Chapter 837: Poison Gas
On Chinese New Year's Eve, when Hongdi was five years old, she and Cuiying and Huang Qiong sisters went to her grandmother's house with their mother to pay New Year's greetings, and the two sisters were sitting in the room to review their homework, and Hongdi walked to her father and asked him to play with fireworks, she knew that her father bought a large bunch and put it on the cabinet, but she did not dare to take it easily, and she had to get her father's permission.
In the end, during the Chinese New Year, Craftsman Liu was not as strict with his children as usual, and fireworks were bought and released. Seeing that the red silk tied on the pigtail came over to ask for fireworks, he said cheerfully, you go get one and put it outside.
Craftsman Liu was about to be relieved and went straight to the toilet. Before he came out of the latrine, he heard the frightened cry of Hongdi, he fastened his pants and took it out, only to see that there was a spark in the sleeve of Hongdi's padded jacket, it was a firework that fell into it, she threw it desperately, but before she could throw it out, she howled and cried. Ma Daoying saw it and immediately passed, grabbed her hand and slapped the spark, but the sleeve of the padded jacket was still smoking.
Without further ado, Craftsman Liu hurried over and tried to pinch it out, but it couldn't be extinguished, Ma Daoying took off the padded jacket on Hongdi's body, Cuiying and Huang Qiong put down their books and rushed over to help extinguish the fire. Cui Ying said that this burnt cotton jacket can be worn if it is repaired; Huang Qiong was concerned about her sister's injury, and a black lump protruded from the junction between her left wrist and her palm, so she told her mother that Hongdi's hand was burned and she needed to ask Lang Zhong for treatment.
Let's talk about it in two days! For the New Year's Festival, how to invite people? Before Ma Daoying could answer, Craftsman Liu interjected. In this way, Hongdi, who burned her hand, screamed in pain, tears wet her face, and dripping on Ma Daoying's caring hands. Ma Daoying asked Hongdi to put the burned hand in the cold water, she felt a little comfortable, and she didn't cry anymore, but when she took it out, the lump swelled even more.
The next day, Hongdi's wound suppurated. It's the first day of the Lunar New Year. I want to find Lang Zhong - the red tea keeps calling.
Child, it's not good to see Lang Zhong on the first day of the new year, even if you find Lang Zhong, I don't know if people are willing to treat you. Ma Daoying said this, and Hongdi began to cry again.
On the third day of the Lunar New Year, Artisan Liu sent Hongdi to a Langzhong named Huayu outside the mountain for medical treatment. Hua Langzhong specializes in treating burns, and when he saw that the wound on Hongdi's left hand was suppurated, he blamed Craftsman Liu for not sending the child earlier, and the burns must have been a few days. This can be cured, but it can leave a scar.
Artisan Liu said that he was burned in the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, how can he work hard in the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve? Hua Langzhong sat there and buried himself in prescribing medicine, and called his wife Liu Ying, who was an assistant, to help dispense the medicine.
Liu Ying is a young woman, with an apple face, a garlic nose, clear eyebrows, short eyes, and a little fat. She is careful, and now she has the prescription and goes to dispense medicine. Hua Langzhong is burly, and even if he sits, he is so big. He was holding a handbag, holding a piece of cotton wool, rubbing it on the burn of Hongdi's left hand, removing the pus from the decay of the epidermis, but it was very painful, Hongdi kept crying, Hua Langzhong saw that the child was nervous, so he said vigorously: Don't move, it will be over in a while.
Craftsman Liu also shuddered when he saw the red flesh inside the skin of the burned part of Hongdi's left hand. At this time, he suddenly remembered that the fortune teller had told her fortune, saying that she had a procrastination when she was five years old, and this proverb really came true. This incident also reminded him of the baby boy who died a few days after birth, and his mood suddenly had a sour feeling, because the Liu family did not have a renewing incense, and he was really worried that the heir's qi would be cut off here.
Hua Langzhong was really good at medicine, and after a week, the lump on the burned part of Hongdi's left wrist disappeared, and the pus slowly contracted; After another week, he was almost healed, but he was left with a scar the size of a copper coin. Hongdi is still young, I don't know how to be shy, I just think it's not good-looking. When her sister Huang Qiong saw this, she comforted her and said: Sister doesn't matter, you grow up, buy a bracelet to wear on your wrist, just to cover the scar.
What is a bracelet? Hongtu asked suspiciously.
It's a ring-like thing. Sister Cuiying interjected on the side, and pulled Hongdi to the door, pointed to a ring door buckle and said: This is what it looks like. Hong Tu shook his head and said, "I don't like this kind of black thing."
Ah! I'm just talking about its shape, in fact, the real bracelet is made of jade, very beautiful, white, blue, green, red, colorful. Sister Cui Ying explained vividly.
Sister Cuiying, I like red bracelets. Hongdi said the color matched the color of her name.
If you say so, I'm going to have an emerald bracelet with me. Cui Ying laughed teasingly. Huang Qiong continued, of course I want a golden bracelet. Cui Ying said that this is the richest color, congratulations! The sisters sat in the shade of the bamboo garden and chatted.
Suddenly, Hong Tu screamed, touched her neck, Cui Ying came over, and saw a caterpillar, which was shaken off the bamboo branch by the wind, and landed right on the collar of Hong Tu, crawling into her neck. Red stomped and screamed in panic, her hands constantly stirring at her collar, but to no avail. Huang Qiong was still witty, she said sister, don't move, I have a way to get this caterpillar out.
Hongdi really didn't move, and a bubble of tears hung on her eyebrows, and she stopped crying.
Huang Qiong took out a piece of soft paper from her clothes, grabbed the caterpillar, twisted it into a pimple, threw it on the ground, and then kicked it with her foot, only to hear the sound of "pop", the caterpillar was kicked and exploded like a firecracker tube. Oh, the soft paper was a little soaked with the broken and overflowing thick liquid of the caterpillar's body. Cui Ying also used a stick to open the soft paper to see that the caterpillar had died so miserably, unrecognizable, and became a mess of meat.
Cui Ying said: Sister Hongdi, don't cry, Sister Huang Qiong avenged you. Hongdi approached her, scratching her hand at the part where the caterpillar had harassed just now, and said Sister Cuiying, I'm so itchy here.
Don't scratch, that's poison gas. Cui Ying said, picked up the red and drove it home, and after walking for a while, she felt struggling, so she let Huang Qiong carry it. Hongdi didn't cry anymore, but the hand was still scratching at her neck.
Back home, the two sisters scrambled to tell Ma Daoying the original story of Hongdi's encounter with a caterpillar. When she saw her mother, she started crying again, and she cried even more sadly, pointing her finger to her neck while crying and saying, "It's itchy, it's itchy."
Ma Daoying pulled Hongdi to look at her neck, and sure enough, it was red and swollen. Then he said that the child should not be afraid, and the mother will cure you. As he spoke, he instructed Huang Qiong to bring a wooden basin and mix a bottle of boiling water in it; Cui Ying brought a towel and handed it to her mother, who let Hong Tu take off her coat, lowered her head and stretched her neck, looked at the red and swollen parts, soaked the towel in hot water, kneaded it dry, folded it into a piece, and applied it steaming to it, over and over again, Hong Tu felt itchy and crispy, and screamed.
Don't scream, don't bark, that's poisonous gas, burn it, and it'll be fine. Ma Daoying comforted the child.
Cui Ying watched from the side, and also helped add hot water. Huang Qiong said vigorously: Mom really has a way. Ma Daoying said: Your two sisters should not take your sister to play in the bamboo garden in the future, so as not to be contaminated with the poisonous gas of insects.
Hongdi didn't shout again that day, but Ma Daoying found that her hands were still scratching on her neck.
