Dai Hongmei, who was supporting Luo Xuan, was frightened, frightened and anxious. The small distance had exhausted all her strength.
He helped Luo Xuan into the dense bamboo forest. Dai Hongmei, who was completely limp, gently put Luo Xuan down and laid her down half-lying against the bamboo.
"Luo Xuan, please lie down here for now. I'll call your father."
Dai Hongmei knew that Luo Tiezhu was taking a lunch break at home at this time. If he went to Luo Xuan's house, he would definitely be able to find him.
Luo Xuan was so dizzy that he didn't hear clearly what Dai Hongmei was saying. He didn't say anything when he heard the words, and just lay there in confusion.
After a while, Luo Tiezhu and Dai Hongmei arrived in a hurry, "Luo Xuan! How are you?"
Luo Tiezhu stepped forward, grabbed Luo Xuan's shoulders, shook Luo Xuan with an anxious look on his face and asked him: "What's wrong with you?"
Luo Xuan replied feebly: "I...I'm dizzy."
Luo Tiezhu raised his head, turned his face sideways, and said to Dai Hongmei with a little embarrassment: "Hongmei, please go to the storage room and call Luo Xuan...ah, let her go home, and I will take Luo Xuan back first.
"
Because Luo Tiezhu knew about Dai Hongmei and understood that she was unwilling to show her face in the storage room.
Dai Hongmei, on the other hand, replied calmly and generously: "Uncle Luo, what are you talking about? This is something I did. Is there any trouble? You go ahead and do your work. I'll go to the storage room right now."
With that said, Dai Hongmei turned around and walked out of the small bamboo forest.
Not long after.
Mrs. Wang squirmed back home. After asking about the situation, Ms. Wang curled her lips and said: "How can children in the countryside be so delicate? Who doesn't grow up stumbling? Just lie down for a while and it will be fine."
They are still busy in the storage room! If you are delayed, your work points will be deducted."
Luo Tiezhu stretched out his hand towards Mr. Wang, "Then give me a few cents."
Wang was stunned, turned around and asked, "What do you want money for?"
"I'll go to the clinic and buy some medicine for Luo Xuan."
Luo Tiezhu replied: "I heard from Teacher Wang that a certain kind of medicine arrived in the clinic, which is the best for treating headaches."
There is a health room in the brigade.
Nowadays, doctors in clinics are not called "barefoot doctors", but hygienists.
The term "barefoot doctor" would not appear for a few years.
The medical skills of these health workers are very poor. They have received simple training from the township people's hospital, which means they know a little bit about medical science and can give some vaccinations.
Members of the production team habitually refer to health workers, village teachers, and township epidemic prevention workers as "teachers."
"Buy shit!"
Ms. Wang turned away and left, "I've heard of that medicine too. It's very expensive, costing 1 dime a bag. My mother often has headaches, so she's reluctant to buy it! You're really nice to your mother-in-law."
Come back and see."
After saying that, Wang Shili ignored Luo Tiezhu, waved his hands and walked out the door.
Luo Tiezhu looked at Wang's back, then looked at Luo Xuan, who was lying on the bed, squinting his eyes and saying nothing, and sighed slightly.
He lowered his head and thought for a while.
Luo Tiezhu got up and returned to his bedroom, taking out a clay pot from the cabinet.
He reached out and took out three eggs, then left the main room and walked straight to the health room of the brigade headquarters.
Not long after, Luo Tiezhu, who was sweating profusely, returned home, walked straight to Luo Xuan's bed, stretched out his hand and shook Luo Xuan awake.
Then he handed the small bag of medicine to Luo Xuan, "Take it, I'll get some water."
Since the death of his first wife Zhao Mei, Luo Tiezhu has always cherished words like gold in front of Luo Xuan and never said one more word.
Luo Xuan slowly opened his eyes, glanced at Luo Tiezhu, and then lowered his head to look carefully at the bag of medicines.
This bag of medicine was wrapped in paper, and on it was a picture of a face full of pain, covering his head.
Also printed were four simple characters in block letters: Phenacetin.
After seeing the content clearly, Luo Xuan shook his head: "I won't eat it."
Phenacetin is actually the early name of "headache powder".
This medicine began to be produced on a large scale as early as the 1940s, and was later renamed "Headache Powder".
Luo Tiezhu, who did not understand pathology and pharmacology, only thought that Luo Xuan's head hurt and that taking this medicine would definitely make him better.
But Luo Xuan knew that his headache was not due to any illness, but because his head was hit too hard by the bucket.
Headache powder has strong side effects, not only can it damage the liver, but it is also addictive.
My head is fine, there is no need to eat it.
"Don't be stubborn."
Luo Tiezhu put the medicine into Luo Xuan's hand, then turned around to pour water for Luo Xuan.
"I don't take medicine."
Luo Xuan struggled to get up, "I just need to go out for a walk. This medicine can't cure my stomachache."
Luo Xuan is the only scholar in the family, and he is also a member of the production team, so he is not a common "high school student".
Therefore, Luo Tiezhu still believed what Luo Xuan said.
Moreover, Luo Tiezhu, who had always been dull, had never had the habit of asking questions, let alone the tenderness to greet his children.
Hearing Luo Xuan's firm words, Luo Tiezhu paused slightly, then turned around, picked up the bag of phenacetin, and left the bedroom alone.
Hearing that Luo Tiezhu had gone back to the bedroom, Luo Xuan rubbed the green bump on his head, feeling resentful in his heart.
Luo Xuan heard every word of the previous conversation between Luo Tiezhu and Wang.
Although he was dizzy, he did not faint. Luo Xuan could clearly hear everything they said and did.
Once this person is broken inside, it will be difficult to save him.
Mr. Wang...is out of control.
Luo Xuan picked up the fish basket and fishing hook from under the eaves, and walked towards the well.
I have a weak foundation, so I have to seize the time to make money to improve my living environment.
Going down to the well, Luo Xuan put the fishing hook into the crack between the rocks and began to concentrate on fishing for eels.
However, as one learns from every experience, Luo Xuan would still look up at the mouth of the well from time to time, or prick up his ears to listen to what was going on around him.
Otherwise, if another flying bucket comes from outside, I can't guarantee whether that heavy bucket will kill me.
After changing several stone cracks, Luo Xuan finally felt the abnormality coming from the other end of the fishing hook.
The eel finally bit the hook!
Luo Xuan calmed down and carefully felt the touch from the fishing hook.
When he felt the fishhook being pulled into the crevice of the stone with a strong force, Luo Xuan grabbed the fishhook suddenly and pulled it out with all his strength!
The eel bites the hook and pulls it in, then pulls it out quickly. In the blink of an eye, the sharp hook in the eel's mouth is suddenly hooked into the upper jaw of the eel, which makes the eel think it is delicious.
Fish, suddenly hurt!
The eel couldn't bear the pain and retreated violently into the cave.
Luo Xuan, on the other hand, pushed on the wall of the well with his feet, held the fishing hook with both hands and pulled it out with all his strength!
A little bit, and a little bit more.
After all, the eel is not as strong as Luo Xuan. The fishing hook made of bicycle spokes is so strong that the eel cannot break it even though it tries its best.
A few minutes later, a big eel with a blue-gray light all over its body was finally pulled out of the stone crevice by Luo Xuan.
Eels are big and strong.
The big eel that was pulled out of the cave kept turning and twisting like a small snake.
Luo Xuan was afraid that he would lose it again, so he quickly stuffed the eel and the fishing hook into the bamboo basket. Then he wiped the sweat from his forehead and felt completely relieved.
