Chapter 22: Understanding

After seeing the doctor leave, she turned around and walked to the bed, came to the bedside and carefully observed the people who got out of bed. The clothes on her body were the ready-to-wear clothes she bought at the cloth shop yesterday, made of light blue coarse cotton; The body was all washed yesterday, and it can be seen that this person is still good-looking. His black hair was spread on the pillow, his face was very pale without flushing, his eyes were large but deeply defensive, his nose was high, and he had a white mouth. If you ignore the pale complexion, it's still pretty good. When you grow up, you will never be ugly.

After reading it, she asked him, "If you want to eat, I'll serve it to you." Seeing that he was on guard, he said: "By the way, this is the medical hall, I sent you here when I saw you fainting on the side of the road and had a high fever, my name is Yang Zi." He visibly relaxed a little after hearing her words, but he didn't completely let go of it. Later, Yang Xue heard him say: "Thank you!" When she heard him speak, she said, "Why don't I feed you something, the porridge I just bought is still hot." You must be hungry too, and I've been drinking some water and medicine since yesterday. ”

"Okay, thank you." Probably hungry indeed, he agreed. When Yang Xue saw that he wanted to eat, she went to the table in the house to bring the porridge, and when she felt that the temperature was just right, she fed him spoonful by spoon, and she stopped feeding him after eating most of the bowl. Maybe because he heard the doctor's words just now, he didn't have any other reactions. After feeding him, she felt hungry herself, so she said, "Then you can rest for a while, and I will go and boil medicine for you after eating." Then he didn't care, he sat down at the table and drank the steamed buns and the rest of the porridge he bought.

After eating, there were still some steamed buns left, so I put away the steamed buns and washed the dishes before boiling the medicine. The medicine was boiled yesterday, and there is no need to boil it for a long time, and the medicine will be cured soon. After it was cold for a while, he fed him the medicine and drank it again, and when he saw that he had finished drinking, he said, "You rest first, I'll go and return the porridge bowl, and when I go out for a while, I'll let the doctor pay attention to you, and if you have anything, call them." Seeing him nod, he went out with the bowl.

When Yang Xue came back, she saw that there was no one in the medical hall, but the doctors were already there, thinking that she had heard Doctor Shi say that it might cost a lot of money this time, she walked up to the doctor and asked, "Doctor, I want to ask how much it will cost this time, I'm afraid I don't have enough money." "Well, I'll take a look at it for you." "Okay, I'm sorry for you." After listening to the doctor, she waited on the side.

After a while, Dr. Shi said, "This time it will be more than three taels, but you are also kind enough to accept three taels from you." "I don't have enough on me, or I'll go home and bring it to you later." "Okay, then you can bring it later." Because she basically came here every year to sell medicine, the doctor agreed. Later, she asked, "Doctor, when can he go?" The doctor thought for a moment and said, "If you are not in a hurry, tomorrow, if you are in a hurry, you can do it this afternoon." But do you know where he lives? "I don't know, I'll ask him in a moment. Thank you, Doctor Shi, then I'll go and ask him first. Doctor Shi smiled and didn't speak, just waved his hand at her.

Back in the room, the man was awake, sitting on the bed in a daze, and when he heard her coming back, he turned his head to see that she had turned around again and continued to be in a daze, and still with some precautions. She didn't care about his actions, but she thought to herself: maybe something bad happened to him before, but it had nothing to do with her, she just wanted to ask who he was and where he lived now.

Thinking of this, she asked him, "Your name." What's the name? Where is your home? The doctor said you can go home tomorrow, can you go back by yourself? But she didn't hear him answer for a long time, and she thought he didn't hear it and asked again, but she still didn't hear him answer. Later, she thought of the homeless people on the street before, and then she said, "Are you from Jiangcheng?" The man didn't speak, but he nodded slightly.

After seeing him nod, she didn't know what to say, because she thought that since he came from Jiangcheng and still appeared like this, there was a chance that he would also be a homeless. And no one cares about it like this, maybe there is no family and relatives, otherwise no one cares about why he is sick like this, and no one asks. Later, sure enough, she also confirmed her idea, because he spoke. He said that his name was Li Bokang, and he came from Jiangcheng, and his family was washed away by the flood, leaving him alone. His eyes and voice were a little numb when he said this.

Hearing this, Yang Xue couldn't find anything to say for a while, so she said: "Mourn." But seeing his silence, she said: "You should take good care of yourself, your parents' spirits in heaven are blessing you, you see that you are so dangerous this time or you have been saved, maybe your parents have appeared." Hearing what she said, Li Bokang said: "I know, so I will take good care of myself, and thank you for comforting me, and thank you for saving me." Looking at his serious thanks, Yang Xue was a little embarrassed, but she still said: "It's nothing, I also saved you because I saw that you were pitiful." "But you saved me, didn't you, and I have to thank you anyway." "Alright then, by the way, where do you live? I'll send you back tomorrow. ”

After saying this, the atmosphere began to be silent again, but soon Li Bokang broke the silence, he said: "I only arrived here yesterday, and I haven't found a place to live yet, and I don't know where I can live?" The tone was a little low. Yang Xue didn't know what to do about it, and she walked out again after a moment of silence.

When she came to the lobby of the medical hall, there were already people coming to see the doctor, so she took a look and went out again. After walking around the town, there were still many homeless people, and they silently walked towards the way home. This time, she mainly went back to get money to pay for the medicine in the hospital, and because Li Bokang said before that there was no place to live. Because of him, she remembered the hardships of when she first arrived, when she had no place to live and nothing to eat, only an empty cave. But now everything is fine, she has her own house, money to buy food, and land to grow and eat. Thinking of this, she put aside her bad emotions again, and by this time she had already walked almost half the way, and she hurried back home.

Back at home, the chickens were still eating in the field fenced outside, and there were still a few eggs in the chicken coop. She picked up the eggs from the coop and put them in the basket in the storeroom, and went to the room to take four taels of silver, and went down the mountain. In the past two years, in addition to the fifty taels that she sold at the beginning, she has also saved a few taels of silver, but this time she has to spend almost all the money she saved. Thinking of this, she sighed deeply: Sure enough, there is a price to pay for meddling, but it still saved a life, and the money can earn another life, but there will be no more time. It's just that I don't know if this person is really worth saving, and at present, it seems that people are still okay, not like a liar or something.
