Back to 90s

Zhu Yunxuan went home, and Li Rui and his party naturally also returned home.

The old man they brought out from the mountains this time was originally named Zhou Juan. She was a miserable woman who lost her husband in her early years and her son in her middle age, and lived in such a poor mountain valley. For her, everything outside was new. Yes, she is very rare about the van they are sitting in right now.

Li Rui's language learning ability is not boastful, and after all, it is a rural area in Zhejiang, and the local dialect is somewhat similar. Now after 20 days, he can already speak to the other party.

Zhou Juan originally didn't want to leave the place where her ancestors lived for generations, but her husband's brother has long been interested in her family's land. Originally, when her son was still alive, he took her in the name of helping her farm the land. Half of the land, but when the news of her son's death came later, and several nephews got married again, more and more of her land was occupied.

Zhou Juan is good at growing shiitake mushrooms, and she can barely make ends meet. During this period, Jiang Yong also visited the mountain village several times, and brought her some food and things, and her life became much better.But her life is better, but others will be jealous.

Her little nephew has also reached the age of marriage, but he has no house to marry and has no money. After knowing that Jiang Yong wanted to pick her up and leave her but refused to leave, her sister-in-law brought her grandchildren to her house to cry every day, thinking about her house. And the rest of the land and the cooked shiitake mushrooms.

Zhou Juan still remembers that when she first got married more than 30 years ago, she had a good relationship with this sister-in-law. When her husband just passed away, she also relied on the help of the other family, but why has it become like this now?And her sister-in-law got worse later on, from crying to yelling, calling her Khofko, she still couldn't live in this place after all.

At this moment, with a large bag of dried shiitake mushrooms, a few changes of clothes, and seven or eight pairs of shoes, Zhou Juan followed Jiang Yong and left the place where she had lived for most of her life.

Wende Town is not too big, but in Zhou Juan's eyes, there are places with street lights at night, but it is almost like a big city. Every time they carry dried shiitake mushrooms to the outside of the mountain to sell, the county town they see is also It's that big.

Zhu Yunxuan got out of the car, Zhou Juan watched him run away, and then she focused on Li Rui: "Baby, isn't he your brother?"

"No, he's my classmate." Li Rui looked at the smiling old man opposite and said.This old man is very simple, maybe because of the hard life, she is only 50 years old, but she looks 70 to [-] years old, she is very thin, she wears short sleeves made by herself, and her hair is tied with half of the white hair. Two braids hang down by the ears.

"It turns out that you are classmates. I thought you were brothers. We don't even have such close friends." Zhou Juan still likes these two children very much. This time she came out with Li Yong, she said she would Help take care of Sun Ling and Li Yong's life, as long as Li Yong can handle her affairs in the future.

"We're on good terms." Li Rui nodded his head in agreement. In fact, the past 20 days have been pretty good except for the fact that he has nothing to eat and makes people feel uncomfortable.

There is a small stream in the mountain, and because there is no running water, he and Zhu Yunxuan took a bath in the underground water naked... Well, although the eyes of the child's body are not enough, the two of them are indeed day and night these days relatively.

Speaking of the creek, they have caught a lot of small fish from the creek these days. The small fish is only the size of a child's finger and has many bones. People there don't eat it, but after seeing it, Zhu Yunxuan It is tempting for Li Rui to eat deep fried fish, but the lard that Chen Xiaoming finally brought back was stolen, and they didn't have oil for deep fried fish at all... In the end, they had to wash it and dissect it. It was then dried and brought back.

"How is it? Do you feel any feelings after taking this trip?" Sun Ling glanced at Li Rui and asked.

"Do you want me to say the big picture or my own true thoughts?" Li Rui glanced at Sun Ling and asked.

"Of course I want to talk about your real thoughts. Of course, what I teach is economics."

"The labor force is cheap in places with a low standard of living, but the investment cannot be determined just because the labor force is cheap. Environmental factors must also be taken into consideration. For example, in the previous place, the traffic there was really inconvenient, and even if there were profitable projects, it would not make much money... ..." Li Rui spoke slowly, analyzed the traffic environment there, and then talked about the atmosphere there: "Most people in that mountain village are content with the status quo. Walking around leisurely. I chatted with them and learned some of their lifestyles. In their view, as long as they can eat enough, they are fine. It is not appropriate for people with such thoughts to be employees. I think They are likely to choose to play for a month after working for a month and then go to work... In addition, there are actually many business opportunities that can be found in the mountains. For example, there are many fish in the river there, but Only children can catch it, and the nearby mountain is also a treasure house, but no one wants to get anything from it..." Li Rui talked a lot, and under Sun Ling's smiling eyes, he talked for nearly 5 minutes until he had nothing to say .

It is obviously such a poor place. It is said that everyone is receiving state subsidies, but people are not too enterprising. He saw some people under the age of 50, and their sons handed over all their buddies as soon as their sons got married. , I seem to be just messing around and waiting to die...

In fact, more shiitake mushrooms can be planted here. If the roads can be cleared and someone organizes them, their lives should be completely improved, but if that time really comes, these people will also cheat and play tricks, right?

"That's pretty good." Sun Ling nodded. What Li Rui said was still lacking, but it's not bad for a child.Then, he turned his eyes and laughed: "Finally home, Xiaohui should have prepared a big meal, right?" Zhu Yunxuan looked for a place to notify his parents before, and of course they also notified Xiaohui.

Xiaohui did prepare a lot of food. She came to this small town from Shanghai. Her salary is not the highest, but her job is the most leisurely. Naturally, she is full of love for this job. After receiving a call from Li Rui, She started to toss the food, and now, the table is full of steamed, fried, boiled and fried food.

Pork with pickled vegetables and steamed pork with flour are two items that Sun Ling ordered by name. Killing a hen to make up for his son is Li Yue's request. In addition to these three items, there are also fried eggplant boxes, fried shredded pork with green peppers, and steamed meat. Hairtail fish, hot and sour potato shreds and fish head tofu soup.

Both the braised pork with plum vegetables and the steamed pork with flour are steamed, but one is steamed with dried plums and the other is steamed with fried rice noodles sent by Jiang Yuexiu.Ever since she had a child, Jiang Yuexiu has been thinking about the things Zhu Yunxuan loved to eat when she was a child, because Zhu Yunxuan has been fond of fried rice noodles since five or six years ago, so she simply fried the rice herself and let Zhu Chengcai take it to grind it I got a bag of rice noodles for my child to prepare, and then thought that it would take half a year for the child to eat rice noodles, so I had to take it out and eat it by myself, so she put some sugar and soaked a bowl of fragrant fried rice noodles to eat from time to time. I gave Xiaohui a lot.

After entering the room, Li Rui was picked up by Li Yue who was waiting for him: "Son, you have lost weight and darkened this time, why did you run there?"

"Father, I'm healthy now." Li Rui retorted, and I have to say that he has really strengthened a lot—Jiang Yong made him run on mountain roads these days!

"Forget it, I can't help your grandfather's decision," Li Yue patted his son's head, "You are also very healthy, children really shouldn't be pushed so hard." Sun Ling's identity Li Yue He and Zheng Xiaoqing knew about it, otherwise they would not have agreed to Li Rui's going to the mountains.

After talking to Li Rui for a few words, Li Yue put down his son, and immediately took a bowl to serve the rice. Thinking about the identities of Sun Ling and Jiang Yong, he came to greet them again, but he was at a loss as to Zhou Juan. A: "This is?"

Zhou Juan was quite cautious, she didn't dare to move when she stood at the door, the floor of this room was covered with beautiful tiles, she couldn't even find a place to put her foot down, and there was also a table of dishes that she could smell from a long distance. When the village chief's son married his wife, he killed a pig and bought chickens from outside. There was no such a sumptuous meal!

"Mom, come and eat, eat more." Jiang Yong didn't say anything when he was about to drive on the road, but he still greeted him at this moment.His life was saved by Zhou Juan's son, no matter what he will take good care of Zhou Juan!

"Xiaoyong, here..." Zhou Juan moved slowly, but when she saw Jiang Yong, she obviously relaxed a lot.

The only son is dead, and her nephew is unreliable, so she will have to rely on Jiang Yong in the future.

"This is Li Rui's house. We'll go back to our own house after dinner. Mom, you can eat first." Jiang Yong roughly explained Zhou Juan's identity to Li Yue, and then asked Zhou Juan to sit down.

"Yeah, let's all eat." Li Yue has been paying attention to his son, seeing Li Rui looking at the dishes on the table from time to time, of course he hopes that the meal can be served immediately so that his son can eat enough.

When eating, Jiang Yong helped to pick up the food, and Zhou Juan herself was very hungry, so naturally she ate a lot.

It's really nothing to eat a few more pieces of meat, let's just talk about Sun Ling, he doesn't like meat, and he is still healthy, but Zhou Juan is different.

Where they live now, the house has two bedrooms and one living room. At night, Jiang Yong went to Sun Ling's room to make a bed on the floor, and gave Zhou Juan the bedroom he used to live in. As a result, Zhou Juan had diarrhea as soon as she lay down.

It is rare for a person who is used to a light diet to eat greasy food for a long time. If he suddenly eats such a big meal of meat, his stomach will definitely not be able to bear it. It is only natural for Zhou Juan to have diarrhea.

In the end, Zhou Juan's tossing and tossing continued until the morning, so that neither Sun Ling nor Jiang Yong could sleep well.But after all they lived separately, Li Rui had a good night's sleep and was not affected in any way.

Li Rui slept well, and Zhu Yunxuan didn't sleep badly either. Back home, with the electric fan on the lowest setting, Zhu Yunxuan wished he could sleep until noon.

But the biological clock would not let him go, Zhu Yunxuan woke up at five o'clock in the morning.

"Ruirui, are you awake?" Zhu Chengcai has already got up and is washing his face right now.

"Dad, is Auntie's child born yet?" Zhu Yunxuan asked.

He forgot exactly what time Zhu Dongyue was born in his previous life, but it seemed to be during summer vacation... Also, Jiang Yuexiu picked up the ring at the same time as in her previous life, and Feng Xian naturally did the same...

The only difference is that in his previous life, Zhu Chenggong hadn't started selling meat yet, because the cost of having a child was too high, and he would come to borrow money from Zhu Ada and Zhu Chengcai.

"I don't know either. Your mother will go and see later, so you can go and see with her when the time comes." Zhu Chengcai said, he didn't care about Feng Xian's childbirth.

"Dad, I still have to go to Grandpa Sun's place. I'll just go later by myself," Li Rui said, and suddenly remembered something, "Dad, where is Qiuyue?"

"By the way, no one can take care of Qiuyue today, or you can take her to Teacher Sun's place together." Zhu Chengcai remembered what his elder brother told him, and said quickly.

"Okay." Zhu Yunxuan nodded in agreement, Zhu Qiuyue is a quiet person, and he didn't mind taking her with him at all.

Zhu Chengcai's bicycle is very big, with a horizontal bar in the front and a spacious place to sit in the back. Because he often takes Zhu Yunxuan with him, Jiang Yuexiu specially sewed a cushion and put it on the back. Xuan sat where he was used to, but Zhu Qiuyue sat there.Zhu Yunxuan, on the other hand, sat sideways on the crossbar in front, carefully holding the front of the bicycle.

According to Zhu Chengcai, he used to insist on sitting in the front, and only liked to sit in the back a year ago... This is also a very normal thing, after all, a year ago, his inner soul changed.

When they arrived at Sun Ling's place, Li Rui was already there, and Jiang Yong was making porridge, but that grandma Zhou who Zhu Yunxuan remembered was extremely diligent was not there: "Where is Grandma Zhou?"

"She has diarrhea." Li Rui didn't know about it until the morning. Just now, Zhou Juan went to the toilet clutching her stomach.

"What's the matter?" Zhu Yunxuan was a little curious. Zhou Juan's health is very good. Some time ago, she came to school every day to cook for them. When she left the mountain, she was walking like flying.

"It should be because I ate too much meat, and I have been dragging it all night." Li Rui said softly.Everyone was very happy to see that Zhou Juan had a good appetite yesterday, but no one thought of this at all.

It’s okay for young people to have diarrhea, but it’s going to cause accidents for older people who keep having diarrhea.Thinking of the time when he ate seafood and drank fruit juice and had diarrhea and nearly dehydrated for two days, Zhu Yunxuan frowned: "Should I go to the hospital? It would be bad if I became dehydrated."

"Grandma Zhou refused to go, saying that she had never been to a hospital in her life." Now it is not like 20 years later when there are pharmacies everywhere to buy medicine, and they dare not give her medicine casually.

Zhu Yunxuan knows that many elderly people in rural areas avoid medical treatment, and are used to holding on when they are sick. Not long ago, there was a postmenopausal woman next door to his house who had irregular menstruation for three months and did not take it seriously. She went to the hospital because of severe anemia and passed out. Zhou Juan probably did the same: "Why don't we use a folk remedy? I know bayberry soaked in soju can cure diarrhea, so I soaked some at home."

"It really works? Then I'll go get some with you." Jiang Yong came over suddenly, and now he regretted and blamed himself, feeling very uncomfortable.

"It should work." As soon as Zhu Yunxuan finished speaking, he saw that Jiang Yong had already opened the door and went out. He could only greet Li Rui and ask him to help take care of Zhu Qiuyue, and hurried back home.

Zhu Qiuyue was quite familiar with Li Rui, and when she saw Li Rui, she immediately talked about her mother: "My mother has given birth, do you want to go see my brother with me?"

Feng Xian gave birth?Li Rui remembered that Feng Xian's due date was more than 20 days earlier than Jiang Yuexiu, so Jiang Yuexiu was due to give birth a month later: "Okay, let's go see together later, grandpa grandpa gave us a holiday today. "

It took a lot of energy to go out for a long trip, and last night Zhou Juan had diarrhea and Sun Ling didn't sleep well, so today Sun Ling's leg that can't walk started to hurt. Before Zhu Yunxuan came, he had already told Li Rui doesn't have class today.

Zhou Juan ate Yang Min who had been soaked in shochu, and took another sip of shochu with a frown. Her stomach hurt for a while, but she didn't feel like pulling.After all this tossing, it was after eight o'clock in the morning.

The obstetrics and gynecology department is staffed 24 hours a day, but there will be more people after eight o'clock, because the hospital is not far away, Zhu Yunxuan and Li Rui took Zhu Qiuyue and walked there directly.

After asking about the location of the obstetrics and gynecology department, Zhu Yunxuan searched from ward to ward, and soon saw Feng Xian lying alone on the hospital bed.

There were three people living in a ward, and Feng Xian was lying on the outermost hospital bed, beside her, a wrapped child was lying there.

"Mom!" Zhu Qiuyue ran over immediately and looked at the child excitedly: "My brother is so young!"

"Qiuyue, is it my younger sister, not my younger brother?" Feng Xian reached out to stop Zhu Qiuyue's hand from reaching out to the baby, "My younger sister's face is very tender, you have to be careful."

"It's my sister." Zhu Qiuyue didn't understand too much, she kept staring at the child, when Zhu Yunxuan and Li Rui also walked in.

It was a very, very small child, the entire head was no bigger than an adult's palm, she was sleeping with her eyes closed, such a small child, no one dared to touch it.

"Auntie, where's grandma? Where's uncle?" Zhu Yunxuan stood here for a while, and couldn't help asking, at least one of the other two pregnant women in the ward was around, but there was no one here for Feng Xian.

"Your uncle is going to deliver meat to the steamed stuffed bun shop, and you have to prepare some things that old customers want. You have to leave early. Your grandma...she said her back hurts." When Feng Xian mentioned his mother-in-law, his face turned pale. Everything has changed.

She was in so much pain that she gave birth to the child, but she was thrown here alone... If she hadn't always been strong, she would have cried long ago!

Back pain?Wang Feng'er had dinner with them well last night, but now her back hurts?

"That mother-in-law of yours has a backache? I haven't seen such a mother-in-law before. Yesterday you gave birth inside and she slept on her own. After the birth, she heard that it was a woman, so she didn't even bother to look at her. Now the doctor is at work. You just said you need to see a doctor for your back pain..." A middle-aged woman in the next bed chattered endlessly, and then gave Feng Xian a bun: "I just watched it, you didn't even eat breakfast, did you? We bought too much, You first eat one to fill your stomach, and then eat more to make your milk go faster."

Sure enough, it was something Wang Fenger would do.Zhu Yunxuan sighed and went to see the child beside Feng Xian. If nothing else happened, this was Zhu Dongyue.

In her previous life, although Zhu Dongyue was born in [-], she really didn't have a good life. Feng Xian's factory only gave her three months of maternity leave, so Zhu Dongyue went to work after three months, and the child was handed over to Zhu Chenggong. Zhu Chenggong doesn't know how to take care of children, so he often sees Zhu Dongyue crying hoarsely... But the situation should change now, right?Feng Xian seemed to have said before that he would quit his job after giving birth, and asked Jiang Yuexiu if they wanted female workers in their factory.

No one knows what Zhu Yunxuan was thinking, but Feng Xian probably was really hungry, so he ate the big meat bun in two or three mouthfuls, and asked Zhu Qiuyue to make a cup of brown sugar water for her to drink. A bag of brown sugar is edible.

After such a short time, the child beside her woke up and burst into tears.This child was very small, Feng Xian said it was only five catties, but now that she was crying, the mouth was really big, it seemed that there was only one mouth left on the whole face.

"At first I thought she couldn't even eat milk at such a young age, but I didn't expect her to eat very well." Feng Xian didn't care about the three children, so he lifted his clothes and stuffed the breast into the child's mouth. There is no milk yet, but the baby stops crying after sucking on the nipple.She had just given birth, so she couldn't hold the baby back and forth to coax her, so she could only make the baby stop crying in this way.

Feng Xian didn't take the three children seriously, but Zhu Yunxuan and Li Rui turned their eyes away at the same time.Zhu Yunxuan saw others making milk powder, and thought that Feng Xian had nothing but a pack of brown sugar here, so he asked, "Auntie, do you want me to buy you a pack of milk powder?"

"No, she has something in her stomach now, and she'll have milk in a day. It's a waste to buy milk powder." Feng Xian said, she had already given birth to a child, and she was used to all this.

The price of milk powder is not cheap. Zhu Qiuyue used to eat her milk for eleven months and then weaned and ate rice noodles and porridge directly. She didn't plan to buy any more milk powder this time.

"Oh." Zhu Yunxuan nodded, and saw that the child was eating and eating, except for the occasional sucking of the mouth, the whole body was not moving, and suddenly felt very cute.

If there is such a child... Well, he is already in his third year of mental age, and he will inevitably want to be a father... Maybe he can take good care of the child in Jiang Yuexiu's belly?Don't they all say that the elder brother is the father?

At this time, Wang Feng'er came over.She covered her waist, and sat on the bed as soon as she came in: "My back hurts badly. I went to the doctor just now. The doctor said that I will sleep on a hard bed for a month, and I can't take care of you."

Sleeping on a hard bed for a month?Is there a way to treat low back pain like this?Zhu Yunxuan saw that Wang Fenger was holding a medical record book and a box of calcium tablets in his hand, and really didn't know what to say.

She went to see her for her back pain, and it is estimated that no cause could be found in the end, so the doctor told her not to sleep on a soft bed or a hard bed at night, right?But judging by her appearance, she planned to lie down for a month after going back.

"That guy Zhu Ada bought a palm-tied mattress and was so desperate for it, but it made my back hurt from sleeping..." Wang Fenger was still chattering over there.

"Just go home if your back hurts!" Feng Xian was suffocating, and he didn't plan to say it in spite of the public, so he could only speak forcefully.Didn't Wang Fenger insist on buying the palm bed?She was still showing off everywhere, but now it's all Zhu Ada's fault!

"If you say so, I'll go back. By the way, I'll let the old man visit your natal house later, so that your mother can take care of you." Wang Feng'er walked away while talking. They all kept a straight face, even when they faced Zhu Yunxuan, their expressions didn't get any better.

Feng Xian's complexion became even worse, even Zhu Qiuyue didn't say a word because she felt the solemn atmosphere here, and only the child lying next to Feng Xian still sucked something that made her feel safe.

Few people use diapers at the moment, and the hospital will distribute a pack for the parturient, and it will cost a lot of money to buy it again. As soon as Wang Fenger left, the baby pulled meconium, and it was dark. group.

Feng Xian had no choice but to sit up and clean the child. Seeing this, Zhu Yunxuan quickly brought her hot water and bought a new towel so that she could wash the child's butt.After taking care of the child, Feng Xian lay down on her side and let the child lie beside her to nurse.

Zhu Yunxuan didn't know what he could do, and felt that he couldn't just leave like this. He could only stand there like a log, and Li Rui couldn't do much better.Fortunately, it didn't take long for Zhu Chenggong to come over, bringing a lot of things, and at the same time, he also brought the soy milk that was packed in the quilt in the buns he bought.

"Where's Mom?" He was quite surprised that he didn't see Wang Feng'er.

"Grandma's back hurts, she's going home," Zhu Yunxuan said, "Uncle, we're leaving too."

Zhu Chenggong was stunned for a moment, unable to express something about his mother's behavior: "Are you leaving now? Eat some steamed stuffed buns."

"No need uncle, we are all full, Qiuyue, will you come with us?"

"I want to stay here to see my sister." Although Zhu Qiuyue is very close to Zhu Yunxuan, she is not as good as her parents.

Finally, Zhu Yunxuan and Li Rui left the hospital with the steamed stuffed buns that Zhu Chenggong stuffed for Wang Fenger. Because it was summer, the sycamore trees planted on both sides of the road in Wende Town were overgrown, covering the entire road. People walking on the road can not be exposed to the sun at all.

Zhu Yunxuan kicked the stones at his feet, thinking of Jiang Yuexiu who was going to give birth soon, he really didn't know what to say, so he could only hold Li Rui's hand tightly.

After he was reborn, he changed a lot, but he couldn't make everything perfect...Feng Xian still gave birth to a girl, so can the final break with his parents be avoided?
