Please collect new books, thank you!

The two children had already played in a pile. Min Rou ran home and brought a stack of drawing paper and pens. Under Zeng Zihao's guidance, he found a wooden board at Uncle Gu's house and used it as a simple drawing board. He asked Uncle Gu for it again. Two clips, put paper on it, and started to practice pens in a decent manner.

Zeng Zihao has attended art training classes since he was a child, and he has been studying for five years. In addition, after his leg injury, he stayed at home all day, unable to move, and practiced even more vigorously.Facing minced meat that he knew nothing about, he felt a sense of pride in his heart.Especially minced meat's eyes that humbly listen to his teachings make him feel that he is needed by others.The most important thing is that this is a person of the same age. His former friends have never played with him since his leg was broken.Today, he has another partner who doesn't regard him as trash and likes to play with him.He laughed loudly with minced meat, made noises, joked, and was very happy.

Uncle Bone stroked his uneven gray beard, looking at the two little dolls with joy.

Seeing that it was getting late, Guo Zisu made a meal, greeted Uncle Gu and the two children to eat, and heated water for them to wash their faces.

When it was dark, Zeng Wenwei called. Listening to his narration, Guo Zisu was dumbfounded.

On the phone, Zeng Wenwei said in an extremely weak voice that on the way back, he had been poisoned by scorpion poison, centipede poison, and other kinds of poisons that he couldn't explain. He felt more and more uncomfortable, and it was difficult to walk.

Zeng Zihao burst into tears when he heard that his father had been poisoned by insects.

Guo Zisu hugged his face to her chest, and comforted him softly: "Don't cry, Auntie will pick up your father right away."

Uncle Gu sighed again and again, and said, "Don't panic, Mr. Guo, come back as soon as you receive him, I have an antidote here."

Li Yimin and Xia Lian didn't come over for something, and Liang Shi didn't come back either.Guo Zisu didn't have time to think about it, she told Min Rou to take care of Uncle Gu and Zeng Zihao at home, and took a flashlight to pick up Zeng Wenwei.

When she went outside, she felt that Minced Meat was chasing her out, so she turned her head and saw Minced Meat leaning against the door, looking at her silently with a pair of bright eyes, and seeing her turn her head, she said like an adult: " Teacher Guo, don't be afraid."

Guo Zisu's eyes became hot, she waved her hand at him, and said, "Stay indoors, if they want tea or something, just pour it for them. Don't run around, wait until I come back."

Minrou nodded sensiblely, turned around and walked into the room.

Guo Zisu talked with Zeng Wenwei on the phone all the way, and finally met him halfway up the mountain.Zeng Wenwei was panting heavily, his face was full of pimples, and his body was scratched. When he saw Guo Zisu, he slumped down on the ground in frustration and frustration.

After a while, he recovered his breath, and with a sad face, he said annoyedly: "I have only reached the place close to the cliff, and there are countless giant hornets flying over, flying around my head all the time. They stabbed me from time to time. I still poked forward, and countless centipedes suddenly appeared on the hillside. They were black, thick and long, crawling around in front of me, and some even climbed onto my feet, biting me. It hurts so badly. The more I drive away, the more there will be."

Hearing what he said, Guo Zisu didn't dare to look up at the dark woods around her, and she didn't dare to look at the ground under her feet, for fear that if she opened her eyes wide, she would see those poisonous insects and wasps.

Zeng Wenwei stroked his chest and coughed a few times, then said: "I felt dizzy soon, and thought that even if I died, I would have to collect the medicine and take it back to save my son. But those vicious poisonous insects seemed to understand me. They screamed overwhelmingly and rushed over together, and then groups of scorpions also crawled around along my legs."

He seemed to be still under the siege of poisonous insects on the hillside, with deep terror in his eyes, and his voice sounded trembling and weird: "I know that even if I lose my life today, I won't be able to get the medicine, so I still have to Go back alive and continue to seek medical treatment for your son." He cried with his head in his arms, the veins on his hands were protruding and full of bite marks.

Guo Zisu reached out to help him, and comforted him: "If you keep the green hills, you won't be afraid of running out of firewood. Come on, we'll think of a way when we get back."

Zeng Wenwei looked dazed, his eyes glazed over, and he still couldn't sit up.

Guo Zisu understands the despair of this man who loves his son so much when his hopes are shattered.She patted his hand lightly, and said: "It's important to go back and treat your poison first, Mr. Bone and the children are waiting for us at home."

Zeng Wenwei was shocked when he heard the word child, and murmured: "Go back and find a way."

Guo Zisu helped Zeng Wenwei out of the forest step by step and returned to Uncle Gu's house.As soon as he reached the door, Minrou, who had been paying attention to the movement outside the door, ran out and reached out to take the flashlight in Guo Zisu's hand, so that Guo Zisu could help Zeng Wenwei into the room better.

As soon as he entered the room, Minrou put down the flashlight, and quickly ran to the kitchen to bring a chair over for Zeng Wenwei to sit down.Then, he ran to the kitchen again, brought a chair over, and asked Guo Zisu to sit on it.

Guo Zisu patted his head happily, and praised him: "You are so good. I don't have time to sit now, so I need to boil water for this uncle to wash first."

Zeng Wenwei's body was swollen and painful, his eyes could not be opened, and he had difficulty breathing through his mouth.But he still intermittently told Uncle Bone about his experience on the mountain.

Uncle Gu has been carefully observing the scars on Zeng Wenwei's body.Hearing that the hillside leading to the cliff was covered with poisonous bees, scorpions, and swarms of centipedes, his eyelids twitched a few times, his face changed slightly, he sighed, and shook his head thoughtfully for a long time.

After Zeng Wenwei sat down, he said, "Mr. Guo, first use a clean cloth to wipe off the mud and sand on his face and body. I have tea seed oil in the cabinet, and there is a pack of white medicinal powder in the drawer on the right. Mix it thoroughly with a bowl. Put it on him."

Guo Zisu went to the kitchen to find a clean facecloth, and the minced meat also ran over, opened the cupboard and took out a bowl.

Guo Zisu glanced at the minced meat with admiring eyes, and then hurriedly cleaned Zeng Wenwei.

Minced Meat asked again while taking out tea oil and medicinal powder, carefully mixed them thoroughly under the guidance of Uncle Gu, and handed them to Guo Zisu.

Guo Zisu took a cotton swab and carefully painted Zeng Wenwei little by little.

Min Rou stood aside and watched, then went to ask Uncle Bone: "Master, what are you going to do later?"

Uncle Bone touched his head joyfully, and boasted: "I didn't expect you to be so capable at a critical moment." He rolled his eyes happily a few times, and said, "Go and help boil some water, and use it later." Boil some rice wine and give him medicine."

"I'll come later." Guo Zisu was afraid that the minced meat might be messed up, so she said, "There is firewood in front of the stove, if the firewood in the stove accidentally falls out and ignites, it will be a disaster."

Minced Meat ran to the kitchen and proudly said: "I can do it. I also help my mother cook at home, and I have never ignited the firewood in front of the stove."

Guo Zisu applied ointment to Zeng Wenwei, and took medicine for him.

It was late at night after work, and both children started yawning.Guo Zisu discussed with Uncle Gu about where the father and son of the Zeng family should sleep.

Uncle Bone said to let them sleep in the same bed with him.His bed was a bit simple, but Liang Shi often changed it and washed it, so it was considered clean, so let Zeng's father and son sleep for a night.

Zeng Wenwei strongly disagreed. He said that he likes to turn over when he falls asleep at night, and if he bumps into Uncle Bone's injured leg, it's no joke.He wants to take his son to play on the floor.

Uncle Bone rolled his eyes at him: "Your son already has a leg injury, how can he sleep on the floor in such a cold day, besides, there is no floor in my house."

Seeing the two of them arguing, Guo Zisu pondered for a moment and said, "Why don't Mr. Zeng take his son to sleep in Mr. Liang's room, which happens to be empty tonight."

When Uncle Gu heard this, he immediately nodded in agreement and said, "That's a good idea, then you can take them to sleep in Liang Shina."

Zeng Wenwei carried his son on his back, Guo Zisu led the minced meat, said goodbye to Uncle Bone, and went to Chunhua's house together.

Walking on the road, seeing that Chunhua had not come to pick them up so late, Guo Zisu said to Min Rou strangely: "Min Rou, why is your mother not coming so late today? You even ate dinner at Uncle Gu's house, and she also Didn't come to see you."

Minced Meat looked around, and the child didn't understand why his mother didn't come, so he didn't answer.

When they arrived at the wooden house, Guo Zisu arranged for Zeng Wenwei and his son to go to Liang Shi's room to rest.

The two children are still a bit reluctant to be separated and want to sleep together.Guo Zisu held Minrou's hand, and said, "Minced Meat is good. Mom won't see you when she comes back. I don't know how anxious you are. Come, Teacher Guo will take you back to your room to sleep."

Finally, the minced meat was coaxed to sleep.Just as she was about to go back to her room to rest, another series of questions popped up in Guo Zisu's mind, why did Sister Chunhua not come back so late?Is she still busy in Xinwuchang?
After thinking about it, she picked up the flashlight again and walked towards Chunhua's new house.

Not far away, Chunhua's voice came from behind: "Zisu, where are you going?"

Guo Zisu turned around in surprise: "Sister Chunhua, why didn't I see you just now? I was planning to go to Xinwuchang to find you."

Chunhua rubbed her eyes, and said softly, "I was feeding the pigs just now, and I happened to see you when I came out."

Seeing the tears on her face, Guo Zisu asked nervously, "Sister Chunhua, what's wrong with you? The stone hit you again?"

"No." Chunhua shook her head, took Guo Zisu's hand, and said, "Come on, look at the pigs my sister feeds. They grow so fast, and they will definitely sell for a good price by this time next year."

"Yes, then I'll go and have a look." Guo Zisu followed Chunhua to the pigsty, and saw that the pigs in the pen were well fed, sleeping on clean grass, and purring happily.She couldn't help praising: "Sister Chunhua, you really care about feeding the pigs. The pigsty is so clean, and your pigs are happier than other pigs."

Chunhua smiled and said proudly: "No matter which piglets in the village I caught at the same time, they didn't grow as fast or as big as the ones I fed."

"Then do you have any particularly good methods of feeding pigs?"

"No. Just clean them up and watch them finish every meal to see if they are full. If they are full, find out why. Don't let mosquitoes bite you in summer, and don't let mosquitos bite you in winter. Don't be cold, they will grow up quickly."

Guo Zisu nodded again and again: "Kung fu pays off, and everything is the same. Your family's ability to build a house is largely due to your feeding the pigs."

Chunhua's face darkened, and she let out a long sigh: "Zisu, his father thinks the stones in the house are too difficult to get, so he won't build the house anymore."

ah?Guo Zisu was taken aback, because she knew that repairing the house was full of Chunhua's desire for a happy family and a happy future.Now that she can't repair it, she should be so disappointed.She must have been hiding here and crying sadly for a long time just now.

"If you want to fix it, just insist on persuading him. I believe he also wants to have a house of his own." Guo Zisu gently encouraged Chunhua, stroking Chunhua's back.

Chunhua nodded firmly, and said: "Yes, he doesn't go to the whole house, I go by myself, and I use the money I got from feeding the pigs to hire a stonemason. I can't repair it in one year, but in two, three years, he will always do it." Convinced by me, I must fix the house."

Guo Zisu was very sad when she heard the words, thinking how did Sister Chunhua meet this unworthy man?When will her miserable life end?Let's hope she goes well with fixing up her new house.

Going back to her room very tired, lying on the bed, Guo Zisu's mind couldn't help showing scenes during the day.She felt that the day was so long, she was spinning like a top, experiencing, and had no time to think.I'm so tired, I really hope Liang Shi can come back tomorrow.
