Escape Chapter 38 Healing the Sick and Buying Vegetable Seeds
A middle-aged man walked out of the crowd and said, "Mr. is talking about my family." I wonder what the gentleman commanded? β
Qi Xiaoting said: "I want to prepare a pair of medicines, I need the blood on the head of your big white goose, and the bark on the plane tree, can you lend me a first, and I will be rewarded with a lot of money in the future." β
The middle-aged man said: "Sir, when he said this, he saw the outside, you helped us dig a good sweet well, and we should reward you." Everything you need, we'll give you everything. β
Qi Xiaoting said gratefully: "Thank you!" Then he followed the middle-aged man to his house, killed the big white goose, took the blood from the goose's head, and returned the goose's corpse to the owner; He also stripped the bark of the plane tree on the sunny side, and removed a shaded tile from behind the ridge. The ointment was prepared step by step at home. In the afternoon, she said goodbye to the villagers, took the grain seeds and ointment prepared by the old man for her, and walked towards Lijiazhuang.
After walking for more than ten miles, Lijiazhuang arrived. Sure enough, I saw a notice posted on the door of the old rich man Li, and there were many onlookers, but no one dared to reveal it.
Qi Xiaoting pushed aside everyone, stepped forward, and took down the notice.
The housekeeper who kept the notice saw that Qi Xiaoting was dressed like a farmer (at this time, she was wearing the most common peasant clothes in the countryside), and looked down on her, and said: "Famous doctors can't cure Miss's illness, what can you do as a rural person!" Go, go, where to go and where to rest! β
Qi Xiaoting said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "If you don't have a diamond, you won't have a big porcelain helmet." Since I dare to reveal the notice, I have a way. Real people don't show their faces, they don't show their faces, so lead the way. β
The housekeeper saw that her tone was stiff and that he didn't dare to call the shots, so he went into the hospital to discuss with the rich man Li.
The old rich man Li said: "Since you dare to expose the notice, there must be two shots." Calling him in, it's a big deal that he's the same as the doctor in the past, and he was scared away when he saw the condition. β
Under the leadership of the housekeeper, Qi Xiaoting came to the lady's boudoir.
"Mom, what kind of illness is this?"
Even though Qi Xiaoting was mentally prepared, she was still taken aback.
Although Miss Li was covered with a sheet, all the exposed parts had a layer of yellow blisters. Where the blisters were broken, bright red shredded meat was exposed. Seeing the way she grinned her teeth, it must have been unbearable.
Qi Xiaoting had never seen or heard of this disease, and what reassured her was that although the prescription was hearsay, if it didn't work, she would use ambergris herbal water. I have personally experienced the curative effects of ambergris herbal water.
The house was accompanied by the young lady's mother, the wife of the old rich man, and a personal maid.
Mrs. Li saw that Qi Xiaoting was sweating on her head, so she instructed the maid to bring a basin of water and let Qi Xiaoting wash off the heat.
How can I clean my hands when I see a doctor, and I am worried that the sweat beads on my face will drip on the abscess and cause infection, so Qi Xiaoting had to turn her back to the person, take off her mask and wash her face. Immediately put the mask back on after drying off the water.
However, her handsome face was still seen by the mother and daughter and the maid in the house, and they were stunned one by one. ββIt turned out that there was a big dressing mirror opposite, which took a real picture of Qi Xiaoting's appearance.
"Sir is so handsome," Mrs. Li praised, "There are no outsiders in this house, why don't you take off your mask, it's so cool." β
"Ah...... Nope! Qi Xiaoting was shocked and didn't know what to say. I thought: It's bad, this exposed face, after the notice of Lifu is posted here, it is not allowed to show the stuffing? Hurry up and watch, and leave quickly after reading it. Hurriedly took out the prepared medicine and wiped it on the young lady's arm - after all, it was the first time to use it, so try it in a small area first.
Sure enough, it worked, and after only a quarter of an hour, the young lady said that the place where the medicine was applied did not hurt anymore. Qi Xiaoting handed the medicine to the maid and asked her to wipe all the sores on the young lady's body, and walked out herself.
There is a difference between men and women! Qi Xiaoting can keep in mind that she is now a "man".
When the old rich man Li heard that the medicine worked, he was very happy. When eating, you must accompany you personally.
Qi Xiaoting thought to herself: Her face has been seen by Mrs. and Miss, and it is in vain to hide it from the old rich man. I took off my mask when I ate and put it on immediately after eating. It is well known that most of the practitioners have a habit of cleanliness, but no one cares about it.
Healing the sick must have a beginning and an end, and promises are fulfilled at the end. In order to cure Miss Li's illness and receive a reward of twenty taels of silver, Qi Xiaoting had to stay patiently.
The old rich man Li arranged Qi Xiaoting in a clean room, which made Qi Xiaoting very happy. She stayed in the guest room and bolted the doors and windows so that she could flash into the space at the slightest movement.
At night, after the rich Li's family had slept, Qi Xiaoting flashed into the space and told Long Yi and Jiao Na about the situation outside and discussed Miss Li's condition.
"Actually, just rub it with our (ambergris) herbal water." Jiaona said impatiently. She really couldn't figure out why Qi Xiaoting used such a clumsy method to treat people, it took a long time. With a wipe of ambergris herbal water, he was cured of his illness and left with twenty taels of silver, which is not much stronger than this!
Qi Xiaoting smiled: "I want to test the efficacy of this home remedy." If it works, spread the word so that other people with the disease can be treated.
"Although our ambergris herbal water has miraculous effects, it is only available to us, and it can only heal the sick we meet. You know how many of the same patients in the world are suffering from illness.
"Home remedies will solve this problem. It can be transmitted by word of mouth, and it can be spread farther and farther, so that more people can know about this home remedy and more patients can be treated. β
Long Yi nodded approvingly and said to Jiaona, "Your master thinks far and thoughtfully. There are indeed folk sayings such as 'home remedies for major diseases' and 'small home remedies for killing famous doctors'. It does not have much medicinal taste, but it has a unique effect on certain diseases.
"Home remedies are things that can be seen and touched, and they are inexhaustible among the people. It couldn't be better to spread the word out and use it to treat more people's diseases. β
"Is it better than our herbal water?" Jiaona said unconvinced.
"Our herbal water does work wonders, but only we have it. You just give, how many people can you give? You can't meet someone and say, 'Hey, I have herbal water, it's a cure, you can use it!' People have to think you're crazy. β
After listening to the conversation between her uncle and niece, Qi Xiaoting suddenly had an idea: If there is a chance in the future, she must spread the ambergris herbal water to serve more people.
Besides, the old rich man Li couldn't help but be moved when he saw that his daughter's illness had improved greatly, and that the doctor was young and handsome. I thought: Such a handsome young man, who also has profound medical skills, recruiting him as a son-in-law is also the pride of my Li Men. I am very glad that this matter was written in advance on the notice.
"How can a gentleman be so handsome, dressed in peasant clothes? If you don't dislike it, let the insider customize two bodies for you. After breakfast the next day, the old rich man Li said happily to Qi Xiaoting.
Qi Xiaoting hurriedly waved her hand: "No, I'm used to it, this dress is casual." β
Where is the old rich man Li willing to follow, he instructed his wife to find a female worker to make new clothes for Qi Xiaoting, and secretly told his wife to let her make the groom's clothes together.
Mrs. Li saw Qi Xiaoting's appearance, and she liked it more than she could. I thought to myself: My daughter has this strange disease, although it is painful, but it has attracted this handsome young man. He must have come with the promise of the notice, and it was not a match made in heaven!
I heard the old man call it the groom's clothes, and I felt that this marriage was a certainty. I hurriedly invited two tailors who were the most skillful in the bend, and in just one day's work, I made two new and high-quality noble clothes. The bridegroom instructed the family to work slowly and skillfully, and to do it when his daughter was well.
Since Miss Li saw Qi Xiaoting's face, her heart was already fluttering. After knowing that he was cured, he was his own man. Seeing that Qi Xiaoting was more handsome and chic after wearing the new clothes that fit her, she was very happy.
The mood is comfortable, coupled with good medicine, the abscesses on the body will scab over in one day. On the third day, all the scabs on his body fell off, and he returned to his beautiful and handsome appearance.
In order to keep his promise, the old rich man Li still took out twenty taels of silver and gave it to Qi Xiaoting. And said clearly: The silver is a thank you gift, and the promise of the east bed must be fulfilled, so you have to recruit Qi Xiaoting's son-in-law.
Qi Xiaoting hurriedly waved her hand and said: "No, there is already a wife room at home, so you can't make your own claims outside and remarry." β
After hearing this, the young lady said: "Even if you are a concubine and a child, you will follow him in this life and this life." β
When the rich man Li saw that his daughter was concerned, he wanted to strike while the iron was hot and make the raw rice into mature rice. I thought: With my daughter's beauty, can I still hold your heart? Immediately asked the housekeeper to instruct the kitchen to buy wine and food, send wedding cards to relatives and friends, and the next day they visited the church to get married.
Qi Xiaoting saw that things were getting bigger and bigger, where did she dare to stay! wrote a euphemistic and earnest letter of rejection, and wrote down the home remedies for Miss Li's treatment on a piece of paper, and indicated: It must be publicized to the outside world. The more people who publicize it, the more thoroughly the young lady's disease will be eradicated. He didn't say anything, and hurriedly smeared oil on the soles of his feet with the silver and his own thingsβslipped.
After making a fuss for several days, earning twenty taels of silver and a noble son's clothes, Qi Xiaoting was a little complacent.
If you have money, you have to make a living. 108,000 miles away, eating, drinking, and Lazar have to be arranged, isn't it!
Long Yi had a big wooden barrel for bathing, and after Qi Xiaoting came, Long Yi generously said, "This is a public facility", but Qi Xiaoting didn't use it.
When you are on the planet of God, you can't wash your body with wounds; After the Nether, it is usually solved in the small rivers and ponds outside.
Because Qi Xiaoting found that after the space became stony, the two canals in the farmland, that is, the Qingliang River and the Suolu River in reality, quickly dried up. Now only the draught well in the courtyard can still carry water. And the water level is still very deep. Qi Xiaoting is worried that when it is useful, she will use as little as possible if she can.
After Jiaona moved to the "palace", she had her own bathroom, so she used the washbasin to draw water and wipe the bath. More than once complained about not being able to soak in their own shower.
Qi Xiaoting bought two large baths, one for herself and one for Jiaona. I plan to follow Jiaona's example and use a cloth to surround a bath in the open space by the "Qingliang River", so that the three of them will have their own bath tubs (buckets).
Chickens, ducks, fish, and meat were bought. Although there is something in the agricultural space, Jiao Na is not used to it. Even for her, you have to add some fishy meat.
Meals and meals, just rice and meat without vegetables are not enough. There are only fruits and vegetables in the space, but there are no leafy vegetables that are stuffed and made into porridge, and Qi Xiaoting wants to add some.
Qi Xiaoting found that the vegetable seeds were sold by putting all kinds of vegetable seeds in a small cloth bag, indicating the name of the vegetables on them, and selling them according to the wine cup. According to the nobility of the dish, it varies from ten, twenty, and thirty.
Actually, she only needs a few grains. Once the soil reproduces in space, it is a thousand grains, and more is a waste. Although I have money now, there are many places to use it, so I must save money.
"Shopkeeper, I'll give you a penny for each of these leeks, spinach, fennel, and celery seeds, and you can give me a few of each. I'm not too little. Qi Xiaoting said to the vendor selling vegetable seeds.
"You're not too little, I'm too little, go and go! I don't send me a meal. The vendor said viciously.
Qi Xiaoting is wearing a noble son's clothes today, and she knows that the vendor said "asking for food" because she thinks she buys less and looks down on her. The willful came up, and said in his heart: The more you don't sell, the more I have to buy, see who has toughened whom!
Then he put on a smile and held up a tael of silver and said, "Shopkeeper, it's not that I don't have money, and I really don't use much." I also fell in love with your rapeseed with good color and full grains. β
As he spoke, he grabbed the vegetable seeds and pretended to appreciate them. After reading the four kinds of vegetables, he put aside a penny and said, "Thank you, I saved three pennies." β
It turned out that it was the height of summer at this time, and Qi Xiaoting had sweat leaching out of her palms, so when she grabbed and put it away, a few small rapeseeds were stained on the sweaty place. In terms of price, Qi Xiaoting tried to feel at ease.
She is not afraid of less, a few grains are enough.
