Chapter 424: Filial Piety

Chang Fengdie was going to beg politely not to fall to the ground, but she knew very well in her heart, but she couldn't speak, and she was so anxious that she screamed, so she heard her mother come and call her.

When she was groggy and in a trance, Chang Fengdie sighed and opened her eyes to see that she was still lying on the floor.

"Girl, wake up, are you guilty of a nightmare?"

Listening to her mother's question, Chang Fengdie calmed down, and secretly said that she had a dream of Nanke, only to feel dizzy, her body was lazy, she reluctantly turned over and sat up, rubbing her eyes while putting on her shoes and going to the ground.

Chang Shi said: "It's already late, I know that I sleep, the fire is delayed and extinguished, and the oil seller doesn't go to get oil." Aunt Jia is gone, and I don't know how to send it, which is good, the older it is, the more I don't have training. ”

Chang Fengdie, who said it after a few meals, became more and more sad in her heart, raised her hand to sort out her scattered hair, and said that she had a headache before she fell asleep, and got up to help cook.

After inviting Xu Hao over for dinner, Chang Fengdie felt lazy, unwilling to work, unwilling to move and unwilling to speak, so she lay in the house all day long, drowsy, as if she was sick for several days.

Chang saw that his daughter was too lazy to get up in the morning, and she was too lazy to do work at noon, so she couldn't stop nagging all day long, urging her to go out for activities and activities, so as not to cause tuberculosis.

Xu Hao guessed that it was probably because of the matchmaker's matter, so that the girl was discouraged and couldn't raise any interest, at this time Fujian Mu Hui and her sister came to the home letter, the letter mentioned that Hongye was pregnant, because Mu Hui was going to go to sea to fight at any time, the weather in Fujian was too hot, and Hongye had to take a boat back to Jinling to give birth.

Xu Hao was overjoyed in his heart and didn't dare to slack off, and immediately went out of the city to arrange for people to pick up the red leaves. Take care of a few things by the way. On the third day, Nie Yuji came to play with Feng Die, Feng Die hid her heart and didn't want to go, but the two of them had an unpleasant quarrel, Mrs. Nie and Chang Shi came outside, saw their daughter crying silently, and said angrily: "Qingtian and Bairi, what's wrong with you?" ”

Chang Fengdie hurriedly said: "It's nothing, it's just a pain in the eyes." ”

Suddenly, Chang Bin ran over and shouted: "My uncle-in-law vomited and diarrhea, it must be hot." ”

The whole family hurried over together, and saw Master Nie vomiting and vomiting in the house. I vomited all over the floor and smelled terrible. Mrs. Nie shouted, "Come and help me." ”

Chang agreed, and he didn't care about anything else, so he went in and helped Master Nie hard, and Mrs. Nie stood behind him and scraped his backbone with a thimble.

Tell the next person Liang's mother to go to the street to buy medicine. Chang Fengdie and Nie Huihui came in to help sweep the floor. Old Man Nie screamed and said that he had abdominal pain. Turned over and fell on the kang and rolled from side to side in pain.

When Liang's mother came back, she gave Master Nie a Liuheding medium heat medicine, but it still didn't work. It didn't work to feed him the red spirit pill again, and Mrs. Nie was so anxious that she told her son and Chang Lu to invite the doctor.

In the evening, a doctor was invited, and Chang gave a general description of the patient's situation and begged Lang Zhong to carefully diagnose the pulse.

Na Langzhong promised: "I don't need your advice, it's not my fault to get along with Master Nie, I can't come today." The wife of the prefect was also very sick, so I quit and didn't go, so I came to your house quickly. ”

got up and went into the room to check the pulse, Lang Zhong closed his eyes and nodded for a while, and frowned for a while, as if he was very careful. Master Nie screamed in pain, and at the same time gave him a hard time, and said weakly: "The eldest brother atones for his sins, but the younger brother can't get up." ”

Lang Zhong opened his eyes and said confidently: "It's okay! This is the summer season disease due to heat during the day and cold at night, one cold and one hot, and the cold and heat are condensed. ”

When he went to the outer room, he wrote the prescription and added the amount of medicinal herbs, and instructed: "Put down the screen window at night, and don't catch a cold." ”

Mrs. Nie promised one by one and asked Lang Zhong to say goodbye, and after bothering, Chang sent the carriage and horse fares, and Lang Zhong refused to accept it with a smile on his face, or Mrs. Nie waited again and again before accepting it and leaving.

The decoction and medicine at home were busy, and everyone never closed their eyes all night, thinking that a dose of medicine could be cured by feeding it, but after the rooster crowed, the condition became more and more dangerous, so anxious that Mrs. Nie didn't know what to do, so she sent Chang Bin Nie Yuji to ask for a doctor, and she was afraid that she had cholera, so she told Liang's mother to go out and invite an acupuncturist to come.

It should be the misfortune of the family, the acupuncture doctor invited was originally from selling fake medicines, and the previous Langzhong was not an experienced famous doctor.

After pricking the needle, Lang Zhong rushed to see that Master Nie had convulsions in his limbs, his hands and feet were cold, and he sighed that last night's prescription seemed to be wrong, the disease of cholera is always cold and cold, caused by external wind and cold, and the spleen and stomach on the human body play a digestive function, and the spleen and stomach cannot be digested, so the stomach vomits, the spleen collapses and diarrhea, and more than a dozen needles are punctured indiscriminately, and the qi has been greatly lost.

Lang Zhong sighed: "I'll open a prescription, eat it and see that it's good to give me a letter quickly, if it doesn't work, then immediately ask another master, so as not to delay." ”

Mrs. Nie was shocked when she heard this, and while wiping her tears, she sent the doctor out, and when she returned to the room, she saw that her husband was lying on the couch with his teeth tightly closed, his face was like white paper, and he called twice without answering.

The whole family was guarding the house, and Liang's mother bought the medicinal herbs back and decocted them in the kitchen, and when she came in, she couldn't see Mrs. Chang, so she asked, "When will Mrs. Dongyuan leave?" ”

Mrs. Nie realized that her sister was gone, so she was so anxious that she asked Fengdie to find it, and couldn't help complaining: "Everyone is dying here, but she is gone." ”

Chang Fengdie returned home and asked, "My uncle is no longer done, why don't you hurry over?" ”

Chang Shi sighed with a calm face and said nothing, Chang Fengdie was stunned, I don't know what her mother felt at this time, she had the heart to ask but didn't dare, so she had to wipe her tears and go out.

Chang snapped, slapped the table hard, and said angrily: "It's important that your uncle is sick." Your wife is sick and you don't know how to ask? ”

Chang Fengdie was startled, somehow turned around and knelt on the ground, and said sadly: "Mother, don't be angry, don't just scold me, in the hot weather, who will hurt us if our body is angry." ”

Chang stood up angrily and said, "It's not because of you, and I'm not angry." Such a big girl has no heart and no lungs, if I tell you, never go to my heart, can't the natural lewd seed go to the high platform? ”

slapped the table again, and Chang asked viciously, "What are you talking about with your jade brother?" You learn it to me. ”

Chang Fengdie didn't know where to start when she heard it. Frightened, his face turned earthy, and he said tremblingly: "When the doctor came, I served my uncle in the back room, and I didn't say anything. ”

Chang's snort, and his daughter's face was full of spit, "When you looked at the prescription, what did you say?" ”

Chang Fengdie thought for a long time and was puzzled, Chang Shi said angrily when he saw this: "You don't have to pretend to be confused, yesterday you told Yuji to force you to seek death, who forced you to seek death?" ”

Chang Fengdie knew it was bad. Yesterday, she suspected that her mother had agreed to Jia Matchmaker's proposal. Because Yuji didn't know it, he was anxious, and he couldn't help but say don't force me to die.

Chang Shi looked at his daughter's cheeks slightly red, and said in a snort: "Good girl, my old life." Sooner or later, you will die at your hands. My house is windy. Sooner or later, you will be defeated at your hands. ”

At this time, someone said that the master was no longer done. Chang didn't care about being angry with his daughter, so he hurriedly raised his feet and rushed over.

When he arrived in the West Courtyard, Master Nie was already exhausted. Mrs. Nie was caught off guard and just cried on her pillow, and Chang's mother and daughter also looked at the corpse and cried.

Liang's mother came in and persuaded: "You have to put on the shroud first, do you want the master to go naked?" ”

As if waking up the dreamer with a word, Mrs. Nie wiped away her tears and went to open the cabinet, and everyone chose a set of auspicious clothes, dressed them for Master Nie and parked them on the bench.

When the incident was over, the whole family cried again, and discussed how to handle the aftermath miserably. Although Mrs. Nie usually claims to be able to do things, it was her husband who died, and she has no idea at this moment. Chang's because he didn't close his eyes all night last night, and he was angry with his daughter, and after this change, he also looked confused.

Nie Yuji cried and knelt in front of his mother, asking for a way, but Chang Fengdie cried: "It's better to ask Xia Gongzi to help with the principal, find a few men to help, and send letters to relatives and friends first." ”

Mrs. Nie nodded in agreement, Nie Yuji was not happy, he was faintly jealous that his cousin and Xu Hao were too close, and the young scholar had a plan in his heart, so he simply pulled his cousin Chang Bin to make his own decisions.

At that moment, the two discussed carefully, saying that they would go to see the coffin first, and asked Feng Die to guard the two wives, not to be too sad in the hot weather, and to rush out of a hurry, Feng Die nodded and agreed to see that her mother was silent, and turned around to go to Zhang Luo's sour plum soup and food.

After a while, Chang stood up, said that his head was faint, and went back to the east courtyard alone.

Mrs. Nie looked at her husband's corpse, watched her sister leave, and when Feng Die came back, she said, "Look at your mother, I'm so anxious about something, she doesn't even hum." When your father died, I didn't do this, what do you mean by siblings? What is flesh and bones? It's chilling to see your mother's style. Then he cried loudly.

It was not persuaded by Feng Die, nor was it persuaded if she was not, and she couldn't figure out what suspicions the two sisters had committed, so they couldn't help but cry together, and Nie Huihui also cried. Outside, Liang's mother sent out the hired masters, burned the inverted paper, and heard the crying in the house, and couldn't help crying, but the whole family also cried, and I cried.

At this time, Xu Hao came back from outside the city, and the whole person was stunned, who would have thought that after only three days of leaving, Master Nie would leave? In the past, he was afraid that the medical conditions in ancient times were not good, and the treatment of his relatives would be delayed when they were sick, so he did everything possible to hire famous doctors, and also let Xiangyu and others study medicine, and established a relatively complete hospital pharmacy.

Xu Hao secretly sighed that he was not a medical professional, even if he was present, there was nothing he could do, at most he sent someone to invite a famous local doctor, and cholera was indeed a big killer in ancient times, and Master Nie was old and frail, I am afraid that even if the treatment is timely, it will not help.

At that moment, Xu Hao took the initiative to help take care of the funeral, he was too familiar with weddings and funerals, and soon commanded people to arrange the mourning hall in an orderly manner. Mrs. Nie in the house is sad for her husband, pity for the young children, and sad for her compatriots and sisters, and she is not as dedicated as outsiders in the guest house.

I thought that when the funeral was over, there would be no money in my hand, and only the mother and son would be left helpless in the future. Although the son has become a child, after all, he is a young scholar, and he can't take care of the whole family, so the more he cries, the more sad he becomes, and he can't persuade him to cry to death.

Feng Die is very important, knowing that her family relies on her uncle alone, and when her uncle dies, not only will her family lose her care, but if the two sisters lose harmony in the future, how can they live together? If they can't live together, the idea of getting married as soon as possible will inevitably be invalid.

She secretly said that my own family affairs are not a big deal, but my mother is old and needs someone to serve, and if she is hired by someone with another surname, she must not take care of the family at any time. And the brothers and brothers are all honest and well-behaved people, if he is allowed to keep the family business, he will be able to add Zude without worry, but the family's livelihood is difficult in every way, and it is by no means the shrewdness of the glorious gateway to entrepreneurship and prosperity, how is this good? So the more I thought about it, the more bitter it became, and I cried so much that I fell to the ground like a tearful child.

When he was crying inexplicably, the relatives and friends of the Nie family came to condolence when they heard the letter, Xu Hao was not inconvenient for the Nie family to come forward, so he had to let Liang's mother comfort Mrs. Nie and Chang Fengdie.

Suddenly, Chang Fengdie cried and held her breath, and everyone hurriedly helped her to sit down, some called it smoked with straw paper, some said that it was poured with white sugar water, Mrs. Nie covered her tears and came to persuade her, and even called the obedient baby for a while, Chang Fengdie gradually woke up, and cried out, and everyone was relieved.

The eldest uncle of the Nie family has been doing things for a long time, Mrs. Nie asked him to help take care of Xu Hao together, the eldest uncle glanced at Xu Hao, and directly called someone to find Nie Yuji and Chang Bin.

Since he was not trusted, Xu Hao didn't want to be involved in it, so he watched someone come to the bar house to build a shed. Soon, Mrs. Nie entrusted all matters to Uncle Nie De.

Nie Yuji saw the elders crying while kowtowing to his uncle, wiping his tears and saying, "Although my nephew has no money, I am willing to use all my father's inheritance for funeral." ”

Uncle De wiped away his tears and pulled him up, causing everyone else to cry, and the relatives of the Nie family persuaded Nie Yuji to keep some money with their livelihood afterwards. And Nie Yuji was devoted to filial piety to his father, crying: "My father raised me so big, with me doing small business, I can also support my mother, and I don't have to worry about my livelihood in the future at this time." ”

Xu Hao nodded secretly when he heard this, although it is not very desirable to have a grand funeral, but as a son of man, it is understandable that Chinese tradition is that filial piety is greater than heaven, and filial piety will never be wrong. (To be continued......)
