Journey to the New South

Chapter 34: Delis has all kinds of amorous feelings, fat and infinite vitality

The carriage quickly ran forward, and Cixuan and his party talked and laughed. Two hours later, the gate of Dongzhi City appeared in front of them. After a simple inspection by the gate guard, the carriage pulled Cixuan and the three into Dongzhi City. The face of the city full of strong Boeo ethnic customs came into their eyes.

Sanlang, Feng Qi. Did you see it? The man over there is wearing a skirt! The clothes of these Boo people are really different from ours. The sleeves are narrow and the collar is very large. Women's clothes are embroidered, and men's clothes are also embroidered, which is really distinctive. Oh, there are a lot of men with earrings! Someone said it before, but I still don't believe it. I saw it today, and that's it!" Zao Dan looked at the bustling crowd and said in surprise.

"Gunmother. Big brother. There are so much strangeness in the world. Their house is also really distinctive. There are two-story buildings on both sides of the street. Look at the windows and doors, how exquisitely carved they are! It seems that most of them are stores, and the business is very good. Ci Xuan sighed.

"This Dongzhi City is really clean. This street is really flat and wide, without any dust. It looks like it's been washed. Look at the flowers and trees on both sides of the street that have been trimmed. The Nanyang trees over there are trimmed like umbrellas, which are really beautiful. Feng Qi said happily.

"Then our horse, don't pull horse manure on this clean street. Otherwise, we will definitely be punished." Ci Xuan said half jokingly.

Sanlang. We won't be so unlucky. Our horses must be popular. With the lesson of Suzhang Village, it will also have a long memory. Zaodan said quickly.

"Ganniang, Sanlang. Look, there seems to be something performing on the stage over there. There are really a lot of onlookers. Let's go and have a look. Feng Qi pointed to the platform next to the street not far away and said.

"The Burmese on the stand is performing acrobatics." Ci Xuan explained.

"Acrobatics, how wonderful and exciting it is. Let's go and watch it right away." Feng Qi said excitedly.

"I haven't seen acrobatics for a long time. There is no acrobatic troupe in Jingdong City. Zaodan said.

"Why is that?" Cixuan asked in surprise.

"It's not your godmother! Master Enbansen asked his godmother to blackmail around, and naturally he would not let go of the acrobatic troupe. As long as the godmother cries, any kind of acrobatics will be destroyed. Originally, it was a tightrope leg, but when I cried, I couldn't even walk. Zaodan explained.

"So that's it. Now that the godmother has left Jingdong City, the people of Jingdong City can see the acrobatics again. Ci Xuan said with a smile.

"That's natural. Sanlang and Feng Qi, one of you will transform and the other will be invisible. You two are also acrobatic, right? Zaodan laughed.

"Dang, where is the acrobatics? That should be called magic. I'm thinking that when we don't get entangled, Sanlang and I will set up a stage to perform magic to make money. Feng Qi said half jokingly.

"Good idea, it must be very attractive. However, we will become alive, and nothing else. Ci Xuan replied.

"In the point of becoming a living person, no magician in the world is as good as you." Zaodan said happily.

"It seems that we can't see the acrobatic performance. Did you hear that, godmother? The performer has announced the end of the performance. The crowd also began to disperse. Ci Xuan looked over there and said.

"What a pity! I don't know if there are any acrobatic performances over there? I see how many tables are there. What are they doing?" Zaodan said.

"Ganniang, there are circuses and song and dance operas on the stage over there. It's very lively! Let's go to the circus. If the monkey in the circus saw me, he would definitely think it was the same kind, and the performance must be harder. Feng Qi laughed.

"What's good about circus? It's not that I haven't seen it. Circuses everywhere are like that. Nothing new. Let's go to see the song and dance of the Boo people. That's something I haven't seen before. The circus can be watched later, but this Boo song and dance opera is the most correct in Dongzhi City. Zaodan said.

"Gunmother, I can't see the taste of it. Let's go to the circus." Feng Qi pleaded.

"Then I'll ask Sanlang. Sanlang, do you want to watch the circus or the song and dance? Zaodan asked Cixuan.

"Dang, if you and the eldest brother have a disagreement, it's not appropriate for me to say anything. I think it's better to go to the charity sale over there. Ci Xuan said as he pointed to the table in the distance.

"Sanlang, have you seen it clearly? Is it really a charity sale over there? Why do I feel like someone is performing kung fu?" Zaodan asked doubtfully.

"Yes, I saw it clearly. The banner on the table is written in Burmese. It's a foreign medicine charity sale. This performance is to attract people to watch. Ci Xuan explained.

Let's go and have a look. Westerners will study some novelty. Let's talk about the potion that erases the words without leaving traces, which is amazing. I think this Western medicine must also be extraordinary. I'm not in good health. Maybe I can buy some Western medicine. Feng Qi said quickly.

"Okay. Both godson said so. Can I, as a godmother, disagree? Go and have a look. Maybe you can still see Westerners. Zaodan finally agreed with Feng Qi.

The carriage soon pulled the three Cixuan to the table where the foreign medicine was sold. Cixuan and Zadan got out of the car, and Feng Qi rushed the carriage to the empty space and tied it. Then he squeezed into the crowd with Cixuan and Zao Dan. In front of the crowd, I saw a young man performing his fists on the stage. Although his martial arts were average, many people under the stage applauded. The scene was very warm.

"Good! Good kung fu!" The young man turned over ten heels in a row, causing greater cheers from the stage. The young man will take it as soon as it's good. He stood firm and said in Burmese with a fist at the audience under the stage, "I'm here to make a fool of myself, and it's also to cheer up the charity sale. Stupid, I have been sick since I was a child. It's not good to take many kinds of medicine. However, since I took the foreign medicine brought back from the West by Dr. Fat Laughing, I have not only recovered, but also practiced good martial arts. Western medicine is amazing! Stupid, I sincerely hope that the Western medicine of the doctor who is fat can benefit more people!" After saying that, he performed again.

Someone took the lead in cheering. Feng Qi asked Ci Xuan, "Sanlang, is what he said true? If it's true, I'll buy some foreign medicine for the doctor who is laughing. Ci Xuan replied, "This idiot. That's right, but he must be with Dr. Fat Laughing. It seems that he is a drug rag.

Feng Qi said to Ci Xuan and Zao Dan, "If this stupid is not procrastinated, then I really want to buy some Western medicine to test. If Western medicine can make my body stronger, I can also do more for Sanlang. Maybe this Western medicine can really take good care of my body.

Zodan said, "Feng Qi, you always say that you are not in good health. Godmother, I think you are really thin and weak, but I'm very energetic when I see you. I don't see you have a headache. Maybe you are born thin and weak, but in fact, there is nothing wrong with it.

"Gang, you don't know anything. I know my own body and bones. If the weather is sunny, like today. Then my body is normal. But at night or on rainy days, my body is really from the back of my head to the heel. They are all uncomfortable. Although it doesn't hurt too much, it's also very uncomfortable. I often can't sleep at night. I think that I have done too many sins before and got retribution. But it's not true. Those who have done more evil than me are not like me.

"Feng Qi, you are still sick. My godmother, I used to make a lot of sins, but I didn't have a body as bad as you. Don't think about evil. Let's watch the performance first and ask the fat smiling doctor to show you later. Maybe he can really cure your illness. Zaodan quickly comforted his godson.

"Do you think Dumb's performance is good? Is Ah Dai's body good?" A very special female voice came. Everyone looked at it and immediately screamed. It turned out that the speaker was a beautiful foreign girl!! This foreign girl is tall and graceful. She has white skin and wears a red Western dress. Blonde and blue-eyed, charming. He spoke fluently in Burmese.

"Okay, Dumb's performance is good, and Dumb's body is good." The crowd under the stage cheered. The blonde foreign girl smiled and said, "Although I have only been in Myanmar for a year, I love Myanmar very much. My name is Delis, and I come from far away England. My father is a famous doctor in London, and I inherited his career. I believe that God cares for all people. The smart Western medicine should be transmitted to the East. So, I'm here. Because I know that the East, which lacks doctors and medicine, needs me more than the West.

"Delis, Delis, you are really the goddess of salvation!" Many people are cheering under the stage. The woman named Delis motioned to be quiet with her hand, and then said, "Why did I come to Myanmar first? I'll tell everyone. This is God's will. Let me meet the outstanding Burmese in London, the pride of the Boou people in Dongzhi City, and the humorous fat Mr. Zaixiao. He went from Myanmar to Europe through India, and he went to London, my hometown. Become my father's apprentice. Also become my good friend. Mr. Zaixiao is very smart. In just a few years, he became a famous doctor proficient in Western medicine. He could have lived a good life in London, but he told me that he would return to Myanmar to contribute to his country. And I came with him with a beautiful yearning for the East.

"Fat is smiling, we admire you, Delis, we admire you." The mood of the people under the stage is even higher.

Delis smiled and said with a smile, "Mr. Xiao is an orphan. He doesn't know his last name or what it is. So he casually gave himself a lot of names. When my father saw his fat face and always full of smiles, he gave him a name called Fat Laughing. He returned to Myanmar a year ago, from Yangon in the south to the capital Awa. His medical skills and the foreign medicine he brought back saved too many people. Dumb is an example. He is Ava's young man. After being fat and cured by Dr. Xiao's physical illness, he came to Dongzhi with us.

"Good! Fat in laughter, the doctor's wonderful hands come back to spring, wonderful hands come back to spring!" The people under the stage cheered. Delis smiled and said, "Let's welcome our lovely fat doctor with the warmest applause!" Everyone applauds!"

When Deliss said this, the people under the stage cheered more enthusiastically. In the cheers of the crowd, a medium-sized, fat and smiling middle-aged man walked to the stage. He looks forty or fifty years old, wearing a black Western hat and a beard. Bright eyes are full of wisdom. The fat face has two lovely dimples. It's very beautiful. He wears Western clothes, with a black tuxedo and white trousers. There is a red bow around his neck. What a well-dressed and energetic fat doctor.

Dear friends. Thank you for your support and cheers. It really touched me. My name is Fat and Laughing. I am a Boo ethnic group in Dongzhi City. Ten years ago, I went to faraway Europe. He learned Western medicine in London, England. And I made friends with the lovely Delis, who is my teacher's daughter. When she knew that I was going back to Myanmar, she decided to come to Myanmar with me. I think Delis is the goddess sent to us by God and brought her to Myanmar. Fat said with a smile.

"We went from Europa to Mexico in the Americas, where we sailed through the extremely vast Pacific Ocean before returning to the Southern Ocean. We landed in the Philippines, then to Batavia, from there to Yangon, and finally returned to Myanmar, my country. The way back was all the way to the west, but we also returned to the east. That's because the earth we live in is a ball. Westerners call it the earth. Fat said with a smile.

"What? Where we live is a ball? How is that possible? Why didn't the person living under the ball fall? The first time they heard that the earth was a ball, the people asked in surprise.

"The land we live in is indeed a ball. This has been proved by many people, including my global travel. When you walk to the far east, you will go to the west, and when you walk to the far north, you will go to the south. Therefore, you can also reach the destination from the south to the north. And the earth is attractive and sucks people tightly on the ground, so we won't fall down. Fat said online.

"Yes, that's true. If you stand by the sea and see a ship coming from afar. Then you must see the sail first and then the hull. The earth is a round ball. But it's not a particularly regular ball, but an oval sphere. Delis explained in Burmese.

"But it has been said that it is a round place for thousands of years. Is it wrong?" Zadan is also very interested in this issue. I couldn't help asking in Burmese.

"Yes, it's wrong. This beautiful girl of the Sunder people. We Orientals have a lot of mistakes. I went to the West and opened my eyes. The knowledge and technology of Westerners have surpassed that of our East. They won't go wrong." Fat said with a smile.

"Gang, he is telling the truth. I also heard Western missionaries say this. Ci Xuan said to Zaodan.

"It's like this. The most amazing thing in the West is medicine. Their foreign medicine is very effective. Therefore, today we set up a charity sale of foreign medicine here, just to use this package of foreign medicine to cure all diseases to save people suffering from diseases. Fat is laughing. I can show the sick people on the spot and prescribe them on the spot. As long as you take this foreign medicine, it will work immediately. Fatty said loudly with a smile.

"Cough. Fat and smiling doctor, please help me. Cough, cough. It's been three years, cough. It has been three years. I kept coughing like this. Cough, cough, taking a lot of medicine doesn't work. I want to try foreign medicine. Cough, cough." A hunchbacked old man said with difficulty.

"Old man, do you feel phlegm in your throat, or salty?" Fat asked with a smile and kindly.

"Yes, that's the feeling. Cough, cough, it's always not good. Cough, cough." The hunchbacked old man replied.

"Then I recommend this medicine to you. This is a good Western medicine for cough. It's called cough stop. Take two boxes first to make sure they work well. You can try it now." Fat said with a smile, taking out two boxes of medicine from a steamed bun.

"Then I'll try it on the spot, cough, see if I can... cough... can make my three years of stubborn disease... cough, cough, make my cough stop." The hunchbacked old man said.

"Old man, take this medicine and take two tablets first. Delis, pour a glass of water for the old man. Fat bent down with a smile and handed two white pills to the hunchbacked old man. Then she handed the glass of water brought by Delis to the hunchbacked old man.

The coughing hunchbacked old man took the medicine and drank the water. He touched his chest and opened his mouth. There doesn't seem to be a cough. The hunchbacked old man said excitedly, "It's amazing. I feel so comfortable in my chest. Although my throat is still a little tight, I can't cough. It seems that I will eat a few more times. How much is it?"

"Old man. This medicine is absolutely good. The effect of eating this time is obvious. In order to consolidate the effect, thoroughly treat your disease. I think you'd better take ten boxes. Usually, ten boxes cost two taels of silver. Today's charity sale, you are so old. You can give ten boxes of silver. Take it back and eat it three times a day, two tablets at a time. Be sure to remember it. Fat said with a smile.

"Thank you so much. One taels of silver can cure my illness. I bought it. Thank you so much. Look, I don't cough anymore. I feel better and better. The hunchbacked old man said excitedly. Then he handed in a taels of silver, took ten boxes of medicine and left.

"My son's nickname is Feng Ke. As soon as I see the wind, I keep coughing. Does this medicine work well? A middle-aged woman said.

"Of course. You can buy him ten boxes to use first. It will definitely work. It's also ten boxes of silver. Delis said quickly.

"Then I have to buy it for him and give you a taels of silver. Give me the medicine." The middle-aged woman said.

"Okay, take it back and let your son eat it three times a day. Two pieces at a time. It will be fine soon." Delis handed the medicine to the middle-aged woman. I took a taels of silver. The middle-aged woman hurriedly left with medicine.

"I'll buy it too, I'll buy it too." Onlookers completely believed in the efficacy of the medicine and took out money to buy it. The fat smiling face is even brighter.

Zaodan said regretfully, "My dead son, who was initially ill, also had a bad cough. If he could buy this Western medicine at that time, he would not have died.

Ci Xuan quickly comforted, "Gang. Don't be sad about the past. Although you don't have a son now, you have two sons. We will honor you on behalf of your son.

Feng Qi said, "Dang, everyone has their own misfortune. There are so many misfortunes for people with status like Sanlang. Like me and this fat laughing doctor, I have been orphans since childhood and have a rough life. Fortunately, the three of us are together now. Care for each other and be considerate of each other. How nice."

Ci Xuan said, "Gang, don't look sad. This is not beautiful. Just now, the fat laughing doctor said that the godmother was beautiful.

Feng Qi said with a smile, "Gang, look, the fat doctor is looking at you!"

Zaodan looked up and saw that it was true. The fat doctor was looking at Zaodan affectionately. His eyes made Zaodan feel very shy.
