Chapter 193: Ancestral Medical Skills
But I didn't squeak, just looked at Lin Aijun to follow me, he was the only one in our group who didn't have the ability to protect himself.
The little girl took us into the village, which looked like it was still in the sixties and seventies, with the hand-cranked wheels on the well at the entrance of the village, and the bright red slogan painted on the low wall by the roadside: "If you want to be rich, have fewer children and more trees!" ”
An old man in a school coat walked up, and my eyes narrowed.
There is almost a collection level of such a thing as a school coat, and people who are born after zero may not have heard of it.
To put it simply, it is an old-fashioned military uniform, which is the abbreviation of the school officer's serge, which is a kind of twill woven from combed wool yarn.
But now, if someone appears in front of you wearing him, it's not playing nostalgic, it's mentally ill.
The old man in front of us looked very serious, and in spite of his great attempts to maintain his dignified demeanor, I caught a flash of surprise and jealousy in his eyes when he saw the little girl leading us into the village.
"Li family girl, who asked you to bring outsiders in?"
The old man stopped the little girl and asked.
The little girl looked a little panicked, but still explained: "Uncle Liu, this aunt said that she wanted to see my mother." ”
"See a doctor?" Old man Liu squinted at us, with suspicion on his face.
"I don't think these people are like good people, let's go, follow me to the village committee first!"
Old man Liu waved his hand and motioned for us to follow.
But Li Yadan was in a hurry, jumped in front of us, and opened his arms to block us: "They are the doctors I found, and they still want to treat my mother, if my father knows that you have delayed my mother's medical treatment, see if he doesn't smoke your ......"
Old man Liu seemed to have some scruples about Li Yadan's father, snorted, and left with a little unwillingness, Li Yadan took us to her house with his head held high like a victorious general.
The yard of her house looked a little dilapidated, the gate was crooked, the door panel was drooping to the side, the kennel in the yard had collapsed, the red bricks on the floor could not be seen red, and there was wild grass more than a foot high growing in the gaps.
As soon as Li Yadan entered the courtyard, he shouted happily: "Dad, I found someone to treat my mother." ”
With that, she ignored us and ran into the house.
The four of us stopped in the courtyard.
Lin Aijun looked around, his face was surprised, and he kept sighing: "This village is too backward......"
Poplar, on the other hand, looked at me indifferently, obviously waiting for my instructions.
Only Lin Ningxiang frowned, and when she saw me looking at her, she shook her head slightly.
I smiled knowingly: "If you come, then you will be safe, let's go, go and see what kind of disease Li Yadan and her mother have." ”
After speaking, I took the lead into the thatched hut, the room was dimly lit, exuding a damp and moldy smell, the furnishings in the house were even older than we expected, inside by the window, on the kang, lying two people, the man seemed to be asleep, curled up in the shabby quilt and motionless, while the woman on the kang head sat up with her body propped up, leaning on the kang and smiling at us.
"My girl is messing around, the house is in such a mess, how can I bring guests back."
"Sit down, sit down, girl, go and pour some water for your uncle and aunt."
Li Yadan left the house, and we sat down on the long bench in the room.
I looked at this woman, she looked about forty years old, she looked as if she had been sick and bedridden all year round and had not seen the sun, her face was so white that she was almost transparent, she could vaguely see the blood vessels under the skin, her eyes were very beautiful, and she could vaguely see the demeanor of her youth, but the languid aura on her body made people feel very uncomfortable.
"Eldest sister don't have to be polite, the craftsmanship passed down from our ancestors specializes in treating all kinds of incurable diseases, your problem is not big, we will take care of it for you later, it should be improved."
I smiled and talked to her, and pointed at Lin Aijun: "But there is something wrong with my brother's family, and I want to trouble my eldest sister to help me here, I don't know if you are willing." ”
Li Yadan's mother looked a little shocked when she heard this: "Can you see what illness I have?" ”
I smiled and said, "Of course, and we have the right medicine, including your medicine to cure the disease." ”
Li Yadan's mother was silent, staring at me with slanted eyes, but she asked Lin Aijun in her mouth: "Big brother, what's going on in your family?" ”
Lin Aijun hurriedly said: "My son was abducted and escaped, and we suspect that the trafficker may have taken my child and hid in our village. Eldest sister, have any strangers been in and out of our village recently? ”
Li Yadan's mother's expression froze, but then she laughed: "Look at what you said, I'm a waste person who can't even get off the kang, how do I know if any outsiders have come, this matter, you still have to ask our girl." ”
It just so happened that Li Yadan walked in with a tray with four large enamel bowls, she looked very happy, and took the initiative to answer: "Ask me something?" Uncles and aunts, you are thirsty, this is the spring water in our mountains, drink it quickly. ”
As she spoke, she placed the bowl on the wooden table in front of us, and then looked at us with a smile, her well-behaved appearance was the same as before, as if she wanted us to drink a few sips and give her a thumbs up.
But her mother interrupted her, her face was unhappy, and even with a bit of reprimand: "Yadan, you think about it for me, have there been strangers in our village recently, especially with children?" ”
As she spoke, she seemed to remember something, and turned to Lin Aijun: "Uh, big brother, how old is your child?" ”
"It's just nine months."
She said to Li Yadan again: "I heard it, nine months, either carrying it or holding it, think about it, have you seen it?" ”
Li Yadan seemed to be frightened by her stern tone, the smile on her little face disappeared completely, and she said sneeringly: "There is a child who came, but that old man is so scary, I don't dare to look at him, let alone bring him to the house!" ”
"Who told you to bring him to the house! Does he live in our village? Whose house do you live in? ”
"Well, stay in that empty house by the river."
Li Yadan's mother's face was a little better, and she waved her hand: "Okay, take your uncle and aunt to take a look, don't let anything happen to the child, go quickly!" ”
Li Yadan was anxious when she heard this, and glanced at us: "Then what's the matter, they still have to treat my mother!" ”
Her mother said angrily: "If I let you go, you can go, hurry up, take them over!" ”
Li Yadan looked at us, tears in her eyes, and turned around to lead the way.
I stood up, but I didn't move my feet, but glanced at Lin Ningxiang with a smile, and then said to Li Yadan and her mother: "Don't worry, let's give you a pulse first, eldest sister, come here, just go out like this, how can you be worthy of our ancestral medical skills?" ”
