Dreaming of 1988, I have the ability to see ghosts and ghosts

When I passed by Hu Shuangyue's house again, I couldn't help but take two more glances. The yin energy in her house was indeed very heavy.

We returned to Wang Fang's home. Wang Fang's mother was not at home. She must have gone out to do some business or to work in the fields.

Wang Fang and I said goodbye and agreed to go to town and go shopping before the New Year.

When I got home, I told my grandma about having lunch at Wang Fang's house. She was very happy to know that I had a friend.

"When you have time, ask your classmate Wang Fang to come over to my house and I'll make delicious food for you."

"Grandma, her mother knows you!" I said.

"In those years, I have been a fortune teller for many families in the surrounding villages. Many people do know me. After so many years, it is not surprising that they remember me. As for me, I am old now and my memory is not good. I am afraid that I will remember it when I see people."

Grandma coughed twice.

"Grandma, are you cold?" I asked with concern.

"It's okay, it's okay. I've already drunk some ginger soup. I'll be fine after a good night's sleep."

Grandma said while coughing.

Over the years, whenever my grandmother had a headache or fever, she would drink some ginger soup or pick some herbs to boil and drink, and she would get through it.

She was always reluctant to spend a penny more and saved every penny for me.

I felt very distressed, so when she wasn't paying attention, I secretly took some change from the cash box and walked out.

"Feng'er, what are you doing? Why aren't you doing your homework at home?"

Grandma said with a hint of reproach.

"I don't know how to solve a problem. Let me ask Brother Erming."

I lied and hurried to the village clinic next to the village committee to buy medicine for my grandma.

When I first arrived at the village committee, I saw that the infirmary was crowded with people. There was a person lying on a small bed inside. Doctor Huang from the infirmary was looking at the person's eyes.

There was a man in his 30s standing outside the door, waiting anxiously, and there was a woman in her 50s sitting on the ground crying loudly.

"I just said a few words to you and hit you a few times, why are you so upset? Doctor Huang, you must save my daughter-in-law!

If she really leaves like this, what will happen to my two grandchildren? Also, her family members won’t let it go.”

I didn't understand what he meant. There was only Dr. Huang in the village clinic and she was busy, so I could only wait at the door.

"Xiao Zhou, do you know what kind of drink she had, how much she drank, and how long she had been drinking?"

At this time, Dr. Huang walked to the door and asked the man at the door with a serious face.

"Di, Dichlorvos, I don't know how much I drank, it should have been 20 minutes now."

The man's tongue trembled as he spoke.

"Alas, I don't think he can be saved. You should take him to the hospital in town."

After hearing this, I roughly understood what happened in this family. Either the couple had a quarrel, or the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had a quarrel, the man beat the woman, and the woman drank pesticide in anger.

This was a common occurrence in rural areas in the 1980s and 1990s, and because medical care was limited at the time, many people died as a result.

"Uncle, please find a car and take him to the town hospital as quickly as possible. Wash his stomach and he should be able to be saved."

Seeing the man standing there in a daze, I couldn't bear to watch it anymore and took a look inside.

The woman lying inside did not show any signs of her soul leaving her body, so I reminded her.

"Yes, hurry up. The Zheng family next door has a tractor. Go borrow it and send it to the town."

After hearing what I said, Dr. Huang seemed to understand.

"I don't know how to drive." The man looked distressed.

"I'll go, ask Lao Zheng to take it there, and we'll pay for it."

The old lady sitting on the ground reacted and ran to the side quickly.

After a while, a man in his 50s drove over in a tractor. This kind of vehicle was rare in that era, and only a few families in a village had one.

They lifted the patient and the mattress from Dr. Huang's clinic into the tractor's trailer, thanked Dr. Huang, and drove to the town clinic.

It should take 20 minutes to get to the town clinic from here at the speed of this tractor. I hope the patient can be saved, I thought, as I watched them go away.

"Little girl, what are you doing in the infirmary?"

Doctor Huang asked me when he saw me standing there in a daze.

"Oh, Dr. Huang, I'm here to buy medicine for grandma."

I came to my senses and followed Dr. Huang into the infirmary.

"Little girl, where are you from?" asked Doctor Huang.

"I am the granddaughter of Xu Zhenxiang from Team 6."

"Oh, your name is Liu Feng, right? How did you know that the aunt who drank pesticides could be saved by gastric lavage?"

Dr. Huang was probably in his 40s, very kind, and asked me with a smile.

"I've read it in books and on TV," I replied.

"Yeah, not bad, the little girl is good."

I told Dr. Huang about my grandmother's symptoms, and she prescribed some medicine for her. I took the medicine and went back.

When I got home, I told my grandma to take her medicine.

"Hey, Feng'er, grandma, just drink some ginger and sugar water, she will be fine in a few days. Why are you still running to buy medicine? What a waste of money."

Grandma took medicine and scolded me with a smile.

"It's okay, grandma, don't worry about money. Health is important. Don't always bear the burden of illness. I can earn money to support myself in the future.

When I finish junior high school, I will go out to earn money during the holidays, mainly because I am still too young now. "

I smiled and said that too.

"You silly girl, who asked you to earn money to support yourself?"

Grandma's wrinkled face was filled with a smile of relief.

Because the Chinese New Year was approaching and the weather was cold, my grandmother stayed at home most of the time except for chopping wood. I spent a week finishing my winter vacation homework.

The next morning after I finished my homework, Wang Fang came to see me, riding a small curved bicycle with no crossbar in the middle.

When she got home, she greeted her grandmother, who enthusiastically took out peanuts to treat her.

"Liu Feng, look at this second-hand bicycle my dad bought for me. He spent 150 yuan on it. I heard a new one would cost more than 300 yuan."

Wang Fang was very happy and pulled me to admire her beautiful bicycle.

"Not bad, I think this car is about 90% new, it's a good deal."

I looked at the color of the car and said.

"I heard they were stolen from the city and sold."

Wang Fang whispered to me.

I looked at her in surprise and wanted to say something, but she stopped me.

"Come on, Liu Feng, I'll take you to town."

She patted the back seat of the bicycle and motioned for me to sit on it.

"Will you not carry anyone?"

I doubt her driving skills.

"Don't worry, I learned to ride a bike in the third grade using my dad's 28-inch bicycle." She looked confident.

For kids in that era, riding a 28-inch bicycle would actually involve stretching one foot from the middle of the frame to the pedal on the other side, and then pedaling half a turn in the empty space in the middle.

I can ride one, but my family doesn't have a bicycle. In this era, I have never learned how to ride one. I am embarrassed to show it in front of others, or it would be difficult to explain.

So my grandma gave me some money, and Wang Fang gave me a ride, wobbling along, to the town.

We bought some school supplies and returned to my house. Grandma had prepared dinner and after we finished eating, Wang Fang went home.
