Nowadays, the country’s poverty alleviation policies are getting better and better.
After the Spring Festival, the government helped Aunt Li build a toilet outside the yard and even paved the yard.
Li Xian took Tang Qingshan and his son into Aunt Li's house.
"Sister Li."
"Who is it?"
"It's me, Xian'er."
"It's Xianzi, come in, I'm already lying on the bed."
As they were talking, Aunt Li had already turned on the light, got up, and opened the door of the inner room.
"Why are you here? Hey, Xiaobao is back?"
As soon as Aunt Li saw Tang Xiaobao, she immediately asked in surprise.
She still loves Tang Xiaobao more.
Since she had no children, she loved Tang Xiaobao especially much. Since he was a child, Tang Xiaobao was always given a bite of delicious food.
It's just that now that she's old, she's become more distant from Tang Xiaobao's family.
Maybe she was afraid of causing trouble to others.
She's been like this all her life.
"Auntie, I heard you were sick, so I came to see you."
Tang Xiaobao hurried forward, supported Aunt Li, and pulled her to sit on a chair beside him.
"Hey, I'll go get you some water."
Aunt Li was about to get up, but Tang Xiaobao held her down: "Let me do it, Auntie. Why are you being so polite to me?"
"Then I'll trouble you, Xiaobao."
Aunt Li looked at Tang Xiaobao lovingly and said, her forehead was filled with a relieved smile.
Tang Xiaobao poured three cups of boiling water and several people sat down.
Li Xian said, "Sister Li, I was originally planning to ask Secretary Tang to take you to the hospital for a checkup, but Xiaobao is back and has volunteered to check on you. Don't underestimate him, he's a renowned doctor who can treat any illness. He's even better than going to a big hospital."
"Auntie, I heard that you always faint?" Tang Xiaobao asked with concern.
Aunt Li waved her hand and said, "Don't listen to their nonsense. I'm not sick."
Tang Qingshan was anxious: "Sister-in-law, we are not talking nonsense. Have you been fainting recently? Let Xiaobao take a look at you. It's for sure."
"Yes, I have been fainting a lot recently, but I know why. It's not a disease, it's fate. I'm old, and there are some things I can't tell you. But one thing is, don't go to the back mountain if you have nothing to do. It's not clean there."
sweat……
When Tang Xiaobao heard this, his heart moved.
The back mountain is not clean.
If other people heard this, they would definitely think that Aunt Li was senile and feudal and superstitious, but to him, it was not the case.
There are ghosts and gods in this world, and he has seen too many of them. It is possible that what he said about the mountain behind being unclean is true.
Is it a ghost?
He felt relieved.
If he really was possessed by an evil spirit, he did have a way to deal with it. He estimated that all the ghosts in the world would retreat away from him when they saw him.
Then, Tang Xiaobao used his spiritual sense to detect Aunt Li's body, and then he frowned.
He was very sure that there was nothing unclean possessing Aunt Li.
Then why does she still say that?
He was a little confused.
Li Xian winked at Tang Xiaobao and smiled bitterly.
It seems that he doesn't believe what Aunt Li said.
"Sister Li, let Xiaobao take a look at it for you."
Li Xian said.
Aunt Li waved her hands and said, "I'm really not sick. Why are you bothering Xiaobao? You're such a jerk! Xiaobao is a very busy man. He's already busy with so many things at the company. How could I bother him to treat me?"
"Auntie, let me show you."
Tang Xiaobao sat over and said with a smile, "I'll just take your pulse."
"I'm not sick, no need to take my pulse."
Aunt Li said earnestly, "Xiaobao, I really need to remind you that you must not go to the back mountain unless you have something to do. Even if you want to go, you must find someone to go with you. And don't go in the morning or evening. Only go at noon when the yang energy is strong. It's really not clean there."
It can be seen that she really cares about Tang Xiaobao.
Tang Xiaobao nodded quickly: "Okay, I'll listen to Auntie. I won't go to the back mountain, but you have to listen to me too. Let me feel your pulse, so I can rest assured. I also believe Auntie is not sick, but if you don't let me feel your pulse, you see my dad and Uncle Xian are also worried. They will have to send you to the hospital later. Aren't you the one who is most afraid of going to the hospital? After all this trouble, they can find out that you are sick even if you are not sick."
When facing the stubborn Aunt Li, Tang Xiaobao has his own way.
Sure enough, after hearing this, Aunt Li compromised.
She thought for a moment and said, "Then I'd better let you take a look at me. I don't want to go to the hospital. I still have so much farm work to do at home."
"I've told you many times, you're so old, why are you still working on the farm? Why don't you move in with us? We'll take care of you in your old age and be filial to you."
Tang Qingshan said seriously.
Aunt Li immediately refused sternly: "I have hands and feet, I can still do things, I can take care of myself, I just hope that if I die in the future, you can help me find someone to bury me. I have found a place and the coffin is ready."
Tang Xiaobao immediately said, "Auntie, don't say such depressing words. You are still in good health. Come, come, let me feel your pulse first."
Finally, Aunt Li stretched out her hand.
Tang Xiaobao took the patient's pulse carefully.
In fact, he had just checked and it seemed that Aunt Li was really healthy and there were no resentful ghosts or anything like that.
This time, after taking the pulse, he had a better idea of what was going on.
Aunt Li was indeed not sick, or rather, her illness was not an ordinary one.
She was so scared that she had problems. Moreover, she had been too frugal for many years and had not gotten enough nutrition.
To put it simply, she was malnourished, which explains why she fainted.
This has something to do with her lifestyle.
She is famous for her frugality in the area.
This is not just ordinary frugality on her part.
Let's put it this way, everyone knows that Auntie usually only eats two meals a day, most of the time it's just a small dish of fermented black bean paste and porridge, and she only eats meat during Chinese New Year and other festivals...
Tang Xiaobao remembers that when he was a child, there was no firewood to burn in the mountains. When the river flooded, a lot of firewood would be washed down and soaked in the water bend. The whole village would go to pick it up, dry it, and then carry it back home to burn.
Aunt Li was no exception, but the firewood she saved, bundled into bundles, could be kept for more than ten years, but later it turned into powder. What she usually burned was mostly leaves and the like.
You can imagine how frugal she is.
Tang Xiaobao had a clue in his mind and said with a smile, "Auntie is really not sick."
When Aunt Li heard this, she said, "You all heard it, didn't you? Xiaobao said I'm not sick. He's a miracle doctor. Now you can rest assured. You don't have to ask me to go to the hospital anymore. I know my body best."
Tang Qingshan and Li Xian both looked at Tang Xiaobao with confusion.
Not sick?
Tang Xiaobao winked at them and then said, "I'm really not sick. Oh, you and Uncle Xian can go back first. I'll chat with Auntie for a while longer."
