Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Lookless Man
The little carpenter half-pushed, and Qu Menghu walked out of the town and walked towards the nearby bamboo forest.
The place was on the east side of the town, and as soon as you left the town, you could see it, for even at night there were still lights hanging high, and people could be seen in the distance.
Apparently someone came to ask for a doctor's doctor, and they were waiting there.
The two walked for about ten minutes, and finally arrived at the edge of the bamboo forest, and saw that although the thatched hut was of average material, it was quite elegant, a total of three, and there was a grass shed for cooking and cooking medicine next to it, and there were medicine gardens in front of and behind the house, in which some medicinal herbs were planted.
On the outermost part are some intricately woven bamboo fences, which look quite interesting.
Probably because of his thoughts, the closer the little carpenter got closer, the more apprehensive he became, and Qu Menghu rarely saw his friend so embarrassed, and he also laughed evilly next to him, and he talked a lot, I don't know how many times he teased.
Finally came to the door of the thatched hut, outside the bamboo fence, but saw an old woman with a wrinkled face who was giving hands to the three of them, and said helplessly: "I'm sorry, our doctor received the news in the afternoon, we have to go to Yucheng, and we will leave in the evening, and now I can't give you a ......."
Let's go?
The little carpenter was expectant and apprehensive, and with this sentence, he fell directly to the ground, but what followed was a sense of loss.
The person who came to seek medical treatment was very annoyed and said, "Did you say when you will come back?" ”
The old woman said, "It's not a big deal, it should be just these two days, but it's not ...... for sure."
When the man heard this, he turned around and scolded the woman next to him: "You thief mother-in-law, let you set off early, you have to grind, one moment saying that the chickens and ducks were not fed, and the other time saying that the pigs were arched again, and finally went out, and forgot to bring the money...... How much did you say you ruined, how much did you delay? ”
The woman next to her hugged a child, lowered her head, and muttered: "They all say that I am grinding and procrastinating, but have you ever taken a hand in these miscellaneous things at home?" ”
It's good that she didn't reply, but as soon as she replied, the man immediately became angry, and he was about to slap his wife with his palm, but the old woman next to him spoke: "Our doctor, the most unsightly thing is the man who beats his wife, if you dare to do it, don't look for our doctor in the future......
As soon as she said this, the man immediately wilted, and immediately explained with a smile: "Aren't I in a hurry?" I'm just scaring her, I can't really talk about it - you see, my child is sick, and it's hard to make a trip, what can I do? ”
The old woman glanced at him and said, "He should just be an ordinary cold, if you are really in a hurry, go to the west side of the town, there is a clinic......
The man rubbed his hands and smiled, and said: "I know that clinic, Hu Lang's traditional Chinese medicine skills are good, but his heart is very black, he goes in with bright clothes, and he comes out, our family's conditions are too poor, and there is no money, where do you dare to go there?" This...... By the way, you have been following the doctor for so long, and you can see that my son has a cold, why don't you prescribe a dose of medicine for me, okay? ”
When the old woman heard this, she quickly shook her head and said, "This is not good, I just watched the excitement, and I can't do it accurately......"
She kept shaking her head and refused, and the man kept grinding, seeing that the two sides were deadlocked, and when the man was about to kneel, Qu Menghu appeared.
As soon as this master came out, his right hand flipped over, and three oceans appeared on it.
He stretched out the ocean to the man, and said, "Here are three oceans, enough for you to go to the clinic in Nahu Langzhong to see a doctor, hurry up, don't pester other people's mother-in-law here......"
The man's knees were about to bend down, so he was ready to kneel, but he killed such a master halfway, and looked at the ocean in Qu Menghu's palm, and reached out without hesitation, grabbed the ocean, blew it, put it in his ear to verify the authenticity, and then said to Qu Menghu with a smile: "Thank you, thank you, brother......"
As he spoke, he took his wife and children and walked out.
When the old woman saw Qu Menghu standing up to relieve the siege, she also bowed to him and said, "Thank you......"
Qu Menghu saw that the person had already walked away, and couldn't help asking: "Xian Xian, let me ask, the child just now should have a cold, you just prescribed him a pair of anti-cold medicine, why don't you let go?" ”
The old woman glanced at the little carpenter, and then said: "I also followed the doctor to decoct the medicine and do chores, and learned a little fur, if the medicine is rashly prescribed, the child will be cured, if the disease is not good, but it is more serious, and the people will make a fuss when they turn around, and it is the doctor's signboard that smashes it - our doctor is sitting in Longxi Town, although it is convenient for the villagers of ten miles and eight townships, and saves a lot of lives, but also because the consultation fee is arbitrary, and it is not demanding, so it is very offensive to many peers, she always tells me that many people are staring at us, If you don't tremble, you may be harmed one day......"
Hearing this, Qu Menghu smiled and said that you are really knowledgeable......
The old woman smiled, showed a mouthful of toothless gums, and said: "It is all taught by our doctor well-she is not only first-class in medical skills, but also kind-hearted, when my old wife was seriously ill and helpless, she had to wait for death, only her, who did not dislike anything, not only saved me, but also left me down, let me help with chores here, that is a great kindness - by the way, you also came to our doctor?" ”
She looked at Qu Menghu and the little carpenter, and Qu Menghu said with a smile: "Yes." ”
The old woman said, "Then you will have to come another day, our doctor is not at home today." ”
Qu Menghu said: "Don't worry, in fact, the main thing is that my friend heard about your doctor, and I feel that it is a friend of his, so I came over to meet my friends excitedly, but I didn't expect that the person was not there, and I really have some regrets......
The old woman was also a little surprised when she heard this, and she looked at the little carpenter earnestly for a while, and then asked, "Are you a friend of the doctor?" ”
The little carpenter also asked at the moment: "You doctor, is it called Gu Baiguo?" ”
The old woman shook her head and said, "No. ”
The little carpenter asked, "What's that called?" ”
He thought that the old woman would answer him and say a name, but the old woman was the same as Zhou Ping, shook her head and said, "I don't know, she asked me to call her doctor, and she didn't tell me what her name was, we are usually used to calling her ......."
Then the little carpenter asked, "And what does she look like?" Isn't it ......"
He roughly described Gu Baiguo's appearance, but the old woman said again: "It seems to be, but it doesn't seem to be ......."
The little carpenter asked her what she looked like, but the old woman couldn't describe it.
Hearing this, the little carpenter felt that something was not quite right.
If Zhou Ping can't see what the female doctor looks like, it's understandable, as he said, I'm embarrassed to look carefully, but if the old woman who lives with the female doctor on weekdays is the same, then it's a bit interesting.
Qu Menghu listened beside him and couldn't help but ask a few questions, but the old woman seemed to be very vigilant and a little reluctant to answer.
Seeing her like this, Qu Menghu didn't ask again, but said to her: "Xian Xian, my friend is called Gan Mo, Gan Mo Gan Thirteen, if your doctor comes back, you can help us talk to her, if she knows each other, you can go to the inn in the east of the town to find us......
He spoke very sincerely, and when the old woman saw it, she said, "Well, when our doctor returns, I will tell her." ”
Qu Menghu thanked her, and then pulled the little carpenter out of the hut.
The two walked back, and Qu Menghu said: "It seems that this female doctor is not simple-what can make people can't remember her appearance, what kind of means does this have?" ”
The little carpenter was silent and did not speak.
He originally thought that after coming over, he would be able to get a result, but he didn't expect it to be even more confusing.
It made him feel a little depressed.
The two returned to the inn, and Qu Menghu went over on purpose to talk to Xu Qingshan about the female doctor, and found that he had no way to describe what the female doctor looked like......
This is really strange!
On the same day, the two settled in the inn, and the little carpenter lay on the bed, thinking left and right, tossing and turning, and it was difficult to sleep......
After another two days, the female doctor never came back, but the mother-in-law came to change the dressing with Xu Qingshan, and saw Qu Menghu and the little carpenter here, so she became suspicious.
By the afternoon of the third day, the female doctor still did not come back, but a man from Huamen came over and told them that Cheng Zixiao had rushed to Wushan County and was now settling down in the county seat.
Qu Feng was also staring.
After receiving the news, the little carpenter and Qu Menghu also put down the matter here, asked Zhou Ping to take care of Xu Qingshan, and the two rushed to the county seat with the people from Huamen.
When he arrived at the county seat, he happened to collide with Qu Feng, and he told the two that Cheng Zixiao had been eating at the restaurant over there for almost two hours.
Hearing this, Qu Menghu's face changed, and he said, "Have you gone in and seen it?" ”
