Rural Chinese Medicine Li Maoyang

Chapter 184

After dinner, Li Maoyang took Li Canyang and his father to pack up the purchased medicinal materials.

Alia also came to help. She said she wanted to identify the medicinal materials, and Li Maoyang let her participate.

Then Li Ma also came to participate, just to have a few words with Alia.

Now Dad Li is driving a pickup truck to go around the village to transfer households, collect what medicinal materials he sees, and then come back to sort them out, do a little processing and store them.

Among the medicinal materials recovered now, there are many kinds of medicinal materials such as dodder, licorice, reed root, cricket cricket, etc., and many of them have been stored in the two warehouses.

These medicinal materials are not all to be resold to pharmaceutical companies, some are to be kept by Li Maoyang for his own clinic.

However, Li Maoyang had to keep accounts for these medicinal materials, which were divided into two books, one for the medicinal materials to be resold to the pharmaceutical company, and the other for the medicinal materials to be used in his clinic.

He had already submitted the medicinal material report to Bilig's Kangzhong Pharmaceutical Company yesterday, and he was waiting for the pharmaceutical company to collect his medicinal materials for the first time.

After packing up the herbs, Li's father took Li Maoyang aside: "Your uncle called, and his grandmother (mother-in-law) is gone, please call our house."

"Okay, I'll go." Li Maoyang nodded.

His uncle's family and his uncle's grandmother's family are both in Liuyuan County on the other side of the Yellow River, not far from here, and it takes more than an hour to ride a motorcycle.

Ordinarily, his father should be responsible for this matter, but because of the support of his grandparents, his parents and uncles and aunts made it very unpleasant.

According to the customs of the rural people here in Hetao, parents give all their savings to their sons, and the sons should bear most of the burden of supporting their parents.

However, when his uncle's family was supporting his grandparents, all kinds of moths came out, and they asked their family to share all kinds of expenses for supporting the elderly. Later, before the two old people died, the bills spent in the hospital were shared equally by the two families. .

So after his grandparents passed away, their family basically lost contact with his uncle's family.

This time, his uncle and mother did not leave, and invited him to his house. His father was afraid that his mother would nag him, and he felt that it would be unfair not to go, so he could only let him do it for him.

"Don't tell your mother about this." Father Li looked at his son and said, "People can't hold it in summer, and the ice coffin is expensive. If you leave it there for three days, your spirit will come out. You go tomorrow night, and the next morning. People can come back after sending them out.”

Li Maoyang nodded.

"Also, don't say anything to your two cousins ​​when you go, and be careful of any conflicts." Father Li warned again worriedly.

"I know." Li Maoyang nodded again.

"It's easy for a living person to deal with other things, and I know you're very busy, but this human thing can't be avoided, alas..."

"It's okay, it's just a matter of one night and one morning. I can spare time now." Li Maoyang comforted his father.

"When you go, remember to wear a red shirt underneath."

"Oh, I see."

In this way, Li Maoyang had a busy day the next day, and at five o'clock in the afternoon, he crossed the Yellow River on his motorcycle and went to Liuyuan County.

Before leaving, Li Canyang graciously let him wear his watch, so as to save face in front of others.

Li Maoyang resigned with a sneer: "It's fake for the poor to wear a real watch, and it's true for the rich to wear a fake watch. Besides, if I go to this kind of stall, it's just to save face for my uncle and his family. Hate the poor and love the rich?"

However, having said that, Li Maoyang was still quite depressed when it came to the funeral of his uncle and grandmother.

Although the road is not far away, he hasn't been to his uncle's house for two or three years.

I always feel that his uncle's family is more snobbish.

In addition, Li Maoyang was once a crooked melon in the eyes of his relatives, and he didn't even go to college, and his uncle's two cousins ​​were both studying in Qingcheng, so this made him go to his uncle's house. Home is easy to be underestimated.

And the reason why his parents haven't had much contact with his uncle's family in the past few years, apart from some conflicts, is actually related to his son, Li Maoyang, not showing them face. I feel more and more that his son can't do anything.

Li Maoyang himself is a fool, but he is not stupid, and in fact he has a lot of eyes, how can he not appreciate the warmth and coldness of these people, so he doesn't like to go to his uncle's house whenever he comes and goes.

……

Across the river, the two sides actually belong to different regions.

The south bank of the Yellow River belongs to Hang County, E City, and the north bank of the Yellow River belongs to Liuyuan County, Ba City.

After crossing the Yellow River, it is obvious that the scenes on both sides of the river are somewhat different.

On the north bank of the Yellow River, because it is closer to Liuyuan County, the villages are denser than those on the south bank of the river, and the houses look better than those on the south bank of the Yellow River.

Of course, the villagers are more savvy than those on the south bank of the Yellow River.

Therefore, the villagers on the north bank of the Yellow River actually somewhat look down on the villagers on the south bank of the Yellow River. In their eyes, the villagers on the south bank of the Yellow River are just bumpkins.

This is a bit like the people in Xiangdao and Treasure Island in the past who looked down on people from the mainland.

"Hey, Liu Jingjiang, are you all at your uncle's house?"

Li Maoyang went directly to the village where his uncle's eldest brother-in-law's Gao family (that is, his cousin's uncle's home) was located, bought some offerings such as hemp paper incense sticks, apple biscuits, etc. at the small shop in the village, and then called his second cousin Liu Jingjiang. The phone said.

It would be embarrassing if no one recognized him.

And this Liu Jingjiang was only two months older than him, and that big cousin Liu Jinghai was only one year older than the two of them, so Li Maoyang never bothered to call them "brother", and always called them both by their first names and surnames like this.

"It's all here, come here." Liu Jingjiang's voice came from the microphone.

Not to mention enthusiastic, it seems that there is still a bookish anger.

Maybe it's because Li Maoyang didn't go to college himself, so he is very sensitive to this kind of bookishness.

Although he was talking normally, he felt that he was bookish when he heard it.

This may also be considered a disease, a heart disease.

Li Maoyang himself sometimes felt that he was too hypocritical, but he couldn't change it.

Maybe it will change after many years.

He rode a motorcycle to Gao's house following the sound of mourning. From a distance, he saw the coffin and the temporary kitchen, dining hall and dormitory supported by three large trucks.

Now all the rural people in their area use this thing to do red and white things. The temporary canteen and dormitory are not small and convenient.

When he came near the coffin, there was a burst of sorrow and joy. On the coffin was hung the portrait of his uncle, laowai, and mother, a kind old lady.

However, Li Maoyang was not familiar with the old lady, so he couldn't talk about the slightest sadness, and only the depressing sense of dullness in the ordinary affairs appeared in his heart.

Well, he thought too much in advance, this kind of scene does not need to be known, but all the people who come are relatives and friends.

Just leave your name on the gift account at that time.

As for the present, as soon as you get to the coffin shed, there will be filial sons and grandsons in white filial robes coming to kowtow to welcome you.

It is said that this is to exonerate the elderly.

Immediately, Li Maoyang remained indifferent, entered the coffin shed, kowtowed to the old lady's coffin, and then the filial sons and grandsons in white clothes on both sides kowtowed to you again.

Although there are still more filial sons and virtuous grandchildren on both sides, no one cried.

The old lady is also over 80 years old this year, which can also be called "happy mourning" in rural areas.

After standing up, Li Maoyang nodded slightly to his uncle, aunt and two cousins ​​as a greeting.

Greetings are not allowed on such trivial matters in their area, so a nod is enough.

After leaving the coffin shed, Li Maoyang's two well-mannered cousins, Liu Jinghai and Liu Jingjiang, came over to talk to him, politely asked why his uncle and aunt didn't come, and Li Maoyang said he was busy.

Liu Jingjiang led him to the temporary cafeteria. It was time to eat, and the cafeteria was full of people.

Li Maoyang didn't talk too much, so he found a place to sit down and ate a piece of sheep bone.

He didn't know many people in this place, so he didn't need to say hello or anything, which was easy.

But what he didn't expect was that while he was eating sheep bones, he heard someone talking about him, saying that there was a little genius doctor in the south of the river, and he cured several serious patients. His name was Li Maoyang, and he was only [-] years old. Just in the early days.

Hey, I didn't expect his name to spread to the north bank of the Yellow River. Interesting!
Li Maoyang immediately gnawed on the bones and became more elegant. He was called a little genius doctor, so we have to show some face.
