Chapter Forty-Six: Bitterness and Hatred
Uncle Jiang and Jiang Feng carried Jiang Zhixuan to hurry, and Xiaoxiao and Qing'er had been carefully shielding him from the sun with quilts. The group cautiously returned to Jiang's house and settled Jiang Zhixuan, who had not yet woken up. Only then did they sit down and catch their breath for a while!
Xiao Xiao couldn't take a break, so he personally went to the kitchen to cook mung bean soup, and after serving it in a bowl, he gave it to Uncle Jiang, Jiang Yun, and Jiang Feng one by one. Even Qing'er and Mul'er were no exception, and they served a bowl by hand!
After everyone drank mung bean soup to relieve the heat, Xiaoxiao expressed her gratitude again, and then began to analyze with everyone:
"Uncle Jiang, in our town, are there often people bitten by poisonous snakes?"
Uncle Jiang pondered for a moment: "I haven't heard of this, the villain remembers that the last time was six years ago." It was a cowherd in the west of the town, who was bitten by a green bamboo, and because it was found too late, it was not saved. ”
Xiao Xiao nodded, and turned to Jiang Yun again:
"Uncle, when counting in the past few days, have you ever found that the chicks and chicks in the chicken farm are missing?"
Jiang Yun shook his head firmly, his mouth was a little numb, and his words were not very clear......
Seeing this, Xiaoxiao was slightly relieved, and wanted to continue to learn some information from Uncle Jiang, but heard Jiang Zhixuan's moaning sound from the bedroom. Hurriedly stopped talking, let the rest of the people disperse first, and ran towards the bedroom with Qing'er'er!
Jiang Zhixuan had indeed woken up, but his face was pale and bloodless. In the afternoon, in order to expel snake venom, Jiang Yun sucked a large amount of blood from him. So at this time he looked very weak, and Xiaoxiao saw him struggling to sit up, so he hurriedly went over and helped him up. While holding a pillow against his back, he told him not to move.
Jiang Zhixuan gasped heavily, and finally took a breath, and the first thing he said was:
"Wife, there are snakes in the backyard, you must be careful when you go to the farm in the future!"
This fool almost lost his life, but when he woke up, he immediately thought about himself and told himself to be careful. The little chest throbbed, and the voice movement was much softer:
"Don't worry, everyone already knows, husband, how do you feel now? What's wrong? As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to Jiang Zhixuan's forehead to test it. As soon as it was touched, it was cold, and it was really as the old man said, with a low-grade fever.
"Qing'er, my uncle has a fever, go and decoct the medicine!" , Qing'er sighed and hurried to the kitchen. This was already something that Lang Zhong expected, and he had already prescribed the medicine and grabbed the medicine, so Xiaoxiao didn't panic, so he tightened the corner of Jiang Zhixuan first.
"Husband, how did you get bitten by a poisonous snake?"
Jiang Zhixuan's life was not in danger. Xiaoxiao let go of the biggest worry in her heart and turned to think about the rest of the matter. After all, there are the Jiang brothers living in the Ai Xiao Farm, as well as Uncle Jiang and Brother Wang. Any one of these people could be killed if they were bitten again. And those chicks and pigs, once they are bitten by poisonous snakes, it will also cause losses!
Jiang Zhixuan glanced up at her, moved his body to make himself more comfortable, and then replied weakly:
"After my husband finished writing a reply for you, I went back to my room and picked up a few books to read in the afternoon. When I came back, I didn't notice anything wrong, so I sat down and continued reading. Who knew that after a moment's effort, he felt that there was a movement under the desk, and then there was a feeling of numbness in the ankles.
At first, the husband thought that it was because he was sedentary for a long time, so he wanted to get up and walk around. Unexpectedly, before walking three or five steps away, the tingling feeling became stronger and stronger, accompanied by a burst of itching! Weifu felt that something was wrong, and opened his trouser leg to inspect it, only to find that the ankle was already purple and black, and there were four small holes on it. The husband knew that he had been bitten by a poisonous snake, and even though he was a little flustered, he looked around, and sure enough, he found a green bamboo coiled under the desk and spit out the core to the husband......"
Xiaoxiao had goosebumps when she heard it, imagining the scene at that time, and couldn't help but change her perspective to Jiang Zhixuan at that time. When Jiang Zhixuan finished speaking, she shuddered:
"Husband, how do you know that this is a green bamboo?"
"Because...... Grandfather was killed by this green bamboo! Jiang Zhixuan gritted his teeth and said.
"Huh?" Xiaoxiao didn't know that Jiang Zhixuan's family actually had someone who died from the mouth of a poisonous snake, and it was also his grandfather.
"It was still when my husband was seven years old, and it was also the Dragon Boat Festival. My grandfather bought realgar and was going to sprinkle it in front of and behind the house to drive away insects and snakes, but he never came back as soon as he went out. By the time the eldest uncle, second uncle, and father found him, he was almost dying, and the green bamboo that had bitten him was also smashed in two by him with a stick......"
"No wonder ......" Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in his little brain, "Husband, you mean that my grandfather was bitten by a poisonous snake when he went to sprinkle realgar?" ”
"Hmm!"
"Do you remember? What wine did we drink at noon? ”
Jiang Zhixuan's mind was a little dazed, and after thinking for a moment, he suddenly realized: "Realgar wine!" ”
"The doctor who healed you just now once said that Qingzhuzi rarely takes the initiative to hurt people. Most of the time you are disturbed or attacked by someone. Because of the sprinkling of male yellow powder, the green bamboo thought that it was trying to harm it, so he bit his grandfather. And we drank realgar wine today, and we have the smell of realgar on our bodies, and the poisonous snake is also hostile to you......"
When Jiang Zhixuan heard her say this, he also felt very reasonable, so he nodded and asked:
"Wife, what are you going to do? I don't know how many green bamboos there are, there are many livestock on the farm, and Jiang Yun and Jiang Feng also live on the farm, if this hidden danger can't be eliminated, if someone accidentally disturbs this beast one day, wouldn't it be ......"
"Hmm!" Xiao Xiao nodded, "We must find a way to ensure the safety of everyone on the farm!" Husband, why don't we buy more realgar powder and spray it around the farm? ”
Jiang Zhixuan shook his head: "I'm afraid it's not very useful, I just thought about it for my husband." I'm afraid this green bamboo is not afraid of realgar, otherwise it wouldn't dare to hurt me. It may just hate the smell of realgar, just as we hate the smell of chicken and pig farms! ”
"How's that to be?" As a woman, Xiaoxiao has an instinctive disgust and fear for this cold-blooded reptile. Therefore, even the brains seem to be insufficient.
"Let's buy some realgar powder and spray it back, it's somewhat useful. However, the most important thing is to take precautions, build the wall behind the employee's house as soon as possible, let everyone wear thick trouser legs, and tie the trouser legs tightly with cotton cloth to reduce the chance of being bitten. After that, let's slowly find a way to get rid of this scourge......"
Having said so much, Jiang Zhixuan's spirit was a little weak. Xiaoxiao brought mung bean soup to feed him, this mung bean soup also has a strong poisonous effect, which is very beneficial to remove the residual poison in Jiang Zhixuan's body!
After using some mung bean soup, the medicine on Qing'er's side was also fried. Xiaoxiao took the medicine bowl again, scooped up a spoonful, and put it to his mouth to cool before feeding it to Jiang Zhixuan. Jiang Zhixuan, who looked weak, laughed for a while, and when Xiaoxiao saw him like this, he blamed angrily: "The body is still weak, what bad thoughts do you have?" ”
Jiang Zhixuan hurriedly turned pale: "I remembered my husband two or three months ago......"
Xiaoxiao reacted at this time, and a smile rose on her face: "Come, open your mouth......"
(Shaorui Shaorui, I worked overtime a little late, I was half an hour late, forgive me, giggles...... )
