Chapter 39 The Competitor is Gone
Qian Nan strode away, and when he passed by Ruan Fu, he said sorry lightly.
There was nothing more unpleasant than the scolding from one's beloved. Ruan Lanxiang trembled all over and could only burst into tears.
"Brother Nan, I was wrong. I will never dare to do it again..."
She apologized incoherently with tears streaming down her face.
Qian Nan walked straight into the factory without looking back.
Ruan Fu watched all this indifferently. Ruan Lanxiang originally wanted to marry Qian Nan, but things turned out like this. It was all her own fault.
She had no sympathy for the other party at all and turned away.
Grandma coughed a few more times this morning and her pneumonia sounded more serious.
I have so many things to do, I don't have time to bother with people like this.
She went to the suburbs without stopping to pick some loquat leaves and dug some thatch roots. Ruan Fu originally wanted to buy some fine needles for acupuncture, but these days, buying this requires a letter of introduction from the unit, and she couldn't get it for the time being. Seeing some mugwort leaves on the roadside, she had an idea and picked a lot of them. Moxibustion is also very good for the body, and the effect is no worse than acupuncture.
After finally packing everything up, I hurried home.
As soon as I arrived at the gate of the courtyard, I smelled the fragrance of food. Xie Dongmei had already prepared lunch.
Hot steamed buns with fragrant fried eggs and chives.
"Fuzi, this is your favorite food when you were a kid," Xie Dongmei kept picking up food for her and kept nagging, "Eat more, you're too skinny."
Grandma was so good to her that Ruan Fu felt warm in her heart. She took a bite of the steamed bread and made up her mind to cure the old lady's illness.
After dinner, she boiled the loquat leaves and thatch roots over low heat.
Then he took out the fluff of the moxa leaves, rolled them into moxa sticks, lit them and blew them.
Xie Dongmei watched her busying around, her expression obviously a little nervous.
But then she thought about how her palms had become more flexible after Ruan Fu had massaged her last night, and she felt a little more at ease.
"Grandma, I will use this moxa needle to give you acupuncture later. It will be a little hot, but it won't hurt. Just bear with it," Ruan Fu said like she was coaxing a child.
Xie Dongmei nodded and closed her eyes in trust.
Ruan Fu took a deep breath and touched the area inch by inch. Xie Dongmei had chronic synovitis on her palms, and she could just use moxa sticks to insert needles at the Mingmen and Yangchi points to cure it.
The skill of moxibustion requires a lot of experience. Although Ruan Fu has a wealth of theoretical knowledge, she hasn't given acupuncture herself in a long time, so she is inevitably a little nervous.
He didn't find the acupoint at first, and his hand shook, even burning Mrs. Xie's palm, causing her to gasp in pain.
"Grandma, I'm so sorry." Ruan Fu panicked and quickly threw away the burning moxa stick. "I was too nervous just now."
Xie Dongmei chuckled, patted the back of her hand, and said gently, "Take your time, don't be nervous, grandma won't blame you."
Ruan Fu was encouraged and her expression relaxed a lot.
Then light the moxa stick again, take a deep breath, rotate it on the moxibustion area, and move it repeatedly left and right.
Mugwort has a strong fragrance that makes people relax.
Xie Dongmei let out a long sigh and completely relaxed.
For some reason, after only ten minutes of moxibustion, she felt that her palm had gotten much better, and it seemed that the entire joint was much more relaxed.
Half an hour later, the moxibustion was completed, and Ruan Fu poured out another bowl of boiled herbs.
"Grandma, drink it while it's hot and combine it with moxibustion. You will definitely get better in a month."
Xie Dongmei reached out and took the bowl.
Then she looked at her palms, realized something, and her expression was filled with joy.
"Fuzi, look, grandma's fingers can be straightened..."
My fingers used to be very stiff, but now I can stretch them at will, and my knuckles are much softer.
She knew that her granddaughter could cure diseases, but she didn't expect that it would have such an effect after just one treatment. How could she not be surprised?
Ruan Fu smiled slightly. She certainly knew the benefits of moxibustion. This was just the beginning. In the future, she would carefully take care of the old woman's body and let her live out her life in peace.
"Grandma, I told you that as long as I'm here, your health will definitely get better."
Xie Dongmei looked at her well-behaved granddaughter and smiled lovingly.
"Okay, grandma, you have to take good care of your health and watch our Fuzi get married and have children. Then she can take care of your children."
"Grandma!" Ruan Fu said coquettishly and subconsciously buried her head in the other's arms.
For some reason, when talking about this topic, she suddenly thought of the lovely Tiantian in her mind. She wondered what the little girl was doing now, and Qin Fang, he should have returned to Beijing.
It would be really nice to have such a well-behaved daughter.
In the afternoon, Ruan Fu was going to Lotus Village to collect mulberry leaves as usual. Although she lived far away now, fortunately she had a bicycle, so it was very convenient to go back and forth.
After saying something to her grandmother, she rode her bike out the door.
Lotus Village is now extremely lively. Everyone in the village knows that mulberry leaves can be sold for money, and a large crowd has gathered at the entrance of the village.
Ruan Lanxiang returned to the village covered in dust and dirt like a defeated fighting cock. When those people from yesterday saw her, they rushed over.
"Sister Lanxiang, is the price of mulberry leaves still the same today? I picked 50 kilograms today, so you want them too, right?"
"I have 30 kilograms at home too, let's collect them together today!"
It would have been fine if this matter had not been mentioned, but as soon as it was mentioned, Ruan Lanxiang became furious.
She glared at him fiercely, "Get lost! I don't want it anymore, I don't want anything anymore!"
After finally getting rid of the crowd, he took a few steps when Aunt Hu pulled him back mysteriously.
"Lanxiang, you made a lot of money today, didn't you? Don't forget your aunt. My family picked a lot of good mulberry leaves. You can take them. Just pay the same price as yesterday."
Aunt Hu thought that the other party was grateful to her, after all, it was she who showed her a way to make money.
Unfortunately, the person Ruan Lanxiang least wanted to see at this moment was her. She said coldly, "Aunt Hu, I said I don't want it anymore. Don't you understand what I'm saying?"
Aunt Hu was stunned, thinking that the other party was tired and in a bad mood, so she could only smile and say, "Lanxiang, didn't you say yesterday that you would always have mulberry leaves from now on? I didn't even do any work in the fields today. I went out to pick them just for you. How can you just say you don't want them? People should be trustworthy. Don't be like your mother-in-law who regrets everything at the slightest provocation!"
This sounds like rubbing salt into the wound.
"I said no, and that's it," Ruan Lanxiang said, furiously, throwing a tantrum. "If you have the guts, take it to the county town and sell it yourself. Don't just instigate me from behind!"
"How can you talk like that, little girl?" Aunt Hu was unhappy. "Anyway, I don't care. You must collect my mulberry leaves today. You have to collect them!"
Ruan Lanxiang sneered, "I'm not going to take any shit. You can keep these mulberry leaves and eat them at home. It would be best if you can kill your whole family!"
After saying that, she pushed the other person away without saying anything else and rushed back home angrily.
