Shi Xiaorui and so on Zhao Laofu person oneself slowly calmed down a mood, this just a little embarrassed loosened her hand.
"Well, doctor Shi, I'm just too excited. How many years have I had this disease, even my father -- "
She looked at Shi Xiaorui and said, "I've heard Zhao Li say that day, after you diagnosed my pulse, he came back and asked me why I didn't go back to my hometown for so many years."
"I guess he knows. I've kept it from you for so many years, and I never thought I could keep it from you. I didn't expect to be found out for so many years."
Shi Xiaorui didn't interrupt, because she knew that Mrs. Zhao just wanted to find someone to talk to for so many years.
Mrs. Zhao stopped for a while, and then said, "I inherited this disease from my father. When I was young, I didn't know anything about it. I only knew that my father had a strange disease. I couldn't see people or light. I drank medicine in the house every day. It's said to drink medicine. In fact, even if you're waiting to die, because the medicine is not right. It's useless to drink how much or how much. I don't have much impression of my father. His room is so dark that I don't even have a light. The room is full of the bitter taste of medicine. I'm not very happy to go
"My mother always looks sad. I have hardly seen her happy. The most common thing she does every day is to cook medicine for my father, then bring it into the dark room and come out half a day later, because my father always refuses to drink it. "
"I also have two brothers. They are very smart and study hard. My elder brother was admitted as a child student when he was very young. Mother said that big brother is very like his father, especially smart
"I'm the youngest child in my family. It seems that soon after I was born, my father got this disease, which became more and more serious day by day. No matter what doctor he went to, he couldn't cure it. Later, another quack doctor said that my father was possessed by ghosts and became evil. He told us to burn his father quickly so as not to bring disaster to the family. As a result, my mother beat him out with a stick. "
"I haven't seen my father before, but every time I go to see him, he always talks to me in a soft voice. He is very kind. I don't believe that he is an evil thing that is going to be burned to death. He is just sick. It's the quack who is wrong and can't cure people. He's so angry."
"But although the quack was beaten away, he was not reconciled, because he was angry with his nonsense. Our family didn't give him a cent of the medical fees. He spread rumors around our house, saying that my father would attract ghosts and kill all the neighbors around him. Since then, the neighbors looked at us in the wrong way, sometimes it made people feel chilly."
"Later, when the second brother got up at night after drinking too much water, he saw a fire in his kitchen. Fortunately, he found it early and put out the fire in time. But we all know that this fire is not an accident, because the kitchen is full of oil, and we all eat and buy our own oil now. We have never saved so much. "
"So later, we didn't even report to the government. We packed up our things and moved away within two days. We moved to another place we didn't know at all. But when he moved, it was inevitable that he couldn't take care of it. My father saw the light several times, and the situation became worse and worse. Not long after he moved, he died
"When my father was buried, I saw his face for the first time in the sun. He was only in his 40s, but he looked like an old man in his 70s and 80s. The wrinkles on his face were layer upon layer. Big black spots and red spots were still on his face. It seemed that he had not drunk water for a long time. The skin on his face and neck was wrinkled, and there was no meat under his skin, It's like a piece of skin hanging on a bone. The hair is gray and rare. It's just a small bun on the top of my head, which is less than one third of my hair. "
Shi Xiaorui also heard with a heavy heart. Sometimes it's not the most difficult to get sick. What's difficult is that you can only watch yourself die slowly. This process is too torturous.
The story of Mrs. Zhao continues.
"Without my father, we still have to continue to live, but fortunately, my father has left us a lot of property, which is enough for us to live a carefree life. My eldest brother is 12 years older than me. His studies are always good. He was admitted as a scholar very smoothly. He soon got married, married, became a family and gave birth to his first child. We thought things were getting better. "
"A few years later, the second brother got married and soon gave birth to a child. My nephews and nieces are only a few years younger than me. I play with them every day. At that time, they were so happy. Every day seemed to be sunny. "
"I don't know how many years I haven't seen sunshine now," Mrs. Zhao said
Shi Xiaorui had to put her hand on the back of her dry hand and gave her a positive reply again: "soon, if the situation is good, it can be seen in a month."
As if he had just woken up from his memory, Zhao Laofu was full of excitement and hope and said, "yes, yes, it's one month away!"
It seems that she took the courage out of this sentence and told the story again.
But Shi Xiaorui also roughly guessed a little, because the disease of old lady Zhao is hereditary.
In fact, Mrs. Zhao's elder brother is an unfortunate exception.
Half of the cases of vampirism happened in his forties, but he became an unfortunate exception. When he was in his twenties, vampirism broke out.
Because of the experience of taking care of Mrs. Zhao's father, Mrs. Zhao's eldest brother didn't find any good doctor to treat him, but he basically avoided most taboos, which made his condition not worsen so quickly. However, this may not be a good thing, because when he thought the disease was a incurable disease, Living longer only means suffering longer.
When she got married, her mother chose a stranger for her. In order not to let the local gossip affect her married life, she even prohibited her from going home to visit.
But these are not the biggest problems. The biggest problem is that after Mrs. Zhao's elder brother got the same disease as her father, the whole family suspected that the disease would be inherited.
Since then, the second brother has been in a constant state of anxiety. He has not yet got sick, and sometimes he refuses to shine on the sun. The two sisters in law often wash their faces with tears, and they don't know whether such a disease will happen to their children.
