Pinellia pastoral

Chapter 182 Hope
The night was a bit late, with insects singing and birds chirping, Su Youli got up and went out.

Walking on the village road, holding a handful of hemp stalks from Qiu Daming's house in his hand, with a handful of red dots, he could vaguely tell the way. The cool night wind blowing on his face made his steps more brisk.

After a while, he went up a slope, and looked back at Qiu Daming's house, there was still a small group of dim light.

He smiled and walked towards his home in Dongwang Village contentedly.

As for Qiu Daming's family, after walking by Su Youli for a long time, they all gathered in the main room. The oil lamp was on and no one thought of blowing it out. ...

If it weren't for these things, they would have thought it was a dream.

Qiu Daming didn't light hemp sticks to help others weave the simple baskets, and his hands were often scratched and mottled. Yao didn't need to take advantage of the little stars in the stove to keep turning around the stove, occasionally sad The grown-up child is not full but is so sensible that it makes people feel distressed. How will I live after the rice at home is sold out? Should I start picking some things that can replace food on the mountain the next day? When stretched into the rice tank, do you have to shake it...

Now, the things that bothered them so much that they couldn't feel hope...seemed to be less difficult.

So, can't believe it.

Old Qiu looked at the things on the table, and there was a phlegm sound in his throat again, like a bellows, and he suppressed it after a while.

"The Su family... benevolence and justice." After saying this, heat flowed from the sunken eye sockets, "Just do it well. Since you have already promised something, why did they pick you? Why are they looking at us? The family is difficult, last time you sent the extra things back when others were in difficulty, this person can't be too greedy, so that God can see."

Seeing Qiu Daming's appearance that he didn't know whether he was listening or not, Lao Qiu beat his head on the bed twice: "Where do you want to go! Such a good thing is delivered to the door, you still don't know how to do it?"

Seeing that his father was agitated, Qiu Daming quickly replied: "Father, I was thinking about how to let this matter out. You know how to say this suddenly. If you don't see any money in your hand, what should others think? They deliberately went outside and said, seeing us like this, they will take care of it, and it will be done by then."

Listening to Qiu Daming's words, Lao Qiu's face felt relieved, and a glimmer of hope appeared inexplicably in his heart. Maybe he recovered from his illness and could watch his grandson grow up and get married. After being ill for so long, the old man showed a smile for the first time .

He also had a lot of confidence in his speech, and said: "Even so, you should go and tell your uncle, he should have confidence in his heart, our family's several acres of dry land can also be planted with soybeans, and you will be able to grow soybeans for three hundred a month. Wen's wages can't be said to be low anywhere, and you don't need to leave home. Don't worry about things that you didn't dare to think about before, such as selling land and rice, and Yi Wa'er can After eating, you, Uncle Su, are right. These things are for the adults to worry about. Just follow your father and watch, and Yiwaniang will take care of the house. I am afraid that Daming will not be free these few months. Even if they don’t say anything, they still have to make a show.”

Talked a lot, and assigned all the things at home.

Yao shi wiped away his tears, and replied "Ai--".

You don't have to worry about so many things in your heart, it doesn't matter if you work harder.

After the family affairs were straightened out, it was still as usual, but Qiu Daming ran to the entrance of the village with a dry cigarette, and joined the chatting team.

Early the next morning, before he had time to go to the field, he saw a man in his thirties carrying a box in the yard, looking at the yard with reluctance.

He was sure he didn't know this person, but he was in a good mood, so he asked very politely: "My brother, is there something wrong?"

It was obviously an ordinary sentence, but the man's eyes widened when he heard it, "It's nothing, you walked so many miles to get here early in the morning! I don't know that there is dew outside, and my trouser legs are dirty."

Qiu Daming was a little speechless, it's none of your business whether you go or not, but he didn't lose his temper, and said, "In that case, why don't you rest at home with a bowl of porridge."

Unexpectedly, such rhetoric still made the person opposite a little dissatisfied, and shouted: "I came to your yard with good intentions, and you actually gave me porridge! What kind of hospitality is this."

After finishing speaking, he himself waved his hands and feet: "Forget it, you are a fool if you think about it, otherwise you wouldn't be selling fields and land or something. Someone in this family is sick and doesn't know how to find a doctor! It can't be cured by a doctor. You know how to change doctors! You are as virtuous as the former Su Laosan!"

Qiu Daming was at a loss and couldn't figure it out. He was a little upset when he was reprimanded so early in the morning. After listening to him muttering so much, he finally heard a third Su, and his eyes lit up. He thought it was just Su Youli's words to lie to the child, but he didn't expect to invite someone to come.Wait, such a doctor...

Mu Shijiu seemed to be able to see through what he was thinking: "What? You still want to hide your illness and avoid medical treatment! I, Mu Jiujiu, snatched back 99 people from the Yan Luo Temple. You don't even know about the drug store. I have lived in vain for so many years, and I am ashamed of you! Patient, you are really a person, do you want to take care of your family, and the doctor is at the door, so you don’t know, please come in, just want to stop..."

After saying this, Mu Jiujiu went to the main room by himself, and soon his voice talking to Old Qiutou was heard.

Qiu Daming was still on the spot, very puzzled, did he stop him?This doesn't look like a doctor, does he really know how to cure diseases?Why didn't I know it before?He looked like he was muttering, if he hadn't mentioned Su Youli, how could he have let him in.

With such entanglement, Qiu Daming quickly moved into the house, but seeing the smile on this man's face, he felt his pulse while talking to Lao Qiutou: "Master, no one in this town is as lucky as you, you see Look, where can I find such good children and grandchildren? I have treated thousands of people, but I have never seen someone who went bankrupt and was treated... Don't worry, this is not a serious problem. I will follow Su Laosan from now on. You can live to 99 even if you reach [-]..."

Seeing his face changing, Qiu Daming twitched the corners of his mouth, thinking that after a while, Lao Qiu must not be allowed to take the medicine prescribed by this person, even if it was Su Laosan who told him about it, he had to ask .

"Aren't you going to ladle porridge?" Mu Jiujiu looked at the dejected look on Qiu Daming's face, and suddenly he felt much better.

Qiu Daming didn't want to go, but the old Qiu Tou waved him away like a fly, so he had to go to the kitchen to bring the porridge.

The family didn’t give medicine at all, so the silver needle was pulled out and put away, “You’ve been taking the medicine for too long, and your appetite has already been ruined. I’ll give you the needle first, and then I’ll go to the drug store to give you the needle next time there’s a fair.” Take the medicine twice, if you come to me earlier, there is no need to be so troublesome..."

After finishing speaking, Mu Shijiu's stomach growled, and he didn't care about the heat, so he drank half a bowl of the porridge that Qiu Daming brought over.

Putting down the bowls and chopsticks and rushing to Dongwang Village, this food is really bland, it’s been a long time since I’ve eaten braised pork, stewed eggs, stewed duck feet, distiller’s lees fish...

Thinking about it, he raised his leg and was about to leave.

"Dr...doctor, let's go to the town to give acupuncture? The doctor said my father's body can't be blown, so it's okay to push the door with a car? How much is the consultation fee, and I'll get it for you." After all, he is an honest person, even if Mu Jiu I really don't have the skills, and I went to see a doctor. There is no reason not to pay the consultation fee.

Unexpectedly, when asked this way, Mu Jiujiu hummed twice as if he had been humiliated: "What do you mean you can't blow the wind! If you can't get out, I will let him go to the town? Lay on the bed and be a useless person." What? You have so much money in your hands that you can’t spend it all? Then why are you still giving me porridge? I’ve cured your father, so I want to give you some money? If I want consultation money, ten taels of silver, you can get it Is it? An ignorant brat!"

Brat?You seem to be bigger than him, right?this person...

"Da Ming—" Old Qiutou's voice seemed to be clearer, calling in the room.

When Qiu Daming entered the door, he saw that Lao Qiu was sweating on his head and face, "Help me hold this foot quickly, it's so itchy, my whole body feels like it's on fire."

Old Qiutou didn't have such symptoms before, Qiu Daming felt anxious, "I know this doctor is not like him, and I don't know how to pretend to deceive people, so I will chase him right away."

Suddenly, the father and son looked at each other and were completely stunned.

After Lao Qiutou was ill before, he was hanged with medicine, and he was not bad all the time. Later, he couldn't even go out the door. His legs and feet went from pain to numbness. Why do they feel itchy now?

There was ecstasy on their faces.

However, in two or three days, the old Qiutou was able to support Qiu Yi, and he walked more and more steadily in the house, with more and more smiles on his face, "If this is all right, you boy can't compare to me in planting soybeans, I just looked around in the fields, if it grows well, the bean curd sticks can be made well, I'm afraid I can get my life back..."

Although it was hanging before, it was no different from being dead.

Qiu Daming has been living in excitement for the past few days, he can't wait to find Mu Jiujiu immediately, and ask him to restore the old Qiutou's body quickly, even if he sells the land.In the end, it was Old Qiutou who stopped him, "This is the genius doctor called by your elder brother Su. If you have the ability, why don't you keep it? It makes sense for him to go when he lets go. You have been ill for so long, what else is there?" It’s hard to see, it’s only been a few days, and I’ve already told you not to be dissatisfied.”

Suppressing the agitation in his heart, Qiu Daming finally worked wholeheartedly.

I heard that he was lucky enough to grow soybeans for someone else's workshop. This is something that has no shadow, and the money will be in his hands.Many villagers who heard the news gathered around his house, and he kept explaining to the villagers, and what he talked about most was the model of growing soybeans.

Some people are happy to ask him to help, some people don't believe the sour words, and more people hold a wait-and-see attitude.

Qiu Daming also did not explain.
