Chapter 73: Holding together to hide
Alan's mother stayed at home to take care of Alan, and Alan's father sent Wenrou and Wenwen's grandfather and grandmother back to Lingshui.

After arriving in Lingshui, they returned the collected medicinal materials to Grandpa Wen's house. Wenrou took Abei to get a haircut, take a bath, and buy clothes.

The messy long hair was washed and cut into a boyish short haircut. Even the barber marveled at the boy's beauty.

"Okay, let's go buy clothes, then take a shower, and then apply for household registration."

Abe looked at himself in the mirror and nodded happily.

As a county-level city and medicinal materials distribution center, Lingshui still has some business atmosphere.

There are many clothing stores on the street, including local ethnic traditional clothing stores, and more modern clothing stores.

Wenrou chose two sets of clothes for Abe, one with long sleeves and one with short sleeves.

Two pairs of shoes, socks, underwear...

I won’t buy too many clothes for the time being. I can buy a few more sets when I get home. As long as I can change and wash them now.

People in the village said that Abe was fifteen years old, but Abe was only about 1.5 meters tall, which was much shorter than Wenrou.

Nowadays, teenagers in cities develop early, and most of them have already grown up by the age of 15.

Abe lives in the mountains and eats a lot of natural food. He has less hormones and his delayed development should be normal.

"Let's not put on the new clothes yet. We will take a shower later. After washing, you can put on new clothes and the old clothes can be thrown away." Wenrou told Abe.

After buying clothes, Wenrou found a luggage store and bought a sports backpack for Abe to carry. She also bought two suitcases, one to hold clothes for two people and one to hold medicinal materials.

Wenrou suddenly felt like she was in the Western Heavens seeking Buddhist scriptures, and her luggage was getting more and more. In the past, she only had a backpack for herself, but now there was one more person, and she had to pull two suitcases.

There is a bathing center on the street. Many medicinal herb owners come in and out.

Wenrou thought for a while and moved to a smaller bathhouse that was dedicated to bathing. She asked Abe for a private room and asked him to clean himself.

Abe came out of the bath and put on new clothes, sports pants and a clean white T-shirt. A handsome and beautiful boy suddenly appeared in front of his eyes. The front desk of the bathhouse praised the child for his good looks.

"Okay, this time you can apply for household registration and take a handsome ID photo."

Abe grinned, as bright as the sun.

Wen Judao: "Throw away all your old clothes and bags."

Abe threw away his old school bag and clothes, but still kept one item in his hand.

When Wenrou saw that it was a local Tujia men's jacket with very delicate embroidery, she asked, "Did grandma make it?"

Abe nodded.

Wen Ju said: "Put it in your backpack."

Abe put away his clothes, put on his bag, and looked at Wenrou seriously.

Wenrou smiled: "Let's go and apply for household registration."

In the Lingshui Administrative Service Hall, Wenrou placed the certificate issued by Jiulong Village on the table.

The staff who handled the household registration were not surprised: "It's another parent who doesn't register his children. What are you parents thinking?" Wenrou: "His parents went to work in the big city, and he followed his grandma, and now his grandma is dead. . His father refuses to take him to a big city and doesn’t want to raise him. I want to apply for a separate household registration for him and take him to my house. My father has no son, so I just want to raise him as a son."

The staff looked at Wenrou and confirmed that Wenrou's family could definitely afford to raise the child. After all, her daughter could eat so fat, so there should be no shortage of food for the child in the family.

"This doesn't work. A minor cannot apply for a household registration alone. His household registration must be recorded in his family's household registration. His father must come over to register for him, and then handle the household registration transfer and transfer the household registration to your home."

"His father will not come back to apply for a household registration for him. On the day his grandma was buried, his father returned to the city and didn't even leave him living expenses. I asked his father to come back and take him away, but his father said to let him live on his own. Plant the fields in the countryside and pick wild fruits to eat.”

The staff couldn't help but cursed: "What kind of father is this? It's so outrageous! But we don't have the authority to open an account for him alone. He is a minor."

Wenrou knew it was useless to embarrass the staff, so she took Abe away first and then think of a solution.

The household registration must be done for Abe, otherwise he won't be able to get on the bus when he goes out.

Grandpa Wen is treating the patients who come to his home at home, while Grandma Wen is treating Gouma.

Thanks to Grandma Wen and Grandma for handling these medicines.

Wenrou told Mr. Wen what the household registration staff said, and Mr. Wen thought: "I know a few people who are in charge of household registration, but they have to follow the rules. People really can't do it at will. You guys stay here first, and I'll think about it later." Think of a way, it will take a few days to process these herbs.”

Wenrou had no choice but to thank Mr. Wen and take Abe to tidy up the room first.

In the evening, Mr. Wen called the household registration officer he knew. The reply was the same. Abe's parents must first register for him before moving out. Minors cannot apply for a household registration alone.

Grandpa Wen called Abe's father again. Of course, Abe's father also went to see Abe for medical treatment, but his father said that he really didn't have time to come back now. It had already taken several days to arrange the funeral for Grandma Abe. Time, no more time off.

If it didn't work out, Wenrou made plans to take Abe with her in a taxi. Anyway, she had agreed to take Abe with her, so she couldn't leave him alone.

The next day, many villagers suddenly came to Jiulong's house.

Grandpa Wen didn't understand for a moment. He had stayed in Jiulong for several days and just left yesterday. How did these villagers think of him like this?
"Master Wen, please save the people in our village, save our family!" the leader of the family begged.

Grandpa Wen said: "Of course I will try my best to save everyone. Have you encountered any big problems?"

The villagers talked a lot.

Wenrou listened for a while and finally understood. It turned out that more than half of the people in this village had Qi Xian in their bodies, and Grandma Abe was not the first person to die from mushrooms.

Before they went to Jiulong, several people died because of mushrooms growing all over their bodies.

But the witch in the village said that outsiders cannot know about this disease, otherwise the whole village will grow mushrooms. This is a punishment from the true God. If outsiders are not told, only one out of ten people in the village will grow mushrooms and die, and the others will be fine. .

So they didn't dare to tell Grandpa Wen.

The villagers are waiting for the unlucky tenth to grow mushrooms and die, and then they will be safe.

But later, more and more people showed early symptoms of mushroom growth. It has exceeded one in ten, and it is still growing.

This kind of thing where the whole village unites to hide the truth, naturally does not include Abe.

Abe is a fool and no one treats him as a normal person.

So when Grandma Abe died, Abe immediately went to see Grandpa Wen, and people outside the village finally knew about the mushrooms.
