Chapter XXIV; Rise to fame
The old man's words made Su Dongli stunned in his heart.
"What a coincidence, right? I'm just talking nonsense, but is there really one? It's really unintentionally planted in the willows and willows. ”
"I'll be able to use this excuse to explain to people later."
At this time, the old man touched the long beard on his chin and said with a smile; "Su girl, good luck, you can meet that old Taoist priest, and you can also be taught by him, in a few years, you are afraid that you will become the second miracle doctor in our town."
As soon as he said this, everyone cast envy at her.
"This... I'm afraid not, the old Taoist priest has already left more than ten days ago. ”
"Gone? Where did you go? ”
Su Dongli shook his head, and if he continued to use this as an excuse, he had to make it up decently.
"I don't know, I ran to the mountains every day some time ago, just to learn things, and the old Taoist priest disappeared more than ten days ago, and then he never appeared again."
"Oh, that's a pity."
The old man shook his head regretfully.
"By the way, what did you learn from that old Taoist priest, Little Sister Su?"
"I didn't learn much, and he said that I should be able to cure some minor ailments of headache and brain fever now."
When Zhang Juan heard this, she said with a smile; "That's not bad, if you find someone to study in the future, it's definitely no problem to be a doctor."
"When the time comes, it will be much better than those of us who are digging in the fields."
Just as a few people were talking, Aunt Genzi came out of the house and came to Su Dongli.
"Girl, you take the ten yuan, thank you for saving my little three's life."
Su Dongli turned his head to look, and was stunned when he saw a small stack of banknotes handed over by Aunt Genzi.
There is one, there is five, and there is one.
"Auntie, didn't you slap me in the face? I can't take this money. ”
"Why can't you take it, you saved the life of Xiao Sanyi, this is what you deserve, I still think it's too little, take it."
Zhang Genzi also spoke.
"I really can't accept it, everything is picked in the mountains, and besides, the junior calls me sister, it's right to help him, so can I collect money?"
"Auntie, you hurry up and take it back."
Aunt Genzi looked at her husband Zhang Genzi with some embarrassment.
"One yard to one yard, you better accept this money, otherwise Uncle will be angry."
Seeing that his face was firm, Su Dongli didn't know what to say about the delay, so he was silent for a while and reached out to take out a piece of money from Aunt Genzi's hand.
"Then I'll take a piece, the medicinal materials and everything are picked in the mountains, no money."
"This..."
"Uncle, don't say it, if you say it again, I won't accept this piece."
Zhang Genzi sighed and nodded at his daughter-in-law, and Aunt Genzi took the remaining nine yuan back.
"Daughter-in-law, cook a few hard dishes in a while, and invite the girl to eat at home in the afternoon."
Aunt Genzi nodded again and again.
The crowd dispersed one after another, and Su Dongli took Zhang Xiaosan to drink the medicine at Zhang's house before returning to his yard.
went directly to the kitchen and ordered a bowl of noodles, she wanted to cook just now, but she ran into Zhang Xiaosan's affairs and was busy for more than an hour.
As soon as she finished eating, she saw a woman in her forties walk in from outside.
She knew this person, and it was the daughter-in-law of an uncle in her own family, named Yu Guiqin.
"Girl, are you free now?"
"Are you free, Aunt Qin has something to do?"
Su Dongli showed curiosity on his face and continued; "Auntie, let's talk in the house."
Yu Guiqin followed her into the house, and as soon as she sat down, she spoke; "Girl, my aunt came over today because I want you to help with something."
"Help? Auntie, you say, I can help. ”
Yu Guiqin hesitated a little, and only spoke after a while; "Your uncle broke his leg some time ago, and he hasn't recovered yet, I saw you help Zhang Xiaosan get rid of poison today, and you are very capable, so I want to invite you..."
"Do you want me to help my uncle take a look?"
Yu Guiqin nodded again and again.
"I've also heard about my uncle's fall, why don't you go to the town for treatment?"
"This..."
There was an embarrassed look on her face, and it took a moment before she spoke; "There is no money, and it will cost dozens of dollars to go to the town for medical treatment, and we can't get it."
Now she understands that the people in Longxi Village are generally poor, just like Aunt Genzi's family, there is food or something, but it is impossible to come up with money or something, and it is impossible to come up with tens of hundred and eight yuan.
In front of me, I only found a daughter-in-law for my two children last year, and the bride price cost a lot of money, and now it may be difficult for them to get ten yuan, let alone dozens of yuan.
"Auntie, let's go, let's go see Uncle."
"Okay, I'm sorry for you."
Su Dongli smiled and followed Yu Guiqin to her house soon.
"Da Chun, I invited Su Yatou and asked him to show you."
Su Dachun, who was lying on the kang, nodded, and a smile appeared on his dark face.
"Girl, I'm sorry for you."
"No trouble."
As he spoke, Su Dongli walked to the side of the kang, asked about some basic information, and carefully checked his broken leg.
"The problem is not very big, there are no fractures but some bone cracks, auntie, you go back with me to get some medicine, it won't take long to recover, but I just want to do heavy work for a month or two."
"Well, good."
Yu Guiqin followed her home, she prepared a few herbs, handed them to her, and explained how to use them.
"Girl, thank you, my aunt doesn't have much money now, you have two yuan for you."
"Auntie, I won't accept the money, I'm here to help, your life is not easy now, you still keep the money."
"This..."
Yu Guiqin hesitated a little, and Su Dongli continued; "I'm not a doctor, I'm just helping, so who helps and collects money? Auntie, you better hurry up and take the medicine back to your uncle, so that he can recover sooner. ”
"Thank you then."
Sent Yu Guiqin away.
Su Dongli returned to the kitchen and cleaned the pots and chopsticks that had not had time to be brushed just now.
Su Dongcheng's family next door, they also heard about Zhang Xiaosan's family today.
"Dongcheng, I think it was the dead girl next door who poisoned me, otherwise how could I suddenly get sick?"
"In the past, she didn't admit that she knew how to heal, but now the whole village knows that she learned medical skills from a master, it must be her, you must get justice for me."
Since the last time she returned to the village, Tian Xiaocui has not gone out much, firstly to recuperate, and secondly, because she is afraid of being ridiculed by the villagers when she goes out, after all, everyone in the village knows that she is a demon and makes herself angry.
Su Dongcheng didn't speak, why didn't he want to go for trouble?
It's just that the current Su Dongli is not a soft persimmon, and the two consecutive warnings are still echoing in his ears, especially now that he knows that she really understands medical skills, in case Tian Xiaocui's matter is really done by her, and she is anxious, will she secretly attack herself?
When the time comes, if you don't talk about your own crimes, you will have to spend a lot of money.
"You're talking, aren't you?"
Tian Xiaocui waited for a long time and saw that Su Dongcheng didn't let go of a fart, and roared angrily.
"What's the hurry? Now go and you want her to give me a little too? Wait, there will be opportunities later. ”
Su Dongcheng threw out a sentence impatiently.
……
Five days later, Zhang Xiaosan returned to his previous appearance, and like no one else, everyone in the village praised Su Dongli's medical skills.
At the same time, Su Dachun, who had been bedridden, was able to get out of bed after using her medicine, although he still had to walk on crutches, but it was much better than a few days ago.
The two shots had such a significant effect that the people in the village had already regarded her as a doctor, and occasionally had a headache and brain fever, they all went directly to Su Dongli, and almost no longer went to Ding's house in the north of the village to buy medicine.
