Chapter 23 Nothing to eat?
"But..." Looking at her ugly face, Zhao Yunling felt extremely painful.

The old man's thin hand suddenly grabbed his, and said in a low voice, "Ling'er, don't be sad, everyone has this day, you have to learn to comfort yourself."

"Mommy." Zhao Yunling called with a sour nose.

The old man curled up his mouth and slowly spoke to him, "Ling'er, if Mammy goes away, you will be left alone, Mammy can't bear you, can't bear you."

"During this period of illness, Mammy has been thinking about your future and how you will go on."

"After thinking about it for a long time, Mammy has no idea. You know, Mammy hopes that you can live a mediocre life all your life, and also hopes that you can make some achievements."

"Mommy..."

"I think too much, don't I?" Looking at him, the old man laughed, "Your fate is up to you, and what kind of life you want to live in the future is also up to you. No matter how much I think about it, I can only think about it." Think, after finding out about this, I don’t want to.”

"Although I don't want to, I'm still worried about your future. Do you think I'm very stupid?"

"No..." Zhao Yunling replied slowly.

The old man blinked, and continued to mutter, "Mammy wanted to live until you were 18 years old, and watched you get married, but I didn't expect that the sky will not follow people's wishes, and I will never see your daughter-in-law."

……

Similar words, in the next hour, the old man said countless words.

The further back, her voice became lower and lower until the end, she could hardly hear clearly, she was still saying, "Ling'er, it's your mother's idea to bring you out, whether you want to go back is up to you, if you don't go back, you Just stay away from there, if you want to go back, remember, don’t trust anyone in the future.”

"I know." Zhao Yunling replied.

After waiting quietly for a long time, he couldn't hear the old man's words anymore, so he couldn't help being startled, and stretched out his hand under her nose. After detecting the faint breath, he breathed a sigh of relief.

With the rest of the money, Long Yuejiao went to the street to buy the meat she had coveted for a long time, but after asking, she found out that the price of this pork was astonishingly expensive, at least, she felt that way based on her living standard.

The pure lean meat here costs 13 renminbi a catty, and the pork belly costs 20 renminbi a catty. Knowing that pork belly is more expensive than pure lean meat, Long Yuejiao shook her head. In modern times, the prices of pure lean meat and pork belly are exactly the opposite...

When Long Yuejiao was in a daze, the fat uncle who sold the butcher saw that she was silent, so he couldn't help asking, "Young master, do you want to buy it?"

Long Yuejiao hadn't decided what to buy yet, so she looked around at the meat stall, and then asked the price of pork ribs and the like. This question made her speechless again. The price of pork bones here is much lower than that of pure lean meat. Wen, the most expensive bones are ten cents a catty, and the cheapest ones, such as leg bones, cost only one penny a catty.

After pondering and pondering, Long Yuejiao bought half a catty of pure lean meat and two catties of leg bones in order not to spend too much money. Those who didn't counter-offer at the beginning said that they had already sold it cheaply.

In the end, Long Yuejiao couldn't be worn out, so he threw the pig intestines that had been left on the stall and nobody cared about them to the bones, and said in a rough voice, "It's not cheap, at worst I'll give you the intestines."

Looking at the bloody intestines, Long Yuejiao didn't want it very much, but thought it would be worthless, so she bought it anyway.

Carrying the pork leg bones and pig intestines, Long Yuejiao walked home excitedly. Halfway, she thought that there seemed to be no condiments for cooking at home except salt, so she turned around and put what she thought should be put in the dishes. I bought all the condiments, so I went back.

"Aunt Mei, I'm back." Before the person arrived, the voice came first.

Long Yuejiao was very happy when she arrived at the door, holding a bunch of things, hoping that Zhang Mei would welcome her.

However, Zhang Mei didn't come out immediately after hearing her voice, and there was no movement inside.

This made Long Yuejiao feel uneasy. It is impossible for Zhang Mei to ignore her. What happened?

With this thought, Long Yuejiao quickened her pace and walked inside.

Just stepped into the house, and saw a thin figure lying on the ground.

Long Yuejiao turned pale with shock, threw away the things in hand, rushed over and exclaimed, "Aunt Mei, what's wrong with you?"

While calling out, she also put her hand under Zhang Mei's nose.

For a moment, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then continued to call, "Aunt Mei, wake up, wake up!"

Zhang Mei didn't respond, and her body didn't respond at all.

Long Yue's delicate heart sank, and after a few seconds of panic, she hugged Zhang Mei vigorously and sent her to the bed in the room.

After putting her away, Long Yue hurried out of the house to find a doctor.

Coincidentally, the doctor Long Yuejiao was looking for was exactly the doctor Zhang Mei had looked for several times and owed sixty copper coins. He knew Long Yuejiao, and the doctor was puzzled when he saw Long Yuejiao came to find him. , "Why are you here?" Wasn't it always that woman before?
When Long Yuejiao heard what he said, she knew that he knew her, and hurriedly said, "Can you come with me, someone in my family is sick."

"En." The doctor didn't ask much, took the medicine box, gave instructions to the little boy in the shop, and followed Long Yuejiao away.

When he saw Zhang Mei lying in the room, the doctor's eyes darkened, and he walked over to help her feel the pulse with a blank expression.

After a long silence, the doctor put down his hands and looked at Long Yuejiao coldly.

"What's wrong with her?" Seeing his gaze, Long Yuejiao immediately asked.

"You still know how to care about her?" The doctor said in a deep voice.

Long Yue is so dazzled, why doesn't she know how to care about her?

"What do you mean by that? Just say what you have to say!"

The doctor snorted softly and asked, "Do you know why she is like this?"

It's a waste of time, do you still need me?Long Yuejiao expressed this sentence with her eyes.

"Because she didn't eat for a long time and only drank water, her body, which had no nutrition to maintain, was crushed."

After a moment of silence, Long Yue said softly, "Please put it simply, what happened to her? How can I save her?"

"She is so hungry. If a normal person is hungry for a period of time, nothing will happen. But she hasn't eaten anything good for a long time. Being so hungry will hurt her body. It doesn't need to cost a lot to save her, but it will take time. , her body needs to be recuperated slowly, eat something nutritious, and she should be fine after a while."

His words made Long Yuejiao think of the scene in the morning, and suddenly felt that Zhang Mei had done that many times. Every time she just watched her eat, she asked her, and said that she ate it. In fact, she didn't eat it at all. I want to give her something to eat!
Such thoughtfulness made Long Yuejiao's nose sore, she asked with a choked voice, "Then when will she wake up?"

"Go and make a bowl of porridge." The doctor didn't say anything, but just ordered.

Long Yuejiao didn't ask any further questions, and left obediently. However, when she got to the kitchen, she couldn't find anything that could be used to cook porridge...
