Chapter 40 The Blind Bear Who Writes
"Moo~~~Moo~~~"
“Ding-dong!”
Cows running along the country road.
The place was full of people.
Wang Quan picked up many people along the way.
I counted...eight people.
It's overloaded!
Jiang Miaomiao held on tightly to her brother's clothes.
I was afraid that the car would overturn if I wasn't careful.
"Don't be afraid, sister. With your brother here, bad guys will stay away from you."
Jiang Zifeng patted her back gently and glanced at Aunt Wang.
Jiang Miaomiao: ...
With her elder brother around, she was not afraid of Aunt Wang.
If it comes to a physical fight, Aunt Wang is no match for my eldest brother.
Aunt Wang was sitting with her back to them.
It's surprisingly quiet today.
When getting off the bus, Aunt Wang glanced at them with a smile on her face.
The look in his eyes when he looked at her was ambiguous, a mixture of contempt and a hint of pity, but he quickly passed it over.
It sent a chill down Jiang Miaomiao's spine.
Wang Quan jumped off the carriage first, then helped Jiang Zifeng up, "Feng Ge'er, Sanlang, my last trip back is at Youshi, don't miss it."
"Okay, thank you Uncle Quan!"
Jiang Zifeng thanked Wang Quan and hurriedly carried his sister to the clinic.
Baicaotang, the only medicine shop in Qingshi Town.
He also invited a barefoot doctor to see patients.
"Sir, my sister rolled off the bed and got a bump on her head. Could you please take a look at her?"
"Don't be anxious, brother. Let me take a look." Doctor Ge held Jiang Miaomiao's head and looked at it for a long time.
He felt around her head again, then took her little hand and took her pulse.
After a long time.
"The baby is fine, don't worry, little brother. Just go back and peel a boiled egg and apply it to your sister's forehead."
This was the first time Doctor Ge encountered a child who rolled off the bed and was brought to see him.
Children in the countryside are not that precious.
Bumps and bruises are common.
But looking at the boy and the baby in his arms, they looked like children from a wealthy family.
One is white and plump, the other is delicate and pretty, and they look like they were brought up in a pampered environment.
Jiang Zifeng confirmed again, "Sir, is my sister really okay?"
Doctor Ge stroked his beard and smiled, "It's okay, don't worry, it's not a brain injury, just a skin injury."
Looking at the clever look of the little girl rolling her eyes, it doesn't look like she has any brain injury.
Jiang Zifeng breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Thank you, sir. How much is the consultation fee?"
Jiang Miaomiao finally felt relieved.
After all, medical conditions were underdeveloped in ancient times, and any minor illness could cost a person's life.
No sequelae whatsoever!
"Little girl, you don't need to take medicine, and you can't take medicine, so I won't charge you for the consultation." Doctor Ge waved his hand.
The pharmacy was opened by the Cui family, and the owner would give him a monthly stipend. As long as he ordered medicine at Baicaotang, the consultation fee would be free.
"Thank you, sir!"
Jiang Zifeng thanked Doctor Ge and then carried his sister out of Baicaotang.
This doctor is quite nice.
The more Jiang Miaomiao learned about Qingshi Town, the better her impression of it became.
The scenery is picturesque and the people are simple.
Of course, there are some exceptions...
Jiang Zifeng carried his sister out, not knowing where to go for a moment, and wanted to go back.
But by now Uncle Quan’s ox cart should have turned back.
"Brother Feng, let's go shopping!" It was rare for Li Sanlang to go out alone, and he didn't want to go back so early.
Jiang Miaomiao didn't want to go back either, so she stuck her head out to take a look.
"The candied haws are sweet... The candied haws are big, and the candied haws are very sweet..." A fat woman selling candied haws came towards us, shouting as she walked.
Walking up to them, he said, "Brother, give me some candied haws, big and sweet ones."
Jiang Miaomiao shook her little hands.
Buy, buy, buy!
"Auntie, two skewers, I want the biggest ones." Jiang Zifeng reached into his pocket and took out some money. "How much?"
"Two strings, four coins."
The fat woman took two skewers from the top and looked at them with a smile.
He stared at Jiang Miaomiao for a moment.
Jiang Zifeng took the candied haws, one for Li Sanlang and one for himself.
I licked my sister first and then put it in my mouth.
Seeing this, Li Sanlang also followed Jiang Zifeng's example and licked the baby before starting to eat.
I eat one bite at a time and my mouth is full.
Jiang Miaomiao was still not satisfied and kept babbling.
Want to eat... Want to eat...
"Be good, sister. You can eat it after your teeth grow." Jiang Zifeng finished it in a few big bites.
After eating, my sister stopped making a fuss.
When I walked to the wonton stall, it was almost time for dinner.
"Sanlang, come on, I'll treat you to wontons."
"Wontons?" Li Sanlang pretended to decline. "No, wontons are expensive. Eight coins a bowl."
"It's okay. I asked you to come, so I should treat you." Jiang Zifeng asked the wonton stall owner for two bowls of wontons.
He took out sixteen copper coins.
Li Sanlang was a little envious of Jiang Zifeng. Aunt Lu actually gave him so much pocket money.
“Boring, boring, boring~~~”
"Dong de long dong~~~"
The sound of gongs and drums came from the street, and there was a crowd of people in front.
"Old man, what's going on in front? There are so many people." Li Sanlang finished his wontons in a few bites and pulled someone over to ask.
"There's a circus troupe coming up. I heard they brought a few blind bears with them. Those blind bears can actually write and compose poetry."
Before the passerby could finish his words, he was pulled away by the aunt next to him, "Hurry up, there will be no room if you are late."
"Brother Feng, let's go and take a look too!" Li Sanlang looked delighted and couldn't wait to pull Jiang Zifeng into the crowd.
Jiang Zifeng protected his sister with both hands, "Sister, do you want to see it?"
Jiang Miaomiao waved her little hands.
If you want to see... go and see the excitement.
I've only seen elephants paint, but I've never seen bears write or compose poetry.
I always feel that it is not real.
Want to find out.
The eldest brother and Li Sanlang protected her and squeezed in.
The crowd surrounded two large iron cages from a distance, in which were two large bears.
Humans are born with a fear of wild beasts, let alone man-eating blind bears.
So no one dared to get close and could only watch from afar.
"Boss, didn't you say that blind bears can write and compose poems? Let them write one and see." A voice came from the crowd.
"What do you want to write, father-in-law?" asked the middle-aged man with a beard.
"You are embarrassing me, an old man. I can't read. Just write whatever you want."
"Okay!" The bearded troupe leader picked up the gong and struck it a few times, then raised his voice and called out, "Dear uncles and aunts, I have raised a few blind bears who can write and compose poetry. Today I will perform the three words "Qingshi Town" for everyone. Folks who have money can support me with money, and those who don't have money can support me with their presence..."
"Okay, okay. As long as you write well, I'll give you a hundred bucks." Another voice came from the crowd.
Jiang Miaomiao stared at the blind bears intently.
They are bigger than ordinary blind bears and look listless.
The mane on his body has no luster.
It's too far, and I can't see clearly.
The bearded boss took a few pieces of white paper and showed them over and over again in front of everyone before putting them in front of the blind bear.
The two blind bears picked up their pens, dipped them in ink, and began to write on the paper.
How to say it, this skillful movement is quite inconsistent with the appearance of the bear.
A moment later.
The bearded boss took the written words and showed them to everyone.
“It’s so well written!”
Jiang Zifeng was stunned.
He was a little shocked that the blind bear's handwriting was almost as good as his.
Jiang Miaomiao's eyes followed those pieces of paper.
The handwriting is not very good, but it is not bad either.
There is a problem...
She felt something was wrong from the beginning.
Blind bears are the most brutal animals in the forest.
How could he be so obedient?
Not to mention writing.
She had never seen a bear write in her two lifetimes.
Moreover, the action of them just writing...
Surprisingly...somewhat like a human...
