Doomsday Paradise

Chapter 9 The House
"Don't believe me, I have a hunch that the sun won't shine, so be careful." Father Qiao still opened the fan and fell on the bed.

Mother Qiao sighed, "This kid, why didn't you discuss it with your family and quit your job? You know how difficult it is to find a good job now. The kid from the old grandson's family in the building next to him is giving gifts again for a job. It's a treat, and it's just a temporary worker. Isn't the girl from Ma Fu's family also working in the south, and there is no guarantee. It will be difficult to get married in the future. Why is Wei Wei so impulsive? Why don't we put up our old faces and find someone , Let Wei Wei go to your school to teach? With Wei Wei's level, it must be no problem."

Father Qiao turned his back on Mother Qiao, closed his eyes and said, "Let's wait and see, let's get her body recuperated first. If it's really necessary for work, I'll go find a relationship."

After listening to the assurance, Mother Qiao also lay down in peace, thinking about which hospital to take her to tomorrow, and if it doesn't work, she will go to an outside clinic. I heard that the pulse diagnosis at the one near the post office is very good.

Qiao Miwei, who had been digging a hole all night and was so tired and sound asleep, didn't know that her itinerary for tomorrow had already been set by Qiao's mother.

Early the next morning, Qiao Miwei was pulled up by Qiao's mother. After getting dressed, she went straight to the hospital without even bothering to eat breakfast. She registered and waited in line. When it was Qiao Miwei's turn, she She was about to fall asleep, and Qiao Miwei had a slight hypotension. Skipping breakfast in the morning was a trap for her. When she entered, she was already in a daze.

The old Chinese doctor narrowed his eyes and looked at Qiao Miwei's face, and asked her to stretch out her arm, then closed her eyes and gave her pulse, and switched to the other arm after a while. After a long time, the old Chinese doctor observed again Qiao Mi turned her face slightly for a long time, and then let out a long breath, "You baby, don't you have a good rest at night?"

Qiao Mi nodded slightly, "It's been more than half a year."

"Dreams, sweating easily, physical fatigue."

Joey nodded slightly.

"It doesn't matter, you haven't dreamed these two days, have you? Did you sleep well last night?"

Qiao Mi thought for a moment, sure enough, because of too frequent nightmares, these days suddenly disappeared, she didn't notice, and the quality of sleep has improved significantly recently, she fell asleep until dawn, she continued to nod.

"Don't worry, it's all right now, work harder, drink more water, eat more, it's all right." The old Chinese doctor's words were nonsense, and Qiao's mother was stunned, "Doctor, didn't you just say that she has a lot of problems? , no need to take medicine?"

The old Chinese doctor nodded, "No need, it's fine as it is."

Because Qiao Miwei was busy collecting supplies, she didn't have time to think about her body. After hearing what the doctor said today, she also felt that this was good. After digging a hole for a few days, she obviously felt that her physical fitness was increasing. If it continues like this , don't be too strong!
Mother Qiao didn't want it anymore. We came to see a doctor. Why didn't we let us take medicine when we were here? We didn't say anything about the illness. Thinking of this, my expression showed dissatisfaction.

The old Chinese doctor understood at a glance, and he was not annoyed. He said cheerfully, "This girl has a heart disease. Now that the heart disease is gone, other diseases are nothing. The rest is a little low blood pressure. Eat more, eat well, work harder, increase your appetite, and you will be fine, after all, you are young."

After seeing off Qiao's mother and daughter, the old Chinese doctor sat in his original position, closed his eyes and thought, "What a big deal, is something really going to happen? Why are you always in shock."

The assistant asked from the side, "Master, what's the matter, what's the big deal?"

The old Chinese doctor smiled, "I've been practicing medicine for so many years, and this is the first time I've seen a short-lived and extended life."

The assistant was surprised, "The face you mentioned?"

The old Chinese doctor nodded, "That's right, that's the one just now."

The assistant reminded in a low voice, "You are always a Chinese medicine practitioner."

"Hmph." The old Chinese doctor disdainfully said, "Chinese medicine doesn't distinguish faces, the young man is still too young, he still needs to practice."

The assistant replied foolishly, "Oh."

After leaving the hospital, the mother and daughter dressed up, took a taxi and went straight to the vegetable market. Mother Qiao said, "Buy a chicken and two catties of beef. I'll make up for you these few days."

Qiao Miwei pulled the mask on his face, "Mom, I feel pretty good now, just eat normally, and carefully patched it up for me."

Mother Qiao quit, "You have always been too determined since you were young. I used to think it was good. How could you know that you are so bold, and you quit your job as soon as you said it. You know how hard it is to find a good job now. Many people in our unit envy you As for the job, the child of your Aunt Liu's family couldn't find a job outside after graduation, and she called her back to teach, and she didn't have an establishment, even temporary workers. Hey, it's useless to say you, since it's already like this, these Take care of your body at home every day, let your dad find someone for you for work, and come back to teach."

Qiao Miwei sighed inwardly, and didn't refute anymore, she just said what she said, and when she looked up to meet the driver's gaze, she actually saw sympathy in the driver's eyes.

The vegetable market is always noisy, but fortunately there is a big dome here, and they can take off their hats and masks after entering. Even so, it was still hot and sweated a little. Mother Qiao instantly turned into a girl when she entered the vegetable market. Superman, he pulled Qiao Miwei's arm and dived into the crowd. His eyes were shining, and he could find out which one had fresh food and which one had a fair price. He caught a hen and bought two catties of mutton. One catty of beef, another two catties of tomatoes, ten catties of eggs, and they didn't stop until their hands were full of bags.

Originally, Qiao Miwei had to pay when buying vegetables, but was stopped by Qiao's mother, "You don't have a job now, don't spend money extravagantly, this order of food money can still make you spend money." Mother has a new round of chanting.

After returning home, Qiao's father was shocked by the pile of things that Qiao's mother bought, "Why did you buy so many?"

Mother Qiao said, "The hen will be stewed in a while, the beef will be stewed with persimmons, and the mutton will be made into dumplings at night. After that, I will boil eggs for her every morning."

Father Qiao pushed down his reading glasses, "Did you find out something wrong?"

"There's nothing wrong with it, it's a little weak, and it needs to be mended." Qiao's mother stuffed the old hen into Qiao's father's hand, "Go kill the chicken." Although Qiao's father is a schoolteacher, it is his business to kill chickens and fish at home. , When I was young, I used to help others butcher pigs and sheep in the countryside. From this point of view, Father Qiao is also quite sturdy.

Qiao Miwei took the initiative to carry a bowl and followed Father Qiao. Unlike other children, she didn't dare to watch this kind of scene. When Father Qiao killed chickens when he was a child, she held the bowl to catch the blood.

The two hid out, and Father Qiao asked while playing with the chicken, "How are you and Xiao Han recently? You quit your job, have you talked to him?"

Qiao Miwei dare not tell the truth. If she dares to say that they have broken up, and she plans to leave Fangcheng completely and settle in the countryside, her parents will definitely think of the fact that she also sold the house. It's not on the same level. She dared to say that she would resign, but regarding the seller... let's wait and see, "No, he doesn't know."

Father Qiao sighed, "It's fine if you don't say anything, your mother means to let you come back to teach, I don't think so, your foundation is in Fangcheng after all, and since you have gone out, don't come back, rest at home first, remember Give Xiao Han a call."

Qiao Mi nodded slightly and agreed.

Qiao's mother has good cooking skills, and Qiao Miwei's cooking skills are inherited from her mother. Although she took a wild way, the taste is not weaker than that of chefs in high-end restaurants.

Lunch was prepared by the mother and daughter together. The thick chicken soup, the crispy stewed beef with the aroma of persimmons, one bite can swallow your tongue, in order not to worry your parents, but also to reward yourself Stomach, Qiao Mi let go of his stomach slightly, and ate an extra bowl of rice than usual.

After lunch, Qiao Miwei sneaked out while her parents were taking a lunch break. She recognized a classmate from elementary school in the vegetable market. She remembered that classmate's hometown seemed to be from Wujia Village. When she was a child, she followed Wu Xiaohui to Her family had visited, and she remembered that the transportation was not very convenient in that place, it was more than 100 kilometers away from the county seat, and the terrain in the middle of the village surrounded by mountains on three sides was very flat, and the village was relatively small, so the population was small. The views are great, and if you can get a house there, it's a great place to go.

Wu Xiaohui is a very ordinary girl who doesn't study well and has a younger brother at home, so she dropped out of school after junior high school and sold vegetables with her family for a living. Fortunately, her appearance hasn't changed much over the years, otherwise Qiao Miwei wouldn't be able to recognize her she.

Obviously Wu Xiaohui was still very impressed with Qiao Miwei. As soon as Qiao Miwei walked in front of her, she handed over the other person's name, "Qiao Miwei, hey, do you still recognize me?"

Qiao Mi smiled and said, "Wu Xiaohui, of course I know you. When I came to the vegetable market with my mother in the morning, I saw that it was you vaguely. When I got home, I remembered it. How are you?"

Wu Xiaohui has a very carefree personality, and she doesn't feel inferior at all because she is a vegetable seller. She laughed, "I got married early, and now I live in the two streets in front of you. As for you, I remember that you are a popular person in our class." , study well, look good, I heard that you are in Fangcheng? Or a foreign company."

Qiao Mi waved his hand slightly, "What's the use? I quit my job. Foreign companies are not so easy to mess with. It's still coming out after all. I still like our small county town, where the pace of life is slow."

"Oh, are you married?"

Qiao Mi shook her head slightly, "I've been taking care of my work for the past few years, and if I don't pay attention, I'm getting old. By the way, I'll ask you something."

"What's the matter?"

"Your hometown is Wujia Village, isn't there anyone selling houses in your place?"

Wu Xiaohui was stunned for a moment, "What are you doing? Who wants to buy a house? My house is remote and far away. Why don't you buy it in the city?"

"I'll buy it, you can help me find out if there are any vacancies."

"Oh, why did you buy that house? Isn't your home here? You can still farm the land." Wu Xiaohui was surprised.

"Isn't it just to farm, you keep it in mind, and help me find out when the time comes."
