Sometimes she wondered what was the purpose of life?
Perhaps, everyone’s desire to live is different.
Like her, just to have a healthy body and be able to run in the sunshine, she struggled and worked hard to live at such a young age.
Aunt Xie, it seems like she has never lived for herself in her life. She has spent her whole life looking for and waiting for her son.
Some people live for power, status, gold, silver, jewelry, wives, children and the elderly... In short, everyone seems to be living for a person or a thing.
But no matter how hard people try to live, they will eventually turn into a handful of earth. Why do people still have to work so hard to live?
Is it true that sometimes death is a relief?
When Old Man Luo came out, he saw Ye Zi in the yard, looking a little unhappy. He walked over and patted her: "Kid, it's not warm out, why are you standing outside?"
Ye Zi immediately came out of that inexplicable sadness and almost raised her hand to slap herself.
Really, why am I becoming more and more sentimental? This is not my character. It is said that people cannot see too many sad things and are easily infected.
"It's okay. I just wanted to wait for you to come out and ask about Aunt Xie's condition."
"Come on, come back with me first. There are people taking care of us in the village. You are just a little kid, don't always go to the homes of sick people."
Chen Ye took a look and saw that there were other aunts busy in Aunt Xie's room. Smoke was coming out of the kitchen. He quickly followed Grandpa Luo.
"You haven't told me how Aunt Xie is doing?"
"This old lady had been exhausted for a long time. Even if this incident hadn't happened, she wouldn't have lived for much longer. It's just that the stimulation was too great, causing her body to explode prematurely."
"If you can be optimistic and take good care of yourself, this winter might be over. If you can't be optimistic, it will only take a few days."
To put it simply, if the old lady could be more open-minded, she wouldn't be living like this now, like a walking skeleton, so nervous. If she really dies, it will be a different kind of enjoyment.
Chen Ye still had great confidence in Grandpa Luo's medical skills, but she felt a little melancholy, as if she had grown up and the old people in the village were starting to pass away one by one.
Hearing Chen Ye sigh, Old Man Luo patted Ye again. "Why are you sighing, little kid? Isn't this the same day for everyone? It's just a matter of time. Birth, old age, sickness, and death are the norm in life. How old are you and you're already worrying about it? When will it end?"
"I know, I just feel that Aunt Xie is a bit pitiful."
"There are so many pitiful people, can you be so pitiful as to treat them all?" Old man Luo has seen a lot of life and death, and he doesn't have so many abundant emotions, so he can face these things rationally.
"People, if they are depressed, no matter how much you sympathize with them, it's useless. This is not something a child like you should worry about. You are so young, just think about how to have a good time all day long."
"I'm fine. I just felt a little uncomfortable seeing Aunt Xie like this. I won't think too much about it. Are you going back to get some medicine?"
Old Man Luo shook his head: "I brought the medicine just now. Aunt Xie has always had this problem. She used to take medicine for a while every winter."
"It's useless. There's a knot in my heart that no magic pill can heal."
Even if a person is healthy, if he spends the whole day thinking about sad things, he may become sick, not to mention those who are not in good health.
It's true that Aunt Xie doesn't have any serious illness. She's just been upset and depressed, causing a minor illness to become more and more serious. Now her pulse is so weak that even a god can't save her.
"So, this person needs to be open-minded. If you have an open mind, no disease will find you."
"You're right. Can Aunt Xie do it alone?" The temperature at night is almost zero degrees Celsius. Aunt Xie can't even get out of bed in her current state, so she will not be able to endure it.
"Don't worry, the team leader asked several aunts in the village to take turns to take care of Aunt Xie." She won't live for many more days, and no one will be unhappy about it for just a few days.
"I'm home now. You just happened to follow me in. I made you some pills for headaches and fevers. You can bring them with you when you go to the city. If you run out, come get some from me."
"Ah! No need, do I need to prepare medicine for my condition?"
Even though she seems to eat a lot but never gain weight, she is in very good health. She has been sick less than once since she was a child. Every time she was sick, she just needed to drink some hot water and never needed to take any medicine.
"Don't talk nonsense. Just take it with you. If you're asked to change places suddenly, be fully prepared so that you don't end up with nothing when the time comes."
"Oh, and add some puffed tamarind and drink it when you heat the kang every day. You're always prone to getting sore throats, and when you do, your throat feels sore."
Chen Ye looked at Grandpa Luo with amusement as he kept nagging at her. He was not idle either, but walked around the house to arrange things for her to take away. Looking at his attitude, she wished he could ask her to carry the medicine cabinet with her.
"Just bring me some, old or young. I'll be back to stay during my holidays, so if you need anything, you can come back and get it. Besides, you'll be free in the winter, so you can come visit me."
Old man Luo paused as he was grabbing the medicine. Yes, it’s not that far. If there’s something missing, even if Ye Zi doesn’t have time to come back to get it, he can just ask someone to bring it over.
Throwing down the herbs in his hand, Old Man Luo clapped his hands and said, "Alright, take two more bottles of medicinal wine with you and start to manage the relationships. You will still be working under them in the future."
"Don't worry, I'm not good at flattery, but I have no problem getting along well with my superiors."
Old Man Luo snorted, "That would be best."
"Okay, I've given you everything. Go back to your own home." Old man Luo waved his hand and started to chase people away.
Chen Ye walked away with the things in his arms, smiling. Grandpa Luo looked awkward and childish.
"Ye Zi, have you just come back from Old Man Luo?" The one-eyed man sitting in the yard called Chen Ye.
Chen Ye turned around and walked into the yard of One-Eyed Grandpa and Grandpa Feng. "It's so cold out here! Why are you still sitting in the yard working? I've cleared out the shed for you. You can go work in the shed when it's cold."
The old man's hands are always busy all year round, and he has to work in the yard even in winter. Chen Ye couldn't let the old man waste his body like this, so he found some wood and built a special shed for the one-eyed grandfather to work in the yard.
There is also a stove inside made of bricks she made herself, so people will not get frozen even if they work inside in the middle of winter.
