Chapter 32

Zhang Cai said, "It's definitely not ginseng. I've only seen it in a clinic when I was young. Since I came to the Guozhuang House, I haven't seen it again."

Everyone was even more confused. What could it be?

Usually, everyone ate from the same pot, and they ate the same farmhouse food. There was nothing special about it.

Everyone was puzzled.

Seeing that it was late, Zhang Cai and Guo Sufei had been busy the whole day. They were both physically and mentally exhausted. Everyone left.

Zhang Xiaohua tiptoed back to his grandmother's hut. His grandmother was already asleep. Although she coughed softly from time to time, she was still very tired. She was still in a deep sleep and did not notice Xiaohua's movement.

Zhang Xiaohua burrowed into her blanket and listened to her grandmother's suppressed coughs and intermittent breathing. Her heart ached, and she couldn't help but think of her grandmother's kindness to her. Bits and pieces of her memories flashed in her mind. Usually, when she was free, she didn't feel that she had deep feelings for her grandmother. But now, she found that her grandmother's memories were deeply engraved in her mind. There were so many, so fine, and she couldn't forget a single bit. Zhang Xiaohua's heart sank.

Thinking about it, Zhang Xiaohua shed tears. Tears flowed down his face and slid onto the pillow. Gradually, he fell asleep. Zhang Xiaohua's flickering dream came as scheduled.

In the dream, Zhang Xiaohua seemed to be living in a breathing world that flickered rhythmically. His breathing, his body, and everything about him followed the flickering. They flickered unconsciously, gradually becoming one with the world.

The next morning, when the first ray of sunlight shone into his grandmother's hut, Zhang Xiaohua opened his eyes on time. The same flickering light flashed in his eyes.

The first thing Zhang Xiaohua did after opening his eyes was to listen to his grandmother's voice.

However, there was no cough or breathing. He hurriedly got up, only to find that his grandmother was not in the room. When he got up and walked out of the room, he saw his grandmother sitting on a chair in the courtyard. The morning wind was still very cold, blowing his grandmother's white hair in the sun. Zhang Xiaohua's eyes were blurred.

He quickly ran over and said to his grandmother, "Grandma, you should go back to your room quickly. The wind in the morning is very cold. Your body is not good to begin with, so don't come out in the morning in the future."

Grandma's hand groped for Zhang Xiaohua's head and said lovingly, "Xiaohua, Grandma is old and doesn't sleep much. I can't sleep anymore, so I came out to get some fresh air. I'll go back now, okay?"

Zhang Xiaohua didn't say anything. She just silently helped her grandmother back to the warm house.

Coming out of the hut, Zhang Xiaohua was still looking at the morning sun in the sky. Suddenly, he remembered what happened a few days ago, so he also did the action of biting the sun. Sure enough, this time he still felt a warm current enter his throat. Zhang Xiaohua was stunned. Could it be that it wasn't his illusion?

His eyes rolled a few times. Could this be "Tiangou eating the sun"? Could it be that he had become a Tiangou?

After pondering for a while, he still couldn't think of a reason. He shook his head and no longer thought about it. He just prepared to take a bite every morning and see what the situation was.

After eating a simple breakfast, Zhang Xiaohua went to the slope to get spring water as usual.

Zhang Xiaohua was just about to go out when Liu Qian, who was cleaning up the dishes, called out, "I know what grandma eats."

Everyone was stunned. Zhang Cai asked in puzzlement, "What do you mean by what grandma eats?"

Liu Qian smiled and said, "It was yesterday. Didn't the doctor say that grandma ate ginseng?"

Only then did Zhang Cai come to a realization. Zhang Xiaolong said anxiously, "Hurry up and tell me, what did grandma eat?" Zhang Xiaohua also stopped in her tracks.

Liu Qian said mysteriously, "It should be said that grandma drank something."

"Drink?" Zhang Xiaolong heard the word "drink" and looked at Zhang Xiaohua. He seemed to understand something.

Zhang Xiaohu hadn't finished eating yet. He stared blankly at the bowl of porridge in his hand and said in a daze, "Just this?

Is it ginseng?

That's not possible. "

Liu Qian saw that everyone was puzzled, so she explained, "Look, everyone. Didn't we think for a long time last night, but we couldn't think of anything special?

However, the doctor said that she only ate it recently. In the past, she only drank a little of the well water on the slope occasionally.

After I came, I started to eat a lot of the well water. Especially grandma, she only started to drink tea made from the well water recently. The well water that we use to eat also started to be used recently!

In terms of time, only this well water fits this condition. "

Guo Sufei patted her head and said, "That's true. Yesterday, I only thought about eating and didn't think about drinking. Liu Qian is really right."

Zhang Cai said, "I believe that ginseng can nourish mother's body. This water, no matter how good it is, is it still water. Can it be eaten as a tonic?"

He asked Liu Qian doubtfully.

Liu Qian didn't know how to answer and said, "Uncle, I don't know about this. Why don't we get a pot of water and send it to the town's medical hall and let them take a look?"

Guo Sufei said, "En, okay. Why don't we let Xiao Hu bring a pot and run to town to let the doctor take a look?"

Zhang Xiaohu said excitedly, "Okay, I'll immediately eat and prepare. My injury is almost healed, so it won't be a problem for me to make a trip."

Zhang Xiaohua also said, "I'll go get some water right away. I also want to go to town with second brother."

After saying that, she prepared to run up the slope.

At this moment, Zhang Cai spoke up. He said, "No, you mustn't go!"

Everyone was stunned again. Guo Sufei said, "Husband, what do you mean?

Why don't you let Xiao Hu and the others go? "

Zhang Cai saw that everyone was very strange and said with a wry smile, "Have you forgotten about Mr. Wu from the neighboring village?"

Suddenly, Liu Qian and Zhang Xiaohua understood, but the others were still confused. Zhang Xiaohu said curiously, "Father, of course we know about Mr. Wu. He was killed by the bandits because he dug out a treasure."

Zhang Cai said, "Then is our well water a treasure?"

Zhang Xiaohu said, "We don't know, so we let the town's doctor take a look."

Zhang Cai immediately said, "What if it is?"

Zhang Xiaohu was speechless and didn't know how to continue.

Liu Qian saw that everyone was still confused, so she explained, "Uncle means that if the well water is a treasure and the town's doctor finds out, then it will be a big deal. The well is full of ginseng, which is much more precious than Mr. Wu's box of jewelry. If the bandits find out, then won't they kill and steal the water?

Moreover, the well water is not in our courtyard, but far away on the slope. We can't just say that it's ours. If people find out and come to get water, should we let them take it or not?

If it's all taken, then what will grandma drink?

What we're most afraid of is that it will be taken over by people with power and no one can get it. "

Everyone finally understood.

Zhang Xiaolong asked again, "If we don't let the doctor take a look, then how do we know if the well water is useful for grandma?"

Liu Qian smiled and said, "Let's not talk about whether the doctor will take the water to the clinic or not, or whether the doctor will be able to tell.

Even if the well water is useless and we don't know if it's useful for grandma's body, it won't be a loss to us. Don't we still need to drink this water and use it to cook? "

Then, Liu Qian said seriously, "If this water is useful, then we might not be able to drink this water in the future. Grandma won't be able to drink it either. She might even be killed."

Guo Sufei quickly said, "Liu Qian is right. We can't go to town to find a doctor.

Moreover, everyone must keep the well water a secret. Don't tell anyone. "

Everyone nodded.

Zhang Xiaohua shook her head as she went to get the water. She muttered to herself, "In this world, people's hearts are not what they used to be.

No matter what you do, you have to protect yourself first. It's so hard to be a human. "

Since that day, Zhang Xiaohua had been fetching water from the slope more often. All the water in the house, including food, drink, and washing, were replaced with the well water. They no longer used the river water by the village.

It seemed that everyone was hoping for a miracle to happen to grandma.

Grandma's body was still weak, and her coughing did not seem to ease.

However, Zhang Cai, Zhang Xiaolong, and Zhang Xiaohu's injuries were rapidly recovering day after day.

Especially Zhang Xiaolong. When he went to the veterinarian Old Chen to change his medicine for the first time, Old Chen could hardly believe his eyes. He looked and touched Zhang Xiaolong again and again. Finally, in front of the facts, he had to believe that Zhang Xiaolong had really recovered more than half. His broken bones were about to be healed. He completely ignored Guo Sufei's face full of joy and thanked him profusely. He hurriedly sent them away and ran into his own pharmacy. He carefully kept the medicine that he had made for Zhang Xiaolong only once. He was secretly proud. Who said that he could only be a veterinarian?

This was the first time he made the medicine and it had such an effect. Could it be that he had the potential to be a miracle doctor?

It seemed that he had to change his profession someday. He would open a miracle doctor's clinic in the bustling area of Lu Town. With this magical medicine, wouldn't he make a fortune?

Not to mention the veterinarian Old Chen's wild imagination, the whole Zhang family was happy to see that Zhang Xiaolong's injury recovered so quickly. They were more and more aware that it was due to the well water. Grandma was in a particularly good mood when she learned that her grandson's arm had recovered. Her face was also smiling like a flower. Her cough was also light. The whole family was very happy and happy.

As for Liu Qian, she did not know what she was feeling.

She was very surprised to see that Zhang Xiaolong came back without a splint. She was happy with everyone. But after a while, she felt a sense of loss. She tried to avoid this emotion and did not admit her thoughts, but she knew that she really liked this family and Zhang Xiaolong.

She did not want to leave here and return to her home. Was her home not good?

She asked herself. The answer was no. She also liked her home, but it seemed that the feeling of her home was different from the feeling here. What was the difference?

Maybe it was because of Zhang Xiaolong.

However, Zhang Xiaolong's injury was healed. What reason did she have to stay here?
