The dumb aunt took the pen from his hand, but she still didn't look at the man squarely, and slowly dropped a line of words on the paper.

All the women present could read and write, only the king of fish watched from afar, until the little woman settled down on the last word, looked at the paper with fresh ink, and turned around and instructed: "Grab the medicine according to the list, boil it and feed it three times a day." In addition to breast milk, the child should also be fed more diǎn water. In the future, if he has a fever again, remember to wash him according to my method today, and you must not let him burn all the time, and don't cover it, it is very dangerous, because high fever and convulsions will burn his brain, and it may also cause epilepsy. ”

"High fever, epilepsy, what's that?" muttered the child's mother.

In fact, there are some words in this remark, everyone can't understand them, only Lancao understands, and hurriedly explains, "The child is still young, and when the fever rises, you can't watch it burn all the time, you have to help cool down, just ask the child to cool down a little, because the fever is too high, you will get crazy, just ......" She stopped suddenly, how to say and almost diǎn pulled Liu Wan to the mouth.

Unexpectedly, Liu Wan suddenly interjected, and said angrily: "If you burn out your brain, you will become just like me, thin and small, and often go crazy, and finally become a real little madman." ”

Oh, no wonder this kid looks weird, it turns out that he is sick?

Everyone's eyes suddenly focused on Liu Wan.

Unexpectedly, Liu Wan accepted the inquiry and exploration of this gaze very calmly, and snapped his thin little fingers, "One, two, three, I haven't been sick for three days - I got better after taking the pills prepared by my daughter-in-law, but I used to get sick almost every day, sometimes several times a day, you look at this arm, these and these are all bitten out when I got sick." In the past, many doctors said that this disease could not be cured, but my daughter-in-law said that it could be cured, and she could cure me!"

The dumb aunt looked at the little child with surprised eyes.

Lan Cao's lips were trembling, and a string of tears flashed in his eyes, is the little grandmother's treatment effective, or is it the favor of God, anyway, this Brother Wan'er's illness has really begun to improve, in the past, when he spoke either upside down or entangled, where can he say in front of this (8) ∷ dǐng (8) ∷ diǎn (8) ∷ small (8) ∷ like today, .◎.o⊙s_ (); What is the difference between this and a healthy person, it is clear that he is a healthy person.

Thankfully, the little grandmother's hard work was not in vain, and thankfully, poor Brother Wan finally saw hope.

The child's mother held the baby in her arms, took the prescription in her mouth, said a long list of words of thanks, and hurried back to grab the medicine.

The dumb aunt took Liu Wan's hand and breathed a sigh of relief: "We should go back too." ”

But a woman at the door held a child's hand tightly in her hand, and pushed the child in front of the dumb aunt, "Xiao Zhuangzi's mother said that there is a goddess doctor, who specializes in seeing children's diseases, is it you? Can you help me see my daughter, this child has been sick for many years, and we can't afford to hire a doctor in the first year, and it's useless for the little doctor to see a lot."

The dumb aunt looked like a **-year-old girl, with a yellow face and thin muscles, standing there timidly.

"When I was born, I could cry, I cried so loudly, I learned to call my mother when I was one year old, but when I was one and a half years old, I had a high fever, and I almost died, and when I was ready, I found out that she couldn't speak. The woman explained, wiping tears from her eyes.

It turned out to be a mute.

The dumb aunt suddenly stretched out her slap, snapped, and slapped in mid-air.

The little girl stood stupidly, without a diǎn reaction.

The dumb aunt told her to stick out her tongue and look, and opened her mouth to look at her throat, which seemed to be normal, but the child couldn't speak, just screamed in vomit.

The dumb aunt shook her head, indicating that there was nothing she could do.

If it is detected early, treated in time, and wearing hearing aids in time, it is still possible to restore some of the language function, but now it seems that it is too late...... And these conditions are not possible in such a society.

"Aren't you a miracle doctor, why can't you cure my child? Do you dislike that we are poor and can't afford to pay the money, so you don't want to see it--I beg you, please have mercy on a mother, how can this child live after he is deaf and dumb? Who wants to marry her--my family has many children, and I can't eat enough, and now I have a small defect, and my husband beats me every day and scolds me, and dislikes me for giving birth to such a daughter--"

The woman was disappointed and simply began to weep mournfully.

"If you want, I want to teach her the craft of earning food so that she will not go hungry and cold for the rest of her life. ”

The dumb aunt said suddenly.

After speaking, he didn't look at others, but went straight to the blue grass and looked deeply.

Lan Cao's heart suddenly moved, and she vaguely understood what the little grandmother meant, and she smiled at her, meaning that she supported the little grandmother.

"What can she do? she's a cripple!"

Woman crying.

"She can learn medicine from me, treat women like I do, and earn money to eat with her own craft. The dumb aunt pointed to her chest, "Because I used to be a mute too." ”

"So why are you talking now? Did you cure yourself by yourself? Do you mean that if my daughter learns her skills well, she will be able to cure herself in the future, right?"

As soon as she was excited, she hugged the dumb aunt's arm and shook it vigorously.

The dumb aunt glanced at the child, this little girl looked very good-eyed, very cute, although the peasant children were dressed in tatters and malnourished, but the traces of hunger and cold could not hide her natural loveliness.

"We want to buy her to make a ring. It's up to you to decide what you're worth. The dumb aunt said lazily, and then stopped talking, looking a little tired.

If you say that you take her away for free, you may run into trouble, but it is better to follow the rules of this society and buy it, which is generally acceptable to everyone.

The woman never thought that her mute daughter was willing to buy it to be a maid, and she was so happy that her teeth stumbled, and after thinking about it, she gritted her teeth and reported a number, saying that her daughter's worth less than fifty yuan would not be sold.

In fact, she is ready to bargain, and the fifty literati will definitely not agree, so if she wants to see it, she will accept it, and if she retreats, it is very cost-effective to sell it for thirty yuan.

Unexpectedly, the little woman in front of her didn't think about it, so she nodded her head and motioned for Lancao to take the money.

Lan Cao took out a tael of silver from her pocket, "Fifty wen is worth it, and the rest of the sister-in-law, you can add clothes for yourself." ”

The woman didn't expect to sell her daughter and lose dozens of dollars more, and she was so happy that she burst into tears.

"Child, go with them, you see that there is it, this little lady is a good person, she will not treat you badly, you must serve her well-" She took her daughter's little hand and instructed again and again.

In this era, buying and selling human beings was very common, so the women present were envious of the good fortune of the little mute girl's mother, a crippled daughter sold for a good price, and their daughter's good daughter was sold to a large family as a servant for only thirty or fifty yuan.

When the carriage was about to start, the dumb girl pulled Liu Wan into the car, and Lancao pulled the little dumb girl away, and was worried that she would cry and be reluctant to go, but she didn't expect that as soon as she saw this gorgeous and beautiful carriage to sit for herself, she broke Lancao's hand and ran into the car with a smile.

The carriage and horses walked out of this slum area with a squeaky bump, turned onto the flat riverside avenue, and Lan Cao glanced outside and smiled lightly, "Little grandma, that person has been following behind." ”

The dumb aunt glanced outside, "Don't pay attention, when he dispels the last suspicion, he will come to us by himself, after today's foreshadowing, the time for our bus to earn money is coming." ”

These words are a little difficult to understand, don't talk about Liu Wan, even the blue grass is confused. (To be continued.) )
