Chapter 64 Lin Xia



Chapter 64 Lin Xia

The male doctor’s surname was Shen, and they became familiar with each other after a few words.

Doctor Shen: “Don’t worry, sister, your illness is not serious. It’s sudden. Can you tell me how you got sick?”

He wanted to know the cause.

Lin’s mother began to talk.

Her illness was purely caused by fear.

When she was a child, she was scared by her mother and brother, and later by her daughter-in-law. Recently, her son’s divorce clearly made her feel heavy, but there were always strange movements at night these days.

At first she thought it was a dream, but later she found out that it was not.

The first time she slept in the middle of the night, she suddenly heard a creaking sound that made her teeth ache, like nails breaking glass.

The second time she had just fallen asleep, she heard a "bang". Someone was knocking on a pot behind her house. She was frightened and her heart was pounding.

She turned on the light and looked, and found that a skinned dead rat had been thrown into the main room. It was bloody and scary.

The next day she told Aunt Lin and Zhou's mother, and everyone agreed that it was the Sun family who did it.

But they hadn't caught the person, and they couldn't directly say it was them, because they would definitely not admit it.

Aunt Lin and Uncle Lin wanted to help her catch the troublemaker, and they thought it was either Sun Er or Sun Xiaohong, but they waited all night but no one came.

Everyone had to go to work during the day, and they couldn't wait forever, they still had to sleep.

Just as Lin's mother fell asleep, someone threw a broken bottle into the yard, and it broke outside her window, which scared her again.

This happened for a few days in a row, and her heart was uncomfortable. She would beat fast and get nervous when she heard any sound.

Last night, she heard a crackling sound, so she turned on the light and went to the main room to see, and found that the back window that was originally closed was open, and there was a yellow-green snake hanging on it. She was so scared that she fell to the ground with a bang.

Fortunately, Baoer was woken up by her and cried loudly, and then attracted Aunt Lin.

Aunt Lin didn't sleep well those days because the two houses were next to each other, and she would hear any movement in Lin's mother's house.

The old lady was a light sleeper to begin with, and she was also angry because she couldn't catch the bad guys.

But she was in good health, so it was okay.

Doctor Shen was speechless, "This guy...you have to ask the police to catch him."

Lin's mother: "Hey, I thought she would stop making trouble after two days of making trouble. Wouldn't it be more irritating to ask the police?"

She didn't want to bother others. She was already uncomfortable enough when everyone came to help her son's divorce. She always felt that she owed them a favor.

If Sun Xiaohong kept making trouble, wouldn't she have to bother others all the time?

She thought she should be patient and wait for the old man and Lin Yue to come back.

How could she know that she would get sick because of this patience?

Lin Shu didn't blame her. She felt worse than anyone else when something happened, and blaming her would not help.

Lin Shu said, "Mom, don't worry. We will report to the militia company at the commune and let them arrest them. Regardless of whether it is the Sun family or not, we have to ask them at this critical moment. They have conflicts with us. If not them, who should we suspect?"

Lin's mother sighed, still thinking that it is better to resolve a feud than to create one. The Sun family is like a bully. Once you get attached, you can't get rid of it. You can't

live in peace in the future. Doctor Shen smiled and said, "This person is bullying the weak and afraid of the strong. They just think you are easy to bully. I will think about giving them a hard time later."

He comforted Lin's mother and told her not to worry, there was no serious problem.

Doctor Shen meant that Lin's mother did not need surgery, and she just needed to stay in the hospital for a few days for observation and take medicine and rest.

The key is to relax and stop being afraid.

Doctor Shen is knowledgeable and he thinks that half of the reason for Lin's mother's illness is psychological and mental. She is nervous and gets scared at the slightest disturbance. She may also be prone to daydreaming, which will naturally affect her sleep and body. The other half is malnutrition.

There is no big problem with Lin's mother, so Lin Shu asked Fang Dihua to see an eye doctor.

Fang Dihua: "I didn't bring any change of clothes, so don't bother. We can get it done at the county hospital."

Lin Shu smiled and said, "Mom, the city hospital is of course more advanced than the county hospital. It's okay with your clothes. They have hospital gowns. Just wash your clothes and wear them when you leave."

Fang Dihua: "I didn't bring a letter of introduction either."

Lin Shu: "As long as you can prove your identity, you don't need a letter of introduction to see a doctor. You only need one to stay in a hotel and do business."

Why do you need that now that you know Dr. Shen?

Lin Shu accompanied her to register and go to the ophthalmology department for an examination.

There are few patients in the ophthalmology department, and the doctor is not so busy, so he can do it on her that day. It's

a minor operation, and the doctor said that she doesn't need to be hospitalized.

But Lin Shu still let her stay for a few days.

Fang Dihua's surgery was done that day, and her left eye was wrapped with gauze. She only needed to change the dressing regularly and hang water to prevent inflammation.

At night, Lin Shu asked Fang Dihua and Lin's mother to have a good rest, and she was responsible for taking care of Baoer.

Baoer has always been cared for by his grandparents, and even a little spoiled, but he is not rude, but has a good temper inherited from his ancestors.

He has a gentle temperament, and he will not cry as long as he sees one of his grandparents no matter where he is when he is full and full.

Lin Shu told him a little story about the two of them, and he fell asleep.

It was past eight o'clock, and Lin Shu also wanted to lie down and take a nap. At this time, an old lady from next door quietly slipped in and whispered, "Girl, girl."

Lin Shu: "Auntie Jiang, what's the matter?"

Before, when Lin Shu went to fetch water, the old lady took two hot pots each. Lin Shu helped her a little, and the two of them got to know each other.

Auntie Jiang smiled and said, "Your lithospermum ointment sounds very useful. Do you have any more? I want to buy two."

Lin Shu flipped through it and found one in Lin's mother's luggage. She gave it to her before, and Lin's mother was also used to carrying it with her to rub Baoer.

Lin Shu: "Auntie, it's just half a box, I'll give it to you."

Aunt Jiang didn't want to take advantage of it, she smiled and said: "How can I do that? I've asked around, this small box costs one yuan, if it's a big box, it's three yuan."

Lin Shu: "..."

They really dare to sell it.

But the purple grass is not easy to come by, and the train freight is very expensive, so it's understandable.

The main consumers of such an expensive ointment could not be rural members, or even ordinary people in the city. They must have some spare money at home.

Aunt Jiang looked at the remaining amount, and then took out three pounds of grain coupons and gave them to Lin Shu.

Her family had no shortage of grain coupons, and they could not use them all on a regular basis. It was just right to exchange this for ointment.

Lin Shu was also happy, because her family was short of grain coupons.

Everyone was happy.

Aunt Jiang: "My dear, do you have any more? Please exchange some for me later. I want to exchange it again next year."

Lin Shu: "Aunt, it's hard to say. Our home is far from the city. If there is nothing, she may not come easily." She saw that although Aunt Jiang was dressed simply, she was dressed neatly, her clothes were not patched, and her hair was clean and odorless. She must be from a good family, so she said: "In fact, this ointment is mainly sold in our county hospital. The city hospital probably has it too. You can definitely buy it if you ask."

Aunt Jiang: "Hey, no, my son is very old-fashioned, so he won't help me to use the back door."

Lin Shu exchanged contact information with her and said that she would exchange food coupons with her if she had the chance. Anyway, she would come to her second sister's house in the future.

After chatting for a few words, the old lady left first. Her second daughter-in-law was giving birth.

Lin Shu woke up at dawn the next day.

The inpatients in the hospital were either giving birth or suffering from serious illnesses. The house was not soundproofed and there were always cries. The crib was not comfortable either, so Lin Shu did not get a good rest.

Mother Lin felt at ease and safe with someone by her side, so she slept well and did not hear any sound.

Fang Dihua also woke up and went to the bathroom.

Lin Shu wanted to accompany her, but she refused, "I'm fine."

The old lady had a pair of big feet with great strength, and they made a thumping sound when she stepped on the floor, which was really shocking.

Lin Shu went to wash up briefly, then picked up Baoer to comfort him.

Baoer slept soundly, but the pillows in the hospital were not suitable, so he kept snoring.

He had been sleeping without any response. Lin Shu whistled for him and he snored. She took him back and continued to sleep next to Lin's mother.

Lin's mother woke up and said to Lin Shu, "I feel better. How about we go home?"

She was afraid of spending money. She had to go through the examination, stay in the hospital, and get injections. Wouldn't

it cost more than ten yuan? How much did she earn this year?

Lin Shu: "Mom, please follow the doctor's orders. You two have to stay in the hospital for observation."

She explained why they had to stay in the hospital for observation.

Mother Lin then stopped making a fuss and wanted to go back, and let Lin Shu sleep in her hospital bed, "Your little bedmate is too small, Bao'er doesn't want to sleep, you sleep here, I'll get up and move around."

Lin Shu: "I'm awake too, I'll go get food later."

After dinner, Lin Shu saw that Fang Dihua and Mother Lin were fine, they just needed to get the injections on time.

She said she was going to her second sister's house.

Fang Dihua: "You go. The tractor factory is probably very busy with training, and we have nothing to do, so it's okay if they don't come."

Lin Shu: "But you still have to tell them, no matter how busy they are, they have time to come and see."

Fang Dihua was also afraid that her third daughter-in-law would meet a bad guy and be bullied. After all, she was a delicate and beautiful daughter-in-law. She used to be timid and didn't speak her mind, but now she dares to speak and act, and every man would look at her with open eyes.

Look at the two men strolling around at the door. They have been peeking their heads out and looking at her since last night. She doesn't know!

The two men felt Fang Dihua's fierce gaze and quickly pretended to walk away as if nothing had happened.

Lin Shu put on her backpack and habitually carried her ID with her. The introduction letter from the brigade before, although it was out of date, could still prove who she was.

She asked the nurse on the first floor about the bus route to the steel mill. She had to change buses in the middle and walk for a while.

The urban area has not been developed yet. It is not very big, but there are few buses, so it is not very convenient.

There was a human-powered tricycle on the side of the road with a roof to block the sun. It was originally a private business, but later it became a state-owned enterprise through a public-private partnership.

There are two styles, customers sitting in the back with the driver in the front and customers sitting in the front with the driver in the back.

Lin Shu felt it was a bit awkward for the driver to be in the back, and she would rather she look at others than let others stare at her.

She found a car with the back seat and got in.

This is more convenient than changing cars and only a little more expensive.

When he heard that she was going to the steel mill, the master started talking, "Sister, your husband is in the steel mill?"

Lin Shu: "My second sister is an electrician in the steel mill."

The driver was surprised and said, "A woman is an electrician? Wow, that's amazing."

He wanted to continue asking, but Lin Shu interrupted him and asked about his own affairs.

Instead of letting the driver ask about her private affairs, it is better to let him talk about his own.

The driver was very talkative. He started talking about all the famous things he had done, how much money he had made, how he was plotted against, how he was demoted, etc.

He was talking excitedly when Lin Shu interrupted him, "Master, here we are, here we are!"

The driver pulled the brake and smiled, "I was so happy chatting with you that I forgot the way."

Lin Shu paid the money and went to the security department at the gate of the steel mill to register, saying who she was visiting, and then went directly to the family compound at the back.

My second sister Lin Xia is a second-level electrician at the steel mill and is preparing for the third-level exam. My brother-in-law is a fifth-level clamper and also wants to take the sixth-level exam.

Today is Sunday and we can take turns to rest. If Lin Xia is not on a day off, she can also take a break at her discretion.

The second sister lives in a tube-shaped building in the courtyard of the steel mill. Because her brother-in-law is the team leader of the second workshop, the single room they got married in has now been upgraded to a small second room.

Lin Shu followed the original owner's memory and found the door, 205 at the staircase.

Locking the door, Lin Shu was a little disappointed, and was about to find someone to help go to the workshop to ask.

At this time, the owner of 204 next door came out, a woman in her twenties, wearing a red plaid short-sleeved shirt, "Hey, isn't this Lin Xia's sister? Why are you here?" Lin

Shu: "Hello, sister-in-law, my sister is working overtime?"

Tong Ailian: "Yes, sister, let me ask you, is your husband back? Didn't he say he hasn't been home for several years?"

Lin Shu: "..."

You are more gossipy than me.

She said: "Then sister-in-law, you are busy, I will go find my sister."

Tong Ailian quickly caught up with her, "What are you busy with? Today is Sunday and I have a day off. Come on, I'll go with you to find her."

She took Lin Shu's arm without saying anything and looked at her carefully, "Wow, you are so beautiful, so beautiful. No wonder your sister always says her sister is beautiful."

Lin Shu tried hard but couldn't get the autonomy of her arm.

Tong Ailian: "Sister, how many children do you have?"

Lin Shu: "Two."

It's not like she doesn't know, why are you pretending?

"Hey, you're so young and you already have two kids? When will you bring them here to see us? Why don't you bring your kids here? Are you afraid we'll have to look after them?"

Lin Shu: "I'm thinking about my sister-in-law. You're so enthusiastic. If I bring my kids here, won't you have to provide meals? I'm afraid your family won't have enough to eat."

Tong Ailian: "What's there to be afraid of? Just bring the kids here. My sister-in-law can take care of them."

Anyway, you didn't bring them here, so it's just a joke.

Lin Shu finally pulled her arm out.

Tong Ailian: "Sister, I'm telling you, don't tell anyone else. Your sister hasn't gotten pregnant yet, and that old woman got mad and made all these messed up remedies for your sister to try. When your sister refused, she cursed at people behind her back. I heard it with my own ears..."

Lin Shu pushed her hard, "Sister-in-law, please go and call my sister." Tong Ailian

immediately ran to the workshop in a mysterious manner, and as soon as she entered Lin Xia's office area, she shouted, "Lin Xia, Lin Xia, I'm telling you, your beautiful sister who is like a fairy is here again!"

Lin Xia had just put down her tool kit after coming back from checking the lines. When she heard her sister coming over, she didn't mind Dong Ailing's shouting, and immediately took off her stained gloves, and took out a pair of new gloves that she was reluctant to wear from the cupboard and put them in her pocket.

She grabbed Tong Ailian's shoulders and said, "Come on, stop yelling. If someone doesn't know, they'd think your house is on fire."

She pushed Tong Ailian out and said, "My sister is here. I have to cook a good meal for her. Go to the cafeteria and buy me half a catty of meat."

Tong Ailian worked in the cafeteria.

She stuffed money into Tong Ailian's pocket to buy half a catty of meat and pushed her toward the cafeteria.

Tong Ailian: "Hey, I'm off duty today."

Lin Xia: "You can go buy meat if you're off duty."

Lin Xia ran out quickly and saw Lin Shu standing there as soon as she left the workshop.

Ah, no wonder her father and brother said that her third sister had changed a lot. She thought they were kidding her, but now she really was... two different people. The father and

son told Lin Xia about Lin Shu's return to her parents' home to sew a loom and Lin Yue's divorce.

Lin Xia also said that the divorce was a good thing.

"Second sister." Lin Shu stepped forward and took Lin Xia's hand affectionately.

Although this was the first time she and the second sister of the original owner actually met, she didn't know why, she felt very close to her, just like her own sister.

In her previous life, she didn't have any sisters and wanted a sister very much.

Unexpectedly, this wish came true after traveling through the book, which was great.

The two sisters met and said a few words of missing each other.

Lin Xia: "Third sister, why are you here?"

Lin Shu: "Our mother is not feeling well. I thought you were all in the city, so I brought her here for a checkup and a few days of injections."

The second sister immediately became serious, "Is it because that bastard Sun Xiaohong went to make trouble again and made our mother angry?"

Although Lin's mother favored boys over girls and always favored her younger brother when she was young, she never beat or scolded her three daughters, nor did she treat them badly in terms of food and clothing, but she didn't care that much about her son.

She was also a person who didn't want to be taken advantage of. When she saw that her mother treated her younger brother better, she would always argue with her. Therefore, although the mother and daughter always argued with each other, their relationship was good.

Lin Shu nodded, "That's for sure."

The second sister sneered, "She saw that there was no one in our Lin family, and she wanted me to deal with her when I went back."

Lin Shu asked her if she had any important work today and if she could go out and take her to see Lin's mother.

Lin Xia: "Wait a minute, I'll ask Tong Ailian to buy me some meat."

Lin Shu whispered, "Sister, isn't this person a little..."

Lin Xia did not hold back her voice, "Yes, she is sick. Sometimes she has red eyes and sometimes she is talkative."

Tong Ailian happened to come back with a piece of meat. When she heard it, she stomped her feet and cursed, "You are so good, Lin Xia. I'm buying meat for you, and you said bad things about me to your sister."

Lin Xia snatched the meat and snorted, "Didn't I give you money? Didn't I install wires and light bulbs in your house? Are you gossiping to my sister again that I'm not pregnant?"

Tong Ailian thought she was right, but now she immediately felt guilty, "I remembered that my mother is looking for me."

She turned and ran away.

Lin Xia took Lin Shu's arm in hand and went home, "We can take the meat over after it's cooked."

When the two sisters got home, Lin Xia opened the door and handed Lin Shu a new pair of gloves, "For you to wear when working."

Lin Shu accepted them, "Thank you, sister."

Lin Xia: "Look at your sweet mouth."

After entering the house, Lin Xia saw that there was no one outside, so she closed the door anyway and whispered to Lin Shu about Lu Shaotang, "Did your parents-in-law give you a hard time?"

Lin Shu: "No, they treat me even better."

Lin Xia breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good, you gave them a pair of such good children, they should treat you well."

Lin Xia washed her hands and chopped the meat quickly, then found a few wrinkled potatoes for Lin Shu to peel, and she took the beehive coal stove to the corridor to light a fire.

She went to the neighbor's house downstairs, where there was a stove burning, and exchanged a red coal ball for a fire, so that she could cook directly.

She put the meat directly into the double-handled iron pot and stir-fried it. When the fat was fried out, she added soy sauce, two star anises, and two pieces of scallions that were not to be eaten, and then added water to simmer. She

put the stove at the door, and asked Lin Shu to watch it while she went into the house to look for things.

Lin Xia usually helped her third sister.

She was an employee of the steel mill and wore work clothes every day. She was reluctant to make new clothes. Except for the one she wore during the New Year, most of the other cloth coupons were used to help her sisters.

She also took the old work clothes that men didn't wear back to give to her father and brother to wear when they worked.

In addition, she also saved a lot of food coupons and other things at home to buy candy coupons and candies for Panpan and Tiantian.

Seeing Lin Xia busy in and out, Lin Shu felt a little distressed. What happened to such a good second sister?

Didn't her brother-in-law love her very much? Didn't the couple have a very good relationship?

How did she get breast cancer?

She heard that breast cancer is mostly an emotional illness, an internal injury caused by anger that can't be expressed.

The book mentioned the limited plot of the second sister and said that the second sister can't have children, but her husband has always loved her and helped her to resist her mother's urging to have children. She said that she didn't want it and wanted to be fashionable and be a DINK so that she wouldn't have to worry about her children in the future.

The second sister got sick. Did the second brother-in-law change his mind later?

No matter what a man says at the beginning, he will definitely mind not having children in the end, right?

However, the book only said that the second sister can't have children, and didn't mention the second brother-in-law's situation.

Now that she is here, I have to find a way to persuade my second sister to bring her second brother-in-law to check it out.
