Chapter 15: Grass and crucian carp

The mother and son were safe, Mrs. Lan helped clean up, got the happy money, and left happily. Xu looked at the crumpled and thin child in his arms and cried with joy.

"Erjin, you have a son!" Xu muttered. It is a kind of consolation, but also a kind of hope.

The three younger ones hugged to the side of the bed and looked at their younger brother happily, only Du Mei looked at Xu's miserable and transparent face, and frowned.

"1 tael of silver." In the hall, Zhong Yu said lightly.

"You can just grab it alive! If you just take a needle and prick it twice, you will need 1 tael of silver, whose silver money is picked up in vain when it rains in the sky! As soon as Zhou heard this, she blew up the pot, her flesh hurt, and the money will be her sons' in the future.

"Otherwise, I won't take any money, just give you a prick at will. Do you want to be dizzy or have weakness in your limbs? Zhong Yu lifted his eyelids lightly and glanced at Zhou.

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the room was stunned. This is ruthless, a silver needle can both save lives and kill!

"I'm not sick, what a prick." Zhou was a little afraid, her voice was lowered, and her body shrank back.

"Go get it!" Du Shicheng waved his hand, he coughed hard, but the smoke pot still didn't leave his hand.

"That's giving birth to a child, clearly giving birth to a debt collector." Wei muttered, and reluctantly went to the back room to get the money.

Zhou pulled out her legs to keep up, but was frozen in place by her mother-in-law's fierce eye knife, and she had to retreat to the hall in a daze.

"Uncle, I advise you, smoke less or no cigarettes, you can't afford to spend this body." Zhong Yu put away the small pillow for pulse diagnosis.

"Hey, I've been smoking for decades, I'm used to it, it's like my old buddy, and I'm reluctant." Du Shicheng caressed the shiny cigarette stick.

Zhong Yu sighed almost inaudibly, his body belonged to someone else. He's just a healer, it's his duty to remind, and if he can't do it, he's really helpless.

After collecting the scattered consultation fees, Zhong Yu picked up the medical box, didn't say much, nodded slightly and came out.

"Sir......" Du Mei deliberately waited at the gate of the courtyard.

"What's wrong with your mother?" Zhong Yu looked at the thin girl in front of him suspiciously.

"My mother is fine now, she's asleep. You've checked her pulse, but what's wrong with her, is she in serious condition? Du Mei's eyes were red again.

"Your mother's health is fine, but this time there is a big deficit, take care of it, and it will get better slowly." Zhong Yu turned his face away and didn't look at Du Mei, just stared at a big poplar tree outside the courtyard with bare leaves.

"I see, thanks." Du Mei held back her tears and bent her knees to bless.

"Has your mother fed her baby?" Zhong Yu asked more, looking at the pulse, he also knew that Xu's had not reached the month of production.

"My mother...... My mother doesn't seem to have milk. Du Mei said quietly, she was a little shy to say this in front of a man, but this man was the doctor who had just saved her mother and brother, and she was calm.

"You come with me back to the infirmary to get some grass." Zhong Yu has no waves in the ancient well.

"But I don't have any money." Du Mei wrung her fingers in embarrassment.

"I'll give it back when you have it later." Zhong Yu wanted to say, don't want money. But the girl in front of me is probably not the same as her grandmother and aunt, and she doesn't want to take people's things for nothing.

"Really?" Du Mei's eyes burst with surprise.

Zhong Yu bowed his head slightly, only to feel that this girl was smiling, as if the sky and the earth were colorful, even the sunset on the horizon was inferior, and he couldn't help but move the curvature of the corners of his mouth.

Along the way, Dr. Zhong Yu, who is usually indifferent and detached, actually taught Du Mei some food tonic recipes for the first time. When he arrived at the hospital, he not only gave Du Mei Tong grass, but also wrapped some red dates and wolfberry astragalus to replenish blood and qi.

When Du Mei hurriedly returned to Dujiagou, it was already dark.

"Shhhhh Du Shu hid behind the big poplar tree, anxious but lowered his voice.

"Brother Shu, what are you doing here at such a late hour?" Du Mei suddenly hugged the black girl who ran to her and stroked it gently.

"Give!" Du Shu stretched out a long bunch of crucian carp pierced by willow branches to Du Mei's eyes.

"Great, where did this come from?" Du Mei asked in surprise. Zhong Yu said that crucian carp soup is the most milky. She was still wondering where to fish in the winter.

"I caught it in the saliva hole in the fish's mouth." Du Shu touched the back of his head embarrassedly.

"It's such a cold day, Brother Shu, thank you so much." Du Mei choked up a little when he thought of the coldness of his family.

"Meizi, Meizi, don't do this. Actually, it was the black girl who found out first, I just scooped the water dry and picked up the ready-made, really. Du Shu saw that Su Mei was sad and cramped, and he also reached out to touch the black girl's head.

"I'll go to Yuzui tomorrow too." Du Mei put the black chick down and took the crucian carp.

"Okay, tomorrow I will go with my father to cut reeds and grass on the beach of Yuzuikou, and you will come to me then. You go back quickly, my aunt must be in a hurry. Du Shu took the black girl away, and the black girl looked back at Du Mei step by step.

Du Mei wiped the wet corners of her eyes and waved her hand in the shadows.
