Volume 1: The Witch's Upper Body Chapter 39: Su Xiu

Thinking of this, Chen Peng's heart, which had just calmed down, rose again. He didn't hide secretly, his eyes swept over the few people lying on the hospital bed, and finally his eyes stopped on the bed behind Aunt Li.

Lying on the bed was a woman with a haggard face, who was Chen Peng's mother, Li Ying.

Seeing his mother lying on the hospital bed, Chen Peng's heart tightened, and he immediately pounced on the edge of the bed.

Seeing his son, Chen Tiezhu was also stunned, and then he sighed, in the end, he was still known by this kid.

Chen Peng called Mom a few times, but Li Ying did not answer. Her eyes were closed, her face was a little purple, and her lips were a faint brown, obviously poisoned.

Feeling a hand on his shoulder, Chen Peng looked up and saw Aunt Li's kind face, only to hear Aunt Li's voice say gently: "Last day, when I went up the mountain with your mother to dig medicine and move a stone, she was bitten by a centipede. A big opening, we thought it wouldn't get in the way, who knows......"

After listening to Aunt Li's recounted with relief, Chen Peng understood what happened next.

Ten minutes later, her mother fell to the ground without warning, which frightened Aunt Li, so she picked up her mother and took a tractor from the same village back, and together with her father Chen Tiezhu, who rushed to hear the news, sent her mother to the clinic of Uncle Su, that is, Aunt Li's husband.

Uncle Su has been practicing medicine for more than 30 years, and anyone in the village who has a headache, brain fever, major illness and minor disaster comes to see him.

"What did Uncle Su say, my mother, she ......" Chen Peng looked up at Aunt Li and asked worriedly.

"Your Uncle Su said that your mother would be fine if she slept for two days. Chen Tiezhu interjected.

His face was already tanned because he had been going up the mountain all the year round, and now his face was not good-looking, but he was trying to restrain himself from calming his tone.

"Hey," Aunt Li sighed and said, "Brother Chen, you should tell Xiaopeng the truth." ”

Chen Peng grabbed Aunt Li's sleeve and hurriedly asked, "Aunt Li, what did you say happened to my mother?

Aunt Li was just about to speak at this time, a thin old man in a Mao suit walked out of the back room, and he said as he walked: "Your mother was bitten by a red-headed centipede, but this red-headed centipede is very poisonous, and it doesn't work in ordinary ways......" Speaking of this, he glanced at the taro scalp in the corner of the wall and the rooster feathers on the ground, revealing a helpless expression that Chen Peng had never seen.

Chen Peng's anger and blood surged for a while, he went up and grabbed the old man's clothes, and shouted in an almost roaring voice: "What does it mean that ordinary methods don't work? Old Uncle Su, aren't you a miracle doctor? You must have another way, right?"

The old man was shaken like a pendulum by Chen Peng, and the rest of the words were whirling before he had time to speak.

Chen Tiezhu came up and wanted to pull his son aside, but Chen Peng's strength was too great, and when one of his hands grabbed Chen Peng's arm, he was almost taken to the ground by a huge force. Standing firm, Chen Tiezhu was a little stunned, thinking that he had done farm work all his life, and he was still in the prime of life, and what he had in his body was strength, and he actually ......

Is this still the son who couldn't break his hands with one hand half a year ago?

Aunt Li also pulled the clothes behind Chen Peng and persuaded him to calm down.

After the words were not finished, Old Uncle Su still said intermittently: "I have ...... Called Xiaoxiu...... She brought medicine...... I'm coming back soon......"

Hearing the word Xiaoxiu, Chen Peng's movements slowed down, and his hand slowly let go of Uncle Su's clothes, and there seemed to be a little heel running behind him with two pigtails and a clear nose in front of him.

When she was in junior high school, she was taken up the mountain by Taoist priests, and now that I think about it, those Taoist priests seem to be from ...... Shushan.

At that time, he was still an atheist who believed in science, and he had complained a lot about their family's acquiescence to the Taoist priest's behavior of taking away his daughter, and even strongly condemned the old Uncle Su in front of him as Xiaoxiu's "big brother" in person.

As for scolding him for being patriarchal or not being able to give birth to a son in the future, he can't remember clearly, the only thing he can remember is that he was dragged home by his father and hung and beaten afterwards.

Now when I hear the name Xiaoxiu, I am still so familiar and nostalgic.

At this moment, a pleasant voice came from outside the door: "Dad, Mom, I'm back!"

Chen Peng turned his head to look at the door, only to see a girl in a purple skirt with a double ponytail coming in from outside the door, as soon as the girl entered the door, a pair of bright eyes swept as Chen Peng first came in, and her demeanor was lively with a childish spirit. He immediately plunged into his mother's arms.

Aunt Li's eyes were a little moist, she touched her daughter's head, which was about the same height as herself, and her face showed the joy of reunion after a long absence. In fact, it has only been a few months since Su Xiu last came back.

The mother and daughter exchanged a few words, and Aunt Li asked if Su Xiu still recognized Chen Peng, Su Xiu looked at Chen Peng, looked Chen Peng up and down with her big lively eyes for more than ten seconds, and suddenly shouted: "You are the eldest brother!"

"Finally, you still remember me, I didn't feed you eggs in vain when I was a child. Chen Peng said.

Hearing Chen Peng mention the embarrassment when he was a child, Su Xiu stuck out her little tongue coquettishly.

Old Uncle Su said at the right time: "Xiaoxiu, I asked you to bring something for your aunt to put on it." ”

"Ahh

After that, Su Xiu took out a small porcelain bottle and poured out a small mulberry leaf from it. This mulberry leaf is not the usual green, but a strange ice blue, with a faint hint of cold aura on it.

Lifting the corners of the quilt, revealing the ankle that Li Ying had treated for, Su Xiu untied the gauze wrapped around it, pressed the ice-blue mulberry leaf on the two small brown holes, and gently rubbed it.

It didn't take long to see that the skin that had changed color due to centipede poison was gradually recovering, and Chen Peng and Chen Tiezhu both showed happy expressions. Then accompanied by Li Ying's words, the originally somewhat depressing atmosphere instantly became active.

"I said show her mother, my Xiaopeng will come back tomorrow, come back for the summer vacation, when will your show come back? You said that this time flies really fast, and the two babies have reached the age of talking about marriage in a blink of an eye. This was the first thing Li Ying said after waking up, obviously she didn't know that she had been poisoned and slept for a day and a night.
