Chapter 214 Adding insult to injury
Jia Zhang was also lying on the kang in the back room without getting up. She would smell the strong smell of meat and couldn't lie down anymore.
I quickly got up and couldn't help but stir in the pot several times. I smelled the alluring fragrance and felt comfortable all over my body.
"His wife, how long do you have to stew it for?"
"This has to be stewed over low heat. It is said that the longer it is, the more nutritious it will be. The longer it stews, the better I will cook."
< br>Jia Dongxu actually woke up too, and was awakened by the smell of soup, but he just didn't want to open his eyes.
"Xiao Dang, don't go there, be careful of getting burned."
Xiao Dang was almost forgotten, and then he came out from nowhere and was circling around the soup can.
Jia Zhang picked up Xiaodang and patted his butt.
"Little girl, you have been so greedy for movies since you were a child. This is for your father's health. Watch whatever you want and go play on the kang by yourself."
Seeing that it was getting late, Qin Huairu scooped up the soaked shredded dried beans, added some cabbage leaves to the bone soup, simply fried some shredded dried beans and pork, heated up a few steamed buns and started the meal.
Jia Dongxu has not had much appetite since he came back. Today he smelled better. With Qin Huairu's help, he sat down reluctantly and ate some, but he still had no appetite. In the end, bone soup was more suitable.
“This soup is okay. It’s salty and has a bit of a taste. I can’t taste the rest.”
“My son, drink more soup,” the old man said. , all the nutrients are in the soup until the end. You drink more of this soup, and I will just chew the tasteless bones to satisfy my craving."
Jia Dongxu ate some of the meat removed from the bones and drank. After eating several bowls of soup and sweating all over, Qin Huairu had to let him lie down and wipe him with hot water before returning to the dining table.
Half of a bare bone was thrown on the table, and the other half was in Jia Zhang's mouth. Xiaodang looked at it eagerly, and Qin Huairu felt annoyed again.
My chest seemed to be blocked by stones, and I was very suffocated. I couldn't help but cover my chest and close my eyes. Only Xiaodang saw tears flowing from the corners of her mother's eyes.
It took me a long time to open my eyes, and I saw my mother-in-law fishing out the minced meat in the soup. I couldn't help but say something.
"Mom, just keep the soup in this soup for Banggan, and he will have some when he comes back in the afternoon."
Jia Zhang said while salvaging.
"There's nothing left in it, so why not leave it? Didn't you just make one? Just leave the other one for him after you make it."
Qin Huairu looked at her mother-in-law's plump face. It's strange that in such a difficult day, he has lost weight so shamelessly, and then he thinks of what Silly Zhu said at the uncle's house, and he can't help but have mixed feelings in his heart.
Put some cabbage leaves in a small bowl. The cabbage leaves cooked in bone soup taste really good. The small rice tastes delicious with the soup and cabbage.
In the afternoon, Jia Dongxu's condition seemed to get worse all of a sudden. He started complaining about chest tightness and shortness of breath, started coughing non-stop, and then started vomiting directly, vomiting all the things he had eaten at noon, which made Jia Zhang feel distressed. Incessantly.
Qin Huairu was also busy and hesitant, and after finally finishing all the work, he hit his sore waist with his hands, looked up and saw that his mother-in-law had climbed onto the kang at some point, and was sleeping soundly.
Only the ignorant Xiao Dang was cleaning the glass with a snowball and playing with it. The child was still young and didn't know what it meant that his father was paralyzed on the bed. Now he was playing by himself after eating.
Qin Huairu sat blankly in front of the kang, looking stupidly at the man who was about to die soon. He had no one to tell his countless grievances, and could only still have tears slowly covering his face.
"Mom, why are you crying?"
The ignorant Xiao Dang couldn't help but ask when he saw his mother's face full of tears. The room was quiet except for Jia Dongxu's occasional cough.
Qin Huairu gently held her daughter in her arms, wiped her face, and put her wet face against her daughter's face.
"Mom is not crying, she is happy. I haven't eaten meat for a long time. I am happy today. My daughter, are you happy?"
Xiao Dang nodded, his little eyes shining.
“Today there are broth and cabbage, as well as some beans and shredded pork. Mom’s cooking is the most delicious, but it’s a pity that my brother didn’t eat it.”
“My dear girl, you come too. The kang will warm you up for a while and have a good sleep."
...Jia Dongxu fell asleep after struggling for a long time. His face looked even worse and his face seemed to be swollen again. Qin Huairu, who was sitting in front of the kang, looked a little flustered. , hurriedly went to find Jia Zhang.
"Mom, Dongxu has become heavier. We have to send him to the hospital."
Jia Zhang turned over, pulled the quilt, and used her body Press it down, close your eyes, and turn your back to Qin Huairu.
“I’ve already slept, don’t worry about it. If you go out in this kind of weather, a minor illness will turn into a serious one.”
…
At night, Jia Zhang's cries were heard again in Jia's house in the middle courtyard, and Qin Huairu came out in a panic after a while.
The rooms in the courtyard lit up one by one, and many people gathered in the middle courtyard. They were all stirred up by Jia Zhang's movements.
"First Master, please save your apprentice, he will die just by looking at him."
Jia Zhang was really anxious now, and she would not let go of the First Master. The old man couldn't break free twice.
"Zhang Cuihua, let go of your hand and hold me, how can I help you!"
Jia Zhang finally let go in realization.
"What's going on? Why did it suddenly get worse and I'm peeing blood."
"Hurry, send me to the hospital quickly."
Everyone was at a loss what to do. Jia Dongxu was sent to the hospital. When the doctor saw it was Jia Dongxu, he knew the patient's condition, but why it deteriorated so quickly.
Jia Dongxu was quickly pushed away, Qin Huairu followed in, and the uncle was making arrangements outside.
"Zhuzi, take everyone to a warm place to rest for a while. The second uncle and I will go and ask about the situation first."
The first uncle arranged for several neighbors and went in with the second uncle to find Qin Huairu.
The doctor asked Qin Huairu about the patient's daily life these days, and understood the reason.
"You guys wait here, we'll take care of it, and then you can go back."
Looking at the confused eyes of the first uncle, the second uncle and Qin Huairu, they all seemed to be asking why not Hospitalization.
“Originally, if he wanted to delay his situation a little longer, he would have to eat light food with less salt, let alone pickled products. Now there is no way to save this situation, so we can only try to delay it for a few more days. Go back and make arrangements for the funeral as soon as possible."
After saying that, he turned around and went in to deal with it, leaving only the first uncle and Qin Huairu in a daze, and the second uncle didn't know what they were thinking.
It was like a thunder struck Qin Huairu's heart. Last time, the doctor said it could be delayed for a while, but now it can't be delayed. The child in the belly may not be able to see his father.
Pickled meat, damn marinated meat, I made it myself. Tears flowed down my face. Why is God so cruel to me? I have to be a widow at such a young age, and I have to take care of three children and a baby. The old Pixiu who only eats but doesn't poop.
The first man just shook his head. He had known that this day would not be long, but he did not expect that it would come so soon. There was nothing he could do about it, and he quickly supported Qin Huairu who was on the verge of falling.
"Daughter-in-law Dongxu, you can't fall down at this time. You still have a baby in your belly, and you have to control the family. Be strong, and everyone will help you get through it."
…
< br>Not long after, everyone dragged Jia Dongxu back. After being sent back to Jia's house, they all left. Only the first uncle stayed at Jia's house for a while and then left.
Silly Zhu also heard about the reason for the deterioration. Did he get into trouble again? This time he didn't even enter the door of Jia's house and just slipped home. If he was caught by Jia Zhang, he would probably Even if you don't die, you have to shed your skin. Why are you so cheap? You are causing trouble for yourself.
Seeing that her son was sent back so quickly, Jia Zhang’s wife still looked like she was on the verge of death, so she couldn’t help but ask.
"Why did his wife come back without being hospitalized for rescue?"
