Chapter 21: Prosperous Hangzhou Mansion (3)

Li Gui said: "My father is not here, I'll take you there, there are no customers in the store anyway." There was a Lu Langzhong on the street in front of him, who was very good at treating external injuries. ”

"Okay, then there's work." Pepper nodded in acknowledgement.

Li Gui walked out of the counter and stepped forward to show them the way.

He walked out from behind the counter, and Shen Yiyi found that his clothes were too ill-fitting, almost all of them were shortened, his elbows and ankles were all exposed, and his shoes were torn holes, and his thumb poked out of the holes as soon as he walked.

It seems that the business of this shop is not very good, and they are so poor that they have no money to make new clothes for their children...... I think she never dressed like this even if she was living on the streets. Shen Yiyi sighed slightly and followed with Little Pepper.

Don't look at this foot shop is deserted, walk a few steps to the north and step out of the path, that is, the north closes the door, and there is an endless stream of people coming and going from the south to the north, and it is very lively. So the location of this foot shop is very good, occupying a favorable location, how can there be no business? Could it be that the cook's skills are too poor? Shen Yiyi was a little puzzled.

Soon to the street in front, there is a medical hall on the street, the faΓ§ade is not small, on the signboard on the black background, the three big characters of "Jishitang" are very eye-catching.

Li Gui pointed to the medical hall and said to Shen Yiyi and Xiao Pepper: "There is a homemade plaster in the medical hall of Lu Langzhong, which is transferred to treat external injuries and pasted on the wound, and it will be fine in a few days." ”

There are a lot of people in and out of this medical hall, they stood at the door for a while, and saw that many patients came out with plasters, and they could hear cured patients praising Lu Langzhong's medical skills, Xiao Pepper nodded secretly, and pulled Shen Yiyi: "Miss, this is it." ”

Li Gui said crampedly: "I won't go in, there is no one in the store." ”

As he spoke, he kept his head down, trying to retract his exposed thumb into his shoe.

Shen Yiyi glanced at it a few times and said, "Thank you, little brother, when I finish the injury, I will go to your store to find you." ”

Li Gui nodded, turned around and ran.

"They're really poor, like tenants in the country." Little Pepper muttered.

There are so many poor people that they can be found everywhere, but when they don't see it with their own eyes, they don't feel it. Shen Yiyi sighed slightly, but couldn't help laughing: "Why should we pity people, they still have a store, and the little silver we only have is borrowed." ”

Knowing that she is poor, she can still laugh, and the young lady is really heartless. Little Pepper rolled her eyes and dragged her into the hospital.

As soon as they entered the medical hall, a young apprentice greeted them, and after briefly inquiring about Shen Yiyi's injuries, they led them to Lu Langzhong.

Lu Langzhong checked Shen Yiyi's injuries everywhere, checked her pulse again, and said: "It's all skin trauma, it's not a big deal, it's just that this wound on the face is a bit tricky, you have to take care of it carefully, beware of scars." ”

Is it possible to get a scar? This damn robber! Shen Yiyi scolded a few times and asked, "Lang Zhong, do you need medicine?" ”

"Naturally, you have to use it." Lang Zhong replied, "Our medical center has its own plasters for the treatment of external injuries. ”

There is a saying that Hubei people are bold and don't ask the price when buying things, but Shen Yiyi, a Hubei person from ancient times, had to ask the price because of his poor ambition: "How much is a pair of plasters, and how much do you need to apply to get better?" ”

"The wounds on your face and the back of your hands are so slender that you can share a pair of plasters and cut them open with clean scissors. The wound on the neck is almost healed, and there is no need for plasters, just apply some gold sore medicine. Lu Langzhong said: "The gold sore medicine is a bottle of silver or two, and it should be cured with one bottle; One plaster is 300 Wen, change it once every three days, you can buy two stickers first, if it is not well after six days, come to me again. ”

One tael of silver plus two three hundred wen, a total of one tael and six hundred wen?! So expensive?! She rented a house in Fuyang County for a year, and it was only five taels of silver! Where is this cure, this is money grabbing! Shen Yiyi was about to fry her hair, but suddenly caught a glimpse of Xiao Pepper's expression and did not change, so she quickly restrained her emotions, so as not to expose the filling, after all, she was an "outsider".

She thought about it for a while, and asked Xiao Pepper in a low voice: "Wuchang Mansion is also so expensive to see a doctor?" ”

When "Shen Yiyi" was in Wuchang Mansion, she was a daughter, and it was normal to think that she didn't know the price of medical treatment.

Sure enough, Xiao Pepper did not doubt him, and also replied to her in a low voice: "Miss, the price of seeing a doctor in Wuchang Mansion is also this price, and Langzhong, who is a little better, asks for an expensive price, because the consultation fee is included in it." ”

It turned out that in this era, seeing a doctor was sky-high, so it was no wonder that the boatman borrowed her two taels of silver in one go. Originally, she thought it was quite beautiful, thinking that after seeing the doctor and treating the injury, there would be at least one or two pieces of silver left, just a small shop, and she started from scratch.

The dream was shattered, Shen Yiyi was lost for a while, and she didn't say anything for a while.

Seeing that she didn't react, Xiao Pepper took out the silver and paid the money, Lu Langzhong took out the gold sore medicine and plaster, and instructed her to put the plaster on Shen Yiyi and apply the gold sore medicine.

When she walked out of the medical hall, Shen Yiyi's face and the back of her hands were covered with plasters, which were very conspicuous, attracting many people's sideways, and Xiao Pepper glared at them while comforting Shen Yiyi: "Miss, it'll be fine in a few days, it's okay." ”

Shen Yiyi had already recovered from her broken dream, slowed down, and looked around: "Where are you selling shoes?" I want to buy a pair of shoes for Li Gui. ”

Just now he said that they are poorer than Li Gui, and they are not qualified to sympathize with him, and they have to buy shoes for others in the blink of an eye? Xiao Pepper is not a person without sympathy, but after listening to Shen Yiyi's words at this time, she just wanted to jump to her feet: "Miss, we only have four hundred Wen left, and we don't know where to live tonight, what shoes to buy!" ”

In a trance, Little Pepper opened her teeth and claws, and became her own appearance, and she was also babbling at Bai Zhe like this, but Bai Zhe still insisted on using the last little money to buy a pair of shoes and give them to the beggars on the side of the road.

Bai Zhe is always so kind, so he has always made her feel that his kindness to her is just an indiscriminate behavior, and she has nothing special about him. It was this kind of "feeling" that made her cowardly, and she never dared to confess to him, making this attachment a permanent regret.

"Let's go see how much the shoes cost, forget if they're too expensive." Shen Yiyi retracted her thoughts and said to Little Pepper.

Little Pepper had to mumble, inquired with passers-by, and took her to Beiguanmen Wazi.

The prosperity of Beiguanmen Wazi far exceeds that of Jiahuimen Wazi, but under the guidance of passers-by, they found a narrow street where stalls are set up on the ground and sell bargains.

Little Pepper squatted on the ground, picked out a pair of cloth shoes, and showed them to Shen Yiyi. It's not a good shoe, the fabric is coarse, the stitches are thick, but it's cheap, only twenty dollars.

Because it was cheap, Little Pepper didn't say much, and said: "I remember the size of Li Gui's feet, let's buy him a bigger one, he is still young, and he wants to grow up." ”

"He's still young? How old are you? Shen Yiyi laughed at her.

Little Pepper replied angrily: "Miss, I'm one year younger than you!" ”

Shen Yiyi smiled dumbly, yes, she has already "rejuvenated", she is only more than fourteen years old this year, and they are all going to grow up.
