Chapter 0019: Flower Head
The white moth is a local saying, medically called acute diphtheria, the condition is very dangerous, the white pseudomembrane increases at a speed visible to the naked eye, the pseudomembrane soon grows all over the throat, the shape is like a white moth spreading out its wings on both sides, just blocking the throat, if the treatment is not timely, the patient will be suffocated alive.
Speaking of the illness of her sweetheart, or such a sinister white moth, Zhou Qinglan asked nervously: "How can it be treated?" ”
When the noodle soup was boiled, Ge Yifen got up and put down the noodles and said, "It's very simple, just use a piece of firewood." ”
Rice stalk firewood, that is, peeled corn stalk skin, both sides are as sharp as a knife edge, need scissors or a knife, and when you don't have it, you don't have it, you can use it as the most convenient and cheap substitute.
"Chai?" In Zhou Qinglan's memory, the firewood is a dangerous good.
When she followed her master to the countryside, she saw others weaving grasshopper cages with slivers and firewood, and she was also curious to learn to weave, but her hands were scratched, and she never touched the corn stalk again.
Ge Yifen continued: "At that time, my sister-in-law's sister stabbed Brother Guan Guan's white moth with smiled firewood, and asked people to mash the grass into mud and pour it into Brother Guanguan. ”
"And then?" Ge Yifen didn't say any more, and Zhou Qinglan asked anxiously.
"And then it'll be fine." Ge Yifen stirred the noodles in the pot a few times with chopsticks.
"It's as simple as that?" It's unbelievable.
"Yes, it's that simple," Ge Yifen thought for a while and added: "Later, I heard my sister-in-law's sister say that after the white moth is pierced, you can't keep the firewood in your mouth, otherwise the white moth that grows again will stick to the firewood, and if you pull it, your throat will be broken, but you can't ignore it, you have to look at the throat for a while, as long as the white moth is still growing, you have to poke it." ”
"It hurts, how much blood has to be shed." Zhou Qinglan shrunk her shoulders, panicking when she thought about it.
"It can't hurt, it's important to save your life."
The noodles were tumbling, the pot was foaming white, and Ge Yifen added half a scoop of cold water to the pot.
Zhou Qinglan was stunned, she didn't expect Brother Guan Guan to suffer such a big crime, if there was no one in front of him when he was ill, maybe she wouldn't have been able to see Brother Guan Guan.
Ge Yifen looked intently at the noodles in the pot until she scooped the noodles into the bowl, and Zhou Qinglan didn't come back to her senses.
"Let's go, let's go back to the house and pour our faces." Ge Yifen reminded.
The room is narrow, and only two people can be accommodated side by side, Zhou Qinglan is standing in the middle, and Ge Yifen can't go out if he wants to.
"Huh? Oh. Only then did Zhou Qinglan find her soul.
The two returned to the house, and Hao Shenmei was already sitting in the house.
Hao Shenmei didn't worry about handing over Ge Kailin to others, and hurried back after giving Jia Haijun a needle.
Half a month later, Ge Xinchou returned home, but only for a while.
As usual, Ge Xinchou came back to the main house and paid ten yuan to Ge Zezhong, saying that the son of the county leader was married, and he followed the ten yuan share, and when he went to the countryside, he spent ten yuan to invite the county leader to the restaurant, and there was so much left this month.
Ge Zezhong didn't believe it, so Ge Xinchou asked him to ask the county leaders by himself, and was scolded by Ge Zezhong for saying something like a loser, where did Ge Zezhong dare to ask the county leaders.
Sun Yingli asked Ge Xinchou why he didn't come back with white noodles this month, and Ge Xinchou only said that he didn't care about going to the grain station to get it.
As soon as Ge Xinchou turned around and walked out of the house, Ge Zezhong shouted Ge Yifen's name and went to the opposite room, and saw Ge Yifen sleeping crookedly on the bed, so he bolted the door of the house from the inside and locked the ten yuan into the box.
When he locked the money, Sun Yingli was guarding the door of the inner room.
Ge and Chou haven't been home for a few days, and Ge went to someone else's house to play.
Ge Xinchou returned to his room and took out two ten-yuan tickets to Hao Shenmei, so shocked that Hao Shenmei didn't dare to answer: "What's going on?" ”
has been married for more than 20 years, and this is the first time that a man has given her so much money.
"I've made a trick." What Ge Xinchou said was very simple.
Sun Yingli has a habit of listening to the root of the window, and Ge Xinchou doesn't dare to say more.
Also, the first time he lied to his parents, he hadn't turned a corner in his heart.
Hao Shenmei stared at the money in Ge Xinchou's hand, but she didn't take it, she hadn't turned around from her shock.
However, Ge Kaisen calmed down and took the twenty yuan from Ge Xinchou's hand: "Dad, give it to me, you can rest for a while." ”
"Dad, you drink water." Ge Kaituo held the bowl to Ge Xinchou, but his eyes were fixed on the money in Ge Kaisen's hand.
It's not that he hasn't seen so much money, his mother does needlework for others in winter, and if he is lucky, he can occasionally receive a large set of orders from people in the city, and he has to live dozens of yuan in wages, and he can spend a while old.
It's just that he hasn't seen his father give his mother so much money, and it's still a whole ticket.
Before the bowl reached Ge Xinchou's hand, a little water had been sprinkled on Ge Xinchou's pants, but fortunately it was mint water that had been dried.
"Huh." Hao Shenmei was amused.
Ge Xinchou also looked funny, took the bowl, and drank it in one go.
Since he was a child, he was taught by his grandparents that no matter how thirsty he was, he would not make a "coo-dong" sound when he drank water, fast and silent.
"Senwa, give your father ten yuan, the man's family is out of the house, how can he have no money on him."
Knowing her son Mo Ruomu, Hao Shenmei knew that Ge Kaisen would put away the money next, so she hurriedly instructed.
Ge Xin was stunned for a moment, and then said, "You can take it, I don't have anything to spend money." ”
Hao Shenmei persuaded him: "You are out of the sky, why don't you have anything to spend money on, take it, Senwa and Tuowa are little babies, and they will pack a few cents on them when they go out." ”
Hehe, Ge Xinchou smiled bitterly in his heart, listening to this, he looked like a guest.
Every time I handed over my father's salary, my father gave him a few cents after actuarial calculations, and sometimes he didn't even give a penny, and he came over for so many years.
The daughter-in-law is also to take care of her own face as a man's family, Ge Xinchou appreciated: "It doesn't cost ten yuan, just a little pocket money." ”
Ge Kaisen opened the lock of the box, and together with Ge Kaituo, he took out the clothes in the box one by one and put them on the kang, revealing a red plastic notebook at the bottom of the box for Ge Xinchou: "Dad, the tickets for ten yuan are all sandwiched in this notebook." ”
Then he put the two ten-dollar pieces that Ge Xinchou had just given him into the notebook, and put the notebook back at the bottom of the box.
picked up a green plastic leather and handed it to Ge Xinchou, Ge Kaisen explained: "Dad, this notebook is full of two and five yuan of money, you see how many dollars you want to take, and the gross ticket and cents are in the drawer of the large wardrobe." ”
Ge Xinchou didn't look through it, and casually pulled out a two-dollar ticket, ready to put the notebook back in the box.
Ge Kaisen took the notebook from his hand, and took out another five yuan for him: "Dad, I have more than two dollars on me at most, you are an adult, how can you only carry this little money with you." ”
