Chapter 69: Illness Comes Like a Mountain
"It's okay, you're going to be fine! I won't let you have anything to do with it! Looking at Du Mei's weak appearance, Chu Lin felt very distressed, more painful than his own injury.
"Third brother, you promise me that if I die, you must take care of my mother and younger siblings!" Du Mei cried, not only in the unbearable pain in his body, but also in the pain of despair in his heart.
"I won't care, you live by yourself, take care of yourself!" Chu Lin couldn't listen to this sad words, seeing that Du Mei's face was full of tears, and he didn't care about the rules, he hugged her horizontally, this girl was too light, holding it in his hand, it was as light as a feather, he nested her in his arms to protect her, and rushed home with his steps.
The rain fell more violently, hitting the face with ice and pain, and the panther and the black girl broke through the rain curtain like arrows off the string and ran wildly in front of them.
"I have no one else to entrust except you, I want you to promise!" Du Mei was in such pain that she couldn't help but be petty, and she grabbed Chu Lin's shirt tightly and said.
Pity her, and want to entrust her family to a stranger. Their grandmothers didn't want to see their orphans and widows, and the eldest aunt and the third aunt were even more eager to close the second house immediately, so that they could divide their land.
Du Zhong and Du Shu are certainly good to them, but their father and son often can't open the pot themselves. Besides, their family is a man, and their family is a woman, even if they stand and say a word, it will attract right and wrong, so how can they be trusted?
"I care, can't I take care of it? Let's go home, I'll go to Dr. Zhong immediately! Chu Lin was upset and agreed indiscriminately. Before he could reach the gate of the courtyard, the black panther black girl was already barking in unison.
Xu Shi rushed to open the door, and saw Chu Lin breaking in with Du Mei, who had lost blood on his face. Her heart was in turmoil, and she almost slipped on her feet.
Xu, who staggered, ran back to the house, and saw two water men standing in the house, dripping water straight down. Three small ones are scrambling to spread out the bed.
"What's going on?" Xu asked in a trembling voice.
"Mother, my stomach hurts and I'm bleeding, am I going to die?" Du Mei hunched her body and pressed her stomach, after all, she was a teenage girl, and when she saw her mother, she cried aggrieved and scared.
When Xu Shi saw the blood stains on Du Mei's skirt, his heart was relieved, and his expression eased.
"Meizi, don't be afraid, you won't die, it's normal, you've grown up." Xu comforted Du Mei with a pleasant face.
She turned to Du Ying and said, "Go get hot water and wash your sister." ”
Xu's tone was calm, calming Du Mei's nervousness, but she didn't understand that she was 14 years old, so she naturally grew up a long time ago, but why did her mother say that growing up hurts so much!
Chu Lin vaguely seemed to understand something, and he didn't know what it was. In short, Du Mei has no worries about life.
Seeing this situation, he was inconvenient to stay at home, so he also went to the river to fish for water plants, and when he and Du Shu brought home two large baskets of water plants, Du Mei had already cleaned up and slept.
Xu Shi boiled hot ginger tea and gave Chu Lin and Du Shu a big bowl to drink. The rain was too heavy, so Chu Lin had to simply scrub in the utility room and change into dry clothes.
Du Ying chopped up the aquatic plants and tried to feed them, but the hungry ducks were not picky eaters, and they finished eating them in a while.
Du Mei slept so much that she didn't even get up to eat dinner, and she listened to what her mother said, and her face was red with shame. fell asleep at this time, but it saved me the embarrassment of meeting Chu Lin.
The rain gradually faded into the night, and the light of the sky blurred the night little by little, as if a drop of water would melt away the thick ink.
"Woo, Daddy...... Dad, don't go, Meizi is afraid! "A crying voice
Babble.
"Sister, what's wrong with you?" Du Ying, who slept next to Du Mei, found that her body was hot.
"Your sister has a fever!" Xu put on his clothes and got out of bed to check.
"What can I do?" Du Ying was anxious, the eldest sister had always been a solid shoulder that their family relied on, but at this time she was as fragile as a rag doll.
Chu Lin has always been awake when he sleeps, and he is worried about Du Mei in his heart, he heard the movement in the back room, so he got dressed and asked.
"Auntie, what's wrong?" Chu Lin slammed the door.
"Meizi had a cold yesterday and had a fever." Xu said through the door.
"Does it matter?" I thought I had a fuss yesterday, but now I'm really sick.
"I have some herbs at home, I'll boil some for her to drink right away." Xu got dressed and opened the door.
Chu Lin looked in through the door, and the three little ones all got up and gave the bed to Du Mei alone, so that she could sleep more comfortably.
The herbs were gurgling and smoking on the stove, and the ground in the courtyard was muddy, so Chu Lin practiced in the utility room for a while.
After hiding from the sun for three days, he finally came out with a desire to speak and be ashamed. The charcoal pots were removed from the duck nest and replaced with hay, and the ducks seemed to prefer the taste of aquatic plants and ate them cleanly.
Xu Shi fed Du Mei medicine, she was a little conscious, she was worried about Chu Lin's birthmark, and she forced her to help him draw it. Heavy and rough breathing, hot fingertips, Chu Lin was reluctant to let her work so hard, just scribbled.
Today is the day when Chu Lin and Zhao Ji'an made an appointment to go back, but Du Mei is like this, he really doesn't feel at ease to go. He buried himself in his work, carrying water, chopping wood, and did not let himself rest for a moment.
After lunch, Du Mei still did not improve, his condition became more and more serious, his face burned like coals, and he should not scream. Xu Shi reached out and touched the quilt, it was wet, and her face turned pale instantly.
"Chu Lin, hurry up and go to the town to ask for Dr. Zhong!" Xu Shi hurriedly came out and said.
"Ah, good!" Chu Lin dropped the axe, and before he had time to ask, a gust of wind seemed to go out.
It was rainy, warm and cold, and there were a lot of sick people, and the front of Yujitang was full of patients.
"Where's Dr. Zhong?" Chu Lin suddenly threw himself on the counter.
The birthmark on his face was already scary, and coupled with his anxious look, it looked even more hideous.
"Dr. Zhong is sitting in the room. Who are you? The guy on the counter didn't know him, so he asked a few steps back.
"I ...... My sister is sick! Chu Lin didn't know how to tell outsiders about their relationship, so he had to be vague.
"This is all an emergency, Dr. Zhong is very busy, everyone has to come to the door, where can he be busy?" Dude said businessman.
The king of Hades saw that the little ghost was difficult, and Chu Lin didn't talk nonsense with his buddies, so he went straight inside.
"Hey, you, you have to queue up to see a doctor!" The guy at the door reached out to stop him.
Chu Lin turned around lightly and flashed into the house. Zhong Yu was prescribing medicine to an uncle, and when he looked up and saw him, he was stunned, and waved his hand to the guy who wanted to come up and drive people away.
The uncle went out with the prescription, and the guy at the door also closed the door and went out.
"Why are you here?" Zhong Yu was on a visit in ten miles and eight townships, and he didn't want to ask, so he listened to the affairs of Du Mei's family. No matter how terrible Chu Lin's birthmark is, Zhong Yu has seen his true face and recognized him at a glance.
"Meizi is sick!" Chu Lin stepped forward and grabbed Zhong Yu's sleeve and was about to drag him away.
"Meizi has always been in good health, how could she get sick?" Zhong Yu looked at Chu Lin suspiciously.
Chu Lin told him about yesterday's duck fasting and going out to fish for water and grass. He also talked about Du Mei's blood and "wounds".
"Net nonsense! It's going to sit down and get sick! Zhong Yu slapped the table angrily and lost his temper at Chu Lin.
He couldn't take care of the patients outside, so he immediately packed up the medicine box. After a few words of explanation to the guys outside, he hurriedly took Chu Lin out of the back door, and drove the carriage to Dujiagou.
The three little ones, who had never seen Du Mei sick, stared at her sadly with three pairs of eyes. Xu bought a bottle of soju and wiped Du Mei's whole body to cool down.
The panther didn't know where to go, and the black girl hadn't seen Du Mei for a day, and was lying in the yard a little listlessly, and when she saw Zhong Yu coming in, she immediately jumped up and screamed.
Du Ying heard the voice and came out to see Zhong Yu, as if she had seen a savior, and hurriedly stepped forward to hug the black girl.
Zhong Yu stepped into the house in a few steps, Xu Shi did not avoid it, the house was already cramped, and besides, in Du Mei's situation, she was not at ease to go out.
Zhong Yu didn't say a word, stepped forward to take the pulse of the needle, skillful, and sophisticated, and then fed another pill. He spread out the paper on the table and wrote the prescription with a brow.
"Doctor Zhong, how are my plums?" Xu asked cautiously.
"How can you be so careless, the menstrual affairs of an unmarried girl are the most important, how can she be drenched in the rain in the weather like yesterday!" Zhong Yu said angrily.
"It's the first time I've been here." Xu Shi bowed his head and said guiltily.
Zhong Yu also felt that the words were serious, and he was just anxious about Meizi's illness just now, and he didn't carefully consider Xu's mood.
"I'm sorry, I was abrupt." Zhong Yu stood up and apologized.
He looked at the woman in front of him in a daze, in her thirties, thin and white, as if she could see the tiny blood vessels under the skin, the weight of life and the forbearance in her heart made her originally good-looking eyes slightly lowered.
He recognized her, vaguely the same as before, but she couldn't recognize who Zhong Yu was in front of her. Sixteen years have passed, and a young boy has already grown into a mature man who is as tall as a tree.
More than ten years ago, she saved him, more than a month ago, he came to save her and her child, and now, he came to save her daughter, he and her, can really only cycle this cycle of saving and being saved?
"Doctor Zhong, Doctor Zhong......" Xu Shi saw that he was distracted and hurriedly called him.
"Ah, I'll prescribe the medicine, let him go with me to get the medicine." Zhong Yu came back to his senses, and sat down to continue writing prescriptions.
In order to save time, Chu Lin was sent back by the coachman in Zhong Yu's carriage.
Zhong Yu's medical skills really deserved his reputation, he took a needle and took medicine, and drank a pair of decoctions, the bleeding stopped a little, and Du Mei slowly opened his eyes, but his body was still weak and soft.
Xu touched her forehead, it was hotter, not so hot.
It was inconvenient for Chu Lin to go in, so he glanced at Du Gui at the door. In this family, Du Gui admires him the most, likes him to talk about the strange birds and monsters in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas", and prefers him to talk about the customs of the outside world.
"How's your sister?" Chu Lin bent down and asked Du Gui.
"The eldest sister is better, and my mother said that the fever has subsided." Du Gui cried and said in a hoarse voice.
"Oh, that's it." Chu Lin's hanging heart relaxed.
"Go in, accompany your sister, and tell me something." Chu Lin touched Du Gui's head.
With a "squeak", the courtyard door rang, and the black panther entered, followed by a black figure. 2k reading web
