, with the lid on the top and the body on the bottom, but Fang Monan's box is opened and closed from the left and right. The box is first separated from one side, and after being unfolded 180 degrees, it is wrapped around the other side. The vertical axis on the side is integrated into a small vertical cabinet, as if we opened a book and then stood the opened book upright on the table.

The vertical cabinet is divided into upper, middle and lower layers. On the upper layer, there are more than ten white porcelain vases, which are directly embedded in the concave base, so that there will be no shaking; the lower two layers are drawers, and the middle layer is four. There is a small drawer, and below it are two larger drawers.

This kind of box is called a medical treasure box, which is an object that doctors carried with them when they went out to see a doctor in ancient times.The white porcelain bottles on the upper floor are usually filled with trauma medicines and some first-aid medicines for bringing the dead back to life; the four small drawers in the middle are used for needle stones, acupuncture, cupping and other equipment; , used to write prescriptions, and another one to hold dry food and medical books for emergencies. In ancient times, transportation was inconvenient. Sometimes it took several days for a doctor to go out for a visit.

When he got this box, Fang Monan couldn't put it down, it's really a good thing.After she sterilized the acupuncture needles, she looked at the unconscious patient and just used the needles.She took off her shoes first, climbed onto the bed, and took off the patient's top. The skinny upper body obviously didn't match the lower limbs.

She quickly pricked the patient's whole body with silver needles, and then she sat on the bed. Unexpectedly, although the patient's bed was broken, it was washed white and very clean.Taking the patient's wrist pulse, he began to stimulate the aura to swim towards the patient's legs.

Fang Monan peeped into the affected area through spiritual energy, and found that the thrombus was seriously blocked, and it seemed that it took a lot of effort.She took a deep breath and increased the transmission of spiritual energy.
