154. Go to the city to visit the sick and send a letter (520 confess all the little fairies)
While washing my feet, I listened to my ancestors talk about foot binding, and the more I listened, the more painful it became!
In fact, Sun Simiao, who had never had the opportunity to see this kind of scene in her previous life, had only seen photos in later materials.
I have seen it with my own eyes in this life, and I have understood how terrible the things left over from the old society are.
Especially looking at the completely deformed feet, the mood is extremely complicated.
"Ancestor, you don't need to be entangled later, why don't you restore it?"
In fact, if you are not very old, it can be treated.
But the old ancestor looked at his feet and smiled bitterly and said:
"When I wrapped my feet, it was already a heart-rending pain, and then I got used to it, and then I recovered, it was to break the broken bones again, and I didn't want to hurt again!"
Don't want to hurt again!
This kind of talk is inexplicably sad.
How much pain did it make her prefer to continue the deformity rather than recover?
In fact, if you think about it, you also know that orthopedic bones need to be broken and stiffened, and the pain is no less than the pain when giving birth.
The key is that these bones are always present without surgery, so one accidentally punctures the bones.
It's not a matter of a day or two, but something that lasts for a long time.
So don't toss again!
The ancestor's words were very light, but only she knew what level of pain it was.
"Good boy, don't cry, the ancestors don't hurt!"
Since childhood, my ancestors knew from the mouths of their relatives that foot binding was a must.
In order to sell her to the landlord's family as an aunt's wife, this foot must be wrapped.
Later, someone rescued her before she was sold, but the foot was already fixed.
If it weren't for the conditions at home, she would have been tortured to death when there was a lot of trouble in those years.
It's because of these little feet.
There are those who are curious, and there are those who are disgusted!
There are even some people who want to make a wrong idea, and the memory of the ancestor was opened by this little girl again.
The content that came to her mind made her uncomfortable.
Holding Sun Simiao, the old ancestor sighed:
"Good boy, don't cry, it's really okay, isn't the ancestor alive and well now?"
That's true, but who cares?
Sun Simiao cares, but what she cares about is the body of the ancestor, and she can't help with psychology.
No matter what the reason is, Sun Simiao understands that she can't help anything!
Watching the ancestor finish washing his feet, he finished washing the footcloth.
Looking at the old lady's footwrap that many people like to describe.
It looks really long.
It's not that it's not short, but because if it's not long, it will hurt when you walk.
I had to wrap it in many layers to play a cushioning role.
"Ancestor, I'll ask grandma to make you a pair of soft shoes!"
In fact, this kind of foot is not able to walk for a long time, it is really painful and tiring.
The old ancestor smiled, hung the footcloth on the clothesline outside, and then went to bed and lay down with Sun Simiao.
In this summer, there are many mosquitoes, even if Sun Simiao is equipped with some mosquito repellent grass, but there is no screen window in this house, which can only give mosquitoes a chance.
When I saw mosquitoes popping up again, it was annoying.
But Sun Simiao didn't have this trouble.
The ancestor kept fanning it with a pu fan, driving all the mosquitoes aside.
His hand kept patting Sun Simiao's back, coaxing the child to sleep.
When Sun Simiao came to his senses the next day, he saw a pu fan covered on his body, and saw that the old ancestor was only half leaning on it.
This old man may have really not slept for most of the night.
Gently get out of bed and see that someone in the yard has already gotten up.
"Grandma, I want to go into the city and see my mother!"
The main thing is to find an opportunity to buy some cotton for the ancestors, distressed!
I also want to get some muslin cloth for my ancestor, but I really can't see her foot wrap that has been washed and is about to spoil.
Ma Dalan thought that Sun Simiao was just worried about Song Dongxue, and she was her own mother, which was not wrong.
But I was still a little unhappy in my heart.
The granddaughter likes her mother!
Is this what it means to not like yourself?
Without waiting for an answer for a long time, Sun Simiao looked up at her grandmother.
Then I saw that my grandmother looked wrong.
"Humph! Go, go! Go for it! ”
Sure enough, I was angry.
Covering her leaky mouth, Sun Simiao smiled happily.
Holding Ma Dalan's arm, he said:
"Grandma, I'm here to buy something good for my grandmother, not to see my mother."
Ma Dalan's face was much better when he said this.
Sure enough, the granddaughter still likes her the most.
Immediately cloudy and sunny:
"Nacheng, your Uncle Shi is going to go into the city to get medicine in a while, you can follow!"
Look!
As long as her granddaughter doesn't like herself, Ma Dalan is still a grandmother!
Dear grandma!
Holding Ma Dalan's arm and saying sweet words, Sun Simiao went to find Sun Shishi after eating.
Sun Shishi hugged Sun Simiao on a cloth mat that Ma Dalan had tied for her, and the thing was placed on the beam.
After holding the handle, Sun Simiao said goodbye to Ma Dalan.
Sun Shishi went to the hospital to get the medicine needed by the infirmary, which needs to be applied for in advance, and he has to get it several times a month.
Sun Simiao sat on the beam, feeling that she was looking for trouble.
This ass is going to be turned in half.
"Uncle Shi, can I sit in the back?"
I'm so scared, it hurts so much!
Sun Shishi will not agree:
"That's not possible, what if you sit in the back and are taken away by the flowers?"
Belch!!!
How do you answer this?
Anyway, Sun Simiao didn't know how to answer.
"I'm actually seven years old, and I'm in school!"
That means I'm sensible, no!
Sun Shishi continued as if he didn't understand:
"Your grandmother handed you over to me, how can I leave you alone?"
All right!
Continue the journey of eight and a half years.
When she arrived at the hospital, Sun Simiao went to see her mother-in-law, but her mother had been discharged from the hospital and went back.
The two of them went off the road, and Sun Shishi had no choice but to take Sun Simiao to do his own thing.
After taking the medicine, Sun Shishi went to the post office to pick up the letters from the village.
This is also a well-established thing, the postman does not go down every day, and whoever comes up can also help bring the letter back.
The main thing is that Sun Shishi is the doctor in the village, and the people at the post office believe in him.
I was still worried about how to send the letter, but now I have an excuse.
"I want a stamp!"
While Sun Shi was picking up the letter, Sun Simiao lay down in front of the counter and said to a young man.
The young man is a staff member here, looking at the dime in Sun Simiao's hand, he smiled.
The little girl even knows how to buy stamps.
"Kid, did you buy it for the adults?"
Sun Simiao shook her head and took out the cowhide envelope, the address on it was very clear.
Of course, it was not Ye Qingyu's grandmother's handwriting, but she wrote it with her left hand.
"I'm going to send a letter to someone I particularly hate and ask him to make amends for me!"
