In the early 1980s, although the life of the big guys was not as difficult as it used to be, it was not much better. However, after the distribution of land to the households, the peasant households could eat their own food, not like in the past. Every now and then I'm going to be hungry.
Xiaohe Village is considered to be a relatively wealthy village. At the beginning of the year, electricity was connected to the village, and at night, every house was illuminated by lights. It was much better than the dark past.
It was already winter at this time, it got dark earlier, and it was cold, everyone went home early, and there were not many people walking on the village road, the moonlight shone down from the sky, and cast a cold silver cloud on the ground. Light.
A tall figure walked in from outside the village, he didn't alarm anyone, he dragged his heavy body and walked towards his home.
When he was approaching the door of the house, the gate of the yard next door opened suddenly. After he saw the person on the road, he was startled, and the flashlight subconsciously shone on the person's face.
"Qi Wang? Why is it you? Oh, what happened to you? Why is your arm broken? Didn't you go to the city to find your daughter? Why are you in such a mess?"
Zhou Yihe is Qi Wang's neighbor, he is the most enthusiastic person, when he saw Qi Wang's miserable appearance, he was taken aback and hurried over to help him.
"Tell me about you, how can you break yourself like this when you're such a big man? Really, be careful, where is your key? I'll open the door for you."
Although Tuesday He's mouth was chattering non-stop, but he was quick at work. He quickly helped Qi Wang into the house, and after he was seated, he boiled water and cooked food. He quickly brought Qi Wang a bowl of noodles, urging him to eat quickly.
"Qi Wang, didn't you go to the city to look for your girl? Didn't you find it? Or did something happen after you came back? Tell me quickly, is your arm broken? Do you want me? Ask Lao Qiao to show you? But if your arm is broken, you’d better go to the hospital to see it, but in your family’s condition, you should go to Lao Qiao to have a look. Although his medical skills are not very good, he is still a doctor anyway. I'm going to call someone."
After Tuihe finished speaking, without waiting for Qi Wang to say anything more, he ran out in a hurry.
Qi Huan: "..."
This person is really too enthusiastic, he doesn't need anyone to talk, he can finish the conversation by himself, but an enthusiastic person is better than an indifferent person, at least you don't have to worry about being calculated by others when you get along.
Qi Wang walked all the way back, his stomach was already rumbling with hunger, although the noodles didn't look very good, but he didn't care about anything, and started to eat.
However, I don't know if it was his bad luck. He choked on the food just after he took a bite, and then he started to cough violently.
After coughing, his stomach, which had been suffering from hunger, suddenly felt no hunger. Looking at the white noodles in front of him, he even felt a strong sense of nausea in his heart.
This situation is not normal, Qi Wang narrowed his eyes slightly, although he had no appetite at all, he still ate the bowl of noodles silently.
As soon as the noodles were finished, Tuesday River came back with a middle-aged man carrying a big medicine box on his back. He should be the old Qiao that Tuesday River mentioned.
"Old Qiao, hurry up and help Qi Wang take a look. He is in such a miserable state, and he didn't say a word after he came back. I don't know if his brain has been thrown into a fool. After you help him set his bones, help him by the way." Take a look at the head and see if he broke it."
Tuesday He's mouth was also fast, sputtering out a lot of words, while he was talking, he urged Old Qiao to show him to Qi Wang quickly.
Old Qiao rolled his eyes, and said angrily: "Tueshouhe, is there a dog chasing you behind your ass? With your mouth like a wooden warehouse, who can get in the way? You think seeing a doctor is the same as It’s the same as you talk, just touch your mouth? Shut your mouth quickly, don’t talk, and don’t waste my time here. "
Zhou Zhouhe: "...Old Qiao, you are wrong. With your ability, I don't even talk next to you. Even if I fire a cannon, it won't affect you, right?"
Old Joe: "..."
Zhou Yihe has been in the village for so long without being beaten. A large part of the reason is that he can speak well, can make people angry, and can also make people laugh from ear to ear.
Old Qiao didn't talk to him any more, and started to look at Qi Wang's arm.
When he came back, Qi Wang had already treated his arm briefly. He used to be a doctor, and it was not difficult to set the bone, but because he didn't have any tools at hand, the treatment was rough.
Zhou Zuihe just said that Lao Qiao is a barefoot doctor, and his medical skills are not very good, but Qi Wang looked at his skillful technique and knew that Zhou Zuihe's words were not small.
Old Qiao's medical skills are quite good, he didn't even feel any pain when he was helping Qi Wang set the bone. After the bone was set, he took out a small jar from the medicine box, and there was a black ointment in the jar. The smell of the ointment was a bit pungent, but when it was applied on the wound, it felt refreshing and cool, and the pain from the original wound dissipated a lot.
From Qi Wang's point of view, there is no contraband added to the ointment, but he can only distinguish a few simple medicinal materials through the smell, and he doesn't know more.
This old Joe still has a few brushes, but he doesn't know why he stays in this small village as a barefoot doctor.
But everyone has secrets, Qi Wang didn't ask any more questions.
After helping Qi Wang deal with the wound on his arm, Old Qiao looked up at Qi Wang, looked at him carefully, and asked: "Tue He said you broke your brain, do you want me to take a look at it for you? ?”
His words seemed to have some deep meaning, not like teasing, Qi Wang glanced at him and shook his head: "No need, I know it in my heart."
Seeing this, Old Qiao didn't say anything more.
Seeing that Qi Wang's arm had been healed on Tuesday, He started nagging about his condition again.
"Didn't you go to the city to find your daughter? She didn't keep you for dinner? Didn't she ask someone to take you back? Her family is so rich, so it shouldn't be a problem for the driver to take you back, right? At least you raised her too So many years…”
Qi Wang didn't finish receiving the original owner's memory, so he didn't know much about the situation in this world. He couldn't answer what Zhou Zhouhe said for a while, and was thinking of finding some excuse to prevaricate, but Old Qiao grabbed him. Grabbed Tuesday River's arm and pulled him up.
"Okay, okay, Qi Wang just came back from the city and was injured again. It's the time when you're feeling uncomfortable. Why do you ask these words? Do you think he's not uncomfortable enough? Let's go, go home, don't delay people rest…”
Old Qiao's strength is not small. On Tuesday, He was a tall man, but he was taken out by Old Qiao who was a set smaller than him.
On Tuesday, He followed Old Qiao outside uncontrollably. After being dragged out of the living room, he turned around and shouted at Qi Wang: "Qi Wang, your arm is inconvenient. Don't move if you can. I will do it tomorrow." I'll bring you a good meal, just wait and eat... Hey hey, good old Joe, I haven't finished my sentence yet, why are you dragging me... "
The voices of the two gradually faded away, Qi Wang got up and went to close the door, after a brief wash, changed into clean clothes, and then began to receive the memories belonging to the original owner.
The original owner was not a native of Xiaohe Village, he escaped from the famine with his master and brother, and took root here after arriving in Xiaohe Village, and Old Qiao was his senior, and Old Qiao's real name was Qiao Anyang, he was more than The original owner was five years older. After the master passed away, he had been taking care of the original owner.
The original owner is actually not an ordinary farmer, his master is an old Taoist priest, the original owner has a good talent in Taoism, and he learned things like catching ghosts from the master, and Lao Qiao has no talent in this area, but in He is very talented in medicine, so he learned medical skills from an old Taoist priest.
Later, after breaking the Four Olds, all feudal superstitions will be overthrown. The old Taoist priest died because of some things, and then only the two brothers and sisters were left to depend on each other.
The original owner's talent was good, but he didn't catch up with the good time, so even if his Taoism was better than his master, he didn't show it.
Later, the two brothers got older, and when it was time to get married, Lao Qiao successfully found a wife and got married, and the original owner also got married not long after, and the two senior brothers separated to live their own lives.
The original owner's wife was weak and sick. The two of them had been married for several years and had no children. The original owner's wife felt guilty and depressed, and her health became worse and worse.
The original owner knew fortune-telling, and he knew that he had no destiny to have children, so he couldn't blame his wife, but no matter how he solved it, his wife's body was still getting weaker day by day.
This is her heart disease, and it can't be resolved in a few words.
Later, when the original owner went to the town. He picked up a baby girl wrapped in swaddling clothes on the side of the road, and remembered that his wife had been depressed about the child, so he took the child home. After discussing with his wife, the couple decided to keep the child .
Girls are worthless in this day and age, and some people often give birth to female dolls and don’t want to keep them, so they throw them away on the side of the road. In addition, the baby’s swaddling clothes are in tatters. Both the original owner and his wife think that the baby is also abandoned by their parents. Baby, the two of them have no children, and raising this child is considered a merit.
Those days were difficult, and the child seemed to have been frozen for a long time, and his body was much weaker than ordinary children. In order to raise this child well, the husband and wife put a lot of effort into her.
It can be said that the husband and wife have never regarded this child as a pick-up, even if it is their own daughter, it is not as good as the husband and wife.
That child is also obedient. She has been well-behaved and sensible since she was a child. Except for her poor health, which made them worry more, she has never made the husband and wife worry about other aspects.
If this is the case, there will be no Qi Wang coming.
When Qi Baoxing was fourteen years old, a car suddenly came to Xiaohe Village. Those men and women who got out of the car and looked at their watches showed rich people, told the original owner and his wife that Qi Baoxing was their lost daughter, and asked them to return Qi Baoxing. give them.
The original owner's Taoism was superb, and he couldn't tell from the faces of the people he cared about, but from the faces of these two wealthy men and women, he could tell that Qi Baoxing was really their daughter.
After raising a fourteen-year-old daughter, how could it be possible for someone to take her away? The original owner refused to let them take the child away on the grounds that Qi Baoxing was their unwanted child.
However, Qi Baoxing's parents told the original owner that they did not abandon Qi Baoxing at the beginning. When she came to visit relatives in the countryside, she accidentally moved her fetal gas and started it early, and the child she gave birth was replaced by the borrowed family. up.
This time when she came here to visit relatives, she happened to meet Qi Baoxing, and seeing Qi Baoxing who looked exactly like her when she was young, she realized that she had been raising other people's children for so many years.
"Baoxing is our daughter, we will compensate you, but we must take the child away."
