For a young mountain kid, more than ten yuan is not a small amount of money. After getting the money, a group of children didn't even bother to eat the watermelon and left in a hurry. Some went to the store to buy things.

Some of them show off in front of their partners or alone.

Zhang Taiping found a dustpan and spread out the honeysuckle in a cool place to let it dry.

You said to Ye Ling: "Go to the back room and take out the old man's teapot, and I'll make some tea with honeysuckle."

Honeysuckle tea that has not been processed is the most primitive honeysuckle tea, and there is no distinction between good and bad. It is just an ordinary drink in rural areas.

The induction cooker boiled a pot of water, cleaned the honeysuckle first, and then filled the old man's purple clay pot with it for Ye Ling to put in again. Then he soaked half of the pot in a pot and added some honey to it.

Drink it not as tea, but as a good medicine for clearing away heat, detoxifying and dispersing wind and heat.

After brewing, the color is light golden, and as the heat rises, it emits a sweet honey smell and a faint medicinal smell. It makes you want to drink it. A bowl was given to each of the girls, and some food was given to Ghost Face and Ah Huang.

Some were poured into the box. For dogs, June and July are the two most difficult months of the year. Zhang Taiping is also very dedicated to taking care of them.

The rest is placed in the refrigerator to freeze. If you are thirsty later, you can serve it out at any time, which not only quenches thirst but also relieves heat.

After drinking a bowl of tea and resting for a while, it was almost noon. Zhang Taiping was a little surprised why Cai Yazhi hadn't come back at this time.

"Ye Ling, do you know what your aunt and Aunt Lu are doing out there?"

Ye Ling shook his head and said he didn't know, but said to Zhang Taiping: "I'll go cook."

Zhang Taiping asked: "What are you going to cook?"

"What do you want to eat, master?"

Zhang Taiping asked everyone: "What do you want to eat?"

Fan Ming said: "Let's eat noodles." As a native of Guanzhong, Shaanxi, if you don't eat noodles for a day, you will feel uncomfortable all over the body.

Zhang Taiping rolled his eyes at her and said, "You have been helping to cook for many days. Don't you know that noodles need to be prepared several hours in advance? How can you do that now?"

"Oh, what to eat?"

"Draught water surface!" Yaya raised her hand and said. The water surface she said is what people in the mountains call it. It actually means garlic dipped in noodles or water dipped in water.

Zhang Taiping thought for a while and realized that it was easy to make by dipping it in water and tasted good, so he said: "Then let's make this, but Fan Ming, you have to help Ye Ling cook."

Fan Ming nodded, rolled up his sleeves and followed Ye Ling into the kitchen.

Zhang Taiping asked the little girl Tiantian again: "Tiantian, do you know what your mother and Aunt Cai did?"

"My mother and Aunt Cai went to grandma's house." Tiantian said.

Her grandfather and grandmother in the Wang family have passed away long ago. The grandmother mentioned here should refer to her grandmother. Some children in the mountains can’t tell the difference between their grandmother and their grandmother. Zhang Taiping nodded, as long as he knew them

You can rest assured knowing your specific whereabouts.

Just when he was about to go out for a walk, the old man came out. Behind him was a young woman supporting an old woman about fifty years old. Judging from this posture, it seemed that the old man had something wrong with his legs or waist.

"This patient is going to stay here for a while for long-term treatment. You go to the village and find a house for them to live in." After saying that, the old man turned around and went into the back room. Now everyone in the nearby village knew that he was there again.

After going down the mountain, people came over to see if they were sick, no matter how big or small, so he had almost no free time from morning to night. When Zhang Taiping saw that the old man was so tired, he was afraid that his body would be overwhelmed and wanted to ask him to give up treating people, but the old man did not agree.

Zhang Taiping had no choice.

Zhang Taiping nodded and said, "Okay, leave this matter to me."

The young woman who was supporting the old woman nodded gently and thanked her: "I'm really sorry to trouble you."

Zhang Taiping shook his head and led the two of them towards the village. Since the old man had some difficulty in moving, Zhang Taiping walked very slowly. As he walked towards the young woman, he said, "Your accent sounds like you are not a local. How did you end up here?"

Are you going to see a doctor in the mountains?"

The woman carefully helped the old man forward and replied: "We are indeed not locals, but from Hanzhong in the south. My mother's old waist problem has been seen in numerous hospitals, but nothing has improved. With this

My relatives in your town spoke highly of the old gentleman, so I brought my mother over to give it a try."

The old woman said angrily: "I have told you many times that if it can't be cured, don't waste any more money, but she just doesn't listen. She even gave up her job this time. It's really inappropriate!"

Zhang Taiping smiled and said: "Don't say that, old man. I think you are still young. As long as there is a chance of cure, you should not give up. Moreover, this is a filial piety and obligation for children. As long as you can

It doesn’t matter how much it costs to cure it.”

The old woman nodded slightly and said: "I also know this truth, but I have looked at many places and I just spent money without seeing any improvement."

Zhang Taiping nodded and said: "This is indeed a problem. Generally, diseases on the waist and legs are difficult to treat, and some will relapse after treatment. Many people give up treatment because it is not a thankless expense.

"

"Yes, that's it. If my daughter hadn't wanted me to come here for treatment, I would have given up." The old man agreed with Zhang Taiping's statement, and then asked, "Is that old gentleman your biological grandfather?"

"Yes."

"How old are you?" The old woman was a little surprised.

Zhang Taiping replied: "My grandfather is over ninety years old."

"I'm over ninety years old and my body still looks strong and free from illness and disaster. What I envy most now are old people like your grandfather."

"The old man has been a Chinese medicine doctor all his life and knows some conditioning methods, so his body is much better than others."

"Then I wonder if the old gentleman can cure my illness?" the old woman finally asked.

Zhang Taiping said with a smile: "I don't have the final say on this, it depends on the old man's ability. But you don't have to worry, the old man has a rule when seeing a doctor, which is that there is no medical fee during the treatment. After the treatment,

If you don’t get better, there will be no charge. Only when you get better, all the medical expenses will be collected together. So you don’t have to worry about wasting money.”

"Is there such a statement?" The young woman was also quite surprised.

"This is the rule that the old man has practiced medicine for many years. Didn't your relative tell you?"

"No." The young woman shook her head.

Originally, there would be an empty house in the larger village chief's house, but these days the village chief has been busy with the hot springs. Zhang Taiping didn't want to cause trouble to him in the past, so he took the mother and daughter directly to Wang Bajin's house.

in.

"What do you want, handsome?" The person looking after the store was Han Cuihua, Wang Bajin's daughter-in-law.

"I'm not here to buy anything. I'm bringing two people here." Zhang Taiping replied.

Han Cuihua looked at the mother and daughter behind Zhang Taiping and said, "What's going on?"

Zhang Taiping pointed to the mother and daughter behind him and said: "This old man has some pain in his waist. He is currently being treated by the old man. He will live in the village for a while. There are no empty houses in my house, so I came here to let them temporarily

Live in your home."

"How long do you want to stay?" Han Cuihua asked.

Zhang Taiping understood what she was thinking and said with a smile: "It can take as little as twenty days, or as long as it depends on the situation."

Hearing that the time was not short, Han Cuihua immediately smiled on her face. Living for such a long time would definitely not be in vain. She was naturally happy that she could make money, and said enthusiastically: "I will clean the room right now."

"Why are you anxious?" Zhang Taiping said behind.

"Ah? What else is going on?"

Zhang Taiping looked at the mother and daughter. The young woman asked, "How much does it cost to live in a house for a day?"

Han Cuihua didn't know much about this. After thinking about it, she still had no idea. If she said too much, she would scare him away and make Zhang Dashuai angry. If she said too little, it would be her own loss. She simply looked at Zhang Taiping and asked him to say something.

In any case, people in a village will not lie to themselves about the number.

Zhang Taiping looked at the two parties and said: "Then five hundred yuan a month. If there are odd days that are less than a month, it will be calculated as twenty yuan a day. As for the meal issue, you can discuss it separately, how about it?"

After hearing this, Han Cuihua immediately smiled and nodded in agreement. Five hundred yuan a month was already beyond the highest price she had thought of.

The young woman also nodded. Although the price was not low in the countryside, it was still reasonable and fair, and she did not ask for money randomly.

"Then it's settled. You go see the house. You can discuss the future matters. If you can't solve the problem or you have any difficulties, you can tell me." Zhang Taiping said to the mother and daughter, and then turned to Han Cuihua, "Take care of the room."

It’s time to clean it up.”

"I know this, don't worry." Han Cuihua responded.

After making arrangements for the mother and daughter, Zhang Taiping returned home. Ye Ling made noodles and Fan Ming helped beside him. Finally, the two little girls also joined in choosing the dishes, and soon the meal was ready.

Zhang Taiping called Cai Yazhi before going down, but the phone was always turned off. Zhang Taiping frowned and was a little worried. The lion followed her in the morning. He thought nothing would happen in the mountain village, so he planned to eat

If she hasn't come back after dinner, go over and see what's going on.

The water for dipping is placed in a large basin. There are cubes cut with a knife and round shapes pressed with cups. There is a sauce bowl filled with minced garlic in front of each person. Zhang Taiping and the old man have another bowl on top.

Added a layer of spicy oil.

Everyone who likes spicy food will have tongue coating and open their index fingers when seeing such a scene.

After sitting down, the old man saw that Ye Ling and Fan Ming were busy, so he asked, "Why don't you see the Xiaozhi people?"

Zhang Taiping replied: "She and Lu Feng went to Lu Feng's natal home in Tuping Village this morning, and she hasn't come back yet. I plan to go over and have a look after dinner."

"Yeah." The old man nodded, "Don't let anything happen."

Dip the noodles into the bowl and you will find the spicy, sour and garlic flavor. This is the favorite of Guanzhong people.

It was supposed to be a refreshing meal, but it was interrupted by Xiao Xi who flew in midway.

Xiao Xi flew in. It went out with Cai Yazhi in the morning. Now that it is back, Cai Yazhi should be back. Yaya shouted: "Mom is back!"

Zhang Taiping didn't think so, because he saw anxiety in Xiao Xi's body.

Sure enough, after Xiao Xi landed on his shoulder, he didn't want to eat or drink as usual, but pointed anxiously outside with his wings, kept chirping at the end, and then flew outside again.

Everyone noticed that Xiao Xi was acting unusually. Zhang Taiping put down the bowl of noodles that he had not yet eaten and followed Xiao Xi out of the house. It flew towards the distance and motioned for Zhang Taiping to follow. Zhang Taiping understood that it must be

Something happened to Cai Yazhi and Lu Feng's family. They went into the yard, took out their motorcycles, and followed Xiao Xi towards Tuping Village.

On the way, he called Cai Yazhi once with his mobile phone, but it was still turned off. This directly caused him to increase the speed of his motorcycle to a very high level. When he drove past Fengyukou Village, he brought up a trail of dust on the cement floor, attracting the villagers.

People inside looked sideways.

Zhang Taiping slowed down his motorcycle when detouring from Huanshan Road into Tuping Village. One reason was that the road here was not as flat as in Fengyukou Village, and the other reason was that he did not know the road to Lu Feng’s mother’s house, so he had to

Follow Xiao Xi there.

After a long journey, we arrived at Lu Feng's parents' house, which was a small courtyard. When Zhang Taiping parked his motorcycle at the entrance of the courtyard, he heard Cai Yazhi's surprised voice coming from inside: "Are you here?"

When she entered, she saw Xiao Xi standing on her shoulders, waving her wings and nodding.

Seeing Zhang Taiping come in, he breathed a long sigh of relief and relaxed. Today's events really frightened her, and she saw clearly the warmth and coldness of human relationships.

After Zhang Taiping entered the yard, he looked around at the scene inside the yard. Lu Zhengqiang was nodding and bowing in front of a man and saying something. The door was locked, Cai Yazhi blocked the door, and the lion stood loyally beside her, never leaving, vigilantly.

He looked at the people in the yard and refused to let them get close. An old man was sitting in the corner of the yard smoking a cigarette. His face was wrinkled and helpless. He looked like the master of the house who was causing trouble. There was also an old woman lying on the window.

What are you talking about.

When Zhang Taiping walked towards the door and saw Cai Yazhi, he paused to see what she was talking about.

"Think about it carefully, that man has been dead for many years, what's the use of staying there? The person your brother introduced to you is rich and good-looking, what else are you dissatisfied with?" the old woman seemed to say.

He advised me earnestly and earnestly.

Zhang Taiping glanced at the man who was chatting and laughing with Lu Zhengqiang, and felt a pain in his balls again. If a man with a belly like a pregnant woman could be called handsome, then there would be no ugly people in the world.

"Since I married the Wang family, I will be a member of the Wang family when I live, and I will be a ghost of the Wang family when I die!" This was Lu Feng's voice, as strong as ever.

The old woman was a little angry: "You lose money, don't be ungrateful. You already have a small oil bottle. It's already your blessing that people want you. I don't agree, I don't agree. Could it be that you have it in Wangjiagougou?"

mistress?"

"You..." Lu Feng, who was locked behind his back in the room, was so angry that he couldn't speak.

Zhang Taiping frowned and felt a little angry in his heart. Is this what a mother should say to her daughter? Especially for a widow, it is so heartbreaking. He couldn't help but wonder if these were Lu Feng's biological parents.

.

"Ah." Lu Zhengqiang, who was talking and laughing, saw Zhang Taiping walking into the courtyard. His smile froze on his face and he took a step back. He felt as if he had swallowed an egg and was speechless. He waited for Zhang Taiping to walk over.

Then he shouted to the old woman who was lying on the window talking obscenities, "Mom, this is that bitch's mistress, the one who hurt me last time."

Lu Zhengqiang shouted such words recklessly not just because he was in his home or for other reasons.

Zhang Taiping's eyes flashed and he ignored him for the time being. He would have to deal with him again when he left later. Looking at the old woman who turned her head, the word "sharp-mouthed and monkey-cheeked" came to mind, even though it was used to describe an older woman.

There is something wrong with being a father and daughter, but she is the most appropriate word for her. If she had golden hair, even Wukong would probably regard her as the same kind.

The eyes are small and may look inappropriate if placed on other people's faces, but when placed on her face, they feel as they should be, adding to the mean look on her face.
