Chapter eight hundred and eighty eight premature birth
Seeing this watchtower made of moso bamboo means that we have reached the boundary of Hongjiazhai, but there are still more than ten miles of mountain road to go from where Hongjiazhai lives.
The road leading to Hongjiazhai is quite good. Lin Yuan asked: "Lao Hong, this should be a road built with funds from the local department, right?"
"Hey, what do you think? Let the people of Hongjiazhai pay for it, or hire someone else? This road was not only built by local departments, but also by a large amount of outside manpower. The Jasper Bamboo in Hongjiazhai
It’s very famous, and I hoped to boost industry through road construction, but who knows, it just won’t work.”
"I heard that the old people in Hongjiazhai said that jade bamboo is a sacred object and cannot be touched."
"There is such a saying, but it is not absolute. Sometimes, you really shouldn't talk about the people in your hometown, but it is a wise saying that unruly people come out of poor mountains and rivers. I am a person who has experienced it. The people in the village discussed it at that time and thought that once the development
If the resources of the villagers are gone, and the road is repaired, who will treat you as a meal? Just put it aside."
Lin Yuan felt a little thunderous. Not to mention, the people in Hongjiazhai were very strategic in this regard. As soon as the contract was signed, a large number of outsiders poured in, and the role of Hongjiazhai's manpower would be diluted.
Resources have been exchanged for money, there is a contract, there is no income without work, and the previous lazy life is gone forever.
It has to be said that from some long-term perspectives, the consciousness of mountain people is still limited and conservative. When Lin Yuan does charity, he is not afraid of how difficult the conditions are, but he is afraid of encountering such lazy people.
It can be said that no matter how much money you invest in this situation, it will be in vain if you are sad for the misfortune and angry for the failure.
Unknowingly, after walking for more than ten miles on the mountain road, after turning a corner, his eyes suddenly opened up. In the middle of the valley, a group of red-tiled houses with a strong modern atmosphere appeared in front of Lin Yuan.
Lin Yuan was startled at first, and then he understood that this should have been built by the local department. Although these red-tiled houses are not worth much outside, in this place, if they can get raw materials such as bricks and tiles, it is a big deal.
Expenditure. A lot of money must have been invested in building these red-tiled houses.
A young man wearing a large floral T-shirt came towards him. When he saw Lin Yuan and the two of them, he greeted Hong En and said, "Uncle En, why are you here again?"
"Hmph, you don't welcome me here, do you? Xiaotai, you said that you are a young man who is almost thirty, so you can't go out and find something serious to do? Every time I go to Hongjiazhai, there will be some sneaky things, but you are indispensable.
"Excuse me, tell me, when did you come back and didn't let the villagers complain?"
"Haha, Uncle En, there's nothing we can do about it. I've been weak since I was a child, and I lost my parents a long time ago. If you find me a wife, wouldn't I have something to do? I have no one to kiss or care for.
It hurts, just live like this, Uncle En, you don’t have to worry about me."
"Get out!" Hong En glared, and the boy realized what was going on and ran away like flying.
Hong En sighed: "Xiao Lin, look at this guy, his name is Hong Xuetai, his life experience is quite pitiful. Indeed, as he said, he lost his parents when he was a child, so he grew up eating the food of hundreds of families. But he has no one all day long.
Zheng Xing, apart from eating, he is just stealing and flirting with his eldest daughter-in-law and his young wife. It is simply hopeless."
Lin Yuan muttered: "Old Hong, I do think that this Mrs. Hong is really sick."
"Is he sick? He must be lazy! Hong Jiazhai is not just a boy, he is a girl. He has been practicing martial arts since he was a child. This kid is so good. He gets stomachache when he practices martial arts. When his parents were around, his father still disciplined him.
After his parents died, everyone took pity on him and left him alone. Look, he looks like a second-rate man. Even a blind daughter would not marry such a person. "
"Old Hong, I'm not joking. This Mrs. Hong is really sick. And it's a very serious condition."
"Forget it, Xiao Lin, we can't control this. I'm not hard-hearted. You said, even if such a person is sick, how can he be cured? For minor illnesses and disasters, you can still call on everyone to donate some money. But really
If I have a serious illness, who can come up with the money?"
Lin Yuan shook his head helplessly. As soon as he took a glance, he knew that this Hong Xuetai was seriously ill, and it was a serious illness that affected the stomach and intestines. If it was not treated in time and progressed, he would cough up blood and die.
Seeing that Hong Xuetai ran away without a trace, Lin Yuan could only give up.
Most of the people walking around Hongjiazhai were women. Occasionally there were a few men, all of whom were old, weak, sick or disabled. Hong En was very familiar with these people and had a good relationship with them. He greeted them warmly when they met.
Lin Yuan was quite surprised and asked: "Lao Hong, doesn't it say in Hongjiazhai that both men and women practice martial arts since childhood? Why do I look at all the old people with sick faces and poor health?
"
"There's nothing you can do about it. Aren't we all the same when we get older? It's true that practicing martial arts can strengthen your body, but no matter how much you practice, when you get older, you will have to face the day when God takes you away, and your health will naturally deteriorate.
"
Lin Yuan thought for a while and said: "No, people who practice martial arts cannot compete with the years, but their bodies do not just get worse. Unless they experience a serious illness or disaster, they will suddenly experience rapid aging.
situation, otherwise, such a situation would not occur. It's okay to say that one or two people have this situation, but if it happens to them all, it would be abnormal. Moreover, Hong Quan is an authentic internal martial art, not the kind of external martial arts that harms the body.
Practice kung fu horizontally.”
"Xiao Lin, this is like this. I have been working hard for this place for decades. At the beginning, I also wanted to change this place, but the people here, ahem... forget it, did you see that house in front of you? That is
The family of the patriarch Hong Lei here is a must-visit when we go to Hongjiazhai."
Hong En said as he led Lin Yuan into Hong Lei's home.
"Sister-in-law, is Brother Hong Lei at home?" Hong En entered the yard and shouted loudly.
"Hey, isn't this brother Hong En? Your brother Hong Lei is out, but counting the time, he should be back soon. Brother, come in and sit down."
When Lin Yuan saw the woman, he frowned. This was because the woman was already sixty years old. Her body looked strong, but it was a bit inconvenient to walk.
Judging from the fingers and wrists of this woman, she should be a martial arts practitioner. Judging from Lin Yuan's experience, this woman's martial arts should not be bad. Since she is so good at martial arts, how could her legs and feet be so weak?
Judging from her complexion, she must be suffering from cold syndrome. The key is that the climate here is subtropical, and the woman practices martial arts all year round. How could she have cold syndrome?
The woman's symptoms are very strange, and it's impossible to accurately judge just by looking at her breath. But if we just met, I can't say that you are sick, so I'll give you a look.
At this time, Hong En introduced Lin Yuan to the woman: "Sister-in-law Lei, this is Lin Yuan, the president of our nationally famous Xinyuan Charity Federation, who came to our Hongjiazhai to inspect."
Mrs. Lei was very enthusiastic and said with a smile: "It turns out to be President Lin. Please come into the house. The boss will be back soon. Please wait a moment."
Entering the house, Lin Yuan found that the furnishings in the house were completely different from what he saw outside.
From the street, this house is pretty passable, but there are many things in the house that Lin Yuan seems to have found familiar to his childhood, namely the very old household utensils he has seen at home since he was a child.
There was no tea at home, not even hot water, so Mrs. Lei poured a bowl of water for Lin Yuan to entertain the guests.
Seeing that Lin Yuan was a little embarrassed, Hong En smiled and said: "Sister-in-law Lei, don't be offended. Xiao Lin is from the city. Drinking cold water will make your stomach uncomfortable. She is quite easy-going, so don't pick on her."
Lei Sou was about to speak when he heard a bang, the door was knocked open, and Hong Xuetai barged in with a panicked expression.
"You bastard, are you rushing to reincarnate? Why are you in such a hurry?"
"Aunt, it's not good. My third sister-in-law was born prematurely and is almost dying. Go and have a look."
"What? The third daughter-in-law was born prematurely? She was only seven months old, right?" Mrs. Lei said as she walked out.
Lin Yuan said anxiously: "Sister-in-law Lei, take me with you. I'm a doctor. I might be able to help."
Mrs. Lei waved her hand and ran out with Hong Xuetai, followed closely by Lin Yuan and Hong En.
After a while, Mrs. Lei and Lin Yuan arrived at a house and saw a man in his thirties crying loudly at the door.
"San'er, don't cry. As long as I'm here, the sky won't fall."
Lin Yuan's expression suddenly changed and he said, "Hurry in, the patient is in danger."
Lei's sister-in-law looked troubled, because it was quite taboo for women to give birth in such a remote and remote place, especially for men. If they took Lin Yuan in, they would probably be in a lot of trouble.
Lin Yuan said anxiously: "Sister-in-law Lei, it's too late. The severe pain of a woman giving birth is not something ordinary people can bear. Even if she has no strength, she will still make a heavy breathing sound. Now that the sound has disappeared, I am afraid that the mother will
Life is at stake."
Hong En also said: "Sister-in-law Lei, it's important to save people, take Xiao Lin in quickly."
Unexpectedly, San'er suddenly jumped up and stopped Lin Yuan: "You kid, what do you want to do? My wife is giving birth to a baby, what are you doing as a grown man? If you see a woman giving birth, you will be stoned to death.
of."
Seeing this, Hong En stepped forward and pulled San'er aside, and slapped him in the face: "You melon, I want to save your wife, but you still want to repay kindness with revenge? Get out of here, if you dare to act nonsense again, be careful."
I'll break your legs!"
Hong En still has a high prestige among the villagers in Hongjiazhai. San'er covered her face and did not dare to speak any more.
Lin Yuan followed Mrs. Lei into the room and found that the mother's condition was far more serious than he thought.
The mother's face was pale and without any blood. Lin Yuan took a pulse and found that the mother's pulse was almost undetectable.
"The child can no longer be saved. Let's ask the family if we can do our best to protect him." Lin Yuan said, taking out the silver needle from his body.
Mrs. Lei didn't dare to neglect, and quickly shouted outside: "San'er, the doctor said that the child can no longer be saved, and now he is doing his best to protect me. Do you think it's okay?"
