Druid's Country Retirement

Chapter 238 Family
"father!"

The crisp cry floated into the old house, and then Anna ran into the yard bouncing and jumping, and plunged into Li Hongbing's arms.

"Dad, Anna misses you so much." The little man in his arms acted coquettishly, but secretly glanced at the animals at home.

Li Hongbing didn't know what his daughter was thinking, so he patted his head and said, "Go and play!"

Haw!

Anna kissed Li Hongbing heavily on the face, and ran to the wooden house in a jump.

When the animals saw the little demon king coming back, they ran away in fright. The cub with immobile legs and feet became the first victim, and was held in Anna's arms.

oh oh oh.

Xiong Cub sent out a call for help to Li Hongbing, but the eggs fell apart.

Father, mother, eldest sister, second sister, and two brother-in-laws walked into the yard carrying large and small bags.

Seeing Li Hongbing sitting in a wheelchair, my mother and two sisters burst into tears.

"What are you crying for? San'er is not dead. I have never seen you cry like this when I was hospitalized." The old man was so jealous that the words he said were really sour.

Dare to say such a son, he was immediately caught and scolded by his mother, and the old account was brought out again.

But when the father intervened, Li Hongbing was rescued.

The two brothers-in-law handed the gift to Shan Xing, and comforted the brother-in-law with kindness.

The most painful thing for a man is that he has no energy and no chance to go out to drink flower wine in the future. Poor Shan Xing is a widow.

Although he knew that the two brothers-in-law were teasing on purpose, Li Hongbing listened so harshly.

"You two are almost done. Believe it or not, I told my sister about the two of you going to the rich man."

As soon as these words came out, the faces of the two brothers-in-law changed drastically, and they quickly said all kinds of nice things.

"San'er, why are you piling up so many old millstones?" The old man wiped his face and escaped from his mother's mouth, deliberately using the pile of millstones piled up on the rice field to find a topic.

Li Hongbing naturally understood his father's careful thoughts, and said directly.

"Grind tofu and eat."

"You know how to grind?" The father looked at his half-paralyzed son in surprise.

Li Hongbing shook his head cheerfully, "No, will you?"

"Neither will I." The old man also shook his head.

The father and son saw the contempt in each other's eyes.

A half disabled son.

A soft old man.

They are also qualified to despise each other and laugh to death.

My mother came to the millstone speechlessly and checked it out, "The millstone is still usable, Xiaoqian, Xiaocui, come and help me."

The mother-in-law called, and the two brothers-in-law ran forward.

Mom pointed at the millstone, "Both of you lift the millstone up and put it on the base."

It's that small.

It takes two people.

The two brothers-in-law looked at the grinding disc with a diameter of more than one meter, and they didn't take it seriously. They each grabbed a corner and lifted it up easily.

what!
Did not move!
The two brother-in-laws smiled mischievously, rolled up their sleeves and summoned up their strength to lift them up again.

The millstone still remained motionless, as stable as Mount Tai.

Grass!
so heavy.

Turning to see the brother-in-law who was smiling playfully and the old man who wanted to laugh but was too embarrassed to laugh.

This girl slapped her face.

A small grinding disc can't be moved.

The two brothers-in-law looked at each other, saw the determination in each other's eyes, and nodded.

For the dignity of the son-in-law.

Had to lift it up today.

"One, two, three, get up!"

His face was flushed red, his arms trembled violently, and the millstone in front of his eyes was raised little by little.

Before they had time to be happy, the two heard a click in their ears, and a sharp pain spread from the waist to the upper body and lower body respectively.

I'm done!
……

Under the eaves of the hall.

"Hey Hey!"

The eldest brother-in-law and the second brother-in-law sat on both sides with their backs supported, with sad faces, and Li Hongbing sat in the middle, laughing uncontrollably, eyes almost streaming out of laughter, this was the happiest thing that happened to me when I woke up.

"Laugh enough, laugh at me again."

"If you didn't want to eat tofu, I would be like this."

"Hey, I don't laugh anymore..." Li Hongbing wiped away tears from the corners of his eyes, and suppressed a smile, "Now I feel balanced and comfortable."

"You're so comfortable, hurry up and think of a way. I'm going back to the city tomorrow, and there are a lot of things waiting to be dealt with." The eldest brother-in-law frowned.

"Me too." Second brother-in-law.

"Don't worry, I will use massage in the afternoon to ensure that you can sleep peacefully at night." Li Hongbing smiled, and suddenly remembered something, and said to his second brother-in-law, "Some vegetables in the contracted fields are ready to go on the market, you call someone to come and collect the vegetables .”

"So fast?"

When the second brother-in-law heard the news, he stood up abruptly, and then sat back in the chair with an ouch. The severe pain caused a layer of cold sweat to break out on his forehead.

"You can take it easy, there is really nothing you can do if you hurt me again." Li Hongbing looked at the miserable appearance of his second brother-in-law, and his waist seemed to hurt a little.

"It's not your fault." The second brother-in-law, who was overwhelmed, complained, and took out his mobile phone to call the company, arranging for someone to come to the village to pull vegetables.

The eldest brother-in-law at the side took the opportunity to ask, "San'er, how is the matter with my homestay going?"

Li Hongbing waved his hand.

"Take it easy, don't worry, it will be finalized in just one or two months."

"Okay, then I'll wait for your good news."

Under the eaves, three old, weak, sick and disabled chatted.

Others on the paddy field were not idle either.

The two sons-in-law were killed in battle. Mom can't count on them, and she has no confidence in dad. Don't accidentally paralyze all the men in the family. That's a joke.

I found a silly boy, and the more than 200-jin millstone was like a toy in his hand, and he put the millstone by the well.

The old mill is accompanied by a well.

Add a touch of farmhouse flavor to the old house.

Shan Xing was not idle here either. He found soybeans from the warehouse and soaked them in a basin. The soybeans used to grind tofu had to be soaked in water overnight before they could be used.

At this time.

Anna ran into the rice field with a doll in her arms, came to the steps and held up the doll to show off.

"Dad, look at my doll, does it look good?"

Li Hongbing, who was chatting with the two brothers-in-law, glanced casually, "It's pretty, who bought you a black doll, so special."

wrong.

Black doll?
Li Hongbing came to his senses suddenly and looked carefully at the doll in his daughter's arms.

Floral skirt, small foreign cap, dark skin.

If you read correctly, the black baby is a bear cub.

Hey!
The black doll in the daughter's arms moved, and a pair of pitiful eyes turned to Li Hongbing.

Oh, it's really a bear cub.

Li Hongbing ignored the help-seeking eyes, nodded and praised, "That's right, it's good, my daughter just knows how to play."

Anna, who was praised, narrowed her eyes with a smile, "Dad, there are still dolls, Xiaobai, come out quickly."

Woohoo!

There was a depressing growl from behind the house, and when Xiao Bai with resentful eyes came out, everyone in the yard was stunned.

Xiao Bai, who was originally pure white, is now covered in various colors. His eyebrows are widened and thickened with ink, and his cheeks are painted with blush.

The appearance was too horrible to bear, and the wolf was ashamed, even Dahua hid away with other wolves.

In fact, this is not a big deal. Children play house, almost all of them use what they catch. Who hasn't played house when they were young.

The problem is that the black hat on Xiaobai's head is a bit special, it's actually a large hollowed-out blindfold. If Li Hongbing remembers correctly, Shan Xing should have bought it from an underwear store during the town fair last time.

"San'er, don't be angry. The child doesn't understand, just beat him up." The eldest brother-in-law persuaded in a low voice.

"Yes, don't use a belt, use a shoe sole." The second brother-in-law followed suit.

You two are very sick.

Watching jokes is not afraid of big things.

Li Hongbing looked at his brother-in-law who encouraged him to beat the child, and shouted at Shan Xing who was washing soybeans.

"Myolie."

"What's wrong, bro."

Shan Xing turned her head and looked in the direction Li Hongbing pointed, her face turned red.

He grabbed the big blindfold from Xiaobai's head, slapped Xiaobai's fart twice, and ran into the room.

Xiaobai looked at Anna innocently.

You did something bad, why should I be beaten.

……

There is always a price to pay for doing something wrong.

At lunch, Anna sat aside with a bowl of white rice curled up, watching the adults eating around the table.

Anyone who persuades her will be stared back by her mother.

In the old lady's words, it's the granddaughter who is lucky. If the son did this, he would have already had a fart.

have eaten.

In the wooden house, the eldest brother-in-law and the second brother-in-law were lying on the bed, watching the brother-in-law take out acupuncture needles, alcohol, and wormwood.

"San'er, can you do it?"

"That's right, it's inconvenient for you now, so don't force yourself."

Li Hongbing, who was preparing the tools, rolled his eyes, "My legs and feet are bad, and my hands are not bad. Just your little injury, I can heal it with my eyes closed. Just lie down and don't move."

While speaking, Li Hongbing turned the wheelchair and came to the elder brother-in-law, grabbed the palm of his hand, and pressed his thumb on the lumbago point, gradually increasing the pressure from light to heavy.

"There is numbness and swelling, just say something."

As time passed, the eldest brother-in-law frowned more and more, and suddenly shouted.

"It's numb, it's numb, it's so sour, take it lightly."

"You have an acute lumbar sprain, the blood leaves the meridians, and the meridians are blocked, causing the flow of qi and blood to be blocked, and if it is blocked, it will cause pain."

Li Hongbing withdrew his palm and picked up alcohol to disinfect his hands.

Then let the eldest brother-in-law turn over and lie on his side. Li Hongbing pressed his shoulder with one hand and his ilium with the other, and pushed in the opposite direction, from small to large. There is a rattling sound.

After repeating more than ten times.

"How do you feel?" Li Mingbing asked.

"It's a little sore, but it's less painful." The eldest brother-in-law buried his head in the pillow and said in a muffled voice.

"You have nothing to do and exercise more. There are only zero or countless times of waist twisting. As long as you twist it once, it will happen again in the future." Li Hongbing took out the syringe, took out a silver needle and disinfected it with alcohol, "Lie flat, don't move, I'll give you a needle."

With silver needles stuck on the acupuncture points, Li Hongbing took the time to talk to his second brother-in-law about buying vegetables.

"How do you plan to sell this batch of vegetables?"

"For high-end customers, the brand will use your company's name, oak vegetables, 88 per catty, someone will come to pick up the goods tomorrow morning, remember to arrange for someone to pick them." The second brother-in-law lay on the bed talking about his plan, and finally remembered something, "By the way, the herbs I bought from outside will be delivered together tomorrow, and you can find a place to receive them."

"Is the amount too large?" Li Hongbing began to withdraw the needles from the eldest brother-in-law.

"Not much, only [-] to [-] catties, and there will be more in the future."

Li Hongbing's hands trembled, and the eldest brother-in-law lying on the bed uttered a scream, "I said, can you choose a time for you two to chat, and I'll give you an injection!"

As the silver needles withdrew from the acupuncture points on his waist one by one, black blood came out along the needle holes. Li Hongbing wiped away the blood with a paper until the black blood turned red, and then he patted his eldest brother-in-law on the back, "Get up, Move a little bit."

That's it!

The eldest brother-in-law climbed up cautiously, obviously not feeling the pain in his waist like a razor blade, walked back and forth a few steps after getting off the ground, and stretched out his thumb in satisfaction.

"Excellent, your medical skills are really good!"

When it was the turn of the second brother-in-law, Li Hongbing also performed massage first and then acupuncture, while the eldest brother-in-law stood aside and chattered endlessly, anyway, chatting all over the world.

The second brother-in-law was so angry that his teeth itched because of a few blind chatters, which caused the brother-in-law to pierce several acupuncture points wrongly, grinning in pain and screaming.

Li Hongbing looked helplessly at the old men, who together were almost 100 years old, who were as angry as children.

"Okay, you're fine too."

As the two brothers-in-law had just resumed their activities, they became restless again, and took Li Hongbing to go around the village, one to see the growth of vegetables, and the other to see the progress of the company's construction team.

"Anna, we are going to the village, do you want to go?"

Li Hongbing asked Anna who was tossing the animals under the old oak tree.

"go with!"

As soon as Anna heard that she was going to enter the village, she immediately put down the bear cub, let go of Xiao Bai, and ran into the mushroom hut. When she came out, she was carrying a bulging schoolbag.

"What are you pretending to be?" Li Hongbing asked.

"A gift for Tie Dan and Mantou."

The daughter's reply reminded Li Hongbing of something, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.

Little girl, Dad will give you a gift later.

Today it was Erhei's turn to go out to work. Erhei skillfully put on the rope, pulled up the wheelchair and walked out the door. The two brothers-in-law stared at him.

Dog sleds are common, but this is the first time I have seen a dog pulling a wheelchair.

"Father, I want to make a wheelchair too." Anna begged, shaking Li Hongbing.

Unable to resist his daughter's acting like a baby, Li Hongbing let her sit on his lap.

It was the first time she was in a wheelchair, Anna was full of curiosity and excitement, and shouted at Erhei, "Erhei, run faster, run faster."

Erhei is the nervous wolf in the family, he has a single tendon, and he can compete with huskies.

Hearing Anna's instigation, his mind suddenly went up.

With a sudden force, he dragged the wheelchair and flew out.

Li Hongbing, who had no time to stop, only felt that the wheelchair was lifted up at a high speed. His daughter was sitting on his lap and could not see the road ahead, so he could only hug her tightly to prevent the car from overturning and protect her immediately.

Straight line acceleration.

Curve drift.

A wheelchair flew wildly on the mountain road.

The two brother-in-laws had seen this scene before, and the wheelchair was getting farther and farther away from them. They didn't have time to think about it, and they were chasing behind.

After Erhei exhausted his energy, he slowly slowed down.

Li Hongbing's face was pale, and the heart in his throat slowly fell, he quickly pulled the rope to make Erhei stop, and said to Anna.

"You, go down."

"Oh!" Anna seemed to know that her father was angry, so she jumped out of the wheelchair and hid behind Erhei.

Whoosh!

The two brothers-in-law caught up, panting with their hands on their knees, unable to speak.

Li Hongbing stared at his daughter, "Look how tired your uncle is, do you know how dangerous it was just now? What if the car overturns?"

Anna lowered her head and put on a pitiful look.

"Okay, she's still a child, why bother her."

"You didn't overturn the car, it looks like you scared my daughter."

The two brother-in-laws both wanted a daughter in their dreams. When they saw Li Hongbing arguing with Anna, they immediately changed their positions and put Anna behind them.

Li Hongbing looked at his daughter who pulled out her head from behind her brother-in-law and made a face, and was speechless for a while.

A loving uncle has many losers.
