Hiding in the mountains to watch the end of the world

"Brother Zhao, let's come in for dinner. It's a coincidence that you came here. Our mother-in-law just cooked the meal not long ago. This omelette is delicious."

The head of Liujiatun Village brought him in with a smile on his face.

When the three of them came to the main room, there was no one on the dining table, and there were fewer dishes on the table. They probably ate in the kitchen.

"Brother Zhao, why are you here? Sit down and eat, eat." The head of Liujiatun village was very strange, he asked while greeting, and sat down first.

"Don't eat, I'm here to discuss business with you, brother." Village Chief Zhao sat down and waved his hands.

Village head Liu looked at Zai, "Oh, brother Zhao, this is... from which family in your village? It's not like you."

"Oh, the eldest of Daqiang's family in our village, it happens that his family has a carriage, so let him drive me here, and hurry up."

"Oh, I know, I know." Village head Liu suddenly realized, "I've heard it for a long time, but seeing someone this time is really scary for young people, scary for young people."

"Village Chief Liu has won the award." Zhao Mian nodded with a smile, with a slight smile on his face, and he still felt a little distant.

Village head Liu didn't want to talk to him, but he saw that this young man looked quite reliable, so he asked him for a face, it's okay if he doesn't get close to him.

"Brother Zhao, why are you here today?" Village Chief Liu put down his bowl and stopped eating.

"It's like this. There are a few people in our village who want to build a house, but the weather is too hot recently, so I want to finish it early. I want to come to your village and borrow a bullock cart. Look at how many houses there are in your village. Is the bullock cart empty?"

Village head Liu frowned, and it took a long time before he said, "Brother Zhao, you are going to build a wall, what kind of house, don't lie, we have a good relationship, so you just lie to me like this?"

Village Chief Zhao didn't expect him to know, Zhao Mian knew it as soon as he heard it, it seemed that someone had been there.

Village head Zhao didn't panic either, picked up the pipe at his waist, lit it, took a puff, and sighed, "Oh, our village said before that we were going to build a wall, and you know about it, and everyone refused to pay for it at that time. , Now where is willing to pay for grain to buy bricks, where can it be built. Brother Liu, how can I lie to you. "

Village Chief Liu shook his head and sighed, looking at Village Chief Zhao felt very chilling, "Oh, it's okay if you don't want to tell me the truth, brother Zhao, but oh, early this morning, people from Shikou Village came to borrow cattle from our village I got in the car and said to build a fence. I heard that Caojia Village is already discussing it. You know that Shikou Village and Caojia Village are both big villages, and they usually have a good relationship. I guess It is to guard against those refugees, otherwise why would they be so anxious to build a fence. I thought, these two big villages have to build fences, then if our village doesn’t build them by then, it will become a target So I didn't agree, and I wanted to talk to you tomorrow, but I didn't expect, Brother Zhao, you don't treat me as your own."

Village Chief Zhao still knows the character of Village Chief Liu, so how could he be fooled by his tricks? If you think about me that much, then I can’t help it.”

Village Chief Liu looked at Village Chief Zhao suspiciously, "Then what should your village do now? Our village is going to discuss it tonight. When a charter is discussed, we will start construction. If your village wants to build The fence, it will be safe for the two villages to buy bricks together."

Village head Zhao didn't know how to reply. He couldn't completely deny that their village didn't build a fence, but it would be troublesome if they thought about it. At that time, Liu Laoqi would definitely ask people to ask him every day, no It was exposed.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Village Chief Liu believed what he said just now, thinking that he was thinking about it. Village Chief Zhao asked after a while, "Boy Mian, tell me."

Village head Liu turned a corner in his heart, what does this mean?It won't be what he thinks.

"Brother Zhao, are you an old man?" That's not right, I still have a son, why did I choose someone else's son.

Village Chief Zhao nodded with a smile, "That's not it. I'm getting old. I don't worry about Mr. Mian. My son can't do it. We also have to think about the village. This is not the past. , in the future, take care of yourself."

Zhao Mian's heart skipped a beat, when did the village chief value him?When did he show interest in the position of village chief?Zhao Mian was not very willing to take over the position of village chief, not to mention the thankless work, and he didn't feel that his situation was suitable.

But there's no rush, we'll talk about it when we get back.

"Sure enough, it's scary for young people." Village head Liu concealed the shock in his heart, he thought that Zhao Laojiu would wait until he was seventy and eighty before he wanted to retire.

"Boy Mian, what do you think about building the fence?" the village head asked again.

Zhao Mian asked Village Chief Liu, "Cunnel Chief Liu, are you saying that both Caojia Village and Shikou Village are building fences? Why didn't I see any movement when I passed by today?"

Village head Liu replied, "It is said that they are discussing. I don't know about Caojia Village, but Shikou Village must be confirmed. Otherwise, I wouldn't think about doing it."

Zhao Mian didn't want to do it with Village Chief Liu, "At that time, if our two villages do the same, so many people go to buy bricks, how could those refugees not know, if they come to make trouble, the fence will not be able to be built gone."

Village Chief Liu frowned, "Those people have already been scared by Cao's Village, they must stop."

Zhao Mian didn't answer. Their village had Black Stone Valley, so they might run out of materials, but Liujiatun didn't have any. If it was because of him, Liujiatun wouldn't build a fence, and he wouldn't be able to take responsibility if something happened.

Zhao Mian finally said, "Our village still has to go back and discuss it, but now we still want to build the house. Anyway, our village's courtyard is high, and it is not easy for others to come in. It is not in a hurry to build a fence."

Yes, there was a lot of trouble in Zhaojiatun some time ago, but it was not because of the fence. They were still smiling at that time, and the trouble was so fierce, it was not possible to build it, so they raised the courtyard wall at their own house. What's the use.

"That's right, your village isn't that worried." Village head Liu told the truth, the walls of Zhaojiatun's courtyard are high and it's hard to get in, so naturally he's not that anxious.

"It's getting late, let's go back first." Seeing that it was getting dark, Village Chief Zhao hurriedly got up and said goodbye.

Zhao Mian also got up, and Village Chief Liu got up to see them off.

"No need to send it away."

Village head Liu still sent people out of the village, looked at the back of the carriage, and sighed, "Oh, the times are different."

There are still a lot of troubles in the village. Village head Liu sighed and went back. Zhaojiatun didn’t pay attention to them.

Back in the village, everyone was eating, and the village chief was also hungry, but he went over and told everyone loudly.

"Everyone listen to me, this Liujiatun, the ox carts can't be borrowed, everyone, tomorrow I will take the carts in the village, except for the bicycles, all will pull stones, all men carry stones during the day and build walls at night, The car is not enough, so we all go to carry it together, and small stones are also fine."

"What? Village chief, this stone is not light, how can anyone carry it." Some people don't think about how heavy it is.

The village chief snorted coldly, "I've come through such a hard time before, why don't I just carry some stones, if I don't want to, our village will collect grain to buy bricks."

Someone thought it was feasible, and quickly asked, "Village chief, how much grain is there for bricks now? The last time Daqiang's family bought tens of thousands of bricks, it was only a thousand catties of grain, and it didn't take much grain to build the fence."

Some people thought it was not feasible, so they smiled and went back, "Hey, you want to say it, now Boss Zou heard that bricks are expensive to buy, and they call brothers and sisters with Chen Laosan, you still want to be so cheap now Lie, dreaming."

"Haha, it's just, it's a dream." Many people laughed, their relationship was not serious, and they took the opportunity to make fun of others, and they were happy too.

"Ah bah, then you are willing to carry stones, this road is not close."

There was a man who ate a mouthful of rice, the food was still in his mouth, and he couldn't speak clearly, "That can't be bought, it's so expensive, last time my relatives wanted to build a house, and the yard was not as big as my house, eighth There is absolutely no bargaining for a thousand catties of grain."

Everyone sighed, "Oh, that's a lot."

The building of the wall is not enough bricks to build a house, but the wall must be solid and thick!be high!At this time, the food spent, even if it is shared equally, is not a lot.

"Then, then recite it." Someone muttered, as if reluctant.

Seeing that everyone had almost made a decision, the village chief said loudly, "Anyone who disagrees, raise your hand."

The following raised a few hands sparingly, then looked around, everyone agreed, and put them down slowly.

"Okay, let's eat!" The village chief was also hungry, so he went to get some food satisfied.

Since An Huaize was not here, Zhao Mian would not stay here for dinner, but was stopped by the village chief when he was about to leave.

"Boy Mian, come here." The village chief called him over, and he had already bought him a bowl of rice.

Zhao Mian thought for a while, then turned around and walked over, took the meal, "Village Chief, is there anything else?"

"It's nothing to worry about, just to see why you don't come to eat." The village chief smiled, very happy.

Next to them were people of the village chief's generation, that is, old men who were a generation older than Zhao Mian. They were all in their fifties, and they laughed when they heard the village chief's words.

"Aren't you asking knowingly, you are not ashamed, you are making fun of Mian boy."

"Isn't that right, Doctor An is not here, boy Mian will definitely go home, you are not making it difficult for boy Mian, and you will make Doctor An complain all night when you go back."

When the village chief heard this, he slapped his forehead, "Why did I forget, Mian boy, you should go home quickly."

"It's okay, you can eat here." Zhao Mian squatted down and ate with everyone.

"Oh, this boy Mian doesn't even blush. I remember that Dr. An went to the ancestral hall with a blushing face a few days ago, or that Dr. An was thin-skinned."

Zhao Mian smiled and didn't answer, everyone would find it boring if they joked a little more, but they were thinking in their hearts, Dr. An is thin-skinned, and he looks like a good joke, but he doesn't look like a joke.

After a long time, everyone has gradually accepted this male couple, and they would joke a few times at ordinary times, but I don't think there is anything wrong with it, they are just living their lives anyway.

If you want to say that people can't bear children, they just produced a son, and it's also on the family tree.If you want to say that people can't live on, they only brought a few things when they separated, and now they are living on their own ability.If you want to say that people can't have their wives and children on the kang, they live in peace and beauty, ouch, I've never seen such sticky things.

Country people rely on the sky for food, work in the fields every day, and have a lot of work at home. They have to think about how to support their families all day long. Although everyone has food in storage, this habit can’t be changed. Anyway, every day It's a good job, gossip when you are free, who has time to really mind so much.

In less than 10 minutes, everyone put down the bowls. It was already night, and the wires were pulled over. The hall was also bright, and gradually there was a wind. Everyone dared not waste time and started to work again.

The aunts in the village also started to work. Zhao Daqiang's family only had an acre of vegetable fields, and An Huaize was not needed for weeding. An Huaize was in the yard, using a flashlight to weed the vegetable fields.

There is no grass in the medicine field, perhaps it is the characteristic of this species, which saves a lot of trouble.The vegetable field is upstairs, and there is a lot of grass, but these are not as unrecognizable as the grass in the rice field, An Huaize did not admit his mistake.

Zhao Ergou's condition is more serious, unlike Yoyo's. From the very beginning, Sunrise Fruit was there to guard him. An Huaize almost brought Zhao Ergou back from the brink of death. Until today, the fever has only started to subside, and it has already subsided. It's forty degrees.

At the construction site, after Zhao Mian came back, An Huaize had already fallen asleep, Zhao Mian rubbed his temples, sat by the bed for a while, An An woke up, after giving An An the milk powder, Zhao Mian had no time to rest, Hurry up and leave.

Until the afternoon, An Huaize came back late this time. Upstairs, Zhao Mian was already resting. An An was moving all the time, which was a bit noisy. An Huaize carried An An out, so don't disturb Brother Mian to sleep.

After a few days, An Huaize and Zhao Mian never had a chance to meet each other. Every time An Huaize woke up, Zhao Mian was still at the construction site. An Huaize's studies have increased a lot now, and he has to spend a little more time every day. When I came back, Zhao Mian was already resting.

Zhao Ergou's condition is basically under control, and he no longer has a fever. An Huaize has not received food from Zhao Ergou's family before, mainly because, after his condition is under control, when he has learned the current knowledge module, he will start If the prescription is adjusted, it may cause death or it may have no effect, so An Huaize has never mentioned the matter of food.

However, the second son of a bitch watched her son's fever subside day by day, and she was so happy that she brought a lot of vegetables, eggs, and a live chicken, and a cart full of food to the door.

This is the time for dinner at night, Zhao Er will not eat, someone asked, and Zhao Er replied with a loud smile, "Our second dog has no fever, we are going to thank Dr. An, I can't say too much Days, our second dog will be fine."

Zhao Er ran back while talking, his smiling eyes disappeared, and everyone looked at the people next to him in surprise.

"Zhao Er said that his son's fever is gone? Oh, this is a plague. There is no way to the south. Doctor An can really cure it?"

"Dr. An is still studying with Uncle Qi, why is he so capable?"

Someone clapped their hands as if they had realized it, "Oh, the medicines that Dr. An gave us seem to be all Western medicines. Dr. An can't know Chinese medicine, but Western medicine is very good?"

Everyone nodded in agreement, "It must be like this. Regardless of the medicine that Dr. An has prescribed for us during this period, there is really nothing wrong with it. Oh, who said that a male daughter-in-law is not good? Other doctors are strong, ouch, we will not be afraid of the plague in the future."

Yes, Dr. An can cure the plague, so why are they afraid of the plague? At most, they can just spend more food, and it’s not that they can’t cure it.

"It's a good thing we didn't object to Dr. An's entry into the genealogy at the beginning, otherwise, we don't know what to do now."

A bunch of people were laughing and talking, their faces were full of smiles, they always felt like they were not tired after a day’s work, everyone was very excited, and the people who were usually red-faced were not red-faced anymore, they were all together talking.

Someone stood up excitedly and shouted, "Village chief! Let's have a drink today. Dr. An will cure the plague. Let's celebrate in the village."

Everyone stood far away before, didn't notice their conversation, and immediately exploded, "Have a drink, drink, celebrate, village chief, it's time to celebrate!"

Everyone laughed and got up like crazy, jumping and jumping.

Zhao Mian didn't hear it just now, but now every time he eats, he is dragged over by the village chief to eat, which is a bit far away, and when he hears it, his heart skips a beat. Others don't know what's going on, but he doesn't know?

Zhao Mian quickly put down the bowl, the village chief was about to talk to everyone, Zhao Mian hurriedly said first, "Everyone be quiet, uncles, Ozawa hasn't found a cure yet, now he just needs to stabilize his condition!"

Zhao Mian's voice was loud enough for everyone to hear clearly. In the beginning, everyone was still arguing and yelling, but Zhao Mian repeated it several times. The smiles on everyone's faces stopped, and they all gradually calmed down.

"Uncles, brothers, Ozawa hasn't developed a prescription yet, and now he's just trying to stabilize his condition. Don't get me wrong."

Some people were unhappy and felt that they had been fooled. Originally, this was Zhao Er's mistake, but many people put the fault on Zhao Mian and the other two.

"What? So it wasn't like this, it made us happy for nothing."

Everyone had disappointment on their faces, and quite a few sat down with grimaces. The village chief was also disappointed, but if it was that easy, it wouldn't be a plague.

Zhao Mian knew that everyone was a little bit resentful to them. Although the blame was inexplicable, Zhao Mian still didn't explain it any further. If he spoke again, some people might retort. Everyone was a little angry now.

Seeing this, the village chief raised his hand to press the air, and told everyone to sit down, "Okay, everyone, don't be dejected, it's good if you can control the disease, who can do this now, don't you just Dr. An, this is the first one, think about it, maybe there is no one in the south, otherwise it will be infected here, if you can stabilize it now, you can save your life, and worry about whether it can be cured? You can, I just love to think about it, anyway, you are not sick, why are you disappointed, Dr. An is very skilled in medicine, isn't that good?"

Zhao Mian opened his mouth, Ozawa would be able to deal with such minor ailments and pains because of his high medical skills, but he knew that if he explained it now, it would be a real disappointment.

Many people calmed down again, with smiles on their faces again, "That's right, if it can be cured so quickly, how can it be like this now, it's good to be able to control it, I heard it before, among the refugees People who had a fever died, ouch, this can control the disease, at least save their lives, Dr. An can figure out a way to control the disease so quickly, so there is no need to worry about it being cured.”

"Exactly, Doctor An..."

They were all praises, but Zhao Mian felt chills behind him. It is best not to have any serious illnesses in the village in the future, otherwise Ozawa's three-legged cat's medical skills must not be exposed. By then everyone will know that Ozawa will only Some colds, fevers, and other treatments are probably about to explode.I just hope that the time will be longer, and Ozawa's confidence will be higher, so I won't reveal anything.

Someone took the opportunity to suggest, "Village Chief, do you want to celebrate tonight?"

Everyone was eager to move, and the village chief put on a tiger's face, "I'm celebrating my size, I just want to be lazy, don't I, let me eat for me, go to work quickly, wait for the small fence to be finished, and there will be a big fence."

What?And a big wall?Everyone lose face, what year and month will we have to do this.

Before everyone could speak, the village head said loudly, "The big wall is necessary, and oh, it will be much larger than the outermost field. It will be convenient for everyone to open up wasteland. The per capita field in our village is still small." A little bit. Even if you don’t open up wasteland, if you don’t build a big wall, you don’t have to be afraid that when the autumn harvest comes, you can come here and grab it. Not enough, a big wall can’t be built in a day or two, this small wall can’t be built. Well, the autumn harvest is almost here, and we have to wait until next year."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, it’s good to be able to breathe a sigh of relief, they can’t build a house when it’s cold here, otherwise, once the ice and snow melt and the permafrost loosens in the next year, there’s no need for this house .

At the beginning of July, people from Liujiatun, Shikou Village, and Caojiacun went out to buy bricks together, but none of them came to call Zhaojiatun. Everyone knows that Zhaojiatun is poor and picky, and now there is one more, short-sighted!

The lives of Zhao Mian and An Huaize continued. Zhao Mian would come back every day at noon, and the two of them could occasionally speak a word because An Huaize got out of class early. This time, it was not many times, just once or twice .

Because there are not many vehicles and the efficiency is not high, only a small section of the fence was built, and it is estimated that it will take more than a month.

Everyone started to grow Chinese cabbage. Many people stopped growing vegetables in their fields. They pulled out vegetables and planted them in the yard. They ate the excess and used it to grow Chinese cabbage.

Life is boring, but the atmosphere at the construction site is high. Every day, I can find something interesting for myself. Everyone has fun for a long time without feeling tired.

On an ordinary day, another accident happened at home. As soon as An Huaize came out of the ancestral hall, he heard Aunt Dagen and several aunts whispering this.

"Oh, you said that everyone is busy these days, and this kind of thing happened to Xiaoyue of the old Zhao's family. Oh, who will want her in the future?"

"What, what, what, whoever wants her, must marry that man back, otherwise Xiaoyue will be abolished, ouch, she is only fifteen or sixteen, a big girl with yellow flowers, she hasn't said goodbye yet, she actually I have it in my stomach."

"It's really embarrassing to our old Zhao family. Why are you so indiscreet? Didn't someone see her meeting a little brother a while ago, the two of you, holding hands or something, young people, it's not surprising , Who knew, this Zhao Yue is so courageous, now it's all right, her innocence is gone."

"No, I'm telling you, she... hey, Dr. An, why are you here?" Aunt Dagen smiled awkwardly. When the aunts saw it, their faces were very embarrassed. It's not good to speak ill of my sister-in-law in front of you.

"Passing by, I'll go back first." An Huaize smiled, and he also felt embarrassed. He originally thought that he didn't hear him walking past, but this is the grain drying field, so he couldn't avoid it, and he was seen by anyone who knew it.

"Hey, let's go back too." Everyone just felt that Dr. An was a little angry in his smile, how could he smile so forcedly if he wasn't angry.

An Huaize walked back, had dinner, it was already afternoon, and Brother Mian was not there anymore, so he hugged An An and passed his parents' side. When he first entered the courtyard, he felt that it was too quiet. When he entered the main room, he found that it seemed to be solved.

"Father, mother." An Huaize walked inside.

Zhao's father and Zhao's mother looked better, An Huaize hurriedly hugged An An, "An An hasn't been hugged by grandparents for a long time."

An Huaize put An An in Zhao Daqiang's arms, Zhao Daqiang laughed again, and lifted An An up, "Oh, grandpa's little grandson."

An An giggled, feeling very excited, waving her little hand vigorously, Liu Cuihua secretly rolled her eyes.

Zhao Yue knelt on the ground, An Huaize was afraid that something might happen to her body, so she said, "Let Xiaoyue get up, don't hurt her body."

Mother Zhao snorted, "Xiao Ze, go and see for a few months."

An Huaize smiled wryly. Fortunately, he could feel the pulse, but it was only a theory, but An Huaize still passed by, and gave Zhao Yue a pulse.

He didn't understand, so he got up and shook his head, "Mom, I don't know."

Zhao's mother laughed angrily, "I don't know what you are going to do."

"Xiaoyue said that at the end of May, she and... that kid did that stupid thing, and at the beginning of June... well, what a crime, it's almost like a month or two."

An Huaize felt quite convinced of Zhao Yue in his heart. He didn't know what Zhao Yue thought, but maybe everyone here should bear a little bit of the responsibility, but An Huaize didn't have time to take care of Zhao Yue. It's not his sister, if it's like Zhao Mei, he still likes it and is sensible.Now I can only hope that the man's side will be smoother and marry him back as soon as possible.
