Chapter 28 Medication
Xu Laosan ran back soon and said anxiously, "The doctor is not at home. He said that he went out for treatment, and I don't know when he will come back."
Xu Xinger's eyes were closed and her cheeks were red. She pressed her two quilts and she couldn't sweat. Her body was so hot that she began to talk nonsense again, and her hands and feet twitched from time to time.
"Xing'er? Wake up and look at your mother." Ye was so anxious that she couldn't even cry. She turned around the edge of the kang and called her daughter a few times from time to time.
Shanzi lay on the kang in the west room but couldn't sleep. Suddenly, he remembered a local method, got up, pulled his shoes and went out and said, "Uncle, aunt, I think of a way. Is there any green onions and brown sugar at home? I need some rice wine."
"Yes, there are." Ye didn't hear what he wanted, so he answered down first, and then said, "If you don't have it, let your third uncle go out to buy it."
Xu Laosan hurried out to buy rice wine. Shanzi went to the field and pulled out seven green onions. After peeling, he only left the green onions white, washed them and put them in a large bowl, and added two spoonfuls of brown sugar.
After buying the rice wine, boil it in the pot, pour it into a bowl with green onion white and brown sugar, put it on a large plate, and bring it in after a while, and let Ye feed it to Xu Xinger to drink.
Unexpectedly, Xu Xinger clenched her teeth and couldn't feed anything in, which made Ye sweat profusely.
Seeing this, Shanzi couldn't take much care of it. She went forward and pinched Xu Xinger's nose. When she couldn't hold her breath, she raised her hand and poured rice wine in one breath.
Xu Xinger was choked and coughed, but at least she drank most of it.
Ye stuffed him back into the quilt, turned his head and said gratefully to Shanzi, "Shanzi, thanks to you, you can also go and have a rest. Your aunt is watching here. It's okay."
Shanzi didn't sleep all night and ran such a long mountain road with Xu Xinger on his back. In fact, he had been exhausted for a long time. However, when he saw Xu Xinger's illness like this, he felt guilty and a little pain. However, he knew that he could not help here, so he listened to Ye's words and went to the West Room to lie down and rest. As soon as he got on the pillow, he went straight in. I fell asleep.
"Brother Shanzi, Brother Shanzi, wake up."
Shanzi didn't know how long he had slept. He was woken up by Taoer. He turned his head and looked outside and was shocked. The sky was already dark, and he slept until night.
"Brother Shanzi, my mother asked you to get up for dinner." Taoer pushed the mountain again.
Shanzi turned over and sat up and asked Taoer, "How's your sister?"
"The eldest sister woke up in the afternoon and fell asleep after drinking some water." Taoer didn't know that Xu Xinger was sick. She just thought she was sleeping in that room. She tilted her head and asked Shanzi, "Did you not sleep last night? Why did you sleep all day today?
Shanzi rubbed his face hard to cheer himself up, patted Taoer's head with a smile and said, "Last night, I was caught in the rain in the mountains. There is no place to sleep."
"Ah?" Taoer was shocked, "It rained heavily last night, and you didn't find a place to hide?"
"Yes." Shanzi continued to tease Taoer as he went down to the ground, "Last night's rain was so heavy that it hurt to hit people..."
The curtain of the west room suddenly picked up. Xu Xinger stood at the door with a flushed face and did not enter the room. She leaned against the door frame weakly and said to the mountain, "Don't filicate my sister."
Taoer ran to Xu Xinger and looked up and asked, "Sister, are you really caught in the rain all night?"
"You stupid girl, listen to his nonsense to tease you!" Xu Xinger had no confidence in speaking, and her voice was very soft. "If you get wet in the rain for a while, you will get sick like this. If you get wet all night, I will die on the mountain. Let your brother Shanzi dig a hole and bury me directly..."
"Bah, if you have a mouth and no intention, don't blame the Bodhisattva!" Ye Duancai passed by and heard this. He hurriedly took two bites at the ground, raised his hand and patted Xu Xinger on the back of the head, "You're just a little sick, you can't say an auspicious word!"
Xu Xinger shrank her neck and stuck out her tongue and said, "What auspicious words? Do you think that I will live a hundred years old, be invulnerable from all diseases, achieve all my thoughts, become a hundred golds every day, be virtuous and filial, and be full of children and grandchildren?"
Ye began to hear happily, and later, the more she listened, the more wrong it became. She glanced blankly and said angrily, "I will talk nonsense. If you are not well, you will run around. Why don't wash your hands and come over for dinner." After saying that, she turned into the East House with the meal, and Tao'er also jumped over.
Shanzi took a few steps forward, looked up and down at Xu Xinger, and couldn't help laughing.
"What's so funny!" Xu Xinger thought he was joking about his poor body and curled her lips and said, "I usually listen to my body very well, but this time it's just an accident."
"I'm not kidding that you are sick." Shanzi still said with a grin.
Xu Xinger slapped him on the face, "Look at your laughter, maybe you can arrange my bad words in your heart!"
"I just think that you look more like a girl than usual when you are sick." Shanzi has strode back at the same time as he spoke. Only then will he avoid Xu Xinger's raised hand, but he still said honestly, "You'd better save some energy to eat. Don't wait for someone to feed you."
"It's nothing to let people feed you!" Xu Xinger said angrily.
"I think you are really confused. I don't remember how you ate the rice wine before?" Shanzi raised his eyebrows and looked at Xu Xinger.
Xu Xinger suddenly heard it and raised her hand to hold her lips. Thinking that there was no infusion and injection technology in ancient times, she could only drink medicine when she was sick. If she couldn't drink it, then... what was written in the novel was...
She quickly shook her head and threw those messy ideas out of her mind. Her parents were at home. Even if she really wanted to give medicine mouth to mouth, it was not his turn.
Xu Laosan shouted in the east room: "Where are the people? Why don't you come to eat? The food is going to be cold.
The two of them then calmed and washed their hands to eat.
Today, because Shanzi is there, and the method of sweating before Shanzi is very useful, so Ye specially made a few good dishes to entertain Shanzi. There are rare meat dishes on the table, one is stir-fried pork belly with garlic, and the other is cabbage vermicelli.
Taoer has been sitting at the table for a long time, but she also knows that she can't move her chopsticks before the guests come to the table, so she can only stare at the two meat dishes fiercely and can't wait to see them in her mouth with her eyes.
As soon as Xu Xinger entered the room, she saw Tao'er's appearance and raised her hand and pushed it on her forehead. "My eyes are about to stare out. I can't eat it when I fall into the dish."
Shanzi didn't look outside at all. He sat down, raised his hand and put a chopstick of meat into the peach bowl: "Don't listen to your sister's. If you want to eat meat, eat it hard. We just ate it yesterday."
Xu Laosan and Ye are also happy to see Shanzi like this. After all, neither of them is good at socializing. They are most afraid of entertaining guests. Instead, they are relieved to see Shanzi treating themselves as their own.
Xu Laosan poured a glass of wine for Shanzi, and then raised his hand and touched him and said, "I can't talk to your aunt, so I won't say much about those empty-headed things. Today, thanks to you sent my apricot back, thanks to your recipe, otherwise people will be stupid. Not to mention anything else, they are all in the wine. , let's go together." After saying that, he raised his hand and did it.
Shanzi was not pretentious and looked up and drank the wine.
Ye quickly picked up the vegetables for the two people and complained about Xu Laosan and said, "Look at you, I didn't tell you. I mean it. Shanzi is still a child. How can you drink so much wine with an empty stomach?"
She said, and her men were not idle. They put a bowl of cabbage vermicelli balls for Shanzi, and almost piled most of the balls into the bowl of Shanzi. "Shanzi, eat something quickly. It's not good to drink on an empty stomach. It's easy to get drunk and have a stomachache. It's all because your third uncle is not good. Your child is also too honest. If he does it, let it. He did it. What are you doing after drinking so fast?
"Auntle, don't be busy. I really don't want to talk to you." Shanzi took the bowl and casually gave a few balls to Xu Xinger. "You are not in good health. Eat more meat tonic."
When Shanzi said this, he couldn't help looking at Xu Xinger's arm, and he didn't know how the wound was.
Xu Xinger saw that Shanzi looked different and kept looking at her arm. She guessed a little bit in her heart. After eating a ball, she whispered, "It's nothing. It's just a little skin injury. It will be fine in a few days."
"Don't just talk and eat more vegetables." Ye didn't hear what the two children said, and just kept greeting Shanzi for dinner. "After a day, I asked Xing'er's fourth uncle to send a letter to your house. I will still live here tonight, in the same room as your third uncle, and come home tomorrow."
Tao'er suddenly interrupted and said, "Sister, my sister-in-law asked me to tell you that I'm going to the market tomorrow and ask if you want to go?"
"Go, of course!" Xu Xinger suddenly cheered up when she heard about the market.
Ye immediately objected, "I haven't recovered yet. Why don't you go to the market? You stay at my real home and don't go anywhere!"
Xu Laosan naturally was consistent with his daughter-in-law and nodded and said, "Yes, you are so burned like that today, but now your fever has temporarily subsided. Who knows if it will be repeated at night? Tomorrow, you should rest at home and can't wander around."
"Ah..." Xu Xinger's originally excited face suddenly fell down, and her eyes were not as bright as just now. The balls she rarely ate seemed to be as attractive as before. She poked the balls in the bowl randomly with her chopsticks and pouted without saying anything.
Shanzi saw her lively and paws-like little appearance. Suddenly, when she saw such a Xing'er, she was a little unaccustomed. Looking at her listless cucumber, she still couldn't help saying, "Third uncle, aunt, or let her go, otherwise you can see her so unhappy, maybe she is not acceptable. Yi Hao, if it's not cold today, you won't catch a cold if you go out for a walk. At worst, go out later, come back early, and let her join in the fun. Maybe she will be fine as soon as she is happy.
Ye also felt reasonable when she heard this, but she was really worried, so she had to turn her head to look at Xu Laosan to see what he meant.
Xu Laosan thought for a moment and saw his daughter's eyes coming to him for help. Although he knew that she should rest at home, he still couldn't bear to refuse. Finally, he chose a compromise method and said, "Tomorrow, I will push the car to take Xing'er and let her stroll around at the market, which made her tired and fulfill her will.
