: Fighting the Wire

Li Jiancheng is familiar with the role of masks, especially the global infectious disease epidemic in 2002, which once made masks sell out.

But Li Jiancheng couldn't say this, so he said with a smile:

"Mom, there is a saying that there is no road in the world, and when there are too many people walking, it becomes a road. I wonder if you agree with this."

This is a famous quote written by the writer Mr. Lu Xun, the founder of modern Chinese literature, in his article "Hometown".

It can be remembered by everyone and circulated, so it naturally has its charm and truth.

Even if it was obtained from the Sui and Tang dynasties more than a thousand years ago, it was very convincing.

Dou Hui was touched when she heard what Li Jiancheng said. It sounded very straightforward and simple, but it made people think deeply.

Seeing something flashing across Dou Hui's face, Li Jiancheng immediately said, "Mom, we haven't tried this mask yet. When you make it, you'll see it. It's not too late to decide."

Dou Hui thought that even if he tried it, it would be harmless. What if it was useful, he nodded and said, "That's true, let Aunt Gu go and find you. What do you want to do to tell her."

When Li Xuanba heard this, he said anxiously: "Mom, let me tell you now, I want to know." When he spoke, he first looked at Dou Hui, and then at Li Jiancheng.

Before Li Jiancheng could speak, Dou Hui said first: "What's the hurry? Even if it's done, you have to let others try it before you can use it."

Li Jiancheng immediately said: "Mom, my third brother is in good health. As long as he exercises, he will only get better and better."

Dou Hui hesitated for a moment, looked at Li Jiancheng with a flash, looked at him deeply, and said, "This is right, but you should also pay attention." He expressed his thoughts in a tactful way.

Li Xuanba was already sensitive, but he still felt the difference between his mother and his elder brother, and immediately said, "Mom, I will pay attention."

Li Jiancheng changed the topic with a smile when he heard this: "Third brother, wait until the mask is made, and I will show you the first time. Your current task is to have a good rest and get rid of the disease as soon as possible. Well, today's story has been told, so I will go back first."

After saying this, Li Jiancheng began to wear shoes. Taking advantage of the opportunity to bow his head, he also pulled Dou Hui's clothes.

Dou Hui knew that Li Jiancheng had something to say. She originally wanted to ask Li Jiancheng why he used his health to encourage Li Xuanba just now, so she touched Li Xuanba's head and said, "It seems that there will be no more high fever tonight. Go to bed quickly, you will get better faster."

After saying that, he watched Li Xuanba lie down, cover him with a quilt, then put on his shoes, and stayed at the bed.

Li Jiancheng had already put on his cloak at this time and was talking to Lu Liu outside, reminding her to take care of Li Xuanba's precautions. When he saw Dou Hui coming out, he said:

"Mom, you didn't sleep well yesterday. I see that the temperature of my third brother is no longer high. You should go back and have a good rest today and don't get tired of yourself."

Dou Hui nodded. He didn't sleep well last night and had to deal with family affairs during the day. He just took a nap at noon for less than half an hour. He was very tired from busy daytime.

In the evening, Li Xuanba had a fever. She was worried that he would be hot at night and didn't care about her. Now that Li Xuanba was fine, she felt relieved and tired.

So she nodded and said to Qingzhi, the maid who was serving her, "You can stay here tonight, so you can take a nap with Lu Liu. But if there is any situation, I will go back and forth to me immediately."

Qingzhi responded, waited for Dou Hui to put on the cloak, and said, "Madam, it's night outside. I'll go back with you with lanterns and come back later."

Li Jiancheng immediately said to Qingzhi: "You don't have to make trouble, I'll just send my mother back." After that, he stepped forward and held Dou Hui's arm, and smiled and said, "Mom, let's go."

Li Xi had already nimbled the lanterns at this time, and the marquis was outside the door.

After seeing Li Jiancheng helping Dou Hui out, he took a step forward and looked at the road ahead.

After taking a few steps, Dou Hui asked Li Jian: "What do you have to say to me?"

"Mom, don't you want to ask me why I say that my third brother is in good health?" Li Jiancheng asked back.

"I originally wanted to go back and talk about this with you. Now when you talk about it, let's talk. Since you know that Saburo is in poor health, why do you have to speak like that?" Dou Hui had no intention of blame, but was the tone of just talking about the matter.

"Mom, if I don't say it, you probably won't be able to sleep well. As soon as I told you to go back and rest, you agreed. Didn't you just want to know the reason for my wish to do this?!" Li Jiancheng said with a smile.

Dou Hui's eyes flashed with a smile, and he raised his hand and pointed at Li Jiancheng's forehead and said, "How much do you know... Okay, what else can we play against?"

Speaking of this, her voice became gloomy: "Sanlang was brought out of his womb with weakness. It was my mother who was sorry for him and did not give birth to him as healthy as you."

Upon hearing this, Li Jiancheng instantly understood why Dou Hui lost her usual transparency when dealing with Li Xuanba. It turned out that it was because of this deep guilt.

Li Jiancheng knew from obsession that Li Xuanba was drizzled when he was sixteen years old when he came back to worship Buddha, and his life was taken by the lobular pneumonia caused by fever.

When Li Jiancheng heard about this, he felt that Li Xuanba's body was weaker than Lin Daiyu, and he fell down when the wind blew. Otherwise, how could he be sick with an umbrella and by the rain?

When he saw Li Xuanba, although he felt that his body was weaker, he was not as bad as he thought.

When he knew that Dou Hui would not let Li Xuanba go out in winter, he had his own speculation and knew that Li Xuanba's body was so bad that it was because he stayed in the house in winter. After years of vicious cycle, his already weak body became even weaker.

Actually, it’s not a big deal about Dou Hui. Isn’t there no mask at this time?

Li Jiancheng's words cannot be said to Dou Hui, which is too heartbreaking, so he said, "Mom, what would happen if a person in good health was suddenly told that he had a terminal illness one day?"

Dou Hui's eyes flashed, and after a few breaths, he nodded and said, "I understand what you mean, this is not to increase the psychological burden on Saburo."

When Li Jiancheng saw Dou Hui understand, he said again: "Mom, believe me, my third brother's health will get better and better; when I look back, I will go to Dr. Liu's house. After reading their medical books, I will discuss a better treatment plan with Dr. Liu."

Dou Hui looked at Li Jiancheng with a confident look on his face, nodded and said, "You just do this in secret, don't let your grandmother know."

Even if the housekeeper Dou Hui was still there, she didn't know what Li Jiancheng and Dugu's grandmother said in the house. After all, she couldn't stretch her hands into her mother-in-law's house. (To be continued)
