Chapter 70 Section 70

At this time, Dong Jing's grandfather came out and greeted the old lady: "Oh, why didn't you ask someone to bring a message in advance before you come?" Dong Jing hurriedly changed the subject, took the old lady's hand and led it into the room, and said overly enthusiastically: "Yes. You can give me a message in advance so that we can prepare." Dong Jing's wife looked at her man strangely, but couldn't say anything.The old lady could see that Dong Jing's daughter-in-law also had something to say to her alone. Elderly woman asks old man about health.

The old man waved his hand and said: "We people, what is there to ask? If you take off your shoes to sleep tonight, you may not be able to wear them again tomorrow. Come, come, sit in the room. Dong Jing, go to the room Make tea. There was no water in the teapot last night. Don’t point at your daughter-in-law for everything. Your daughter-in-law has a big stomach and it’s inconvenient to do anything. What if it’s really a grandson this time.” Dong Jing and his daughter-in-law couldn't bear it anymore. The old lady smoothed things over and said: "Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. Just pay attention to your body."

The old man touched his forehead and said, "Oh, I almost forgot if you didn't tell me, I still have medicine to take. You sit down first, and I'll come to take some medicine." After speaking, the old man went into the back room. Dong Jing went to the back to make tea. Only the old lady and Dong Jing's wife were left in the main room. Dong Jing's daughter-in-law moved the chair next to the old lady and sat down, and asked timidly, "Grandma, I want to ask you something. Did you see it too, so you told Dong Jing secretly?" The old lady was a little surprised by her question, and asked back, "What did you see?"

Dong Jing's daughter-in-law nodded. The old lady asked: "Then tell me." Dong Jing's daughter-in-law said: "Tell me, have I been entangled by some evil thing? That's why I can't give birth to children, and I keep giving birth to those frogs?" "Evil?" The old lady carefully observed Dong Jing's daughter-in-law's every move, and found that she didn't seem to know that much.Because there is still a lot of hesitation in her eyes. "Let me tell you something first. I heard about it not long ago." Dong Jing's wife said. "Tell me." The old lady said.

"There is a stonemason in my natal family. His wife is almost forty years old and has suffered from a strange disease for many years. She said that when she was eighteen years old, she had a strange dream one night. She dreamed of a handsome The boy walked into her boudoir, claiming to be more than two thousand years older than her, and because of fate in the previous life, he came to propose to her in this life. She was in a daze in her dream, and she agreed without thinking much. So, they immediately met The wedding was held in her boudoir. After a while, many people entered the room. They seemed to be relatives and friends of the young man. She didn’t know each other. The young man introduced them to her one by one. This is uncle, this is aunt, this is aunt, This is uncle and so on. After the introduction, there was a lot of gongs and drums outside, and the people in the room began to set up a banquet for dinner, which was very lively.

"When I woke up the next day, the room was in a mess, and it was obvious that she was not the only one on the bed. She didn't dare to tell the outside, and cleaned up the room secretly by herself. But since that time, the boy has come every night, wanting to be with her Have fun and bring lots of delicious fruit and treats she's never seen before. "After a long time, her parents also discovered the anomaly and found out about her. Her parents were worried and knew that the person who came was not a kind person, so they decided to matchmaking for their daughter to get married, hoping that this would cut them off. After all, if her husband lies in bed at night Next to him, the boy would have no chance to harass him. But how could that boy be so easy to deal with?

"Since she married the mason, the mason couldn't get close to her at night. If the mason approached her forcefully, she would tear and scold him involuntarily, and often beat the mason until his head was bleeding. Mason used to be considered a relatively good profession. , every family needs to invite masons to come to the house to make millstones and stone piers. I usually give them to the masons when they are reluctant to eat. At this time, I give them to the masons. Occupation has become more and more lonely as time goes by. In the past, stonemasons could pick matchmakers, but now stonemasons kneel down to beg matchmakers.

"That's why the stonemason accepted her. He had heard of her strange things long ago. "Fortunately, apart from the two being unable to consummate the house, everything else is fine. She can also help with housework and take care of the elderly during the day. At night, she starts to be confused, although her husband is lying next to him and cannot touch him. She, but she made an ambiguous voice, as if she was in love with someone. "The mason was ashamed and annoyed by the side, and he couldn't stop him. As soon as he stepped forward, there would be another fierce fight. After a long period of time, the mason's spirit was greatly stimulated, and his lower body gradually became weak. Therefore, after more than 20 years of marriage, they Haven't had a son yet.

"It's not that they didn't think of a way. The stonemason sought medical treatment everywhere, and her wife was also very anxious when she was awake. At first, the hospital arranged for her to be treated in the gynecology department, but it didn't work. Later, she was arranged for psychiatric treatment, but it was still in vain. After taking countless medicines, After numerous injections, the situation did not improve." The old lady asked, "Do you mean that you suspect that you have the same disease as hers?" Dong Jing's daughter-in-law shook her head and said, "Listen to me. Recently, a university professor who studied medicine came to the village and said that he came here for a free clinic. I heard that this old professor is very powerful and famous in China. So , The mason took his wife to go. At first he had the mentality of giving it a try, but the old professor said that he seemed to have seen a cure for this disease in an ancient book. The mason was very happy.

"The old professor was a man. He said that it was inconvenient for him to be treated, so he called the nurse around him and told him how to treat him. The stonemason was worried and begged the nurse to tell him what method. The nurse told him not to tell his wife. The stonemason agreed. The nurse said that the old professor told her that she only needed to take a little Zhulan grass root and stuff it into her lower body before going to bed at night, hoping to cure her troubles for many years. "After hearing this, the mason couldn't believe it, and asked, so many doctors have been unable to cure me for so many years, and a little weed root can cure my daughter-in-law? What's more, it is such a strange method! You know, pestering my daughter-in-law It is an evil creature with an age of more than 2,000 years. He once told my wife that he was more than 2,000 years older than my wife.

"The nurse persuaded that the old professor is not a teaser. Since he explained this, he has his reasons. Then, the nurse repeatedly asked the mason not to tell his wife about it. "The stonemason reluctantly agreed, and asked again, where can I find this kind of weed? The nurse smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about it, because there just happens to be this kind of Zhulan in the garden of the hospital. "The nurse secretly followed the method taught by the old professor. The stonemason was also tight-lipped. On the second day of hospitalization, the stonemason's wife told the stonemason that she dreamed that the man came again last night. "The mason was taken aback, and cursed, that smelly old professor really is making fun of people! "The stonemason's wife continued that the man in the dream did not approach her directly as before, but walked around her, sniffing her body again and again. "Before the mason's wife understood what was going on, the man cursed, I have been in love with you for many years, but you listened to the bad guys and wanted to kill me with poison! This is the end of my fate with you! After scolding , the man rushed out angrily and never came in again. "After that time, the man in the dream never came to harass her again. Later, the old professor prescribed some medicines for Mason's malaise. After taking it, Mason's health gradually improved. After many years of separation, Mason and his wife Live a real married life, and the relationship is getting better and better." The old lady asked: "Do you want to go to this old professor and come to treat you too?" Dong Jing's daughter-in-law sighed and said, "The old professor has already left here. It may not be easy to find him again. However, before leaving, the old professor said that what the stonemason's wife suffers from is actually a hallucination of a disease, which is caused by phlegm infatuation. Most people can't understand the manifestation of this disease, so they call this disease 'fox possession'. Because the phlegm is intoxicating, the stonemason's wife is delirious, and has the illusion that other men come to court." "Hallucinations?" The old lady didn't expect the old professor to explain it this way. "Yes. The old professor also said that Zhulan can dispel dampness, so it can dispel phlegm. After dissolving phlegm, it can relieve hallucinations. As for why it can dispel hallucinations, he doesn't know. He still needs to do further research." The old lady nodded half-understanding. Dong Jing's daughter-in-law moved the chair closer to the old lady, and asked in a low voice, "Tell me, do I have the same disease? Maybe I have too many hallucinations? That's why I got this strange disease of giving birth to frogs? Maybe I did something Give herbal medicine a try, maybe it will be as good as a stonemason's daughter-in-law." The old lady was silent. "You old man help me to ask other old people to see if anyone remembers the example of treating my disease written in ancient books." Dong Jing's daughter-in-law's eyes flickered, a little childish. "So that's what you mean..." The old lady said uncomfortably.The image of Zen Chu flashed through the old lady's mind. "Yes. I heard that a chicken farmer who lives next to you knows some alchemy, right? Why don't you ask that person first?" Dong Jing's daughter-in-law said timidly, for fear that the old lady would say " No" word. The old lady thought to herself that the stonemason's daughter-in-law was just dreaming, but she had never seen the person who hurt Dong Jing's daughter-in-law, but Dong Jing and the old lady had.People in Dong Jing's wife's hallucinations can't talk in front of others.Although Dong Jing's daughter-in-law was lucky, such luck must not exist. "You... don't want to?" Dong Jing's daughter-in-law asked cautiously when she saw that the old lady hadn't responded for a long time. At this moment, Dong Jing came out, holding the teapot emitting white smoke, and said with a smile, "I'm so sorry, I don't even have boiling water at home. I just boiled a pot of water." Seeing him coming out, Dong Jing's daughter-in-law hastily moved the chair farther away. The old lady whispered to Dong Jing's wife: "Okay, let me ask for you." Dong Jing served tea to the old lady and his daughter-in-law, and the three chatted nonchalantly, each with their own thoughts. Originally the old lady wanted to talk to Dong Jing alone, but at this time she had no excuse to dismiss Dong Jing's wife.And Dong Jing herself seems unwilling to talk about the things of Chanchu, and does not cooperate with the old lady. The old lady looked at Dong Jing's daughter-in-law's belly and asked, "How long is it before she is born?" Dong Jing's daughter-in-law pulled the corner of her mouth reluctantly, and said: "Based on the previous two times, it will take a month or two." The old lady turned her head to stare at Dong Jing and asked, "What will you do if you are born as a frog this time?" Dong Jing knew that the old lady was asking him, but he rubbed his hands and didn't speak. Dong Jing's daughter-in-law said: "If I'm still a frog, I'm ashamed to live. Besides, I can't bear it anymore. My body is not as good as it is once. Now I go back to my mother's house. I have to rest several times on the way. I find a stone to sit for a few minutes. Only then can I continue walking, otherwise I will be out of breath. If this is still the case this time, I might as well drink a bottle of Baicao and die." Perhaps this was the first time Dong Jing heard his daughter-in-law say such depressing words. He stood up anxiously, angry and comforting: "What are you talking about! You carry it a little longer, and wait until I earn enough money." I will stop doing business, and you will be fine by then." Dong Jing's daughter-in-law didn't know, and said, "Whether you make money in business or not, what does it have to do with my childbirth? But it's true, you only worry about your business, and you don't worry about me at all." The old man also came out and taught Dong Jing a lesson when he crossed the threshold: "That's right, you don't care about your wife too much. The biggest thing for a woman is to have children, and you still only care about business. Why do Taoists have to read one more thing when a woman dies?" "Blood Pen Jing"? It's because women have more blood pain than men, one is the pain of the body every month; the other is the pain of childbirth. This is the pain that you men can't understand."
