Chapter 182
Mu Li straightened up, glanced at her left foot wrapped in a rice dumpling, and then looked to the next door: "You two come in."

Nanny Zhong and Ma Liu rushed in as if they had received the emperor's amnesty.

Ma Liu didn't pay attention to his feet because he was running too fast, so he fell down.

Ate a mouthful of dirt.

"Pooh!"

"Pooh!"

He poohed several times, and was about to stand up on the ground, when he raised his head, his expression suddenly changed.

An iron nail about two inches long stuck straight at a place less than three inches away from him.

Ma Liu was so frightened that he got up from the ground in a panic, put his hands behind his back, sat on the ground with his buttocks, and backed up again and again.

He dragged out a clear mark on the ground.

"nail!"

"There are nails!"

His face turned green with fright, and his voice trembled.

If he had run faster just now, the nail would have pierced his forehead directly.

The more Ma Liu thought about it, the more afraid he became.

There was a thin layer of sweat on the back.

Seeing his cowardly appearance, Nanny Zhong lowered her face: "A nail is a nail, so why make such a fuss?"

"A big man is so frightened when he sees a nail, it's too embarrassing for our Qi family."

"It's not like this." Ma Liu patted his ass|the dust on his ass walked around the nail, "I almost plunged into the nail just now, I was scared by this."

Mu Li walked over and picked up the nails and put them in the medicine box.

This dilapidated house seems to have a lot of iron nails. If people don't pay attention, they may be injured by the nails.

For example, Madam Qi had three iron nails pierced into her left foot. If the nails were any longer, they would have pierced her instep.

Mu Li handed the medicine bag to Nanny Zhong: "This is the medicine prescribed for your wife. It has the effect of reducing inflammation, relieving pain and nourishing blood. Remember to fry it and feed it to your wife after you return home."

"Three times a day."

Speaking of this, Mu Li paused for a moment, glanced at the left foot that was wrapped like a rice dumpling, and this time even his voice became serious.

"The next half month is a dangerous period. You must always pay attention to your wife's injury. Once you find that she has symptoms such as general fatigue, dizziness, and headache, you must go to the doctor as soon as possible. Don't delay for a moment!"

Nanny Zhong was frightened by her serious expression.

She didn't expect that the madam was just going back to her natal home. She was fine when she went there, but she was like this when she came back. If Mr. Qi saw that his beloved madam had suffered such a big crime, he would probably be heartbroken again. up.

"This, isn't this alright?"

Mu Li said: "It's still too early to talk about it, but don't worry too much, worry, as long as tetanus is discovered in time, it can still be cured."

Grandma Zhong's eyes darkened, and she was about to fall backwards.

Ma Liu's eyes were quick and his hands were quick, and he quickly grabbed Nanny Zhong's arm.

"Mommy..."

He looked at Nanny Zhong worriedly.

Grandma Zhong gave birth to a child when she was young. When the child was playing with mud outside at the age of eight, she accidentally stabbed her finger with something inside. At that time, Grandma Zhong used the local method of plant ash to apply to the wound. I heard that The wound will heal quickly.

As a result, within half a month, the wound on the child's hand was not only getting bigger and bigger, festering and pus-filled, but also dizzy, had a headache, and the muscles were tight. Later, he had difficulty breathing and convulsions all over the body. In this way, the child suffered another seven days or so, and finally leave her.

Nanny Zhong suddenly raised her tearful eyes, with a sad expression on her face: "Can I ask you a question?"

Mu Li said: "Ask."

Then Nanny Zhong told Mu Li about her daughter's previous symptoms.

"Are these symptoms also the tetanus you mentioned?"

Mu Li really didn't want to tell Nanny Zhong this cruel fact, but the reality is so cruel.

Grandma Zhong's daughter was infected with tetanus.

If she hadn't put ash on her daughter's wound in the first place, the wound might not have become infected, or if they had paid attention to it when symptoms first appeared, maybe her daughter would have survived.

But there is no if in life.

The moment she saw Mu Li nodding, tears finally burst out of her eyes.

"Then, she, she also got this disease because of an injury on her hand?"

Mu Li hummed lightly.

What she didn't say was that applying untreated plant ash to the wound could easily cause the wound to become infected with tetanus.

Now that the Sri Lankan is gone, there is no need for her to tell Nanny Zhong this cruel fact, lest this elderly mother will live in self-blame and remorse for the rest of her life.

"The rain is getting lighter, the rain is getting lighter."

"We can finally go home."

Wei Yan's excited voice came from outside.

"A Li, it's raining less outside, let's go home at this time, shall we?"

She really wanted to lie on the bed, eat sunflower seeds, and pet the cat at the same time, wouldn't it be better than sheltering from the rain in this dilapidated house?
……

On the way, old man Mu asked Chen Xiao with a smile: "I remember that it's not Xiu Mu today, why are you back?"

Chen Xiao was sitting in front of the car, and when he heard the words, he turned his head to look at the old man Mu, and said, "Master's mother accidentally fell down, and he went back to take care of the old mother, so let us take a rest for a day in advance."

"Ah Qing wanted to come back, but it rained heavily in the morning, so he wanted to wait for the rain to stop before leaving. I didn't wait for him."

The old man Mu thought that Chen Xiao was worried about the Zhang family at home, so he warned: "The rain in the morning was too fierce, if you encounter this kind of weather again in the future, you should find a place to hide from the rain first, and don't come back in a hurry."

"There's nothing wrong at home now. Your mother is watching over us, so you don't have to worry."

Moreover, the two families are close to each other, and the mother-in-law has a good relationship with the Zhang family. He likes Chen Xiao, and if something really happens to his family, they will definitely lend a helping hand.

Chen Xiao glanced casually at Mu Li who was sitting behind him, and curled the corner of his lower lip.

"Understood, Uncle Mu."

……

Afternoon, rainy and sunny.

Butcher Li didn't set up his stall today. Coincidentally, Mu Li didn't buy the ingredients for tomorrow's stall because of the heavy rain. Set up a stall.

After a simple lunch, Mu Li called Wei Yan and went out of the house together.

She planned to make a lotus leaf-wrapped chicken by stepping on the blooming lotus tail.

Xiao Muxuan, Xiao Dalang and Xue Datou heard that there was chicken to eat tonight, and they were all so happy that they started to drool.

They formed a formation of eagles catching chickens and followed Mu Li and Wei Yan step by step.

Xiao Muxuan said: "My sister said that today I want to eat chicken."

Xiao Dalang corrected: "It's chicken wrapped in lotus leaves."

Xue Datou stuffed his index finger into his mouth: "I like to eat chicken."

The three little ones looked at Mu Li in unison, with sparkling eyes: "Sister, we want to eat chicken wrapped in lotus leaves today, and we must be full."

San Xiao only wanted to eat, so she was so obedient at the moment.

Mu Li didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "It's kind of hard to get enough to eat."

Xiao Muxuan raised his hand and said generously, "Then I'll just eat a chicken leg."

Xiao Dalang also raised his hand: "I'll just eat chicken legs, too."

Xue Datou jumped up and raised his hand: "And I, Drumstick."

Wei Yan also raised her hand, begrudgingly: "Then I will only eat chicken drumsticks, and leave the other good meat for you to eat."

Seeing the four of them sacrificing themselves, Mu Li was angry and funny.

"I thank you all."

"You're welcome."

The four said in unison.

"That's what we should do."

The four of them talked and laughed all the way to the pond. Some of the lotus flowers in the pond had withered, and the big and round lotus leaves rolled with crystal clear water droplets, which were as thrillingly beautiful as elves.

Mu Li rolled up his trouser legs, took off his shoes and socks, and looked at the three little radish heads, as well as Wei Yan.

"The four of you are waiting for me on the shore, and you are not allowed to go to dangerous places, do you hear me?"

"Otherwise, you won't be able to eat chicken legs."

Mu Li pretended to be fierce and said evilly.

"Roger that!"

"We are resolutely obedient and will not go to dangerous places."

Mu Li smiled and touched the heads of the three of them, then suddenly heard someone calling her.

"A Li—"

She turned her head and saw that it was Chen Xiao who had changed into coarse linen clothes but couldn't conceal his refined demeanor.
