Chapter 114: Collecting Blood and Sheep Fat

"Sell Baked Cakes One by One"

"The steamed buns that have just come out of the pot are still hot."

Good rouge gouache, hey, girl, don't you take a look at it?"

The streets are bustling with activity, and the vendors are shouting for their stuff.

And Su Jin was stopping in front of a stall selling rouge gouache at this time.

"Girl, look, this is a batch of rouge that we have newly produced this time, it is definitely a first-class good product, not that I blow it to you, compared to the palace, we don't promise much."

Su Jin picked up a piece of lipstick and sent it to the tip of her nose, and the fragrant fragrance instantly filled the entire nasal cavity, the color was peony red, a very expensive color, and the texture was delicate and soft.

It's really a good thing, but compared to the palace, it's still a big step behind after all.

Shaking his head, he put down what he was holding and turned to the next stall.

This is the first time she has gone out of the palace to go shopping, and I heard that this street is the most prosperous, and as far as the current situation is concerned, it is indeed the case.

The people live and work in peace and contentment, and commerce is thriving, and it can be seen from the people's livelihood here that Xiao Moyuan is indeed a king with outstanding political skills.

While she was casually strolling, a seemingly inconspicuous stall suddenly caught her eye.

The seller was a boy dressed in a coarse linen coat with many patches sewn on the cuffs and placket of his shirt, and he knew at first glance that he was a child of a poor family.

The boy's eyes were clear, and his whole person was steady and unbefitting his age, and he did not shout like the others, but just sat quietly in front of his stall.

A piece of linen lay flat on the floor, and on it lay a few small scattered objects, more simple than simple.

Su Jin walked over curiously, picked up a hairpin, and spun it around her fingertips.

The hairpin is copper, the hairpin body is carved with water ripples, and there is a white bead on the hairpin's head, and there are faint traces of wear.

This is just an ordinary hairpin, which can be seen everywhere in the market, put down the hairpin in his hand, Su Jin picked up another sheep fat jade.

"Girl, do you want to buy it, the hairpin just now only costs two yuan, and the piece of mutton fat jade in your hand only costs five yuan."

Seeing that Su Jin had no intention of leaving immediately, the boy finally spoke and asked cautiously.

"Girl, don't listen to this kid's nonsense, what kind of mutton fat jade is he, it's clearly a fake.

And the hairpin, I only need two pennies here, it is definitely more delicate than his, if the girl wants to buy it, why not come to me to have a look. ”

The vendor in the stall next door seemed to be moved by Su Jin, and hurriedly wooed him, with this kid next to him to make a comparison, his recent business was much better than before.

He thought that Su Jin would also give up that kid immediately and come to him to choose, but Su Jin's behavior surprised him.

"No, I'm more interested in his stuff." Su Jin looked at the piece of mutton fat jade and refused.

More interested in his stuff?

The boy's eyes lit up for a moment, he had been waiting here for a long time, and the girl in front of him was the first to say that he was interested in his things.

"Girl, what you are holding in your hand is definitely mutton fat jade, I didn't lie to you."

Su Jin smiled, like the warm sun of March, weighed the mutton fat jade in his hand, and said with a smile, "I know that you are really mutton fat jade, otherwise I wouldn't waste time looking at it, right?" ”

Others may not be able to see it, but she can see that the piece in her hand is not only mutton fat jade, but also a rare blood mutton fat jade.

The reddish streaks of blood in it are enough to prove it, but most people will think of it as impurities.

Indeed, the red silk impurities have a great similarity with the real blood sheep fat jade, but the biggest difference between the two is that the texture is different, one is slow and steep, and the other is urgent and urgent.

What the? What this kid has in his hand is really mutton fat jade?

If he knew it was true, he bought it, knowing that the mutton fat jade is more than just five cents.

The peddler was dumbfounded, and regretted that he had missed a sum of money in vain.

"Since you know that your stuff is true, why don't you fight or grab it here, and let others ridicule you."

Facing Su Jin's gaze, the boy lowered his head a little shyly, and bit his lower lip before speaking, "Because no one believes that this mutton fat jade is real." ”

It turned out that this was the case, Su Jin nodded clearly, took out a tael of silver from his arms and handed it to him, and just got up to leave, an anxious voice suddenly sounded behind him.

"Brother, grandma's illness has worsened again, and she vomited blood again just now, what can I do?"

A girl who looked to be about eleven or twelve years old ran towards the boy, tears in her eyes crackling and falling to the ground, a face that looked like a boy was flushed, and the whole person was crying breathlessly.

"Grandma just vomited blood?"

When the boy heard this, he quickly packed up the things on the ground and put them on his back, compared to his sister's chaos, he seemed a little more calm.

"Didn't I tell you before that if grandma gets sick again, she should go to Dr. Liu immediately."

When the girl heard this, her tears fell even more fiercely, and she wiped it with her hand indiscriminately before she sobbed and spoke.

"I went to see Dr. Liu, but Dr. Liu didn't treat him, he said that the money my brother gave before was only enough to treat my grandmother once?"

Don't have enough money?

He obviously gave Dr. Liu a tael of silver before, and Dr. Liu also said that it was enough for his grandmother to treat her next time, so why is it suddenly not enough now.

The boy's calm face finally showed panic, and now the money in his hand was not enough to buy medicine for his grandmother, how should this be.

Su Jin weighed the blood sheep fat jade in his hand, and suddenly said, "I also know a little bit about medical skills, maybe, I can help you." ”

She is not a virgin, and she doesn't want to be nosy, if he found out that the sheep fat jade was real just now, and opened his mouth to her lion to raise the price, she really wouldn't look at him more.

Because of his principle, it made her look a little different, and the piece of blood sheep fat jade in her hand was enough to bear the cost of diagnosis and treatment.

"Sister, are you willing to treat grandma, grandma is very seriously ill and has taken a lot of medicine without effect, can you cure grandma?"

The little girl grabbed Su Jin's sleeve as if she saw hope, and her eyes were full of uneasy pleading.

"Don't mess around."

The boy pulled the girl past and arched his hand apologetically to Su Jin.

"Girl, my sister is still young, I don't understand, I'm sorry for the girl, I understand the girl's kindness, but the girl doesn't know, my grandmother's illness is really serious, and I still don't bother the girl."

The boy looked anxious and took the girl's hand and wanted to leave.

"Don't you believe me?"

Su Jin touched her face, did she have a face that made people lack trust?

The boy's body stiffened, and a wry smile tugged at the corner of his mouth, "How could I not believe the girl, it's just that I'm afraid that grandma's illness will scare you, if the girl is willing, come with me." ”

……………

After walking about half a stick of incense, they arrived at the boy's house.

What catches your eye is a dilapidated thatched hut with crooked fences of varying lengths, and the yard is overgrown with weeds, only the inside of the yard is still clean.

The straw around the house had rotted in a few places, and the whole house looked crumbling and in danger.

Inside the room were stacked with firewood for the fire, two pairs of chopsticks scattered on the simple pot table, and a dry and hard nest head was placed in a notched bowl.

"Ahem one by one"

From the inner compartment, the old woman's suppressed cough could be faintly heard.

"Grandma, how are you, I got my brother back, and my brother also brought a sister back to see you, you will definitely be fine."

As soon as she entered the house, the girl rushed into the house, and the tears that had just stopped were flowing down again.

The old woman touched the girl's head, covered her mouth and coughed violently twice, and when she removed her sleeve, she found that it was already covered with blood.

"Nizi, I can't see this disease well, don't spend money on me, my old bones should have died a long time ago, and I can't bother you anymore."

The girl shook her head desperately and turned her head to look at Su Jin, "Sister, didn't you say that you would help grandma see a doctor, you will definitely cure grandma, right?" ”

"I try."

Su Jin didn't say too much at once, judging from the old woman's performance, she could roughly determine that it was tuberculosis, but she still needed to see the specific situation.

She put her hand on the old woman's wrist, and the pulsation of her hand made her expression slightly solemn.

"Girl, I know what kind of illness I am, you should be a good person looking at you, tell those two children, don't waste your efforts on me."

The old woman sighed helplessly, looking at Su Jin's eyes full of love.

She has lived all her life, and she has also practiced a little bit of the ability to see people, and the eyebrows and eyes of the girl in front of her are very atmospheric, and it can be seen that she is a broad-minded person.

"Sister, grandma, she......... Hmm........."

The girl tried to make a sound, but the boy covered her mouth.

"Shh.........h Don't talk........."

The girl nodded, and only asked in a whisper after the boy had removed his hand.

"Brother, can this sister cure grandma's illness?"

The man lowered his eyes, his eyes flickered a little, and it took a while to spit out a word: "Yes." ”

He didn't know why he would trust the woman in front of him who had only met once, but his intuition told him that he could trust her, and when he could tell from her glance, he knew that she was not an ordinary person.

Su Jin sank her eyes, took out the needle curtain from her arms, took out a few and pricked them on the old woman's acupuncture points, and helped her regulate her breath.

As she had diagnosed, the old woman had tuberculosis, and her lungs were already in tatters, and it was almost impossible to cure them.

Coupled with her advanced age and organ failure, even if she is able to delay her life span for a few years, this is already the limit.

In other words, even if the old woman had not suffered tuberculosis, she would not have had a few years left at her age.

"Sister, what's going on with grandma's illness?" The girl finally couldn't bear to think about it and asked.

Su Jin pondered for a moment, and finally spoke, "It can be cured." ”
