Chapter 21: Just live for five or six years? That won't work.
I couldn't help but feel my eyes turn red.
This time when I was sent back down, my family was labeled as having a bad background and there was nothing we could do about it as we were being bullied everywhere.
The eldest brother couldn't go out because of his leg injury, and the second brother had a bad temper, so no one dared to say anything.
The younger daughter, Gu Ningning, is in poor health and thin, so she is often bullied, but there is nothing that can be done about it.
Ningning is sensible and has digested many things by herself. She doesn't want to make herself worry at all. Mother Gu has no choice...
"It's Su Zhiqing, come in, come and sit down." Mother Gu knew that Su Niannian had helped her little daughter, and she was very grateful. She hurriedly wanted to pull Su Niannian in, but her hands were a little dirty. She raised them halfway, looked at her hands, and put them down again, making a gesture of invitation.
Su Niannian didn't care and just grabbed Gu's mother's hand.
"Yeah, okay." Su Niannian didn't show any shyness or disgust, and just walked in holding Gu's mother's hand.
This made Mother Gu feel a little embarrassed. After inviting Su Niannian into the main house, she went to pour her a glass of water.
Su Niannian looked around the room. The original white color of the walls had turned a little yellow, and there were old newspapers pasted below the waistline.
There was a large wardrobe and two large boxes in the room, neatly arranged.
Although there aren't many things in it, there isn't much dust and it looks very clean.
In the previous life, when I met Gu Nan again, his parents and elder brother were already gone.
Only Gu Ningning was left by Gu Nan's side.
Gu Ningning had always been in poor health. Later, she had an accident while studying in the city and passed away.
Thinking about it this way, Gu Nan really had a miserable fate.
However, this time when Su Niannian comes back, she will definitely try her best to do what she can.
I hope to change the fate of the Gu family.
Just as Su Niannian's thoughts drifted away, Gu's mother started coughing again.
Gu Ningning immediately went to pour a glass of water for Gu's mother.
Mother Gu took a sip of water but continued to cough.
Su Niannian stepped forward and supported Gu's mother's wrist, and also checked her pulse.
In her previous life, Su Niannian knew that Gu Nan had taken her mother to the city for an X-ray and found out that she had lung cancer, so she was mentally prepared.
However, Chinese medicine cannot determine whether a patient has lung cancer by taking the pulse.
I don’t know whether Gu’s mother’s condition has developed to the stage of lung cancer.
However, judging from the pulse, it is a very serious case of qi stagnation and blood stasis.
"Aunt, do you have phlegm when you cough? Sometimes you breathe rapidly and feel like you can't breathe?" Su Niannian asked softly.
Mother Gu was also a little surprised to see that such a young girl could actually take a pulse.
But he still nodded, "There will be phlegm, and sometimes it will be difficult to breathe."
"There is phlegm. Will there be blood in the phlegm?" Su Niannian continued to ask.
When Gu Ningning heard what Su Niannian said, she was suddenly frightened.
Blood……
If her mother coughed up blood... even though she was young, Gu Ningning knew what it meant.
In fact, Mother Gu didn't want to make Gu Ningning worry, but seeing Su Niannian's calm and mature appearance, she somehow ignited the hope that her illness could be cured, so she answered truthfully, "Yes."
Gu Ningning just felt a tightness in her chest. It seemed that her mother's illness was more serious than she thought.
Gu Ningning pulled her mother's clothes and felt her nose sore and she wanted to cry.
Su Niannian, on the other hand, felt that Gu's mother's illness must have been very serious.
Mother Gu's words and pulse have already told Su Niannian that there is really no hope for her future mother-in-law.
If he were to go back to modern times, he might be able to live for another three or four years, after all, medicine was very well developed at that time.
But now, if I don’t intervene in the treatment, it may take more than half a year.
Although the person's condition doesn't seem that serious, he is actually weak inside.
Even if I use all my medical skills, I'm afraid I can only last for five or six years.
If it is not in the late stage, it may take longer.
Five or six years... this is not what Su Niannian wants to see.
Space spiritual spring! What Su Niannian brought back was not only the medical skills of the national master of Xinglin, but also the spiritual spring water in the space. It is not impossible to heal...
Thinking of this, a smile appeared on Su Niannian's face.
His eyes lit up, "Aunt, it's okay, I'll go to the county tomorrow and get you some Chinese medicine, and you'll definitely get better by then."
"Combined with acupuncture, I believe it will be cured in a few months." Su Niannian said gently.
Every word was like ripples in the water, stirring the hearts of the mother and daughter.
For some reason, Mother Gu trusted the little girl in front of her very much.
Her every smile, every word, can soothe my heart.
"Thank you so much. But I wonder if the treatment will be expensive?" Mother Gu was not unaware of her own situation.
Gu Nan also took her to the city. Although the doctor did not tell her in person, she still remembered the look of Gu Nan when he walked out of the hospital with red eyes.
"No, they are just some Chinese medicine. They won't cost much."
After hearing what Su Niannian said, Gu's mother felt relieved. If her illness could be cured, she could also go to the fields to earn work points.
It definitely makes more money than weaving bamboo baskets at home.
That way, Gu Nan wouldn't be so tired, and he could share some of the burden at home.
Thinking of this, he turned around and prepared to get money for Su Niannian.
"Sister Nian Nian, do you really have a way to cure my mother?" Gu Ningning pulled the hem of Su Niannian's clothes and asked expectantly.
In fact, she never doubted what Sister Nian Nian said, she just wanted to hear a clear and accurate answer.
"Yes." Su Niannian said with a smile, her eyes curved and her words full of conviction.
Gu Ningning jumped for joy.
Mother Gu took out three dollars and a few dimes and handed them to Su Niannian.
"That's all I have for now. I still have a little money left for crossing the river. I'll give it to you first."
Su Niannian didn't answer and said she would talk about it after she came back.
"No, if you don't take it, I don't want you to treat me anymore."
"How can you pay for my medicine yourself?"
"I'm already very grateful to you for helping me with the treatment." Mother Gu did not take her hand away because of Su Niannian's words.
Instead, he stuffed handfuls of money into Su Niannian's hands.
Su Niannian thought for a moment, stuffed the two dollars back, and took one dollar and sixty-five cents for herself.
"I'll buy medicine for ten days first. This money will be enough."
Seeing this, Gu's mother wanted to say something, but Su Niannian pouted her lips and looked like she didn't want to take any more.
"You really don't need that much. Chinese medicine is not as expensive as you think." Su Niannian said again.
In fact, Gu's mother knew that Chinese medicine was actually very expensive. Gu Nan had bought some for him before, and it was not cheap.
If Gu Nan hadn't hunted and sold the game privately, the family would have had trouble even getting enough to eat, let alone money for medicine or medical treatment...
