tall and rhubarb

Two days later, when Gao Chang saw the father and son again, he was not particularly surprised. The tall and thin man took his equally thin son by the hand and arrived at the entrance of Gao Chang's village not long after the sun went down.At this time, the men in the village were working on the ground. People from the two yards of Shangkan and Aoli were there. Just around the entrance of the village, everyone saw this man who did not know where he came from greet Gao Chang.

"Thank you for your reminder that day. We visited many villages in the past two days, and finally decided to visit your village." The man spoke very politely.

"Gao Chang, do you know this person?" Zheng Chunhua's private land is next to Gao Chang. Right now he is digging sweet potatoes. When he sees a stranger entering the village, he throws down his hoe and comes to join in the fun.

"I saw it a few days ago." Gao Chang picked a few tomatoes from the branches. These tomatoes were almost old and dead, and the fruits they grew were not as big as when the branches and leaves were strong, but they were all bright red. It looks very tasty.I just washed it in the puddle by the field, and handed it to the man and his child. They must have walked a lot in the past two days, their lips were chapped, and their complexion was not very good.

"Thank you." The man took the tomato with a smile. His son just looked up at Gao Chang, and then looked down at Rhubarb who was dozing on the rock. Rhubarb felt his gaze and grinned at him. Children are not afraid.

"Where did you come from?" Zheng Chunhua asked.Even the sun is out of order these days, and everyone is hiding at home. It's really strange that this father and son are still wandering outside.

"Hi, my name is Wei Changrui, I'm a doctor, I'm from G city in the south."

"Are you a doctor? What kind of problems can you treat?" Zheng Chunhua immediately became interested. Doctors are very valuable these days.

"I'm a surgeon, but our family's grandparents are Chinese medicine practitioners, so I know a little bit."

"Hey, isn't that a combination of Chinese and Western!" A few people gathered around, and after hearing Wei Changrui's words, they all felt strange.

"Hehe, because there are not many Western medicines now, most of the time, Chinese herbal medicines should be used instead of Chinese herbal medicines." This Wei Changrui spoke neither humble nor overbearing, not too humble, and did not mean to be complacent. Everyone admired him , was also attracted by his calmness and generosity.

"So, you still have medicine?" Someone immediately grasped the end point in Wei Changrui's words. There is no doctor in the village. Although Old Ninth Uncle is a bone grafter and knows a lot, he is not like a surgeon after all. The doctor is so professional, and there are not many medicines now, this person is a doctor and carries medicines, isn't he just a treasure?

"Village chief! Village chief! Come here quickly!" Zheng Guobang just came out today, and Zheng Chunhua hurriedly called him over. The so-called predilection is the best, and the doctor who came in from outside should not be snatched by those in Shangkan. go.

"I told you not to call me the village chief. It's been so long, what kind of village chief is there?" Zheng Guobang also put down his hoe and walked over.

"Village chief, this is a surgeon. He still has medicine on him. Let's let him live in our yard." Zheng Chunhua suggested.

"Why do you still have medicine?" Zheng Guobang was obviously not as excited as Zheng Chunhua, he asked casually, and then carefully looked at the father and son in front of him.

"My parents used to run a pharmacy. When the chaos started, we hid a lot in secret places. A while ago...something happened again, so I drove here with my son." Wei Wei Chang Rui stretched out his hand to caress the top of his son's head, revealing his father's love.

"Something happened again?" Zheng Guobang asked, although he knew it was definitely not a good thing.

"Since the sun turned blue two years ago, the outside has gradually become chaotic, and my parents have passed away one after another. A group of people knew that I was good at medicine, so they asked me to be their doctor, but a while ago... my wife was humiliated and died. , So, I took my son and left secretly." Wei Changrui probably also knew the current situation, people don't like to let unfamiliar people enter their territory, so Zheng Guobang asked, and he answered in detail.

"Hmm..." The village head pondered for a while, and then said to him: "We can't decide this matter, so how about it, you go back to the yard with us later, and listen to what everyone has to say."

"Okay." Wei Changrui nodded in agreement, then picked another clean stone for his son to sit on, and waited silently by the side of the road.

"Well, in addition to their yard, this village also has our yard. There is a stone step next to the back door of their yard. You can see it after walking up a few steps." He just told the doctor from outside about the location of his yard. If the people in the alcove refused to take him in, they might still find a way.

"I see." Wei Changrui nodded with a smile, indicating that he understood, and the man went back to work in the field.

The man in the village saw that the child was thin and thin, so he gave him two sweet potatoes that had just been dug out from his own field. Wei Changrui took out a knife from his breast pocket and peeled the skin carefully for him, letting his son hold it in his hand. Nibbling slowly, the kid was obviously very interested in Rhubarb, but Rhubarb didn't like to talk to him very much, and was annoyed by being stared at, so he turned around and pointed his butt at him.

After the work was over, the father and son went back with the men in Gao Chang's yard. When they climbed the ladder and crossed the pig trench, Gao Chang was behind them. The child in front of him was only seven or eight years old, and his movements were so sensitive when he climbed the bamboo ladder. , doesn't look like a child in the city at all, I feel a little strange.

After entering the courtyard, Wei Changrui told the people in the courtyard what he had just said at the entrance of the village.Everyone was quite open-minded, and didn't care what gangs he had offended in City G. After all, now the living have to wait until night to go out for activities, and there is darkness everywhere, so it is easy to hide two people.Besides, there was no electricity or internet, and that gang was not a state machine. Everyone didn't believe that they could chase them from city G, find their village from this mountain, and find out Wei Changrui and his son.

What everyone is most interested in is the thrilling journey of the father and son on this road. I heard Wei Changrui said that his ancestors all studied Chinese medicine, and he attached great importance to health preservation. He also practiced a few times, and the men in the village could not sit still. Yes, some jumped out and said they wanted to make gestures with others, but they were immediately thrown to the ground. While the men and women in the yard laughed loudly, they all felt that this thin and tall doctor was indeed a fool. Everyone didn't have any opinion on the matter of living in their yard, but they just didn't know which house should be suitable for him to live in for a while.The first thing everyone thought of was Zheng Guolin's family. The two families who rented in their house have moved out, and their house is very empty at the moment.

"Is there any place to live in Gao Chang's house?" This Wei Changrui didn't know why, but he just fell in love with Gao Chang's house.As soon as he said this, the people in the yard stopped talking. No one in the village dared to think about Gao Chang's family. It's understandable that Wei Changrui just came here and didn't know the situation.

"Don't look at me, I don't like to live with other people." The father and son have not yet figured out the details of the two, and they don't want them to live in their own house.

"How about, Gao Chang, can we lift the house for you?" Carpenter Cui spoke at this time. Although Gao Chang has been naughty since he was a child, most of the time, he still respects the elderly, so he dared to speak .Now in their Sanheyuan, only Gao Chang’s house has one floor, and other houses have two floors. Since this doctor wants to live in Gao Chang’s house, everyone will work together to help him lift the second floor up to the father and son. It is quiet and comfortable to live in.

"If you want to lift it, just lift it, don't hit me in the house." The people in the yard tried their best to keep the doctor, but Gao Chang couldn't stand in their way.

It was still early, and there were many men in Gao Chang's yard, so they started working immediately. First, they collected the roof tiles. In the past, they cut a lot of bamboo and put them in the yard. .Gao Chang's house is wide, and the two father and son don't need such a big space, so they built a spacious room above the living room of Gao Chang's house.The stairs go up from the tall door, and now the yard is closed, and there are usually no big objects coming in and out of the house, so it's not a big deal to block it a little bit.

Climbing up from the bamboo ladder, there is a small platform in front of it. The boxy one is only about one square meter. After all, there needs to be a place to stand before you can open the door and enter the house.Gao Chang also helped when the house was being repaired. He looked at it when it was finished and felt very comfortable. Wei Chengying, Wei Changrui's son, likes to sit on the small platform with his legs swinging and watch the situation in the yard. Everyone said it was dangerous and wanted to help with a railing, but Wei Changrui said it was okay and let him do it.

The father and son upstairs were very quiet, and their rooms were not facing each other, so Gao Chang seldom heard any movement.At noon that day, Gao Chang had just finished his meditation when he heard a strange sound on the roof. At first he thought it was wild animals crossing the pig trench and entering the courtyard, but when he listened carefully, the sound was not quite right.

"Is that the kid upstairs?" Gao Chang asked Da Huang.

"Well, I'm basking in the sun with that cat on the roof." Rhubarb was also curled up beside Gao Chang at the moment, and when Gao Chang asked it, he lazily opened his eyes.Gao Chang looked into the bamboo basket and saw that Miaozai was not there. Usually this time is when it sleeps, but today it is on the roof. Also, it must be more comfortable to sleep on the roof.

Basking in the sun!What a luxury.The room was dark, and there was still a faint musty smell in the air, all because the sun hadn't entered for a long time.Gao Chang turned over and lay down. Thinking about it, the sun must be shining on the roof now, and it is a good time for autumn, and the autumn sun is always the most brilliant and refreshing. The slightly hot sun is matched with the cool and dry autumn wind. What kind of enjoyment is it...

"Let's go out later to enjoy the sunshine and the moon." Gao Chang hummed.

"Catch the pigs and come back to roast them, and they will starve to death." Rhubarb also followed suit.
