Early the next morning, before dawn, Debao got up early.
Ma Huashui walked out of the hut with his belt in hand, "I can't shout normally, why did I get up so early today?"
"Brother Wang Zhong and I have agreed that I, Shui Wang and Ga Wa will drive his van to the town to pick up Teacher Bai and the others."
"You're a coward. If you don't do your job well, you'll be deserting me again!" Ma Huashui pretended to fight, but Debao, this kid, was as slippery as a loach, and he was far away in a few clicks.
"Dad! I don't want to call you deserting. Brother Wang Zhong is so busy. If you ask him to help pick up Teacher Bai, you might as well let me, Shui Wang and Ga Wa go!"
"You bastard!" Ma Huashui said with a stern face: "Hurry up and wake up Gawa too. It's almost dawn, why are you still sleeping?"
After breakfast, Debao led Gawa and Shuiwang and drove Wang Zhong's van straight to the town.
Ma Huashui didn't go with him. He was cooking with Gawa's mother at home, preparing to meet Teacher Bai and others.
Not long after Debao and Gawa left, Wang Zhong arrived at Ma Huanshui's house carrying a medicine box.
"Here we come!" Seeing Wang Zhong, Ma Shoanshui immediately greeted him with a smile.
"Debao and the others are gone?" Wang Zhong asked as he walked inside.
"I left early in the morning. Isn't that why I left in your van?"
"This coward has grown up and become wild-minded. No matter what he does now, he doesn't even say hello to me!" Ma Huashui sighed and said with a sigh on his face.
"This kid is grown up and has his own ideas, which is not necessarily a bad thing. If an adult interferes blindly, the effect may not be good, especially for someone like Debao who has never experienced any big things and has not enough experience. What is needed is proper guidance.”
"I also know this truth, but...hey!" As he spoke, Ma Huashui sighed, waved his hands and said: "Forget it, let's not talk about it. Anyway, Debao is following you now, I rest assured."
Wang Zhong smiled and said: "Uncle, if you say that, the pressure on my shoulders will be great!"
"He who can do it should work harder!" Ma Huashui also said with a smile, "I don't expect Debao to have any great future. As long as he learns a craft from you, I will be satisfied!"
"Debao is a kid. Although he is not very old, he has a flexible mind and learns things quickly, but he just can't settle down. The better he learns a craft, the more he is exposed to inner things and the more he knows. The world is just like yearning.”
"As the old saying goes, a good man has his ambitions in all directions. This is not a bad thing!"
"There are some things that are dangerous. Only if he has experienced them himself and seen them with his own eyes can he know how good his family is, how much his parents, brothers, aunts and cousins are worth cherishing."
"Hey!" Ma Huashui sighed again, "That's what I'm worried about!"
"His aunt's illness has been good and bad. In the past few years, Gawa has gotten older and better. I'm afraid that if he leaves, Gawa will also... ··”
At this point, Ma Huashui's words suddenly stopped and he looked in the direction of the kitchen.
"How the hell is Gawa doing lately?" Needless to say, Wang Zhong knew why Ma Huashui suddenly stopped talking, but he didn't have any good ideas for this, so he asked instead.
Ma Huashui said: "It's just like that, I can't see any changes."
Wang Zhong smiled and said: "No change is the best news. As long as the disease no longer occurs, it means that the situation has been getting better."
"That's right, her apathy disorder has not occurred for several years! It's thanks to you that you have given her regular acupuncture every month for several years."
"Acupuncture only stimulates the circulation of her qi and blood and smoothes the meridians. The most important thing is Gawa, which gives her something to think about and something to rely on."
"Gawa is the best medicine for her disease!"
The two were talking when suddenly Gawa's mother's voice came from the kitchen.
"Wang Zhong is back!"
Gawa's mother came out of the kitchen, still wearing an apron in front of her body. Her hands were full of water, so she wiped them with the apron.
Wang Zhong replied: "Auntie, are you looking better and better?"
"What a good thing! It's not the same as before!" As soon as Gawa's mother saw Wang Zhong, a smile appeared on her dark face.
Ma Huanshui waved to Gawa's mother and said, "Okay, okay, let's put the things at hand aside. It's rare for Wang Zhong to come here, so come here quickly and let me take a pulse."
After entering the house, Wang Zhong and Gawa's mother sat side by side on the Kang table. Wang Zhong took out the pulse pillow from the medicine box and asked Gawa's mother to put her hand on the pulse pillow. With the presence of the old man Wang Zhong, he called Gawa's mother. Check the pulse.
If Wang Zhong's face didn't look too young, it would be a standard picture of an old Chinese doctor's pulse diagnosis by stroking his beard.
After a few minutes, Wang Zhong let go of his hand, stepped forward and said, "Auntie, open your mouth and stick out your tongue to see!"
Gawa's mother hurriedly opened her mouth and stuck out her tongue. Wang Zhong rolled up Gawa's mother's eyelids again and looked at the whites of her eyes. Based on the pulse diagnosis just now, he felt confident.
"Auntie, you are almost recovered from your illness, but you still need to pay attention to rest. You can work, but not too tired. It is best to get some hot water every night before going to bed. Put a little ginger and pepper and keep soaking it. For your feet, sleep for at least eight hours a day, squint for half an hour at noon, and maintain a regular schedule. Everything else should be the same as before."
"Okay, I understand!" Gawa's mother said with a smile.
"Then you guys sit down first and I'll finish cleaning up the kitchen!"
Looking at the back of Gawa's mother going out, Ma Huanshui felt a little complicated.
"Chong Wazi, is his aunt's illness really cured?" Ma Huashui approached Wang Zhong, lowered his voice, and asked impatiently, his eyes filled with a brother's worry and concern for his sister.
Wang Zhong said with a smile: "Uncle Shui, don't worry. My aunt's illness is caused by a heavy blow to the head. The blood in the brain compressed the nerves. After so many years, she has almost recovered, but the sequelae are more serious. In the past few years, I gave her acupuncture and massage to stimulate the acupuncture points and meridians to smooth the blood vessels. Now my aunt's body will be very healthy. As long as she is no longer stimulated, she will not get sick again."
"That's good! That's good!" Ma Shoanshui also had a smile on his face.
"But uncle, you still have to be more careful with Gawa, but you must not let Gawa run away like his father."
"If he dares to run, I will break his legs." Ma shouted, his eyes were as big as copper bells, and he was full of momentum like an angry lion.
Wang Zhong said: "No, no, I think it's best for you to sit down and have a good talk with Gawa. Even if he really wants to go out, whether he wants to see the outside world or go to his father, as long as he Instead of running away quietly, Yueyue also wrote a letter home to let Gawa's mother have some concerns and thoughts, which should still work."
But these words, what Wang Zhong said are not as certain as those before. After all, the complexity of the human brain is so complex that even with such advanced medical conditions in real society, one cannot even say that he knows everything about it, let alone the current conditions. .
"Besides, if he really wants to run out, you can tie him to the waistband with a rope, but you will always take a nap. If he runs away at that time, where will you look for him? ?”
Ma Huashui lowered his head and was silent for a long time, then raised his eyes to Wang Zhong and asked, "Talk to him?"
"It's best to sit down and let everyone talk openly. If he really wants to go out, what else can you do besides support him?"
Ma Huanshui lowered his head again, but this time he stopped making a sound and became silent. Just as Wang Zhong said, what else could he do, could he really break Ga Wa's legs?
Gawa’s mother is the lifeblood of Ma Huanshui, isn’t Gawa the same?
Xiao Gawa grew up in front of Ma Huanshui, and she was his sister's only flesh and blood. Ma Huashui spoke cruelly, but how could he be willing to be cruel.
······
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Debao was driving a van on the way back to Jintan Village. Mai Miao was sitting in the passenger seat. There was a lot of luggage tied with hemp ropes on top of the van. The inside of the van was also packed with people.
Knowing that Teacher Bai was coming, the old party secretary rarely left his work in the kiln factory and went directly to the town station to pick up Teacher Bai and followed them back to Jintan Village.
The car drove directly to the school that had just been built not long ago. Although Teacher Bai was just a rural teacher, he was well-established and did not have to build his own house like the villagers. When the school was built, it was specially built for him and Mai Miao. Two rooms and an office.
Everyone helped move the luggage into the dormitory.
The old party secretary stood next to the car, looking at the new school building that had just been completed. A bright smile appeared on his old face with ravines, and his eyes were full of longing and expectation for the future.
Although the old party secretary has not read a few books, he also knows the principle of rejuvenating the country through science and education.
As a kid from a banker's family, if you want to get ahead and succeed, there are many ways and methods, but for now, the easiest and fairest one is to study.
Because it was an appointment, today is the day when Wang Zhong will give Gawa’s mother a follow-up consultation. Originally, Ma Huanshui planned to go with Wang Zhong to the town to pick up Teacher Bai after the follow-up consultation with Gawa’s mother. Unexpectedly, Debao and the others Take the initiative to take the job.
"Teacher Bai!" Wang Zhong respects Teacher Bai quite a lot. After all, he is a teacher who sincerely cares for the children and his students.
Knowing that people had arrived, Wang Zhong led Shui Hua and the two dolls to the school. Wang Zhong stretched out his hand to shake hands with Teacher Bai and said hello, while Shui Hua and Mai Miao were reminiscing next to them.
"It's safe and sound, call me auntie!" Shui Hua and Mai Miao have a good relationship. It can be said that they are like sisters. After not seeing each other for so long, it is inevitable to get close to each other.
It's a pity that Ping An Ping Shun is a bit too naive. The first time he saw Mai Miao, he didn't even give her a hug, he just clung to the water flowers.
Moreover, the two younger ones are only over a year old and have just started to learn to call people. Now only their parents can call them clearly.
Teacher Bai looked at the villagers in front of him and the silver-white hair that was emerging one after another on their heads. Suddenly, he felt emotion in his heart: "You have worked hard these past few years!"
"It's indeed a bit hard. I haven't done anything else in the past few years and have been eating sand all day long!" Although this is a bit exaggerated, it also describes the experience of these first batch of people who came to Diaozhuang in recent years.
There is nothing else in Yuquanying, but there is a lot of wind and sand. It is really just one wind every year. From spring to winter, there are strong winds and light winds every day. There are almost no days of rest throughout the year. The wind brings, It's all sand.
He opened his mouth to say something, but before he could finish speaking, he ate a mouthful of sand.
Teacher Bai was a little excited and felt quite complicated.
"Teacher Bai, let me tell you, if the wind blows, you must squint your eyes and don't open your mouth when you face the wind. The best thing is to cover your mouth, nose, eyes and ears." Li Dayi Xiang is a live treasure, but he is also funny when he jokes.
"Teacher Bai..."
"No, I should call you Principal Bai now!"
"Principal Bai, don't listen to him. He's getting more and more stupid every day without saying anything reliable!" The old party secretary almost hit Li Dayou with a stick.
"Principal Bai! It's great that you're here. The children have books to read! You can also come with us," the old secretary said sincerely.
Although the number of households coming to Diaozhuang has been increasing in the past few years, only the young and middle-aged from each household, and the old, weak, women and children have all stayed in Xihaigu.
It would be hard to find another person like the old branch secretary who is still on the front line in his late teens, leading by example, and bringing his son and grandson to Diaozhuang with him in the entire Yuquanying resettlement area.
"Old party secretary, are you in good health?" Teacher Bai has stayed in Yongquan Village for many years, and the villagers have long regarded him and Mai Miao as part of Yongquan Village.
"Okay! It's fine!" the old party secretary replied with a smile.
Teacher Bai looked at the old party secretary's hair, which was originally only mixed with some silver threads, but now his beard and hair were completely white, and he felt quite complicated.
Fortunately, his body is still strong. He only has his hands behind his back and no crutches. But his waist, which was already bent by the heavy farm work, looks even more bent now.
After greeting everyone and chatting for a while, Ma Huashui took Teacher Bai and Mai Miao to his house for dinner.
Teacher Bai's arrival has injected a lot of vitality into Jintan Village. Many villagers have already begun to think about taking over their daughter-in-law's dolls that they left in their hometown.
In the evening, after dinner, Wang Zhong and Shui Hua played with the two children in the yard and taught them how to walk.
Li Laoshuan carefully bowed his body and followed behind the doll, for fear of bumping into him. Wang Zhong made a recliner. The old god was leaning on the recliner, holding a cattail leaf fan in one hand and a ceramic teapot in the other.
"My father-in-law, don't keep following me, let them go by themselves! The baby is almost two years old and can leave." Wang Zhong couldn't help but smile when he saw Li Laoshuan's cautious look.
"You coward, how old are these babies? Just let them go on their own. What if they fall and knock themselves?" Li Laoshuan rolled his eyes at Wang Zhong and said angrily.
Originally, Li Laoshuan was satisfied with Wang Zhong in every aspect, but it was his attitude towards the two little kids Ping An and Shun that made Li Laoshuan have an opinion on Wang Zhong, the wealthy son-in-law, for the first time.
"Without a few more falls, how can these brothers learn to walk? I just want them to walk on their own. If they fall a few more times, they will gradually become more stable."
"Okay, okay, you rest, I'll just watch them!" Li Laoshuan still insisted, carefully following Ping An, and Shui Hua stood behind Ping Shun, with a smile on his face.
"Brother Wang Zhong!" Debao's voice came from outside the door.
"Debao! Come in!"
As soon as Wang Zhong finished speaking, Debao took the wheat seedlings into Wang Zhong's courtyard.
"Sister Shuihua! Uncle Lao Shuan! Brother Wang Zhong!"
This wheat seedling looks well-behaved and clever, but in fact he has a rebellious temperament.
"The wheat seedlings are here!"
"Bring your own stool and sit on it!" Wang Zhong didn't even get up and was still lying on the recliner. Debao walked into the house and moved a bench by himself.
Mai Miao chatted with Shui Hua for a while, teasing Ping An and Ping Shun together, but she didn't feel offended at all.
We met for a while during the day, and after playing for a while, Ping An, Ping Shun, and Mai Miao became familiar with each other. Shui Hua taught her to call her aunt, but her pronunciation was not very clear and she could only pronounce each word one by one.
Debao also giggled as he watched.
"Brother Wang Zhong!"
"Mai Miao just came here and is looking for a job. Can you see if there is any job suitable for Mai Miao?" Still Debao, knowing Wang Zhong's temperament, did not beat around the bush, but went straight to the point.
"Mai Miao wants to find a job?" Wang Zhong took a sip of tea, and his eyes immediately fell on Mai Miao. The little girl was not tall, and her figure was quite thin. She had no breasts, a pair of braids, and a little bit on her face. Dirty and dusty, she looked young and cute, but unfortunately she wasn't Wang Zhong's type.
Wang Zhong likes people like Shui Hua and Zheng Juan, who are plump but not slender. For Wang Zhong, they are the kind of thin bamboo poles like Mai Miao that can be viewed from a distance but not played with.
In the past, Wang Zhong would definitely not have such thoughts, but with the system, Wang Zhong, who has experienced two dungeon worlds, is no longer the former Wu Xia Amen.
"Well! Debao said that Brother Wang Zhong is capable and warm-hearted, and he will definitely be able to help me find a good job." The little girl is quite good at talking.
Shui Hua's eyes flickered slightly, and she was a little moved, but she didn't say anything. She just looked at Wang Zhong and hesitated to speak.
Wang Zhongdao: "There must be a job, but I at least want to know what you have done! What can you do?"
Mai Miao said: "I sold goods at the county supply and marketing cooperative."
"That's the only thing?" Wang Zhong said in disbelief.
Facing Wang Zhong's somewhat strange gaze, Mai Miao suddenly felt uncomfortable all over, lowered her head and responded softly: "Yes!"
Wang Zhong looked back and said, "I heard from Debao that you graduated from junior high school?"
"Um!"
"If you don't mind it, then I will follow your sister Shuihua first, be her assistant, and learn from her for a while. After two years, I will arrange other jobs for you based on your abilities!"
"I am willing!"
"Thank you Brother Wang Zhong, thank you Sister Shuihua!"
······
At night, after some tenderness, Shuihua was sweating and leaned against Wang Zhong. The electric fan beside him was blowing, and the two little guys were sleeping on the other side of the kang table covered with thin quilts.
"You bastard, what should I do if you wake up the baby!" After the passion, Shui Hua felt that her whole body was soft and she didn't want to move.
"I'm the one who should complain!" Wang Zhong held Shui Hua's hand, rubbed his thumb in his palm, and said angrily: "I worked so hard to serve you, and you still complain!"
Shui Hua listened to Wang Zhong's weird tone, and her heart was pounding. Suddenly she heard Wang Zhong say: "No, it seems that I didn't serve you well. I have to do it again to show you what I am capable of."
Before Shui Hua could react, her little mouth was stamped.
"Don't wake the baby up!" Shui Hua put her hands on her chest to block Wang Zhong, and whispered softly, like a mosquito whispering.
Wang Zhong chuckled: "Wake up when you wake up. We can coax you. The most important thing right now is to take care of you!"
More than half an hour later.
"Mai Miao, what are your plans?" Shuihua leaned against Wang Zhong's chest again, drawing circles with his index finger.
I don't know why, but every woman that Wang Zhong has experienced after going to Wushan together, his favorite one is leaning on Wang Zhong's chest and tracing circles with his fingers.
"What else can we plan? She doesn't know anything now, her education level is not high, she is still young, she has not seen much of the world, and she has no ability or experience as a leader. Whether it is a brick kiln or a construction team, she can do any job. It’s not what she can do now, what else can she do except follow you.”
"This kid, Mai Miao, is careful, not afraid of hardship, and has a lot of perseverance. Although he is a girl, he is not necessarily worse than Debao and the others."
Mai Miao likes to play with Shui Hua since she was a child. The two of them are also very familiar with each other. It is precisely because they know Mai Miao that Shui Hua said this.
"If jade is not polished, it will not become a tool; if a person is not tempered, he will not become something!"
"Mai Miao is a smart girl, but unfortunately she is too rebellious. If only she had listened to Teacher Bai, studied hard, gone to school, and not even been admitted to college, but had only been admitted to a technical secondary school, she would have been considered a talent."
"Hey!" Talking about this, Shui Hua felt regretful. At first, she wanted to study and take the exam, but unfortunately her father Li Laoshuan couldn't afford it and didn't want to. As for Mai Miao, Teacher Bai was only focused on it. I wanted her to study and take the exam, but she was unwilling to go. After graduating from junior high school, she went straight to find a job.
It can only be said that things in the world are impermanent and fate has its way with people.
But luckily! He now has Wang Zhong.
Shuihua looked up at Wang Zhong. In fact, Wang Zhong was not as good-looking as the two brothers Defu and Debao. Even at first glance, Lian Shuiwang was not as good-looking as Wang Zhong. Wang Zhong had a Chinese character face, with a wide forehead, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a band between his eyebrows. He looks somewhat rugged and heroic, very good-looking, and tall and burly in stature.
With Wang Zhong's appearance and physique, he was extremely popular among girls in this era and decades before.
On the contrary, in the real society, this kind of appearance is not very flattering. I don’t know what’s wrong with women nowadays. They are so obsessed with pretty girls who look delicate and even put on make-up. They look girly and have no masculinity at all. Soft spot.
People like Wang Zhong were born with a lot of education and a very high level of education. They knew everything, from working in the fields to carpentry and masonry, drawing and designing, and even writing,
"Then I will take her for two years and teach her accounting!"
"Mai Miao has a flexible mind and will definitely learn quickly!"
