Chapter 19: Ah Qing
The girl took Shen Muyao to her house. The hut wasn't even a house, but a half-collapsed wall, and a few piles of thatch hanging on the roof, and crumbling when the wind blew. On the only kang in the middle of the room, an old man was coughing. The girl pulled Shen Muyao to the side of the kang: "Girl, please save my father!" ”
Shen Muyao patted her hand to appease her, and then checked it. After a while, she frowned slightly: "How long has he been sick?" ”
The girl replied, "It's been more than a month." ”
Shen Muyao looked at it again and sighed softly: "He is already in poor health, and he is overworked, and he is infected with wind and cold, plus your house is not warm, it is getting worse and worse, and now he has tuberculosis, which is already very serious." ”
Tears slowly welled up in the girl's eyes. Shen Muyao hurriedly said: "Don't worry, he's not completely helpless." I prescribed him a few doses of medicine and did some acupuncture to see if he could control it. ”
She thought of her things again: "Oh no, my horse is tied to a tree outside the infirmary, you can go and see if it's still there, and bring it for me." I've got all my silver needles on it. ”
The girl nodded hurriedly and ran out. Shen Muyao wanted to find some pen and paper to write down the prescription, but she couldn't find it after looking around, this house was surrounded by walls, and she couldn't eat enough, so how could there be any pen and paper? She couldn't help but sigh.
The girl soon returned, but her face was stained with mud and her torn dress had a few more holes. She probably hadn't pulled a horse before, so she must have put a lot of thought into it. She clumsily tied the horse rope to the tree, took off the bag, and ran into the house to hand it to Shen Muyao.
Shen Muyao didn't dare to delay for a moment, took out the silver needle, baked it on the only candle, and was about to put the needle. She has always helped people see some minor illnesses and pains, and she has never encountered such a major illness, and she sweats fine on just two or three needles. The girl looked anxious, and she didn't know what to do, so she didn't dare to disturb, so she hurriedly ran out and got the only clean towel dipped in water, and handed it to Shen Muyao: "Girl, wipe your sweat." ”
Shen Muyao shook her head and concentrated on the needle again. Her heart was trembling, but her hands were not trembling at all, and the needle was accurate. After I don't know how long, the sky was full of tiredness, and she put down the last stitch and exhaled a long breath.
The girl wanted to speak, but she didn't dare to come up, Shen Muyao saw it, and said loudly: "He has no worries about his life now, but he still has to continue to take medicine to recuperate, otherwise these injections will be in vain." ”
When the girl heard that her father had been saved, she was in ecstasy, a few lines of tears crossed her face, and she knelt down for Shen Muyao with a plop: "The girl is merciful, and the great kindness is unforgettable!" "I'm going to kowtow to her again.
Shen Muyao hurriedly helped her up: "You don't have to make such a big gift, the heart of the doctor's parents, I can't see death without help." What is your name? ”
"I don't have a name, but my neighbors call me Ah Qing."
"Ah Qing, you go and help me get some paper and ink, I'll write a prescription for you, you take advantage of the fact that the medical hall is still closed, go get some medicine."
Ah Qing went out, and this time he came back after a long time, bringing half a piece of paper, a broken pen, and a little ink in a bowl. She was a little embarrassed: "I have borrowed everything that can be borrowed nearby, girl, do you think this is okay?" ”
Shen Muyao nodded, quickly wrote down a prescription on the paper, and handed it to Ah Qing. Ah Qing was about to go out, but he remembered something again, and said embarrassedly: "Girl, we have no money, we can't afford to buy medicine......"
Shen Muyao took out some broken silver from her bag and handed it to her, and she went out. When I returned, it was dusk. Shen Muyao had already packed her things, and when she saw her coming, she hurriedly instructed her how to boil the medicine before leaving. Ah Qing hurriedly stopped her: "The girl saved my father, the great kindness is unforgettable, beg the girl to tell Ah Qing your name, Ah Qing will repay her in the future." ”
Shen Muyao saw that she had made up her mind, and it was difficult to shirk it, so she said: "My name is Shen Muyao, there is no need to repay it, you take good care of your father, I am leaving." ”
Ah Qing didn't stop again. Shen Muyao went to the inn that had been agreed with the secret guards before, and when she arrived at the inn, more than ten meters before the inn, the secret guard Ah You saw her and hurriedly ran over: "Miss Shen, where have you been?" Everyone thinks you're missing and you're looking for it. ”
Shen Muyao said: "I'm sorry to worry everyone." I just saw a little girl whose father was seriously ill and really pitiful, so I went to help her, but I didn't tell you, I'm sorry. ”
Ah You nodded: "It's okay, I'll call the brothers over." ”
Shen Muyao and the others had a good night's rest, because after that, if they had to climb the last few mountains, they had to buy food and equipment in this small village first. Shen Muyao can also stay and treat Ah Qing's father for a while longer. When Ah Qing saw her coming, she always greeted her happily: "Sister Shen is here!" ”
In the past few days, under Shen Muyao's treatment and Ah Qing's careful cooking, Ah Qing's father has improved a lot, and his life will no longer be in danger. Shen Muyao also asked the secret guards to help repair the house, at least it wouldn't be crumbling in the wind and rain. Ah Qing was grateful to her, one sister Shen in one bite.
After a few days, after packing some good things and luggage, Shen Muyao will leave here. Before leaving, she went to Ah Qing's house and left the prescription for Ah Qing: "Ah Qing, you will use this new prescription to boil medicine in the future, I am leaving here, you take good care of yourself and your father." ”
When Ah Qing heard this, he was anxious: "Sister Shen, why did you leave so quickly!" I haven't had time to repay you yet! ”
Shen Muyao smiled: "I said that I don't have to repay it, I am a doctor, and I will not die without help." ”
Ah Qing didn't know what to refute, her father was still sick, she couldn't just leave with Shen Muyao, so she had to say, "Then when my father is well, I'll come to you again!" ”
Shen Muyao didn't take it seriously: "Okay." ”
