Chapter 13: Terminally Ill
The walls are broken, the vision in the house is dim, and there can be a foul smell in the air, and the closer you get to the kang, the stronger the smell becomes.
Lian Niang, who was half leaning on the kang, was in her fifties, her hair was all white, her face was sallow and there was no blood, and on her thin cheeks, two cheekbones protruded there like two hills.
The quilt covering her body could no longer tell what color it was, and the foul smell emanated from the quilt.
There was a blackened low table on the kang, with two bowls on the table, and there was some blackened liquid in the bowls, which exuded a choking smell of medicine.
There was nothing in the room except for a toilet in the corner, one tied to the wall at the end, and the other tied to the edge of the kang to hold the clothes, and on the rope were several patches of patched clothes.
"You're Redsleeves? Ahem, ahem! ”
Aunt Lian narrowed her dull eyes and stared at Ye Hongsleeve who was walking towards her, and as soon as the words fell, she clenched her fist to her lips and suppressed her cough several times.
"Auntie, I'm Red Sleeves."
Ye Hongsleeves smiled at her and nodded.
Listening to her coughing and panting, Ye Hongsleeve could tell that she was suffering from an old chronic asthma disease, with the windows closed and the air not circulating, and such an environment would only make her condition worse.
"Yo! This has grown into a big girl! Ahem, how young I used to be! It's a little bigger than our Jinbao, ahem. ”
Aunt Lian gestured with her thin hand as a withered branch as she spoke, and a long-lost smile appeared on her wrinkled face.
"People grow up!"
Ye Hongsleeve, who walked to the edge of the kang, was about to sit down, but Aunt Lian waved her hand at her again and again.
"Don't sit here, the house is dirty and smells bad, but don't smoke you, Junjie, you can take the red-sleeved women out to sit!"
"Auntie, I came to treat you specially, and a doctor will never dislike his patients."
Ye Hongsleeve said that he directly took Aunt Lian's hand and touched her pulse.
"This?"
Even the eldest lady was surprised, she didn't expect that after not seeing her for a few years, Ye Hongsleeve not only grew up, but also knew how to heal like her father.
"Redsleeves, can you do it?"
Ye Shi, who was standing next to him, looked worried.
Although she prick Peng Lianxiang's mouth crookedly yesterday, it may be a coincidence.
She couldn't believe that her daughter's medical skills were good enough to treat people, and even the doctor in the village of her mother's illness often said that it was up to God to reward her face for a few days.
"Red sleeves, don't pretend to understand if you don't understand, you can't mess around with this."
"Shhhh
Ye Shi still wanted to worry about two words, but was stopped by Ye Hongsleeve's boo.
Lian Junjie, who was standing on the side, was not worried at all, his mother's illness was already like this, no matter how bad it was, it was not much worse.
And looking at Ye Hong's sleeves and taking the pulse, she doesn't look like a novice who doesn't know anything, but at a glance, people think that she is a doctor with advanced medical skills.
"How's it going?"
After Ye Hongsleeve let go of Aunt Lian's hand, Ye hurriedly stepped forward to ask, as if she was the one who was sick and was taken the pulse.
"Brother Lian, which doctor did you go to see yesterday? What did he say? ”
Ye Hongsleeve did not rush to reply to her words, but turned his head to look at Lian Junjie who was standing aside.
"The best hospital in the county, the doctor in Baicaolu, he said that his mother is terminally ill, and if he wants to live longer, he can only find them to prescribe the best tonic and hang the breath in his chest."
It is precisely for this reason that Lian Junjie will go into the deep mountains of Niubi alone regardless of the danger.
"Hang with the best tonics! can say such things, you know that his medical skills and character are not flattering, although the eldest mother's illness is serious, but it has not reached the point where there is no medicine stone. ”
