Chapter 14: A Master of Nonsense
After a hasty meal, Mingyue followed the master to Zhang Langzhong's house, Zhang Langzhong beckoned the two to the main hall and just sat down, the old man Ming couldn't wait to ask, "Zhang Langzhong, what happened to the young master of the Xu family's legs?" Can there be a cure? ”
Zhang Langzhong shook his head with a disappointed face and said, "The patella is shattered, and the fracture is significantly displaced, I'm afraid it will be difficult to stand up." ”
Old man Ming didn't understand these professional terms, it was difficult to stand up when he heard it, his body shook, and Mingyue also frowned, if it was just a comminuted fracture of the patella, it would be easy to treat, but the fracture was obviously displaced, and I was afraid that surgery would have to be done.
In the previous life, such an injury was not a problem for Mingyue, a small operation, plus reasonable recuperation and rehabilitation, was solved, but here, it made Mingyue a little embarrassed, not to mention that there was no equipment, even if it was to operate on someone's leg, people might not be willing.
Mingyue was thinking about it, so she still had Uncle Zhang's help in this matter, but Mingyue didn't plan to let others know, and when it was only herself and Uncle Zhang, she would find a way to talk.
Old Man Ming followed Zhang Langzhong with a few polite words, and then planned to leave, Mingyue was immersed in her own thoughts, and she didn't come back to her senses until Old Man Ming called her.
Old Man Ming had already gotten up and was about to go out, Mingyue hurriedly said, "Master, go back first, I'll follow Uncle Zhang to flip through the medical books again to see if there is a way." ”
Old Man Ming sighed lightly and said, "Okay, then I'll go back first, thank you Zhang Langzhong." ”
Zhang Langzhong got up and saluted back, "Uncle Ming doesn't have to be polite, I'm ashamed that I can't help anything, you go slowly." ”
When the old man Ming left, at this time, Mrs. Zhang came to the main hall with tea, and saw that the old man Ming had left, put down the tea, and sighed lightly, "This old couple of the Ming family is also really, Ming Shilang is not a material for reading, but he insists on sending him to the school, he can't pass the exam at such an age, and now he still causes such a thing." ”
Mingyue thought of the fourth uncle in the prison, and argued with some distress, "My fourth uncle is an honest man, I'm afraid that the young master of the Xu family provoked him, so the fourth uncle who provoked him to beat people." ”
Zhang Langzhong frowned and said, "Then the young master of the Xu family is not a young master like a squire bully, I am afraid that someone deliberately provoked this matter." ”
Listening to Uncle Zhang's words, Mingyue couldn't help frowning, could it be that someone wanted to target the fourth uncle? Or did someone target the young master of the Xu family and use the fourth uncle as a gunman?
However, Mingyue was not present at the time, and she didn't know the situation at that time, and she analyzed it in her heart for a long time, but she couldn't think of a reason, so she finally had to give up, and she was thinking about how to tell Uncle Zhang that she could cure the leg of the young master of the Xu family.
At this time, Mrs. Zhang saw that her son and Mingyue were in deep thought, as if thinking about things, so she got up and said, "I'll go to the kitchen to have a look, and the girl will stay here for dinner before leaving." ”
Mingyue was not polite, and nodded with a smile.
Seeing Grandma Zhang leave and go to the kitchen, Mingyue proposed, "Uncle Zhang, let's go and look through the medical skills, maybe we can find out what to do." ”
Zhang Langzhong saw Mingyue's hopeful expression, and couldn't bear to hit Mingyue again, so he took Mingyue to the pharmacy.
When he arrived at the pharmacy, Zhang Langzhong walked behind his desk and began to rummage through the large pile of bamboo slips on the bookshelf behind him.
Mingyue organized the wording in her heart before she spoke, "Uncle Zhang, in fact, I have a way to heal the leg of the young master of the Xu family. ”
"What?" Zhang Langzhong actually heard what Mingyue said clearly, but he couldn't believe it, and reconfirmed it uncertainly, always feeling that he had heard it wrong, how could this girl cure her legs?
Mingyue looked at Uncle Zhang, who turned his head and looked at him uncertainly, and said again, "I have a way to heal the leg of the young master of the Xu family." ”
Zhang Langzhong looked at Mingyue this time, he was very sure that he had heard correctly, he couldn't help frowning, a little puzzled, and then opened his mouth to scold, "Don't mess around." ”
The corners of Mingyue's eyes twitched slightly, and she continued to recite the rhetoric she had just thought of, "I have a mysterious master who has taught me many things, and medical skills are one of them. ”
Zhang Langzhong stared at Mingyue with wide eyes, and said with some disbelief, "Why have I never heard of it?" ”
Mingyue pretended to sigh and said, "Master, his old man has been in seclusion for many years, and he doesn't want people to know about his existence, let alone expose the skills I have learned, for fear of causing trouble, so I ......"
To enhance her credibility, Mingyue continued, "There is a cave on the side of Daliang Mountain, and once I accidentally went there, and I met the master who passed by here and settled in that cave, and after that, I often went there to receive Master's teachings. ”
Zhang Langzhong remembered Mingyue's skillful emergency treatment when Mingyang was injured last time, and remembered her ability to learn without a teacher when she read medical books, and instantly felt that Mingyue's words were somewhat credible, and asked curiously, "What is your master's name?" ”
Mingyue's eyes flashed, and she continued to talk nonsense, "He doesn't want to tell me, it's better to say that I don't know, lest I accidentally spread it and cause trouble for him." ”
Zhang Lang had already begun to believe in the center, and continued to ask, "His old man is still in Daliang Mountain?" ”
Mingyue pretended to be sad and said, "Some time ago, I said that I was going out to travel all over the world, so I didn't want to look for him, and I don't know where he is now." ”
Zhang Langzhong was a little disappointed, listening to Mingyue, he still wanted to see him, it seemed that he had no chance, but he remembered that the girl said that he could cure the leg of the young master of the Xu family, so his eyes lit up, and he looked at Mingyue expectantly, "You said that the young master Xu's leg injury can be cured?" How to treat it? ”
Finally fooled Uncle Zhang, Mingyue breathed a sigh of relief, seeing Uncle Zhang looking at herself expectantly, Mingyue began to come one by one, how to treat Young Master Xu's legs.
After listening to what Mingyue said, Zhang Langzhong looked at Mingyue in surprise and said, "This, this is too dangerous, this one is not good, you will lose too much blood and die, and this cut the bone, what should I do if the wound is inflamed?" It's too risky, if the leg injury is not healed, it will be troublesome to cure the young master of the Xu family to death. ”
Mingyue knew that here, surgery was not so easy to accept, even Uncle Zhang, who loved to study medical skills, couldn't accept it for a while.
"Uncle Zhang, my master's ability is great, in order to teach me, but I saw with my own eyes that the master cured a rabbit with a broken leg, and it was as lively as before the injury."
Uncle Zhang looked at Mingyue excitedly, "What you said is true?" ”
Mingyue said with a smile, "Of course it's true, I can still use this to deceive Uncle Zhang, otherwise let's try our hands on animals first?" ”
Uncle Zhang nodded in response, "Yes, let's find a rabbit to try first." "There was excitement on my face.
Mingyue said a little embarrassedly, "But we still have to prepare the tools we have to take advantage of first." Mingyue was embarrassed to continue talking, she was poor and white, and she really couldn't prepare this surgical instrument.
Seeing Mingyue's cramped expression, Uncle Zhang understood a thing or two, and said, "You don't have to worry about this, you say what you need, I'll just prepare." ”
Mingyue continued to cramped, "These tools need to be specially made, preferably made of sterling silver. ”
Uncle Zhang said with a smile, "Don't worry, although your Uncle Zhang is not very rich, but he has saved a lot of money by practicing medicine over the years, you just need to say what you need." ”
Hearing Uncle Zhang say this, Mingyue felt even more embarrassed, and said, "It's always troublesome Uncle Zhang, Yue'er is really embarrassed." ”
Uncle Zhang looked at the bright moon in front of him, and had an idea in his heart, so he said, "Since I feel embarrassed, I don't have children with your Aunt Zhang, if you don't dislike it, you can call me a father-in-law, and it can be regarded as fulfilling my dream of having children with Aunt Zhang and Grandma Zhang, what do you think?" ”
Mingyue thought in her heart, she owed Uncle Zhang so much, and since she recognized Uncle Zhang as her father-in-law, she was Uncle Zhang's daughter-in-law, and it would be considered complete if she could do her filial piety for Uncle Zhang as a child in the future.
So Mingyue bowed down in front of Uncle Zhang, "Father-in-law, please accept Yue'er's worship." ”
Seeing Mingyue agree, Uncle Zhang showed a happy smile in his heart, and quickly pulled Mingyue to get up, and said, "Put this matter aside, wait until I see your family, discuss with your family and then worship your father-in-law, you talk about it first, what tools are needed, let's find a way to cure the leg of the young master of the Xu family first." ”
Mingyue was no longer polite, and said to Uncle Zhang, "You wait for me." With that, he ran out and went to the kitchen to find some half-burned charcoal.
Uncle Zhang looked at the charcoal in Mingyue's hand and didn't know why, Mingyue said embarrassedly, "I don't know how to use a brush, can Uncle Zhang find me a piece of paper?" ”
The rice paper here is very precious, and ordinary people basically can't afford to use it, followed by kraft paper, and then bamboo slips.
Uncle Zhang found a piece of rice paper behind the bookshelf and handed it to Mingyue, who took the charcoal and began to draw lightly on the rice paper.
Uncle Zhang looked at the various utensils on the paper curiously, it was really strange, and then looked at the quantity, the corners of his eyes twitched, so many of them have to be made of sterling silver, it is really not a small amount, no wonder this month girl said it, her face was cramped and embarrassed.
When Mingyue was almost finished, a piece of paper was basically full, almost ten kinds, in fact, Mingyue only drew with the necessary tools needed for the operation, and confirmed them one by one, there was nothing missing, so he put down the charcoal in his hand and said with a smile, "That's all." ”
Zhang Langzhong picked up the piece of rice paper on the desk, looked at it carefully, and said, "Okay, I'll go to the city tomorrow to find a master to type it out." Then he frowned again and asked, "How big is this?" ”
Mingyue really doesn't know the size measurement unit here, and said with some embarrassment, "I'll go with Uncle Zhang tomorrow, let me say I can't tell how big it is, and I'll just compare it directly when the time comes." ”
Zhang Lang knew in the center that this girl probably didn't understand the size, so he nodded in response.
