Chapter 423 Let them visit their relatives in the army
"Is there anything else we can do for the piles?" asked Gu Xiaoxi.
"If Zhuozi knew that his parents' illness could be cured, he would be relieved."
The two talked and returned to Zhuozi's house.
Mr. Pan's legs have gotten much better today. Because he wanted to bury the remains, he got up early in the morning and sat in a wheelchair.
Gu Xiaoxi went to check on Zhuangzi's mother and found that she was awake, but her eyes were red and swollen, obviously from crying.
Just when she didn't know what to say, Zhuizi's mother grabbed her hand.
"My dear, you must be the head of the regiment who had his wife that Zhuozi mentioned in his letter, the girl he called sister-in-law!"
Gu Xiaoxi was stunned for a moment, "Did Qiaozi tell you about me?"
Zhuozi's mother nodded. "I am illiterate, but my younger brother Zhuozi can read. Every time Zhuozi wrote a letter, I would ask him to read it several times. Since the second half of last year, he would mention his deputy regiment commander and sister-in-law in every letter, saying that you are good people and that you asked him to send the quilt back home, as well as food..."
"Qiaozi also said that he often ate at your house and ate a lot of delicious food that he had never eaten before..."
As Chuanzi's mother spoke, tears began to fall again.
"I had a dream a few days ago. In my dream, the pile disappeared. I told the old man about it, but he didn't believe me..."
Gu Xiaoxi was completely shocked.
How could Zhuizi's mother have had such a dream?
Is this what they mean by the connection between mother and child?
So that's why she was in such a bad condition when they saw her yesterday?
"Qiaozi is the most filial son. Please take care of yourself."
Gu Xiaoxi was not very good at comforting people, so she fetched some medicine, prepared some liquid medicine, and gave her another infusion.
Lu Jiansen also came over and sat with him for a while, then went back to busy himself with the burial of the pile.
In order to prevent Chuangzi's mother from being too sad, Gu Xiaoxi lit a stick of soothing incense in the room to calm her mood.
By the time the water was finished hanging, the mother who worked on the pile had fallen asleep.
Because everyone in the family had gone up the mountain, Gu Xiaoxi went to tidy up the kitchen.
The cupboard at home was a bit broken and was missing a door, and the bowls we used for eating had a lot of chips on them.
Gu Xiaoxi took a deep breath, replaced the worn-out cupboard, used the system's all-purpose packaging machine to make two new cabinets, and neatly placed all the rice, flour, oil and grain that he had brought with him into the cabinets.
Then she cleaned the entire kitchen, threw all the worn-out and broken bowls and pans into the junk store, and took out a new set from the new product showroom.
She didn't touch anything else, but instead started a fire, cooked a chicken, and slowly cooked the chicken soup.
Seeing that no one had returned yet, she took out some wood and boards and sat in the yard to do carpentry work.
This time, she directly used the energy cutting pen.
After several attempts, she found that this energy cutting pen was much more useful than a cutting machine or a carving knife.
After a while, there were a lot of polished wood at her feet.
When Lu Jiansen and his friends came back from the mountain, there was already a pile of messy-looking wood in the yard.
Sun Dongming asked curiously, "What are you doing, sister-in-law?"
"I found some wood and made some furniture."
As she spoke, she swept away the sawdust on the ground, and seemingly randomly picked up several pieces of wood of different shapes and began to assemble them.
At first, Li Kun and Sun Dongming didn't notice anything, but five minutes later, their expressions were stunned.
Because these long and short pieces of wood are combined together to form an exquisite washbasin rack without using a single nail.
Sun Dongming put a basin on it to try it out and found it was quite sturdy.
Gu Xiaoxi picked up the wooden board on the ground and started knocking on it. Soon, six chairs and a round table appeared on the ground.
Sun Dongming was really convinced this time!
Even when things were clearly on the ground, he thought it was messy and not noticeable at all.
Gu Xiaoxi took out a small can of environmentally friendly varnish from his suitcase and brushed the tables, chairs and two cabinets in the kitchen.
It was windy outside, and Gu Xiaoxi also used the wind-drying technique, so the varnish on the tables and chairs dried quickly.
She didn't need to say anything else. Li Kun and Sun Dongming immediately moved out the broken square table in the main room, which had several patches on it made of wooden boards, and replaced it with a new one.
Pan Tiemu felt very complicated when he saw the changes at home.
The village chief and Pan's father came back a little later. When they saw the clean and tidy kitchen, they were stunned for a while.
Gu Xiaoxi washed his hands and went to take a look at the chicken soup he had made.
Lu Jiansen also went into the kitchen and helped cook.
"Sister-in-law, I see that Qiaozi's father's leg has gotten much better. How long will it take for his leg to heal?" Li Kun also came over to help wash the vegetables and asked in a low voice.
"It will take seven to ten days to recover! The mother of the pile has recovered well, so it can be cured."
Li Kun breathed a sigh of relief and felt much more at ease.
Gu Xiaoxi was silent for a while before saying, "Li Kun, is there anyone sick in your or Sun Dongming's family? If so, get treatment early. If it's hard to treat locally, let them visit their relatives in the army and I'll take a look at them."
Li Kun said gratefully, "Thank you, sister-in-law. But everyone in my family is in good health."
Sun Dongming hesitated for a moment before saying, "Sister-in-law, my sister has been married for five years and has no children. Can this be cured?"
Gu Xiaoxi blinked his eyes. "That depends on the specific situation. I'm not very good at treating this, but I can take the pulse to understand the physical condition."
The village chief, who was standing at the door of the kitchen and wanted to help but didn't know how, suddenly said, "Doctor Gu, it's not easy for the villagers in our village to see a doctor. Some people didn't come to see a doctor last night, and I want to ask you if you can organize another medical treatment activity."
Gu Xiaoxi turned around and looked at the village chief. "Sure. Just ask them to come over this afternoon."
"Then I'll go tell the villagers." The village chief immediately went to inform everyone of the good news.
After lunch, Li Kun and Sun Dongming moved out the new set of tables and chairs to make it easier for Gu Xiaoxi to treat the villagers.
While Gu Xiaoxi was busy, Lu Jiansen took Li Kun and Sun Dongming into the mountains.
Gu Xiaoxi never charged any patient for her services. When asked about it, she only said that she hoped they would take better care of Zhuangzi's parents in the future.
When Zhuanzi's mother heard these words in the room, she couldn't help but shed tears.
Pan Tiemu whispered to comfort her: "Mom, my brother is gone, but you still have me. When I get married and have children, I will let your grandson join the army and serve the motherland, and become a useful person like my brother and Commander Lu."
"If you were a granddaughter, we would train her well and let her become an excellent person like a military doctor..."
Zhuanzi's mother raised her tears and nodded, "Then you should find a good wife to marry as soon as possible."
"Yes. I always listen to my mother."
Outside the door, Pan's father was also wiping his tears.
His son is great!
