Chapter 15: Business Comes to the Door
On this night, some people had trouble sleeping, while others slept soundly.
This is Hou Yue's first night in this world, lying in bed, she can't help but sigh that although people here don't pay attention to spiritual self-cultivation, the pursuit of material things is real.
The bed was so soft that she didn't even want to go into the space to take care of the herbs, anyway, let them grow, she would be lazy today.
Here, Hou Yue, a good night's sleep.
The next day, at noon, Hou Yue was helping out in the pharmacy in the front yard.
At this time, a man with a strong physique walked in from the door, his beer belly made him look like a pregnant woman, his face was full of irritability, the one who walked in with him should be his wife, both of them looked relatively strong, and their faces were more kind, if it weren't for his distressed expression at this time, the first impression of them should be good.
Before they came in, they said a few words at the door, and Hou Yue stood closer to the door, so he could hear their conversation very clearly.
"Can this pharmacy be trusted? Don't cheat people when the time comes, and you don't know what's going on. The man said.
"Okay, just believe it. It's all come to this point, what else can I do? The wife said.
"I don't know where you heard that, really. Where can Chinese medicine be trusted, it is better to go for chemotherapy. "It is clear that this man does not believe in the effects of Chinese medicine at all.
"This was introduced to me by a very famous doctor, and it is said that this pharmacy has been around for many years..."
The couple kept talking and walked in the door.
Seeing this, Hou Yue also walked from the place near the door to the place where he was inquiring. Mainly because she wanted to see firsthand how medicine could be practiced in this world.
As soon as the man came up, he called the old man by his name, and made it clear that he wanted the old man to help him see a doctor.
Hou Yue wanted to laugh a little, didn't he know that Renxintang only had an old man?
"Doctor, my husband has that kind of disease, can there be a way?" His wife said.
The old man was sitting at the table in front of the medicine cabinet at this time, and he looked up at them, "Sit down." ”
"Doctor, no need, we've already been to a big hospital for a check-up, it's that kind of disease." They refused.
"What kind of 'that' is that?" The old man couldn't help this kind of patient, so he asked him to sit down and take a good look, and he refused.
"It's cancer." She spoke.
Hou Yue found that since he entered the pharmacy, the man had not spoken, and he didn't know whether he was taboo or resistant to Chinese medicine.
Hearing that it was cancer, the old man was a little shocked, and sighed again, alas, now there are more and more people suffering from this disease.
"Didn't you go to chemotherapy or something?" The old man asked.
The wife glanced at her husband, "We went to the hospital and asked, the price of chemotherapy is too expensive, so we asked a very famous doctor, and he recommended us to come here." ”
Cancer? Hou Yue was a little puzzled, she had never seen this disease before, and it was estimated that this was one of the side effects of the rapid development of industry in this world.
In Hou Yue's memory, in this world, because they can't afford to pay for expensive medical treatment, countless people have died because of this disease, and because people have not paid attention to health in the past century, the number has increased.
The couple in front of her is also like this, they can't afford to pay the expensive fees and come to find a Chinese medicine doctor and pray for luck.
