After Picking Up the Lucky Girl, the Whole Village Became Prosperous

Chapter 27 Healing

“Be careful.” Dani had no choice but to support her little cousin to prevent her from falling and knocking over the porridge jar.

After ladling out the porridge, Yingbao asked Sister Dani to get a bowl and put it on the mouth of the jar.

 Dani did not doubt that he was there and hurried to the cupboard to get a bowl.

Yingbao took the opportunity to pour half a bowl of Wudingzhi into the jar and stirred it with a bamboo spoon.

“Yingbao, come down quickly, don’t fall.”

Dani was almost afraid of her little cousin, so she ran over with a gust of wind, immediately covered the jar with a bowl, picked up the rope hanging on both ears of the jar, and said, "I'm going to my second uncle's house, do you want to come with me?"

 “Yes!” Yingbao nodded, she wanted to see her second uncle finish the porridge with her own eyes.

So Dani took her little cousin in one hand and carried the porridge jar in the other, and came to her second uncle's house.

"Second uncle, get up and eat porridge." Yingbao saw that his second uncle was sleeping with his eyes closed, so he stepped forward and called him.

Not long after Jiang Erlang finished drinking the medicine, he still didn't want to eat, so he shook his head: "Second uncle, I'm not hungry, so I don't want to eat for the time being."

Seeing that he refused to eat, Yingbao quickly persuaded him: "Second uncle, you will be better soon if you eat the porridge. Sister Dani cooked it with great difficulty. If you don't drink it, sister Dani will be sad."

  Dani: ...innocently shot.

At this moment, Jiang Erlang saw his two little nieces standing in front of the Kang. He smiled slightly and nodded: "Okay, Dani, please fill half the bowl for me."

In this way, Jiang Erlang managed to eat half a bowl of porridge, then lay down and fell asleep again.

 Seeing that the task was completed, Ying Bao felt relieved and took Yoyo out for a run and exercise.

Another day, Yingbao got up early and cracked a double-yolked egg in a bowl, stirred some Wudingzhi paste and pond water into it, steamed it in a pot, and then sent it to her second uncle to eat.

 From then on, a bowl of steamed eggs will be given every day.

 Flash by a few days.

Jiang Erlang's health is getting better and he can get off the kang and walk around, but his wife Leng still hasn't come back.

Jiang Sanlang saw that the medicine he caught last time was almost used up, so he decided to ask the doctor to come and give his second brother a look before the Chinese New Year and prescribe another medicine.

 The white-haired Langzhong felt a little unbelievable after checking Jiang Er's pulse.

 He asked Jiang Erlang to stretch out his other hand and feel for his pulse again.

Huh? Did he make a mistake in his diagnosis last time, and this patient did not have lung disease?

You must know that lung disease is a stubborn disease, and no one has been able to completely cure it so far. If you want to survive, you need to use rare medicinal materials such as ginseng and donkey hide gelatin to slowly nurse back to health to extend your life.

But judging from Jiang Er's pulse condition today, it is calm and gentle, neither too big nor too small. Although it is a little superficial, it is also a sign of initial recovery from a serious illness.

 In other words, Jiang Erlang's illness has been completely cured.

Li Lang was puzzled. He checked Jiang Erlang's tongue coating, raised his eyelids, listened to his chest and back with the receiver, and asked a few questions.

Jiang Erlang answered one by one, saying that he only felt a little weak and had no other discomfort. Now I don’t cough or wheeze, and my appetite is very good. I can eat two large bowls of porridge in one meal.

 Li Langzhong frowned and looked at him, convinced that the patient in front of him had fully recovered.

How can it be?

How could a lung disease that even Kyoto Imperial Hospital was unable to cure be cured after taking just one or two doses of medicine?

Li Langzhong was puzzled for a moment, so he picked up the prescription he prescribed and read it again and again.

 That’s right, the prescriptions for treating lung diseases are still very common.

 Because the Jiang family had limited money, they used the cheapest ginseng slices and donkey-hide gelatin, and the quantities were small.

“Sanlang, do you still have the medicine you took last time?” Li Langzhong was bound to find out the reason. After all, he would never dream of knowing how to keep a person with lung disease intact.

"There is one pack left." Jiang Sanlang didn't know why, so he took the last pack of medicine.

 Li Langzhong opened it and carefully identified the medicinal materials in the medicine bag.

 That's right, it's exactly the same as what's prescribed in the prescription.

Did this patient take other folk remedies? Langzhong Li stroked his beard and continued to ask: "Can you tell me what kind of food and supplements Erlang has taken recently?"

 He was already sure that Jiang Erlang must have used some effective folk medicine.

The last time I examined him, I saw that he had shortness of breath, hot flashes, night sweats, weight loss, fatigue, and weak pulse. He had anorexia and coughed up blood, and had rales in his lungs. In addition, he had a high fever that did not subside. It was obvious that he was terminally ill and could not survive. how long.

 But within a few days he was jumping around, how could it not surprise people?

 Furthermore, Jiang Erlang was diagnosed with lung disease a few years ago and took medicine for half a year before he got better.

Even the old disease seems to be gone now, my voice is clear, my lungs are healthy, and it couldn't be better.

Jiang Sanlang scratched the back of his head and said: "I didn't take any supplements. It was just ordinary meals made at home. Rice porridge with a stewed egg in the morning and evening. Well, I had some chicken, fish and vegetables for lunch."

 The stewed eggs are a matter of double yolk eggs, but Jiang Sanlang didn't want to tell them.

 Li Langzhong nodded, "I understand."

As he said that, he lowered his head and rummaged through the box to find pen, ink and paper, grinded the ink, picked up the pen, and started writing the prescription.

"Your second brother is already well, but he's still a little weak. I'll prescribe another dose of something to replenish qi and nourish the lungs, and you'll be fine after drinking it."

The old doctor knew that he couldn't get anything out of the question, so he stopped worrying about it. He wrote down the previous prescription in his mind and decided to try it on other people with lung diseases in the future.

Jiang Sanlang confirmed that his second brother was fine. He felt relieved and saluted Li Langzhong with clasped fists, "Thank you, Li Langzhong, for taking the trouble."

Li Langzhong waved his hand and handed the prescription to Jiang San. After receiving the consultation fee, he packed up the medicine box and stood up.

Jiang Sanlang sent Li Langzhong back to the drug store, grabbed medicine by the way, and then happily bought a few new year's goods and went home.

Just after crossing the stone arch bridge, I heard the noise in the village and wondered what was going on.

I quickly entered the village and saw a large circle of people gathered in front of my eldest brother's house. An old woman in her fifties was sitting in the middle of the crowd, slapping her thighs and crying.

"Ouch! You Jiang Liu, who has killed a thousand swords, used a sick son to deceive my daughter. What you said at first was ridiculous, but I didn't expect that you actually harbored evil intentions and wanted to harm my daughter...

Gosh! You are a poisonous woman with a mouth as sweet as honey, are you a human being? Your son is a tuberculosis ghost, and he deceived our family. I am going to sue you for cheating in marriage..."

The old woman was crying and beating her legs on the ground. A young woman was standing by her side, pretending to comfort her.

Behind the woman stood a dark-faced man in his twenties, looking around with an unkind expression.

 This... is actually Mrs. Cao, the second sister-in-law Leng's mother-in-law, and her brother-in-law.

Hearing another few words from the old lady about being sick and consumptive, Jiang Sanlang couldn't help but sink his face, and he pushed aside the crowd and walked in.

 “What’s going on?” he asked the eldest brother standing by the door.

Jiang Dalang said angrily: "The second brother's sister and her mother came to our house to make trouble, forcing the second brother to divorce her daughter. She also said that our family concealed the second brother's illness and asked our family to give her thirty taels of silver as compensation."

 “Thirty Liang?” Her family really dared to mention it.

Jiang Sanlang: "What did the second brother say?"

 Jiang Dalang sighed, "Erlang was so angry that he was lying in his parents' house."

 “I’ll go take a look.” Jiang Sanlang stepped into the yard.

Jiang Erlang was lying on the bed of his parents with his eyes closed at this time. His face was as pale as paper, and he looked like he had fainted from anger.

Mrs. Jiang Liu held him in tears and kept trying to comfort him: "Erlang, don't be angry. Your illness has been cured. Today, Mr. Li said that as long as you take care of him for a few more days, you will be healthy. Woohoo, okay." Child, don’t scare your mother…”

Jiang Sanlang saw that his second brother was so angry at Mrs. Cao, he couldn't help but clenched his fists, turned around and left the house.

 Ah, he really wants to hit someone.

If the woman hadn't been the second brother's mother-in-law, he would have really wanted to kick her out of the village.

 But, he cannot be impulsive.

That is the second brother's mother-in-law, and it is also his own family matter. He cannot act on his own initiative and ruin the second brother's marriage and family.
