She naturally refers to Xiao Su's mother. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
In fact, Xiao Su's original name was not called Xiao Su, when he was five years old, his mother remarried and left him at his uncle's house, but his uncle was not a good person at all, he was lazy all day long, regardless of his life or death, and beat him out of anger at every turn, Xiao Su couldn't bear it, and quietly escaped when he was ten years old, and ran to beg near the east gate of Yuliu City alone. Later, he met the current Xiao Grandpa Xiao Fu, and when he saw that the child was helpless, he took him in and cooked for him from time to time.
After Xiao Su escaped, his mother and uncle never looked for him, so he lived with Grandpa Xiao, and changed his name to Xiao Su. Now after so many years, the person he will never forgive for the rest of his life appears in front of his eyes again, so how can he face it as if nothing happened?
Xiao Su heard Xia Ping'an's question, the pain that almost distorted his face became more obvious, he clenched his teeth and nodded, but he still closed his eyes, as if he could never see that person again.
Seeing this, Xia Ping'an sighed in his heart, and then he turned to look at Qu Yiying, who looked puzzled, and gestured for her to go out with him, so that Xiao Su could be alone here for a while.
When he arrived outside the kitchen, Xia Ping'an gently closed the kitchen door, Qu Yiying approached him, and asked softly, "What's wrong, is there a patient coming in front?" With that, she looked over the front yard and saw a woman with a child in her arms, pushing open the door and entering.
Qu Yiying walked to the shelf, put on the gauze hat hanging on it, and said to Xia Ping'an, who looked ugly, "You don't go out?" Who's that?"
In the days that Xia Ping'an and Qu Yiying got along, they gradually knew that she was treating them sincerely, so she went down the steps and whispered in her ear, "That's Xiao Su's mother, she once abandoned him." ”
The two of them passed through the corridor and went to the front yard, and as soon as they reached the medicine cabinet, they heard a cry, and the woman was leaning over, and the child in her arms looked to be only two or three years old, and had been crying, as if she had been crying for a long time, and even her voice was hoarse. The woman was comforted, her head was buried, her black hair was half gray, her drooping eyes were wrinkled, her skin was yellow, and her whole face had been ravaged by the hardships of life.
Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Xia Ping'an and Qu Yi reflected, and quickly raised her head, a pair of beautiful eyes that could still be vaguely seen flashing in the past, staring at them, with a smile on her face that was almost gone, "Is it Doctor Xia?" I just knocked on the door and no one answered for a long time, so I pushed the door open and came in in a hurry. ”
Her voice was like a baby crying and noisy, hoarse and ugly, but she still insisted on making a sound, "Doctor Xia, look at my little son, he has been crying and making trouble since the day before yesterday, and he didn't drink when he fed him, so he kept making trouble, and the noise made people's hearts annoyed......" She complained and approached, facing the crying child in her arms with her face to them, but she didn't know who Xia Ping'an and Qu Yiying, who was wearing a gauze hat, was the Doctor Xia in her mouth.
Her family has a large population, usually frugal food, can't afford to get sick at all, even if there is a minor illness, it is okay to stay up for a while, if it weren't for her son can't find the root of the disease, so noisy that people can't sleep, and I heard from the neighbor that this pharmacy next to the Donghe River is effective and the fee is very cheap, I'm afraid she can't afford to see a doctor in this life.
About half an hour passed.
Xia Ping'an examined the woman's son, inquired about some complaints, and judged that he was suffering from indigestion caused by cold and heat, so he grabbed some banxia, dried ginger, licorice, jujube, and Hu Coptis to clear the liver and relieve fire, tangerine peel to reconcile the spleen and stomach, and Poria cocos and hawthorn to strengthen the spleen and eliminate appetite.
Qu Yiying wrapped the herbs one by one, Xia Ping'an sat in front of the half-human-high medicine cabinet, and carefully told the woman which medicines should be boiled and decocted, how much to use at one time, which ones can be eaten directly, and what needs to be paid attention to, while the child in the woman's arms was dancing and constantly making noise, and the woman bowed her head to take care of her son, and she didn't know how much she listened.
Half a sound, and when Xia Ping'an finished explaining, the woman raised an overworked face, stared at the packets of herbs, and asked Xia Ping'an embarrassedly, "Doctor Xia, how much does that cost?" ”
Xia Ping'an said, "I won't charge you money, you take the medicine away, treat your son well." ”
"How can that be!" The woman rose from her seat at once, as if she had heard something unheard of, "How can you not take me money?" I...... The dead ghost in my house chopped some firewood yesterday, if Dr. Xia doesn't dislike it, I'll let him pick it up for you, okay? ”
"No, I don't. You just take the medicine away. Xia Ping'an handed her two bags of medicine.
When the woman saw this, she became anxious, repeating again and again that she could not accept other people's things for nothing. Xia Ping'an pushed the medicine into her arms again, and the woman couldn't do it left or right, so she hurriedly took a bag, "I'll take a bag." ”
Xia Ping'an said, "Medicine is not food, if it does not reach a certain amount, it will not be effective at all." ”
"No, no, I'll just take a bag."
She is only deeply branded in her mind with the words that she will pay for and gain every point, and she will resolutely not take those words that do not belong to her, and she does not know what the effect is or not. She bent her back, grabbed the bag of medicine, hugged her son in her arms, and didn't even have time to say thank you before she turned around and fled.
After a while, Qu Yiying stood beside Xia Ping'an and looked at the woman's departing back, "How ignorant this person must be to take half of the medicine to cure the disease." ”
After Xia Ping'an saw this woman, although he treated ordinary patients seriously, he was expressionless, and after he heard Qu Yiying's words, a little melancholy appeared on his face, "Ignorance also has reasons for her ignorance, is it possible that a person is born willing to be ignorant?" ”
Hearing this, Qu Yiying was silent. She glanced at the corridor and whispered to Xia Ping'an, "Xiao Su has always refused to see her?" Or did she refuse to see Xiao Su? ”
Xia Ping'an shook his head and said in a deep voice, "I guess it should be his mother who can't support him, so he doesn't dare to see him, and Xiao Su can't forgive in his heart, and at the same time, he doesn't dare to see his mother." ”
How long the two stayed in the front yard, Xiao Su hid in the kitchen alone for as long as he wanted, but his time was lonely and long, and it should be several times slower than the two of them. At noon, because of this episode, the atmosphere was not very good, Xia Ping'an took two jars of wine for Xiao Su, but Xiao Su only took a small sip.
Ping'an told him that his mother came to grab the medicine because she didn't collect money and didn't take a bag left, at first Xiao Su had a straight face, and after hearing it, he laughed unprecedentedly, but that kind of loud laughter was a kind of sharp ridicule, he laughed, asked Xia Ping'an to never care about these things, and smiled and threatened that if he took care of it, he would not be a brother with him again.
Even though he was saying it with a smile, Xia Ping'an heard his unprecedented seriousness from it.
