Chapter 38: I Don't Want to Die
"Master, Master, I'm here!" When she arrived at the pharmacy, Shen Wan'er screamed, then put down the things on her body and went to the cabinet to get busy.
"Wan'er is here, don't be busy yet, come here, I have good things for you here." Wang smiled, beckoned Sheng Wan'er over, and then handed her an egg that had only been boiled for a long time and was still hot.
"The chickens at home laid several eggs yesterday, and I cooked one more this morning, and this is for you to eat." Wang looked at Shen Wan'er's smile very kindly, as if she had already regarded Shen Wan'er as her half daughter, after all, Shen Wan'er worked hard, was smart and likable, how could she not like it.
Shen Wan'er was not pretentious, and after thanking her, she took the egg and ate it.
"By the way, your master was called away early in the morning, and he hasn't come back yet, and I don't know what kind of illness he has, and I still have that egg in the kitchen."
It was not uncommon for this kind of thing to happen before, Shen Wan'er nodded, and she didn't take it to heart, anyway, even if the master was not there, she would be able to catch medicine for others and treat patients in this store.
Now this period of time is the time of alternating between hot and cold, so there are still a lot of people who get wind and cold, and in just one morning, Shen Wan'er has already grabbed more than a dozen pairs of medicines.
But it wasn't until noon that Dr. Zhou hadn't returned, and Shen Wan'er and Wang realized that something seemed to be wrong.
"I'll go find Master."
The Wang family also wanted to go with her, but was rejected by Shen Wan'er, "Master, you stay here to watch the store, anyway, it's not far from the past, it's just a little more time for a stick of incense, and the back and forth is very fast, if there is anything, I will suddenly come back to you." ”
Wang thought about it, so he stayed and looked at the store with peace of mind.
Shen Wan'er went to the place that Shi Niang said, this is an alley, and after walking in, she turned two corners to arrive, she looked back and forth in front of the door, and knocked on the door after making sure that it was this house.
"Who is it?" A loud voice came from inside, seemingly impatient, "Don't be a child knocking on the door again, if it's true, go away for me, I don't have time to play there with you!" ”
"I'm the little apprentice of Dr. Zhou's pharmacy, and Dr. Zhou hasn't been back here for a morning, so I'll come over to have a look."
"It turned out to be Dr. Zhou's apprentice." The door soon opened, and a middle-aged woman who was a little fat was greeted by her, "Come in, Dr. Zhou is seeing my son." ”
Shen Wan'er followed in, and saw Dr. Zhou sitting in front of a teenage boy, asking the boy something, and the boy looked pale, his eyes were dark, and his mental state was very bad.
"What's going on with him?"
"Wan'er, you're here." After Dr. Zhou saw something, he showed his face for a moment, and then frowned again, "It seems to be a little complicated on his side, there is always a red rash on his body, which began to grow in the first two months, but it didn't hurt and swollen in the first two months, and the number was not much, so I didn't care much, but two days ago, it was suddenly red and swollen, and it hurt, I made ointment and smeared it on him, although the redness and swelling went away, but it still hurt, and now I am thinking about whether to use internal medicine to treat." ”
"Can I give him a pulse?"
The middle-aged woman was a little reluctant, but she still didn't say anything after all.
After Shen Wan'er finished taking the pulse, she asked for the ointment made by Dr. Zhou herself, sniffed it carefully, and then asked about the ointment and the medicinal materials used, and finally laughed.
"Master, you don't need to take it internally, your ointment is very well prepared, but there is a taste of medicine in it."
"What?"
"Bluegrass."
"Bluegrass? What do you do with this? ”
"Of course it's pain-relieving, Master, you wait for me to have two sticks of incense, and I'll go."
Shen Wan'er rushed back to the pharmacy, took the things she wanted to take, and then returned to the house, mashing the blue grass she had just brought and adding it to the young man.
The middle-aged woman was still a little skeptical, but seeing that Dr. Zhou believed in Shen Wan'er so much, she could only stop talking, in fact, Shen Wan'er had been able to see that she wanted to speak and stopped several times, and she could understand.
After all, he is still so young, but a teenage girl, most people must believe in people who are older and more experienced.
After a stick of incense, the young man said that he didn't have so much pain in his body, and the middle-aged woman was surprised and delighted, "Real or fake?" ”
"Of course it's true, is it possible that I will still lie to you, it really works, although it still hurts a little, but it doesn't hurt as much as before."
"Wait, it should be about the same, but it may be a little stubborn for a while, so you need to wipe it a few more times to completely eradicate it."
Naturally, the mother and son did not agree, and hurriedly thanked them and gave the consultation fee, and Shen Wan'er left with Dr. Zhou.
When he mentioned this at the dinner table at noon, Wang was also a little surprised, and then took it for granted, "Wan'er is already very powerful, she used to know that there are some medical theories, but now that you have so many medical skills in your collection, if you don't grow at all, then it's not Wan'er." ”
The Wang family seems to have regarded Shen Wan'er as their own child, and generally praises their children for their excellence, naturally with light on their faces, and the whole person looks a few years younger than usual.
But the Wang family is not young in the end, Shen Wan'er looked at the Wang family's face, and her heart moved, although the Wang family is no longer young.
But there is no woman who does not want to look a few years younger in the world, she has tried to make skin care products, but she has not succeeded yet.
"Also, Wan'er is so good." Dr. Zhou also praised him, causing Shen Wan'er to look at Dr. Zhou in surprise.
"Master, if this was said by the master, I would definitely not feel anything at all, but I am still a little surprised that this came out of your mouth."
Doctor Zhou laughed twice, "What's this, it's supposed to be crossed, isn't it possible that you are not excellent?" We all see your excellence. ”
The smile on Shen Wan'er's face became even stronger, it is one thing to achieve achievements herself, but it is another thing to be praised by others, some people in the village praised Shen Wan'er and did not take it to heart, but the status of Dr. Zhou and the Wang family in Shen Wan'er's heart is not ordinary.
A few days ago, I mentioned the debt to Shen Zhao'er, and within a few days, someone came to the door, and as soon as Shen Wan'er returned to Peony Village, someone came to tell her.
"I heard that those people are fierce, and they went to your house and smashed a lot of things, and threatened to cut off one of your father's legs if he didn't do it, and now it's not a hundred taels of silver, but five hundred taels of silver!"
Five hundred taels of silver, so much money, where have other people in the village seen so much money, and they rarely hear it.
"You came back just in time, those people have just left, if you come back half an hour earlier, maybe you will bump into it."
Shen Wan'er rushed home to take a look, and sure enough, she saw that the house was smashed into a mess, Shen Dazheng was holding his injured leg, and screamed for a while, but no one was willing to go forward to check, Shen Zhao'er had already been scared to squat in the corner crying, and he hadn't recovered yet.
"What's wrong with this leg? Interrupted again? ”
"Wan'er, you're finally back, those people ran to the house and started smashing without saying anything, and they also kicked my leg, my leg hurt and was about to break, you can help me take a look."
Seeing that Shen Da's face was so painful that cold sweat came out, Shen Wan'er didn't say much, and after checking it, she realized that the bone was not broken, but the leg had been broken and had not yet swelled, and was kicked hard.
Fortunately, Shen Da knows how to protect himself, and the bones that have grown up are about to be misaligned, but it is not serious, and it will be good to raise it for a few days.
"I've already heard that when those people came, they not only smashed our house, but also said that they would pay back five hundred taels of silver." After rebandaging Shen Da, Shen Wan'er said.
Shen Da snorted, but because he was too excited, he hurt his leg, and he grinned in pain, "Those people who are not things, one hundred taels of silver, it has grown into five hundred taels of silver in just over a month, so if it continues like this, won't it become a thousand taels in another month or two?!" ”
Shen Wan'er sneered, "Isn't it because you gambled that you provoked those people?" You're embarrassed to scold now! If it goes on like this, we will definitely not be able to pay the money, and our family will all die! ”
She sat on the side with self-abandonment, and didn't want to deal with Shen Da, if the family was safe, she would be able to rest assured if she struggled outside, and she had been thinking about whether to buy a house in the town or in the city recently, and now she was making such a fuss, and she was buying a fart house.
The one who can hold back the family the most is Shen Da, but sometimes some of the things Shen Da says are still reasonable, which really makes people angry enough.
"No, no, no, we've only had a better time in the past few months, and I don't want to die." Shen Zhao'er cried so much that her eyes were swollen.
"Then you go and tell your father, if he doesn't read, our life will still be very good, but now look at the amount of money owed, the two of us can't afford to sell it, and the family is in such a mess now, it's really better for the three of us to die together!" Shen Wan'er is a little manic now, if Shen Da listened to her, it wouldn't be like this.
"I paid it back myself, I only borrowed one hundred taels of silver from them, so let me pay back five hundred taels in such a little time, this is definitely not possible, I want to sue the official."
"And then, you don't have to pay back the hundred taels of silver."
Shen Da was speechless for a while, a hundred taels of silver is not a hundred copper plates, and now even if it is a hundred copper plates, he Shen Da can't take it out, let alone a hundred taels of silver!
"Tell me why you went to the city to gamble that day, the city is so far away, you can't walk."
