The leisurely life of rebirth
Chapter 721
"Haha... I've been living with my old neighbor for more than 20 years and it's always been like this. Don't mind." Uncle Zhang smiled and looked at Fang Monan and the others.
"Xiao Zhang! Why are you back so early today?" Fat Aunt said with a smile, "Hey! There are guests here, so I won't disturb you."
"Oh! By the way, your wife coughed again at noon. She has a cold. You have to be careful in this weather. But your wife had lunch and drank medicine, so she didn't hear the cough now." Fatty.
The aunt said with lingering fear, "When your wife coughs, everyone in the hospital becomes frightened."
"Sorry to trouble you again, Fat Aunt." Uncle Zhang said, cupping his hands.
"What are you talking about? We live in the same courtyard. As the saying goes, distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. If something happens to our family, you can still stand by and watch. Whose family doesn't have three disasters?" The fat aunt quickly handled the situation.
With her clothes hanging on her shoulders, "I won't talk to you anymore, come in quickly!" She waved her hand and said, "What a damn weather." [
The fat aunt watched them open the curtain and enter the house, shaking her head, alas! Every family has its own problems. What a wonderful family. Alas! There is no woman to take care of the family. It just doesn't work.
"It's like this in all courtyards! It's all trivial things, thanks to everyone's help these years." Uncle Zhang quickly took out two small benches from the corner, "You guys sit down first, this room is filled with the smell of medicine...
"
"Is everything okay? I just smell the friendly fragrance of this medicine." Fang Monan waved his hand and said with a smile.
"Uncle Zhang boil the meat buns first and eat them while they are hot." Fang Monan said with a smile, "I wasn't full just now, so when they are cold they taste fishy."
Fang Monan handed all the buns to Uncle Zhang. He directly picked up the teapot sitting on the stove, put the cooking pot on the fire, and then poured in the hot water in the teapot. It heated up quickly. He put the buns on the grate.
Go up and cover the pot.
The layout of this courtyard is much smaller than that of Feng Zhi's family. There is no heating in this courtyard, but every family has a stove, and the rooms are small and well sealed, so the room is very warm.
Entering the door is the main room, but the main room of this small courtyard is very small, only about ten square meters in total. Except for a dining table in the middle and a wooden washstand and stove at the door, there is not much left.
There are two rooms on both sides of the main room, both of which are blocked by curtains. They must be the bedrooms of Uncle Zhang, his wife and the children.
However, this small room was filled with a strong smell of medicine. Next to the stove next to the door, there was a clay pot with boiled Chinese medicine in it.
Fang Monan knew as soon as he smelled it that it was used to treat phlegm and asthma.
"You guys sit down first, I'll go in and take a look." Uncle Zhang stood up and opened the door curtain and entered the bedroom on the left.
*********************
"What are you thinking about?" He Junyao took Fang Monan's hand and leaned forward and whispered in her ear.
"The warmth of the courtyard." Fang Monan pursed his lips and smiled.
A Siheyuan is an orderly family with young and old, and a large courtyard is almost a small society. There are more helping each other, chatting, and joking than in later generations. Especially in the alleys of the capital in the old days, people living in Siheyuan lived at a slow pace, and the lifestyle they brought was also
Tranquility, peace, leisure, and conversation.
The courtyard has left behind so many people’s childhood and joy; the dear and respectable grandma in the south house, the aunt in the north house, and the uncle in the backyard of the second aunt in the east house. The lotus vat and pomegranate tree in the yard, the ice watermelon in the summer and the frozen persimmons in the winter, all together
Childhood friends who played games together in school... I believe everyone who has lived in a courtyard house will miss him deeply.
"The old alleys that stretch for thousands of years are always filled with deep warmth. The people who have lived here for generations have a lifelong friendship.
The children have grown up together since childhood, and they are familiar with each other as if they are brothers. The grandparents and aunts in the neighborhood are like members of their own family.
No matter how big or small the family affairs are, everything is stored in their hearts. When they encounter difficulties, they don’t need your words. You can greet them and ask for help. Everything is clear to them.
The three delicacies dumplings in the east room are delicious, the noodles in the west room are good, the Xixizi storytelling in the south room is the best, and the aroma of braised pork in the north room fills the courtyard, and everyone in the family, young and old, can also taste the meat.[
Several families share toilets and running water, which can be very tense at times but can be considerate and courteous. Neighbors all come out for weddings and funerals, and the joys, sorrows, and joys touch everyone's hearts.
The most unforgettable scene is the Chinese New Year. As soon as the twelfth lunar month comes, there is movement in every house. The tailoring and mending machines start to be busy, and the sheets and mattresses are washed and rinsed.
Sweeping the house and pasting the walls to clear away a year's dust, cutting flowers and pasting Spring Festival couplets make it more festive, hanging lanterns and buying firecrackers are the happiest things for children, and adults are worried about buying new year's goods.
Peanuts and melon seeds are only available during the Chinese New Year. You have to rely on your skills to buy hairtail and meat. The women are showing off their skills in frying and frying, and the men are looking after everything." Fang Monan glanced at him and said, "How about it?
?”
"Very vivid!" He Junyao nodded. It felt like a picture scroll unfolding in front of him. "There should be more!"
"Listen: after a busy year, everyone has free time at this time. People in other places are also busy rushing home. Neighbors in the yard are coming in and out. Everything is busy all day long with New Year matters.
On the thirtieth night, everything comes to an end. The whole family reunites happily for the New Year's Eve dinner. The children set off flowers and firecrackers and go crazy around the world. It's hard to fall asleep with candies and New Year's money on their heads.
The New Year's greetings early in the morning are the most exciting. The elderly have packed up early and are sitting in the hall. The children and grandchildren kowtow one by one and no one is in vain. Respecting the old and loving the young is a good family tradition passed down from our ancestors.
Neighbors were also busy coming to visit, and congratulations were heard before anyone came in. Young men, young men, girls and wives all came out, and the whole courtyard was laughing and celebrating the New Year.
The old neighbors have been getting along for decades, and have become familiar with each other's temperament and temperament. They always take care of each other and are accommodating when things happen. Everyone is friendly, kind and extremely close.
Now, although they have moved into new buildings, the ones they miss the most are the old neighbors. The old people still talk on the phone from time to time and ask the kids to come over for a drink when they are free.
Although people live in very spacious homes nowadays, they feel empty in their hearts, adding a lot of loneliness and care. The excitement and family affection of the past are missing."
"Siheyuan, surrounded by four walls, keeps out the noise. No matter how lively the streets outside are, or how busy the lives of the people outside the walls are, once you enter these walls, you are home, and life here will always be leisurely and comfortable.
And these four walls have become a warm line of defense for people's peace of mind." He Junyao said with rare warmth. Although he has never lived in a courtyard, the courtyard is also full of warmth.
*********************************
"Read the full text of Lao Zhang Hun Sacrifice Corpse Charm! You're back so early." A woman's voice came from the room. She was short of breath. She was very weak. She started to gasp after saying a word, accompanied by a shredding cough. "Cough.
……cough……"
Seeing that his wife started coughing again, Uncle Zhang quickly poured a glass of warm water and fed her to drink it, "Yunxia, are you okay?"
"Oh! It's okay, I'm just dragging you down with my poor clothes." Yunxia sighed.
"What are you talking about? You are better off alive than anything else!" Uncle Zhang said with a gentle smile, his simple words embodying his wishes.
"By the way. I sold a bronze sword today and got 10,000 yuan, which is enough for your medicine for a few months." Uncle Zhang said to his wife with a smile. "Get up, there is a doctor outside, let me know."
Let me show you, I think this doctor has a good temperament, let her try it!"
"Okay! Help me up." Yun Xia originally refused, but saw the hopeful look in his eyes and swallowed it back.
Uncle Zhang opened the quilt, put on Yunxia's coat to keep out the cold, squatted down and put her shoes away, helped her pull her shoes, and helped her open the curtain to the living room.
Just for a while, the coughing didn't stop. The face was red from coughing, which looked very beautiful, but it was so abnormal.[
When He Junyao saw the two of them coming out, he quickly took out the two remaining stools in the corner and handed them to Uncle Zhang. Uncle Zhang arranged the stools and helped Yunxia sit down.
After Uncle Zhang sat down, he introduced Fang Monan and the others to each other. From the introduction, Fang Monan knew that Uncle Zhang's name was Zhang Cheng'an and his daughter-in-law's name was Cui Yunxia. The couple had been married for twenty years.
It is said that a filial son is a filial son before he is ill for a long time. Zhang Chengan did not abandon his wife even after she had been ill for so many years. This shows that he is a kind-hearted, honest and a man.
While she was talking, Cui Yunxia started coughing again, as if her heart was about to come out.
Seeing this, Fang Monan quickly stood up, held one of Cui Yunxia's hands with his left hand, and turned her palm upward. Fang Monan used the threaded surface of his right thumb to point from the horizontal stripe of the second interphalangeal joint of Cui Yunxia's ring finger to the
tip.
Fang Monan recited the numbers in his mind until he took it 81 times. The part where Cui Yunxia was taken was already red, and her wrist was slightly sore.
The coughing gradually stopped, "Oh! It's amazing." Uncle Zhang looked at Fang Monan with wide eyes and said in disbelief, "Yunxia's coughing didn't stop so quickly in the past. This...this...what's going on?
What's going on?"
"This is given by Chinese medicine. Its purpose is to clear the lung meridian and specifically relieve coughs. It is also very fast." Fang Monan said with a smile.
"It's so magical, teach me!" Uncle Zhang said eagerly, with a look of excitement on his face, "In the future, Yunxia will use this to quickly relieve her cough."
"This is simple," Fang Monan taught him step by step, "take this, don't use too much force. You can also do it when you don't have a fever or cough, but you don't need to do it too many times, preferably in multiples of 7 or 9.
, that is, get 49 or 81 times.”
"Why does this have to be a multiple of 7 or 9?" Uncle Zhang asked, as long as it was about his wife's troubles, he would not hesitate to ask.
"The Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic talks about yin and yang and magic numbers, which shows that 'numbers' have a profound impact on the human body. 7 is the number of turning points. Do you hope for a turnaround when you are sick? 9 is a variable. The ancients had a saying that 'Every nine is sure to happen'
The theory of change." Fang Monan explained with a smile.
"Traditional Chinese medicine has a saying that it takes seven days to pass on all the scriptures." Cui Yunxia agreed with a smile.
"Yeah! Yeah! Aunt Zhang seems to have a family background!" Fang Monan's eyes lit up and he said, most people know that a cold will heal itself in seven days. Of course, it is a common cold, if it is viral
You have to take medicine, otherwise it will not be good if it turns into pneumonia.
