Chapter 37 Drug Efficacy
"Mom, I'm back." Chen Jinghua pushed open the courtyard door made of bamboo and shouted loudly.Now his home is just a [-]-square-meter mud room, divided into three rooms, the living room is in the middle, the room is on the left and the right, and the kitchen is an earth stove built under the eaves in the yard.Local lettuce and leeks are sparsely planted in the yard.

"Yes." A weak voice came from the parents' room on the right.Chen Jinghua hung it on a hook nailed out by the door, dug a scoop of water with a pumpkin water ladle and put it in a copper basin, washed his face and hands quickly, and then poured the water onto the vegetable field beside him.Thinking of the persimmons given by Qin Xiao in the schoolbag, he dug out another scoop of water, washed it and put it in a big bowl for the mother in the room.

"Mom, eat persimmons." Chen Jinghua put the big bowl on the chair beside the bed.

The woman who had been facing the inside of the bed braced her body and sat up.His face was pale and sallow, his lips were pitch-black, and his slender eyes were gray.However, the exquisite facial features can still see how amazingly beautiful they are when they are healthy. "Where did the persimmons come from?"

"My classmate gave it to me, mom, eat it quickly." Chen Jinghua helped her mother to lean against the head of the bed, carefully put a pillow on her waist, and then pulled up the quilt.Finally, I tore a small mouthful of the persimmon with my hand, and held the persimmon to my mother's mouth.Looking forward to my mother with big round eyes.

"Okay." Chen Jinghua's mother couldn't resist her son's expectant eyes, so she brought her mouth closer and took a light bite, thinking that she only needed to take one bite.But the sweet and smooth juice captivated my sense of taste, so I couldn't help but take a few more bites.Persimmons have no astringency at all, nor a trace of roughness, and are smoother than jelly.A persimmon bigger than a fist is quickly sucked flat. "It's delicious, Jinghua, thank you."

"I also think it's delicious." Chen Jinghua was very happy, because her mother couldn't eat anything, even traditional Chinese medicine, but now she could eat a persimmon, which is really great.

Chen Jinghua's mother, named Wu Weixi, is 29 years old. Since she gave birth to Chen Jinghua at the age of 22, her health has been getting worse and worse. From the very beginning, it hurts to eat, and now it hurts to swallow saliva.In fact, it was found to be rectal cancer early on, and surgery was performed.But the operation can only be delayed for three to five years.Now she herself knows that time is running out, but her only child, and her husband who has never given up, these are the most worrying things for her.But so what?I have been tortured by the disease for seven years, and I have traveled all over the country to see doctors, but the result is still the same.

Wu Weixi put her hand on Chen Jinghua's head and stroked it lightly, her eyes were sad.But at this moment, a coolness rose in the body and moved to the internal organs.She couldn't help but let out a comfortable breath.How long has it been?She didn't even remember how long she had been able to breathe out such a deep breath.And it's painless.

"Mom, what's the matter with you?" Chen Jinghua kept paying attention to his mother, and when he saw her exhale, he asked with concern.Thought she was in pain again.

"It's okay, I feel much better." Wu Weixi lowered his head and smiled gently at his son, proving that he was really not in pain.I really don't feel any pain, although my body is still heavy, but the coolness makes me relax a little.For her who has been ill for a long time, it is undoubtedly a long drought and rain, which is very comfortable.

"Really?" Chen Jinghua stared into his mother's eyes, afraid that she would be struggling, and thought about whether to go to the street to find a doctor at the health station to give her mother an injection of painkillers.

"Really." Wu Weixi nodded earnestly, looking at her little son in front of her, her heart felt sad again.He is so young!How could he leave him like this?

"That's good. I'll put the persimmons here. Mom, eat one first if you're hungry. I'll cook." Chen Jinghua looked at his mother's face again and again, and finally felt relieved, and helped her to lie down.

"Be careful with the fire, don't get burned." Wu Weixi was still a little worried about his son. Although he was a fast learner, he was still a child after all, and it was still very dangerous for him to start a fire.

"Yes, Mom, I will be careful." Chen Jinghua obediently agreed, knowing that her mother was worried that she would be burned like the first time she started a fire.Seeing his mother close her eyes, he took the military green water bottle on the chair and refilled half a bottle of warm boiled water, so that her mother could drink it when she was thirsty.

Chen Jinghua took the cabbage and went to the back of the house to pick up bamboo husks. There was firewood at home, but he couldn't make a fire himself, so he couldn't get it started.So he still prefers to pick up bamboo shells and burn them. Although the burrs on the bamboo will make his skin itchy when picking up bamboo shells, there is no way to do that.I can help my father who is working hard as a construction cement worker outside to share.However, although the bamboo shell has many burrs and is not burnt, it is really easy to ignite.

In addition, just now my mother is not in as much pain as before, and I am not so scared in my heart. Although my mother endures every pain, I still know it, so I yell every time outside the courtyard gate, Let my mother know that I am back, so that my mother will not be afraid of knowing her pain and groaning and feel sad and worried.

Maybe Dad's new foot doctor is really helpful, and just took a dose of medicine to stop Mom's sore chest and throat.
