204 How difficult life is

Li Banxia waited for a long time, but he didn't wait for Ma Xiaoqiang's unfinished words.

"Your house is nearby?" After a long time, Li Banxia asked again.

"Yes, over the hill behind here, it's my house." After Ma Xiaoqiang finished speaking, she looked at Li Banxia vigilantly: "Do you want to tell my mother what my brother and I did?" ”

Ma Rudong also began to get nervous.

Ma Xiaoqiang tugged on Li Banxia's arm, "I beg you not to tell my mother about this, her old man is not in good health, if she hears me and my brother doing these things outside again, she will definitely be angry." ”

Since she was a child, her mother taught her that even if she is poor, she must be poor and have backbone, and she can't do things that hurt her conscience.

If it weren't for the fact that the family was so poor that they couldn't open the pot and didn't even have the money to buy medicine for their mother, they wouldn't have done such a immoral thing.

My father and mother need to be taken care of, and my brother can't go to work outside to earn money. I am not young anymore, and I originally talked about a family business, but because of the lack of people in the family, I have never married.

The days went by day by day, and sometimes, looking at the sunset, they doubted whether they could survive tomorrow, and watched the sun come out of the hills to the east.

Li Banxia shook his head, "You misunderstood, didn't you just say that your mother is very sick?" It just so happens that I'm a doctor, and I know a little bit about medicine, so I can go and show your mother. ”

Ma Rudong and Ma Xiaoqiang glanced at each other, and they didn't seem to have digested what Li Banxia said. Or maybe they don't believe that the people they wanted to rob just now not only blame them, but also help them.

However, her gaze was very sincere, without a trace of malice, and it did not seem to be a lie.

"Why, you don't believe I know how to heal?" Li Banxia smiled gently. "I'm a doctor in my hometown, and I've seen a lot of major and minor illnesses, I remember what I told you last time, you can trust me." She knows their concerns, so she is patient.

Li Banxia could see that they had indeed encountered great difficulties. Seeing a girl who was robbing behind her brother because of the predicament, pinning her head to her waist, she couldn't sit idly by.

And these two people, they are not bad. Never hurt her. If they really have bad intentions, they don't have to look guilty and remorseful at all, even if the two of them don't have sharp weapons. It's not hard to subdue her. All they need is a little money to buy medicine for their mother.

For what he could do, but he ignored it for various reasons, Li Banxia really couldn't do it.

Moreover, she is fine now, so she will accompany them back. Why not?

Ma Rudong believed her: "Are you really a doctor? ”

Li Banxia nodded. "Yes, the last time I went to the city, I went to buy medicinal herbs." Unexpectedly, it didn't take long to go, but I met their brother and sister, and staged a bitter trick with her on the road.

"Do you really want to treat my mother?"

"I mean, go check it out. If I can cure it, I will cure it, and if I can't cure it, then I can only say I'm sorry. ”

"I'm already grateful to you for having you go and see us, brother and sister. Girl. Then without further ado, let's ......" Ma Rudong stretched out his hand excitedly, wanting to hold Li Banxia's, but found that his hand was too dirty, so he took it back in a daze.

"Okay." Li Banxia nodded happily. immediately led his horse and set out on the road with his brother and sister.

"Girl. I'll come to this~~" Ma Rudong said, and he was going to come over to help her lead the horse.

Li Banxia shook his head and smiled, "Brother Ma, thank you for your kindness, it's just that our family is a little willful and doesn't like to be led by the living, especially ...... Hehe! Man. So, I came on my own. "Xiaochou is really a little mare, just like a girl, but she pays attention to whether men and women give or not kiss.

"That's right...... This horse is really interesting...... "Ma Rudong scratched his neck, probably never imagined that a horse would be so spiritual.

"Laughing? Sister Banxia, is this your horse's name? ”

"yes. Smile was given to me by a friend of mine, named Smile to face all sorrow. ”

"It's so cute!"

Li Banxia patted Xiaochou's head, smiled and communicated with Xiaochou: "Xiaochou, did you hear it, that beauty praised you for being cute, do you feel very beautiful in your heart at this time, huh?" ”

Laughter and sorrow accompanied by a snort.

Ma Xiaoqiang's face turned red, because the clothes she was wearing were very torn and often dirty, and the three words beauty did not match him at all. Unexpectedly, this Miss Li actually said that she was beautiful so bluntly.

Girls will be very happy to be praised for their beauty, let alone Ma Xiaoqiang, a guy who often dresses up like a little beggar boy.

Ma Rudong watched Li Banxia interact with Xiaochou with relish, his eyes were bright, and he thought it was very interesting.

"Miss Li, how do you talk to a horse? Can it understand what you say? ”

"Understand, Brother Ma, as long as you talk to it seriously and have the patience, it can understand." Animals are also human, if you are willing to spend time with it, get along with it a lot, slowly, and naturally kiss it. And as soon as you begin to feel close, the meaning of each other will gradually be understood.

These days, Li Banxia is on the road non-stop, no matter where she goes, there is only this horse with her, and only this horse can talk to her. Sometimes she feels tired, annoyed, tired, and doesn't want to hold things in her heart, so she will talk to Xiaochou. And Xiaochou, as if he understood her mood, always rubbed her hands with his two lovely ears to make her happy and cheer up.

Gradually, Li Banxia discovered that Xiaochou understands human words very well, and it seems to understand what others say. Sometimes, I will watch you be happy or not and make small gestures to make you happy.

For example, if you are tired and do not wait for yourself to stop and rest, it will stand still and refuse to go again. When you listen to it and sit on the ground to rest, it will spin around you with its tail flicking.

When the road is difficult, it won't let you walk in front, and it will open the way for you with its hooves and head down.

When Li Banxia told Ma Rudong and Ma Xiaoqiang about these things, their faces were full of consternation. When I looked at Xiaochou again, I already had a little more emotion, instead of just treating it as an inhumane animal before.

Talking and laughing along the way, the home of the brother and sister surnamed Ma soon arrived.

Standing on the mountainside, Ma Rudong pointed out to Li Banxia: "Miss Li, that place is the home of our brothers and sisters." "In a valley with a few families.

The house that Ma Rudong pointed to was a low shantytown. Because the distance is a bit far, Li Banxia can't really see it.

Ma Rudong walked a few steps closely, seeing that he was about to arrive home, and his mood was extremely eager.

Finally, a doctor came to see my mother, and I don't know if my mother's illness can be seen well.

Once, their brother and sister begged an old doctor passing by to see their mother, the old doctor also had a good heart, seeing his mother lying on the bed and coughing constantly, only saying that typhoid fever was in the body, plus the condition was not treated for a long time, delaying the condition, he was also helpless. immediately prescribed two pairs of medicines to my mother, and asked them to fry them for my mother, but I can only see the situation.

Ma Rudong looked at Li Banxia again, that old doctor has been practicing medicine for decades and has rich experience, and he said that there was no way. This little doctor Li has a good heart, but after all, he is too young to know if there is a way.

Ma Xiaoqiang didn't think like her brother did, she looked left and right, and saw that Dr. Li was very confident in his speech, and his demeanor was frank and calm, and he should be a very capable person. Xing Niang's illness, she can really be optimistic.

"Mother-mother-" Before entering the house, Ma Xiaoqiang happily called the mother inside.

"Sister Banxia, this is my house, come in~~"

As soon as Ma Rudong came back, he went to the kitchen to pour water for Li Banxia. And Ma Xiaoqiang led Li Banxia to her father's room.

When it comes to home, it's just a shed. Originally, there was only one large room, but later it was inconvenient for a large family to live in one, so the middle was separated by a long strip made of trees. Up to now, there are exactly four, one for Ma Xiaoqiang, one for Ma Rudong, one for the kitchen, and one for their parents.

Ma Rudong and Ma Xiaoqiang's rooms are very small, and they can live alone, except for sleeping, they are all in the kitchen and outside.

Their parents' room was the largest, not only because they were two people, but also because the place was too small for them to recuperate.

Before Li Banxia entered the house, he was still wondering where the father of the brother and sister surnamed Ma had gone, and wasn't it his responsibility to take care of his wife and children?

After entering the house, Li Banxia was frightened by the scene he saw-

When she was a doctor, she had seen many, many tragic situations, but it was the first time she had seen such a tragic situation as in front of her.

In the room of the house there were two plank beds, which were only made of a few planks and stumps, and the bottom was straw, and on each side was a bed of tattered cotton wool.

On the bed inside, lay Ma Rudong's seriously ill mother.

Her back was turned in, her body curled up in the shape of a shrimp, clutching her chest and coughing. Maybe it was because the cough was too loud, or maybe it was so painful that she was so confused that she didn't hear her daughter call her.

A tattered, thin quilt was wrapped tightly around her, shaking with her coughing and trembling body. Li Banxia stood at the door for as long as she coughed. As if she could never stop, her coughing.

Li Banxia couldn't help but worry that coughing like her would cough out her lungs sooner or later.

She coughed hoarsely, clutching her throat in pain with each cough.

The low cough is a testimony of their difficult life, expressing endless warmth and sadness!
