The days when I was an obstetrician and gynecologist in Chang'an

Chapter 34 Zhongyuan Festival

In the past few days, it was always raining in the middle of the night. In recent days, the high temperature has continued, and the cicadas in the yard make people feel upset.

Li Sanniang took Luzhu'er and Li Silang to spend the morning without any breakfast, so Li Silang climbed a tree and caught four cicadas one by one.

Of course, Li Sanniang and Lu Zhuer cheered Li Silang up under the tree when Li Silang made a move.

The caught cicadas were directly let Li Silang throw them into the stove and roast them. Li Silang wanted to give them to Lu Zhuer, so he asked Li Sanniang to stop them.

Of course, Li Sanniang knows that insects are high in protein, but hey, it’s hard to get over it, so I don’t want to eat it.

Li Sanniang asked Shen Qiuniang from a courtyard to have breakfast together, and Shen Qiuniang was not embarrassed, because she now completely put herself in the position of a servant.

Why do you say that?

Because after she finished her breakfast, she saw that Li Sanniang was taking Lu Zhuer with her, and Mrs. Li was busy in the kitchen alone, so she took the initiative to help clean up the dishes, wash them, and did it really neatly.

Mrs. Li said she didn't need to do it, she still had a head injury and just went back to the house and lay down.

Shen Qiuniang didn't listen and just kept working hard.

After helping Mrs. Li with the kitchen work, do you have any clothes to wash?

Li Sanniang hurriedly said, where are the clothes to be washed?The Li family's clothes are all outsourced to the neighbors.

In the end, Mrs. Li took out a basket and found a mess of threads. Asking Shen Qiuniang to help divide the threads could be regarded as an errand for her.

The second sister-in-law Li also carried Xiao Wulang out of the house, and they sat around and chatted under the jujube tree.

Xiao Wulang is almost two months old, and Mrs. Li's second sister-in-law raised her well during her confinement, and she has enough milk. The little Goro she raised is white, fat and cute. When people see her, they want to hug her like a big fat boy.

Lu Zhuer seemed to have a new "toy". Every time Li Sanniang took her to see Xiao Goro, she would hold Xiao Goro's little hand and say earnestly in sign language, "Goro, you have to hurry up!" When my son grows up, sister is easy to play with."

Then turn around and ask Li Sanniang: "Aniang, when will Goro grow up?"

Just as Lu Zhuer taught Xiao Wulang to call him "Sister", Li Gui came in and sent a post to Li Sanniang.

Li Sanniang quickly took it over and took a look. It turned out that it was written by the old doctor Gao, who said that he had united with more than ten members of the alliance and decided to give Li Sanniang a chance for an interview, and agreed to meet in Shaoyao Room on the second floor of Junyoulai Restaurant five days later.

Holding the post, Li Sanniang began to think, what is the purpose of this alliance?It's better to go back and discuss it with Li's father and Li's second brother.

A few people were talking about their parents, Shen Qiuniang didn't talk much, but she would nod her head to show that she was listening, which was a good reflection, and the time passed by in a blink of an eye.

The weather was too hot, and Li's father asked Li Sanniang to help pick up a pot of refreshing herbal tea. He was going to boil a pot, let it cool, put it in a bucket, and put it at the entrance of the medical hall to provide free to neighbors and people who came to see the doctor to get medicine.

Father Li felt that the temperature in the past few days was abnormal and too hot. He was afraid that people with weak constitutions would not be able to withstand heatstroke or that the disease would not be treated in time, so he decided to provide herbal tea for cooling and relieving heat for free.

This is what Li's father is used to doing all the year round. In the past, it was Li Erxiong who took care of it. Since Li Sanniang is at home this year, let Li Erxiong rest and Li Sanniang will do it.

In the evening, when Brother Li came home from duty, Li Sanniang specially packed the salt and sugar powder she had wrapped in paper in the afternoon for Brother Li, and told Brother Li to take one packet in the morning and one packet in the afternoon when he was on duty during the day, and mix it with water to drink. Down.

This candy was specially bought from a shop, just for Brother Li.

Brother Li didn't see anything, so he dipped his little finger in a little bit and tasted it, "Is it salt and sugar? Sanniang has a heart, brother knows, pay attention, don't worry."

Today is the Ghost Festival, brother Li and the four little ones are on holiday.

In the morning, Brother Li took Mrs. Li, Li Dalang, and Li Erlang to place offerings in front of the memorial tablet of his father, Sun Datou, who had enshrined in his house first, burned incense, and kowtowed one by one before leaving the house.

Then came to Li's father and Li's mother, and together with Li's father, Li's second brother and his family, Li Sanniang and Luzhu'er, they offered tablets to Li's parents, offered incense, and kowtowed one by one.

The others left the house after kowtowing, leaving Mother Li in the house with Father Li.

At this time of year, Li's father is always reticent. Except for Li's eldest brother and Li's sister-in-law who know some inside information, Li's second brother and Li Sanniang don't know much about it. They don't know what happened to the previous generation. Unwilling to forgive Uncle Li who has passed away.

I vaguely knew that it was a human life, but Li's father didn't let me mention it at all.

About half an hour later, Li's father and Li's mother came out of the house.

The whole family, including Shen Qiuniang, who lives in Li's house, went out to take a ride to Xuanduguan to pay respects. Even Xiao Wulang was wrapped in a blanket and carried out by the second brother Li.

In fact, in the morning, Li Sanniang burned the paper with a brazier in the house in advance, and it was for Li Sanniang, the original body, and she took Luzhuer to kowtow to the brazier.

What Li Sanniang thought in her heart was that since she took over your body, you will naturally take over the responsibility. Lu Zhuer must raise her up well, and she will be filial to Li's father and mother.

Don't worry, you will do what you say.

Li Sanniang also thoughtfully gave a brazier to Shen Qiuniang next door, and told her that if any relatives need to worship, they should do so.

Fortunately, I made an appointment for the handlebar ceremony in advance, and I was still in time to go to Xuandu Temple early. It is estimated that at least half of the people in Chang'an City will go to Xuandu Temple today, and the road traffic is extremely congested.

After more than an hour, I arrived at the gate of Xuandu Temple, there was a constant flow of cars and horses at the gate, there were quite a lot of believers in Chang'an City, of course, there were also many people in Xingshan Temple opposite.

I received the incense from the little Taoist boy at the door, gave the sesame oil money, and bowed, this time I don’t need to ask the Taoist priest for a name, and I don’t need to ask the temple master alone to explain my doubts. I made money without spending too much money.

In Xuandu Temple, he participated in an altar sacrifice ceremony with everyone.

For Li Sanniang, this was really a novel experience. The ceremony was so serious that it could be called spectacular, and the fully dressed temple masters and Taoist priests could really be called "masters of the Tao".

Li's mother was still very pious, and paid another five liang of money for sesame oil, and got the vegetarian fruit given by Guanli.

Second Wife Li also went to ask for a safety talisman for Xiao Wulang to wear.

After such a delay, it was already past noon when we headed home.

When we got home, it was almost evening.

When I got home, I drank a bowl of porridge with capers to fill my hungry stomach.

Li Sanniang was very curious about what happened to Father Li's previous generation, so she asked Lu Zhuer, who was playing with Xiao Huang'er in the yard, to ask Shen Qiuniang, who was also in the yard, to look after her for a while, and went directly to Brother Li's room.

"Second brother, are you free? My little sister is confused."

"What's the matter? Sanniang remembers that she has a second brother?"

Li Erxiong was listening to Li Erxiong teasing Li Sanniang, holding Xiao Wulang with one hand, and punching Li Erxiong with one fist, Li Erxiong also cooperated, and then pretended to be in pain: "Ah, it hurts, three Mother, your second sister-in-law is avenging you."

"Haha, second brother, stop making trouble, little sister is really serious. Second brother, do you know why Aye is quiet and sad every year today? What happened in the previous generation? What kind of impression do I have? nothing?"

The second brother Li frowned when he heard this question, and became serious, "Sanniang, I don't know the details. This matter is the grievance of the previous generation. Aye doesn't want to say that there is naturally Aye's reason. Wait When Aye wants to say something, we will naturally know."

"The second brother knows, tell me."

"Okay, let's go back to the house and rest, I won't be tired after visiting Xuandu."

Brother Li obviously didn't want to say anything, but Li Sanniang withdrew, feeling that he had missed a big news.

The supper was plain noodles served by Mrs. Li, and after eating, Father Li took it to burn clothes for the ancestors in the yard first, but Lu Zhuer and Xiao Wulang were not allowed to go, and Mrs. Li took care of them in the house.

Old people always say that children with clean eyes may be seduced by wandering spirits, so children are not allowed to come out.

Then go to the entrance of the medical hall to burn paper clothes for the wandering souls passing by.

It was completely dark, and now not only the Li family was burning clothes at the door on this street, Li Sanniang, who was kneeling behind Li Erxiong, looked at this scene, but she didn't think it was scary.

It is said that Li Sanniang, who experienced the miraculous thing of crossing, should be the most devout believer, but Li Sanniang is still a firm materialist.

How should I put it, the self-contradiction of the traverser?

After burning the paper clothes, Li's mother said that although her family is a believer, the Buddha can't be neglected, so she also has to go to release the river lanterns.

The closest to Li's house is Anqu. Every year during the Hungry Ghost Festival, it is open to the common people, and the common people are allowed to light up lanterns on this night.

Father Li said that he was tired and didn't want to go. In the end, Father Li went back to the house, and Mrs. Li took Xiao Wulang and Luzhuer home. At this time, Shen Qiuniang also said that she would not go and stayed at home.

Among the four little ones, except for Li Dalang, the third little one is not allowed to go.

In the upper reaches of Anqu, there are merchants selling lamps, which are not expensive, and each lamp costs five copper coins. They can write and inscribe.

Li Sanniang bought one, wrote "May my son Wang Wanlu have a safe and smooth life", lit it with a fire pocket, and put it in the canal on the bank.

Li Sanniang looked at the scene of hundreds of lights in the ditch, and felt that the scene was really beautiful. Once again, she regretted that she didn't have a mobile phone, so she could take pictures and enjoy them later.

It was almost curfew waiting for the group of people to return home in the moonlight, and Li Sanniang felt something was wrong as soon as they arrived at the entrance of the medical hall.

This kind of something wrong can be said to be a sixth sense. Li Sanniang also told Aunt Li that it felt weird, and she couldn't tell her what kind of weird way it was.

Mrs. Li said that she was too tired, so she should go back to wash and rest.

Li Sanniang shook her head, put this strange feeling aside, went to pick up Luzhuer who was already asleep from Shen Qiuniang next door, and went to the kitchen to fetch water to wash up and go to bed.

But as a doctor, the nose can be insensitive to other smells, but the smell of blood is really hard to ignore.

Li Sanniang smelled a faint smell of blood in the kitchen, it was fresh blood.

　I'm sorry it's late today, I worked overtime and it got late.

　　It's super hot today, and I'm sweating while sitting. The company is promoting energy conservation and emission reduction, so I can't bear to turn on the air conditioner, it's too hot.

　　I wish you all a wonderful weekend~
