Chapter 59: Chen Liulang
He thinks that as a father, he works very hard and tries hard to earn more money. You must know that money is needed for men and women to get married, but he has no brains to study. He will get sleepy when he studies. He is really not the material for studying.
Later, I thought about farming, but I soon discovered that not only getting rich, but also whether I can have enough to eat is a problem because the tax rate is too high.
And he knew that the only backer was his sister's son, but his eldest nephew had just started to learn. At that time, as an uncle, he looked for information from various places to make his eldest nephew persist in studying.
First, he became a scholar, and then he took the exams for the Juren Examination, but failed again and again. It took a lot of time to transform from a young man to a middle-aged man before he became a Juren.
After his eldest nephew became an official, he once met his sister's family in the capital. People who have been hanging around outside for many years naturally know that his eldest nephew is just a seventh-grade official, and he usually just bluffs people.
, my brother-in-law’s official position is still too small.
Even officials have a strict hierarchy, and a seventh-grade official is really not good enough. On the contrary, it may lead to the eldest nephew being sued, and my sister has repeatedly warned him not to let him use the banner of his nephew.
Chen Liulang had already made some calculations. He naturally knew that it was impossible for a person without any background to annex a large amount of land and become a large landowner with thousands or tens of thousands of acres.
Anyone who dares to do this will have been eliminated long ago, because a person is useless only if he has money and no power to protect him. He is basically just a baby walking around holding a big gold ingot, which will attract many jackals, tigers and leopards.
What would he do if he couldn't succeed in farming? He couldn't become a businessman, because the descendants of people with business registration were not allowed to take the scientific examination. He felt that if he couldn't do it, it didn't mean that his children at home couldn't do it. If his son couldn't do it, he still had his grandson.
Over the years, he has received commissions as a person who is responsible for threading the needle, but he needs to follow the lead a lot of time, and he also sells some things on the way, which can be regarded as making extra money.
Although the money he earns every year is not too much, compared with those big businessmen, but compared with farming, the income is much better. Just to make money, he has been running around outside a lot, and rarely has the opportunity to return home.
Home.
This resulted in him not having much affection for the children at home. Some people might say that he was not very qualified as a father, but he had no choice but to stay at home and farm, and could not afford to raise so many children.
After his wife got married, in addition to taking good care of her children, she also had to spend a sum of money to support her mother's family. When he found out, he pretended not to know, because his wife was alone at home, and it would be better if her mother's family was there to protect her.
.
It's just that this costs more, and he has to work hard to earn money, and a person's energy is limited, and he really doesn't have much time to care about his children.
This also resulted in him not being very familiar with his children and grandchildren, because he didn't have much interaction with them. He was more like a tool man working outside, working hard to make money for his family.
Because he was not at home very much, and the old lady was not a fool, she could naturally see her sister-in-law's intentions. After seeing clearly, she didn't like her very much, so she was naturally too lazy to care about her life and death.
Later, after her sister-in-law died, her younger brother refused to remarry, and she didn't say anything, because the older nieces and nephews were still quite young and could take care of the family by themselves.
She could also see that these children didn't have much affection for her or their biological father. She had nothing to say about this. The affection between people was created by getting along, and she didn't have much affection for them.
At the beginning, they secretly laughed at their elder cousin for taking the imperial examination again and again, thinking that he would end up in vain and would be a poor scholar all his life.
But what I never expected was that after wasting many years, my eldest cousin actually became a fellow Jinshi. As the saying goes, he flew into the sky and was really promising. My aunt also became an official wife.
At that time, they who were cousins basically didn't dare to go to their cousins after they had offended others. In addition, the aunts kicked them out of their homes, and they couldn't even make amends.
Later, the subsequent generation was considered disconnected, but the relationship between Chen Liulang and his sister was not bad. Therefore, even though the children and grandchildren did not like their father very much, they still treated Chen Liulang more gently when he returned home to recuperate.
Chen Liulang, on the other hand, was a careless man. He always thought that he was a responsible father and did not notice that they were all fooling him. It was only after he got the alien hand syndrome that he discovered that his children and grandchildren did not care about his health at all.
It was precisely because of this illness that he woke up from the illusion of a filial son and a virtuous grandson. Although he had been desperate in his heart, he still had some illusions in his heart: it was not a trick.
Mrs. Qi, who was beside her, also suddenly realized. The two siblings looked at each other. Chen Liulang naturally knew that his sister was more familiar with the Taoist priest, so she should be easier to talk to.
He glanced at his sister with some caution in his eyes. The old lady naturally sensed the meaning and looked at Ling Xiao and said, "Then can this disease be cured?"
Ling Xiao spread his hands slightly and then said calmly: "I don't know. You must know that the brain is extremely fragile. If one thing is not good, many problems will occur. I can only say that I can try it, but it is difficult to say how it will work."
After hearing this, the old lady nodded. Some things cannot be changed by human power. In many cases, we can only do our best and obey fate. We are not yet sure what the use of our brains is, but we still know that it is very fragile.
The seventh old lady took a sad look at her brother, what should she do? If this was tantamount to sentencing her brother to death, he would probably have to be here forever.
Because they know this situation now, but others don't know it at all. Even this disease is not easy to explain. If word spreads, everyone will still think it is a trick, and it may still lead to attacks on their brothers.
It's hard to get away with a big label these days, especially now that ordinary people will attack you if someone instigates you. My younger brother is an old man.
Ling Xiao said: "In fact, the main reason for this disease is that his brain was hit with a stick, which caused his brain to be injured. There was something wrong with it, which caused errors in the message transmission process."
Naturally, she couldn't tell them anything more. This strange hand syndrome is mostly a sequelae of brain infection, stroke, or brain surgery.
The bottom line is that there is some problem with the connection between the left brain and the right brain of the brain, and the correct instructions cannot be transmitted. In addition to the above reasons, this symptom may also occur after being hit on the brain, but the probability is relatively rare (1)
.
She continued: "I can try to treat it, but I'm not sure how it will go. I still need to treat it slowly. Maybe it will get better, but there is no guarantee that it will get better."
The seventh lady almost cried after hearing this. She looked at her brother and saw that he had a dull look on his face and had not yet reacted, because this situation was really great.
After this experience, she felt a little desperate. She also felt that her brother was possessed by a trick, but her brother still had the ability to control his body. She ran around trying to make her brother better.
The knot in her heart that was waiting for Ling Xiao to explain that this was not the case suddenly disappeared. It would be great to have someone to treat her illness now. You must know that she had consulted the doctor before and he would not treat her illness at all. After hearing this, she said
There is something strange!
When my brother went to see a doctor, the doctor was so frightened that he left immediately. It is said that he became sick that night, which led to someone wanting to beat Chen Liulang to death.
In the eyes of the old lady, it is enough if he can be cured. The worst thing is that his brother will live in this house after he cannot be cured. Chen Liulang thought for a moment and nodded. It would be useless if he didn't nod.
After knowing that he was not possessed by a trickster, he had the idea of living. This thought made him feel relieved, and he suddenly felt very sleepy.
You must know that he has not had a good night's sleep since his body changed, because he was also afraid that he was really possessed by a ghost. Now it has been proven that he is sick and not a ghost at all. He can finally have a good sleep.
.
Thinking like this, he could no longer hold back, his eyelids dropped directly, and he snored and fell asleep. Siping was stunned for a moment, and after a while he laughed, because Chen Liulang hadn't fallen asleep like this for a long time.
It is a state of not sleeping but sleeping.
The old lady was stunned for a moment after seeing it. Siping whispered a few words in her ear, making her want to laugh, but she felt like crying. Ling Xiao pretended to feel her pulse, and then went out to prepare a prescription. Qi
The old lady stayed to see her brother.
Alas! Over the years, the two siblings have gradually lost contact with each other. After all, they each have their own families. She also went out with her son for a while, and Liu Lang mainly made money outside these years.
Her husband did not catch up with his son and became a fellow Jinshi, so apart from her children, her brother was the only person she was closest to. It was just that she was a bit unfamiliar after not seeing each other for many years, but she got better later.
Now most of the old lady's grandchildren are out of town, so the relationship with her as a grandmother is average. After all, they don't live in the same place, so how can they have too much affection.
Wei Ba, the only grandson who follows her, is the closest grandchild, but he will also grow up and have his own family. As a grandmother, she is more sensible and will not interfere too much in her children's lives.
And she couldn't create another career like Ling Xiao. She didn't need to keep an eye on the children every day. She was living a more leisurely life now, but she also felt that some time was too long. She wanted to do something to kill it.
time.
She had the time and energy to take care of her younger brother, and it was as if decades had passed by at once, allowing her to have her relatives by her side in the last moments of her life. This was great.
She also had the idea that others needed her. As for her brother's children, she didn't know what to say. Why did she treat her father like this?
She could understand their fear of Wei. She was actually a little scared in her heart. She was not afraid of her brother, but because she didn't know what kind of existence it was and how to deal with it. All she could do was try to help her brother.
Get rid of bad luck.
But they absolutely cannot stand what they did to their father. It was their father, not someone else. Why did they treat their biological father like this?
Siping was not as considerate as Siping, who took the sick Chen Liulang away as soon as she saw something bad. Siping did this better than her children, which made her feel that giving birth to those children was worse than raising a dog.
She did not say these thoughts in front of her brother, because Chen Liulang would also feel uncomfortable. She knew that her brother was not very good as a father and was not at home with his family most of the year.
But she still knew that her younger brother had been living very hard. Why did those children have enough money to get married? It was all because of his hard work. Otherwise, where would the money come from?
After receiving his brother, he found that he was trying hard to smile, even though he tried his best to make his smile look bright. But the old lady could tell that this smile was bitter. He was too lonely, and his children and grandchildren were all ready to plot against him.
This was the first time Mrs. Qi had seen her brother sleeping so soundly in this period of time. She stayed in this small village for a whole day and saw Chen Liulang starting to eat after a good sleep. She suddenly laughed and was very happy.
If you can eat and sleep, you will live a long time.
Afterwards, she took the people back to her place. After all, it was best not to let anyone know about this matter, because some things cannot be explained, and even if she explained it, she was afraid that others would not agree with it.
Ling Xiao stayed behind to figure out how to prescribe the medicine. She found that Chen Liulang still had some problems with his brain, so she decided to slowly activate blood circulation and remove blood stasis to see if there was any way to clear the injured part.
The main problem now is: the brain cells of mortal adults generally cannot increase after death, and if they decrease, they will not be reborn again, and this is related to this incident.
Ling Xiao suspected that Chen Liulang hit his head because the wooden stick hit the brain and caused the death of a large number of brain cells, which affected nerve transmission.
The thought of this possibility gave Ling Xiao a headache, because it is difficult to increase brain cells. After adulthood, the number of brain cells will only decrease, not increase. How can she make up for this?
Wait! In fact, it is not that there is no increase in brain cells. For example, brain cancer means an increase in brain cells, but because those cells are immature cells, this proliferation of cells is not only useless, but absorbs a lot of nutrients.
After pondering for a while, Ling Xiao began to look for the elixir she had refined before to see if she could help Chen Liulang. After searching for a while, she took out a pill and began to prepare for an opportunity to act.
She definitely planned to take it slow, fast in the early stage, but slowly in the later stage, because she really didn't want to wear the title of miracle doctor, which would make her life too painful and difficult to solve the problem.
