Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Sick Old Lady of Lao Ye Ling
The barking of the big yellow dog seemed weak, even so, Shilan, who was walking on the side, was still startled, and suddenly hid behind Mao Eighteen, and grabbed Mao Eighteen tightly with both hands.
Mao Eighteen scolded the big yellow dog, and the big yellow dog seemed to be full of fear for Mao Eighteen, and got into his kennel and didn't come out.
Mao 18 and Shilan pushed open the peeling wooden door, and a strange smell came out of the room, I can't tell what kind of smell it is, the smell of mold, mixed with the smell of urine.
The light in the room was very dim, and I had just walked in from under the sun, and it was dark in front of me.
There was a weak voice coming from the room to the east, who?
Mao Eighteen and Shilan rubbed their eyes, and then they could see the situation in the room clearly.
Yantai has been smoky for a long time, so it is dark and swarthy, making people feel like a beggar who hasn't washed his face for a long time.
Next to Yantai is a urine bucket covered in dirt. That's where the smell came from.
Mao 18 agreed, said, it's me, and walked in with Shilan.
There was a man lying on the kang, although it was summer, but this person still had a quilt on his legs, gray hair, and a haggard face.
The person who spoke just now was her.
When she saw a stranger coming in, the woman was very alert and said, "Is there anything wrong with you?"
Mao 18 sat down and introduced himself, saying that he had come to help the poor and wanted to talk to the leaders of the village.
The woman didn't believe it and said, "Poverty alleviation, are you leaders?"
Mao 18 said that I am the person in charge of the 18th Group, and I heard that the villagers are having a very difficult time, so I came to take a look first.
You are the Mao Eighteen of the Eighteen Group. There was a hint of brightness in the eyes of the woman on the kang.
Mao 18 said, your old man knows me, in fact, this woman is not much older than Mao 18, but because she looks old, Mao 18 also said it in a hurry.
The old woman said, "You built the charity middle school in Huaihua Bay."
Mao Shibai didn't expect the old woman to know about the Charity Middle School, and said, yes, I built it, but it's a pity that Zhao Tianxi ruined it.
When the old woman heard that it was really Mao Eighteen, a smile appeared on her face, and she said, Hey, I have heard of you for a long time, you are a good person.
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became much more harmonious, Mao Shibai put the two bottles of Wuliangye in his hand on the table, and asked with a smile, what are you......
The old woman said, "Hey, how many years have this been wrong, rheumatism, can't get off the ground, and the legs are not good."
Mao 18 sat on the kang, and the old woman was a little embarrassed, saying, the family is too poor, and you are blind to your clothes.
Mao 18 said, Auntie, I also came here when I was asking for food, don't talk about the two families.
The old woman saw that Mao Eighteen didn't have a shelf at all, so she put her mind at ease, and Mao Eighteen asked, where did the old village chief go.
The old woman said, I went to Huaihuawan, go buy me some medicine, all painkillers, I have been taking it for many years.
Mao 18 said, who showed you rheumatism.
The old woman said that no one had shown it, and she guessed it by herself.
Mao 18 said, if you can trust me, let me see, I know some Chinese medicine.
When the old woman heard that Mao Eighteen would still see a doctor, she was even more happy, and said, then thank you.
Shilan was fine next to her, so in order to please others, she took the initiative to clean up.
When the old woman saw that Shilan was such a beautiful girl and wanted to clean up for herself, she hurriedly said quietly, no, no, it's too dirty.
Shilan smiled and said, it's okay.
Mao 18 finished the old woman's pulse with both hands, and said, Auntie, it's not a big deal, as long as I go down with three needles, you can go to the ground.
But it will take a few days to cure it, at least a few courses of treatment.
The old woman's eyes widened, a little disbelieving, and said, "Child, you're not fooling me."
Mao 18 said, you don't have a silver needle today, if you have it, I will definitely let you go to the ground today.
The old woman said, I really have that thing in my house, this is a thought that my father gave me, how many years.
Mao 18 said, really, take out that piece.
The old woman said, you take it yourself in that box on the back.
Mao 18 found the box that the old woman said in a box in the north, opened it and saw that it was indeed a silver needle, and it was a very good thing.
Although it has not been used for a long time, the surface is still as smooth as new.
Mao Shibai took a few acupoints and began to prick the old woman, and asked the old woman how she felt while pricking the needle.
The old woman didn't feel anything at first, but when Mao Eighteen pierced the fifth acupuncture point, the old woman said, Yo, it's amazing, it seems to have a feeling on her legs.
Mao 18 said while using his hand to make a needle, what does it feel, does it feel hot.
The old woman nodded and said, yes, that's what it feels like, it's so comfortable.
This old woman's name is Wang He, and her father is also an old Chinese medicine doctor with excellent medical skills, but the old man is like a son in his life, but God does not fulfill people's wishes, there is only such a daughter, the old man finally died with hatred, and did not pass on his knowledge to his daughter.
Wang He has been sick for some years, and he began to feel uncomfortable five years ago, but at that time, the family lost money because of the loss of business, so he couldn't come up with any money to treat the disease, and he endured it, and after two years, he couldn't go to the ground at all.
Bai Sanye's original name was Bai Hongyu, a very interesting name, when he was young, he was also a person with a head and a face, in order to please be poor, he also did business when he was young, and he was good for a while, but then the market changed, and the business lost money, and the whole person collapsed.
In the morning, Wang Henian's leg hurt again, and Bai Hongyu said, I'll go buy medicine for you after eating.
It is said to be buying medicine, but in fact, it is some pain-relieving medicine, which cannot play a fundamental role in treatment. It can only be relief.
Even so, it is a stress for the white and red fish.
The family has six acres of fields, all of which are in the mountains, planted with corn, and there is no money left over except for food and drink all year round.
Lao Yeling is a notoriously poor village in Beihai City, and has relied on the relief from above for many years.
But after this relief was sent, there was nothing left after it was intercepted by some people in the middle.
Bai Hongyu finished buying medicine from Huaihua Bay, bought a pound of fritters for his wife, and walked back silently.
On the way, I couldn't help but eat one, but I felt that it was far worse than Zhang Ji fritters.
Not only did I remember that the boss of Zhang Ji fritters died indistinctly, but I comforted myself in my heart that although I had a hard time, I was still alive. When you think like this, you have strength in your feet.
