"Mother, don't talk so much, let's taste it first." Zhang Shaofei said, picked up an orange, peeled it quickly, and stuffed it into Wang Shaoxiang's mouth.

Wang Shaoxiang bit down, and a sweetness like rock sugar immediately overflowed in his mouth, chewed a few more times, showed a smile on his face, and praised again and again: "Good, good!" This orange is really different from the oranges we usually eat."

Zhang Shaofei walked the side: "This is a local specialty over there in Lingnan - sand sugar oranges." ”

"Sand tangerine?" Wang Shaoxiang praised with a sigh, "No wonder I bite into it as if I have eaten a sugar cube, I have never eaten such a sweet orange." ”

Zhang Shaofei said filial piety: "This time I specially brought it back from there for you to try." ”

Wang Shaoxiang spoke with a bit of pity: "Just now you went into the kitchen to scoop water from a wooden shell and drink that impatient look, I think you are very thirsty." In that case, why don't you eat these oranges when you're hiding in the mountains? ”

Zhang Shaofei replied: "I will endure the thirst and it will pass." Mother, I want to leave more delicious things for you to eat! ”

Wang Shaoxiang boasted: "Fei'er, you really have my filial piety." ”

Zhang Shaofei said, took out a paper bag from the baggage, and opened it carefully, "Mother, these are better treasures." ”

Wang Shaoxiang leaned down and lowered his head, and looked at it through the dim light: there were several ingot-shaped nest-like things, about two inches long and about an inch deep, with small falling corners at both ends.

Wang Shaoxiang had never seen such a novelty, blinked his eyes, and asked, "Fei'er, what is this?" ”

Zhang Shaofei put his mouth to Wang Shaoxiang's ear: "This is bird's nest." ”

"Bird's nest?" Wang Shaoxiang was touched by something, his frowning brows loosened again, and asked, "Are they those bird's nests that the landlord Lao Cai eats on weekdays?" ”

"Not bad. My mother was right this time. Zhang Shaofei nodded and said, "I have heard people say that bird's nest has five major effects, such as nourishing yin, moisturizing dryness, invigorating qi, replenishing the middle, and nourishing the skin, and can treat lung yin deficiency, cough, night sweats, hemoptysis and other symptoms. Eating it on weekdays can strengthen your body. ”

"No wonder the landlord Lao Cai wants to eat it to make up for his body." Wang Shaoxiang turned around and stared at Zhang Shaofei, "Bird's nest is very valuable, how can you have the money to buy these things?" It wasn't stolen from the landlord's old rich house, right? Although Wang Shaoxiang knew that her son had always been honest and would not do those things that were crowed by chickens and dogs, she knew that bird's nest was an extremely valuable thing, and Zhang Shaofei did not have much money on him, so this thing must have a great background, so she asked her son with a straight face.

"Mother, you have always taught me to be an honest person, how could I do those bad things of stealing chickens and dogs?!" Zhang Shaofei picked up the bird's nest and shook it, and his attitude was extremely serious when he spoke, "Bird's nest is indeed very precious. These bird's nests were given to me by the villagers in Guanghuai. ”

"The villagers gave it to you?" Wang Shaoxiang still couldn't solve the doubts in his heart, "The countrymen are so poor that they can't take care of the next meal." Where will they have the money to buy bird's nest for you? ”

"There is a swallow rock near my place of seclusion, which is the origin of bird's nests. Because I saved the life of the villager's son. Zhang Shaofei then talked about the origin of this bird's nest.

After listening to Zhang Shaofei tell the origin of this bird's nest, Wang Shaoxiang's eyes overflowed with tears, took the bird's nest, and after taking a closer look, he said emotionally: "Fei'er, you have such filial piety, you are really my good son." ”

Zhang Shaofei said apologetically: "Mother, after I left home, I couldn't take care of you at home, which really hurt you." ”

Wang Shaoxiang looked very bland: "I am destined to be cheap, and I will suffer all my life." ”

Between the mother and son talking, Zhang Shaofei found that Wang Shaoxiang was tickling his body with his hands from time to time, leaned over, and asked with concern: "Mother, what's wrong with you?" ”

"I didn't ...... It's nothing ......" Although Wang Shaoxiang's mouth replied like this, the itching on her body could not be controlled for a while, and she involuntarily scratched the itch.

The flames of the oil lamp on the table were still shaking and flickering, and Zhang Shaofei took a serious look at Wang Shaoxiang's skin at this time, and saw that there were many red spots of different sizes, high and low on it, so he pointed to her skin and asked, "Ah, mother, how did you make it like this?" ”

Wang Shaoxiang frowned: "I don't know what's going on." Since that day when I went to Taishan to cut the grass, I once got into a bush, and accidentally sprained my foot when I went down the mountain, and when I went to bed that night, I felt hot all over my body, and my skin became more and more itchy. ”

Zhang Shaofei stretched out his left hand to Wang Shaoxiang: "Mother, I'll take the pulse for you." ”

Zhang Shaofei is certain in saying this. When he stayed overnight in Longshan Temple on the way to settle in Fengshan Village, Xinzhou, he was taught by an old monk, which can be said to be no longer what it used to be.

"Okay, I'll take a look tonight to see if our Wang family really has a Langzhong who can cure diseases." When Wang Shaoxiang saw Zhang Shaofei say this, he stretched out his right hand.

Zhang Shaofei put his index finger, middle finger, and ring finger on the back of Wang Shaoxiang's wrist and mouth, and the index was designated inch, the middle finger was designated off, and the name was designated ruler, and listened to Wang Shaoxiang's pulse image with a sigh of relief.

After Zhang Shaofei looked, smelled, asked, and cut, he said: "Mother, your tongue is now red, moss is yellow, and your pulse is slippery, which is a sign of the heat and prosperity of the epidemic virus. Now the heat poison is entangled in the five organs, and if you want to heal, you should clear the heat, cool the blood, and detoxify. ”

Wang Shaoxiang was a little convinced: "Ah, Fei'er, although I don't understand the pathology you talked about, you have a way to say it, it seems that you know how to see a doctor." This disease may be caused by my inattention to what I have eaten recently. ”

Zhang Shaofei analyzed: "Mother, you don't know how to regulate eating and drinking on weekdays, and you may have inadvertently touched the trees on the mountain that day, which caused skin allergies and redness, swelling and inflammation. If you are sick, you should be treated in time. A Jin Bo in the village is a famous Langzhong in Sixiang, and he is very capable of treating skin and other strange and incurable diseases on weekdays, have you ever seen this disease with him? ”

"I've looked for Ah Jinbo many times," Wang Shaoxiang sighed and shook helplessly, "Ah Jinbo once prescribed me mountain herbs, and I followed his instructions to wash my body with medicinal water while taking medicine, but it didn't have any effect at all. ”

Zhang Shaofei said inexplicably: "The prescription prescribed at the beginning is not good, you can ask Ah Jinbo to change the prescription to another one." ”

Wang Shaoxiang complained: "Ah Jinbo also changed several prescriptions for me, and said that he increased the dosage, but it has not improved. Finally, he spread out his hands and said that he had tried his best and that there was nothing he could do. ”

Zhang Shaofei said again: "Since Uncle Jin in the village can't cure your illness, you can find another good doctor from other places." ”

Dark clouds piled up on Wang Shaoxiang's face: "Quarantine Ah Quanbo has found three Lang Zhong for me and prescribed me a few doses of medicine, but it still does not improve, but my illness is getting worse and worse." Alas, the doctor came and went to get an orange, but it never got better, and now, I have to accept my fate. At my age, I don't think I can live long in the world, forget it. ”

"Mother, don't be so pessimistic," Zhang Shaofei bit his lip and groaned, "There is no difficulty in the world that cannot be overcome, I will find a way to treat you." ”
