Chapter 571 Doctor Zhao at the End of the Village
"But Dr. Zhao rarely goes out and doesn't participate in many activities in the village."
Liang Yi raised his hand and grabbed a handful of hair, looking a little anxious.
Before Gu Chaoxi could ask anything else, he heard someone shouting from inside the house: "Liang Yi, what are you wasting time on? Hurry back and cook!"
It's time for lunch.
Gu Chaoxi raised her eyebrows. It was already time for lunch, but she felt like she hadn't done anything yet.
"I guess we should go back for dinner too."
Shen Yao turned his head and looked, and saw smoke rising from the roofs of several houses.
"Let's go back and eat first, and talk about it in the afternoon." Pei Yan patted Gu Chaoxi on the back.
She nodded, watched Liang Yi walk into the house covered in dust, and then shifted her gaze elsewhere.
I touched my stomach and realized that I really needed to eat.
When Gu Chaoxi returned home, the woman had already put the food on the table. When she saw her coming in from the door, she snorted in annoyance.
She was now familiar with the place and not afraid anymore. She sat down on the stool and started picking up food with chopsticks.
The old lady went into the kitchen to get something, and when she came out and saw that she had already eaten, she became even more angry.
"Luo Fangfang!"
"Yes, I am. I'm not deaf. Why are you speaking so loudly?"
As Gu Chaoxi spoke, he raised his hand to pick his ears and looked at the old lady with a smile.
The old lady was speechless.
"Other kids know how to help make offerings, but you're the only one running outside every day."
"Hey, you can't say that nonsense!"
Gu Chaoxi glared. She was with everyone when she was outside just now.
How could she be allowed to run around outside alone? It was obvious that everyone was running around outside together.
Moreover.
"Besides, I have you at home. I feel relieved about your tribute."
"What if the Dragon God doesn't like my mediocre skills?"
As he spoke, he stretched out his chopsticks and picked up another piece of food from the plate.
The old lady cursed as she ate with her chopsticks, but she didn't refute what she had just said.
Luo Fangfang is a spoiled girl who is fearless. It is very difficult to get her into the kitchen.
After dinner, Gu Chaoxi didn't even clean up the dishes. He went straight back to his room and lay comfortably on the bed.
The old lady was so angry that she yelled at her in the living room, but she pretended not to hear anything. She turned over, covered herself with the quilt and went to sleep.
When I woke up, the house was quiet.
When he sat up from the bed, Gu Chaoxi yawned.
After a while, he slowly got out of bed, walked to the backyard, and washed his face with pressed water.
The old lady was sitting in the backyard, washing something.
Gu Chaoxi leaned over to take a look and saw that they were all unknown leaves, lush green on the front and a little red on the back.
The old lady washed vigorously, muttering to herself.
She ignored it, shook the water off her hands, and walked out of the house.
When I came out of the house, there was not many people outside and the sun seemed to be still at its strongest.
Gu Chaoxi thought about it, then walked towards the end of the village, passing by the houses where several people were.
But everyone was called to prepare tributes and couldn't join her now.
But it doesn’t matter. Gu Chaoxi is very good at accepting the current situation.
After walking around, only Pei Yan was a little leisurely. He immediately followed her out after finishing the things in his hands.
He was just drying some washed leaves at the door. Those leaves would be crushed and made into cakes.
I don’t know whether the pastries made from these leaves are delicious, but since they are tributes, who cares?
"Since you are the only one free, Ayan."
As she spoke, she bent down, picked up a straight-looking stick from the ground, and waved her arm towards the weeds beside her.
At this moment, several weeds were broken.
“Wow, that works!”
No wonder so many people like to play with these straight branches, it’s really fun.
As Gu Chaoxi walked, he poked here and there with a branch.
When the two of them walked to the end of the village, they saw the house of Dr. Zhao that Liang Yi had mentioned.
It’s actually not difficult to recognize.
Liang Yi had said before that Dr. Zhao was not from their village, so in some customs, he must be different from the locals like them.
For example, the open space that belonged to him at the door was surrounded by a fence and there was a fence gate.
This sense of territorial awareness is too strong, as can be seen from the comparison with Xianxi Village.
The fence gate was open, and the main gate inside was also open, so it was obvious that people could enter at this time.
The two looked at each other, Gu Chaoxi leaned the branch against the side of the fence door, and walked in with Pei Yan.
When the door is open, you can see the things in the living room: a few tables, a few simple beds, and a cabinet on one side.
It looks no different from a small department.
On the bed on one side of the living room, a man in black clothes was lying and resting.
Hearing the sound outside, he first looked outside to confirm who was coming, then slowly sat up from the bed.
Doctor Zhao doesn't look young, probably around forty years old.
Perhaps because he does not need to work in the fields for a long time, Dr. Zhao's skin looks better than others and he looks younger.
"What's wrong with you guys?"
He sat on the edge of the bed and didn't get up.
Gu Chaoxi walked in, first looked around, then looked at the man with a smile.
"Doctor Zhao, Xiuxiu said she had trouble sleeping these past two days and wanted me to get her some sleeping aid from you."
Doctor Zhao raised his eyes, as if trying to determine the truth in these words.
However, Gu Chaoxi looked sincere and well-behaved, and it didn't look like he was lying.
He then slowly stood up from the bed and walked to the cabinet beside him.
"Maybe she has a fever. Just clear it up. How can a young girl suffer from insomnia?"
While muttering, he took out a small bottle from the cabinet.
Gu Chaoxi took the opportunity to move closer and carefully smelled the smell coming from the cabinet.
Apart from the smell of medicine, she didn't seem to smell any fragrant smell.
However, there are rooms on both sides of the house, and there may be other cabinets filled with things in the rooms, but they can't go in and take a look openly.
Doctor Zhao took the medicine but was not in a hurry to give it.
"Why doesn't Xiuxiu come and get it herself?"
Gu Chaoxi looked at him in surprise: "Doctor Zhao, don't you know that Xiuxiu can't go out casually these days, otherwise we will provoke the Dragon God and we will all suffer."
"Oh, this." He suddenly realized, stuffed the thing into Gu Zhaoxi's hand, and waved his hand: "Here's the medicine for you, just mix it with water and drink it."
"Okay, thank you, Dr. Zhao."
She winked at Pei Yan, and they went out together again.
While she was talking to Dr. Zhao just now, Pei Yan took the opportunity to take a close look around the room.
