Medicine Girl Jingjing

Chapter 78
Li Yunxiao was so frightened that she turned her head and hugged Li Laoshi's thigh.Li Qubing hid behind Li Yunqing.

Mrs. He got the order of the nobleman to go up to look at the little boy, then went back to the main room and described it in a low voice, and couldn't help but said: "Even adults can't bear such abuse, let alone a delicate child who is only three feet tall."

In the courtyard, Qu Langzhong couldn't help raising his voice an octave, and said angrily: "I have been practicing medicine for many years, and I have never seen such a vicious woman who abused the only son left by her deceased wife like this. It is not enough to beat and scold her and not give him food. A few days ago, he was made to go down to fish in the rice field naked, so that his water-soaked skin was covered with blood-sucking leeches and poisoned by dampness."

Leeches, also known as leeches, are gray-brown ring-shaped animals that live by sucking the blood of humans and animals.Leeches can easily lead to human infection after stinging and sucking human blood.

Hunan Province is a land of fish and rice, and the rice fields are full of leeches.Adults and children must not go to the rice fields if they have blood wounds on their bodies.

Xiaotong's stepmother beat him with bruises all over his body except his face, and deliberately sent him to fish in the rice fields, apparently to let the leeches suck up his blood.

Xiaotong's stepmother's thoughts were so vicious that everyone in the Li family was angry when they heard this.

The nobleman heard it clearly in the main room, his complexion changed slightly, and he sent Mrs. He to the yard to have a look.

Li Yunxiao cursed angrily: "You bad stepmother, kill her!"

Li Yunxiao knew the word "stepmother" from Li Jingjing.

Once, when he was too mischievous and made Mrs. He angry, Li Jingjing whispered that if he made Mrs. He so angry that he broke up with Li Laoshi, and Li Laoshi married his stepmother, he would be the first to beat him to death.

He said, "If you have a stepmother, you have a stepfather. Hua Yazi's stepmother is vicious, so Hua Yazi's father is not at fault?"

Li Jingjing reached out to touch the boy's forehead, it was astonishingly hot. Seeing his face was pale and his lips were red and purple, she was really worried that if he survived, his brain would be burnt out and he would become a fool. Why don't you invite the doctor in time?"

Qu Lang said angrily: "His stepmother stopped his father from inviting the doctor, and the neighbor next door happens to be from our clan, so I really can't bear to look down on him, so I came back quietly today to bring a message to Sixth Uncle."

He didn't say that it was a woman from the Qu tribe who married into Xiaoju Village who brought the message, but it was also to protect this person.

Xiao Tong's father suddenly knelt down and cried, "It's not that I don't want to save Hua Yazi. My cousin threatened me with the fetus in her womb. If I go to hire a doctor, she will jump into the river to die."

Xiao Tong's grandfather scolded: "Stupid thing, you have to let her try jumping into the river, she won't want to die!"

At the beginning, he just saw that Xiao Tong's father was honest, honest and stupid, and would never have second thoughts about his daughter, so he married his daughter. Who knew that the advantage of Xiao Tong's father's remarriage became a disadvantage after his daughter died.

"Grandpa Six's family went to Xiaoju Village to take Hua Yazi out, and sent him directly to the town for me to see a doctor. When I checked Hua Yazi's pulse, he had only one breath left, and he couldn't survive this one. Pharmacist Li, I only have Bring him to you, and see if you have any medicine that can save his life." Qu Langzhong paused, looked around Hua Yazi's family, and finally his eyes fell on the old patriarch and Qu Shun.

The old patriarch nodded slightly towards Qu Shun.

Qu Shun has already resigned from the Taiqing Temple and returned to the clan to take over the position of clan leader.

He took three steps forward and bowed deeply, begging: "Li Yaoshi, as long as you help me out, even if you can't save Hua Yazi, you are the benefactor of our Qu clan."

Li Jingjing nodded, frowning, and began to feel the child's pulse. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw the child's father who was squatting on the ground holding his head and crying silently. .

She let out a long sigh, and said to herself in a moderate voice: "Save the little brother, he has to go back to be abused."

Grandpa Xiaotong wiped away his tears and said, "No, Hua Yazi won't go back to Xiaoju Village. I must keep him this time, even if I sell the coffin and shroud."

Xiaotong's three uncles heard what his father said, and it would be unfilial if they didn't express their views. They all expressed their willingness to raise Xiaotong.

He Shi whispered a few words in Qu Shi's ear.

Qu stared at Little Tong's father in disgust, and said loudly, "Sixth Uncle, if you want to raise Hua Yazi, change his surname from Tian to Qu, and cut ties with his biological father and stepmother from then on!"

Qu Langzhong said angrily, "Aunt Zhu is right."

Tian Hua's father stood there dumbstruck.

Most of the villagers in Xiaoju Village have the surname Tian, ​​and the Tian clan has never had a son change his surname.The little boy's surname is Tian Hua, if he changes his surname to Qu, he will be called Qu Hua.

Qu Shun said solemnly: "Sixth Uncle, I will go to Xiaoju Village to discuss this matter with Elder Tian. If I disagree, I will sue Hua Yazi's father and stepmother."

There is no law in the Ding Dynasty that says that parents cannot buy and sell children, but wars have been going on all year round. In order to increase the population, the founding queen advised the founding emperor. This year, there is a new law: those who harm underage children will be severely punished.

Tian Hua's stepmother wanted to sell Tian Hua at the beginning, but after being discovered by Tian Hua's grandfather, she wanted to take back Tian Hua's custody rights. Tian Hua's father was already 30 years old and had only one son, so of course he refused.

Tian Hua's stepmother didn't understand the law, and thought that if Tian Hua was tortured to death, no one could do anything to her.

Hearing this, Li Jingjing ran to the pharmacy and pretended to get medicine. She took Baoming Pills, Qushao Medicine Powder, Internal Use Qudu Pills, Pain Relief and Huoxue Ointment from Huichun Medicine Mansion, and then returned to the small courtyard to give Tian Hua some medicine. He took the Baoming Pill, then washed it with warm water and burned the powder for him to drink.

"You guard the little brother." Li Jingjing handed a small jar of pain-relieving and blood-activating ointment to Qu Langzhong, went to the kitchen to clean her hands, and then took the Li family back to the main room to continue eating.

Mrs. He told the nobleman in detail what she witnessed with her own eyes.

He Shi entered the main room, smiled at the nobleman immersed in astonishment, and said, "Sister, ask Jing Niang to take your pulse this afternoon."

Li Jingjing raised her head and asked, "Auntie will only believe me and let me feel the pulse after waiting for my little brother to come back to life. Isn't that right, Auntie?"

The nobleman's thoughts were far away, and he did not hear the words of He's mother and daughter.

Xiao Qing who was standing behind the nobleman couldn't help but said, "Second Madam?"

The nobleman came to his senses, and He Shi repeated the words again.

The nobleman stretched out his wrist, and said slowly: "How can I not trust Jing Niang, it's just that my disease is accumulated over the years, and I have taken countless medicines, and my body has no response to the medicine."

Last night, the He family knew that it would be difficult for the nobleman to have any more children, and he didn't want outsiders to know the nobleman's privacy, so he said, "Sister, wait until Niang Jing wakes up in the afternoon."

Li Jingjing understood He's intentions, and said, "Auntie, I haven't eaten enough yet, I can't sleep if I'm hungry. I'll take your pulse this afternoon."

The nobleman smiled slightly, and withdrew his hand.

Qu Langzhong kept Tian Hua in his arms, and checked his pulse from time to time. After half an hour, his fever subsided to save his life. Then he took the pain-relieving and activating blood ointment and smeared it on his wounds all over his body. Using the detoxification pills, he reported to his grandfather's family that he was safe.
