Yang Huazhong said: "I will go to the county seat when it arrives!"
Cao Bamei immediately said: "I'm going too. I just happened to take the children to the county town to find Yongjin."
Yang Yongxian said: "Third uncle, if this is the case, then you go to the county town to accompany me to treat the disease, and the father-in-law will leave this to our brothers, so that you will not have any worries!"
Yang Huazhong nodded: "Okay!"
Old Yangtou felt quite relieved when he saw that everyone was discussing the treatment together and taking care of the disabled old man into consideration.
"Seeing that all of you have such filial piety, I feel so happy for your mother," Old Yang said.
"There are gods three feet above your head. God will definitely take care of your filial piety and let me get better soon."
Everyone nodded one after another, I hope so. As the same saying goes, don’t ask for no results but ask for no mistakes. If you treat it, at least you won’t regret it when you look back on it in the future.
It was settled that we would go to town in five days.
Why is it set five days later?
Because things at home have to be arranged, Mr. Tan still has to spend some time on ideological work.
Finally, and most importantly: the weather has not been very good these past few days, it has been gloomy and it may rain in the past two days.
Wait until it rains and the weather gets better before going to the town hospital for treatment, lest the brain disease is not cured and the old lady gets caught in the rain and catches the cold, which is even worse.
After the matter was finalized, everyone dispersed one after another, and Mrs. Sun was also preparing to go to Lao Wang's house to pick up Mr. Tan.
Yang Huazhong said: "I'll pick up my mother, and you stay at home to cook. It's almost noon, and my parents are probably hungry."
Mrs. Sun nodded: "Okay, then I'll cook quickly."
In the backyard, Mrs. Sun pinched a handful of leeks, two handfuls of green vegetables, and cut a cabbage in the small vegetable garden behind the yard.
I washed it clean in the well next to it, took it back to the kitchen, and started to tidy up.
In the big pot, I washed the rice and cooked it. I took a hanging bacon from under the beam, washed it with rice washing water, cut it into thin slices, and put them neatly in a bowl.
When the rice soup boils and is about to be taken out, place the bacon next to the rice and simmer it.
In the small pot outside, stir-fry leeks with dried shreds in sauce, minced green vegetables with garlic, and wash a few chili peppers to stir-fry a bowl of chili scrambled eggs.
The cabbage was not idle either. Sun fried the cabbage with sweet potato vermicelli, sprinkled some red dry chili peppers on top, and drizzled a few drops of sesame oil.
Five dishes are enough for four people!
Sun's food was ready, but Yang Huazhong hadn't picked up Tan yet.
Old Yangtou was smoking a cigarette in the dining hall and waiting. The longer he waited, the more anxious he became. He couldn't bear to put down the cigarette pole and pushed his wheelchair to the door of the hall to look around.
"Dad, are you hungry? Do you want to eat first?" Mrs. Sun came from the backyard and asked.
Lao Yangtou shook his head: "I'm not too hungry, but I'm just a little worried. How come the third brother has been away for so long and hasn't picked him up yet? Did something happen again?"
"Logically speaking, no!" said Sun, who also looked outside together: "My mother is going to Mei'er, Mei'er will take good care of her."
"If that's the case, then why haven't you come back yet?" Old Yangtou asked again. The old man looked at his legs and sighed: "Hey, if these legs don't work, I will really be a useless person. I want to go The situation can't be improved no matter where you look, it's better to die than live like this..."
After hearing Lao Yangtou's self-pitying words, Mrs. Sun realized something later.
She hurriedly said: "Dad, don't worry, I'll go to Lao Wang's house to see what's going on."
Ms. Sun didn't even bother to take off her apron and ran out of the main room. As soon as she arrived at the door of the courtyard, she met Yang Huazhong and Mr. Tan.
Mrs. Sun was overjoyed: "I was just going to look for you to come back for dinner, but by chance you came back."
Yang Huazhong carried Mr. Tan in and said to Mr. Sun: "I was supposed to come back earlier. Mei'er happened to be cooking noodles for Dabai. My mother also said she was hungry, so Mei'er cooked two bowls and returned them to my mother's shop. I bought two poached eggs, and I waited there for my mother to finish eating before coming back."
It turned out that this was what happened, Mrs. Sun understood, and she followed and helped Ms. Tan walk towards the main room. In the short distance of more than ten steps from the entrance of the courtyard to the door of the main room, Mrs. Tan burped three times.
After entering the main room, Lao Yangtou didn't say anything and just asked Sun to serve the meal.
Mr. Tan sat aside drinking tea, still burping.
All the food was served on the table. Out of the filial piety of a younger generation, Mrs. Sun came to Ms. Tan and asked her softly: "Mom, we have steamed bacon and scrambled eggs with spicy pepper. Do you want to eat some more?"
When Mrs. Tan heard this, her gray brows suddenly stood up and she said angrily: "What are you talking about? What do you mean eating a little? I, the mother-in-law, can't eat the rice you cooked?" "
Mrs. Sun was stunned for a moment, confused, and quickly explained carefully: "Mom, that's not what I meant. I was worried that you wouldn't be able to eat it..."
Mrs. Tan interrupted Mrs. Sun and said fiercely: "If you don't want to feed this blind old woman like me, just say so. No need to beat around the bush! What do you mean you can't eat? I haven't had lunch yet and my stomach is full." It’s flat, why can’t it be eaten?”
Sun was dumbfounded and couldn't help but look up at Yang Huazhong.
Yang Huazhong was also stunned for a moment, as if he was thinking of something. He said to Mrs. Tan: "Mother, Qing'er mother really doesn't mean any harm. You really misunderstood her this time. I just went to Mei'er's house to pick you up." When you came back, you obviously ate a bowl of noodles there, and you praised Mel's fried poached eggs for being so good, have you forgotten?"
This time, it was Tan Shileng.
"What? I ate poached egg noodles at Mei'er's house? Why don't I remember that?" Tan said with a confused look.
Yang Huazhong and Sun looked at each other with solemn eyes.
Lao Yangtou, who was sitting in the main seat, also had a gloomy face, full of sorrow and mist, and the entire atmosphere in the room was depressed.
Mrs. Sun's eyes flashed and she said, "Mom, maybe you have forgotten, that's okay. Come, let's have lunch."
Mrs. Sun helped Mrs. Tan to sit down at the table, loaded rice and vegetables for Tan.
The bowl of rice in front of Tan quickly ran out of food.
"Well, this bacon tastes good and goes very well with rice!" Mrs. Tan wiped the corners of her mouth after finishing her meal and praised it.
Mrs. Sun smiled and said, "If Mom likes to eat it, I will make it for you every now and then."
Mrs. Tan nodded and went to the yard to bask in the sun.
Lao Yangtou did not go outside to visit, but sat in the other corner of the yard to accompany Tan to bask in the sun.
The old man knew that days like this would probably be few in the future. When the time comes, Mr. Tan won’t recognize him, and no one will be able to recall the little moments of his youth with him when he can’t sleep in the middle of the night. The old man’s nose felt sore inexplicably. , I feel the urge to cry...
