Chapter 169: Dawn in the Mountain Village (5)
Lin Baiyu walked outside the door of the small courtyard and heard a crying voice coming from inside, which sounded like Sister-in-law Zhang. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info Lin Baiyu walked in and saw that all the residents in the courtyard were gathered in front of Zhang's house, with worries and concerns on their faces. Lin Baiyu also heard Zhou Juan's scolding.
"Aunt Wu, what's wrong with Aunt Zhang, what's going on in their family?" Lin Baiyu asked the grandmother of the boy who brought her dumplings on the first day.
Aunt Wu looked back and beckoned, "It's my brother, are you back?"
Lin Baiyu responded, pointed to Zhang's family, and asked, "Did Sister-in-law Zhang offend Aunt Zhou?"
"It's none of the landlady's business, it's all those black-hearted contractors. Aunt Wu said angrily, "Your eldest brother Zhang fell off the scaffold and broke his leg, but those contractors not only did not lose money, but they also did not pay the medical expenses, saying that your eldest brother Zhang violated the rules and fired your eldest brother Zhang, and also deducted half a month's salary from your eldest brother Zhang." You must know that your eldest brother Zhang is the main money-making force of their family, and this time it has collapsed, not to mention the medical expenses, what will happen to the living expenses in the future? It's all on your sister-in-law Zhang, how can she not cry?"
Lin Baiyu said: "The contractor does this kind of thing, aren't you afraid that Sister-in-law Zhang will sue them?"
Aunt Wu was at a loss: "How to sue?"
Lin Baiyu: "Go to the court to sue? Not to mention whether Brother Zhang has violated the rules, if Brother Zhang has an accident on their construction site, they will be responsible." It's that they don't do their job safely. ā
Aunt Wu was even more dazed: "Huh?"
At this moment, Zhou Juan's shout of slapping the table came from inside the room: "Sue them!" My son is a lawyer, let him help you, sue those black-hearted contractors, and let them accompany you for money!"
didn't expect Zhou Juan to be so legally conscious, and Lin Baiyu's impression of Zhou Juan was a little better.
"I'm going to find my son!" Zhou Juan rushed out as soon as she put down this sentence, and was stunned for a moment when she saw Lin Baiyu, and said, "Bringing my brother back? ā
After speaking, Zhou Juan ran out in a hurry.
Lin Baiyu saw that everyone else went into the house to care about Brother Zhang and Sister-in-law Zhang, so she went upstairs and went back to her room first. It is estimated that after everyone returned to their homes and started cooking, Lin Baiyu took out the ointment that was specially configured to treat Director Zhao's leg from the space and walked downstairs.
"Sister-in-law Zhang. Lin Baiyu called at the door.
Sister-in-law Zhang's eyes were red and she walked out, and when she saw Lin Baiyu, she greeted, "You're back with your brother?"
Lin Baiyu responded and said, "Sister-in-law Zhang, how is Brother Zhang's legs?"
When Sister-in-law Zhang heard this question, tears flowed out again: "The doctor said that his leg is broken, and if he doesn't treat it well, he will become a lame man in the future, but where can we get the money to treat his leg!"
Lin Baiyu knew the situation of Sister-in-law Zhang's family, and the countryside where Sister-in-law Zhang's family lived was not much better than the mountain village where Lin Daidi lived, and the people there were poor. Brother Zhang and sister-in-law Zhang came out to work, and some of the money they earned worked hard to earn had to be sent back to their hometown in addition to the cost of school and household expenses for their two children. There is no balance saved at all every month. Brother Zhang's fall is not only a problem of medical expenses, but also a problem for their family's life in the future.
"Sister-in-law Zhang, when I was at home, I followed the old Chinese medicine to learn Chinese medicine and the technology of treating bone injuries, if you believe me, I can help Brother Zhang treat his injured legs. ā
"I believe, I believe. Sister-in-law Zhang nodded again and again, not that she really believed Lin Baiyu, after all, Lin Baiyu was too young, but with the current situation of the Zhang family, if there was a free doctor to help Brother Zhang treat his legs, they would naturally not refuse.
Lin Baiyu walked in the door, and the Zhang family's house was the same size as the one she lived in, but there were too many things in it to squeeze the small space even smaller. There are two beds in the room, both of which are one meter two in size, separated by curtains. Brother Zhang was lying on one of the beds, his face was terrifyingly pale, and his expression was even more eager to die, thinking that he was afraid that his injuries would drag down his family.
"Brother Zhang. Lin Baiyu screamed, but Brother Zhang didn't respond, and his eyelids didn't move.
Sister-in-law Zhang wiped her tears and apologized: "Take my brother, your eldest brother Zhang was sent back like this, I didn't mean to ignore you." ā
Lin Baiyu said: "I understand, it's okay." In this way, I will check Brother Zhang's legs myself. ā
Sister-in-law Zhang nodded again and again, and said, "Take my brother, even if you let it go, even if... We don't blame you for anything. ā
They can't afford to live in the hospital, so they can only rely on Lin Baiyu to "treat dead horses as live horse doctors".
Lin Baiyu squatted down beside the bed and carefully examined Brother Zhang's legs. Brother Zhang's leg is much more serious than Director Zhao's, comminuted fracture, although the doctor helped him to correct and bandage, but it is difficult to completely treat it, and the cost is very huge. Therefore, Zhang Jiacai gave up continuing treatment.
Such an injury was not a big problem for Lin Baiyu, she helped Brother Zhang take the pulse again, stood up in the expectant gaze of Sister-in-law Zhang, and asked, "Do you have paper and pen?"
"Yes, yes. Sister-in-law Zhang rummaged through together, found a blank homework book and a ballpoint pen, and handed them to Lin Baiyu, "Can these two be used?"
"Yes. Lin Baiyu took the notebook and ballpoint pen, and quickly wrote down the prescription on it.
"This prescription is for Brother Zhang's body, and the medicinal materials used in it are not expensive, at most ten yuan a pair. Eat each pair for two days. After eating for half a month, Brother Zhang's body was able to improve. Lin Baiyu handed the notebook and ballpoint pen back to Sister-in-law Zhang.
"So, what about his leg, can it be cured?" asked Sister-in-law Zhang worriedly.
Lin Baiyu nodded, took out the jar containing the ointment and handed it to Sister-in-law Zhang: "This ointment is handed down from my ancestors, and it is very effective in treating bone injuries. If you apply it to Brother Zhang once a day, it will also take about half a month, and Brother Zhang's bone injury will be able to heal and restore sensation in his left leg. After that, he changed the medicine every other day, and in about three months, Brother Zhang was able to stand up and walk again. ā
"Really, really?" Sister-in-law Zhang still couldn't believe it, you must know that the doctors in the hospital said that her head of the house was not healed.
Lin Baiyu pulled the corners of her mouth open, revealing a sunny and confident smile: "I am very confident in my own injury medicine. ā
This smile also infected Sister-in-law Zhang, which made her also have a trace of confidence and made a decision: "I will immediately put you on this shake for the master." ā
Brother Zhang's leg was still covered with a plaster cast from the hospital, and Sister-in-law Zhang simply used a hammer to break the plaster and wash off the medicine given by the doctor. Lin Baiyu took over the following work, Sister-in-law Zhang is not professional, Lin Baiyu is afraid that her hand strength is not right, and she will cause secondary damage to Brother Zhang's legs. Lin Baiyu instructed Sister-in-law Zhang while applying medicine to Brother Zhang, and told her the details of the dressing change. Sister-in-law Zhang listened carefully on the side, she also understood that Lin Baiyu was obliged to help, and it was impossible to ask Lin Baiyu to come to change the dressing for her every day.
Just after the medicine was ready, Zhou Juan pulled a young man and walked in. The young man is of medium height, and his appearance combines the characteristics of Li Defu and Zhou Juan, but he is much more Sven than the two, and he also wears a pair of glasses.
"Zhang, everyone, I brought my son here. Zhou Juan shouted, glanced at Daolin Baiyu, and greeted, "Take my brother, come and see your brother Zhang? Come, let me introduce you, this is my son Li Guangtai, a lawyer." ā
Speaking of her son, Zhou Juan's tone could not hide her pride. Also, compared to others, his son is indeed very good.
"Hello. Li Guangtai stretched out his right hand to Lin Baiyu, he had heard Lin Baiyu's name from his parents, and he was quite curious about this girl, when he saw it today, this girl was really unusual, with a cultivated bearing, and he didn't want to come out of the mountain at all, and she was more noble and elegant than the children of many high-ranking officials he had seen.
"Hello. Lin Baiyu stretched out her hand and shook hands with Li Guangtai, and withdrew her hand, "I won't delay you and Sister-in-law Zhang to talk about business, let's go first." ā
After saying that, he walked out of the room.
Zhou Juan glanced at Lin Baiyu's back upstairs and asked Sister-in-law Zhang: "Won't you bring your brother to send you money?"
"Of course not. Sister-in-law Zhang shook her head. People have nothing to do with their family, so why give them money?
"It's stingy. Zhou Juan cut off, "My husband said that she can earn hundreds of thousands of dollars by gambling on stones, why don't you take out a little help?"
"Mom-" Li Guangtai hurriedly stopped Zhou Juan from talking, if this word reached Lin Baiyu's ears, wouldn't it offend people?
"Gambling stones don't make money every time, most of the time they lose money. Brother Lin's luck will not always be so good, and he will not make money every time. ā
Sister-in-law Zhang also said: "My brother has helped us so much, but we can't take her money anymore." ā
Zhou Juan asked, "What did Brother Lin help you?"
Sister-in-law Zhang said: "Take my brother to help the head of the house treat his legs." This girl is not simple and knows Chinese medicine, so she gave me a box of plasters and put them on the legs of the master, and it is said that in three months, my legs will be able to be healed. ā
"What? bragging, right? The doctors said that your old Zhang's leg is not better, and her medicine can be more useful than the medicine prescribed by the hospital?" Zhou Juan blurted out, and saw that Sister-in-law Zhang's face fell, knowing that she had said the wrong thing, she stopped in embarrassment.
Li Guangtai sighed, his mother's mouth was always open-mouthed, and she didn't know how many people she had offended, but as a son, she could only help her clean up the mess.
Li Guangtai hurriedly changed the topic: "Sister-in-law Zhang, I took the case of helping Brother Zhang with the lawsuit." But I want to know more details, I need you to tell Brother Zhang about it. ā
Sister-in-law Zhang was a little embarrassed: "I said it's okay." But I've been looking like I'm going to die since I was injured, and I don't even say a word......"
Before he finished speaking, Brother Zhang spoke: "I said, I'll tell you everything I know." ā
Sister-in-law Zhang glared at Brother Zhang in surprise and joy: "Boss, you, you actually spoke?"
