Wait, wait, wait, after the sun sets in the mountains, the night covers the sky. It wasn't until late at night that the doctor opened the door and came out of the room. The doctor leaned against the door frame, shaking his sleeves and fanning himself, looking like he was in prostration.

Zheng Qiu and his father rushed to him in an instant, one grabbed his shoulder, and the other grabbed his clothes. "Doctor, what's going on inside?"

"Yes, doctor, how is my senior sister?"

The doctor wiped his sweat and replied, "I used the method of borrowing blood, and my life was saved, but only temporarily." ”

"What? How can you keep it temporarily? Are you still not a doctor?" Zheng Qiu's father was excited, and his hands couldn't help but be strong.

"What are you doing, let go of your hands, let go!" the doctor pushed Zheng Qiu's father away. "Do you want her to live?"

"Yes, of course. ”

"Now, let me tell you, she's been in the water for too long, the water isn't clean, and now there's signs of infection. ”

"Infected!" This Zheng Qiu knew that after being injured, he would become infected if he touched something unclean, and then the wound would not heal, and if he had a fever again, he would be gone in a few days. He kept tugging at the doctor's clothes: "Is there a way to do it?" Doctor, if you save my senior sister, you can definitely ......."

"Okay," the doctor interrupted Zheng Qiu, "I can prescribe medicine, but it's up to her to get past it, and of course you have to take care of it." ”

Zheng Qiu's father patted his chest: "Doctor, don't worry, as long as you prescribe medicine, we will definitely take care of it for a moment." ”

The doctor patted his sleeve: "I have always been the biggest patient, you rushed into the clinic in the morning, carried me here, and your hand just now, I can ignore all this." But you can't afford not to pay for this medicine. ”

Zheng Qiu's father's expression froze, and then he showed embarrassment: "This ...... Doctor, you said, I definitely don't owe you the cost of medicine, even if you smash the pot and sell iron, I will make it up for you. ”

The doctor looked back at the room and shrugged: "The medicine for the infection is not cheap, I think you may not be able to make up for it if you smash the pot and sell iron." ”

"What about this ......"

"Hmm...... In this case, I will make an exception for you to keep an account, and you will pay a little bit every month in the future. ”

Zheng Qiu's father was overjoyed: "Great, you are such a good person, a good doctor!"

"It's not too late to shoot when you pay off the medicine bill," the doctor looked up at the dark night sky and said to Zheng Qiu's father, "Do you have any other places to live in the middle of the night, you can't let me go back." ”

"Yes, yes, it's the room next to it, I'll open the door!"

Seeing his father leading the doctor away, Zheng Qiu hesitated for a while, pushed open the door and walked in. In the house, Zheng Qiu's mother sat on the edge of the bed, while the master moved a stool to sit on the head of the bed.

Zheng Qiu slowly approached, and the senior sister on the bed was wearing his mother's clothes, her eyes were closed, and her face was pale and pale, as if there was no breath at all.

"Master?"

"Good apprentice, rest assured, Senior Sister is still alive. ”

"Come, son. Zheng Qiu's mother moved, patted the edge of the bed and asked Zheng Qiu to sit down.

"Mother, what's wrong with you?" Zheng Qiu found that his mother's voice was a little soft, revealing tiredness.

The master opened his mouth and explained: "The doctor used the method of borrowing blood to save the life of the senior sister, which borrowed your mother's blood. ”

"Mother, how are you?

"It's okay, the doctor said, rest for half a month, don't do heavy work, you can recover soon." ”

The next day, Zheng Qiu's father sent the doctor back to the clinic and grabbed the medicine according to the prescription at noon.

The master used river mud to paste two stoves, which were specially used to decoct medicinal soup and boil ointment. Zheng Qiu's mother stayed in the house to rest, changing the medicine and wiping the body for the senior sister. Zheng Qiu asked for a long time, and only got a job of boiling water and basins.

The doctor's medicine was very good, and the senior sister showed no signs of fever, and as time passed, the senior sister's face gradually improved.

It wasn't until the eighth day that Zheng Qiu's mother's surprised cry came from the house: "Wake up, wake up!" When Zheng Qiu and his master heard it, they threw away the things in their hands and hurriedly ran into the house to see.

I saw that the senior sister's eyes on the bed were slightly open, and her eyes slowly swept over the side of the bed, as if she was a little confused.

"Senior sister, senior sister!" Zheng Qiu leaned on the edge of the bed and called her loudly.

Hearing someone calling herself, Senior Sister's gaze moved over and stopped on Zheng Qiu's face. After a long time, Senior Sister's eyes opened a little more, and her gaze was a little more radiant than before.

"Medicine...... Tong ......" Senior Sister's mouth moved slightly, squeezing out two words, and if there was no voice, Zheng Qiu could only hear it if he put it to his ear.

"Master, master!" Zheng Qiu raised his head with a happy face, "Senior sister called me, you see she recognized me!"

The master raised his hand and patted him on the head: "Be quiet, she needs to rest now, you go outside the house like this again." ”

Zheng Qiu hugged his head and shrank to his mother's side: "Got it, master, I'm not noisy, not noisy." ”

Zheng Qiu's mother asked the master, "Big brother, can she eat now?"

"Not now, you have to make rice soup first, then thin porridge, feed it little by little," the master pulled Zheng Qiu, "Don't you always have to help?" ”

After feeding rice soup for two days in a row, the senior sister's state has improved, and her body can move slowly. After three more days of gruel, the elder sister was finally able to sit up and eat by herself against the pillow.

"Son, the porridge is ready, bring it to your senior sister. The mother handed the bowl to Zheng Qiu, "Be careful, don't get hot." ”

Zheng Qiu walked out of the kitchen with small steps, and pouted to cool the porridge along the way.

"Senior sister, drink porridge!" Zheng Qiu pushed open the door and was surprised to see the situation inside.

The elder sister fell to the ground, her hair scattered. Things were scattered all over the room, drawers and cabinets were opened, and the inside was turned into a mess.

"Senior sister, senior sister, what's going on?" Zheng Qiu put the bowl on the table and ran up to help.

How did the senior sister stretch out her hand, grabbed Zheng Qiu's arm, and shouted loudly: "Medicine boy, what about the letter, what about the letter?"

"Faith, what faith?"

"Where's the letter I put in my clothes?"

"Senior sister, I don't believe it. I rescued you by the river that day, and I didn't see any letters. ”

"No, it's impossible!" Senior Sister shook her head again and again, her hair becoming more messy, "What about my clothes, where are them?"

"The clothes are still there. Senior sister, I'll help you back to bed first, and I'll get it later. ”

"No, go now, now!"

"Okay, okay, I'll go now, go now. ”

Zheng Qiu hurriedly ran to the utility room and dug out the clothes from the basket where the old things were thrown. Patting the ash on it, Zheng Qiu held it up in front of the senior sister.

"Where's the sleeve, where did the sleeve go?"

"Senior sister, there are no sleeves, and when I rescued you that day, my clothes were torn. You see, this back waist, and this skirt, it was torn at that time......"

Zheng Qiu found that the senior sister was stunned halfway through speaking, he put down his clothes and leaned over, only to find that the senior sister was shedding tears there with her head down.

"Senior sister, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I was wrong! Don't cry, don't cry!" Zheng Qiu was at a loss all of a sudden, not knowing what to do.
