14. Backyard Sisters Two
"Alas," she sighed, and a tear rolled down her pillow. "It's all my fault for being willful, not only hurting myself, but also affecting my sisters."
"My sister has read some medical books since she was a child, and she can treat some minor diseases, so why don't you help my sister take a look." Yilan has been taking medicine cakes these days, and almost every time she can tell which flavors of medicine she has changed from the taste, she believes that the original owner of the body has some knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine, which prescribes a medicine that is anti-inflammatory and analgesic, and can promote blood circulation and eliminate blood stasis.
As soon as they heard that it would cure the disease, the two women who were still washing clothes suddenly came to their senses, and hurriedly spread out the chairs and tables, "Ask my sister to show them both, as the saying goes, it takes a hundred days to break menstrual and broken bones, which has been more than two months, and I have taken a lot of medicine, but there is no improvement, how can it be good to go on like this." "The one named Xia He just said that he was going to move them away, but now he is begging with tears in his eyes.
"Xiaomei, Xiaomei, don't pour a bowl of tea quickly." She shouted at the house, apparently there was someone else in the room.
Together, the two lifted the blanket and gently took out her hands, both of which were wrapped in thick gauze, and all ten of their fingers were swollen like turnips.
"Was it a handshake? Why is it so ruthless that it hurts like this? Yilan frowned at a glance, could it be that this is a man-eating purgatory?
"At first, it was okay, but I complained of pain, and I also let the doctor come to see it, saying that a few fingers hurt my muscles and bones slightly, and I would be fine if I took some medicine for a month or two. It's been getting worse and worse since a few days ago, and I saw that my fingers that could move were swollen like this. Xia He wiped his tears as he spoke.
It is caused by an infection of the wound.
"How long has it been since you changed your dressing?" As he spoke, he quickly opened the wrapped gauze and saw that it was black and wet.
"We." Xia He was a little nervous, "We don't have much money, and we will be punished for three months this time, I thought it would be soon, so let's save some if we can." ”
"If the infection is serious, I'm afraid that I won't even be able to save my hand, how can I save on this." The gauze is so thick, almost all of it is wet below, Yilan is a little anxious, and his tone is heavy.
The women, who were not very old, wept when they heard this fright.
Fortunately, although the infection is thick, it is not too serious, "What about the medicine you usually take?" Take it for me to see. ”
A girl who came out with a bowl of water quickly ran back to the room when she heard this, and after a while, she walked out with a porcelain bottle. Ylang Ylang took it and put it under his nose and smelled it, it was a very ordinary stick sore medicine, but it always had some effect.
"Is there any boiling water that's already cool? I also want new gauze, "I can only use this without medical disinfectant."
Seeing that the things were brought, Yilan asked her to help her up, and personally squatted on the ground to clean her wounds. When she was almost done, Yilan frowned, and she suddenly realized that the bruises on her hands had not gone away, and it was very dangerous to touch the infected wounds.
"Where do you get your stick sore medicine?" Ylang asked as she drugged the girl.
"Don't you know the way?" Xia He said: "There are many women here, except for ordinary meals, you can only get some rewards at dinners, so every five days, there is a self-organized market in the house, and we can exchange the dowry or extra rewards for some necessities." The servants in the house will also help us buy some necessities and medicines from outside, and we will exchange them for silver. ”
It turned out that there was such a rule, but I never thought that "then this medicine was also bought at the market." ”
"yes, we also made a decoction."
Using small twigs to fix it, Yilan soon finished bandaging her hand, "Okay, go burn a hand stove and hold it, put your hand outside to bask in the sun, it's good for the wound." ”
"We haven't been to dinner for more than two months, so there's no charcoal." That Xiaomei looked to be the youngest of the men, a year or two younger than Yilan.
It's located in the north, and Yilan feels like it's still summer when he walks from the villa, and when he gets here, it becomes winter after two rains. Half a month ago, Yilan was holding the hand stove when he read at night.
"How did you get beaten?" Yilan was a little sympathetic to them, and saw that the two large basins of clothes washed must have been washed for others in order to make some money to buy medicine. Washing in cold water in the winter is only very fortunate.
"It's all my fault, it's me who has burdened you, you don't care about me, let me die and be clean." The other lying woman, who had just stopped crying with sobs, was crying again when she heard about the beating.
"That ** is also for all of us to quarrel, we didn't blame you, you have to die and live like this all day long, let Sister Lin live." A woman walked up to her, snatched the handkerchief that had been wet from her crying and threw it into the basin, took a piece of dry meat from her body, rubbed it her face, and shoved it into her hand. Seeing that the women who had just stopped crying were about to cry again.
The woman who was still fingered was stronger, although she also sobbed twice, and quickly calmed down, "My sister is a good person, and I'm not afraid to tell my sister that I'm being laughed at." She spoke quietly, "The women in the house, especially those like us who were sent by the Ninth Master to be Kabuki, don't have much to marry, so they expect to get some rewards for singing and dancing at the dinner party. ”
"This accident is also to blame me, in addition to the sixth master that day, there were also three masters, seven masters and nine masters, twelve masters, the front of the seven masters sent a few dancing girls, after the dance, the ninth master said that the dance is good, who still came to dance, I turned the circle up, at this time there were two also wanted to go up to dance, so they pushed me, I didn't stand firm and fell to the ground. Peach is a fierce person, and when she saw that I was suffering a loss, she went up and scolded them with the piano. ”
"That day, the sixth master was angry, saying that he was going to beat the two women hard, and the third master said next to him that the quarrel was on both sides, how could there be only one party punished, and as a result, both of us were punished. Fortunately, I just flicked my fingers, and I could stand it, but poor Pink was beaten fifty times on the board, and even her waist and legs were discounted. Seeing that they were all crying sadly, Yilan was helpless, picked up a handkerchief, and helped her wipe her tears.
"Do you know who those two women are?" Ylan asked softly.
"I heard that it was sent by the third master, and she was beaten by Sister Bilin and Sister Taohong, who were both miserable, and passed out before the fight was finished, but I was afraid that my legs would not be saved, and the angry third master left without saying a word at that time." That Xiaomei said indignantly.
Obviously, this is the sixth prince who took advantage of this incident to get rid of the person sent by the third prince, thinking about the third prince's appearance at that time, I am afraid that the third prince has high hopes for the two. It seems that the sick sixth prince has some means.
