Traditional Chinese Medicine: Back to the years when educated youths went to the countryside

Chapter 359 Desire is cute but fails

Who is dating you?You really don’t regard yourself as an outsider!
Mrs. Guo Chen tilted her eyes at him, her eyelids drooped, and she said expressionlessly: "I'm not sick."

Seeing her telling lies with her eyes open, Guo Mingyue almost laughed angrily.Do you think you are not sick and are lying on the bed?Who was so happy yesterday that you invited the health worker here and asked me to go to the commune to get you some medicine?You are quite a grown man, how could you say such childish words?
Wang Chengzhou couldn't even laugh or cry.But seeing that his little apprentice was showing signs of breaking out, he still took the initiative and said:

"Auntie, generally speaking, it is not a serious illness to have cold or fever, but your situation is a bit special."

"It is said in medical books that... if symptoms like yours are not treated, they will accumulate into tuberculosis over time, and most of them cannot be cured by medicine."

"You are so young and not married yet. If your body collapses for no reason, your life will be even more difficult in the future."

Tuberculosis?

Guo Mingyue didn't pay much attention at first, but when she heard these words, her beautiful eyes couldn't help but widen, and she suddenly became nervous.

It turns out to be so serious!

No wonder Master didn't tell me just now. Was he afraid that I would be frightened if I found out?

He really, I cried to death...

Not to mention her random thoughts, Mrs. Guo Chen knew Wang Chengzhou's medical skills. The reason why she didn't want her daughter to have more contact with him was because she disliked his ability to treat illnesses and save people and earn little money. If she followed him, she would definitely not be able to enjoy wealth, but I never dare to look down on him in this regard.

Seeing the seriousness of his words, the middle-aged widow suddenly became anxious, struggled to get up and said:
"You bastard, stop talking nonsense!"

"I was agitated by the cold water when I was digging in the river. I had a headache and brain fever, which was similar to a cold. How could it develop into tuberculosis?"

"Stop scaring me!"

Seeing that she said she didn't believe it, but her body was very honest, Wang Chengzhou held back his laughter and said seriously:
"Auntie, who told you that you have a cold syndrome?"

"Yesterday, Mingyue gave you the prescription for headache and brain fever, but what was the result? Didn't the symptoms become more serious today?"

"I said, Mingyue is my apprentice, and you are her mother. I will not lie to anyone if I lie to you. It is best to let me check it for you, so as not to leave the root of the disease in the future."

Guo Mingyue was really nervous, and quickly helped, "Mom, what my master said is true. Why do you always break your promise and don't believe what the doctor says?"

"Bah, you said your grandma is a bitch!"

Mrs. Guo Chen almost laughed angrily, glaring at her daughter who started to express her words again and cursed.

Wang Chengzhou couldn't help but laugh as well. He held his forehead and said helplessly: "Mingyue, that's called hiding diseases and not treating them. Read more books when you have time, so as not to embarrass the master later."

"Oh……"

Guo Mingyue pinched her fingers, feeling embarrassed.

But I noticed that my mother's expression had softened a lot, and she was also a little unable to hold back and wanted to laugh.

"get out."

Unexpectedly, Wang Chengzhou suddenly turned around, glanced at her, suppressed his smile, and said something.

"what?"

Guo Mingyue looked confused and didn't understand why her own mother needed to avoid seeing a doctor.But looking at the master's stern face, he still pouted and walked out.

Mrs. Guo Chen was nervous for a while, leaning on the bedside, looking at him without saying anything.

"Auntie, let me take your pulse first."

Wang Chengzhou smiled, motioned for her to stretch out her hands, and then asked, "Have you always felt unhappy recently?"

Mrs. Guo Chen stopped being pretentious and let him hold her wrist. But when she heard his words, she still turned her head away, looked out the window and sighed, "What's going on or not? How can we, orphans and widowed mothers, live like this?" Have a good day?"

"Ever since her father passed away, I raised her up by myself. The hardships she has experienced in the past ten years are almost as bad as Tang Monk's Buddhist scriptures. Isn't there a day and night where I am not worried?"

"Seeing that she is about to grow up, I started to worry about her marriage again. We have suffered too much, and we must live more comfortably in the rest of our lives. My future uncle, let's not talk about climbing high branches. If you have to marry a high-ranking official or something, you must be rich and powerful, so you don’t have to worry about food and clothing. Can you understand?"

After saying that, Mrs. Guo Chen stared at him directly, indicating something.

These words are basically bottoming out, and the warning is obvious.That's you, a little village health worker. Your family is very poor, but you are not allowed to have ideas about our daughter. You are not worthy of her!

Wang Chengzhou smiled indifferently and did not respond to her. Instead, he let go of her wrist and began to draw conclusions about her condition, "Auntie, there is no cold evil pulse in the three parts of your Cun Guan Chi, but the Jueyin string in the Guan part of your left hand is long. Straight up to the fish's edge, it is a sign of Yin Sheng."

"The pulse is only yin but not yang. According to your situation, it should be that the fire is internally depressed and the yang energy is cohesive and not dispersed. That's why the symptoms of hot and cold appear."

"The reason...I won't go into details. In short, everyone has the right to pursue their own happiness. As you said, the moon is getting bigger, and you, the mother-in-law, have fulfilled your obligations, and it's time Think about your own life."

Although Mrs. Guo Chen was a peasant woman, she was not a fool. When she heard this, her face turned red, her face felt hot, and she said angrily:

"You bastard, what are you talking about?"

"I knew from the beginning that you were not a serious person. You had bad intentions in taking Mingyue as your apprentice! Didn't you see that she was good-looking and you had dirty thoughts, so you accepted her half-heartedly? Now you finally put your The tail of the sexy fox is exposed!"

"Although I am a widow, I have been alone with my daughter for ten years, and I have never had my backbone stabbed by young and old men. I plan to live with my son and her future son-in-law for the rest of my life. You haven't even grown your hair. Why are you chewing the back of your tongue like a dog? If you didn't have the strength, I would have to beat you with my big ears! I'm almost as old as your mother, and I'm really ashamed for her when you say something like this!"

This middle-aged widow was probably stabbed in a sore spot, and her defense suddenly broke. She became extremely angry as if to prove her innocence.

"If you desire a man but don't get it, then your internal fire will be depressed. If the depression lasts for a long time, your qi and blood will be depleted, yin and yang will compete, and you will generate cold and heat."

Wang Chengzhou frowned. If it weren't for Guo Mingyue's sake, he really wouldn't want to meddle in such nosy matters.However, the disease of mismatch is also a heart disease. If it is not cured, just with the power of medicine and stone, over time, it may actually become tuberculosis.

Moreover, Mrs. Guo Chen always makes things difficult for Guo Mingyue and regards her as a bargaining chip for her wealth. Doesn't she know that everyone has emotions, likes and dislikes, likes and dislikes, and forcing her to marry someone she doesn't want to marry, isn't it just like her, who is doing nothing but destruction? Desirable things?
Dang Ji said with a cold face:

"Zhu Danxi, a famous scholar of the Yuan Dynasty, once said in "Ge Zhi Yu Lun: Preface to the Proverbs about Food and Lust": If you think about it, the desires of men and women are of great concern, and the desire for food and drink is especially acute in the body. The world is ruined by indulging in it. There are many of them."

"Doctors thousands of years ago have realized the impact of sexual desire between men and women on diseases. I, Wang Chengzhou, have taken your pulse, how could you not know that?"

"Your liver pulse is long and stringy, straight out of the mouth. This is obviously due to liver failure, gallbladder imbalance, cardinal malfunction, and yang energy gathering together, congested and not dispersed, resulting in insufficient phase fire, which is why there is a condition of only yin and no yang." Pulse." "The reason for this kind of situation is generally caused by emotion, either because you don't get what you want, or because you are angry, or because you are hurt by sadness. However, combined with your menstrual status and the fact that you are widowed In this state, is it wrong for me to say, 'The desire is cute but the desire is not fulfilled'?"

"You can deceive other people with your words, but you can't deceive doctors of traditional Chinese medicine."

Wang Chengzhou didn't give her any face, and directly analyzed her cleanly. She was so embarrassed that Guo Chen was angry and frightened, and said in a trembling voice: "Get out of here!"

Just go out, as much as anyone likes to stay here.

Whoa!

After leaving the room, she suddenly heard the sound of shattering tiles. Guo Mingyue slipped under the window sill with a panicked look on her face. She glanced at her master and patted the non-existent dust on her body, feeling completely embarrassed.

This girl was obviously eavesdropping outside just now!

Wang Chengzhou was also speechless.

If it were any woman, hearing that her mother misses a man would probably make her scalp tingle, and she wouldn’t know how to show herself to others, and she wouldn’t have thought that the same would be true for this pretty girl...

"cough."

Wang Chengzhou cleared his throat and pretended not to care:

"Go get pen and paper."

"Treating a disease like your mother's as headache and brain fever will obviously not be effective. Prescribing medicine should focus on suppressing yin, and then slightly change the Dabuihu decoction to deal with the alternating cold and heat."

"The prescription is two liang of raw rehmannia root, one liang of red peony root, five qian each of Bupleurum, Radix Genchi, and Scutellaria baicalensis. Make them into fine powder and make them into honey pills the size of Wutong seeds. Take thirty pills at a time, three times a day. After a period of time, It will be cured.”

"For this... disease, use pills to select the slow and specific properties of the medicine, and then use black plum decoction as a medicine to induce the menstrual flow into the liver with its sour taste."

"Oh."

Something new to learn!Guo Mingyue's eyes lit up, but then she became much more depressed. She lowered her head and responded, feeling mixed in her heart. She didn't know whether to cry or laugh.Anyway, I quietly took a pen and paper and wrote it down word by word.

Staying here, Wang Chengzhou felt equally uncomfortable. Seeing that her writing was correct, he planned to leave.

Guo Mingyue quickly came out to see her off.

Seeing her hanging her head, Wang Chengzhou sighed and said:
"Mingyue, do you remember what I taught you about the seven emotions of internal injury? Everyone has seven emotions and six desires, no one is an exception."

"Your mother has been widowed for you for many years. She is also a normal woman. You can't perfect her just because she is your mother and make her a statue of a saint with no desires or desires. After all, she is only in her early forties. Life is only halfway through, and I also want to live like a normal woman."

"Don't despise her for this, and don't embarrass her. It's best if you just pretend you don't know."

Wang Chengzhou warned him again and again before turning and leaving.

Guo Mingyue looked at his back, her face bulging, she suddenly covered her cheeks, her shoulders twitched, not sure whether she was crying or laughing.Anyway, when the palm is put down, it is as pretty as a spring peach, so shy that water can almost flow out of it.

For the first time, I thought why Master was so stupid!
That was her mother, a mature girl. How could she despise her for this?The reason why I felt embarrassed was because I was afraid that he would look down on his mother and daughter.

Since he was so nervous to explain himself, it shows that Wang Chengzhou is a very kind and open-minded person. Not only is he not ordinary young men who can't walk around when they see women, but he is broad-minded, considerate and warm, and can always understand the difficulties of others and treat them well. Even a widow can give enough respect.

How could such a person make her unhappy?
That's her master!
Guo Mingyue blinked her big watery eyes, the corners of her bright red mouth curled up, and she suddenly became inexplicably excited.So much so that he stood at the gate of the hospital and shouted at the top of his lungs, "Mom, Master just prescribed a medicine for you. I will go to the commune to catch you now."

"Really, don't do anything like digging rivers again in the future. In order to save a few money, you make yourself sick, but spend money to buy the pain!"

"Just wait, I'll be back in a moment to boil the medicine for you."

After finishing speaking, he pursed his lips and snickered, then walked away with brisk steps.

Mrs. Guo Chen in the room had her head covered and didn't know how to face her daughter. When she heard her words, she sat up suddenly. Wang Chengzhou's figure appeared in front of her eyes, and she couldn't help but feel grateful.

Thinking again about the restraint he had placed on Guo Mingyue in the past few years, tears fell from his red face.

Girls in the countryside get married early, usually around [-] or [-] years old.But my daughter is already nineteen, almost becoming an old girl.

Seeing girls younger than herself starting to have sex with each other, doesn't she, a young girl in her prime, have any ideas?

In a woman's life, her beautiful years only last a few years. In order to have a good support for the rest of her life, she is not allowed to fall in love freely, and she is not allowed to associate with men in private, even her master...

Is this really fair to her?
Guo Chen's heart has never been as chaotic as it is today.

'You have fulfilled your duties as a mother, it's time to think about yourself. '

This sentence really lingered in her mind like a curse, making her absent-minded for a long time.

Maybe it's time for me to leave this home to Mingyue and give her greater freedom.

Mrs. Guo Chen was leaning on the head of the bed, letting her body slide down on the bed.

Wang Chengzhou returned home in one breath, wondering what the hell is this!
Fortunately, Guo Mingyue has a fierce temper, otherwise, he would not know how to face her in the future.

I'm afraid if this happens, Mrs. Guo Chen will probably not let her run to her home.

If you don’t come, don’t come. It would be embarrassing...

After comforting the family and telling them that Mrs. Guo Chen actually had no serious illness and had been cured by herself, Li Yuzhu breathed a sigh of relief.However, seeing that he was about to go back to the house and lie down on the bed, the old comrade's eyes widened.

Wang Chengzhou had no choice but to squat down with his sister Wang Aiduo holding the book and pretending to start studying.

After spending a whole day at home, it was not until dusk that the village suddenly became lively.

Those older girls and younger wives were thinking about how much their Gouwa Flower Tea and Frost Mulberry Leaf Tea could be sold for, so they all ran to the entrance of the village to have a look at the sunset.

I wish I could see Zhang Quanfa covered in sunset and walking all the way down the mountain road.
