After Da'an and Xiao'an introduced themselves, they lowered their heads and said lonely, "My mother is sick and has no money to see a doctor, so we wanted to come to Yangcheng to sell firewood to earn money and treat my mother."

"What about your father?"

Da'an replied, "Eight years ago, there was turmoil in the north, and Liang was recruiting troops. My father was forcibly conscripted into the army. He never came back after leaving. People in the village said that my father died outside."

"Eight years ago?" If he hasn't come back for eight years, then this person is really struggling to survive.

Unexpectedly, Great Liang also had the practice of forced recruitment into the army, so why were the three brothers of the Yu family not conscripted?

She would have to find a chance to ask Yu Changhe later.

"What disease does your mother have? What did the doctor say? Can it be cured?"

"My mother had been coughing non-stop and had a fever some time ago. After taking the folk prescription given by our village aunt, she got better for a few days. But it got worse in the past few days and the folk prescription didn't work anymore."

"Does your mother still have a fever now?" Yu Xiaolian asked hurriedly.

If this person has a fever that doesn't go away, that's not a good thing. If the fever continues, it will kill someone.

"Well, I covered my mother with several quilts, but she still said it was cold."

Yesterday they sold firewood and went to the drug store with the half-money given by Yu Xiaolian, hoping to grab some medicine for his mother.

But the clerk at the drug store said that there was no prescription and he couldn't just take any medicine. He didn't know what his mother's disease was and couldn't prescribe the right medicine. He asked them to take his mother to the drug store and check her pulse before he could take the medicine.

Da'an and Xiao'an planned to use a trolley to drag his mother to the city, but his mother refused to come, so he said that instead of spending this unjust money, he could just take a few more home remedies at home.

After hearing Da'an and Xiao'an's words, Yu Xiaolian felt a little sympathy for An Ziniang. The child lost his father when he was two years old. She worked hard to raise her two sons and suffered a lot.

"Wait a minute, my family also has a folk remedy that helps reduce fever, and it works. I'll take care of my mother."

After Yu Xiaolian finished speaking, she returned to her room through the back door of the house. She remembered that there were antipyretics in the first aid kit in the lounge.

After looking through the medicine box, I found that there are quite a variety of medicines in it, including those for fever, anti-inflammatory, cold, and cough.

She took out the oil paper that Sun bought in town last time, cut it into small pieces as big as the palm of her hand, wrapped five pieces of antipyretic medicine, then took another piece of oil paper and wrapped five pieces of anti-inflammatory medicine, and finally wrapped cold medicine and cough medicine.

medicine.

From the symptoms described by Daan and Xiaoan, her mother must be suffering from severe wind-cold, and these medicines should be enough.

Yu Xiaolian used a marker to mark one, two, and three on the oil paper, then took it out and handed it to Daan and Xiaoan.

"This is a fever-reducing medicine. You can only take one pill at a time. Don't take more..."

Yu Xiaolian had repeatedly told her to the two little ones many times, for fear that they would not remember it and give her mother the wrong medicine again.

Da'an said, "Sister, don't worry, I have remembered everything. We know how to read. My mother knows how to read. She taught us."

"That's great. Don't delay. Go home quickly. It's important to get your mother's fever down first."

Da'an and Xiao'an bowed and thanked Yu Xiaolian again and again before running away side by side.

I don't know if this medicine is useful for An Ziniang. She shouldn't be nosy, but when faced with such two sensible little ones, her damn sympathy began to overflow again.

The dressing on Yu Changhe's leg has not been changed for several days. We should take him out to find a medicine hall in the afternoon. The accident at Huichun Hall that day happened too suddenly, and the medicine was not available.

As soon as Yu Xiaolian mentioned going to see Yu Changhe's legs, Mrs. Sun immediately put down her needle and thread and wanted to go with them.

"I feel like my legs don't hurt so much anymore. I can walk on my own. I want to try walking."

Yu Changhe moved to the kang and was about to put on his shoes and get off the ground, but Mrs. Bie Sun held him back, "No, Doctor Zheng said the other day that your legs can't work hard. Why are you disobedient?"

Yu Changhe was depressed. He had been sitting on the kang like a useless person for the past few days. He stretched out his hands when he was wearing clothes and opened his mouth when he was eating. Even when he went to the hut, he had to be supported by Mrs. Sun.

Although life at home is getting better now, he feels extremely uncomfortable when a grown man is left to rely on his wife and daughter to take care of him and act like a waste all day long.

Yu Xiaolian hitched the carriage, and then she and Sun helped Yu Changhe onto the carriage.

There were many people in the city, and she was afraid that she would not be able to control the carriage well and bump into others, so she simply led the horse in front. Anyway, there was a pharmacy near her home.

So, there was a scene like this on the street. A thin little girl was walking down the street holding a tall red horse.

The tall horse and the thin little girl form a sharp contrast.

Everyone who walks by can't help but look sideways.

When they arrived at the medicine shop, Yu Xiaolian and Sun helped Yu Changhe into the medicine hall. An old man with gray hair and beard first checked Yu Changhe's pulse, then took apart the bamboo board and checked Yu Changhe's injuries.

leg.

“It is impossible for this leg to return to normal, but with good care and treatment, there is still no problem in taking care of myself.

If you can get acupuncture every day, it would be better if you can do it faster. For acupuncture, you need to do it once a day for the first three days, and after three days, you need to do it every three days for half a month, which will help recovery.

Acupuncture costs half a tael for one session, and 3 taels for half a month. If your family is in difficulty, you can do without acupuncture, but it will be better and slower. Which one do you think you would choose?"

Yu Changhe said impatiently, "Acupuncture, we choose acupuncture!"

He hopes very much that he can walk independently as soon as possible.

Although his wife and daughter take good care of him, he doesn't want to be a burden to his family. If he gets better soon, they won't have to do the work of chopping firewood and feeding the horses at home.

The white-bearded doctor immediately asked the boy in the shop to bring hot water to wash off the ointment on Yu Changhe's leg, and then began to give Yu Changhe acupuncture. While injecting the acupuncture, he asked Yu Changhe if he felt anything.

In the past, Yu Changhe had no pain under his knees, but at this moment, he felt pain in his whole leg, as if someone was tapping his hamstring.

The white-bearded man smiled and said that this was a good sign. He also said that if Yu Changhe recovers well, he will not need crutches in the future, but he will have some inclines when walking.

Yu Changhe and Sun were both overjoyed after hearing this.

The white-bearded doctor inserted the needle into Yu Changhe and left it there for about ten minutes before pulling out the silver needle. He also told Yu Changhe to come back for acupuncture tomorrow.

After Mrs. Sun paid for the acupuncture and decoction, the family of three returned home.

After returning home, Yu Changhe sat on the kang and told Mrs. Sun with a happy face that his legs were warm and comfortable, as if they were placed in hot water.

Sun was also very happy and asked Yu Changhe what he wanted to eat at night.

"Whatever you do, I will eat. Whatever you do is delicious."

Yu Changhe looked at Mrs. Sun affectionately. He was lame, but Mrs. Sun never left him. He would never forget this love.

Yu Xiaolian was in the warehouse at this time.

She plans to take out some long-shelf-life foods and other items.

For example, there are two types of shortbread cookies in her supermarket. One is sold by the pound and costs eight yuan per catty. This kind of shortbread is smaller and comes in two flavors, one is white sugar and the other is black sesame.

.

There are only half a box left of the black sesame and white sugar ones. If they were sold, they would probably be gone within a day.
