70s Xiao Que Xing

Chapter 404 Buying Medicinal Wine

"Retribution for what? What do you mean?" Xie Xiaonian asked puzzled.

"You don't know, the nephews, nieces and daughters-in-law of the third grandma, as well as her grandnephews and grandnephews and daughters-in-law, after the burial of the third grandma, for some reason, all of them can't eat or work hard. The big man is laborious, and now he can't even lift the bucket of water, and his complexion is getting worse and worse, especially lacking energy, as if his soul has been pumped out. The more he bullied the third grandma before, the more he took advantage of it , the more serious the disease is." Li Zhenzhu said gloatingly.

"It might be some kind of illness."

Xie Xiaonian probably already knew what was going on, but she still pretended not to know.

"I don't know. They thought it was some kind of illness before. They asked the barefoot doctor in the brigade to see it the day before yesterday, but the barefoot doctor's level is limited, so they couldn't tell what the illness was. Yesterday they went to the commune hospital again. But even the doctors in the commune hospital don’t look down on them, and they don’t know what kind of disease they have!” Li Zhenzhu continued.

"What does that have to do with retribution or non-retribution? You can't talk nonsense about this kind of feudal superstition."

Xie Xiaonian was afraid that Pearl would go out and talk nonsense, so she threatened her.

"I'm just discussing with you, I'm sure I won't talk about it when I go out." Pearl said tactfully.

Then, Li Zhenzhu said in a softer voice: "These are people in the village discussing in private, saying that it is because they did not abide by the agreement with the village. , I always think about taking advantage of the third grandma, and forget it. After the third grandma went, she didn't guard the spirit of the third grandma. She only thought about the things left by the third grandma. There are gods in the sky. God can't stand it anymore, so let them retribution."

"Probably not, it's too mysterious." Xie Xiaonian said pretending to be surprised.

"Why not, I think it must be, think about it, they were fine before, they were very healthy, and how many people in the village looked as good as them. But since the third grandma was buried, they started This is the case, and the more unfilial the situation is, the more serious the situation is, even the doctors in the commune hospital say that they are not sick, this is not punished by God, what else can it be?" Pearl said affirmatively.

"Didn't the doctor think that they were poisoned by some flowers and plants on the way to the cemetery?" Xie Xiaonian inquired.

"The barefoot doctor in the team also speculated like this at the beginning, but there is no poisonous thing on the road to the third grandma's cemetery. It is a road that people in the village often pass, and the people who went to the cemetery that day were not There are many, and it's not just their family members. Why are only the adults in their family sick, and everyone else is fine. Adding these things together, it can only be explained by retribution " Pearl said with certainty.

"That's right, you see I went too, but nothing happened, maybe they really suffered some kind of retribution." Xie Xiaonian nodded in agreement.

Although the gossiping woman in the village is very annoying, sometimes it still has some effect, just like this time, not only did she perfectly cover up the truth of her poisoning, but the life of those few families in the village will not be easy. .

After that, Xie Xiaonian didn't discuss this matter with Pearl again, as long as those people were punished as they should, she would be relieved.

"Why isn't Yifan at home? You have a big belly, how dangerous it is to be at home by yourself." Xie Xiaonian asked seeing that he had never seen Liu Yifan since entering the door.

"It's okay, I'm only six months old, and I'm still too early to give birth. Yifan and his team went hunting in the back mountain yesterday." Pearl rubbed her belly and said with a smile.

"Hunting? Our team has started hunting now? Are you not afraid of encountering wolves?" Xie Xiaonian asked suspiciously.

"Yes, at the beginning of this year, so many of our brigades are relying on the same mountain range, and other brigades go up to the mountains every year to hunt, and nothing has happened. In addition, our brigade uses food every year to pay for it. Compared with other villages, they are getting poorer and poorer. So this year, the brigade decided to send a male laborer from each family to go hunting in the mountains together, and a male laborer from the production team in other brigades. If you dare to go up the mountain, our entire brigade will go up the mountain together, I don’t believe it’s not as good as them.”

"Then the people in the village are not afraid?"

After so many years, people in the village are very afraid of going up the mountain, for fear that they will lose their lives if they are not careful.

"Of course I'm scared, but it's been so many years since the wolves happened. You've only heard wolves howling once or twice in these years, and you haven't seen any wolves go down the mountain to harm others. Everyone thinks that the wolves on the mountain may be They went deep into the mountains. So most of the people in the village wanted to go to the outskirts of the mountains to see first. If there was no danger, they would go deeper in the future. It was better than looking at other brigades. If there is no meat, it is better to share less food. Moreover, the brigade invited two hunters from other villages and brought a few guns to lead the battle, so everyone bravely followed up the mountain."

Thinking of the people in the village being so scared, Pearl felt a little funny. They used to go up the mountain with Xiao Nian, and the mountain was not as scary as the villagers imagined.

As long as you are careful, there are still many receipts.

Although there were indeed wolves on the mountain, but considering that there were guns and hunters around, and the other brigades hadn't encountered much danger, Xie Xiaonian didn't say anything else, saving Zhenzhu from fear and worry.

Pearl's belly is getting bigger, at noon, Xie Xiaonian just let Pearl sit and light the fire, and she is fully responsible for the cooking.

"Xiao Nian, the food you cook is still delicious!" Zhu Zhen sighed while holding the chicken nuggets on the table.

"If it's delicious, you can eat more, and I'll make it for you in the future!" Xie Xiaonian said with a smile seeing Pearl's gluttonous appearance.

"Yeah, I knew Xiao Nian you were the best!" Pearl nodded vigorously and said.

Even though she is pregnant with children now, she is still so cute.

After eating, Xie Xiaonian chatted with Pearl for a while, then pushed the bicycle and prepared to go home.

But when she was not far from Zhuzhu's house, she ran into people from the third grandma's nephew's family.

"Xiao Nian, do you still have the medicine wine you gave me for my third aunt? Can you give us a few jars too?" Xie Daniu, the eldest nephew of the third aunt, said directly.

They drank the medicinal wine that Xiao Nian sent to the third grandmother before, and they felt energetic and lively, as if they were getting younger as they lived.

Now they couldn't find out the cause of the disease in the commune's hospital, and when they had nowhere to go, they thought of Xiao Nian's medicinal wine and planned to serve Xiao Nian a few jars.

I believe that for the sake of the third grandma, Xiao Nian will definitely give it to them, but it's a pity that they overestimated their own weight.

"Yes, but my medicinal wine is not given to people casually. It costs 100 yuan a catty, and there is no bargaining." Xie Xiaonian said directly.

Even if they really pay for it, Xie Xiaonian will only give them ordinary medicinal wine mixed with space water, they don't even think about it.

I don't have such a broad mind yet, repaying evil with virtue.

"Why don't you go grab it!" The third grandma's eldest nephew and daughter-in-law said sharply when she heard that it was asking for 100 yuan a catty.

Their family worked hard to earn work points for a year, but they might not be able to save 100 yuan.

"If you think it's too expensive, you don't have to buy it. I didn't force you to buy it. And I heard that you have a strange disease recently. My medicinal wine is only used to strengthen your body, not to cure the disease. You have to do something about it." It's clear, don't spend money to buy medicinal wine, and if you don't get better, then blame me." Xie Xiaonian said directly.

"Xiao Nian, how can we have 100 yuan in our family? My third aunt was so kind to you before she was alive. Can you give us a few jars for her sake? Let us try it first. If it works, we will definitely not Your money is missing." The shrewd second daughter-in-law said.

"I haven't heard of any medical package in the past, and I just said that my medicinal wine can't cure the disease. Also, you still have the face to mention the third grandma to me. How did you treat the third grandma? But it's clear, originally I was planning to sell you medicinal wine, but since you mentioned the third grandma, I'm sorry, I won't sell it for any money."

After finishing speaking, Xie Xiaonian pushed the bicycle and prepared to leave directly.

"Hmph, if you don't give us medicinal liquor, we'll report you for making money from selling medicinal liquor." The second daughter-in-law threatened immediately when she saw that she couldn't get any benefits.

"You can report it as you please. I haven't heard of buying medicinal wine for free. Let alone me, even if you go to the hospital in the commune, I didn't say that you will get medical treatment for free. And in my medicinal wine The bubbles are all good things, and there are secret recipes, which are totally worth the price, and I'm not afraid of your reports." Xie Xiaonian said with a sneer.

"Xiao Nian, don't be angry, my daughter-in-law can't speak, we folks in the village, can you sell it to us at a lower price?"

The third grandma's second nephew saw that Xiao Nian was soft and hard, and some blamed them for treating the third grandma badly, so he hurriedly used the folks in the village as an example.

"I said I won't sell it, no matter how much money I have, so you should stop thinking about it."

Xie Xiaonian didn't bother to chat with them, and just rode away on the bike.

Originally, Xie Xiaonian wanted to scam them, but now she is annoyed when she sees them, and she is lazy to deal with them.

I can be regarded as revenge for the third grandma, and I will treat it as if I don't know each other when we meet in the future.

Seeing that Xie Xiaonian made up his mind not to sell to them, the group of people could only walk home slowly with their heads downcast and their footsteps frivolous.

Although they just can't eat and have no energy, the fear of the unknown is what makes them most afraid and uneasy.
