Ah Chou and Grandma Xu walked quickly through the woods, only to see a man sitting on a stone, blood flowing from his left foot, sweating like rain in pain, gritting his teeth and not saying anything more. Beside him to comfort him was Tong Ningxin, the fifth son of Tong Dequan, whom he saw yesterday.

"Brother Ding, bear with me," Tong Ningxin said, unloading the bamboo basket on his body, "I'll go down to find my father and them first, and let them carry you down." ”

Ah Scandal said, looked at the big brother Ding, about eighteen or nineteen, he was not at all able to carry the fourteen-year-old Tong Ningxin.

"Fifth Brother Tong, what's wrong?" Ah Chou stepped forward to ask, and it seemed that Brother Ding was not lightly injured.

Tong Ningxin turned his head and saw Ah Chou, as if he saw a savior: "Ah Chou!" You are also here, just right, I will go to find my father, you can help me watch Brother Ding. ”

Ah Chou nodded, knowing that it was not the time to ask the reason: "You go quickly, I'll wait here." ”

Tong Ningxin slipped away, Ding Juwen endured the pain, glanced at the ugly, and showed a slight curiosity in his eyes: "Are you from out of town?" ”

"Well," Ugly wasn't surprised, her accent was so obvious that it was easy to hear, "your wound was pierced by a sharp weapon, but fortunately there are no fragments left, and the bleeding needs to be stopped immediately." ”

There is no medicine on the body, so you can only use local materials.

Then she glanced at the nearby plants and found that there were herbs in the medicine basket that Ding Juwen was carrying to stop bleeding. So I took some and found two stones to grind the leaves of the arborvitae.

"Grandma, help Brother Ding take off the shoe on his left foot, slow down and don't hurt him." While making medicine, Ah Chou said to Grandma Xu. After all, in this era when men and women are not intimate, it is very inappropriate for her to help Ding Juwen take off his shoes.

Grandma Xu carefully took off her shoes, but she still couldn't avoid hearing Ding Juwen's inhalation.

The wound was still spilling blood, and Ah Chou poured the green slurry ground from the arborvitae leaves on Ding Juwen's wound, Ding Juwen's brows furrowed a little deeper, and he heard the footsteps of Tong Ningxin bringing people back.

"Daddy, right here!" Tong Ningxin ran over with Tong Dequan and Zhao Daqing.

A few people didn't say a word, Zhao Daqing carried Ding Juwen on his back, Tong Dequan took the medicine basket, and hurriedly walked down the mountain.

Grandma Xu went back to light the fire and cook the rice with her things on her back, and Ah Chou followed them to send Ding Juwen home.

Along the way, Ah Chou walked behind and asked Tong Ningxin what happened, it turned out that Tong Ningxin and Ding Juwen went up the mountain to collect medicine, Ding Juwen mistakenly stepped on the trap put by the hunter, and was injured by a spike through the instep of his foot. The trap is estimated to have been set by the villagers on the other side of the mountain.

Walking into the courtyard of Ding's house, I saw that Aunt Ding was frightened by this scene: "Wen, this, what is this!" As soon as the needle and thread that was still being done in his hand was thrown, he ran over and trembled to help Ding Juwen, his eyes were full of anxiety and worry, and he wanted to cry.

Ah Chou patted Aunt Ding's arm and comforted: "Don't worry, Aunt Ding, Brother Ding is not in danger, it will be good to recuperate for a while." ”

"There's no danger in anything," Aunt Ding shook off Ah Ugly's hand and glared at Ah Ugly and said sharply, "It's not dangerous to walk on the road, what do girls know!" After speaking, he turned his head and just pulled Ding Juwen to ask long and short questions.

Ugly blinked his clear eyes under the veil: This is, despised?

Before they could react, Tong Dequan and Zhao Daqing had already carried Ding Juwen in, and Aunt Ding also rushed into tears, with a handful of snot and tears.

Seeing this, Tong Ningxin walked over and looked at Ah Chou with some guilt: "Aunt Ding is like this, Uncle Ding went early, and Aunt Ding only has one son, Brother Ding, and he reads well, so ......" said and scratched his head, looking helpless and sighing.

Seeing the movements of the big boy in front of him, Ah Chou burst out laughing: "I didn't pay attention to it, let's go in and see Brother Ding!" ”

"Alas, Brother Ding is a really good person!" Tong Ningxin followed Ah Chou into the house.

Tong Dequan carefully observed Ding Juwen's wound, and looked puzzled and a little surprised: "Juwen, what kind of magic medicine did you get, the blood is no longer flowing!" ”

Ding Juwen, who was lying on the bed, looked at the masked clown, with the same doubts and surprise in his eyes.

For a while, everyone's eyes looked at the ugly at the door.

Ah Chou was just about to explain, but she saw that Aunt Ding had already rushed to her and shook her shoulder: "You bastard girl, what are you messing around with my family, if there is a length of the article, I won't be alive!" As he spoke, he cried loudly and began to play on the ground.

Tong Ningxin had already reached out to protect Ah Chou, and Ah Chou tightened his eyebrows: This is, the neurotic reaction of menopause? It's weird, isn't it? Thinking about it, he pity Ding Juwen, he has such a mother who has seizures from time to time, how can he bear it?

After all, Tong Dequan is Lizheng, he has seen a little wind and waves, and he is quite sensible, ignoring Aunt Ding, who is crying and sprinkling, and just asks Ah Chou seriously: "Ah Chou, what kind of medicine is this?" ”

Ah Chou was a little helpless: "You pick arborvitae leaves, don't you know its medicinal effect?" ”

Several people looked at each other.

"Arborvitae leaves have coagulation and hemostatic components, and can also suppress cough, expectorant, asthmatic, and sedative." Ugly explained.

Zhao Daqing suddenly realized: "Do you know medicine? ”

Ah Chou nodded, and his slightly hoarse voice was calm and indifferent: "Slightly, if you need anything in the village in the future, come to me." ”

Tong Dequan looked at Ah Ugly's gaze and immediately showed some respect. You must know that in ancient times, it was the era of lack of medical treatment, and there was a person who lived in the village with medical skills, saving everyone how much trouble and how many lives could be saved!

Ah Chou walked to Ding Juwen's bedside and instructed: "Your wounds, wipe your appearance with spirits, grind and sprinkle gypsum and leeks, and mash and seal the white skin of mulberry roots." In addition, if you have lost too much blood, if you are thirsty, don't drink too much, eat some fatty food to quench your thirst. Avoid water, cold and alcohol, eat a light diet with less salt, and rest and recuperate. When the wound is healed, eat some blood tonic. ”[1]

Ding Juwen nodded gratefully.

"If you have a bad fever, come to me." If you are injured, you are most afraid of inflammation of the wound, and it will also cause fever, and if there is no major problem with the body temperature, you will be out of danger.

Ah Chou was about to leave, but Aunt Ding pounced again: "Don't go, your son can't get off the ground, so I want to leave!" ”

patting his head with his hand, Ah Chou only felt a headache: "Aunt Ding, what evidence do you have to prove that I caused your son to be like this?" ”

"It's not you, who else," Aunt Ding stretched out her hand and pointed at Ah Chou, her eyes were sharp, "You only came to my village yesterday, and you have an accident today, so you are still with your broom star-"

Tong Dequan came up to stop Aunt Ding: "Sister-in-law Ding, misunderstanding, when the incident occurred, Ah Ugly was not there." If there is no ugly, how can the article stop the blood. Ugly is a lucky star, not a broom star! ”

Aunt Ding didn't give up: "She is a girl who doesn't know where she came from, what ability can she have to help Juwen, and if she didn't kill Juwen, it is a mercy to God!" ”

Ah Chou rolled his eyes helplessly: Dare to love, did you encounter the kind of thing that helped the old lady and was extorted for money?
