The history of struggle of peasant girls

Chapter 195 Medicine

Although the communication was not smooth, Han Qianluo couldn't help asking: "Can you tell me what's going on with this bug?"

"In my hometown, this kind of bug is called the devil red bug. As long as it touches the human skin, it will burrow into the human body, and then produce many small bugs in the human body, although these small bugs will not Growing up, but it will destroy our body, but it can't be seen on the surface, it just coughs up blood occasionally." The woman explained carefully.

"You mean my brother coughed up blood because of this bug?" Han Qianluo couldn't help but interjected.

"Yes." The woman nodded and continued to explain, "After this kind of bug penetrates into the human body, there will be no abnormalities for a long period of time, just like a healthy person, but once it becomes unconscious, It means that the body has been almost destroyed."

Han Qianluo was startled when he heard this, his body was almost destroyed, so he could still live, so he quickly asked the woman: "How long will it take for my brother's body to recover after the mother worm is killed?"

But the woman just shook her head and said: "I don't know either. In my hometown, the female worms were found shortly after they got into the body, and then killed the worms. They were already unconscious. I haven't yet I've seen people who made a full recovery."

"You mean it won't work?" Han Qianluo bent his eyes wide.

The woman lowered her head and thought for a while, then said with some embarrassment: "It's not that it's going to get better, it's just that the medicinal materials needed to recuperate the body are too expensive, and even rich people can't afford it, so most people are at this point. Just give up." The woman paused at this point, and then suggested in a low voice, "Little girl, I think you should give up."

Han Qianluo said without thinking, "I won't give up. No matter how much money it costs, I will still take good care of my brother's body."

The woman didn't persuade her to give up after listening to it, but her eye circles were a little red, as if recalling some sad past, she lowered her head and whispered: "You are so kind to your brother, I have the courage to do so in New Year's Eve." alright."

"A brother of yours is also infected with this bug?" Han Qianluo asked reflexively.

"It's not my brother, it's my child. He had a very serious disease, which cost a lot of money to cure, but I didn't have that much money at the time, so I didn't get any treatment. I just watched him die." The woman Speaking of this, I couldn't help covering cheap with both hands, and wept softly.

At this time, Han Sanwei came in from the outside with a paper and brush, looked at the woman with some doubts, and then handed the things to Han Qianluo.

"Ma'am, don't be sad. Those are things in the past. You will have children in the future." Han Qianluo comforted, but her comfort was really ineffective.

However, the woman also realized that crying at a stranger's house was really a faux pas, so she quickly wiped away her tears and said sadly, "I'm really sorry for making you laugh."

"It's nothing, it's all human nature." Han Qianluo said.

The woman took the pen and paper and began to write the house, and quickly wrote the prescription. After handing it to Han Qianluo, she told her again: "You must drink this medicine for three hours, not less than a quarter of an hour. Add a little more water at the beginning, and don't add water to it halfway through the boil."

"Okay, I'll remember it." Han Qianluo nodded and said, carefully put away the prescription, and then sent the woman out.

When she walked to the door, the woman suddenly said: "I don't understand, how could your brother be infected with this kind of bug? Did your brother also go to my hometown?"

"Is this kind of bug only found in your hometown?" Han Qianluo asked.

The woman nodded and said: "Yes, and in our hometown, there are not many such bugs. If you want to find them, it is difficult to find them. If they are everywhere, wouldn't it be bad?"

Han Qianluo had been hearing this woman say her hometown before, and she didn't have an auntie before. Now it seems that her hometown is really unusual, so she asked casually, "Where is your hometown?"

"I'm from Xiangxi, and I've only been here for four years."

Han Qianluo was taken aback, and turned her head to ask, "Xiangxi? Then why did you come so far away from your hometown?" Moreover, she suddenly realized that it was impossible for her elder brother to have been there before, If you haven't been there, how can you be infected with this kind of bug? There must be something wrong with it.

"I came here to look for relatives. After my parents died, my uncle kicked me out. I had no choice but to come here to look for relatives." The woman explained.

Han Qianluo sent her to the border of Qianyangli before stopping, then turned around and went back. After returning, he quickly went out with the pharmacy, went to the city to grab the medicine, and it was almost evening when he got home.

"Sister San, you are finally back." Han Sanwei came out and said.

Han Qianluo took out a pack of medicine in his hand, handed the rest to her and said, "Take it in the house and put it away. I'll fry this medicine first." After speaking, he walked into the kitchen and put The iron pot on the stove was taken down, and then an old earthenware pot was found and placed on the stove eye, poured all the medicine into it, filled it with a pot of water, then turned on the fire and started to boil the medicine.

After lighting the firewood, Han Qianluo didn't need to stay here all the time, so he went to have dinner first, and then continued to come over to guard the decoction.

For three full hours, Han Qianluo looked at the hourglass, not daring to miss it for a quarter of an hour. He took the medicine for three full hours. After the medicine was boiled, it was Haishi, which was about ten to eleven o'clock.

After the medicine was boiled, Han Qianluo carefully put the medicine in a bowl, and then went to sleep. This was the last time she slept since she came to this world. She fell asleep as soon as she touched the pillow. Sleepy.

She slept too late at night, so it was naturally too late to wake up in the morning. When Han Qianluo woke up the next day, it was already full light, and she was so scared that she got up from the bed quickly.

The first thing Han Qianluo did after waking up was not to wash or eat, but to bring the medicine to Han Qingquan. After feeding him to drink, he ordered Han Sanwei to fry another medicine before going to have breakfast.

While Han Qianluo was having breakfast, Feng Zhi came over again, and immediately asked, "Qianluo, what about Qingquan?"

"I didn't find the sorcerer, only his wife. Her wife also knows some medical skills. After she came to see it, she said that these bugs were in my brother's body before. She said that she accidentally went to Xiangxi to get infected." Han Qianluo said simply. explained it again, and then continued to eat breakfast.

Feng Zhi sat down on the stool next to her, and said with some doubts: "Xiangxi? When did Qingquan go to Xiangxi? Why haven't I heard of it?"

"But the wizard's wife said that kind of worms can only be found in her hometown of Xiangxi, and there are no other places." Han Qianluo said, "So I was thinking, if the eldest brother has not been to Xiangxi, then the worms on his body will No one put it in his body on purpose."

"But who would be so vicious?" Feng Zhi frowned and said, thinking about it seriously, "Have you offended anyone?"

This question stabilized Han Qianluo. After thinking about it for a long time, she couldn't remember who she had offended. If she really wanted to say who hated them, it would be Wei Zhen, but she didn't think Wei Zhen It would be such a vicious person, and not everyone can get this bug. Wei Zhen's family is an ordinary commoner. They lived in this place during their time and have never been to Xiangxi at all, so it is unlikely that it is Wei Zhen. .

"I really can't remember who I offended." Han Qianluo said with some distress. If the real culprit behind the scenes is not found out, even if he is cured this time, he may not be able to return Han Qingquan next time.

"This is troublesome." Feng Zhi said in a low voice.

Han Qianluo was also thinking about this question while eating. She didn't remember who she had offended at all. Maybe this person was hiding deeply, but it could also be the enemy of the elder brother. I can't say for sure now. I can only wait until Han Qingquan wakes up. Only after that can we know.

At this time, Han Sanwei shouted loudly in the kitchen: "Sister San, the water is boiling." Han Qianluo put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hand, walked into the kitchen and lifted the lid of the pottery pot where the medicine was boiled. It was boiling, so he said: "Now start to boil on a small fire. The fire can't be too big, or the water will be boiled dry." After speaking, he walked back and ate the remaining two mouthfuls of rice.

"What kind of medicine is Sanwei brewing?" Feng Zhi asked.

"The wizard's wife prescribed the medicine. She said that there is a female worm in my brother's body. If I don't kill the female worm, my brother will definitely die. So now I want to use this medicine to kill the worm." Han Qianluo explained.

After finishing the last few mouthfuls of food, Han Qianluo put all the things on the table into the kitchen, wiped the table clean, and washed the dishes.

"Is there really a big worm in Qingquan's body?" Feng Zhi asked in disbelief.

Han Qianluo thought for a while and replied: "There should be some. I saw my elder brother spit out a bunch of small bugs yesterday with my own eyes. These small bugs must have been born by big bugs."

Feng Zhi sighed and said, "I hope Qingquan's illness can feel better." After a pause, he sighed again, "Oh, why are things like this happening all over your family? My sister and brother-in-law passed away early, leaving the few of you alone The little one, after finally growing up and living a better life, this kind of thing happened again."

Han Qianluo put the cleaned dishes and chopsticks into the cupboard and said, "It's just bad luck." Then he untied the pottery pot for boiling the medicine to have a look, gave Han Sanwei a few words, and went back to Continue to work in the main hall.

Seeing that there was nothing else to do, Feng Zhi took his leave and left.
