Chapter 29: The Secret of Dakang's Life
Ximenjian's mother hurriedly asked Dakang Niang to lie on the kang, used a hot towel to warm her injured back, and comforted: "Old sister-in-law, don't worry...... Your injury is not a big problem, your son will come back in a while, ask him to find some red wound medicine, and apply it to his back, and it will be fine. ”
Da Kangniang raised her head and turned her face sideways, and asked weakly: "Big sister, you see that the big guy is patronizing me and saying that I am sick, and I forgot to introduce you, you are Ximen Jian's mother, right?" ”
"Hi ......" Ximen Jian's mother shed tears, sighed, and said: "Old sister-in-law, I am Ximen Jian's mother, I just want to come to see the plum blossoms, but what kind of thing does Cheng want to encounter, it's really unfortunate, the ghost fox's damn two devils are really evil, they hurt you, and the plum blossoms were scared away, how can this be done?" ”
Da Kangniang's back after a short period of hot compress, it seems that the condition has improved, her face is a little ruddy, and her complexion is obviously much better, she sat up against the quilt, looked around the room, felt that it was on her own kang, and asked: "What about my son, why hasn't he come back yet?" ”
"He went out and got someone to see you."
"Oh, he'll be back in a moment, and I'll have something to say to him."
"Is your Zhao family the landlord of this tunzi?"
"It's not...... We are not from the northeast, we have fled from the south. Hi...... It's a long story, but it was in the summer of 12 years ago that my husband and I walked from the south to this place......"
Suddenly, Da Kangniang gasped for a few breaths and stopped talking.
Seeing this, Ximenjian's mother hurriedly got on the kang, patted her on the back and said, "Old sister-in-law, don't say it, don't be tired, take a good rest." ”
Da Kangniang closed her eyes and stopped talking, in fact, she was saving her little strength, waiting for her son to come back and tell the secret she had hidden in her heart for twelve years.
After a while, Dakang led three or five neighbors, including Mr. Kong Ruixiang, Uncle Zhang, and Aunt Zhang, into the house.
The villagers checked Da Kang Niang's injury, and the old man Kong knew a little about medicine, and after reading it, he said: "Da Kang Niang's back was hit by the ghost fox's iron fan, this appearance is irrelevant, since she vomited blood, she must have suffered internal injuries!" ”
After checking Da Kang Niang's injury, Old Man Kong got off the ground, pulled Da Kang aside, and whispered: "Child, your mother is seriously injured, go to the county seat quickly, grab a few pairs of Chinese medicine to treat internal injuries, and maybe save ......."
"Huh?" When Dakang heard the words of the respected old man Kong, he knew that the old lady was very dangerous, so he was a little confused for a while, shed sad tears, and choked up and said, "Was my mother beaten so badly?" Okay, I'll go right away! ”
Ximen Jian was very anxious for Dakang on the side, and hurriedly walked over and said, "Brother Dakang, you take care of your aunt at home, I will send someone immediately." ”
After that, Ximen Jian asked Old Man Kong to prescribe a prescription for the treatment of internal injuries, hurriedly called the two guards, took out 10 pieces of ocean from his pocket, handed it to the guards, and said: "You two ride fast horses, immediately go to Qingsongling County to buy medicine, save people, go back quickly!" ”
"Yes!" The two guards said yes and flew away......
At this moment, Da Kangniang seemed to have heard Ximen Jian's conversation, opened her eyes and said, "Child, don't bother, I can't get better from this illness." ”
Dakang hurriedly ran over, threw himself on his mother, and shouted, "Mother, mother...... You're fine, you'll be fine...... Brother Xiaojian has gone to buy you medicine. ”
Da Kangniang shook her head: "Don't go, it's useless...... Son, come here, my mother has something to tell you. ”
Tears overflowed from the corners of her eyes, and there seemed to be too many entanglements in her heart, she sighed and said, "Child, my mother is about to die......"
"Mother......"
"Auntie......"
"Dakang ......"
"Old Zhao's sister-in-law......"
Everyone called out to the old lady, and Dakang fell on his mother and cried bitterly.
Da Kang Niang paused, barely opened her eyes, seemed to accumulate some strength, looked at Da Kang, took his hand, and said intermittently: "Child...... You're not your mother and your father's own son......"
"Huh?" People were surprised and focused their eyes on Da Kang Niang's face.
"Mother...... Dakang cried out heartbreakingly, "What did you say? I'm your own son! Are you confused by the two devils? ”
"Hi ......" Da Kang Niang still held her son's hand, sighed, and continued: "My mother can see the mirror in my heart, my mother told you a secret, you are a child picked up by your mother and your father in the mountains......"
"Huh? What the? I'm a pick-up child? How is this possible? Dakang asked.
Da Kangniang nodded and said: "You were about eight or nine years old that year, and your mother and your father walked in this vast mountain in Kanto, in a ...... On a rock on the Fairy Peak in the north of the mountain called Golden Hook Town, I saw a little boy of eight or nine years old, with a small red pocket on his body, and a small piece of rounded tiger bone tied around his neck, and the tiger bone was also engraved with words. ”
"Huh?" Mrs. Ximen Jian was suddenly startled when she heard Da Kangniang's words, and muttered the key words in her words: "Fairy Peak, a rock, an eight- or nine-year-old boy, a little red pocket, a small piece of rounded tiger bone...... This...... Isn't this exactly the situation and clothing of the eldest son Dakang when he was seriously ill and ineffective, but still went into the mountains? Is it ......?"
I heard Da Kangniang say again, "When the child saw me and your father, he cried with a wow, I have been married to your father for seven or eight years, and I didn't have a child, so I took the child away......"
Ximenjian's mother asked eagerly, "Is that child the current Dakang?" How is this possible? ”
Da Kangniang nodded again and said: "I chewed half of the big cake in my arms at that time, which saved the child's life, and then we walked to this happy shop and landed." Who doesn't know that this child was picked up. ”
"Huh?" People were surprised, it turned out that Dakang was a child who was picked up, but who could throw away his own child casually?
Da Kang Niang said: "At that time, this pimple was full of bandits, and the people in chaos were not able to make a living, we poor people could afford to have children, and we couldn't support them, it must be who had many children, and I was afraid that I would not be able to support them, so I threw the children, and in order for the children to grow up and recognize their ancestors, I left a tiger bone mark on my neck......"
"Huh? Tiger bone markers? Ximen Jian's mother was very excited, and couldn't help asking, "What kind of tiger bone mark?" ”
People know that Da Kang Niang may be about to breathe, and they all want to find out Da Kang's life experience when she understands.
However, Da Kangniang gasped for breath, and she was so anxious that she couldn't speak......
