"The face is dry and yellow, and the green tendons are exposed, which is a symptom of liver prosperity and weakness. Does your mother usually have a bad diet and often suffer from heartache? ”

"Yes, my mother does have heartache from time to time, especially at night, and it becomes more and more uneasy. As for the diet, it is as the shopkeeper said. ”

"Your mother suffers from a heart disease."

"Most of the doctors I have seen in the past have come to this conclusion." After the eldest daughter-in-law finished speaking, she added: "The cause is there, but I don't know that the shopkeeper may be able to cure the disease." ”

"Heart disease needs heart medicine." Xing Ruyi set his eyes on Grandma Liu's emaciated shoulders: "If it is a heart disease, I may not be able to come up with the right medicine, but Grandma Liu's heart disease, I can cure it, and I can cure it." ”

The eyes of the eldest daughter-in-law turned, and her face showed a different joy from the expression: "That's great." ”

"I, can I talk to your mother?" Xing Ruyi moved his gaze to the face of Da Lang's daughter-in-law.

"Yes, naturally yes. Wait a minute, the shopkeeper, I'll help my mother over. ”

As soon as Dalang's daughter-in-law went, the magpie came to Xing Ruyi and said: "I can't imagine that this spicy and terrible horse girl in the past is such a good daughter-in-law who cares about her mother-in-law and feels sorry for her mother-in-law in private." ”

"Really?" Xing Ruyi asked lightly.

Joy was stunned for a moment and asked, "Isn't it?" ”

"It's hard to know the face of the person, you are still young, and you will understand in the future that what the ear hears may not be true, and what the eye sees may not be true."

"So what's real?"

Xing Ruyi nodded in the position of his own heart: "Use here to see, listen, ponder, and analyze." ”

Joy shuddered suddenly, and sighed: "What the shopkeeper said is so complicated, the magpie can't understand it, but the monkey has said a sentence, that is, don't listen to what you don't understand, and don't read what you can't understand." Always pondering this and that, the old ones are fast, and women are the most old. ”

After the magpie finished speaking, he hurriedly covered his mouth. She suddenly remembered that her shopkeeper was also a woman.

The magpie's little caution naturally couldn't hide from Xing Ruyi's eyes, she pursed her lips and smiled, and said, "I, I want to see this monkey in your mouth more and more." ”

"What is there to see about him." The magpie muttered under his breath, "It's just a rag monkey." ”

"Whether it's a rotten monkey or not, our little magpie knows it best." Xing Ruyi joked, the magpie opened its mouth, and saw that Dalang's daughter-in-law had already helped Grandma Liu to her, so she swallowed what she wanted to say.

"Mother, this lady is the female doctor I just mentioned to you. You see, I didn't lie to you this time, I'm really a female doctor. ”

"Grandma is good, my name is Xing Ruyi, Grandma can call me Ruyi."

"Xingruyi?" Grandma Liu's eyes narrowed, and her eyes, which had always been a little erratic, also fell on her when she heard this name: "There used to be a shop selling rouge gouache in this city, and the shopkeeper in that shop was also surnamed Xing, and his name seemed to be Ruyi." ”

"Grandma Liu, are you talking about the Ruyi Rouge Shop?"

"It's the shop." Grandma Liu nodded.

"Mother, this lady is the daughter-in-law invited from the Ruyi rouge shop." Da Lang's daughter-in-law whispered in Grandma Liu's ear.

"You are the torture girl in the Ruyi Rouge Shop?"

"Yes in the past, not anymore." Xing Ruyi smiled and pointed to his stomach: "Grandma, I got married, and now I am taking care of the rouge shop with my husband." ”

"Married? It's time to get married. Grandma Liu nodded: "I know you, and I've heard people talk about you." ”

Da Lang's daughter-in-law's eyes turned, and her head was lowered, as if she wanted to ask Grandma Liu something. Grandma Liu walked straight to Xing Ruyi and held her hand: "If it was the female doctor next to me, I would definitely not let them see it, but you are different, I can trust you." ”

Grandma Liu's words surprised Xing Ruyi, and she even guessed in her heart where this mysterious trust in her came from. I carefully recalled the bits and pieces of my life in Luoyang in the past, although I had also rescued one or two people and seen one or two illnesses, but after many years, even if someone remembered it at the time, I am afraid that it would have been forgotten long ago.

Xing Ruyi is not an easy person to get entangled, and since she can't figure it out, she doesn't bother to think about it. only smiled slightly, looked at Grandma Liu and asked, "Grandma's illness, I'm afraid it's been a few years, right?" ”

"It's been three or four years."

"Can you tell me more about that? Although I am a doctor, I am also a halfway monk, and I am not too proficient in medicine. If you can know the causes and consequences of your illness, it will be more convenient to diagnose and treat it. ”

"Alas!" Grandma Liu sighed: "Speaking of which, it's all sad things. I am also a hard-working person, my mother died at the age of three, and I lost my father at the age of eight, so it was easy to grow up with my brothers and sisters. When he was thirteen years old, he was told to be a matchmaker and married into the Liu family. Although my old man is an ironworker, he is honest and treats me well. I was born as a bitter child, so naturally I am not the kind of hypocritical and hard-working character, and not long after I got married, I pestered the old man of my family to take me to strike iron together. The husband sings and the wife follows, and it can be regarded as a day of stopping and enjoying for many years.

When I was fifteen years old, I gave birth to my eldest son. My eldest man was born immediately, and he was born for three days and three nights. When the child came out, he almost lost half of his life with me. But where can I take care of myself, I struggled to get up, wanting to look at my eldest man, but the eyes of everyone present were strange.

Ruyi, have you ever seen that newborn baby? So small, so small, lying there softly. Mrs. Zhang, who delivered the baby, told me that the child did not cry when she landed, her face was blue, and even her neck was soft. said that my big man, nine times out of ten, he won't survive. I'm a mother, where can I hear such words, so I picked up my big man and cried out.

When I was a girl, I also heard people say that if the child did not cry, he would have to be brought back to the palace of Hades. I couldn't bear my child, so I was ruthless in my heart, closed my eyes, and slapped my big man a few times.

God have mercy, my eldest man has come back to life.

No one knows how I survived the next few years. As the days passed, my eldest man became more and more energetic and stronger, and my hanging heart was finally put back in my stomach. I originally thought that those bad luck were over, but I never thought that I still sent the white-haired man to the black-haired man. ”

If it was before, Xing Ruyi listened to Grandma Liu's words, maybe she was only a little moved, but now, she is also a mother who is about to become a mother, and the kind of concern for children is the most understandable. She can't think about it, and she doesn't want to think about what will happen to her if one day she is replaced in the position of Grandma Liu.

"I understand." Xing Ruyi stroked his stomach and said softly: "I heard that Da Lang's death was an accident. ”

"It was an accident!" Grandma Liu rubbed the corners of her eyes: "The day of Dalang's accident was originally an excellent day. On that day, it was Niuniu's grandmother's birthday, and when he got up early in the morning, Da Lang went to the best dim sum shop in the city to buy snacks for Niuniu's grandmother, and also bought Niuniu's grandfather's favorite wine. I also watched their family of three go out with Helele. ”

"And then?"

"Mother, the rest of this matter is still up to the daughter-in-law." The eldest daughter-in-law said softly, and there seemed to be some choked in her voice. But if you look at her expression carefully, there is clearly no sadness.

Xing Ruyi felt more and more that this eldest daughter-in-law was a little weird, but because Grandma Liu was still in front of her, she knew nothing about the affairs of the Liu family, and it was not convenient to dismantle it in person, so she only followed the words of the eldest daughter-in-law, and moved her eyes from Grandma Liu's body to her.

"I'm to blame for this." Da Lang's daughter-in-law said, she actually covered her face with her arm, and the choking in her voice became more and more obvious: "That day was my mother's birthday, and I asked Da Lang to go out to buy things early in the morning." Da Lang is serious in his work, and he has always been filial to my father and mother, and what he buys and buys is also very much in line with my father's and mother's wishes. After breakfast, I went back to my mother's house with my little daughter, the Niuniu mentioned by my mother. Along the way, talking and laughing, it was no different from usual.

Lunch was at my mother's house. Da Lang likes to drink, so my dad drank a few more glasses, and when he got up, the wine accidentally spilled on Niu Niu. I was in a hurry, so I said two words to him. If it was in his own house, Da Lang would definitely not say anything about me, but it was in my mother's house, Xu Da Lang felt that I had made him lose face, so he yelled with me with a red face and a thick neck.

As for me, I also have an irrepressible temperament, so I also had a few arguments with Da Lang at that time. Who would have thought that he would leave us and return home alone, and go to the room where the iron was struck drunk, so that he would get drunk and stumble and something like that happened. ”

As the eldest daughter-in-law spoke, she actually cried out loud, but Xing Ruyi paid attention to the sound for a while, and did not see a single tear flowing out of the gap between the hidden fingers.
