Volume 4 - Chapter 13 Heartache

Outside the house, Feng Yuan didn't see outside, and he set up two stools in the corner of the wall, and sat in the courtyard with Uncle Yu.

"Uncle, I just took a look at the situation in the house, you bought this medicine for Grandma Yu!"

Uncle Yu sighed and said: "Since last year, she has been in poor health, she went to the hospital several times, she didn't know how to tell the doctor that she was uncomfortable, and those instruments didn't detect any diseases, and the doctor said that the person was old and the immune system was declining, which is normal, and there is no way to stop it." ”

Feng Yuan was silent, there was indeed no way to stop birth, old age, sickness and death.

Uncle Yu said: "Some time ago, the 'Yi Bai Sui' was opening, I happened to be pulled in by them when I passed by, and then I took my wife to go once, their instrument also said that it was geriatric disease, but this medicine, they said that it was added with ginseng and cordyceps, and many other medicinal materials, which can strengthen the body and prolong life, so I bought a box and gave it to the old woman to eat, although I don't know if it has any effect, but let me watch the old woman go like that, I really can't do it." ”

Feng Yuan frowned, if he went to the hospital for examination, unless it was a misdiagnosis, nothing would go wrong, then Grandma Yu was really a geriatric disease, there was no way, but this medicine ......

Feng Yuan looked at the small glass bottle in his hand, which read 'Ginseng Cordyceps Oral Liquid', and the main ingredients of the pill printed on the back of the bottle were also written with ginseng and Cordyceps.

"Uncle, have you bought anything else besides this medicine?"

Uncle Yu nodded and said, "There is also a Ganoderma lucidum robe powder, which is eaten with this, and I will show it to you later." ”

Feng Yuan asked again: "Then how much does this Ganoderma lucidum robe powder cost for a course of treatment?" ”

"This powder is a little more expensive, a 1988, but a course of treatment only needs one box."

"So do they sell other medicines besides these two medicines?"

"I don't know." Uncle Yu said: "They recommended these two to me, saying that the medicinal effect is the best, so I didn't ask anything else." ”

Feng Yuan knew clearly, that is to say, when these two drugs are combined, a course of treatment will require at least 5,000 yuan for medicine, and 5,000 yuan for half a month, which is definitely an overrun for rural families, and even some poor families

A year's income, so what is the reason why they spend so much money on it?

Feng Yuan raised his eyes and looked at this small courtyard, although Fan Jun's house is not rich, but it is a new house, and the courtyard houses are all made of cement, but in this home, the courtyard is old and dirty, and the house looks very dilapidated, can it be said that their children are doing a good job outside?

"Uncle, it seems that you and Grandma Yu are the only two people in this house, your children, working outside?"

Uncle Yu looked at Feng Yuan, touched the root of his ear with some embarrassment, and said, "We don't have children, just the two of us." ”

What the! No kids!

Feng Yuan looked at the courtyard again, no wonder there were a lot of waste cartons and plastic bottles piled up in their corners, it turned out to be like this!

Feng Yuan was a little sad for a while, and he said, "Then how much money do you have to buy medicine?" ”

Knowing that Feng Yuan was puzzled, Uncle Yu didn't hide it, "It's because we don't have children, we don't spend much money, we can eat, drink and Lazar all by ourselves, I have been farming and selling food for so many years, plus I usually pick up some rags and sell them for money, I have saved for decades, and I still have some savings in my hands, but this money was originally a coffin book for us, but now it is ...... Alas! ”

After listening to Uncle Yu's words, Feng Yuan was silent for a while before continuing to ask: "Uncle, is Grandma Yu's illness born or acquired?" Have you never wanted to have children? ”

Speaking of this, Uncle Yu looked melancholy ahead, and slowly told Feng Yuan their story.

Uncle Yu's real name is Yu Funian, and his ancestors are all in Yongning Village, but now, his immediate family is gone, and his collateral family is not much contact, so the two of them depend on each other.

This old lady's real name is Cao Guifang, her intelligence is not good by nature, when Yu Dayong's family was poor, she couldn't marry a daughter-in-law, and she met Cao Guifang after being introduced by others, at first, no one knew that Cao Guifang had this disease, but she felt that this girl was not easy to understand when she spoke, and then it was not until she got married that Cao Guifang's family told her truthfully.

But the raw rice has been cooked into cooked rice, and there is no way to regret it, they can only eat this dumb loss, but fortunately, Cao Guifang is a little good-looking when she is young, although she has low intelligence, Yu Funian still likes this daughter-in-law.

After marriage

In less than a year, they had a son, and the family was so happy at that time that they began to think that there was nothing wrong with marrying such a daughter-in-law, and they could just live their lives behind closed doors.

At that time, there was no prenatal examination, and they didn't know that mental retardation would be inherited, so they didn't expect that this child inherited Cao Guifang, and he couldn't speak until he was three years old, and he was always bullied by other children in the same village, and their family was very depressed.

Later, when the child was five years old, he still only made a few simple syllables, one year he planted the land, and when he watered the land in the summer, the adults were busy, and the child accidentally fell into the water, he could not speak, he could only scream, but usually he would always scream, so no one noticed the child's abnormality, so he was drowned alive.

Cao Guifang didn't know what grief was, but Yu Yongan knew that he could only grit his teeth and swallow all the grief into his stomach.

Later, the two of them no longer had any plans to have children, in fact, it was Yu Yongan's decision alone, if he had another child and inherited Cao Guifang, it would delay the child for a lifetime, it would be better not to let him come to this world to suffer.

Yu Yongan said: "I always hope that she can die in front of me, otherwise when I die, there will be no one to take care of her, but the old man feels that he can live another ten or eight years, so he thinks that she can accompany me for a few more years, and I don't want her to go ......too early."

Feng Yuan was silent, thinking back to when he saw Cao Guifang in the house just now, although her body may have failed, but she was in good condition, and she didn't know if it was really the medicine in her hand that worked, or because she was taken good care of by Yu Yongan.

"Uncle, you and Grandma Cao will definitely live a long life."

Yu Yongan was really happy, "Hehe, you kid, you can really talk." ”

Feng Yuanyang said with the potion in his hand: "Uncle, this potion, and the robe powder you said, can I take one each?" ”

Uncle Yu was surprised: "You are still so young, what do you want this medicine for?" ”

"That's right, we've been investigating some things about supplements recently, and I want some samples to go back and see."

Uncle Yu nodded, and he said, "Since that's the case, you can take some away, and it can be regarded as an old man who has lived a lot of years, and he can finally help the police do something." ”
