Zhao Fengqiao married into the Liaoshan Brigade, where most people had the surname Zhang.
Daqing's real name is Zhang Daqing.
The Liaoshan Brigade is at least forty or fifty kilometers away from them.
If Jiang Mengxue rode her bike by herself, she might not be able to reach the destination, as she would be exhausted halfway.
So he took the lamb directly to the commune to take the bus.
Of course, the commune’s car would not pass through every brigade, but they could get off at the place closest to Liaoshan Brigade and then ride their bikes there.
This time, I sent the lamb back with a large bag of medicine, which was enough for him to take once every three days for a month.
In fact, it’s okay not to drink during this period, it won’t have any effect on his body.
But in order to prevent Zhao Fengqiao and the others from worrying, he should continue to take the medicine. Some of the herbs are grown in the space with spiritual spring water, which will also be of great help to his physical recovery.
Jiang Mengxue was not very familiar with this route, and Xiaoyang had only been away from home a few times since she was a child, so she couldn't give her directions.
The two could only walk along the approximate route, asking people if they met them on the way. After stumbling and bumping around for a while, they finally found the way.
When the lamb arrived at the brigade, he finally returned to a familiar place.
Sitting in the back, giving voice instructions to Jiang Mengxue, they soon arrived at the gate of Zhang's courtyard.
The Zhang family’s house is not small, with three main rooms in the middle, two side rooms on the sides, and another row of two rooms in the back.
In fact, these houses were built one after another after the later sons got married.
If a large family comes to winter, they will still sleep together to save firewood.
So at this moment, all the Zhang family members gathered in the three rooms of the main house.
Xiaoyang ran back home to inform them, and Jiang Mengxue followed behind with things in her hands.
Zhao Fengqiao and Zhao Dingxiang were the first to come out.
Jiang Mengxue and the others did not notify us in advance before coming, so they were really scared by her sudden return.
"Xiaoxue, why are you here today? Is there something wrong with Xiaoyang?"
Ever since they left the lamb for medical treatment, they have been worried.
However, they did not receive any news from Jiang Mengxue, and they did not dare to go to pick up the lamb, for fear of delaying their treatment.
We were planning to go and pick up the lamb to celebrate the New Year these days, but we didn't expect them to leave first.
Jiang Mengxue handed the medicine in her hand to Zhao Fengqiao and said, "Don't worry, Auntie, Xiaoyang is much better now.
It's already the twelfth lunar month, and the little lamb is still thinking about going home. I'll send him back for a while, and then we can go after the Chinese New Year.
The lamb is recovering very well and will be fully recovered in a month or two. One packet of medicine can be boiled every three days, which is enough for a month."
"Really? The lamb can really get better? That's great, that's great."
Zhao Dingxiang was so happy that she held the lamb in her arms and was reluctant to let go for a moment.
Jiang Mengxue hasn't seen her cousins for many years, and has hardly ever seen her cousin's wife and nephews and nieces.
Now facing so many people, I can only awkwardly get to know and greet them one by one.
"Xiaoxue, come inside first. Stay home for dinner today. Auntie will make you something delicious."
Zhao Fengqiao wanted to pull people into the house and asked her daughters-in-law to go to the kitchen to prepare dinner.
Since there was nothing good prepared at home, she really couldn't bear to kill the old hen at home.
My niece has done such a big favor for the family, and it is not easy for her to come home, so we have to treat her with all the good things.
However, Jiang Mengxue came out today for something important and didn't want to stay at her aunt's house for long.
Especially when I saw my cousin’s wife enter the chicken coop and start catching chickens, and they were old hens.
Old hens are known as chicken butt banks in rural areas.
The whole family depends on buying eggs for their daily necessities throughout the year.
So how could Jiang Mengxue stay to eat chicken? She quickly refused.
"Aunt, I really can't today. I have to go to the city and really don't have time to stay for dinner. I will definitely come next time when I am free."
Zhao Fengqiao was stunned and felt a little embarrassed.
She naturally wanted to treat her niece well, but if her niece really had something to do, she couldn't force her to stay.
"Xiaoxue, are you really worried? You're not trying to frame me, are you? My aunt's family isn't so poor that they can't afford to eat, so don't be so polite to me."
"No, I really have something to do. Peking University and Tsinghua University send me letters every month. I just happened to be going to the city, so I had to pick up the letters."
Zhao Fengqiao then gave up, as she was afraid of delaying Jiang Mengxue's work, so she didn't stop him.
"Wait a minute, then. The lamb has lived in your house for the past two months and no rations have been delivered to you. So now is a good time for you to take it back."
After saying that, he turned around and asked Daqing to go back to the house to get food.
But they had already prepared it, thinking that they could take it with them when they went to the Leaping Team one day.
The lamb needs more than 20 kilograms of food in a month, which is really a lot to carry.
I wanted to refuse it, but I can take it next time.
But Zhao Fengqiao refused to do so. If Jiang Mengxue didn't take it this time, she planned to ask Daqing to send it over in two days.
In order to avoid having her cousin Daqing make another trip, Jiang Mengxue decided to take the child with her own hands.
She didn't stay at Zhang's house for long. After a brief chat with her aunt, she was ready to leave.
I don’t even know any of my cousins’ wives, so there’s nothing much to talk about.
At first, Jiang Mengxue was quite curious as to why the whole family was still living together. Her aunt had previously said that the family was planning to separate and live separately.
Zhao Fengqiao also talked about this and felt quite touched.
Ever since they came back from the Leaping Brigade, the family has talked about splitting up the family again.
But he was rejected by his sons.
The daughters-in-law all said that they were not in a hurry to divide the family. Even if the lamb was sick and needed treatment, it was the responsibility of the whole family, and they could not just give up now.
They can split up at any time, but if they do it now, how will others view them?
No one says anything when things are going well, so could it be that they will abandon my eldest brother and his family when things get tough?
Anyway, they don't agree to divide the family now. Even if they really want to divide it, they have to wait until Xiaoyang recovers from his illness.
After this incident, the relationship between the family members became better.
Jiang Mengxue said goodbye to her sister-in-law's house and rode her bike to the county town.
Because we were delayed in Liaoshan Brigade for a while, it was already afternoon when we arrived at the county town.
Even the Chinese state-owned restaurants didn't open during meal times, so we could only find a secluded place to eat something.
This time I was able to find Liu Tianqi's house easily.
However, Liu Tianqi was still out and had not returned yet, so Grandma Liu was the only one at home.
Because she didn't need to meet Wang Qiang and his group today, Jiang Mengxue didn't put on any makeup, but just wrapped herself tightly with a scarf.
Grandma Liu recognized her at a glance and immediately let her into the yard.
"Tianqi said you might come over around the 20th day of the twelfth lunar month, so he told me not to go out and wait at home for a few days. I didn't expect you to come over today.
You sit at home for a while, I'll go find Tianqi, he's not far away, I'll be back soon."
After saying that, without waiting for Jiang Mengxue's reaction, he closed the gate and left.
