Old man Li is a subordinate of the Protector Mansion, and he knows very well how the illness of the Protector Prince's illness has improved.

So for this, the divine doctor is not asking for help, but begging her to borrow the carriage, hating iron is not steel, so there is that reminder.

Hearing this, the old man turned his head to look at Xu Qingyan, with a hint of struggle in his eyes.

The girl had said she was a doctor, but he didn't believe it.

Now he doesn't believe it either, but since this old brother also says that she is a good doctor, let's try....

The old man hesitated for a moment, and finally stepped forward and bowed to Xu Qingyan and said, "If the girl really has medical skills, please save the child." ”

Seeing that the old man was sincere in his attitude, Xu Qingyan didn't care about the previous coldness, and nodded happily.

The old man breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that she didn't care about her past suspicions.

Xu Qingyan looked at Sun Cheng lying on the stretcher, frowned slightly, turned her head to look around, and found that behind her was the woman's home.

"That's your house, right?" Xu Qingyan pointed to the house.

The old man nodded.

"Then carry the wounded back first."

When the old man heard this, he hurriedly beckoned the two men to carry Sun Cheng back to his home on the high slope.

After they settled Sun Cheng properly, Xu Qingyan spoke: "Okay, you guys go out, and I'll take care of the rest." ”

When the old man and the woman heard this, they said nothing, but immediately withdrew.

Many doctors don't like people to watch, and they know this rule.

After they went out, Xu Qingyan began to treat Sun Cheng, first to stop the bleeding, then to clear the wound, and finally to apply medicine to bandage.

She moved quickly and steadily, and after everything was ready, she used her divine sense to check whether there were any injuries elsewhere on Sun Cheng's body.

After seeing that there was no problem elsewhere, he opened the door.

All the action adds up, but it doesn't take more than half an hour.

When the door opened, the woman and the old man hurried in.

"The wound has been taken care of, you can go in."

When the two heard this, they didn't have time to say anything, so they rushed in.

After entering, he looked at the strip of white cloth tied to Sun Cheng's head.

I saw that the cloth belt on his wound was also as clean as new, and there was no blood oozing out.

The old man and the woman were excited at the same time.

Blood.... It really stopped.

Great, great, Chengzi's fate has been saved.

After the two were happy, they remembered that their benefactor was still outside the door, and they hurriedly ran out again.

Coming out of the room, the two immediately looked towards Xu Qingyan and knelt down with a plop: "Thank you, girl, thank you girl for saving Chengzi's life." ”

Xu Qingyan was taken aback, and hurriedly stepped forward to help them up: "You two don't need to make this big gift, please get up quickly." ”

Seeing the two of them get up, Xu Qingyan said again: "Although the uncle's wound has been treated, don't get wet for seven days." ”

"And he lost too much blood this time, eat more good food in the near future, and make up for his body well, so that he can recover quickly."

The old man and the woman nodded their heads.

After this toss, it was almost noon.

Seeing this, the old man warmly greeted the guests: "Let's eat a few people here for lunch, and I'll ask the dog to make a few good dishes." ”

Xu Qingyan thought that the matter of pearl powder had not been resolved, so she nodded in response.

Seeing this, the woman was so happy that she hurried to the kitchen, and before entering, she took the dried fish dried under the eaves.

Xu Qingyan motioned for Lingxian and Zelan to come with her to help, and the two girls entered the kitchen in response.

Half an hour later, lunch was ready.

Because of the large number of people, it was impossible to sit in the house, so lunch was placed in the courtyard.

On the small wooden table, a plate of stewed fish, a plate of braised fish pieces, and a plate of small green vegetables are the best hospitality meals for this fisherman.

The old man warmly beckoned them to pick up the vegetables, but he rarely used his chopsticks, only single-mindedly pulling the white and yellow brown rice in the bowl.

Looking at the rice in their bowls, and then at the white rice in their bowls, Xu Qingyan finally couldn't help it and asked the questions that she had been unable to figure out.

"Uncle, do you make a living from pearl diving?"

Old man Sun took the chopsticks in his hand, and he didn't understand why she was asking this

"Well, I've been doing this since I beat my grandfather."

"If that's the case, then why....?" Xu Qingyan pointed to the thatched house behind her: "It stands to reason that the selling price of pearls is so high, you should live well." ”

Although it was a bit rude to ask this question, she really wanted to know where the root cause was.

Hearing this, Old Man Sun put down his chopsticks, looked at Lijiang in the distance, and let out a long sigh.

"The girl doesn't know, although the pearl price is high, but pearl diving is not easy, not every time you go out of the river, you can get something."

"Sometimes if you're lucky, you can pick pearls, and sometimes if you're unlucky, you might get hurt if you don't just run in vain."

"When you're lucky, you can save half a catty to a catty of pearls a month, and it's only ten taels of silver when you exchange them for silver."

"We don't have any land, and the money we get from selling pearls is basically used to exchange it for rice."

"In addition to buying rice and grain, you have to set aside a part for emergencies, pearl diving is extremely dangerous, and the money is used to save lives after injury."

"Oh, I see!" Xu Qingyan nodded, and then the tone changed, "Is a pound of pearls only sold for ten taels of silver?" ”

When I think of rouge shop, one or two pearl powder will cost twelve taels, and the gap is so big!

That's more than 10 times over

If the selling price can be increased, their lives will be much better.

The old man sighed again when he heard this, "Who says it's not, every two months, merchants come here to buy pearls, and at first we were not satisfied with this price, and we even took pearls to the city to inquire about the price." ”

"However, after inquiring about many shops, they are only willing to buy them for ten taels and one catties."

"We know that they cost twelve taels of pearl powder, but there is no other way, except for those merchants, no one outside comes here to buy pearls."

"Merchants from other places who want to buy pearls have gone to the unemployed city two hundred miles away, which is close to the sea, and the pearls are large in number and size."

Xu Qingyan couldn't help but sigh when she heard this, it turned out that there was a city near the sea not far away, could it be that they were so suppressed.

"Girl, the consultation fee for the child has not been given yet, I don't know this consultation fee..."

Xu Qingyan came back to her senses and said, "No need, this table is enough." ”

If this is a rich and noble family, she will definitely not refuse, but in the situation of the Sun family, where can she bear to accept the medical fee.

Although Sun Cheng's injuries were healed, he bled too much and needed to eat and not be nutritious in the later stage.

When the old man heard this, his attitude was firm: "How can this be done, the consultation fee is the consultation fee, and the rice is the rice, these are two different things." ”

Keeping people to eat is a courtesy, and the consultation fee is naturally not less.

saw that the old man's face was resolute, as if she looked down on him if she didn't accept it.

Xu Qingyan had no choice but to say helplessly: "Then give Shiwen." ”

"Shiwen, this is also less, the girl doesn't want to..."

Xu Qingyan hurriedly intercepted his words. "A lot, that medicine was picked by myself and made by myself, so it was sold cheaply."

The old man was relieved when he heard this, and then he was curious: "The girl is not from the neighborhood, why did she come to our village, is there something or is she looking for someone?" ”

Xu Qingyan said with a smile: "There is something, I have to ask my husband about this matter." ”

"Oh, what's the matter, girl, tell me, old man see if there's anything that can help." 2k reading web
