Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Liu Family's Calculation III
"Don't worry, buy the house first."
"Yes, yes, we have to buy a house, buy a big yard, and then we will all go as a family." Liu Erlang agreed, nodded again and again, thought of Miss Dongjia, and said: "Third brother, you will marry Miss Dongjia in the future, the dowry yard must be indispensable, where will you care about this small yard anymore, you and your mother go to live in the courtyard given by the owner, I will live in the house we bought with Xiaohua Baogen, I will help you watch the business, fight brothers, go into battle father and son soldiers." “
"Where did the business come from, where do you want to go, you have gone to the city, what about the land at home, don't want it." Liu Fushun objected loudly, he was worried about this and didn't want Liu Erlang to go to the city, he didn't have the ability to point fingers at him.
"There is only one daughter in this owner's family, and the business will not be handed over to you to take care of in the future, so what's wrong with giving a little to the second brother to help you watch." Liu Erlang was dissatisfied, these three brothers ate meat, and they didn't want him to drink a sip of soup.
"The land in this house is easy to manage, and in the future, the family buys slaves, let them come back to farm, and when the land is harvested, it will be harvested, or it can be sold directly for a few taels of silver." He will be a rich man in the future, what is a few acres of land.
"Okay, don't make a fuss about it yet, this matter hasn't been overlooked yet." Mrs. Liu saw that the two brothers were arguing about this matter, and quickly stopped it.
"Mother, I don't care, I've worked hard for half my life, and I must go to the city." Liu Erlang stood up and walked out of the house after speaking.
"Son! Look at this, you are developed, and you have to help your second brother! Mrs. Liu persuaded that both of them were her sons, and the palms and backs of her hands were full of meat, although this stingy dick was not in tune, she was obedient, and the money she did every time she did the work was handed over to her.
"Mother, I know, haven't I been undecided?"
~~
"Ming girl, don't go up the mountain to collect medicine today! Hachi said, I'll take you when he's free. When Song was leaving, he was still worried that Xiao Ming would secretly run up the mountain, and he chattered again, early in the morning, when Xia Xiaoba came to pick vegetables, he heard about Xiao Ming going up the mountain in distress, and called Xiao Ming too impulsive, and told her not to go again, and to take the guy with him when he was free.
"I know, I'm not going up the mountain today, I'm taking good care of Maomao at home." Xiao Ming assured, secretly glad that she didn't tell the story that she had been rescued by the wolves, otherwise she wouldn't be on the periphery, even the half-step godmother and Xiaohan wouldn't let her step on it.
"Well, then I'll go next door to help, Yunling and Tiandong, you two take care of your aunt, don't let you go up the mountain." Song also instructed Wang Yunling to have two small ones, and after a few people nodded, she went to the Xia family with confidence, and the Xia family was building a new house a kilometer away from them, separated by an overgrown wasteland, and it would take half an hour to walk
Sending away the godmother, Xiao Ming looked at Wang Yunling and Wang Tiandong, the two children, looking at her vigilantly, as if she was afraid that she would run away secretly, she couldn't help but be a little funny, and said: "Don't worry, I won't go to collect medicine today, just at home, let's plant the medicine we dug up yesterday." ”
"Hmm." Wang Yunling was relieved, took her younger brother with farm tools and followed Xiao Ming to the fruit forest.
Xiao Ming planted most of the herbs he dug yesterday in the space last night, and picked a few small ones of wolfberry and honeysuckle and took them out to plant.
Wang Yunling has been forced to do farm work since she was a child, digging pits and digging soil, but in a moment, she used a hoe to dig out four large soil pits, and Xiao Ming couldn't cry or laugh.
"Yunling, you don't have to dig such a big pit, the pit is too big, and the herb is so small that it can be buried in its entirety?"
"I'm sorry, auntie." Wang Yunling trembled like a child who had done something wrong, remembering that in the past, if she did anything wrong, she would be beaten by Mrs. Liu.
"It's okay, you don't have to be sad, these four pits are just right for growing wolfberries and honeysuckle." Xiao Ming hurriedly explained, it seems that the shadow that Mrs. Liu brought to them was too deep, making her so sensitive.
Wang Yunling was in a better mood when she heard this, and couldn't help asking, "Really?" Aunt. ”
Xiao Ming pointed to the two wolfberries and honeysuckle and nodded: "Really, you see that these few will grow like big trees in the future, only these few can be dug a little bigger, dig a little deeper, and you only need to dig a small pit for other herbs, there is a pit, we will dig a pit around the fruit tree, pay attention to the distance of each pit should be far away, Tiandong, you put the herbs into it one by one, and I will bury the soil." ”
"Auntie, what kind of herb is this?" Wang Yunling pointed to the wolfberry tree and asked, very curious.
"This is wolfberry, pay attention to the thorns on it, it will bear wolfberry when it grows up, red, sweet, very delicious, beneficial to the eye, nourishing the liver and kidneys." Xiao Ming put the wolfberry tree into the pit and buried the soil while introducing the name of each herb to her.
"Look, this vine is honeysuckle, it blooms in April, it is white when it first blooms, and it slowly turns yellow, so it is also called honeysuckle, which can be used to make tea and drink, dissipate wind and heat, cool blood and stop bleeding, lung heat and cough, clear heat and detoxify."
Wang Yunling listened to it with relish, and kept the names and effects of these herbs firmly in her heart, these herbs gave her a new understanding, Xiao Ming saw that she liked to listen to it seriously, and spoke more carefully.
"These are the most common medical knowledge, and if you like it, I can teach you medical skills." Xiao Ming looked at Wang Yunling's serious little face, and deliberately cultivated her.
"Auntie, really? Yun Ling can learn medical skills. Wang Yunling looked at Xiao Ming in surprise, her excitement was palpable, she couldn't forget the woman who walked in from the glow, everyone looked at her differently and respected her, the village chief grandfather spoke to her kindly, and she also applied medicine to her and her younger brother.
When he saw her for the second time, he gave them steamed buns, taught her and her brother to dig yams and roast them to eat, so that they would not starve to death, smiled and encouraged her, comforted her, and he will always remember those gentle eyes.
When she saw her again, she saved her and her brother from fire and water, gave her new clothes, a warm house to live in, and a full meal, and wondered if she could protect her brother from starvation and beatings if she knew how to heal.
Now that her aunt is willing to teach her medical skills, how can she not be excited.
"What's wrong with this, it's just that studying medicine is not a simple thing, you must constantly memorize medical books, recognize herbs and medicines, memorize all the effects of herbs, understand the properties of medicines, in order to cure diseases and save people, not only that, but also have enough courage to be in danger, and even face death." Xiao Ming said, recalling what her grandfather said to her, to be a qualified, even excellent doctor, not only needs medical skills, but also must have a heart of perseverance and continuous learning, good personality quality, and medical ethics.
Treating diseases and saving people in the medical way, facing life and death, and even the misunderstanding of the patient's family have to be experienced and faced, and as a woman, it is more difficult than a man on the way to medicine, and she is questioned and despised by all walks of life. She began to read and write at the age of three, and the enlightenment book was "Compendium of Materia Medica", "Compendium of Materia Medica", "Emperor's Neijing", "Treatise on Typhoid Fever and Miscellaneous Diseases", she could memorize it backwards, and the first word her grandfather taught her to write was the word "medicine".
"Auntie, I am willing to learn, please teach me." Wang Yunling nodded solemnly and said firmly.
"Okay." Xiao Ming nodded, and said: "A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step, we have to come step by step to study medicine, and you have to know one more thing before that." ”
"What's the matter, auntie, please tell me." Wang Yunling asked, a little apprehensive, and her heart was raised again, for fear that she wouldn't.
"You don't have to be so nervous, you have to learn to read before you can read medical books, otherwise how can you prescribe prescriptions to patients in the future." Xiao Ming looked at Wang Yunling's nervous appearance and laughed.
"Every day I will teach you to recognize a few words, from more to less, at night you read with Yu'er, I have to find out Yu'er's "Three Character Classic" and "Thousand Character Text" These simple books."
