020 Back to my parents' home
"It's not a big deal, but in the future, we still have to pay attention to the disease of Xiangfeng Han, otherwise, if it is delayed like this, the condition will be delayed early. This time, fortunately, I saw it in time, otherwise, the patient may not last long."
Dr. Huang got up and walked to the table next to him and sat down, took out the spare pen and ink from the medicine box, and wrote down the prescription. Hand it to Xia Cicada. Ask her to find someone to follow him back to the infirmary to get the medicine.
"Dad, you follow Dr. Huang to get medicine for my mother, and I will take care of my mother at home. We'll all come back and talk about anything."
Xia Chan took out five taels of silver and handed it to Xia Tian, asking him to use the money to pay for the medicine. He also told him to buy some brown sugar when he returned. Just now she saw that Xia Mu's face was pale, and it was estimated that her body, which had no nutrition, was about to be hollowed out by this serious illness. Buy some brown sugar to replenish your blood, and take your time with the rest.
Sent Xia Tian and Dr. Huang away. Xia Cicada turned his head and went home. It's noon now, and it's estimated that no one is cooking anymore. She still went to the kitchen to see what was eaten.
When she came to the kitchen, Xia Chan really wanted to scold her father. What has become of this family? Walking around the whole kitchen, I saw half a bowl of black noodles and nothing else. The oil jar was even cleaner enough to look in the mirror, and if it weren't for the occasional oil stains in some places, she wouldn't have noticed. There are a few cabbages behind the kitchen door.
Xia Cicada supports his forehead, how to make this meal.
"Second sister, are you looking for food? It's been a few days since our family only drank black batter," Dabao stood at the kitchen door, looking clear
Although Xia Chan was already prepared, after hearing Dabao's words, her heart still hurt as if she had been punched. If she hadn't heard anyone else today, they would have stayed up like this. "By the way, what about your eldest brother Changsheng, why is he not at home?"
"The eldest brother went to the mountains to dig wild vegetables. Don't come back for dinner at noon. β
Xia Chan squatted down and looked at this skinny skinny younger brother, "Dabao, you sue Sister SΓΉ, why did the family become like this?" β
In the past, the Xia family was also poor, but Xia Tian was full of strength, and Xia Mulan was also a diligent woman. Although the family is poor, it is still okay to eat enough. Why is it that in just a few months, the family has become like this?
Dabao was originally an eight-year-old child, and it was inevitable that he didn't know how to pretend to be in love, not to mention that the second sister who was standing in front of her now was still the second sister who had loved him since she was a child. I can't wait to be able to say all the grievances in my heart. Dabao said while crying, Xia Chan finally understood why her family had become like this.
It turns out that Xia Tian's mother and Xia Chan's grandmother, like Liu's, are all eccentric and boundless people. I don't like the eldest son in favor of the younger son. Even if the family is divided, they are still thinking about how to search for the eldest son and help the younger son. A few months ago, the youngest son who was not doing his job suddenly became addicted to gambling in the town, and after winning a few games at the beginning, he felt that he was talented, and then he refused to stop even if he lost every time, and finally, after losing everything he could lose, he paid attention to his brother's family, Xia Chan felt that if she didn't marry quickly, it was estimated that she would be sold by her uncle.
At first, Xia Tian also didn't agree to help his younger brother, but he was crying because of his own mother. In the end, he stole all the money in the family to his younger brother. The younger brother's house was also sold out by the younger brother, and the younger brother's daughter-in-law also ran away with others. Xia Chan's grandmother was reluctant to let her younger son starve to death, so she asked for all the food of her eldest son's family in the name that she had no food to eat. Lan's anger couldn't afford to be sick, the Xia family's food and money were all empty, and the family could only sit and wait for death.
Hey, it's really the best everywhere you go. Xia Chan sighed, did not express his opinion, and pulled Dabao to the house
She didn't want to make any comments on Xia Tian's approach, if she wanted to say wrong, he was filial, yes. But if it's right, the whole family starved to death, then whose fault is it?
As soon as she entered the room, Xia Chan first looked at Lan Shi who was lying on the bed, she was asleep when the doctor passed just now, and now she has woken up. It's just that because I have been sick for too long, I haven't eaten well recently, and my whole body is weak and weak. Seeing this, Xia Chan stepped forward and sat down at the head of the bed and smiled at Lan
"Mother, why, I haven't seen my daughter for a few months, I don't recognize it. I'm a second girl."
Lan finally had some affection on his face, but he didn't raise his hand after trying to raise it a few times. Seeing this, Xia Chan comforted
"Mother, don't worry, now I'll make you lunch, and when you're full, you'll have the strength to speak to us."
Xia Chan got up and walked to the table, untied the baggage he brought, took out a bag of snacks from it, and handed it to Dabao. Let him eat a piece by himself and bring a piece to his mother. And he took out all the meat and rice and noodles in it. These things were originally bought for my own family, and I happen to use them now.
Lan's current situation can't eat too well. Xia Cicada boiled a pot of porridge with rice and millet and pasted a few corn flour tortillas. Then a dish was stir-fried with Chinese cabbage and meat.
When lunch was almost ready, Xia Tian grabbed medicine from the town and returned home. As soon as I entered the door, I smelled the smell of meat, and my hungry stomach suddenly gurgled.
Xia Tian looked embarrassed, looked at the kitchen and strode into the room.
"Dabao, is your mother awake?"
As soon as he entered the house, Xia Tian called Dabao, and when he entered, he saw that the mother and son were sitting on the bed eating pastries, he was stunned at first, and then smiled with relief, and strode forward to look at Lan Shidao
"you, child, are you feeling better? This is the medicine I caught for you, and the doctor said, as long as you finish these medicines, your illness will be cured. β
After the rest just now, Lan ate something more. I feel like I have some strength in my body. Slowly said loudly, "I'm already much better, why spend this unjust money." Didn't I tell you that you would be fine when you rested? β
Lan's words made Xia Tian full of shame, and blamed him, if he didn't feel sorry for his mother and connived at his younger brother, their family wouldn't have to suffer with him. The child's mother was even more angry, so she almost went.
"Don't worry, damn it. Nothing is more important than your body."
As soon as Xia Tian finished speaking, Xia Cicada's voice came into the room
"Dabao, come over and help me get something"
"Here comes the second sister"
Lunch was eaten on the same kang as the Xiao family, Xia Chan gave Lan a bowl of porridge and scooped a spoonful of brown sugar bought by Xia Tian and put it in the bowl. It may be that he was really hungry during this time, and Xiaobao actually ate two cakes and two bowls of porridge in one go. was so frightened that Xia Cicada was afraid to hold him up, and finally didn't let him eat it. Xia Tian also ate a lot, but he didn't dare to eat too much because he was worried about his eldest son. Xia Chan saw his thoughts and persuaded him to eat it, but he just laughed but didn't eat again.
After eating, Xia Chan washed the pots and pans and went to the kitchen to boil Lan's medicine, and when he returned to the house, he saw that Xia Tian, who had originally said that he was going to the field, had returned. At this time, he was sitting on the bed chatting with Lan
"Erya, it's not too early now, and your mother's illness has also been taken care of. The doctor also said that it is not a big deal, so you can rest assured. Just now I went to the village chief's house and brought an ox cart to take you home, but now you are separated, and there is only one eldest in the family, if you don't go back, you can't do it. β
