Chapter 10: Sister

Dr. Chen still came to the house to see Zhangzhu, and although Zhangzhu had woken up, it did not get much better. The body is still weak, and I have to catch my breath if I can't say a few words.

Dr. Chen's ability is limited, so he carefully checked the pulse of the palm beads, and left medicine for his resignation. Zhu Niangzi went to get the medicine for Zhangzhu and asked Zhiqiu to decoction it.

Zhu Niangzi went to talk back to Zhang, and Zhang asked Zhu Niangzi how much she spent on the consultation fee and medicine, and Zhu Niangzi said, "I used nine cents of silver." ”

Zhang was not very happy when he heard this: "I don't know how long this medicine will stop when I can take it." ”

Zhu Niangzi hurriedly said: "Doctor Chen may not come to the door again." ”

Zhang Shi was surprised and said, "Why? ”

Zhu Niangzi hurriedly said: "Doctor Chen said that he can't be cured, if you want the girl to be good, you have to ask Dr. Yao from the security hall to take a look." ”

Zhang's brows furrowed even tighter when he heard this: "Baoan Hall? The doctor there costs five dollars for a consultation, and the medicine is more expensive than anywhere else, but he can't afford to take his medicine. ”

Zhu Niangzi naturally knew that the Zhang family was unwilling to give this money to the eldest girl's medical treatment, and she felt pity for Zhangzhu in her heart, so she had to help Zhangzhu speak: "Madam, the medicine in Baoantang is a little expensive, but it works." Maybe after eating a few pairs, the eldest girl's illness will be cured. ”

"How many pairs? I'm afraid that if I want to eat it, my family will go bankrupt. I'll just say that she's very bad and unlucky. The old man shouldn't have picked her up in the first place. Zhang began to chatter.

Zhu Niangzi didn't know how many times she heard this, she felt in her heart that the palm beads were hard, and the calamities in her life continued, and she didn't know what would happen in the future, but she had to deal with the past in front of her. However, the housemother refused to pay, and she naturally couldn't come up with more money to see a doctor for Zhangzhu.

Zhiqiu boiled the medicine and brought it to the palm beads, and then sent it to the palm beads after blowing it cool.

Zhangzhu drank it in a big gulp, the taste of the medicine was a little wrong, it was not as bitter as the previous two days, and it seemed that the recipe had been adjusted.

She drank the medicine in a big gulp, handed the medicine bowl to Zhiqiu, and reached out to ask Zhiqiu for a prescription.

Zhiqiu said: "Fangzi is what my mother collected, do you want the eldest girl to look at it?" ”

Zhangzhu nodded.

Zhiqiu went to her mother to ask for a prescription, and soon, the prescription was in the palm bead's hand. Dr. Chen's handwriting was a little illegible, but she could understand the scribbled prescriptions after learning from her mother for a few years.

The above prescription is just some warm and tonic Taiping medicine, and the medicine is all cheap, and it can't kill people, and of course it can't cure her disease.

After seeing that she had taken Fang Zi by herself, she asked Zhiqiu, "When will Dr. Chen come to see me?" ”

Zhiqiu didn't dare to hide it, and said bluntly: "Big girl, Doctor Chen said that he was not coming, so let Mrs. invite the doctor from the security hall to come." ”

"Baoantang? Is the doctor in the security hall very skilled? ”

Zhiqiu nodded and said, "Everyone in the county knows that the doctor in Baoantang is very good at treating diseases, and I heard that the doctor who sat in the clinic also once served in the Tai Hospital, and he is very skilled. ”

"Dr. Yao?!" Zhangzhu couldn't remember what imperial doctor she knew surnamed Yao.

"Well, this Dr. Yao is the signboard of the security hall, and the consultation fee is also frighteningly high, and our family probably can't afford it."

If you can't afford to hire a doctor, do you just let your body deteriorate day by day, until you run out of oil and end your life? Zhang's slamming the door is also ruthless. I can't rely on others, and now it seems that I can only rely on myself. Anyway, her maternal grandfather was also a famous doctor back then, her mother not only won the inheritance of her grandfather, she was the holy hand of gynecology, she also followed her mother to study medicine for several years, and she also had her grandfather's personal fingers, and she was proficient in medical science. At this moment, it doesn't matter if any healer doesn't heal himself, now the only one who can save himself is himself.

Zhangzhu and Zhiqiu said, "Go and get a pen and paper." ”

Zhiqiu didn't know why, but he still listened to Zhangzhu's instructions to get a pen and paper, and then grind ink. Zhangzhu asked Zhiqiu to find a thick book for padding, and she picked up a pen and wrote on the paper. Somehow, the hand holding the pen trembled, and I couldn't read the words I wrote. First, her body is very weak, and secondly, she still doesn't adapt to this body. Before he could write two words, a few drops of ink quickly spread on the snow-white paper, becoming two ink flowers. This piece of paper is wasted. Zhiqiu hurriedly offered it again, and wrote it with his palm bead bowed, and the handwriting was crooked like the writing of a newly enlightened child.

But this time it was not in vain, she prepared a prescription. Medicine money, it is impossible to ask Zhang's to get medicine money. There was nothing else on her, and her palm touched the gold ring on her hand.

At the beginning, Song Jinfei and the others still had a conscience and took away her dowry, but did not take away the ring on her hand, which was a relic of the woman in red's mother, and the woman in red cherished it very much. But now that it's a last resort, take this ring to exchange it for some money, and the woman in red agrees.

Zhangzhu took off the ring on his finger, handed it to Zhiqiu along with the prescription, and instructed: "Take this prescription to buy a pair of medicines, and use this for the medicine money." ”

Zhiqiu took the ring, she looked at the palm beads in confusion, and asked, "Big girl, this is what the eldest lady left you, you are the most precious thing, is this to be sold?" ”

"I don't sell it, you can take it to the pawnshop. In the future, when I have enough money, I will redeem it. I have no way back here. You have to keep this matter secret for me, whether it's to get the medicine again or to use it as a ring, you have to do it secretly, don't let others know. ”

Zhiqiu listened in a daze, she felt that something was wrong with the eldest girl, but she couldn't say anything wrong. She glanced at the prescription, quickly understood, and hurriedly asked, "Big girl, where did you copy this prescription?" ”

"It's not clear if the copy of the medical book can be useful, so you have to try it."

Zhiqiu was worried, and secretly said that the eldest girl in her family was not a doctor, what if something went wrong with the prescription in the book.

Seeing that she was hesitating, Zhangzhu urged her: "Go Zhiqiu, I'm afraid I don't have much time left." You can't wait to die like this, you have to find a way. ”

This really worked, Zhiqiu wiped a handful of tears, and hurriedly said: "Don't worry, big girl, the slave will do it for you." ”

Zhangzhu nodded in agreement, and then instructed: "Don't let others know, I don't want to cause any more trouble." ”

The small ring, Zhiqiu took it to the pawnshop, and said that it was exchanged for two taels of silver. Then I went to the pharmacy to help Zhangzhu get the medicine, and the first pharmacy I found looked at the medicine for a long time, and Zhiqiu said: "We don't have the medicine on it, you go to the security hall to have a look." ”

Zhiqiu had no choice but to go to the security hall, and the guy who took the medicine in the security hall took the prescription and quickly prepared the medicine, and then when he calculated the medicine money, he actually spent two dollars of silver. Zhiqiu's flesh hurts.
