Chapter 5: Saving a Life
The old man said nervously: "I could still buy some medicine for her before, to temporarily reduce fever, but the money has run out in the past two days, I really don't have money to buy her medicine, she has been burning for two days intermittently." ”
Gu Xiaoyou saw that this girl was in a bad condition, and immediately said: "Uncle, you go out first, I'll help her cool down first, she is having trouble breathing now, and it is very likely that she has already burned pneumonia, alas, I haven't prescribed Chinese medicine for pneumonia yet." ”
After thinking about it, she took out her phone again and quickly checked it.
When the old man saw that she suddenly took out something that would glow, he was immediately frightened and his legs weakened, and he sat down directly on the bench: "Gu, Doctor Gu...... You, what do you have in your hands? ”
Gu Xiaoyou remembered that the old man was still here, and he was afraid that he would ask again, so he could only say nonsense: "This is the treasure given to me by the immortals, I can find a way to save people here." ”
"Treasures?" When the old man heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up: "No wonder everyone calls you a miracle doctor, you have really seen an immortal." ”
Gu Xiaoyou didn't hear what the old man said at all, and continued to check the literature, and it took a long time to pick out a few herbs that are suitable for the girl's current symptoms: "I'll write you a prescription, and you will grab the medicine in a while." ”
The old man had a sad face at this time: "Grab the medicine? But I don't have the money to get the medicine......"
"I'll give it to you." Human life is at stake, and there is not much money, Gu Xiaoyou decided to help people to the end.
"Doctor Gu, thank you!" The old man knelt directly to the ground excitedly!
"Oops! Here it is again, you ancient people really love to kneel! Gu Xiaoyou grabbed him hard and said, "Hurry up, I have to decoct the medicine when I come back, when will she be able to eat it." ”
"Yes! I'll go right away! The old man hurriedly rushed out the door to grab the medicine.
Gu Xiaoyou looked back at the girl on the bed and muttered, "You have to come back to life, I still have something to ask you for help in the future......
After the old man came back, Gu Xiaoyou left, and when she met with Zhou, she not only cleaned up the stall, but also bought a lot of food for Aunt Zhang and them.
When it got dark, Zhou and Gu Xiaoyou closed the door tightly, sat on the kang, and poured out all the copper coins they collected today.
"Wow, that's a lot of money......" Liang'er has never seen so much money, and her eyes are lit up.
"Shhhh Zhou said cautiously: "Look, don't talk nonsense about our family having money when you go out, otherwise, it will be troublesome for others to steal." ”
"Good!" Liang'er quickly covered her mouth and signaled that she wouldn't talk nonsense.
Gu Xiaoyou snickered: "Today, we should directly exchange this money for silver in the town, so that it is easier to put some." ”
Zhou sighed: "How can we have a silver horn in our town?" If you want to go, you can only go to the county seat, but the county town rarely says that it takes a day's walk, and you and I are both women, so it's a little unsafe to come and go......"
Gu Xiaoyou understood Zhou's worries: "Okay, then let's talk about it later, let's check the money first." ”
She grinned and did her favorite thing with Zhou.
After calculating the cost in one day, he also earned more than 1,500 yuan, which is almost ten times Zhou's original daily salary.
And Gu Xiaoyou is thinking about buying some good fabrics tomorrow, putting more effort into masks, and making some styles or something......
In the next few days, Gu Xiaoyou and Zhou's sold masks every day, Aunt Zhang and Sister-in-law Hu not only made their own masks, but also brought in their sister-in-law, and the Zhou family became a small workshop for a while, from inside the house to outside the house, it was full of daughters-in-law of each family, chatting and sewing and mending freely, and the village was lively.
In addition to selling masks, Gu Xiaoyou and Zhou are also responsible for purchasing fabrics, in addition to selecting better cotton cloth, they also bought good embroidery threads and made more than 100 masks with embroidery.
For a while, the wealthy ladies and rich ladies in the county also came to buy masks, Gu Xiaoyou took the opportunity to divide the masks into grades, ordinary masks are still five cents a piece, and those with better embroiderers are seven or ten cents a piece.
In just a few days, people on the streets and alleys have put on masks, as if it is a trend.
"Miss Gu, now many people on the streets and alleys have masks, how long can our masks be sold?"
"It won't be long before it sells, and in just three days, we can't come again." There are only five or six hundred households in the town, and the source of customers is still limited.
"You can only sell it for three days?" Zhou's eyes darkened, and he was obviously distressed.
"Don't panic, it's just that we're not coming, but the masks still have to be sold." She's already got her mind set up.
"If we don't come, how can we sell it?" Zhou was puzzled, but Gu Xiaoyou deliberately sold it.
"Wait and see, someone will definitely come looking for me in the next two days."
The more Zhou listened, the more confused he became, who would come to Gu Xiaoyou?
As he was talking, suddenly a voice sounded: "Doctor Gu!" ”
Gu Xiaoyou turned around and saw the old man of that day, and beside him was the unconscious girl that day.
Seeing Gu Xiaoyou, the girl immediately made a big salute: "Doctor Gu, thank you for saving your life." ”
"Hey! You're welcome! "This ninety degree bend is so respectful, she is really not used to it.
"You're welcome, the little girl's life was saved by Gu Shenyi, the little girl can't be repaid, today I came to thank my father."
As she spoke, the girl took out two things in her hand, which seemed to be embroidery.
"I don't have anything at home, so I sewed two purses for you." The girl was afraid that Gu Xiaoyou would feel cold, so she didn't dare to raise her head.
Gu Xiaoyou's eyes lit up when he saw the purse: "Your hands are so skillful, this purse is so beautifully embroidered?" ”
In modern times, this handmade thing has to be sold for one or two hundred yuan!
"By the way, what's your name?"
"Me? My name is Cui Bilian. The girl shyly reported her name.
"Bilian? Nice name, haha, if I'm not mistaken, you usually sell these small items like handmade purses. She hadn't forgotten Cui Laohan's words before.
"Yes." Cui Bilian said: "I don't know anything, I can only sell this on weekdays and earn food with my father." ”
"Are you feeling better?" Gu Xiaoyou looked up and down and found that her face was much better.
"It's okay anymore, thank you for the prescription of Doctor Gu, Daddy said, it's also the medicine you bought with money." Speaking of this, Cui Bilian said a little resolutely: "I came to take care of the divine doctor today, Bilian just wanted to ask if you were short of girls, Bilian couldn't repay it, and wanted to follow the divine doctor Gu to take care of ......"
"Don't, don't!" Gu Xiaoyou hurriedly waved his hand, already frightened in his heart.
People in this era, how can they be so unrestrained, they can't repay them at every turn, and they have to 'promise each other'.
"I don't need you to take care of me, but if you really want to repay me, I really want to trouble you."
"Doctor Gu, you said, the little girl will definitely die."
Gu Xiaoyou looked embarrassed, what did this girl think she was going to do?
