Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Evil in the Little Iron
The sky was bright.
The droplets of water that rolled down from under the eaves lingered at the sharp convex corners, but eventually they were pushed by other droplets and smashed helplessly into the puddles on the ground, causing a circle of ripples.
A few of the clothes that had been soaked for a long time were put on the shelves erected in the house, and in the middle of the night they had already dripped.
Tie Niang leaned on Tie Han's shoulder and fell asleep deeply, while Tie Han hugged Xiao Tie and leaned against the wall on the kang and fell asleep, on the kang, at their feet, there were several wooden basins stained with water.
Bai Xiaoxin was naked, wearing a pair of pants wide enough to fit his three legs, one leg hung down on the ground, leaning on the other side of the kang where there was a wall, holding a steamed bun and an oblique sword in his arms, his eyes were closed, and his head was slightly drooping, while Su Ling was wearing the old clothes of Tie Niang, holding a cloth wrap in his arms, leaning on his shoulder and falling asleep deeply.
If there are no other surprises.
The Iron Man felt like he had been awakened by a ball of fire.
So he opened his eyes in a daze, and looked down into his bosom.
It's Xiao Tie, Tie Han yawned, but he complained a little about himself in his heart, how could he still treat his child as a fireball?
Tie Han tilted his head, intending to continue sleeping, although the rain last night kept him busy all night, but Tie Han's mood was very happy.
Nothing made him happier than a good harvest.
In the process of falling asleep in a daze, Tie Han could still think of this, so a simple black face couldn't help but smile.
After a movement, it was inevitable that the shoulders would be involved, so the iron lady who was leaning on his shoulders woke up tiredly.
"Mother-"
Tie Niang turned her head, she also had the urge to continue sleeping, but the slight shouts in her ears made her a little upset after a tiring night.
Still don't let people rest?
Tie Niang opened her eyes very reluctantly, looked around the house, and looked for a while, and then stopped at Xiao Tie.
Now she was finally sober, and she could be sure that the disturbing cry was from her own little iron.
Did you dream about me?
Tie Niang looked at Xiao Tie, thinking, the upset in her heart gradually disappeared, she reached out and gently touched Xiao Tie's wet hair, looking at her daughter with some pity.
However, her hand, with such a stroke, went from her hair to her face, and finally stopped at Xiao Tie's head, and it was difficult to stop it anymore.
"Tiezi, wake up, wake up!" Tie Niang suddenly noticed that something was wrong, and even her sleepiness disappeared suddenly, she quickly got up from Tie Han's shoulder, and tried her best to arouse Tie Han who was still asleep.
On the other side of the kang, Bai Xiaoxin's eyes opened and closed when Tie Han was awake, but after hearing a sharp, even frightened voice, he raised his head and looked at Tie Niang, whose face was not very good.
Su Ling was suddenly woken up on Bai Xiaoxin's shoulder, and she was so frightened that she tilted her head and hit Bai Xiaoxin's neck.
"What, what's wrong?" Su Ling looked sleepy, but he still cheered up and turned his head directly to look at Tie Niang, "What's going on?"
The iron man, who had returned to sleep, faced the situation of last night again, but he finally chose to compromise under the call of his wife and opened his eyes very reluctantly.
"Xiao Tie doesn't seem to be quite right!" Tie Niang hurriedly motioned to Tie Han to let go of the hand holding Xiao Tie, and she reached out to take Xiao Tie herself.
"What's wrong?" the iron man muttered, glanced at Su Ling and Bai Xiaoxin on the kang, and didn't speak.
"Our little iron is so hot!" Tie Niang said anxiously, "It's so hot!"
"It's ...... Sick?" Tie Han scratched his head, asked with some uncertainty, and then looked at Xiao Tie's red cheeks with some puzzlement.
"Couldn't it be that you have fallen for the evil poison?"
Tie Niang thought about it, and her face changed in an instant.
She had seen how miserable the people in the village had died when they had been poisoned.
It is said that you can't eat, you can't sleep well, and you have a hard time talking.
The most serious one, Tie Niang visited the village, dragged on for seven days, thought that the disease would get better on its own, and invited a doctor to come and see, but because it cost a lot of money, the family refused the doctor to receive treatment, and finally the man died, did not talk to the family, and went to sleep.
And that person, Tie Niang knows, is Tie Niang's friend, and also married into this village, but he was one step ahead of her in his sleep, even if he went to visit her, he never woke up to say goodbye to her.
Iron Niang's heart pounded, she still remembered how her friend had first been ill, and how thin she was when she left.
"Xiao Tie!!Xiao Tie!!"
Tie Niang stroked her daughter's face, tears came down, and she said eagerly, "Wake up, wake up!"
"What, what's wrong?" Tie Han was startled by Tie Niang's appearance, and suddenly panicked, "What about a good crop today, why are you crying?
"You!" Tie Niang stumbled to the ground, almost didn't fall, and hurriedly took the shoes on the side of the futon and put them on, "Xiao Tie is sick, I'll go find the village doctor!"
"Ahh
"It's evil!, it's evil!," Iron Niang screamed, and hurriedly rushed out of the house.
"Lady, you wait for me, I'll go with you!"
The iron man hurriedly shouted, took off the shoe cover, and went out shirtless.
"Evil?"
Su Ling was shocked by this change and sobered up, and secretly doubted in his heart, isn't the evil in the southern Xinjiang witchcraft?
Thanks to Bai Yunyun's medical book, Su Ling also learned some sayings similar to witchcraft in southern Xinjiang after learning some prescriptions for medicine.
But Xiao Tie has been here for the past few days, most of the time he is either with the Tie family or with himself, when has he been in contact with people in southern Xinjiang?
Bai Xiaoxin was shocked by their reaction, and hurriedly checked the steamed buns in his arms.
Fortunately, the steamed bun was not as red as the kid just now.
By the way, the kid couldn't wake up.
Bai Xiaoxin thought about it, pursed her lips, and looked solemn.
He stretched out his hand and pinched Mantou's arm slightly.
"Wow-"
The earth-shattering cry directly frightened Su Ling beside him to jump up, and looked at the steamed bun in Bai Xiaoxin's arms with a blank expression.
"Why did the steamed buns cry so much all of a sudden?" asked Su Ling puzzled, and couldn't help but reach out and check the steamed buns.
"She's fine. ”
Bai Xiaoxin breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and hurriedly coaxed steamed buns on his face.
Fortunately, the steamed bun is not evil.
