Chapter 687 Incense Ash
Update, please guaranteed monthly tickets, genuine subscriptions, and recommended tickets.
Since Mr. Lian said that, naturally no one in the old house would take the initiative to ask Zhou to hire a doctor. Until the evening, Mr. Lian saw that Zhou was still the same, so he guessed that Zhou did not get any advantage when he went to Lianman'er's house this time, so he was not happy.
In the past, when encountering this situation, someone had to coax the Zhou family. And whoever did not let the Zhou family take advantage of it would be the most effective. But in the current situation, it is just when someone is asking for help, so how can I let others be low and do something small?
Even the old man knew Zhou's temperament well. While he was heartbroken, he was inevitably worried.
Old Master Lian finally asked Lian Lan'er and Jiang about their details about their visit to Lian Man'er's house.
"…………… The old lady knelt down to Aunt Fourth…… The Fourth Aunt and Man'er said that they had sent someone to find the Fourth Uncle and Wulang yesterday and asked to wait for the letter." Jiang said in a few simple words, skipping over some details.
Lian Lan'er sat blankly beside Zhou, without saying a word.
"I've used her old trick again, which is not worry-free." Old Master Lian sighed, "Why are you back like this?"
Based on experience, Mr. Lian judged that Zhou had knelt down and grabbed Zhang again, and asked Zhang to agree to help Lian Lan'er. Then, how could Zhou's flag win, come back so listlessly?
"……………Aunt Four wants to get pregnant with another child, but hasn't gotten pregnant for the past two years. He said it was because... he was so injured that he talked about the lost child...………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
"It's right, it's right!" The old man even believed that Zhou was frightened.
It is different from pretending to be sick without illness. It is a big deal to be scared. Even the old man and Zhou often quarrel, but they are unforgivable when they fight, and they have both taken advantage of it. But when the old couple is at this age, what they need most is mutual support. No matter how filial the children and grandchildren are, there are many things that cannot be replaced by their husbands and wife.
Seeing that Zhou was calm at this time, the old man Lian remembered Zhou's good luck after he had a stroke. For example, how Zhou served him carefully after he had a stroke. For example, Lian Shouxin and Zhang sent him to the cloth, and how Zhou lighted the lamp and boiled oil and carefully sewed the clothes for him.
Only two sets of clothes were completed in spring and summer, and most of them were not completed.
Even the old man was soft-hearted and thought about asking Zhou to hire a doctor. But then he thought, he still couldn't afford to lose this person. Compared to pretending to be sick and asking the doctor to prescribe sweet medicine when he was not sick, this caused the life of his daughter-in-law and grandson and was scared to hire a doctor. It was even more unreasonable.
Fortunately, for this kind of symptoms, some of the village households have local recipes. The most commonly used and said that the most effective one is drinking incense ash water. Like most farmers, there is a small Buddha niche in the house of the old man and Zhou, which contains a Buddha statue. Zhou burns incense very attentively, and the small incense burning was already full of incense ash.
Even the old man asked Jiang to boil water, and mixed half a cup of incense ash into a cup of water, and mixed it into a thick gray-black soup.
Old Master Lian watched He and Jiang pour the incense ash water into Zhou.
It is naturally difficult to drink incense ash water. After Zhou was forced to drink incense ash water, he immediately coughed violently and turned from white to red due to stimulation.
This incense ash water actually had a effect. Zhou no longer lay down, but just sat cross-legged with his eyelids hanging down, muttering something in his mouth, not knowing what to say.
Even the old man guessed that Zhou had held his breath and didn't let it go, and he always had to be humble for a while before he could heal, so he didn't care.
Zhou did not make a fuss, and Lian Lan'er secretly felt relieved when she didn't mention what happened at Lian Man'er's house. She was worried that if she thought about it carefully, it would be difficult for her to explain. After all, when she was at Lian Man'er's house, she had obviously betrayed Zhou to please Lian Man'er.
Lian Lan'er knew that Zhou had always been a person who was unwilling to suffer any loss. This time she suffered such a big loss, but she didn't say anything. Lian Lan'er thought about it and believed that Zhou could not speak, because she was embarrassed at Lian Man'er's house and was at a disadvantage. Thinking of this, Lian Lan'er breathed a sigh of relief.
She would never think about whether Zhou kept silent because she was unwilling to mention her betrayal, and it was to care about her. She only hoped that Lian Shouxin and Wulang would come back early, so she secretly stuffed a few copper coins for Liulang and asked Liulang to guard the village entrance. Once Lian Shouxin or Wulang came back, she would come and tell her immediately.
Another sleepless night passed, but neither Shouxin nor Goro came back.
Even Lan'er's eyes turned red and she couldn't eat breakfast. She knelt in front of the old man and cried to death. She nodded and said something. Even the old man was a little surprised, but he was not panicked.
"There must be all sent out, not all of them. There is no certain place for people. It is difficult to find them. You have never been far away and don't understand the difficulty of going out." The old man Lian said to Lian Lan'er, "Don't think about it randomly. What kind of person is the fourth brother, I feel like a mirror in my heart. There must be something delayed."
The so-called shadow of a man's name and tree, even the old man knows the character and temperament of his children and grandchildren.
"Dad, I can trust Lao Si and Goro, but now, in that room, I think Man'er and Lao Si's wife are in charge." Lian Lan'er said.
"That's also a member of the old Lian family." Mr. Lian naturally heard Lian Lan'er's implication and said firmly, "If you want to talk about character, whoever is better than you."
Lian Lan'er was immediately choked.
Even the old man was dissatisfied with Lian Lan'er, but he was just a guest when he came home, so it was hard to scold him directly. You must know that it was because Lian Lan'er's instigation that Zhou would ask for cotton silk to wear, which made the city full of storms. This time, the reason why Lian Lan'er fought with Zhou was because Lian Lan'er was urging fire next to him.
Compared to Zhou's daughter, Mr. Lian was more concerned about his son. When Lian Lan'er said a few bad things about brothers and his wife in front of Zhou, Mr. Zhou would listen, and would also be unable to get along with his son and daughter-in-law because of this. But if the same words were said to Mr. Lian, it would only make Mr. Lian angry.
In normal times, even Lan'er would not make such a mistake, but she is really anxious and panic now.
The old man Lian Lan'er couldn't speak, and turned around and wanted to sue Zhou again. But no matter what she said, Zhou was listless.
In the eyes of some people, this day was very slow.
After a while, there was still no news about Lian Shouxin and Goro. Lian Lan'er's mouth was covered with blisters.
"Dad," Lian Lan'er knelt down to Mr. Lian again, "········ I must have done my best. Please go over and take a look..."
This time, even Lan'er didn't dare to say a bad thing.
Old Master Lian brought Lian Lan'er and Lian Jizu to the door of Lian Man'er's house and was immediately invited into the front hall. They were invited into the front hall, and Lian Man'er was already waiting there.
There was a kang table on the kang, with pen, ink, paper and inkstone on it. Lian Man'er sat next to him, as if he was dealing with something just now.
Seeing that Mr. Lian brought people in, Lian Man'er stood up and greeted Mr. Lian, and asked Mr. Lian to sit down and have someone to put tea and snacks on it.
Lian Lan'er couldn't help but peek at Lian Man'er. There was no such hospitality yesterday. Lian Man'er today was different from yesterday. She was extremely respectful to Mr. Lian.
Everyone sat down, and before Mr. Lian could speak, Lian Man'er spoke first.
"I just wanted to go to the old house to see you. By the way, I didn't expect you to be here now." Lian Man'er smiled and said, "My father was tripped there..."
After hearing Lian Man'er's words, Lian Lan'er naturally looked dissatisfied, and even the old man was slightly moved.
"What happened?" The old man asked immediately, "Don't look at me at home, I've heard from people. The place where your father went, there were many people who came from the west. Those people were not along the way with us, they were all barbarians, and they would take out their knives at any time. I was worried at that time when you were running a ranch there."
Lian Man'er smiled, and her eyes slammed the old man Lian and Lian Lan'er. She naturally saw that both of them changed their faces. However, one was worried that Lian Shuxin would not come back and could not save her own people. I was afraid, and at the same time, I was also suspicious that it was her and Zhang who deliberately delayed it.
And the old man Lian still had his own son in his heart, and immediately thought of Lian Shuxin's safety.
"It's not like using a knife, it's just a little trouble. Fortunately, with Manager Chen following me, my father went out this time because he was afraid of these things, so he brought more people. The news sent back today was fine, my father was fine." Lian Man'er said.
"That's good, that's good." Old Master Lian was relieved when he heard Lian Man'er say this. "From the way, if there is any trouble over there, don't let your father go. If you have a capable shopkeeper and in charge of the business, just let them go."
"My mother and we both stopped my father. My father didn't listen. He said he wouldn't go by himself, so he couldn't rest assured. From now on, we will definitely have to persuade him more and stop him more." Lian Man'er smiled.
“Yes, that’s right.
"The old man nodded and laughed, "Your father looks easy to talk, but he is also a little stubborn."
I have to say that even the old man is a better person to communicate with. Such a harmonious atmosphere is absolutely impossible in Zhou's family.
Lian Lan'er was anxious when she saw that Mr. Lian and Lian Man'er were only concerned about Lian Shuxin. Although she was anxious, Lian Lan'er had seen Lian Man'er's power, so she did not dare to interrupt, but she kept winking at Mr. Lian.
Unfortunately, even the old man didn't seem to see even Lan'er's sign at all, and he didn't react at all.
