Chapter 340: Jade Screen (4)
"The color on this scar ......"
"It's also dyed!" Hui Niang half-bit her lip, and her face became ugly: "Mother-in-law, it's because of this scar that she will ...... She said that only in this way will Hui Niang have a long memory and remember what she was punished for. β
"Having said so much, there is only one truth, that is, your mother-in-law is trying to torture you." Xing Ruyi said, took the lamp and candle, and carefully looked at the scars on Huiniang's body: "This color is potatoes?"
"Diosces? Hui Niang seems to have heard this name somewhere. β
"Dioscorea, like comfrey, is both a Chinese herb and a dye that can be used to dye cloth. If Ruyi remembers correctly, Madame, you just said that the reason why your mother had an accident was because she heard that Madame was pregnant, so she rushed to visit, and when she returned home, she encountered an accident, right? β
Hui Niang nodded, her eyes were slightly red, thinking about her mother's affairs was also a knot in her heart that was difficult to untie.
"That kid, but you couldn't save it?"
"That's right! After the mother's incident, Huiniang's mood has not been very good, and after half a month, the child is gone. Because of this, the mother-in-law made more accusations against Hui Niang, always saying that the child was confiscated because Hui Niang neglected to take care of it. After that time, Hui Niang's body was also damaged, although she has been recuperating all these years, but the effect does not seem to be great. β
"Madame doesn't have to blame herself, although at the moment, Ruyi can't determine what the reason for Madame's miscarriage was, but maybe it has something to do with this scar on Madame's body."
"The girl meant that my child was ...... by her mother-in-law No! Although my mother-in-law was angry at that time, the things she threw over were only small objects of ordinary dyed cloth, and the child in my womb would never lose her life and leave me because of this. β
"In the first three months of pregnancy, the fetus was already a little unstable, and the birth mother of the lady at that time was innocently killed, so it was inevitable that there would be some emotional fluctuations. As for what Ruyi just said was related to this scar, it is not groundless speculation. β
Hui Niang took a deep breath, looked into Xing Ruyi's eyes and said, "Hui Niang, I would like to hear about it." β
"The answer lies in this potato. Just now, Ruyi has already told his wife that this potato is not only a dye for dyeing cloth, but also a Chinese herbal medicine that can be used as medicine. The medicine is cool and slightly poisonous. It is mainly used for the treatment of hemoptysis, hematemesis and menstrual irregularities, amenorrhea and other common symptoms in women, and can also be used for the treatment of postpartum abdominal pain, which can also be regarded as a good medicine. But the good medicine is not a miracle medicine, and this potato is strictly forbidden for pregnant women to contact and take it. β
"Is it possible......" Hui Niang's face became more and more ugly, she took two steps back, and grabbed a thing next to her tightly with her hand: "Is it possible that this thing will ......?"
"That's right, if a pregnant woman comes into contact with dioscorea, it is very likely to cause a miscarriage. The wound on Madame's body was bloody, and it had become darker over the years. This shows that the dye that the lady's mother-in-law threw at the woman was made from the potato, and the medicinal properties of the dioscorea invaded the body through the woman's wounds. It's just that no matter how poisonous the medicine is, it will take some days for it to work, and Madame is not taking it directly, this medicine is not broken down by the stomach and intestines, but directly invades the skin, and even integrates into your blood, Madame. Therefore, the child in Madame's womb is very likely to be lost because of this potato stalk. β
Hui Niang sat on the ground weakly, and after being stunned for a while, she covered her face and cried with a whimper.
Xing Ruyi looked at Hui Niang's appearance, she was really a little pitiful, but she couldn't help but say some words. If she didn't make it clear to Hui Niang today, I was afraid that in the future, she would suffer more accusations and grievances that she shouldn't have suffered.
"Madame's physique has indeed suffered some damage, but it has nothing to do with Madame's miscarriage." Xing Ruyi carefully cut Huiniang's pulse: "Ruyi just carefully checked the scars on Madame's body, but everything that soaked in color was caused by dye.
For example, this part of the lady's chest is blue-blue, which should be blue indigo. In folklore, if indigo is used to dye cloth, the most common method is to mix the grass juice of blue grass leaves with lime after precipitation. As for this lime, if you live in the countryside, you should be no stranger, Madam, it is usually used to build houses, and it is also corrosive to the human body, and if it invades the body, the harm must be not small.
As for the black on the lady's body, it should be Zuqing, or also Baotouqing. It is usually made by boiling and dyeing chestnut shells or lotus seed shells, and then adding iron sand, alum and other metal minerals. My wife doesn't make this kind of dye at home, so I think I bought it and boiled it in a pot with hot water before dipping it in dyeing it. This goose yellow is usually used with yellow barberry, and the official green is dyed with boiled water of acacia flowers.
These things, if you talk about them, are not very much, and they usually do not cause any direct harm to the human body. But Mrs. is different, these injuries on Mrs. are all man-made, and even the dyes of these dyed cloths are artificially stuffed in. Every scar is broken and bloody, so the things contained in this dye will also invade the skin and blood of the lady little by little, and over the years, some toxins will be deposited in the lady's body more or less.
Ruyi does not want to stir up a wedge between Mrs. and Mrs. and Mrs. Mother-in-law, nor does she think that your mother-in-law knows these pharmacology. But the more unintentional the injury, the more difficult it will be to prevent it. The reason why Mrs. has become worse and worse over the years, and it is even difficult to get pregnant, is related to these scars on Mrs. and these dyed dyes. β
Hui Niang sat on the ground in a muffled voice, her face almost bloodless. She didn't expect that it was precisely because of her mother-in-law's punishments and her forbearance in the past that she had not been able to conceive a child all these years. What's the big deal? The person who really left their family without a queen, and made Xianggong have no children, turned out to be her mother-in-law all along.
Hui Niang's heart was so chaotic that she didn't know what she should do.
Xing Ruyi didn't speak again, she knew that when she encountered such a thing, it would take a long time for Huiniang to digest it.
After about half an hour, Hui Niang finally raised her head, she looked at Ruyi's eyes, and asked in a very soft voice: "Can Hui Niang still be a mother in this life?" β
Xing Ruyi picked out the medicinal herbs, and lowered her head and asked her: "Can you be a mother, the most important thing that Mrs. should ask is herself." β
"Ask myself?" Hui Niang was puzzled: "The girl's words, Hui Niang doesn't understand." β
"If Madame is only worried about her own body, Ruyi can tell you very bluntly that Madame's body doesn't matter. Whether it is these scars on the surface of the woman's body, or those toxins that have already invaded the body, Ruyi can think of a way to help the lady remove them one by one. It is only a matter of time before the body recovers. As long as the body is in good health, and the wife and her husband are in love as usual, why worry about having no children. It's justβ"
"Just what?"
"It's just that Madame's mother-in-law seems to be happy with this kind of punishment, and even a little addicted, if there is a next time, Madame, what should you do? Do you continue to endure and accept your mother-in-law's punishment, or do you resolutely say no and be a bad daughter-in-law who doesn't listen to your mother-in-law's guidance in the eyes of others? Ruyi is completely sure that Mrs. will not say a word to her husband about these things that happened to her husband, let alone think about seeking any family refuge from her father-in-law. Therefore, Ruyi thought about asking Madame, if there is a next time, Madame, what should you do? β
"Hui Niang...... Hui Niang ......" Hui Niang's mouth opened slightly, opened and closed for a long time, and in the end, it was only the word Hui Niang who turned the two words into an elongated syllable "I".
"Ruyi can help his wife heal once and heal twice, but he can't stay by his wife's side day and year after year. Moreover, this Yunjiaji is not the final foothold of Ruyi, and Ruyi will have to leave sooner or later. What will you do then, ma'am? Whether it is the process of healing, or the process of conceiving a baby in the future, it is not a short time, have you ever thought about this, madam. β
"What Ruyi girl means, Hui Niang understands in her heart." Hui Niang pursed her lips, and the whole person still looked very entangled: "Xianggong, Hui Niang will not say it." First, this has happened, and it will not help to blame anyone or blame anyone. Second, Huiniang really doesn't want to let them have any gaps between mother and son because of these things. As for the mother-in-law, Hui Niang can go and say, or even ask her mother-in-law to punish Hui Niang in another way. β
"Madame, you are really kind and stubborn. That's it, that's it, anyway, it will take some time for these toxins on Madame's body to be removed. Xing Ruyi said, lifted the collar next to Hui Niang's neck, and evenly applied the ointment that had just been prepared: "This is the poison pulling ointment that Ruyi just concocted, as for the effect, it still needs to be observed for a while." At this point, please be mentally prepared, Madame. Ruyi is not a miracle doctor, and the concoction is definitely not a miracle medicine, and it is impossible to be effective in one or two days. β
"How many days is it going to take?"
"A few days? If you want to completely eliminate the color of those dyes and the traces of scars, I am afraid that it will not be possible without half a year. β
"Little ...... Half a year? That's a long time! Hui Niang clasped her hands, with some panic and anxiety in her eyes: "Does the girl have a faster way?" It's not that Hui Niang is impatient, but Xianggong will come back in seven days! β
"Seven days!"
"That's what Xianggong said in his letters, but perhaps, he will be back in seven days." Hui Niang's eyes became more and more urgent: "It is precisely because the time is so tight that Hui Niang is not allowed to think of other methods, so she has to come to the door late at night to beg the girl." Please, girl, be sure to help Hui Niang think of a proper way. Otherwise...... Otherwise......"
"How else?"
"Otherwise, the mother-in-law will refuse to come back to see Huiniang on the grounds that Huiniang is seriously ill, and she will have to set another family affair for him, and leave Huiniang with seven rules!"
