Chapter 35: Waiting for the Rabbit
"Make fun of me again, see that I don't tear your mouth!" The little sister blushed and tried to catch the young woman again, but the young woman hurriedly giggled and dodged away, and saw that someone came down with a bucket, so she hurriedly said, "Okay, don't make trouble, people are still waiting to carry water." ”
The second daughter had already made the water, and walked up the stone steps with the water, and the little sister walked past Zuo Shaoyang with a red face, glanced at him, ate and smiled, and walked away with the water steps.
Zuo Shaoyang touched the upright head on his head, looked at the graceful waist of the little sister who was far away, and the tip of his nose was still rippling with her faint body fragrance, but somehow, this fragrance reminded him of the grass fragrance on the firewood girl, the smell of the delicate freshly sprouted grass in spring, and he couldn't help but be a little drunk.
He picked up the water, opened the door and swept the floor, there was no more snow last night, and there was no snow on the ground, so there was no need to sweep.
Zuo Gui's father hasn't gotten up yet, so he doesn't need to open a pharmacy. He smashed the pine cones to get pine nuts and ground pine juice, fed the little squirrels with a shallot pipe, and soon fed the little squirrels full. The little squirrel curls up in its nest and goes to sleep.
When he cleaned up the house, Zuo Gui got up and came out. My sister Fennel also came, and there was only time for the last day to raise money, and she was also worried about her parents, so she ran here for the past few days.
Liang boiled hot water to make a pot of hot tea for Zuo Gui, and said worriedly: "Master, it is the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, and this 2,100 Wen rent, what should I do?" ”
"There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain!" Zuo Gui's teacup is very large, his head is buckled in the teacup, and he speaks in an urn angrily: "Wait a while, I will take Zhong'er to go to the doctor again to make some money for the New Year, this time the money earned will not be paid first, buy a knife of meat for the New Year, and call Huazi for thirty nights, if it doesn't work, we will move out, and there is still one or two hundred dollars in our hands, you can rent a house to live, and in the future, our grandfather and I will be a bell doctor to earn money, and we can also feed the family, and I can't starve you!" ”
"Alas! That's all there is to it. Liang sighed.
Fennel had heard Zuo Shaoyang say yesterday that they had saved the little young master of the rich man's family in Laohuaishu Village, and said: "Dad, if you can keep the signboard of our Guizhitang, you still have to keep it, I thought about it last night, but it really can't be done, so we will go to Huimin Hall to find the family who said that the child was sick yesterday, and ask them to help borrow 2,000 Wen to get through this difficulty, and make money to pay him back in the future?" ”
"No way!" Zuo Gui put down the big teacup and glanced at the fennel: "It is very inappropriate for us to receive more than 1,000 yuan from him yesterday, and then go to someone to borrow it, people don't know our difficulties, and they think that we are insatiable and want money, which will make people laugh." ”
"It's better to be laughed at than to be swept away!" Fennel muttered.
"What did you say?" Zuo Gui glared and said,
Fennel said: "Dad, we just borrowed, not that we didn't pay it back." You've saved their son's life, so it shouldn't be a problem to borrow some money, right? They saw that you saved their son's life, and they should believe that your medical skills can make money, so they can also pay off the arrears, we told them these situations, they can understand, it's a big deal to pay him a little interest......"
"No way!" Zuo Gui said coldly, "If I say no, I can't do it!" -- The water spilled by the married girl, you don't have to worry about the affairs of the family. Just take care of your own husband's house! ”
Sister Fennel's words made Zuo Shaoyang's eyes light up, and he thought of an idea, and said, "Dad, I'll go pack up my things, prepare dry food and water, and when you finish drinking tea, we'll continue to patrol the hospital, right?" ”
"Hmm!" Zuo Gui took the teacup and continued to taste.
Zuo Shaoyang excused himself to let Fennel help, and the two went into the kitchen. Zuo Shaoyang said: "Sister, I think of a way to make money, do you think it's okay?" ”
"You say!"
"You dress up, go to the Huimin Hall pharmacy to watch, observe to see if he has any incurable incurable diseases, and after you find out, follow to find out the address of the patient's family, and immediately come to inform us, and we will find a way to treat it." If we treat them for diseases that Huimin Hall can't cure, my father won't say anything, and we can't squeeze them. What do you think? ”
"Well, the solution is a good way, but the disease that Huimin Hall can't cure, can my father cure it?"
"How do you know if you can't do it if you don't try? Besides, in the past two days, Dad has been a wonderful pen, ah no, a wonderful hand, and he has cured two critically ill patients in a row, we should have confidence in Dad! ”
At the mention of this incident, Fennel was also in good spirits: "That's right! Okay, that's it. Then if I find a patient who is not cured by Huimin Tang, where will I come to you? Aren't you going out of the city and up the mountains to make a medical round? ”
"Later, I will find a way to convince my father that if you don't leave the city today, set up a medicine stall in the city, you can find us."
"That's good! I'll go right away! ”
Fennel is an anxious surname, and he will do what he says. turned around to leave, Zuo Shaoyang stopped her again: "Sister, wait!" ”
"Huh?" Fennel turned to look at him.
Zuo Shaoyang wanted to ask her about the girl who carried the water, but he didn't want to talk about it, so he hesitated and said: "This ......, that ......, forget it, let's talk about it later." ”
"What are you doing!" Fennel glanced at him angrily, "If you have something to say, just say it!" ”
"Alright then, I'd like to inquire with you."
"Who?"
"Do you know that there is a girl, I heard a young woman call her little sister, and every morning she often goes with a young woman to the river in front of us to fetch water. Comb your long braids and like to laugh ......" Zuo Shaoyang described the appearance of the little sister and the young woman.
Fennel smiled: "You should be talking about the three daughters of the Sang family in the tea shop, named Sang Xiaomei, right?" ”
"Really? Hehe, I don't know if it's or not. ”
"How could you not know? You often accompany your father to their tea shop to buy tea, and you still drink tea there early in the morning. You should be talking about her, the old couple of the Sang family have three children, the eldest brother is married, the youngest of the three daughters, and the woman you are talking about carrying water with him should be her sister-in-law. She also has two older sisters, both of whom are married. Speaking of which, this little sister is still related to our family, - what, are you still thinking about this? ”
"What's the matter?"
Seeing Zuo Shaoyang's dazed appearance, Fennel thought that he had not lost his memory after a fall, so he sighed and said: "You and your father often go to their tea shop to drink tea, and the Wang Po next door told her mother that you and the little sister of the Sang family are quite compatible, do you want to say that you are a good match, and the mother said okay, let the Wang Po go to listen to the tone of the Sang family first, if you can, then tell your father, if your father also agrees, you will officially ask the media to say goodbye." However, after Mrs. Wang went to the Sang family to say it, the Sang family was also strange, and she didn't say it was good or bad, but the matter was put on hold, and her mother didn't dare to tell her father, so her father didn't know about it. ”
Zuo Shaoyang thought that there was still this thing inside, presumably Sang Xiaomei and her sister-in-law already knew about it, so they made such a joke about themselves. Thinking about the graceful figure of the little sister of Nasan, I am also a little excited. It's just that now that the family is poor like this, how can I have the heart to think about it, shook my head, and said to Fennel: "It's okay, sister, you can go." ”
Fennel looked at Zuo Shaoyang and said in a low voice: "I guess it's okay to do this, I heard that Sang Xiaomei's father and mother are quite philistine, especially her mother, who recognizes money and doesn't recognize people!" Most of them think that our family is poor, but because my father often goes there to drink tea and buy tea, I don't want to lose this customer, so I don't say anything, so don't think about it, and don't tell my father. Your brother-in-law and I are both looking for you. It's indispensable to find you a good daughter-in-law! ”
As he spoke, Fennel patted Zuo Shaoyang's shoulder, then turned around and went out, and said to his mother, saying that there were some things at home that had not been dealt with yet, and he wanted to go back first, so he left.
Zuo Shaoyang said to his father Zuo Gui: "Dad, today is the twenty-ninth year of the year, will people feel unlucky when they go to the villages and villages this year?" Yesterday, when they looked at us, I thought it was strange that they didn't let us near the door, and let us sit at the door, for fear that we would bring some illness to their house. ”
"Really? No way? Zuo Gui didn't know how others felt, but in ancient times, there was a habit of sending plague gods at the end of the year, so it made some sense to think about it, and he suddenly hesitated.
"Besides, yesterday we have already seen a doctor in Laohuai Village, and the patients who have seen the doctor have only taken medicine for a day, but I'm afraid that it won't get better so soon, and we will go again after the New Year, and they will be almost better, and then collect money, and continue to patrol the doctor by the way, at that time they should not have any unlucky things, right?"
"Well, if that's the case, then it's better to go back to the new year. So what are we going to do today? Zuo Gui knew that if he waited in the pharmacy, he was afraid that few people would come to seek medical treatment.
Zuo Shaoyang said: "Why don't we go to Washi to set up a stall to practice medicine?" There are a lot of people coming and going from the north to the south, maybe someone has a headache and brain fever and wants to see a doctor, isn't it just right? ”
