Chapter 6

Mrs. Wang raised her sleeve and wiped away her tears, "Your brother, he...he has been coughing dryly for the past few days. He wanted to hire a doctor for him, but the family didn't have much money so he was delayed. Who..." Wang Shi said that tears flowed down again, "Who... who knows that it became more and more serious later, with fever, chest pain, and coughing up sputum, and finally the sputum was still bloodshot. I... I really can't do anything, this is why I asked a doctor to look at it, and he said it was a closed lung, wheezing and coughing... The money at home is only enough for the doctor to visit the doctor, not enough for the medicine, and the doctor also said, I'm afraid... I'm afraid it's..."

Wang finally burst into tears.

Xu Xiaofu frowned, and what he said was pneumonia. This disease is nothing in modern times, but it was almost a terminal disease in ancient times.

What should I do now?Although she has a diet prescription for pneumonia, she still needs to grab the medicine. Diet therapy can only be an aid to this disease.But she knows how poor the Xu family is now, money, where should I get money?But she also has a folk remedy for pneumonia, and she doesn't know if it works or not.

"Mother..." Xu Xiaofu opened his mouth but suddenly didn't know what to say, after a while he said: "I'll go back with you to see my little brother."

That's what Wang came here for, she didn't have any hope for Xu Qingfei's recovery at all, and she just wanted Xiaofu to visit Qingfei this time. Qingfei was eight years younger than Xiaofu, so he was brought up by Xiaofu.

"Your mother-in-law can't..." Wang Shi said, looking up at Xu Xiaofu, hesitant to speak.

Xu Xiaofu knew what she was going to say, and said: "Mother, don't worry, my mother-in-law is next door, I just go and tell her."

"Okay, I'll be waiting for you."

Xu Xiaofu immediately went to Granny Zhang's house next door. Mrs. Zheng likes to chat with Granny Zhang when she has nothing to do.As soon as Xu Xiaofu left, Mrs. Zheng's expression changed and she snorted.On the contrary, Granny Zhang smiled and said, "Xiaofu, why are you here, but looking for your mother-in-law?"

Xu Xiaofu smiled and said: "Yes." Then he turned his head to look at Mrs. Zheng and said, "Mother, my little brother is seriously ill, I want to go back and see him."

Mrs. Zheng said fiercely: "You are not allowed to go, who will do the business when you go to the house?"

Xu Xiaofu remained silent, and Granny Zhang at the side persuaded Mrs. Zheng, "You are really serious, little brother Xiaofu is sick, go back and see what's going on. Well, Xiaofu, go quickly, your mother-in-law, I will help you." Just advise."

Xu Xiaofu hesitated for a moment, then thanked Granny Zhang, said hello to Mrs. Zheng, and went out.

Afterwards, Xu Xiaofu went to Xiaohuzi and Xiaomeizi to pick up the lotus. She was worried that Hehua would stay at home alone, otherwise she might abuse Hehua when Mrs. Zheng returned.

Xu Xiaofu took He Hua back to Xu's house together, He Hua was very excited along the way, chattering and asking questions.He Hua has never seen Xu's family since she was born. This time she knew that she could go back to see her grandfather, and her uncle and uncle seemed very happy.

Xu's house is not far from Zheng's house, only half an hour's walk away. The Xu's house is an old house, very dilapidated.Following Mrs. Wang into the yard, Father Xu was squatting on a stone platform in the yard, smoking a pipe, frowning, unable to hide the sadness between his brows.Seeing Xu Xiaofu and He Hua coming in, he was obviously taken aback.

Wang said: "Old man, Xiaofu is back, this is a lotus."

Father Xu nodded, and said to Xu Xiaofu: "Come back? But you know Qing Fei is sick? Hey, you go in and see him."

Xu Xiaofuen said, let Hehua stay outside, and went in to see Qingfei by himself.Pneumonia is contagious to a certain extent, and the body of the lotus is too small. It is not good for the body, so it is best to pay attention to it.Xu Xiaofu entered the room, and saw a handsome but very thin boy lying on the bed.

The boy's face was pale.From far away, Xu Xiaofu could hear the boy's rapid breathing.She steps forward.

The young man woke up when he heard the sound, looked towards Xu Xiaofu, saw Xu Xiaofu, and was stunned, as if he couldn't believe his eyes, and after a long while, he said softly, "Third Sister? You , cough cough...how did you come back? cough cough..."

Xu Xiaofu looked at the young man in his memory, and hurriedly said: "Xiao Fei, don't talk, you need to rest more. I won't leave for a few days. We'll talk when you get well."

Xu Qingfei looked at her for a long time, finally nodded and smiled at Xu Xiaofu.Xu Xiaofu comforted him a few more words before leaving the room.

Outside, Mr. Xu was squatting under the eaves with a sad face, while Mrs. Wang was sitting on a small bench, holding a lotus in his arms.

Xu Xiaofu looked at them, feeling sour in his heart, and secretly wiped his eyes, Xu Xiaofu said: "Mom, I have a folk remedy that I don't know if it can cure Xiaofei, but you can try it, and there are a few other therapeutic prescriptions Maybe it's good for Xiao Fei, too."

She was a nutritionist in her previous life, and she is very familiar with dietary therapy, because this profession also wrote down a lot of folk remedies, including this pneumonia folk remedies, a few simple things, fresh mussels, silver flowers, and chrysanthemums.There are fresh mussels in the river, silver flower and chrysanthemum are both for clearing away heat and reducing heat, and most people have them. These don’t need to cost money, but the ingredients in the diet recipe need to be purchased, and there is no money at home. You need to find someone to borrow some money.

Wang Shi and Mrs. Xu both raised their heads to look at Xu Xiaofu when they heard the words, and Wang Shi said excitedly: "Xiaofu, is what you said true?"

Xu Xiaofu nodded, and said: "Mother, folk remedies don't need to cost money, but the ingredients on the diet prescription need some money, can you... borrow some from relatives, and return them later."

Without what Mrs. Wang said, Father Xu, who had been smoking a pipe, said, "You don't have to worry about the money, I'll borrow some from your uncle, and I'll just pay it back later."

Wang said worriedly: "Boss...will they borrow it?"

Father Xu stopped talking, and Xu Xiaofu sighed in his heart, thought for a while and said: "Mother, I will explain the recipe first, and I will give it to Xiao Fei to eat at night. Mother, this recipe requires fresh mussels five to five Seven, the shells are thin, yellow and fat. Put the fresh mussels on the charcoal. When the shells open, pour out the liquid inside and mix with the decoction of silver flower and chrysanthemum. After frying, wait until it cools down. Take it, one dose a day."

Then Xu Xiaofu narrated the diet recipes again, the ingredients in the diet recipes all need money to buy, such as lily, barley, almonds, pears, rock sugar, etc. These are not cheap things, one It takes one or two taels of silver to eat it for a month.

Hearing these ingredients, the two elders became depressed.After a while, Father Xu put the pipe in his hand on his waist, stood up, and said, "Okay, I'll go to the river to find some fresh mussels..."

"Old man, your body...it's very cold." Wang said worriedly.

"Father, I'll go." The courtyard door suddenly opened, and a slightly honest voice came.
