Chapter 141 What kind of family

There are three common types of coughs in traditional Chinese medicine.

Wind-heat, wind-cold and dry-heat coughs.

Just now Anan said that her mother had symptoms such as chills and runny nose, which was obviously a cough caused by the cold.

Fever caused by wind and cold can be easily misdiagnosed due to high body temperature, and then drinking too many cooling medicines will make the condition worse.

Anan's mother's illness should be treated with herbs such as basil, dried ginger, and dried orange peel that can dispel cold and increase heat. How can she drink cold medicine...

What a pity.

The regret in Yin Huaixi's eyes was so obvious that Li Anan understood it immediately.

"I understand...Thank you, Doctor Yin..."

Li Anan held back his tears as he said goodbye to Yin Huaixi, then took his portion of the herbs back to the village.

She locked herself in the room and cried bitterly. When she came out, except for her red and swollen eyes, she felt much better.

Her mother is gone, and the grandmother who treated her is also dead. There is no point in pursuing the matter any further.

In order to prevent such tragedies from happening again in the village, she must study medicine well!

Today, Doctor Yin didn't chase me away. Does that mean she has a good impression of me? Next time she goes up the mountain, I should be able to follow her shamelessly.

Feelings, are developed through getting along with each other.

As long as I am thick-skinned enough, sooner or later Doctor Yin will accept me as her apprentice.

It’s good to take it slow now, I can still learn a lot.

Li Anan looked up at the sky with sparkling eyes.

"Mother, when I learn real medical skills, you will definitely be proud of me, right?"

Her voice was very soft, but the friends who were hiding nearby and preparing to scare her were very close and could hear it clearly.

"Anan seems to be really serious this time..."

"Is there really someone down there who is willing to teach her medicine?"

"Yes, the people down there have always disliked us."

Several people were whispering to each other, and the next moment, the dry grass cover above their heads was lifted by Li Anan.

"What are you guys hiding here for? Are you trying to scare me?"

"No, no, no!"

"We are hiding from Ah Xuan! Anan, do you want to play with us?"

Li Anan shook his head and refused.

She brought back a lot of medicinal herbs from the mountain, so she had to clean and dry them early. She had to go down the mountain early tomorrow morning.

"You guys go play, I have things to do."

Having said that, she turned and left, leaving the girls staring at each other.

"Anan..."

"It's like I've grown up all of a sudden."

They were not the only ones who felt this way. Li Zheng and Li Xiao, who usually paid the most attention to Li Anan, were also there.

Since he knew that Doctor Yin was a woman, Li Xiao's resistance to Anan going down the mountain to study medicine has decreased a little, but only a little. In fact, deep down, he still doesn't want Anan to go down the mountain.

The conflict between the people in the mountains and below the mountains has existed for a hundred years. Even if Anan changes his appearance and accent, he is still easily discovered.

He knew that there were good people at the foot of the mountain, but what if he happened to meet a bad person who hated the Li people? He couldn't bear any accident.

Li Xiao thought about it and felt that it was not a good idea to stop Anan from studying medicine. If a doctor could be invited to the village to teach her, she would not want to go down the mountain anymore, right?

But who should I invite?

Who would be willing to come to a Li village deep in the mountains to teach medicine?

Li Xiao started to have a headache.

————————————

At this time, bursts of vomiting sounds were heard from a forest in the next village.

"Keep your voice down!!"

Xiang Xing felt very aggrieved when she heard this.

She didn't want to make a sound, but it was an instinctive reaction and she couldn't hold it back.

"What did the doctor say? Did you have an upset stomach?"

Xiang Xing opened her mouth to say that she hadn't even seen a doctor, but when she saw the man's face opposite her, she felt a surge of anger in her heart.

Even though we were already in that situation, he was actually so afraid of me having a child.

I've said that I would definitely cancel the engagement, but it doesn't look like that now.

"The doctor said that this is a sign of pregnancy. Brother Hong, what should we do? If we are caught, will we be sunk into the sea?"

Xiang Xing lowered her head and wiped her tears, looking as if she was at a loss.

Qian Hong was a little annoyed, but the novelty of the experience had not yet worn off, so he still had some sympathy.

"It's okay. Go back to the doctor and get a prescription for abortion pills when it's getting dark."

As he spoke, he poured out twenty coins from his purse and put them in Xiang Xing's hand.

Xiang Xing: “…”

Just want to send her away for twenty cents? ?

No way!

"Brother Hong, I think this child came at the right time. You are going to break off the engagement with the girl from the next village anyway, and your family is urging you to get married, isn't this just right?"

Qian Hong almost couldn't control the expression on his face.

He has no intention of breaking off the engagement.

He had met Qian Xiaoman, the girl next door, twice. She was good-looking and had a good figure. The adults in her family loved her very much. Her dowry included not only silver but also various things such as wardrobes and boxes.

What's in Xiang Xing?

If you marry her, you won't get anything and you will be entangled by her alcoholic father. Only a fool would marry her.

If I hadn't drunk too much last time, I would have fallen into her trap...

Qian Hong was talking nonsense. Anyway, he would never marry such a woman.

As for the child, as long as she refused to acknowledge him, she wouldn't dare to make a fuss.

She will never get married in her life after all this trouble.

"Xiang Xing, listen up. We can't keep this child for now. I definitely can't marry you right after I break off the engagement. You can't afford to hold your pregnancy for a long time. Abort it first, and then we can have another child legitimately after we get married."

Qian Hong hugged Xiang Xing and coaxed her softly for a long time, and finally Xiang Xing stopped talking about the birth of the child.

He was afraid of being discovered, so he kissed Xiang Xing twice and hurriedly left the woods.

Xiao Manniang, who was hiding not far away, was about to rush out when she suddenly saw Xiang Xing's unstoppable tears on her face.

She hesitated.

If this gets out, Xiang Xing will definitely be finished.

Now that I have the leverage over Qian Hong, I can settle this marriage privately. Xiang Xing, just let her go.

well……

If a woman has a bad reputation, the spit of the village can drown her. This girl has taken the wrong path.

Xiang Xing is about the same age as Xiao Man, and Xiao Man's mother couldn't bear to pull her out.

After Xiang Xing left, she hurried back to the village.

In the evening, after the man came back, the family ate something quickly and went directly to Qian Hong's house.

At this time, almost every family was having dinner, and Qian Hong's family was no exception.

On the table, in front of Qian Hong there was a small bowl of stewed meat and rice, and in front of his parents there was some mixed-grain porridge and dried salted fish.

The family seemed to be accustomed to eating the food in front of them, but Xiao Man's mother felt a chill down her spine when she saw this.

If my daughter were to marry into our family, I'm afraid she would eat worse than these old couple.

The engagement must be cancelled!!
