Ruan Meng asked Xiao Kai to watch the fire, then ran out quickly.
Then I saw that the second brother was holding a round ball-like thing in his hands, and his left hand was covering his head.
"What's wrong, Second Brother?"
As Ruan Meng approached, she noticed what her second brother was holding...
Is it a coconut? Yes, a coconut. The picture is from the internet. I've been on the island for over a month and haven't found a single coconut tree yet.
"Little sister, I was attacked when I came down from the village chief's house, and I picked this up from the ground!"
Ruan Meng didn't look at the coconut; she checked her second brother's head first. Luckily, it wasn't bleeding; there was just a bump.
"Don't move!"
She took out her needle bag and inserted it into the acupoints on her second brother's head to help remove blood stasis.
Hearing the commotion, the elder brother and sister-in-law also hurried out.
"What happened?"
"My sister-in-law asked."
The second son held up the coconut in his hand and began to recount his painful experience.
"Little sister, is it serious?"
The eldest sister-in-law asked Ruan Meng first.
"Thank goodness! It's just a bump. This thing is heavy; it's not impossible for it to knock someone unconscious or even kill them!"
Ruan Meng explained as she administered the acupuncture.
The eldest brother and sister-in-law immediately changed color, and the second brother's face turned deathly pale. He dared not joke anymore.
The older brother squatted down, took the coconut in his hand and examined it, then asked Ruan Meng a question.
"Little sister, is this a coconut?"
Ruan Meng turned around, "Big brother, do you recognize him?"
The older brother explained, "I've seen it in geography books, and when I paired it with a round picture, it suddenly came to mind."
After the acupuncture was finished, Ruan Meng instructed her second brother, "These next few days, stay at home and don't go anywhere."
"If someone feels dizzy or unwell, we can make sure we notice them in time. If they collapse on the street while we're out, the consequences could be disastrous."
The older sister-in-law worried, "Is this dangerous?"
Ruan Meng nodded, "The coconut is heavy, you can tell by lifting it. Judging from the bump on his head, there must be a blood clot in his brain. I give my second brother acupuncture every day, but he also needs to be extra careful."
"The head cannot be hit any more, and it should be kept within our sight as much as possible. In case the situation worsens, I can provide immediate assistance."
The eldest sister-in-law immediately instructed, "Second brother, you will stay with your little sister for the next few days, never leaving her side!"
The second son stared blankly at the coconut in his hand and sighed deeply.
Why is it him again?!
Ruan Meng thought of something else and asked her second brother:
"Second brother, a coconut fell from your head? Are there any other coconuts on the tree?"
Ruan Yi thought for a moment and replied, "No, I looked up when I got up, but I didn't see anything else."
“A dark shadow flashed by, and I felt it might have been a prank by the gibbons, like the last time they threw bananas at us.”
Ruan Meng was speechless, unsure how to respond.
If it were a gibbon throwing coconuts at someone, and my brother was walking at the time, there would have been a commotion, so he couldn't have been completely unprepared...
It means that the gibbon, from a not-too-close distance, can hit the target on its first try...
It hit the second brother right on the head.
Second brother's "luck" is incredible!
This is quite likely, after all, Ruan Meng went to the village chief's house several times and did not find any trace of coconut trees.
Therefore, it's more likely that the coconut was picked from elsewhere.
"Little sister, what's the use of a coconut?"
Seeing that his sister hadn't thrown away the coconut for a long time, Ruan Yi asked her curiously.
If it were useless, his sister would have already helped him "vent his anger".
"Coconuts have excellent nutritional and medicinal value. Coconuts contain coconut water and coconut meat, both of which are very nutritious."
"The Compendium of Materia Medica already records the medicinal uses of coconut water and coconut meat. Coconut water can treat edema, and coconut meat can invigorate qi." (Image of coconut water and coconut meat from the internet) The second son's eyes calmed down a bit, and he realized that he hadn't been hit for nothing.
"Little sister, do the coconut water and coconut meat taste good?"
The second son asked curiously.
"It tastes sweet and is even more refreshing than the sugarcane we've ever eaten."
Ruan Meng carried the coconut back and handed it to Xiao Kai inside the house.
"Come on! It's your time to shine!"
Xiao Kai was taken aback, looked at the coconut in his hand, and revealed a confident expression.
"good!"
He asked Ruan Meng for two large bowls, a small knife, and a wood-chopping knife.
After washing the knife and wood-chopping knife clean, the second brother, with a heart pounding in his chest, made a cut in the coconut.
Pour the coconut water into a bowl, scoop out the coconut meat, and put it into another bowl.
She brought in coconut water and coconut meat, showing them to Ruan Meng like a precious treasure.
Without further ado, Ruan Meng gave a thumbs-up and sighed:
"Ah! If only I had kept one chicken yesterday!"
