Chapter 28 Gradual Change
"Wait!"
Chen Youyi was about to go to the county seat, but was stopped by Mu Xiulian: "What county town are you going to?" I'm an old problem, I'm going to twist it, I don't need to see the doctor, and I spend all that money in vain. ”
You don't need to see a doctor, but you can't afford to pay for it.
Chen Youyi is a little funny and a little sad. The ancients got married early, and Mu Xiulian was only about forty years old, and in modern times, she could only afford Chen Youyi's "sister", but here, the mentality is no longer that young, it is like life is a foregone conclusion, and she does not have any desire to change.
Some modern uncles and aunts seem to be more active than Mu Xiulian and more hopeful about life.
"Don't worry about the silver," Chen Youyi said, "It's all my fault today, if I can be vigilant and not let you fall, this silver should be paid by me." ”
How could Mu Xiulian agree, whether it was to go to the doctor or spend Chen Youyi's money, she couldn't accept it: "No, no, I said no." ”
The situation was at a stalemate, and at this time, Qin Ziheng opened his mouth and said, "The doctor must be invited, and minor illnesses must also be treated." However, it is not easy to go to the county seat these days, first, the heavy snow closes the mountain, and secondly, most of the doctors in the county are reluctant to come to see a doctor. ”
His gaze swept between Mu Xiulian and Chen Youyi, and said: "It's better to go to the county seat first, go to the village elder Sun to see, he has good medical skills, and several villages around here are looking for him." ”
Mu Xiulian was still about to refuse, but was comforted by Qin Ziheng for a few words, but she couldn't resist her son, so she had to give up and agree.
"Okay, I'll go find Sun Lao." Qin Ziheng stayed to take care of Mu Xiulian, Qin Huai was small, and Chen Youyi volunteered to find a doctor.
She inquired about Mr. Sun's address and went to visit. Speaking of which, there is no memory of Sun Lao in the memory of the original owner, it is better to say that after she was demoted, she traveled all the way to such a remote countryside, and lived such a miserable life, but she never got sick.
It's really good, it's good, it's pretty good.
When I arrived at Mr. Sun's house, I saw several people, all of whom were seeing a doctor and taking medicine. These recognized her, apparently nothing, and began to whisper as soon as they turned their heads.
Chen Youyi was a little speechless, just a little small room, no matter how quietly she spoke, others could hear it, isn't this covering her ears and stealing the bell? She didn't debunk it, she smiled and nodded, which was considered to have been said hello.
Soon, it was Chen Youyi's turn, she talked about her condition, and Sun Lao touched her short goatee and nodded.
"The Qin family, she has had a back injury for a few years, and it's all old problems. Listen to your description, it's not very serious, just take some herbs and go back and apply it. ”
Sun Lao sighed and said: "It's not easy for your mother-in-law, pulling the two eldest children, and she has fallen into the root of the disease, so you have to be careful in the future." ”
"That's what you said." Chen Youyi also sighed a little emotionally, this Mu Xiulian was really unlucky, finally the eldest son had a chance, and he was kicked off the clouds again, and the corners of wealth and glory had not yet been touched, and he lived a poor life as a village woman in the countryside again.
Even if you eat more, you have to worry about not having enough to eat for the next meal.
Sun Lao said a few more words, and looked at Chen Youyi's gaze with some relief: "The old man has also heard about your previous things, and when I look at it today, the rumors are too exaggerated, and the countrymen just like to chew the root of their tongue." Go back and honor your mother-in-law, the boss of the Qin family has been a good child since he was a child, and he will definitely be good to you. ”
"Hey, hey, thank you Sun, I know." Chen Youyi could neither refute that those rumors were not exaggerated, they were all facts, nor could she refute that she and Qin Ziheng were innocent and had nothing to do with it, so she had to deal with it with a smile.
After thinking about it for a while, she asked, "Old Sun, can this herb only be applied externally?" Can it be used as a medicinal herb for medicinal baths? Soaking in hot water can also speed up blood circulation and allow the medicine to be absorbed better. ”
"Oh? Do you still understand this? Sun Lao was a little surprised, and soon seemed to think of something, and said, "This is taught by the imperial doctor in the palace." It's not impossible to take a medicinal bath, but in this weather, where is it forbidden to live in the water and soak in it? ”
As long as it works. Chen Youyi said happily: "I have a solution to this problem. Then I'll go back and see it first, thank you Elder Sun, and come back to visit another day. ”
"Go, go." Sun Lao waved his hand and went to fiddle with his medicinal herbs again.
Chen Youyi brought the herbs back, repeated the usage, and said happily: "This can not only take a comfortable bath, but also treat the back injury, the best of both worlds." ”
Because I've already taken a bath today, I'll apply it for the time being. There is only one big man and a small man in the family, and Chen Youyi has to help.
Mu Xiulian couldn't stop it, so she let her go, but she still refused to admit defeat, and said: "It's nothing, I used to take medicine by myself, and if I don't come over, I have a lot to do with you." ”
"Yes, yes, I'm just willing to help you." Chen Youyi evenly smeared the mashed herbs on the wound, and then wrapped them in gauze to prevent the herbs from staining his clothes, and said: "I have caused you so much trouble before, you should charge some interest, and you should call for it." ”
Horizontal and vertical just do a little housework, and it will be done as a weight loss by the way.
Mu Xiulian listened and did not speak.
After that, every day, Chen Youyi helped Mu Xiulian prepare a medicinal bath, and the effect was remarkable in a few days, most of the twisted waist had been healed, and the wind chill had also improved, Mu Xiulian only felt relaxed.
That night, Qin Ziheng sent Chen Youyi back as usual.
After getting along in the past few days, Chen Youyi felt that her initial understanding of Qin Ziheng was a bit one-sided. Qin Ziheng is not usually not talking, but he is often concise and to the point, directly grasping the key points and solving the matter, there is no superfluous nonsense, after a long time, it gives people the illusion of being cold and not liking to talk.
And it looks indifferent on the outside, but that's really because of the looks, and it's not proportional to the personality. In fact, Qin Ziheng is quite approachable, and he will not refuse people thousands of miles away, and some will not even refuse other people's requests.
The previous coldness was really too much done by the original owner, and even his biological father couldn't bear it, and he couldn't expect a husband who was assigned to marry to endure it.
Like now, just by changing a little, the Qin family gradually changed their attitude towards her, and they no longer had the disgust that they couldn't hide when they saw her as before.
"Yesterday my mother talked about you." Qin Ziheng seemed to mention it inadvertently, and said in a flat tone: "She said that it was thanks to you for saving her that day and worrying a lot about her illness that she could get better so quickly." ”
Chen Youyi couldn't help but be happy, this is the first effect? The sooner she makes up for the debt of the original owner, she can also be free sooner.
"Really? Your mother wouldn't say such a thing in front of me. She smiled: "I am satisfied to know that she is willing to accept me, I owe her too much before, I hope I can make her happy now." ”
