Chapter 14 Fuduoduo thinks of a way

Grandpa Bai and his wife are not weird in character, and their reputation in the village is even very good. They have seven adult children. It is said that except for the youngest who is a second-marriage family, the other six children are not short of money to this extent. The eldest even has a stable job and drive a Mercedes-Benz.

In this situation, it sounds a bit absurd that no one is willing to support the two old men, but this happened.

"Actually, having seven children at that time was nothing, and it didn't feel like a burden. The children could help their families when they grew up to be a laborer, and they could grow up a little longer. Five fingers still have their own lengths. A couple of seven children must have conflicts. To be honest, Lao Bai did a good job, at least he didn't starve to death, but he just didn't know what his children were thinking."

The walnut skin given by Grandma Hua was very thin. Grandma squeezed the shell and broke it. The walnut meat was peeled off, and she gave half to her granddaughter and half to her grandson.

Xu Bai: "No matter how you don't care about the old man, you can't ignore it..."

It is not a secret in the village that Grandpa Bai’s family is known to everyone. Grandma is quite willing to chat with her grandchildren. They see that they know a lot and can also teach them as life experiences.

"That was when Lao Bai and his wife were in their sixties. That year, their seven children agreed to pay their parents' living expenses in turn. One day, Lao Bai's eldest son and his daughter had a quarrel at the entrance of the village. It seemed that they were just for the sake of a few dishes in the field. They said that their daughter also gave them living expenses, so why can't they pick up orders from the field and eat alone. In less than two days, the seven children came back, and the family was unable to pay, mainly because the living expenses were given in the same number, and parents could not favor one or the other. Lao Bai had been a soldier before and was a very tough person. He always listened to him in all matters at home, so he could not beg for harsh words from his children - he said, "I am not begging for food and begging. He was very tough, so he asked his children to leave and refused to ask for their money."

Xu Bai: "Do they really don't give it?"

"Then, I really won't give it to these seven people. The youngest felt that Lao Liu didn't say anything. He was waiting for the people above to speak, Lao Liu was waiting for Lao Wu to speak, Lao Wu was waiting for Lao Wu to speak, Lao Wu and the fourth one... Everyone seemed to be holding their breath in their hearts, and they didn't discuss it together. Just drag it! It took more than ten or twenty years to delay it. I heard that Lao Bai's seven children's household registration had been transferred to the city, and they might also think that people were afraid of words and had no shame to come to the village for many years. In terms of their age, they were all ages to ask their children for living expenses."

Xu Bai: "…"

"The old couple originally had some savings, so they said it tough, but they really didn't expect that they could live so long. The older they were, the less useful it would be. There were many things that were not convenient without children around them."

Grandma was very touched. She was only ten years younger than the old white couple. She stayed in the village and didn’t understand the things outside. She was uneducated and could not even withdraw money from her passbook. She had to call her children if she wanted to buy something big.

Many Fuzhen didn't expect that Grandpa Bai's family was so complicated, and it was a bit speechless. No wonder grandma shook her head when she said that she didn't have the ability to support her parents, but she didn't have that little money. Even the casual part of her life in the city is enough for her parents to live a good life. Because * Brother doesn't give her parents money, why should I suffer a loss? I have no life and death grudges to my biological parents so coldly, and I forget that I don't have to come. I'm stingy with some money and I don't know how to comment.

There are many such things in the village.

Grandma still had clothes to wash, so she went to the stream with the villagers. Duofu brought out a small stool while peeling walnuts while enjoying the rare sunshine in winter. Moli stopped the car and entered the door and saw a bowl of walnuts full of peeling meat.

"Walnut meat~ What are you going to do?"

Mo Li was like his own house. He took a small stool and sat down. Duo Fu was curious about what was in his bag: "Is there malt sugar in your bag?"

The solid candy cubes in Moli's hand were porous yellow-white. Duofu took it and sniffed it with his nose, and said affirmatively: "It's indeed malt sugar."

"Just!"

Manyu washed two radishes, and the most produced white radish in her field was large white radish. This year, there were two varieties of white radish. The mixer was borrowed. After she chopped the radish, she could only use clean gauze to twist the juice, which was slower.

Here we must talk about the problem of water. Different types of water, their nature and taste are different, and their functions are different. In "Compendium of Materia Medica", there are two types of water: Tianshui and Earthly Water. Such as dew, snow, rain, etc., it is Tianshui, and such as well water, spring water, river water, etc., it is Earthly Water.

Many grandma's family does not use tap water. Most of the domestic water comes from the reservoirs in the village. However, the drinking water is the mountain spring water. The mountain spring water itself is sweet and flat, and has the effect of harming the stomach and stopping vomiting. When I was a child, many grandma went to grandma's house to play. Every time I passed by the spring, I begged my grandma to scoop some for her, and after drinking it, it would be a little sweet aftertaste.

Xu Bai was very eyebrowed and had already boiled a pot of water.

Place the radish juice and malt sugar on the bottom of the pot and stir in boiling water.

Because it was too hot, Xu Bai carefully tasted a little: "It's delicious!"

Fresh juice is an important component of medical food. It is mostly made of fruits, stems, leaves or roots rich in juice, and is obtained by mashing and pressing. The more famous prescription is watermelon juice, which can relieve heat. Carrot juice is suitable for cough, chest fullness, and wheezing.

Xu Bai really thinks that this radish juice tastes good and has a fresh and sweet taste. Most boys don’t like it. Of course, Xu Bai doesn’t like it either. However, just now, a piece of malt sugar was thrown away casually. In fact, the amount was a little bit too much. Compared with Xu Bai’s usual eating habits, this sweetness combines the spicy taste of the radish juice itself, which is sweet and hot. After the mouth, the sweetness quickly dissipates from the mouth and enters the heart along the throat.

Mo Li also liked the taste of carrot juice. After drinking it slowly, he slowly drank a large bowl. I wonder if it was an illusion, but he had suffered from cold these two days and coughed slightly. After drinking it, he seemed to have completely cleared his blocked throat.

Comfortable!

Many Fu poured two large cups with thermos cups and pulled Moli up: "Let's go, I'll take you to see the road."

Mo Li has been staying in Fuxing Village every day during this period. His company has to be on the construction period at the end of the year. He kept the two new members of his subordinates to supervise the worker and came here for three to five days. This time, many Fu discussed with him about the hidden dangers in Miaojiguan, and then came here specifically.

Miaoji Temple is located near the hillside of many mountains under Fubao. There are two roads to reach. One is to pass through most of the buildings planned by Duofu Sanatorium. This is a wide road. The other is to pass from Bai Agong Hospital, which is a remote path.

Many sanatoriums in Fu require a relatively quiet environment, but everyone in the village is accustomed to walking on the main road. Recently, people from other villages came to Miaoji Temple to worship and also walked on the main road. In addition to the noisy people, it is not convenient to manage crops in the ground, which has hidden dangers.

"In fact, Taoist temples are not farther from small roads than from large roads."

Mo Li: "There is only one family on this road, which is good..."

Grandma Hua was drying clothes in the yard, her eyes narrowed into a slit, and it took her a long time to see a lot of blessings. The weather-beaten folds on her face stretched out most of the time.

"Doctor Xu!"

***

Just as dawn was dawn, the old man who was sleeping in shallow sleep got up, and the cold could not stop the heat in people's hearts.

"Old man, let me put the milk on the table. I'll drink it before going to the viewing room."

Grandpa Bai took a sip of the lean meat porridge that had been boiled, and his words were not good enough to make it in his ears. He couldn't get used to drinking milk! But the doctor told him to drink milk every day, and he couldn't reason with the old woman, but he could always find it if he wanted to find fault. He stirred the porridge with chopsticks and shouted: "Is this still porridge you made? The meat is about to be cooked! You can't let me eat rice soup with you... The baby with no teeth eats this."

Grandma Hua was burning hot water and snorted: "Who couldn't chew the meat yesterday? She swallowed it in one bite and was so choked and cursed?"

Grandpa Bai: "..."

Grandma Hua poured boiling water into the pot and heard her husband's voice coming from the inner room - "I'm so old... I can't do anything, I need the old woman to raise her."

The old man who was killed this day!

He still felt sad. He couldn't overcome that hurdle. He was so tough that he said he didn't want his children to give him charity. He would never be a beggar in his life, but his children really didn't come and felt heartbroken when they saw him day by day.

Grandma Hua was about to cry, and when she heard a noise outside, she hurriedly held it back.

"Grandma Hua, is the carrot water ready?"

"Okay," Grandma Hua smiled and made a pot of radish water for the man. She had to add two corners to the disposable cup she prepared.

"Business started so early?"

The villagers came to make radish water to drink. They held the hot water bottle and whispered coldly, answered: "The village chief said that the construction started half an hour ahead of schedule today, and the road will be paved in the next two days."

Grandpa Bai's stubborn cough has healed. In the past few days, he has a better face after fish and meat. He scooped a bottle of radish water himself and walked to the yard to chat with the paving people. However, the chatting time should not be too long. He had to take the blessing card made by his wife to go to the Taoist temple. Don't look at a small piece of blessing card, it can be sold for five yuan. If someone buys it, he will wear a red rope and use a stick to help people hang it on the tree.

Anyone who comes to the Taoist temple is willing to buy it. My wife is good-looking and uses a small piece of square piece in different ways, with red paper on the other side to write about blessings, fortune, and longevity.

Dogeli!

It is easy for my wife to write such a small blessing card, and she can do multiple ones. However, Dr. Xu said that you don’t need to do too much at a time. According to the current traffic volume, it is enough to make seven or eight a day. She also said that you should not make too much radish water at a time, and just boil a pot of water and make a pot of water. Now there are few people in Taoist temples on the road, mainly for the business of road construction people. You may only sell two pots a day, and it is also an investment.

Making money mainly depends on blessing cards. Grandpa Bai thought that he didn’t have to sell seven or eight. He would be satisfied if he could sell three of them a day and would have hope for life.

On that day, all seven were sold. When Grandpa Bai went down the mountain at night, he pressed his lips and raised them up again, and tried hard to suppress them.

Both old men were very happy.

Grandpa Bai: "I didn't drag you down."

Grandma Hua was so angry that she wanted to hit this old man.

At night, Grandpa Bai lay on the bed and murmured: "Fortunately I'm not sick and went there... It's so lively now!"

The author has something to say: The example of the seven children not supporting the elderly was told by Mr. Mother Shang, who attended a funeral of a distant relative. The two elderly people lived alone on the mountain, and the seven children of the two elderly people did not support the elderly. The grandmother passed away. It is said that the money was not evenly broken and the seven families had no discussions. They fought for a few days.
