The meat they bought in the town last time was preserved with salt, and it was half marinated.The previous sauerkraut was just ready to eat. I made sauerkraut stew at noon, cut two plates of braised pork, and cooked white rice.

At the dinner table, the child was obviously very hungry, but although the action of eating was fast, it was not vulgar at all, and it seemed that he had received a good education.After eating and tidying up the kitchen, Jiang Fan took 100 taels of silver, closed the door, set up a donkey cart, tied the vegetables and chickens brought by Gu Yuantao to the donkey cart, carried Gu Yuantao into the cart, and followed the instructions given by him. route to drive.

The village of Gu Changqing's family is called Wangjia Village, and the name sounds like a village with a common family name, and Gu Changqing's family has a foreign surname inside, and this kind of family is generally easy to be excluded in such a village with a common name.Wangjia Village is much farther from Lishan Village than the town, and they drove a donkey cart for almost two hours before arriving.Thinking of the worn heel when he washed Gu Yuantao's feet before, Jiang Fan squeezed the child's hand tighter with distress.

At last they stopped in front of a thatched hut in the village that had half collapsed.

Looking at the situation in front of him, Jiang Fan couldn't accept it.Since he came to this world, he has never seen people living in such a dilapidated house.

Gu Yuantao jumped out of the car by himself, looked at Jiang Fan who was still there in a daze, and pursed his lips, "There have been two rains in a row before, the thatch on the roof was stained with water, and the rotten wood was broken." I want to say that I originally planned to sell the chicken for money and ask someone to help me fix it, but after seeing Jiang Fan's terribly shocked foolishness, I still didn't say anything.

Jiang Fan got out of the car at the urging of Zhang Shumo. At this time, Gu Yuantao was already running into the house with the bag of vegetables and the chicken. Already!"

Jiang Fan quickly followed, and as soon as he reached the door, he saw Gu Yuantao and a thin middle-aged woman helping a middle-aged man whose cheeks were sunken to the point of coming out.

When the middle-aged man saw Jiang Fan, tears streamed down his eyes. He looked at Jiang Fan, his tongue trembling, but he shouted sincerely: "Fan...Xiao Fan!"

For some reason, when Jiang Fan saw the thin man in front of him who was about to take off his human form, he thought of his dying father, or maybe the blood relationship between the original body and him was causing trouble, anyway, Jiang Fan's eyes turned red .He stepped forward to support Gu Changqing in two steps, he couldn't feel the slightest weight in his hands, and his throat was so tight that it hurt, "Uncle, Xiaofan is not filial! I didn't come to see you until now!"

Even though Gu Changqing has been dragged down by that leg for six years, it has been in pain for six years, and he has never shed a tear before. At this time, this middle-aged man is full of tears, carefully looking at the only flesh and blood of his sister and brother-in-law, He said with relief: "No, uncle doesn't blame you, uncle is ashamed of you!" At the end of the speech, he was already crying.

When he cried, the woman next to him also cried, and Gu Yuantao sobbed softly, which made Jiang Fan's eye sockets swell even more, and he tried hard to hold back the tears that were about to fall out of his eye sockets.

It is also because Gu Changqing has been suppressed for a long time in the past few years. He often thinks about ending his remaining life, but when he thinks of his brother-in-law's entrustment before his death, he dare not attack him, otherwise he will be a treacherous person after death.

This crying, crying out the silt that has been suppressed in his heart for many years, although it can't be dredged up at once, but now seeing his sister and brother-in-law's child, it can be regarded as a comfort for him when he is dying.

But this crying, the emotions were vented, Gu Changqing's body couldn't bear it at all, and he just passed out from crying.Jiang Fan and Gu Yuantao were so frightened that they hurriedly put him on the bed, but they started talking nonsense after a while.

"Quick! Shumo, lead the donkey cart and lead Yuantao to find the nearest doctor!" Jiang Fan yelled, they were not familiar with this place, so Yuantao had to lead the way to find the doctor.

"I'll go find it!" Gu Yuantao turned around and ran out, Zhang Shumo hurriedly followed.

Jiang Fan arranged for Uncle Zhang to light up the firewood stove in the yard, and the medicine will definitely be decocted later.He comforted his aunt Gu Lishi who was paralyzed all over.After wandering around the door anxiously, Gu Yuantao and Zhang Shumo walked in with an old man about sixty years old.

When Gu Li saw the old man, he felt as if he had seen a savior. He rushed over and grabbed the corner of the old man's clothes, crying so hard: "Doctor Tang, you want to save my boss, he doesn't want to live anymore, leave us alone!" Orphans and widows, how can we live!"

Doctor Tang comforted: "Don't worry, I will not let him die! Let go, don't delay my treatment!"

Gu Lishi finally stopped crying.

Doctor Tang took a piece of ginseng from his medicine box and gave it to Gu Changqing to suck, then he took out a silver needle and began to treat it.

"Mother!" An angry voice sounded outside the door, if you don't pay attention, you can't hear it.Jiang Fan opened the curtain, and there was a young woman standing outside with a pale face who looked like she was about to fall to the ground at any time. Jiang Fan knew that this should be Gu Fangqiu, the sister Gu Yuantao was talking about.

The defense of men and women in this dynasty is not as exaggerated as it is written in the book. Girls can walk around outside, such as husband and wife reconciliation, widow remarriage and women standing on top of the house are not uncommon. As long as there is no excessive contact, most people will not think about it.Seeing that Gu Fangqiu was almost unable to stand, Jiang Fan went up to hold her elbow with one hand, and supported her behind with the other, and said, "Cousin, I'm Xiaofan."

Gu Fangqiu couldn't lift his strength, so he just smiled at him, "Xiaofan, I haven't seen you for many years, and I've grown up so much."

Jiang Fan felt that Gu Fangqiu was trembling weakly all over, so he helped her into the room and asked her to go in and sit down.

As soon as Gu Lishi saw Gu Fangqiu, she realized that such a big commotion on their side had startled her daughter, who had just had a miscarriage, how could she walk around, and urged her to go back to bed and lie down.

"Mom, let me watch daddy here!" Gu Fangqiu said, "I don't feel at ease if I don't look at my daughter."

Gu Lishi looked at Gu Changqing who was unconscious on the bed, and then at his daughter who was about to faint at any moment, tears began to well up again.

Doctor Tang finally finished his work, Gu Yuantao cooked the medicine and brought it over.

"Fortunately, I vented all my emotions today, otherwise it would be even more difficult to let him hold back for a while. If he saved his life today, he will be fine for the time being. It's just that his leg is injured too badly. I'm afraid it will be like this for the rest of his life. , there is still a great hindrance to his life."

Gu Lishi looked at her old husband on the bed, choked up and said: "It's good to save him, I will persuade him more in the future." The most difficult time has survived, as long as he is still there, Gu Lishi feels Nothing could knock her down anymore.But she looked at Doctor Tang in embarrassment, "I don't know how much the medicine costs today, I'm afraid my family won't be able to pay for it for a while..."

There must be a lot of money for medicine today, and the life-threatening ginseng alone is not cheap.

"I won't accept anything else, but that ginseng is a bit more expensive, it costs ten taels." Sure enough, as soon as Doctor Tang paid for the medicine, Gu Lishi felt dizzy for a while.Ten taels, this must have been underpaid by Doctor Tang, and now I can't save a tael of silver in a year, ten taels, when will I be able to pay it back!

Twelve taels is indeed not a small amount, but Jiang Fan still has this.He followed Doctor Tang who was carrying the medicine box, stopped Doctor Tang who was about to leave, took a twelve tael silver ingot and handed it to Doctor Tang with both hands, "I'm sorry to trouble Doctor Tang today, thanks to you and my uncle I can keep it for a while." Life."

Doctor Tang looked at Jiang Fan in surprise. He didn't take a closer look in the room just now, but saw a tender white fat man with a kind face in front of him, and asked doubtfully, "I don't know who you are?"

Jiang Fan said: "Young Jiang Fan, Gu Changqing is my mother's only elder brother, and I am his nephew."

Doctor Tang saw that his words and deeds were very good, and looked back at the dilapidated thatched cottage, he was sure that with the help of this nephew, Gu Changqing's family would surely get through the current difficulties safely.Immediately, he took the ten taels of silver ingots, and said: "In the future, if you have something to do, just ask boy Tao to come to me, he knows where my home is."

Jiang Fan cupped his fists, "Thank you in advance, junior!"

Doctor Tang waved his hand politely, turned and left.

Jiang Fan turned around, and saw Gu Lishi standing behind, looking at her with red and swollen eyes.

Jiang Fan walked over and said to her, "Auntie, I have already heard Yuantao tell you what happened to you in the past few years. Back then, I hated my uncle for not coming to see my mother and father off, but I didn't know that my grandmother stopped me behind the scenes. It was because my nephew was stupid and didn't believe it. As a human being, uncle has never thought of going to check it out. For the suffering that uncle has suffered in the past few years, you can blame me and hate me as much as you want, and nephew will not have a single complaint."

Gu Lishi smiled instead, "What nonsense are you talking about? Back then, your uncle was able to save his life thanks to your father's protection. We, on the other hand, later learned about your difficulties in the Jiang family, but we have never been able to help you A group, now that you have returned to the countryside, we only learned about it from other people. These years, you have had a hard time, and our family will not speak of those two dialects. "

Hearing this, Jiang Fan was determined.

Back in the room, Gu Changqing had already woken up, thinking that seeing Jiang Fan earlier was just a dream, and he was crying to see Jiang Fan!Seeing Jiang Fan coming in, his eyes turned red again.

Jiang Fan hurried over, "Uncle, you can't be too excited now, don't worry your aunt, cousin and us anymore."

Gu Changqing then smiled embarrassedly with red eyes, crying in front of a junior at such an old age.Then he looked at his wife and daughter apologetically. In the past few years, he has really dragged them down.

Jiang Fan called Gu Yuantao over and said, "Go and tidy up your bedding, find some ropes, and tie them to the donkey cart later, and come with us with your parents and sister later. "

Gu Yuantao turned his head to look at Gu Changqing, but Gu Changqing waved his hand and refused: "Xiaofan, what are you doing! We live here well, what are we going to do with you!"

Gu Lishi also said: "That's right, what are we talking about in the past!"

Jiang Fan raised his finger to the thatched hut and said, "Is this house still liveable? Two spring rains can knock down half of the house. You should be glad that those logs didn't overwhelm people at that time. What will happen when there are thunderstorms and heavy rains in the future?" ?” He pointed to the room, “I’m afraid the whole room will be filled with basins and barrels to catch the rain!”
