On the day when the Fenglai Women's Rescue Station was completed, the city specially invited Tao Xiaoxi to witness it. When Tao Xiaoxi took the golden scissors and cut, she seemed to see a new era coming in those eyes full of expectation.
This era is somewhat similar to the later generations, but not completely. She seems to be in a time and space that belongs neither to the past nor to the future. This world has its own rules and its own things.
The project that Li Nanshan is working on has also entered the acceptance stage. Once the acceptance is passed, the project will be officially completed.
"After the project is completed, let's go on vacation. It's been a long time since we took the children out to play." Li Nanshan said, watching the children grow up, they will be getting married in a few years.
"That's great! In fact, I've had this idea for a long time." Tao Xiaoxi immediately agreed.
"So, south or north?"
"There is the sea in the south and the mountains in the north. If it is winter we go to the mountains, and if it is summer we go to the sea."
"What if it was the Spring and Autumn Period?" Li Nanshan asked.
"In spring and autumn, I travel from south to north, and after seeing the sea, I climb the mountains."
"Okay, I'll do as you say."
But, God was dissatisfied with the peace in the world and insisted on creating some trouble.
That day, a man and a woman came to the clinic. The woman was shouting and yelling, her temper high. She grabbed the man by the ear and, upon seeing Tao Xiaoxi and Ma Zi, continued to curse them, presumably implying they were incompetent and useless. The man, on the other hand, lowered his head and accepted the situation submissively, not daring to resist. Tao Xiaoxi, accustomed to seeing men being arrogant and women being bullied in her life, was initially curious and watched with amusement as the two men argued in her clinic.
The girl with pockmarks was so shocked that her eyes almost popped out of her head. She had never seen such a situation where the woman was strong and the man was weak. She couldn't get enough of it.
However, the man was being scolded so harshly that it had already caused discomfort to the other guests, so Tao Xiaoxi had no choice but to step forward and ask, "Are you two here to see a doctor or get some medicine?"
"I can get you medical treatment and medicine!" the woman said forcefully.
"Yes." The man said hesitantly.
"What are those symptoms?" Tao Xiaoxi asked.
"What other symptom could it be that I'm here? I can't have children. Look at this loser, is there any hope for him? If not, I'll find another one as soon as possible so as not to bring trouble to my Qian family." The woman said without any hesitation, and she really didn't give her man any face at all.
The pockmarked girl couldn't bear to watch it any longer. "It's not necessarily one person's fault if they can't have children. Maybe it's both of them."
"There's nothing wrong with me. The hospital has checked it out and it's his problem. Can you guys see me? If not, we'll leave." The woman said arrogantly.
Tao Xiaoxi signaled Xiangxiang not to worry, took the pulse of both the couple, and looked at the checkup list they brought. The result was just as the woman said, it was not her problem, but the man's problem.
The sperm quality is not high, making it difficult to conceive.
"Doctor, let me be frank with you. If you don't have an effective medicine, please don't bother. We have been taking various medicines for more than a year, and I don't want to waste any more time." The woman said in advance.
Tao Xiaoxi smiled without saying anything. She wrote out a prescription and gave it to the pockmarked girl, "Get the medicine."
While getting the medicine, the woman had to go to the toilet in the backyard because she had to go to the bathroom. When the man saw his wife leave, he straightened his back and walked around the shop in a proper manner.
"What's this for?" he asked, pointing to a red jar.
"Don't touch this, it's not good for pregnancy." The pockmarked girl kindly reminded.
"Really? Then I have to stay away from it. What is it called?" the man asked curiously.
"Red flower." said the girl with pockmarks.
The man wanted to ask something, but when he heard his wife's footsteps coming back, he shrank back into the corner.
"Boil three bowls of water into one bowl, add two pieces of rock sugar and a piece of broken tile as a medicine guide. The older the tile, the better." Tao Xiaoxi instructed.
The man took the medicine, the woman paid, and the couple went out one after another.
"This man is such a coward. I didn't expect to see such a spectacle in my lifetime. It's really an eye-opener." The pockmarked girl said with a sigh.
"This man is not a good person either. He just has no ability, but he may not be without temper." Tao Xiaoxi said.
"What do you mean?" The pockmarked girl was puzzled.
"Forget it, let's not talk about other people's right and wrong behind their backs. Besides, he is our God, and he knows his own feelings." Tao Xiaoxi waved his hand and went out.
She was a little craving for Liusao's mirror cake today, but she went too late and it was gone.
She rode her bike out and headed for Liu Sao's stall. On the way, she remembered she needed to buy a guitar string for Man Yatou. She had broken one last time, and Li Nanshan said he could fix it. So she turned and went to a music store. Next to the music store was a clothing store with many trendy clothes from Guangzhou. There was a sale going on today, so the store was packed with people, mostly young women.
Tao Xiaoxi bought some guitar strings and someone stepped on her foot. She felt very upset when her new shoes, which she had just worn today, were stepped on. When she looked up, it was an acquaintance. Tao Xiaoxi cursed a plant in her heart: grass!
It was Yao Youhua. And next to her was the man who had just come to her clinic to buy medicine.
In just a quarter of an hour, Yao Youhua was standing next to this man? What was going on?
Tao Xiaoxi looked at the man meaningfully, but the man seemed not to know Tao Xiaoxi. He just greeted Yao Youhua and left. Tao Xiaoxi heard him call her "cousin"?
Are they relatives?
"It's Xiaoxi. I'm sorry, I didn't see you and stepped on your shoes. Let me wipe them for you." Yao Youhua pretended to wipe her shoes.
Most people would say, "It's okay, no need," but Tao Xiaoxi is not an ordinary person. She stretched out her foot for Yao Youhua to wipe.
Yao Youhua was confused by her actions and half straightened her waist. "Look, I didn't bring a handkerchief with me when I went out. How about you take it off and I'll bring it back to wipe it for you?"
Tao Xiaoxi sneered, said "forget it" and left.
My good mood for the day was ruined by this couple.
When Tao Xiaoxi returned with the mirror cake, she specifically asked Ma Zi to verify, "Does Yao Youhua have a cousin?"
"That's a lot. Who doesn't have a few cousins?" said the girl with pockmarks.
"I didn't." Tao Xiaoxi muttered softly, not very hurtful, but a little insulting.
Fortunately, the mirror cake tasted pretty good. Tao Xiaoxi ate several pieces and her stomach felt a little sour. In the evening, Li Nanshan came to pick her up and asked her what she wanted to eat. She rubbed her stomach and thought for a while, "Let's buy some fruit and make some fruit soup when we get home. Is there any milk at home?"
"We have milk, but what is this fruit salad?"
"It's not a dish, it's a dessert."
"Desserts can't be eaten as meals."
"I can do it. You and your daughter can take care of it yourselves. Or you can go to the factory to eat." Tao Xiaoxi said with a smile.
Li Nanshan shook his head. He was finding it increasingly difficult to understand what his wife was saying.
