Where did the "human blood steamed bread" come from?

Medicine is a novel written by Lu Xun, the founder of modern literature in China. Through the story of the teahouse owner Hua Laoshuan and his wife treating their son Xiao Shuan's bloody steamed bread, this novel exposes the numbness and ignorance caused by long-term feudal rule, secretly praises the indomitable spirit of the revolutionary Xia, and points out the limitations of the 1911 Revolution's failure to get close to the masses.

In the structural arrangement of the works, the bright line is that Hua Laoshuan and his wife treat their son, while the dark line is that revolutionary Yu Xia was killed by warlords. The two lines are intertwined, and the idea is exquisite. In characterization, he is good at using line drawing to express the psychology and character of characters, with vivid images and superb skills.
