MTL - Back To the Small Fishing Village In 1982-Chapter 51 Give the old lady dentures
Chapter 51 Give the old lady false teeth
Their village goes to the county seat and needs to wait for a bus on the side of the road. There are passing cars from the town to the county seat that can be stopped. It costs 15 cents per person, but the car is not easy to wait for.
"Grandma, you don't get carsick, do you?"
"No dizziness, no dizziness, no matter where I go!"
"That's good."
After waiting on the side of the road for more than an hour, they saw a bus coming, paid money, and bought tickets before sitting in their seats.
It is necessary to take the mountain road from the village to the county seat. At this time, there is no expressway, and the mountain road full of mud and stones will roll up the dust all over the sky. From the window, it is full of dust. Ye Yaodong is so hot that he dare not even open the window.
The 18th bend of the mountain road, people sitting in the car swayed left and right, so they could only hold on to the armrests beside the chairs, and drove around for almost an hour before reaching the main road.
Later generations have high-speed roads, and it only takes 15 minutes to travel from their village to the county seat. The traffic is not yet developed.
Fortunately, the old lady does not suffer from motion sickness, and her body is quite strong. Otherwise, at such an advanced age, he would not dare to take her out.
Along the way, he kept hearing someone vomiting in the back seat of the car.
After reaching the main road, he drove for another ten minutes before arriving at the station. He held down the old lady who was about to get up, "Don't worry, let the others get off the bus first."
The old lady smiled and narrowed her eyes, "Okay..."
The old lady moves slowly, so don’t be squeezed by other people. They are not in a hurry, and they would rather be the last one to get off.
The current county is not as big as later generations, and the surrounding villages are not included in the county, but it is still a county after all, not too small, and there is a long way from the station to the county hospital.
There are rickshaws for business at the entrance of the station. After all, the old lady is old. He was afraid that she would be tired after walking for too long, so he stopped one.
"Ah, do you still want to take this car? Let's walk by ourselves, save some money, don't waste money, I can walk..."
"It's okay, I'll help you up, we're not short of a dime, you're exhausted, and dad will kill me when you go back."
Along the way, the old lady was heartbroken, nagging: "Why do you have to work so hard and spend so much money? I'm already old. I can eat for a few days. It's not easy for you to earn some money." , just keep the flowers for yourself, I’m an old bone..."
It’s because I can’t eat it for a few years that I want to be filial to you...
"Are you thirsty, do you want to drink some water before talking?"
The old lady slapped him dumbfounded, "I'm talking to you, I'm not in shape yet, I know you are filial, but grandma really won't live for many years..."
"Oh, don't say bad words, I will be at the hospital soon, and it won't cost much."
She had no choice but to let him go, but she felt very good in her heart, feeling that her little grandson didn't hurt in vain.
After coming out of the hospital, it was already noon, and the old lady's removable dentures were also fitted.
Ye Yaodong finished what was on his mind, and he was in a good mood, "The doctor told you just now, do you remember? Wear it when you eat, and brush it off after eating. It's easy to wear, right? ?”
"I know, I know, I will, but these dentures are too troublesome. I used to brush them only once a day when I had teeth. I have to take off these dentures and brush them every now and then. I told you not to match them with me, but you still have to do them." ..."
"Well, now you can eat anything, even corn, and you like to eat peanuts. When the small piece of peanut you planted matures in August, you will have teeth to bite!"
The old lady smiled so hard that she couldn't see her teeth. She was happy to be able to eat what she liked, but, "Tell me honestly, how much did you pay for this denture?" Ask the doctor, but you still winked at him to keep him from talking. I still have some private money, so I will treat this as my own..."
"No, this is really not much money, it's already noon, are you hungry, do you want some noodles?" He quickly changed the subject.
"What kind of noodles are you eating? You can't waste money anymore. The things outside are so expensive. Let's go home and eat. It's only been an hour since we got home. I'm not hungry. Let's go home soon."
"Okay, let's go back now."
At this time, the county town looked dilapidated everywhere. It was not as prosperous as their town, and there was nothing to go shopping. It was not convenient for him to walk around with the old lady, and let the old lady watch him spend money. My heart aches.
He waved his hand and hailed a rickshaw to the station as usual.
The old lady knew that it was useless for her to say it, and Dongzi would not let her go that far, so she shut up this time too, so as not to be thirsty, and the water in the bamboo tube was almost exhausted.
Going back is the 18th bend of the mountain road. The old lady didn't walk much for most of the day, but she kept shaking in the car and didn't move her buttocks, so she would be tired.
After stepping on the ground, the old lady also breathed a sigh of relief, "It's better to be in our village now."
"Wait a minute, it's just on the side of the road. I'll go to the opposite field to break some corn and cook it for a while. You just have to nibble on it."
"Good good good..."
The old lady waited for him at the same place, and watched him pick and peel the skins, opened the hem of his clothes, put her arms in her arms, and went to the nearby melon field to pick two vegetable melons. I can eat it too."
"Hey...well...go home..."
At this time, it was already past the meal time, Mother Ye didn't know when they would come back, and didn't keep their meal, Ye Yaodong didn't know how to use an earthen stove, so the old lady came out and cooked gnocchi soup for them.
He hasn't eaten this stuff for many years. After his wife passed away, no one cooked it for him. The old lady specially put some razor clams, sea oysters, and dried shrimps. The soup is very delicious. He I was really hungry, and I ate everything, not even the soup.
Seeing that the old lady was eating deliciously and eating razor clams, he smiled and said, "Is the denture easy to use?"
"It's easy to use! It's easy to use!" The old lady said with a smile, "I can eat everything now."
"You don't think I'm a waste of money, do you?"
"I can't eat it for a few years..."
"Oh, why are you saying this again, eat quickly. Rest at home after eating well. I'm tired from the car all morning, so don't walk around. I'll go to the house to have a look."
"Hey, well... I'm just reciting scriptures at home, and I haven't read it today. Bodhisattva bless... Mazu bless..."
Hmm... These words are the old lady's catchphrase...
As soon as Ye Yaodong went out, the old lady stopped reciting scriptures, and went for a stroll at the door wearing her dentures, showing off, showing off her teeth to the neighbors whenever she met, smiling until her eyes were drawn into lines, saying that Dongzi took her Go to the city hospital to match her.
Pretended to complain, saying that she has half of her foot in the coffin, and she will not live for a few years. This silly child still insists on giving her dentures, which is a waste of money...
It wasn't until she heard that Ye Yaodong was praised for being filial, that she was blessed, that she showed a satisfied smile.
Walking around the village all afternoon, almost all the old ladies and old men in the village knew about it...
Then when it was time for dinner, the middle-aged people in the village also knew that the third child of the Ye family who was building a house was quite filial...
