Ever since Zeng Xubai found Liu Jing, Liu Jing really felt that she had become a winner in life. She had everything she needed, and she could eat and sleep whenever she wanted.
Even time seems to pass much faster than before. In the blink of an eye, it is New Year's Eve. There is no signal, no Spring Festival Gala, and no firecrackers. However, you can still feel the strong New Year atmosphere from the Spring Festival couplets posted on the doors of every household, the children wearing new clothes, and the uncontrollable smiles on the faces of the villagers.
Only during the Chinese New Year would they be so happy and willing to dress their children in new clothes and put some homemade snacks in their pockets.
Although it is not as delicious as what you buy outside, for the children in the village, it is the most delicious thing they have ever eaten.
At night, the villagers rarely go out, except for those who want to pay New Year's greetings to their elders.
Zeng Xubai took out a bottle of wine, a bag of tea, a roasted chicken, some fish skin, peanuts, small twisted dough sticks, rice crusts and other things, all packed into a big bag, and took Liu Liang to pay New Year's greetings to Aunt Zhou and Third Uncle. These were all big gifts, and Third Uncle was so happy that the more he looked at them, the happier he became. As soon as he saw people from afar, he would grin with joy.
Aunt Zhou originally wanted to invite Liu Liang to her house for dinner. She made dumplings and prepared several other dishes, but Liu Liang refused because they had already prepared everything at home.
The most important thing is that the big yellow dog is still at home and has not eaten yet. If they go back late, the dog will probably bark at them all night long, as if they are torturing the dog.
After the two came back, they had a very sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner. Even the big yellow dog got several meat bones.
This year can be said to be the most relaxing one for Liu Jing. She doesn't have to worry about grades, work, or being on duty. She can sleep whenever she wants and wake up whenever she wants. They don't have many relatives here, so they don't have to go out in the snow and walk on mountain roads.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Liu Jing and Zeng Xubai had already prepared a table full of food. There was almost everything on the table, and there were only the two of them eating. Liu Jing had been looking forward to it for a long time and was just waiting to eat.
As a result, she had just picked up the chopsticks and had not yet picked up a piece of food to eat when the door outside started to slam.
Liu Liang quickly picked up the bowl and put it into her mouth desperately. She knew that if she didn't eat it now, she might not be able to eat it later. Even if she did, it would not be the same food anymore.
Zeng Xubai put down his chopsticks, walked to the door, opened it, and saw a villager standing anxiously at the door. He said that his child had a severe stomachache, so he wanted to ask Liu Jing to come over and take a look.
When Zeng Xubai came back, Liu Jing had already prepared the medicine box.
"We'll come back to eat later."
He touched the top of Liu Jing's head and said, "Saving people is the most important thing."
Liu Liang nodded, but she felt it was a pity to leave so much food on the table as she hadn’t eaten enough.
Zeng Xubai did not clear the table, but covered the dishes on the table with plates, and the two of them went out. The villagers outside were relieved to see Liu Jing coming out. He felt very sorry for calling him out on the first day of the new year, but there was nothing he could do because Liu Jing was the only doctor in the village.
He could only ask Liu Liang for help.
When Liu Liang arrived, the child was still holding his stomach, crying and making a fuss, which made Liu Liang think that he had appendicitis. However, after a check-up, it was found that it was not appendicitis.
Just because I ate too much.
The people in Murakami don't have much good food to eat all year round, but they attach great importance to the New Year. They save all the good things for the New Year. Adults are fine and are somewhat restrained, but children are not like that. If they have some good food, they want to stuff it into their stomachs. If they stuff too much, their stomachs can't take it.
Liu Liang prescribed some stomach-strengthening and digestion-promoting tablets, and the child recovered quickly after taking them.
“There are a lot of delicious foods.”
Liu Jing touched the child's head and said, "You eat so much in one meal that your stomach is full. If you have something delicious later, how will you eat it? There will be no room in your stomach, right?"
The child nodded vigorously, and he would definitely save some space in his stomach for delicious food in the future.
After curing the child, Liu Liang picked up her medicine box and prepared to go back. Fortunately, it was nothing serious. If the child had really fallen ill during the Chinese New Year, it would have been really upsetting.
Just came over.
Liu Liang opened the medicine box and took out some medicine.
This place is not far from Goudan’s house, let’s go over and take a look.
The man in Goudan's family went out to work, leaving behind an old man, a woman, and a child. Life in the village was very difficult, and it was also difficult for Goudan's mother, a woman, as she had to take care of the old and the young, which was not easy.
Liu Liang had met Goudan's mother a few times and she was a nice woman.
When they arrived at Goudan's house, Liu Jing knocked on the door.
Not long after, Goudan's mother came to open the door. When she saw it was Liu Liang, she was stunned for a long time.
"Doctor Liu, why are you here?"
"The kid next door is sick, so I came out to see him and happened to pass by your house."
"You come in first."
Goudan's mother quickly made way and let Liu Jing into the house, wondering what else the family had to entertain the guests.
"No."
Liu Jing knew that Goudan’s mother’s family was not well off, so it was impossible for her to come over for dinner. If they did, the family would probably not have a good New Year.
"My husband brought some food from the foot of the mountain. Take it and feed it to Goudan."
She stuffed the thing in her hand into Goudan's mother's arms.
It contained five kilograms of rice, some oil, some snacks like fish skin and peanuts, and a portion of chicken feet, all of which were braised and very fragrant. These braised meats were sold outside and were also brought up the mountain by Zeng Xubai because they bought a few chickens and could be taken out.
"besides……"
Liu Liang didn't let Goudan's mother speak, but of course she didn't let her refuse either.
"Here are some medicines."
She placed the medicine directly on the package.
"This is for stimulating appetite and helping digestion. Your neighbor's kid is just a glutton and has a stomachache from eating too much. If your kid also eats too much and feels uncomfortable, just give him two."
Goudan's mother's lips were trembling and tears were welling up in her eyes.
What Liu Liang feared most was that a woman like Goudan's mother would cry. So she left her things behind and left with Zeng Xubai, letting Goudan's mother slowly be moved. Once she was moved, everything would be fine.
