A good time for farming through the ages

Chapter 26 [026] Father Enters the City

Father's generation was really more miserable than them!
As if mentioning his sister, his father's eyes dimmed.

"Your grandma gave birth to six children. I am the youngest, and your uncle is the third. We have an older brother and a younger sister, and a younger sister. It's a pity that we didn't support them. A cold can kill them all." , my family is poor, and I can’t go to the hospital, and I use local medicine and local methods to treat it. If I can survive, I will be lucky.”

Zhuo Lin was deeply touched by this. Her grandma once mentioned that at that time, her family was poor and could not afford medical care. Hospitals were only available in cities, and it was difficult for rural people to see a doctor. Many people, in order to save money, Just go to see the witch, find folk remedies, and delay the death of the child, everywhere.

It doesn't matter whether human life is worthless or cheap, in fact, it is still poor, people can't eat enough, how can there be money to see a doctor?

In addition to food, it is difficult for ordinary people to have the opportunity to touch money, but seeing patients do not accept food or local products you get, they want money, how can they treat them without money?
Another is that there are some emergencies, and before you are sent to the hospital, the person will be gone.

Even if it is not an emergency, from the village to the countryside and then to the city, in the era when there were no cars and bicycles, all rely on rickshaws, like the kind of ox carts, horse carts, donkey carts, which you can borrow if you want, so delaying the illness There are many factors, so children are not the only ones who die due to minor illnesses in this era, adults are also the same.

A few days later, my father took over a job and wanted to go to the city to make furniture for others. The owner said that the food and housing would be calculated not on a daily basis, but on a piece-by-piece basis, so I don’t know this yet. How much can one trip make, but considering the family situation, my father entered the city with a carpenter from the same village without hesitation.

After the father left, the eldest brother, the second brother and the third brother wanted to go to the mountain to continue digging the ears, but the uncle was worried and refused to let them go, and the mother also complained that it was not safe.

You can still go when your father is around. If your father is not around, you have to spend the night in the mountains. side.

Fortunately, leeks are already edible, and all the vegetables planted have sprouted. Zhuo Lin finds a cabbage, a radish, or a peanut from time to time. The toon tree can be eaten every few days. It was Zhuo Lin who saw the toon tree somewhere, took advantage of her brothers not paying attention, gave birth to it herself, and then asked her brothers to pick it off.

Some of these trees have owners, and some have no owners. There are many leaves that can be eaten in spring. The strength of the hand is no longer as weak as it used to be, and it will cause dizziness with a little force. It can be seen that this ability also needs to be exercised.

Other people's leeks can take several days to distribute, but their leeks, as long as she wants to eat, can be distributed in a day, haha, but in order not to be obvious, she only dares to distribute them once every two or three days.

When I thought that the situation at home was much better than the previous days, Zhuo Jian developed a high fever after the rain in Qingming.

Mrs. Wang didn't sleep all night, and kept wiping his body to cool down, which may not have much effect. After living until the next day, his aunt frowned and said, "Juan'er, I see It’s not going to work like this, let’s go to the health center, if it turns into pneumonia, it’s over!”

This night, Zhuo Lin didn't fall asleep because she was nervous about her younger brother. She just watched it dryly all night, never thinking that she might have a turning point?
