Chapter 8 Eight

We've all picked up her catchphrases: call a cow a damn, go swimming and play, and she'll say: Hey, that sucks.Or simply say: Fuck.She has an excellent memory and is a quick reader.Sometimes she discusses with us some issues related to the philosophy of art.I found that she thought deeply about the problem and her opinions were tenable.She loves art."One day I'll get my insights sorted," she said. Too bad she didn't have time to do it.she is sick. One day at noon, we were reading in the house and watched her cover her face with the book.We thought she was asleep, so we tiptoed out.After half an hour, the work whistle blew and we came back.She lifted the book from her face, and I noticed that her face was not pretty, and there was no sleepiness in her eyes.I asked her: "Xiaohong, what's the matter with you? You look bad."

She said: "I suddenly felt dizzy when I watched it, and felt a little cold at the back of my head. Probably because I haven't slept less these days." I said: "Then you don't want to go, you can rest for half a day." She said: "Okay", and let me talk to the team leader.When we came back in the afternoon, we saw her happily sitting in the corridor washing our clothes, and said, "Go inside and have a look." We went into the house and saw that she had changed the layout of the house, found out all our worn-out shoes and socks, washed and repaired all usable ones.The room was also surprisingly clean.She followed in quietly, and said cheerfully like a child: "Did I do a good job?"

I said, "Great! Did you sleep yet?" "Slept for an hour. Then I got up and went to work," she said with a smile. Da Xu said: "You should sleep more, it will be much faster when we get back together! Are you alright?" She said, "I'm all right. I'm going to work. I'm a working woman." We thought the word "working woman" was very funny, so we laughed for a long time, and we sometimes called her working woman in the future.But that night she was not feeling well, saying that she had "dizziness and headache".When I asked her, it turned out that this problem has existed for a long time, but it is rarely committed.So we called her to see a doctor.We went to the hospital with her on Sunday. The doctor looked at her for a long time and couldn’t come up with anything. He gave her a bottle of oryzanol and said, “This medicine is good. It can strengthen the brain and cure all diseases!” We bought it After getting some things back, she walked to the edge of the big river. She was very happy when she saw the river, and said, "Let's go through it!" I said, "You got it! Take good care of it!" She laughed.So we walked across the bridge.That bridge was made of bamboo boards on wooden piles, and there was a "squeak" sound when walking and dying. The river under the bridge violently hit the bridge piles, and the splashed water sometimes hit the bridge.I walked in front, she was in the middle, and she said with a smile as she walked, "I need to take care of it, I have to take care of it. The water is so urgent..." Suddenly she stopped and said, "Xiao Wang, you go Slow down!" I stopped.She took a few steps awkwardly, and grabbed the clothes on my shoulders so tightly that I felt her hands shaking.I felt bad, so I quickly turned around and helped her up.I saw her eyes closed, the expression on her face was pain and panic.I was terrified, and said to her: "What's wrong with you! Are you dizzy? Open your eyes and look into the distance!" If you walk on a rapid bridge or wade in fast water, if you stare at the bottom The waves sometimes get dizzy, and you feel like you are slowly falling into the water.The bridge is very narrow, and there are no handrails on the bridge. Sometimes people on the bridge can be seen lying down and crawling over the bridge.I also fainted once when I first came, so I asked her if she was watersick.At this time, Da Xu also came up from behind, we both supported her, she was trembling like a leaf, she said: "I have a headache, I can't see at all... Take me away from this bridge quickly, I Scared! I'm afraid..." She shed tears.We quickly lifted her up, and she put her head in her hands and began to cry.After we crossed the river, we put her down, and she lay on the grass, hugging her head and weeping softly, "I have a terrible headache. When I crossed the river just now, my eyes suddenly became blurred, and my eyes became a big white mist, and then Just a headache... Take me home quickly, I’m scared here, I’m flustered.”

I quickly picked her up and ran home. She held her head all the way, and sometimes she hugged me tightly and pressed her head against my chest. She was not only in pain, but also frightened.We were horrified to see her wrestle with pain and fear.On the way, Da Xu replaced me. As soon as she realized the change, she cried out in panic: "Who are you? Just say a word." Da Xu said, "It's me, Xiao Hong, it's me." She let it go heart, and put his head on Da Xu's chest. We rushed home, put her on the bed, and I ran out to find the hygienist.As soon as I opened the door, she yelled in panic: "Don't you all go away!" Da Xu said, "I'm here, I'm here." He held her hand, and she calmed down.

I called the hygienist, and she didn't ask what the disease was, just gave her a painkiller injection, and Xiaohong felt less pain after a while.Then she fell asleep.We sent her food, but we had nothing to eat ourselves.It was getting dark soon.We put up the mosquito net for her, and lit a kerosene lamp on the window.We were afraid that the air would be too bad, so we opened all the front and rear windows.Da Xu and I curled up on the bed, neither of us slept.What a miserable night it was!Neither of us spoke.There are often dark shadows shaking in front of the window, and I don't care about it.It was later learned that the girl who lived with Xing Hong found that she hadn't gone back to sleep, so she quietly called a few people to prepare to catch her.They were going to rush in as soon as the lights went out, but they didn't dare to come because the lights didn't go out.Thank goodness they didn't come, if they broke in, it's hard to imagine what Da Xu and I would do.We put a butcher knife on the windowsill that we usually use to kill chickens and chop vegetables, and we will definitely remember to use it at that time.If something like this happened, the consequences would be unimaginable to everyone.

When it was almost dawn, Xiaohong woke up.She said under the mosquito net, "Xiao Wang, Da Xu, are you still awake?" We walked over to her and asked, "Are you feeling better?" She smiled and said, "Better? I'm almost fine. I'm going back to sleep." We said, "Don't go, just sleep here, it will be dawn soon. What's wrong with you?" She said, "Hey, when I was crossing the river, I got a sudden pain in my head. I guess it's a kind of neurological problem. It's nothing serious, don't be afraid!" I didn't believe it, so I said, "I'm afraid it's not as light as you said. You said you were afraid, so what's the matter?"

She didn't speak for a long time, and then said: "When I have a headache, I feel very flustered, and I don't know why." She smiled embarrassedly, and then said: "I have a bad feeling...don't say it, don't say it La!" I said, "Why not? You may be very ill. Tell us, what's going on?" She went on to say, her voice became melancholy: "The pain I feel doesn't come from the outside, but from the inside. Maybe it's hereditary? Don't scare me, I'm scared enough by myself! " We fell silent.Later, Da Xu said: "You should go to see a doctor, and try to go outside to see it. You must find out the root cause of the disease, you must."
