Ah Jiu's jaw suddenly dropped and she looked at Wang without blinking.

"Sister Ajiu, you are here, come in and sit down."

It wasn't until the little girl grabbed Ah Jiu's arm that she came back to her senses.

With heavy footsteps, he let the girl drag him into the main room.

A dark atmosphere rushed towards me, and I realized that all the doors and windows in my home were sealed tightly.

"Sister Ajiu, please sit down." The little girl brought a stool and wiped it with her sleeve.

Ah Jiu looked at the furnishings of this room, and there was only one word: poor. It was even more dilapidated than her home in Xinghua Village.

But there are quite a lot of iron items at home, even the chair legs are made of iron.

The little girl stood straight in front of Ah Jiu with her head lowered: "There is no food at home, no water, and nothing to entertain Sister Jiu'er."

Ah Jiuyi's heart ached when she heard this. What a sensible girl: "It doesn't matter, no one has much water at this time."

"It rained a while ago, and I...I picked up some, but they were all used to clean my grandma's body."

"Wipe yourself, you are very filial, sister, I gave you a good thing, you can't tell others."

Ah Jiu couldn't help but took out a pomegranate from the space.

When the little girl looked at the round pomegranate, her eyes were filled with light. Unexpectedly, she turned around and ran into the side room:

"Aniang, Aniang, Sister Jiu'er gave me a pomegranate. I'll peel it for you to eat, Aniang."

Ah Jiu looked at Wang. Wang pretended that nothing happened and turned her back. She seemed to be saying: You have to make up your own mind, the opportunity is given to you.

Ah Jiu understood what grandma meant, she got up and entered the room.

She was stunned as soon as she entered.

Is that a person lying on the bed?

There were ulcers in many places on his body, and his hair was so sparse that his scalp was visible. The man was also shriveled and thin. No, it couldn't be described as emaciated. He had a skeleton.

Is this what a febrile disease looks like?

"Mother Hui'er is helping you up. This is Sister Ajiu. She kindly allowed me to use our knives in exchange for grain. Hui'er planted the seeds today."

Huier looked particularly happy, and she helped the skeleton up.

The woman turned back to look at Ah Jiu. As soon as the corners of her dry mouth opened, Ah Jiu was frightened.

Wherever his face still looked like a living person, it was only skin and bones. His sunken eye sockets made his cheekbones particularly prominent, and his eyes were very red.

"Thank you... thank you..." It was extremely difficult to say these two words from her mouth.

Ah Jiu felt that she was going to die.

She didn't understand the cause of the disease, and she had no idea what to do. She felt weak and turned around to leave.

"Just take a look. Anyway, if you don't treat it, you will die, but if you treat it, you won't be able to survive?" As soon as Wang said this, Ah Jiu stopped.

Holding on to the door frame, she turned around and looked at the thin Hui'er mother, whose gender was no longer distinguishable, and smiled with her mouth wide open:

"Don't worry, Auntie, Hui'er is a very sensible child. Moreover, my mother likes that knife very much. If there is someone in need of help, the villagers will not stand idly by."

"Yes, mother. Mr. Rizheng sees that I am small and it takes a lot of effort to farm, but he is looking for someone to help me. We will have a harvest next year and we will never be hungry again."

The smile on Huier's face was particularly clean.

But in Jiu'er's eyes, can her mother survive until there is a harvest?

There was a voice knocking on her, Meng Jiuer, give it a try. Grandma was right, you will know if it works if you give it a try.

Doesn’t she still have a book on acupuncture called the Eight Methods of the Turtle? If God has the virtue of good health, I hope there are ways to treat febrile diseases in this book.

"Ouch!"

Huier's mother suddenly vomited out a mouthful of pomegranate juice that was like blood.

Ah Jiu stepped forward and patted her back: "Auntie, must you be choking?"

Hui'er smiled and said, "My grandma can't eat anymore, but it's good to taste the pomegranate in her mouth. She hasn't eaten such delicious food for a long time."

When Ah Jiu heard this, she couldn't eat anything? This Hui'er just wanted to give her a taste.

"Mom, do you want to try it again?" Huier peeled a lot of pomegranates and handed them over. She lifted up her sleeve with one hand and wiped the pomegranate juice from the corners of her mother's mouth.

The woman lay down weakly, waved her hands, and with great difficulty said those few words: "Hui... Hui'er, if you don't eat, mother... mother will eat it, it will be a waste."

Ah Jiu saw this and felt extremely distressed.

"Auntie, how about I give you some acupuncture?" She gritted her teeth. At least she was the most familiar with ear acupuncture, so she knew where the reflex zones in the intestines and stomach were.
