Yellow Springs Inn (Bai Fan) Chapter 19: Commercial exchange
"You can't do it, get up quickly!" Zhu Bianque stood by the door of the hall and ordered solemnly.
Hearing the words, Qinghong stepped up his strength and helped the other party up, muttering in his mouth: "Sir, you don't have to perform such a grand ceremony, we mountain people don't know much about etiquette, you If you have something to tell grandpa directly, we will definitely lend a helping hand to whatever we can."
"Yes."
Zhu Bianque also echoed solemnly: "Let's sit down and talk about anything, we don't like kneeling and worshiping in Fenglin village."
"Okay."
Li Yaohua nodded in embarrassment, and then returned to the seat just now.
After the three of them sat down, he gave Zhu Bianque a helpless look, and told the ins and outs of what happened in their family.
From his narration, Qinghong roughly understood Li Yaohua's current confusion.
Originally, this middle-aged man surnamed Li was an entrepreneur in the southern region. He specialized in the sales and production of electronic products.
In terms of career, it can be regarded as thriving. Every day can almost be described as making money every day, and it is definitely a person who is not short of money.
Helplessly, sometimes many things can't be both, because he is too focused on work, his wife divorced him five years ago.
After the divorce, the child was awarded to the wife, and not long after that, the wife took the son to settle abroad.
In middle age, with a successful career, a house, a car, savings, and good looks, but in the end he ends up with a divorced wife and children, which is somewhat sad.
The most frustrating thing is that since his divorce, in order to take care of his elderly mother, he moved to his mother's house, trying to spend more time with his mother after work every day, in order to compensate for the years of suffering. her debt.
The result was unexpected. Not long after the mother and son lived together in peace, some symptoms of madness appeared on the old mother.
At the beginning of the week, it was just forgetting things, not particularly obvious, Li Yaohua only thought that his mother was getting old, and it is not surprising that she has senile amnesia.
But after a period of time, he faintly noticed that his mother seemed to often talk in the room by herself at night, and the voice was still loud, and sometimes she even yelled suddenly. The situation almost scared Li Yaohua to pee.
But there were several times when Li Yaohua went to his mother's room to check in the middle of the night, but he didn't see any other strangers, which meant that his mother was always talking to herself.
In addition, the old mother often said that someone was pushing her behind her back, and she often felt a little cold on her neck, and even said that the old man (Li Yaohua's dead ghost father) asked her to go down to be a companion for no reason. .
As a complete atheist, Li Yaohua would not believe in these supernatural powers and gods at all, so after hearing these descriptions from his mother, he only thought that she had a mental problem.
A few days later, he found time to send her to the psychiatric department of the hospital for examination.
However, unexpectedly, the examination results did not show any obvious pathological changes in her, nor did she have several obvious characteristics of a mental patient.
After staying in the hospital for observation for a period of time, she was discharged from the hospital and returned home.
After this period of treatment, the condition didn't get any better, and it even got worse after returning home. He would often knock on Li Yaohua's door in the middle of the night and say some random things.
When Li Yaohua asked her the next day, she didn't remember anything.
After tossing like this for a period of time, Li Yaohua's mental and physical strength plummeted, and he was woken up every night by his mother's knocking on the door for no reason, which directly caused him to have no energy to deal with the daily affairs of the company the next day.
In the end, in desperation, the mother could only be sent to a mental hospital first, and the professionals in the mental hospital would take care of her for the time being.
During this period of time, he also visited famous doctors in major cities in the south, and found many treatment plans that he thought were reasonable.
However, every attempt ended up being a heavy blow to his increasingly tired heart.
Seeing his mother's situation getting worse, he could only hide at home and sigh secretly. The shock of this period of time was even more painful to him than the divorce.
Later, by chance, at a reception with a business partner, I accidentally met a medicine dealer.
This medicine merchant often goes to the countryside to collect herbs, and has established a relatively deep personal relationship virtually.
As for Zhu Bianque's name, Li Yaohua learned about it from the medicine dealer.
This time, I originally wanted to bring my assistant to Fenglinzhai, Jingzhou County, to see Zhu Bianque for treatment. How much will shake the morale of the army.
So after weighing several times, he finally embarked on the journey to Fenglin Village alone.
It's a pity that as soon as he entered Jingzhou~IndoMTL.com~, his pampered boss was sunburned by the midsummer sun, and finally fell down in the field of Fenglin Village.
If the villagers hadn't discovered it in time, he would have died long ago.
After listening to his eloquent story, both Zhu Bianque and Qinghong's expressions became a little dignified.
Especially Zhu Bianque, sitting in the hall without saying a word, his silent appearance is like a clay figurine and wood carving, and the gloomy expression on his face shows that his heart is not at peace at the moment .
After a long time, Qinghong suddenly took a long breath, glanced at Li Yaohua with uncertain eyes, and cautiously reminded: "Mr. Li, from your description just now, maybe your mother has It's not mental illness..."
"Not mentally ill?"
"That's impossible!"
Li Yaohua analyzed without hesitation: "I studied "Psychiatric Symptoms" some time ago, and I feel that her condition is somewhat similar to the symptoms mentioned above."
"Besides, if she wasn't mentally ill, how could her behavior be so abnormal?"
"Humph."
Qinghong sneered twice, and explained: "There are many reasons for being classified as abnormal, and mental illness is just one of them."
Speaking of this, Zhu Qinghong shifted his gaze to his grandfather again, and after looking at him, he asked in a low voice: "Looking at this, could it be that you have run into something evil?"
"Yes."
Almost without any thought, Zhu Bianque immediately responded: "Judging from Mr. Li's description, it must be a case of evil."
"In a situation like this, it is useless to see a doctor. Only by finding a knowledgeable person to drive out the evil spirits can we truly eradicate this seemingly insane behavior."
