Zhou Huaian rolled his eyes, "Don't worry, you've already learned it. Look at Secretary Xu, he's older than you, but he can still ride his bike very fast."
Father Zhou said angrily: "I'm just worried that I'll break your bikes. If you don't mind, I'll learn it when you come back from Ning'an!"
"Don't worry, this is my second-hand car. You can smash it as you like. If it gets broken, it's my fault!" Zhou Huaian put the rope over his shoulder, lifted the handlebars, pushed the cart, and walked towards the gate of the yard with a creaking sound.
Pushing her bicycle, Yang Chunyan seemed to see again the scene when he first pushed the chicken bus into the city to sell herbs.
The old man patted Zhou's father and said, "Just learn when I tell you to. I will learn with you!"
Father Zhou shook his head and said, "Forget it. You are old and if you fall..."
The old man glared at him angrily, "Get lost! You're just talking nonsense!"
"I'm just worried about you!" Zhou's father followed him awkwardly, "Old man, if you really want to learn, come back and we can learn together!"
Zhou Huaian pushed the chicken bus to Zhou Yiding's door and tried to knock on the door, but it opened immediately. "Fuck, you scared me."
Zhou Yiding looked at him with a smile, "How did you know we were back?"
Zhou Huaian hit him, "I was just trying it out, how could I know your kid was really at home?"
Zhou Yiding said happily: "I came back last night, but it was too late so I didn't go to see you!"
At this time, Wan Xuejiao, dressed in new clothes, came out pushing a bicycle, "Second Grandpa, Second Dad, you guys want to go too!"
The old man said happily: "Yes, let's go and see your big hotel. Your second mother will go tomorrow."
Zhou Yiding said with a smile: "When it wasn't renovated yet, I went to the city to do some work and took a look, it was absolutely horrible!" Doctor Xiao Wang hired all the waiters and got the certificates ready, and the two of them just acted as the ready-made bosses.
A few people walked ahead while talking.
"Sister-in-law!" Wan Xuejiao walked to Yang Chunyan's side, "Is Xiao Jiuer at home?"
"It's too early. I don't want to bring him out." Yang Chunyan looked at Wan Xuejiao's slightly bulging belly. "When we get to the asphalt road, we'll stop a tractor and go over."
"It's okay, I walk in the mountains every day!" Wan Xue smiled, "Yiding brought you a jar of cherry wine and a bucket of honey this time. I'll give them to you when I come back later."
"Thanks!" Yang Chunyan chatted with her as they walked, and cheerful laughter continued to be heard from the people in front.
After walking past the drying dam and reaching the steep slope, Zhou Yiding gave the bicycle to Zhou's father to push, and he went to the front to help Zhou Huaian withstand the downward speed of the chicken bus. Zhou Huaian held the handlebars tightly and successfully put the chicken bus down the slope.
After crossing the bridge, he wiped the sweat off his face and said, "Fuck, I haven't pushed a chicken bus for a long time. I just went down a steep slope and my calves are still shaking."
Zhou Yiding said with a smile: "I think you are not going to make it! When we get to Ning'an, I will buy some pig's trotters and stew them to replenish our body!"
"Get lost!" Zhou Huaian rolled his eyes at him, "You are the one who needs to make up for it! Otherwise, why did you arrive so late last night?"
Zhou Yiding: "We hid from the rain for a while, and Xuejiao said she had a cramp in her leg, so we were delayed."
Zhou Huaian thought for a moment, "Chunyan had cramps before, and Doctor Xiao Wang said it was caused by calcium deficiency. She should just buy some calcium tablets and she'll be fine."
"I'll buy her some later." Zhou Yiding added, "My old man told me that Uncle Datian said that the family planning officials this year will just ignore families who want to have more children as long as they pay a fine, right?"
Zhou Huaian nodded, "That's what Aunt Datian said the other day. Are you planning on it now?"
Zhou Yiding whispered, "What I mean is that no matter if it's a boy or a girl, it's best to have one more child, or even better, two."
Zhou Huaian patted him on the shoulder and said, "Brother, if you want to have two more children, you have to save more money to pay the fine!"
"I'll hand it in!" Zhou Yiding said, then asked, "What about you?"
Zhou Huaian smiled and said, "I'll just have two. A daughter would be best, but a son is fine too."
As they were talking, the old man and Zhou's father and others arrived, "Let's go!"
"Let's go!" Zhou Huaian put on the shoulder straps, grabbed the handlebars, and the bus started to squeak.
The group waited under the yellow horn tree for a while, and then a tractor came. They lifted the bamboo basket from the chicken bus onto the truck bed, climbed up and leaned against the truck bed, and fell asleep after a while.
When we woke up, we had already arrived at Ning'an Bridge. Everyone took down the bamboo baskets, tied them up, and delivered the vegetables to the guesthouse.
Huang Yongcai was already waiting at the door. After everyone exchanged greetings, he smiled and asked Zhou Huaian, "You two came here together. Did you catch any game?"
"We have badger pork!" Zhou Huaian smiled as he and Zhou Yiding lifted the red mushrooms down and moved the bamboo baskets down. "How much do you want?"
"We don't want them here, send them all over there." Huang Yongcai thought for a moment, "Or you can put them all here to weigh them, and I'll send them over on my tricycle later."
They were holding the hotel's opening party at Douhuazhuang, so he had to go over and take care of it.
"Okay!" Zhou Huaian and Zhou Yiding carried down another bamboo basket, and Zhou's father also took the backpack from the back seat of Yang Chunyan's bicycle.
After Zhou Huaian and Huang Yongcai weighed the items one by one, they took the money and pushed the cart to Deshengtang on North Street. Wang Zhen and Yang Dongmei had just removed the door panels of the clinic.
"Sister, wait for me, I'll open the gate for you." Yang Dongmei ran happily to the backyard.
Wang Zhen smiled and looked at the chicken bus, "I haven't seen you push it here for a long time."
Zhou Huaian smiled and said, "During this period, I have to go to Baicaoping to transport goods every day. I can only trouble my old friend."
Wang Zhen thought for a moment and asked, "How much dry goods do we have at home?"
Zhou Huaian calculated today's shipment volume, "Including today's shipment, there are still more than a thousand kilograms in total. We will deliver them all tomorrow afternoon."
Wang Zhen: "Send them together the day after tomorrow. The truck over there will arrive the day after tomorrow morning."
"That's great!" Zhou Huaian said to him, "Please take the pulse of my grandfather and old man." Doctor Wang was taken away by people from the provincial capital some time ago. I heard that he was going to give acupuncture treatment to an old friend.
The old man and Zhou's father hurriedly said, "We are not in any pain, there is no need to trouble Doctor Xiao Wang!"
"Take his pulse, it's not a big deal." Wang Zhen led the father and the other two inside. "Brother Zhou, you guys take the red mushroom to the backyard first. My brother should be here soon."
"Yeah!" Zhou Huaian pushed the chicken cart and Zhou Yiding to the backyard.
Yang Chunyan looked at Wan Xuejiao and said, "Let's go see Doctor Xiao Wang to check Grandpa and the old man's pulse."
Wan Xuejiao hesitated for a moment, walked to her side, and whispered: "Sister-in-law, I want to ask Doctor Xiao Wang to take my pulse!"
Yang Chunyan smiled and said, "You're only three months old, don't panic." She remembered that she gave birth to a son, and that she and Zhou Yiding taught their son very well.
"Sister-in-law, you know," Wan Xuejiao said with a sigh, "He is the only male in the Ding family. I am always worried..."
Yang Chunyan patted her hands and said, "Don't worry, children are destined. To be honest, I didn't let them see my baby when I was pregnant with Xiao Jiuer."
"Okay! I'll ask Yiding to go to the department store to buy some things." Wan Xuejiao agreed, but she still wanted to know the result in advance. She thought about talking to Zhou Yiding later and asking him to ask Dr. Xiao Wang for help.
"Okay!" Seeing her go to the backyard, Yang Chunyan went to the clinic and heard Wang Zhen tell Zhou's father that he was fine in other aspects, but he might have been overworked during this period and he should rest well when he returned.
"Old man, you and grandpa have been taking turns turning over those red mushrooms in the oven day and night. You should go back and have a good rest for a few days.
Father Zhou smiled and said, "I'm not tired. It may be because it's too hot in the oven and I sweat too much."
Wang Zhen asked him some more questions, "I'll prescribe some Chinese medicine for you later."
Father Zhou smiled and waved his hand, "No need to take medicine, it's okay, just go back and get some sleep."
After hearing this, Wang Zhen laughed, asked the old man to sit on a stool, began to examine his eyes, told him that he was recovering well, and after taking his pulse he took him to the inner room and gave him acupuncture.
Yang Dongmei came back from the backyard and took Yang Chunyan to sit on the bench at the door to talk. "A few days ago, Wang Zhen's father called and said that he would go to the flower market for a meeting in a few days. He would come here to visit when he goes. It seems that his stepmother will also come with him."
Yang Chunyan smiled and said, "The ugly daughter-in-law will have to meet her parents-in-law sooner or later. When they come, you should receive them politely!"
"Wang Zhen said the same thing," Yang Dongmei whispered. "He also said that the woman spoke in a sarcastic tone and liked to act superior. If I felt comfortable listening to her, I would listen to her. If I didn't, I would just say it back without being polite. I shouldn't give her face."
It was the first time that Yang Chunyan heard Wang Zhen use such words to evaluate someone. It seemed that his stepmother was indeed not a good person.
"Anyone who can make Dr. Wang so angry that she loses her temper is definitely not a good person. There is no need to be polite to such a person. Just fight back directly."
Yang Dongmei nodded heavily, "I won't be polite. People like us who live in the mountains don't know any etiquette."
"Right!" Yang Chunyan laughed, "I'm here to slap you in the face. Why should I be polite?"
Yang Dongmei said angrily again: "Sister, that bitch must be very bad, otherwise he wouldn't say that."
Yang Chunyan patted her and said, "If he doesn't want to talk, don't ask. When he wants to talk, he will tell you naturally."
"I know. Just thinking about how he would get so angry with his temper makes me feel uncomfortable!"
"Then be nice to him and stop being such a hot chili pepper!"
Yang Dongmei pouted, "No way, you're making me sound so unreasonable!"
"Okay, my little sister is the most polite!" Yang Chunyan pulled her ponytail with a smile, "You can talk to Wang Zhen later and ask him to write the prescription for grandpa and the old man, and bring the medicine back to me."
"I'll go take a look, maybe he has already written a prescription." Yang Dongmei said as she walked to the consulting table, picked up a prescription and shook it at her, "Look, I guessed it!" (End of this chapter)
