"I have to go. My old friend is not young anymore. It would be a shame if I saw him less and less!" Li Dashan said as he suddenly sat up from the kang, then turned over and got off the kang. Only then did he realize that his shoes were not under the kang.
"Mancang, where are my shoes?"
At this time, Li Mancang and his wife were already stunned by the scene before them. They could never imagine that the patient, who looked terminally ill yesterday, was able to get out of bed today?
Xu Jianguo saw the two men standing there in a daze without reacting, so he reminded them, "Uncle Mancang, Grandpa Dashan is calling you!"
Li Mancang finally came to his senses and asked, "Ah? Uncle, what did you say?"
"Where are my shoes? Help me find them quickly. I need to go see my old friend."
"Okay, I'll get it for you now."
After Li Mancang agreed, he ran out. After a while, he came back from outside carrying a pair of old-fashioned cloth shoes.
"Yanzi brushed these before and placed them on the windowsill. Come, try them and see if they have shrunk!" Li Mancang said, and then he wanted to go forward to help him put on his shoes.
Unexpectedly, the old man took the shoes and said, "I can move now, do it yourself!"
"Haha, okay, wear it yourself!"
After putting on his shoes, the old man stood up without any hesitation and started walking around the room. Seeing his strong and powerful steps with a strong veteran atmosphere, smiles appeared on everyone's faces.
At this time, Li Dashan looked no different from an ordinary person, but because he had been bedridden for more than a year, he was much thinner than before and still looked a little weak.
Only Xu Jianguo knew that this situation was only temporary. After all, this was only the first day of treatment. Even if the effect was good, it would not be cured so quickly. The reason why the old man was in this state now had a lot to do with the bowl of medicine he drank before. After all, the medicinal effects of medicinal materials that were more than a hundred years old plus the space well water were no joke.
"Jianguo, you're awesome!" Li Dashan walked around the room twice and gave him a thumbs up.
"Take it easy, old man. Your current condition is all because of that bowl of medicine. If you go to see Old Yellow Ox, you'd better hurry up, otherwise, once the effect of the medicine wears off, you will be weak again."
"Ah? Do I have to go back and lie on the kang?" The old man's face fell immediately when he heard it.
"Of course, this is only the first day. I'm not a god, so it won't happen that quickly. But I promise you that in a week, you'll be back to your old self. Then you can take your old friend around the village."
"Hahaha, that's good, that's good. As long as you don't make me lie down again, anything is fine!"
After Li Dashan finished speaking, he walked towards the yard. Before leaving the house, he took Funniu and the other two girls with him. Seeing this, Li Mancang hurriedly followed him.
Xu Jianguo did not follow. He asked Zhang Meijuan and Wen Sitian, who was holding the child, to sit down, and he took the enamel basin on the ground, the bloody cotton cloth, and the large porcelain bowl on the kang table to the main room.
Zhang Meijuan originally wanted to help clean up, but when she saw Wen Wen in Wen Sitian's arms, she immediately gave up the idea of working and concentrated on teasing the little guy, laughing from time to time.
Soon, it was noon. After all, it was already past ten o'clock when Xu Jianguo and his family went out. Li Dashan had already led Funniu and the others back to the house. Although the three girls grew up in the countryside, they had never fed cows. There were not as many large livestock in the village in this era as in later generations, so the three of them were still chattering after just experiencing it.
At this time, Zhang Meijuan and Wen Sitian had already gone to the main room and started preparing lunch, while Xu Jianguo, Li Mancang and Li Xin sat on the kang with Li Dashan and chatted.
Li Dashan crossed his legs and leaned against the pile of quilts. He laid the bed steadily and placed a small mattress on his legs. The old man and the young boy would interact with each other from time to time. The little guy was very considerate and did not cry or make a fuss. He would often make the old man laugh.
After a while, Wang Erni also came in from outside holding her and Li Xin's child, and Xiao Shitou.
After entering the house, Wang Erni handed the child to Li Xin, and she ran to the main room to help her mother-in-law and Wen Sitian cook, while Shi Tou naturally mingled with the three girls.
Lunch was simple, but Xu Jianguo felt very satisfied after eating it. It was the taste of home. No matter how long he had been away, he would always miss this familiar taste.
After lunch, the old man showed a bit of tiredness. Seeing this, Xu Jianguo asked to leave and made an appointment to come over in the evening to make medicine for him.
Li Mancang's family did not go home because they had to take care of the old man. They just asked Xu Jianguo to bring the family over for dinner in the evening.
After Xu Jianguo agreed, he left.
After the family returned home, they took a nap together. When they woke up, it was already past two o'clock in the afternoon.
Xu Jianguo thought about it and decided to take the three girls into the mountains for a walk. When Funiu heard this, she jumped up happily.
Wen Sitian did not go with them because she had to take care of Wenwen. Xiao Hei also seemed to have no interest in going into the mountains. He preferred to stay by the side of his mistress and little master.
Since Xu Jianguo's old house was located on the edge of the village and halfway up the mountain, the four brothers and sisters went straight into the woods after leaving the yard.
There is no need to say much about Xu Jianguo's abilities. The three girls have also taken gene-enhancing drugs. Even though Funiu and Erya took primary drugs, their physical fitness has already surpassed that of normal adults by many times. Therefore, they did not feel tired at all when walking on this mountain road.
In addition, Xu Jianguo also possesses the Eyes of Time and Space, which allows him to detect dangers hidden in the woods in advance. Therefore, he would not worry even if the three girls ran ahead of him.
The four of them walked and stopped along the way, and soon arrived near the waterfall lake where Xu Jianguo captured the Japanese spies.
It was the season of clear and crisp autumn weather. A large patch of unknown wild flowers bloomed on a meadow by the lake, which was very beautiful. The three girls rushed over immediately upon seeing it.
Xu Jianguo looked at their innocent appearance among the flowers, and a smile appeared involuntarily on the corner of his mouth. He quietly took out the camera from the space and recorded their appearance at this moment.
