my ghost husband

Chapter 111

Just when the sun was about to set.We are also preparing to wrap up our second day of searching.There are many natural villages near here, and we can only walk three or four villages a day.Sometimes, the road is not familiar, and there is no such small road sign in the navigation, which made us waste a lot of time.

In the villages we visited, many people knew that we were looking for a 13-year-old boy, and just a few days ago, an old man also came.

Now Lao Bei may be like us, looking for the child in the nearby village, or he may have found the child and returned to the urban area.We only hope that we can find this child sooner.

Just as we were about to get in the car and leave, a man ran out of the village, that man was dressed as a farmer.Wearing a cheap camouflage uniform, trousers rolled up to the thigh, and a straw hat with a ripped edge on his head, he ran and shouted: "Hey, over there, take the man over there, wait a minute .”

Zong Sheng stood by the car door, turned around and looked at the man running over.The man approached, gasped and said, "Are you here to find a 13-year-old boy, born on August [-]th?"

"Yes, brother, do you know?"

"I don't know either, even a crippled old man came to look for him the day before yesterday."

"That's my grandpa. He hurt his leg. Do you know where my grandpa went?"

"He couldn't find anyone, so he left in a hurry. He helped me see the symptoms of my dad's hand numbness at our home, and he really recovered after a while. Your grandfather, he is really amazing."

Zong Sheng didn't show any expression, nodded and got ready to get in the car.The man stopped him: "Brother, since it's your grandfather, you can order it too, and help me see my daughter-in-law. My daughter-in-law was fine yesterday, but today she said she was going to work, so she couldn't get up on the bed." Yes. I keep saying that the calf hurts. I thought it was due to the pressure when I was sleeping, and the blood vessels were not flowing smoothly. It will be fine if I move around and rest for a day. But when I came back from the field tonight, her leg was not healed, but a little swollen feeling up."

Zong Sheng still had a cold face: "Send it to the hospital. I see that many families in the village have private cars. Our car has to go to other villages."

Seeing that Zong Sheng was about to get into the car, the man became anxious, turned around and stood in front of the car door, and said, "No, you didn't understand me. I mean, please go to my house to see my wife. She, she It doesn't look like it's hurt, it's still sick. She said that she had a dream last night, that the top tubes placed in the southwest of our house rolled down and hit her legs. But I went to see that the top tubes are all good Hey, she didn't roll off. She, she was in trouble. Since you are the grandson of the old master, you should also order it. Please. I really don't know who to go to. I have to It's dark, and what I need is to find a car to take to the hospital, and they may not be willing to help, I have to wait until tomorrow morning. My daughter-in-law, this pain will last until tomorrow."

Zong Sheng looked at me, but I didn't express my opinion.We were going back to Jinming City, if you help, it won't delay us.

Zong Sheng hesitated for a moment before saying: "Go and see first, I'm not sure if I can help you. Let's see."

"That's, that's, you guys, come with me, go to my house, I, I'll let my brother cook for you right away, and I'll have dinner at my house tonight."

Walking along the small road in the village, when we arrived at their house, it was almost dark.On the way, I was still thinking about what a top tube is, and I followed behind the man and asked Zong Sheng in a low voice.Zong Sheng also answered me in a low voice: "It is the big wood used to support the formwork when building a house."

Before going to the man's house, on the left side of their house, I really saw a pile of wood piled up like a hill, arranged in a triangle, and on the wood, there were three or four-year-old children sitting on it, holding The big bowl bites the chicken legs.It feels very stable and doesn't look like it's rolling down.

We walked into the house, and there was an old lady in the house, with a sullen face, sitting at the door, sighing.The man said it was his grandma, who was 96.

Seeing Zong Cheng and I walking in, the old man's eyes fell on Zong Sheng's body. The eyes with drooping eyelids tried hard to see Zong Sheng clearly, then he was so shocked that he quickly looked away, and his expression became flustered.

Zong Sheng leaned into my ear and said, "This old lady should leave within a hundred days."

I was surprised, but since I had already walked into someone's house, I couldn't ask any more questions.The man led us into the back room and told the older children to go and send the uncle to their house to cook and stir-fry immediately, saying that a husband came to see things at home.

Walking into the house, I felt the poverty of this family. I felt that our family was poor enough. This family was even poorer than ours.The only TV in the house is still a small color TV, but the picture displayed is close to black and white.At home, there are only these four rooms, and one is a utility room.We went into the room the man took us to, and there were two beds in it, and a couple of big sacks of grain.

It can be seen that the hostess of this family is still very diligent. Although the family is very poor, the clothes and quilts on the bed are all neatly stacked.The grounds are also very clean.The woman was lying on one of the big beds, with a blanket covering her legs, frowning, sitting on the bed.

When she saw us coming in, the woman said, "I told you that you don't need to go to the hospital, bear with it, I guess the pain will be gone tomorrow."

The man explained to the woman, and Zong Sheng stood in front of the window, looking at the top tubes facing the window.After the man explained the matter, he said, "Tell me about your dream."

The woman told the dream again.Zong Sheng still stood in front of the window and asked some details.For example, where the woman stands when the log rolls down.The order in which the wood tumbles.Those who were present at the time, whether there were abnormalities nearby, etc.After asking these questions, Zong Sheng stood by the bed and asked the man to pull up the woman's pants to look at the woman's legs.

The woman's leg was obviously swollen, and Zong Sheng asked, "Do you feel it when you touch it?"

"Numb, swollen, swollen to pain."

I don't know what Zong Sheng was thinking, but he actually said to the woman, "Have you peed since you woke up?"

The woman's face was a little embarrassed. After all, she was just a young woman in her 30s. Zong Sheng was at this age and she was not a doctor. If you ask me this, can I not be embarrassed?

Her man said anxiously from the side: "You said yes, there is nothing wrong with whether you have urinated or not."

"No, it's just me and grandma at home. My leg hurts so much that I can't even stand up, and I don't know how to pee when I want to." The woman cried out of grievance.

Zong Shengcai said: "Let your man take care of you to urinate, use a small bucket to catch it, then find a urine scoop, and walk from this window to the top tube, take a step, pour a scoop, three scoops will pour the urine Finish pouring. If you don’t have enough urine, flush some water, but not too much. Three scoops must be poured. The last scoop is directly poured on the top of those top tubes. This leg will be rubbed well tonight, and some swelling and pain-relieving tincture will be used. It is enough to promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis. Tomorrow will be better."

After hearing this, the man hurried to find the bucket and scoop.After leaving the house, he yelled at the children who were eating on the log: "Eat, eat, go away."

The man's younger brother also came over and cooked for us with pork bought in the village.The grandma kept avoiding us. When Zong Sheng went to check the top tubes, I was standing beside her. The old lady pulled my pants and asked me to squat down and talk to her.

She was speaking in a dialect, with a toothless mouth and trembling words, and I couldn't understand her, so I could only smile stupidly: "Grandma, I don't understand."

The uncle in the kitchen stuck out his head with a kitchen knife in his hand, and yelled at grandma.I understand that sentence, what he said was "Grandma, don't talk nonsense!"

I don't know what the old grandma said, so I can only laugh along with it.

A few minutes later, the man came out with a small bucket, and he looked nervous.Leaning on the window of the room, it took a few seconds before I started to take the first step, and then poured urine, took the second step, and poured urine again, and the third step was right in front of those top tubes, and turned the keg upside down , poured all the urine in the gourd, and then poured it on the top tubes.

When the pouring came over, Zong Sheng shouted: "Stand back immediately!"

"Ah?" The man was stunned for a moment, but still took a few quick steps.At the same time, looking at the stable pile of wood, a piece of wood rolled down.Fortunately, he retreated quickly and no one was hurt.

The man was still in shock and threw the small bucket and urine ladle in his hand on those top tubes, panting and asked Zong Sheng: "Brother, can I ask someone to take these things away? Look panicked."

"When the sun is shining at noon tomorrow, find someone to load the car. Whose are these jacks?"

"My brother's. He's building a house for the farmer's house now."

"Tell him, don't use these top tubes anymore, throw them in the wilderness, don't even look at them. Don't feel sorry for the money, if you use it again, something will happen."

After half an hour, it was finally time to eat.The woman was able to stand up and walked to the living room to say thank you to Zong Sheng.She said that her feet were not so swollen, and she felt better.

When eating, even if the woman's legs are inconvenient, she still insists on letting grandma eat at the table and taking care of her to eat.

It's just that grandma kept leaning sideways and didn't look Zong Sheng directly.After eating, we left the family, and when the man sent us to the car again, he stuffed Zong Sheng with a red envelope and said to him: "Brother, don't take what my grandma said seriously. She's getting old."

Zong Sheng didn't refuse, put away the red envelope and got into the car, then lowered the car window and said, "The old man is almost done, let her choose her own coffin, get ready."

Perhaps in everyone's opinion, it is simply impossible for the elderly to choose their own coffins.But in rural areas, it is good for the elderly to be able to choose their own coffins.The elders can ask for anything, and let the younger generation try their best to do it.Some families have elderly people with high collars. Even if the elderly are in good health, their grandchildren will prepare a coffin for the elderly and put it at home for the elderly to watch. If it is inappropriate, just mention it.
