"Medicine" 6: Xiao Shuan followed his mother's instructions and fell asleep with a cough. Aunt Hua waited until his breathing calmed down before gently covering him with a patched quilt.

Lao Shuan seemed to hear someone asking him, but he did not agree; his mind was now only on a bag, as if he was holding a baby who had been the only child for ten generations, and everything else was out of his mind. He now wanted to transplant the new life in this bag into his home and gain a lot of happiness. The sun also came out; in front of him, there was a road leading to his home, and behind him, the four dim golden characters "Gu□Tingkou" on the broken plaque at the T-shaped street were also illuminated.

When Lao Shuan got home, the store had been cleaned up long ago, and rows of tea tables were shiny and slippery. But there were no customers; only Xiao Shuan was sitting at the table in the inner row. His mother brought over a plate of black round things and said softly:

"Eat it, and the disease will be cured."
