Taoyuan Farmhouse Daily
Chapter 83 The Orphan
Chang Xile originally thought that regardless of whether it was based on the physical strength of men and women, or the ratio of men to women in Taoyuan Village, the number of men in the first batch of training should be more men than women.
But he underestimated the importance women attached to this matter, and for some reason, this group of women's soldiers were particularly active.That's all for married women, but even usually shy girls actively signed up, and Li Zheng was too embarrassed to refuse with such enthusiasm.
However, the number of places is limited, and there are always people who are not selected, and the result is that they burst into tears.Li Zheng hurriedly comforted him that there would be another time, and then he calmed down.
If you see more men than women, I'm afraid that under the leadership of Dayingzi, the world will be turned upside down.If a woman makes a fuss, it is much more terrifying than a man, and she can't go up and kick it violently to suppress it. Li Zheng can't, so she can only split men and women in half.
Chang Xile was a little surprised when he heard the description.
Although he has consciously instilled the awareness of equality between men and women over the years, he has never advocated this point of view carelessly, but pays more attention to cultivating the concept of self-reliance, self-improvement and self-respect for women.Let them not belittle themselves and let them know that they have their backs.
Moreover, this kind of thinking is only promoted in Chang's family and workshops. After all, he can't drag everyone to meetings every day, and then crackling and giving speeches.He is only based on the economic basis, and then consciously guides and affirms everyone's labor and value.
In the workshop, a special corporate culture is created to make female workers more confident.This is why everyone feels differently when they see the women workers in the workshop.Because the whole atmosphere makes their temperament different.A woman who works hard and feels that everything should be done, and minimizes her own existence, and a woman who is confident, financially independent and self-affirming must give people different feelings.
Although Chang Xile knew that the atmosphere in the workshop would spread, after all, the female workers also interacted with other people, and their emotions would also infect others.Especially the entire Taoyuan Village respects his point of view without any doubts, and it is easier to affirm and accept such cognition.
But in any case, it's only been a few years, and it is generally difficult for deeply ingrained ideas to undergo major changes.
And what Chang Xile thinks is subtly, worrying that challenging the secular world too radically will only make these women not get good results, so every step is very slow.
Unexpectedly, everything still exceeded his expectations.These women have already begun to have their own demands, especially in this kind of matter, which shows that they have very actively wanted to become a member of this village, rather than a vassal that can be discarded at any time.
Chang Xile liked this, so she defaulted to the configuration of the first batch, which also encouraged and affirmed everyone's enthusiasm.After all this has passed, men are still the main body.After all, there are many more strong men than women in Taoyuan Village. No matter what the considerations are, the ratio cannot be the same.
The physical fitness of men and women is different, except for the special case of Dayingzi, it is not reasonable to train in the same way.
There is still some time before the actual training, Chang Yu and Chang Xile made a training plan together before starting the training.Every step is justified and not random.
The two of them started working together when they were training Chang Yu.One is technical guidance, and the other is to try it yourself, and the effect is very remarkable.
Although Chang Xile is not physically strong, her theoretical knowledge is not bad, especially because she was ill in the past, learned simple acupuncture and moxibustion, is quite familiar with the human body, and has read some related books, etc., so she can provide some experience on this.
Chang Yu, on the other hand, is born with developed motor nerves, and is quite sensitive to these things, as long as he is taught a little bit, he can comprehend them.This point is not only on himself, but also fully demonstrated when training the children of the Chang family.
Chang Xile just told Chang Yu everything he knew. He knew many things were useful but didn't know the reason behind them. If he copied them, he might be uncomfortable.But Chang Yu was able to figure out the reason after mastering the knowledge, and then put it on each child after transformation.
Myolie can be so good, it is enough to prove his ability.
So although Chang Xile still participated this time, she was more of a bystander and an insider, offering some suggestions occasionally, and the main body was Chang Yu.Chang Yu's current ability does not need him to worry at all.
The training has not yet started, and the Spring Festival has come first.
Every year, Taoyuan Village is very lively, because every year, opera troupes and jugglers are invited to come and perform, so at this time, not only people from Taoyuan Village, but also people from other villages come to watch regardless of the distance. big drama.
And this year, because the canal was opened, and Chang Xile, Chang Yu, and Song Wancheng, who is half of Taoyuan Village, all won the election, Lizheng waved his hand and asked Chang Xisheng to invite the troupe and jugglers from the mansion to the village show here.
Although it wasn't the most famous theater troupe in the mansion, it was much better than those in the county, and they sang operas they had never heard of.And the juggling made everyone dumbfounded, especially the children who couldn't even roll their eyes, and didn't even know that the halazi fell.
Those performing jugglers swallowed fire and breathed fire, and juggled to kill the living people, or conjured up a bunch of candy birds and so on, and even more exaggerated, they performed cutting techniques. Both halves are fine!
When the knife was cut, many women and children couldn't help screaming and covered their eyes, but some couldn't help but spread their fingers slightly to find out.But when he opened his eyes, he didn't see the bloody scene he had imagined. The man waved his hands and greeted everyone with a smile on his upper body, while his legs on the lower body were still moving.After the two boxes were put together again, the man stood up again intact.
Some aunts couldn't hold back, and didn't care if the other party was a shirtless man, she just leaned forward to take a closer look, and sighed: "Why doesn't this even have a scar?"
Everyone roared with laughter, immediately pushing the atmosphere to its climax.
The performances in the past few days have caused everyone to discuss for a whole year. Many people have never seen it and are envious, and some people suspect that it is an exaggeration.It can be seen that everyone said so and could only regret that they didn't go to see it at that time, which caused more people in Taoyuan Village the next year.
Gradually, it has become a habit to gather in Taoyuan Village to watch theaters during Chinese New Year.If you haven't experienced such an experience, it will be as if you haven't experienced it this year.
Although there were too many people in those few days because of this, Lizheng was well organized, so there was no trouble.Moreover, the people who can occupy the best positions are all from Taoyuan Village, so there is no hindrance, and it will not make everyone feel that they have paid for themselves, and it turns out that it is cheaper for people from other villages.
Not only that, some of them were active, and took advantage of the crowds to start a small business, selling some snacks or gadgets.I didn't expect to make a lot of money, and my heart is even more beautiful this New Year's Eve.
Chang Xile looked at it for a while and then left. Although the weather was very bright these days, he was still wearing a thick cotton coat and a cloak to wrap himself tightly around him. He was holding a hand warmer in his hand. The configuration is comparable to that of the elderly and frail old people in the village, but it still feels very uncomfortable after a long time.
The weather here is colder than in the previous life, probably because Taoyuan Village is in the deep mountains, it is especially bitter in winter.Maybe this is the case. The low temperature in winter freezes many insect eggs to death, so that there will not be so many insect pests in the coming year.This is also one of the reasons why Taoyuan Village's production can be effectively improved after the fertility of Taoyuan Village catches up.Because it is not attacked by too many pests, and there is also the defense of tea dry water, there is no need to worry about these.
It's just that this kind of weather is not so easy for Chang Xile.Especially when he first came here, he suffered from the cold at night, and that feeling was really unbearable to recall.Fortunately, he found a way to keep warm - hugging Chang Yu, which allowed him to sleep well at night.
Chang Yu is the complete opposite of him, he can run outside with his bare arms in winter, he looks like a little sun.So when I hugged him to sleep, I also became warm.
It was also because of this that Chang Xile couldn't refuse Chang Yu's hug. After all, she hugged him when she needed it, and it was unkind for the other party to refuse him when she wanted to hug him.At the beginning, he didn't notice Chang Yu's strange thoughts, and he didn't think about it, so Chang's family was concerned about whether he would be cold at night, and he was very proud to say that he had Chang Yu, and it was warm to sleep with him.
This also makes the Chang family feel that it is reasonable for two people to sleep together even if they are not young.
Whenever Chang Xile was outside, she always felt frightened by the cold, nothing else, it was still very warm in the sun, but her feet couldn't get warm no matter what.It's better if you keep walking, but standing still is not good.So letting him watch a show or juggle outside all the time, it won't last long.
Moreover, the doctor also explained before that he cannot be exposed to cold, otherwise he will not show it for a while, and he will be in trouble when he gets old.Chang Xile didn't like to watch the show very much, and he was not interested in singing, and the juggling he had seen in the past was more exciting than now, and it was nothing unusual, it was enough to see it once and know what was going on.
Therefore, there is no regret in leaving, but seeing Chang Yu also follow, I can't help but feel that I have influenced the other party.
"Xiao Miao, you like watching theater so much, you don't have to follow me, I'll be waiting for you at home." Chang Xi said happily.
Chang Yu shook his head, "I like Lele more."
Chang Xile laughed, "Then you don't have to stick to me all the time. When we are out of sync, you can do what you want, just remember to come back."
"It's boring if Lele is not here."
Chang Xile was helpless, "Wouldn't it be annoying for you to be by my side all the time?"
"Why bother?" Chang Yu rested his head on Chang Xile's shoulder, wrapped his arms around his waist from behind, and put his face against his face, "Is it warm?"
Chang Yu never knew what avoiding suspicion was, even outside, he did whatever he wanted.
Chang Xi smiled, "It's very warm! How can you not be warm with you?"
Chang Yu smiled brightly.
Everyone went to the theater, there was no one here, and now there is no one, so Chang Xile did not refuse him.
"Why do I feel like you are a little taller?"
Only then did Chang Yu let go of his hand, stood up straight and gestured, "I'm taller than you."
Chang Xile saw that this was really the case, and felt a little unhappy in her heart.Obviously, Chang Yu was a head shorter than him a long time ago, but he was surpassed in just a few years.He is almost 19 years old now, but his height is estimated to be about 1.7 meters. According to the current trend, he will not grow much taller at all.
The overall height of Taoyuan Village is good, and the men of the Chang family are basically around 1.8 meters.In the pumpkin mansion, it belongs to the tall ones.The height of people in Pumpkin Mansion is generally relatively low, about 1.7 meters for men and about 1.5 meters for women.Taoyuan Village is an exception, probably because there are more outsiders, and only those who are physically fit can survive, so they are generally taller than people in other places.
Father Chang is also about 1.8 meters long, but Mrs. Sun is very short, only about 1.5 meters.Chang Xile couldn't help but think to himself, wouldn't he just be the height of Grandma Sun?If this is the case, it will be unlucky. His generation has adopted tall ones. Even the fourth sister Chang is about 1.6 meters five. The women here are already relatively tall. Everyone has adopted the feature of being tall, but he It was an accident!
Huaizi and the others also slowly jumped up, judging by their skeletons, they shouldn't be too short.In this way, maybe he is the shortest in the whole family, which is cruel enough.He had been in poor health in his previous life, and he was at least 1.8 meters tall.
Chang Yu saw that he was not very happy, reached out and touched Chang Xile's head, and comforted him: "Lele, I like everything about you."
Chang Xile was immediately amused, and the little depression in his heart dissipated in an instant. This kid's sweet talk skills are really well practiced, and he doesn't know where to learn it.
He slapped Chang Yu's hand off, "Do you really think that if you are taller than me, you can switch our identities? Let me tell you, even if you are a head taller than me, it's useless."
As a result, Chang Yu was really overjoyed by Chang Xile and made Chang Xile so depressed that he wanted to slap himself in the mouth.
Chang Yu didn't refute, just said: "Let's go back, it's windy here, don't freeze you."
Hearing what Chang Yu said, Chang Xile couldn't help but tremble. Chang Yu held Chang Xile in his arms, and the two walked side by side.
Occasionally someone would pass by, and the first reaction when seeing them like this was not surprise, but distressed: "Master Wen, is it freezing? It's very cold, go back quickly, don't get hurt by the wind. Remember to put Boil ginger soup to warm your body, so as not to cause the root cause of the disease."
Everyone was concerned in their words, and no one thought it was wrong for two big men to hug each other like this.Some people even asked Chang Yu to take care of him more, completely treating him like Sister Lin, and fell down in a single wind.
Not long after I got home, someone sent me an ancestral homemade prescription that could warm up my body, for fear that he would fall ill.
Now many people in the village would rather have a short life than Chang Xile to live a long life.Because they know that Chang Xile will live a long and long life, and their life will be more prosperous.
Knowing this, Chang Xile became more calm.
Chang Yu sometimes does some intimate actions outside, but he won't avoid it like before.Every time he avoids the loneliness in Chang Yu's eyes, he looks at it and feels his heart. It's not like he's doing anything indecent, he's too cold, and it's easy for Chang Yu to feel insecure.
Chang Yu's ferocious heart is also sensitive, probably because of his previous experience, he is most afraid of being left behind.Chang Xile couldn't bear to see Chang Yu like this.
"Lele, it's time to drink medicine."
Chang Xile lay drowsy on the rocking chair by the firepit, but was awakened by Chang Yu.As soon as he smelled the familiar smell of medicine, he couldn't help but frowned slightly, but he still drank a large bowl in one go.
He was about to hand the bowl to Chang Yu, when Chang Yu's eyes suddenly became vigilant, looking ready to go.
Chang Xile asked Chang Yu with her eyes, Chang Yu patted the back of his hand, and quickly ran towards the door lightly, and then saw that his body relaxed obviously, which meant that there was no danger.
"what happened?"
"Lele, come and see."
Chang Xile put down the quilt on her body, got off the rocking chair and walked to the door. Seeing the scene at the door, she was stunned.
It didn't take long for him to react, and quickly said: "Hurry up, bring these two children in quickly, no, I'll come, you hurry to find a doctor, Doctor Lu from the neighboring village is also here today, get him here!"
As soon as Chang Yu got the order, he ran out without the slightest hesitation, and disappeared without a trace.On the other hand, Chang Xile hurriedly carried the two skinny children who were dying at the door and whose whole body was completely unrecognizable in slovenliness into the room.The stature of the two children is not small, they are at least four or five years old, but Chang Xile carrying them is like carrying a kitten.
The two children were clothed fairly thickly, but they were tattered, with a lot of cotton falling out of them, and their hair was matted into clumps, all covered in mud.His face was also dark, and he couldn't see what it looked like, only his little face had collapsed, and he was so thin that he was almost out of shape.Each of them had only one pair of shoes on their feet, and the other went somewhere. The foot without the shoe started to bleed, swell and turn purple from the cold. When Chang Xile picked them up, she felt that they were shivering all the time.
Because the two children were frozen, Chang Xile did not dare to take them directly to the fire, but put them in the house, then covered them with her cloak and quilt, and went to the house to find a thick quilt.
The two children wanted to push it away at first. Although they didn't make a sound, it was obvious from the shape of their mouths that they were afraid of getting dirty.But Chang Xile couldn't manage so much, so she just wrapped them up first.The two children were very weak and didn't have much strength to resist. When they were brought into the house, they were both listless, and one was the most serious.Chang Xile wiped it, her hands were very hot, and she had already started to have a high fever.
The doctor was quickly brought over by Chang Yu, who was still dizzy standing on the ground.He was just watching a play and saw a wonderful place, and suddenly the world turned upside down. He didn't understand what was going on, so he was brought here.Originally, he wanted to get angry and curse, but when he saw who the person in front of him was, he immediately suppressed the words on his lips.
"Master Wenwu, who is sick to call me here in such a hurry?"
Chang Xile quickly pointed at the two children, "Doctor, quickly take a look at these two children."
The doctor was still a little dizzy, but when he saw the weak appearance of the two children, he woke up immediately, and hurried forward to make an examination, frowning more and more tightly.
"How are they doing, doctor?"
"It's not very good. The two children are very weak now. It is estimated that they have not eaten for a long time, and they have suffered from the cold. Now both of them have started to have a fever. It is easy for such a young child to survive. I am not good at medicine, I am afraid It still needs to be done in the county."
Chang Xile frowned, "I'll make arrangements right away, but you need to give them first aid first, and make sure they last until then."
Chang's family has a full set of things that a doctor needs to go out of the clinic, and there are many common herbal medicines.Chang Xile boiled a bowl of white rice porridge with white rice mixed with water and poured it down for the two children, which made the two children a little angry, but it still didn't look good.
The other brothers of the Chang family hurried back when they got the news. Seeing the appearance of the two children, they hurriedly took them to the county seat without saying a word, and the doctor went with them, so that they could help if there was anything on the way.Human life is at stake, and no one dares to delay.
Fortunately, walking from the canal, it doesn't take too much effort to get to the county. Counting the distance from here to the pier, it can be reached in less than an hour.
Everyone got the news and came back, asking about the situation of the two children.
Father Chang: "Do you know whose child it is? How did you come here?"
Taoyuan Village is not easy to find. If you don't know the way, you probably don't know where to get in.Generally, those who want to come to Taoyuan Village have to be led in by acquaintances.This is the result of opening Taoyuan Village to the outside world and opening the entrance of the cave.If you deliberately defend, it is easy to be stunned.
Neighboring villages have never heard of anyone who lost a child, and there were only two of them.
Chang Xile shook her head, "I don't think I've seen them before, and these two children are already so thin that they are so dark that they can't be seen at all. I was in a hurry at the time, so I didn't have time to wash their faces."
Chang Xiwang looked hesitant to speak, thought for a while and said, "I think these two children look familiar."
"Do you know who it is?" Everyone couldn't help asking.
"I don't know if it's true. I didn't see clearly just now. Don't blame me if I'm wrong."
Second Sister-in-law Cao is impatient, "Third Uncle, why are you so reckless? If you have something to say, hurry up, there is nothing to worry about if you say something wrong."
"No, it's not for the Chinese New Year... I think these two children are like the widow's two children, a pair of twins named Ping'er and An'an. But didn't you say that no one was left alive in that village? , so maybe I misunderstood, children all look the same, and I often can’t tell the difference between other people’s.”
"What?! Didn't you miss it?" Everyone asked in surprise.
It's not been a month since this happened, and I didn't mention it when I felt bad luck during the Chinese New Year. Usually, as long as everyone gets together, they can't help but talk about it.In fact, although this kind of thing happened by accident, it also made everyone feel very panic.So many people are willing to sign up for training, but they don't want their village to suffer such a day.
Although everyone didn't have a good impression of this village at the time, they all hoped that one or two people would survive, otherwise it would be too miserable.
Now that Chang Xiwang mentioned that it was the pair of twins they liked very much, he was inevitably more excited.
"I'm not sure. The two children are now dirty and thin like that. They just feel alike."
Everyone was even more heartbroken when they heard this.
Mrs. Wang sighed: "No matter who these two children are, it's too pitiful to make them look like this. I hope they're okay."
Everyone couldn't help but sigh when they heard this.
Most of the people present here have sons and daughters. When they see the appearance of other people's children, they feel a little bit uncomfortable.Although they didn't see it, they felt very pitiful after hearing Chang Xile's description.Now that they have money and have the energy to sympathize with others, they always want to do more good deeds to make their happiness longer.
Chang Xisheng and his party, who took their two children to the county, did not return home until three days later. At this time, the two children had been cleaned, their hair was shaved because of lice, and their appearance was clearly visible.Although they were out of shape, they could still be seen. The two were indeed the widow's children.
But he underestimated the importance women attached to this matter, and for some reason, this group of women's soldiers were particularly active.That's all for married women, but even usually shy girls actively signed up, and Li Zheng was too embarrassed to refuse with such enthusiasm.
However, the number of places is limited, and there are always people who are not selected, and the result is that they burst into tears.Li Zheng hurriedly comforted him that there would be another time, and then he calmed down.
If you see more men than women, I'm afraid that under the leadership of Dayingzi, the world will be turned upside down.If a woman makes a fuss, it is much more terrifying than a man, and she can't go up and kick it violently to suppress it. Li Zheng can't, so she can only split men and women in half.
Chang Xile was a little surprised when he heard the description.
Although he has consciously instilled the awareness of equality between men and women over the years, he has never advocated this point of view carelessly, but pays more attention to cultivating the concept of self-reliance, self-improvement and self-respect for women.Let them not belittle themselves and let them know that they have their backs.
Moreover, this kind of thinking is only promoted in Chang's family and workshops. After all, he can't drag everyone to meetings every day, and then crackling and giving speeches.He is only based on the economic basis, and then consciously guides and affirms everyone's labor and value.

So although Chang Xile still participated this time, she was more of a bystander and an insider, offering some suggestions occasionally, and the main body was Chang Yu.Chang Yu's current ability does not need him to worry at all.
The training has not yet started, and the Spring Festival has come first.

Some aunts couldn't hold back, and didn't care if the other party was a shirtless man, she just leaned forward to take a closer look, and sighed: "Why doesn't this even have a scar?"
Everyone roared with laughter, immediately pushing the atmosphere to its climax.
The performances in the past few days have caused everyone to discuss for a whole year.

Chang Xile looked at it for a while and then left. Although the weather was very bright these days, he was still wearing a thick cotton coat and a cloak to wrap himself tightly around him. He was holding a hand warmer in his hand. The configuration is comparable to that of the elderly and frail old people in the village, but it still feels very uncomfortable after a long time.

"It's boring if Lele is not here."
Chang Xile was helpless, "Wouldn't it be annoying for you to be by my side all the time?"
"Why bother?" Chang Yu rested his head on Chang Xile's shoulder, wrapped his arms around his waist from behind, and put his face against his face, "Is it warm?"
Chang Yu never knew what avoiding suspicion was, even outside, he did whatever he wanted.
Chang Xi smiled, "It's very warm! How can you not be warm with you?"
Chang Yu smiled brightly.
Everyone went to the theater, there was no one here, and now there is no one, so Chang Xile did not refuse him.
"Why do I feel like you are a little taller?"
Only then did Chang Yu let go of his hand, stood up straight and gestured, "I'm taller than you."
Chang Xile saw that this was really the case, and felt a little unhappy in her heart.Obviously, Chang Yu was a head shorter than him a long time ago, but he was surpassed in just a few years.He is almost 19 years old now, but his height is estimated to be about 1.7 meters. According to the current trend, he will not grow much taller at all.
The overall height of Taoyuan Village is good, and the men of the Chang family are basically around 1.8 meters.In the pumpkin mansion, it belongs to the tall ones.The height of people in Pumpkin Mansion is generally relatively low, about 1.7 meters for men and about 1.5 meters for women.Taoyuan Village is an exception, probably because there are more outsiders, and only those who are physically fit can survive, so they are generally taller than people in other places.
Father Chang is also about 1.8 meters long, but Mrs. Sun is very short, only about 1.5 meters.Chang Xile couldn't help but think to himself, wouldn't he just be the height of Grandma Sun?If this is the case, it will be unlucky. His generation has adopted tall ones. Even the fourth sister Chang is about 1.6 meters five. The women here are already relatively tall. Everyone has adopted the feature of being tall, but he It was an accident!
Huaizi and the others also slowly jumped up, judging by their skeletons, they shouldn't be too short.In this way, maybe he is the shortest in the whole family, which is cruel enough.He had been in poor health in his previous life, and he was at least 1.8 meters tall.
Chang Yu saw that he was not very happy, reached out and touched Chang Xile's head, and comforted him: "Lele, I like everything about you."
Chang Xile was immediately amused, and the little depression in his heart dissipated in an instant. This kid's sweet talk skills are really well practiced, and he doesn't know where to learn it.
He slapped Chang Yu's hand off, "Do you really think that if you are taller than me, you can switch our identities? Let me tell you, even if you are a head taller than me, it's useless."
As a result, Chang Yu was really overjoyed by Chang Xile and made Chang Xile so depressed that he wanted to slap himself in the mouth.
Chang Yu didn't refute, just said: "Let's go back, it's windy here, don't freeze you."
Hearing what Chang Yu said, Chang Xile couldn't help but tremble. Chang Yu held Chang Xile in his arms, and the two walked side by side.
Occasionally someone would pass by, and the first reaction when seeing them like this was not surprise, but distressed: "Master Wen, is it freezing? It's very cold, go back quickly, don't get hurt by the wind. Remember to put Boil ginger soup to warm your body, so as not to cause the root cause of the disease."
Everyone was concerned in their words, and no one thought it was wrong for two big men to hug each other like this.Some people even asked Chang Yu to take care of him more, completely treating him like Sister Lin, and fell down in a single wind.
Not long after I got home, someone sent me an ancestral homemade prescription that could warm up my body, for fear that he would fall ill.
Now many people in the village would rather have a short life than Chang Xile to live a long life.Because they know that Chang Xile will live a long and long life, and their life will be more prosperous.
Knowing this, Chang Xile became more calm.
Chang Yu sometimes does some intimate actions outside, but he won't avoid it like before.Every time he avoids the loneliness in Chang Yu's eyes, he looks at it and feels his heart. It's not like he's doing anything indecent, he's too cold, and it's easy for Chang Yu to feel insecure.
Chang Yu's ferocious heart is also sensitive, probably because of his previous experience, he is most afraid of being left behind.Chang Xile couldn't bear to see Chang Yu like this.
"Lele, it's time to drink medicine."
Chang Xile lay drowsy on the rocking chair by the firepit, but was awakened by Chang Yu.As soon as he smelled the familiar smell of medicine, he couldn't help but frowned slightly, but he still drank a large bowl in one go.
He was about to hand the bowl to Chang Yu, when Chang Yu's eyes suddenly became vigilant, looking ready to go.
Chang Xile asked Chang Yu with her eyes, Chang Yu patted the back of his hand, and quickly ran towards the door lightly, and then saw that his body relaxed obviously, which meant that there was no danger.
"what happened?"
"Lele, come and see."
Chang Xile put down the quilt on her body, got off the rocking chair and walked to the door. Seeing the scene at the door, she was stunned.
It didn't take long for him to react, and quickly said: "Hurry up, bring these two children in quickly, no, I'll come, you hurry to find a doctor, Doctor Lu from the neighboring village is also here today, get him here!"
As soon as Chang Yu got the order, he ran out without the slightest hesitation, and disappeared without a trace.On the other hand, Chang Xile hurriedly carried the two skinny children who were dying at the door and whose whole body was completely unrecognizable in slovenliness into the room.The stature of the two children is not small, they are at least four or five years old, but Chang Xile carrying them is like carrying a kitten.
The two children were clothed fairly thickly, but they were tattered, with a lot of cotton falling out of them, and their hair was matted into clumps, all covered in mud.His face was also dark, and he couldn't see what it looked like, only his little face had collapsed, and he was so thin that he was almost out of shape.Each of them had only one pair of shoes on their feet, and the other went somewhere. The foot without the shoe started to bleed, swell and turn purple from the cold. When Chang Xile picked them up, she felt that they were shivering all the time.
Because the two children were frozen, Chang Xile did not dare to take them directly to the fire, but put them in the house, then covered them with her cloak and quilt, and went to the house to find a thick quilt.
The two children wanted to push it away at first. Although they didn't make a sound, it was obvious from the shape of their mouths that they were afraid of getting dirty.But Chang Xile couldn't manage so much, so she just wrapped them up first.The two children were very weak and didn't have much strength to resist. When they were brought into the house, they were both listless, and one was the most serious.Chang Xile wiped it, her hands were very hot, and she had already started to have a high fever.
The doctor was quickly brought over by Chang Yu, who was still dizzy standing on the ground.He was just watching a play and saw a wonderful place, and suddenly the world turned upside down. He didn't understand what was going on, so he was brought here.Originally, he wanted to get angry and curse, but when he saw who the person in front of him was, he immediately suppressed the words on his lips.
"Master Wenwu, who is sick to call me here in such a hurry?"
Chang Xile quickly pointed at the two children, "Doctor, quickly take a look at these two children."
The doctor was still a little dizzy, but when he saw the weak appearance of the two children, he woke up immediately, and hurried forward to make an examination, frowning more and more tightly.
"How are they doing, doctor?"
"It's not very good. The two children are very weak now. It is estimated that they have not eaten for a long time, and they have suffered from the cold. Now both of them have started to have a fever. It is easy for such a young child to survive. I am not good at medicine, I am afraid It still needs to be done in the county."
Chang Xile frowned, "I'll make arrangements right away, but you need to give them first aid first, and make sure they last until then."
Chang's family has a full set of things that a doctor needs to go out of the clinic, and there are many common herbal medicines.Chang Xile boiled a bowl of white rice porridge with white rice mixed with water and poured it down for the two children, which made the two children a little angry, but it still didn't look good.
The other brothers of the Chang family hurried back when they got the news. Seeing the appearance of the two children, they hurriedly took them to the county seat without saying a word, and the doctor went with them, so that they could help if there was anything on the way.Human life is at stake, and no one dares to delay.
Fortunately, walking from the canal, it doesn't take too much effort to get to the county. Counting the distance from here to the pier, it can be reached in less than an hour.
Everyone got the news and came back, asking about the situation of the two children.
Father Chang: "Do you know whose child it is? How did you come here?"
Taoyuan Village is not easy to find. If you don't know the way, you probably don't know where to get in.Generally, those who want to come to Taoyuan Village have to be led in by acquaintances.This is the result of opening Taoyuan Village to the outside world and opening the entrance of the cave.If you deliberately defend, it is easy to be stunned.
Neighboring villages have never heard of anyone who lost a child, and there were only two of them.
Chang Xile shook her head, "I don't think I've seen them before, and these two children are already so thin that they are so dark that they can't be seen at all. I was in a hurry at the time, so I didn't have time to wash their faces."
Chang Xiwang looked hesitant to speak, thought for a while and said, "I think these two children look familiar."
"Do you know who it is?" Everyone couldn't help asking.
"I don't know if it's true. I didn't see clearly just now. Don't blame me if I'm wrong."
Second Sister-in-law Cao is impatient, "Third Uncle, why are you so reckless? If you have something to say, hurry up, there is nothing to worry about if you say something wrong."
"No, it's not for the Chinese New Year... I think these two children are like the widow's two children, a pair of twins named Ping'er and An'an. But didn't you say that no one was left alive in that village? , so maybe I misunderstood, children all look the same, and I often can’t tell the difference between other people’s.”
"What?! Didn't you miss it?" Everyone asked in surprise.
It's not been a month since this happened, and I didn't mention it when I felt bad luck during the Chinese New Year. Usually, as long as everyone gets together, they can't help but talk about it.In fact, although this kind of thing happened by accident, it also made everyone feel very panic.So many people are willing to sign up for training, but they don't want their village to suffer such a day.
Although everyone didn't have a good impression of this village at the time, they all hoped that one or two people would survive, otherwise it would be too miserable.
Now that Chang Xiwang mentioned that it was the pair of twins they liked very much, he was inevitably more excited.
"I'm not sure. The two children are now dirty and thin like that. They just feel alike."
Everyone was even more heartbroken when they heard this.
Mrs. Wang sighed: "No matter who these two children are, it's too pitiful to make them look like this. I hope they're okay."
Everyone couldn't help but sigh when they heard this.
Most of the people present here have sons and daughters. When they see the appearance of other people's children, they feel a little bit uncomfortable.Although they didn't see it, they felt very pitiful after hearing Chang Xile's description.Now that they have money and have the energy to sympathize with others, they always want to do more good deeds to make their happiness longer.
Chang Xisheng and his party, who took their two children to the county, did not return home until three days later. At this time, the two children had been cleaned, their hair was shaved because of lice, and their appearance was clearly visible.Although they were out of shape, they could still be seen. The two were indeed the widow's children.
