Chapter VIII: Treatment

"Lu Hualong" Li He shouted angrily, but saw that there was no response. Li He turned around and entered the house and hurried to the study. dragged Lu Hualong, who was curled up on the bed and was sleeping. A pinch of the back of his neck with his hand immediately made him exclaim.

"Honestly, what did you do last night?"

"Oops! let go of me. I'm going to die, I'm going to die, let it go. ”

Lu Hualong mourned again and again, but he was weak.

Li He threw him on the bed and said angrily, "Did you catch the wild things in the yard?"

Lu Hualong touched his head that was hurt, and said angrily: "I don't have the habit of sleeping at night, so I went to catch some wild things by the way." If you don't boast, why are you still beating me?"

Li He reprimanded angrily in a low voice: "See how you and my family explain?"

Lu Hualong was stunned for a moment, and then he laughed. He said disapprerovingly: "You're worried about this! Why didn't you say it earlier? I can't even sleep." ”

As he spoke, he glanced at Li He, got up, got out of bed and put on his shoes. Ran out into the yard with a puff of smoke.

He smiled at the Li family and said, "I slept in the stone cave for three or four hours yesterday afternoon, but I couldn't sleep at night. Thinking about the delicious food cooked by the young lady, relying on his own martial arts, he went into the mountains late at night to hunt. I never thought that I was lucky enough to catch a lot. It took a few minutes to send these wild things back. Not long after I fell asleep, I was woken up by the second son, and asked me to explain it to you. It's all children's, and it's frightening to you. I'm sorry, I'm sorry. ”

Saying that, he couldn't stop it.

Old Mrs. Zheng blamed: "You are so young, how can you rush into the mountain late at night." If you are injured by a wild beast in an accident, how can we tell your family..."

Speaking of this, I suddenly thought that he was homeless, and the word "confession" could not be exported. Then he looked at Lu Hualong with pity.

He sighed and said, "That's it, you've worked hard all night, go to sleep quickly! ”

Dou even took Lu Hualong forward into the room, waited for him to take off his shoes and went to bed, and tucked the quilt for him.

Only then did he say to the little uncle who was standing on the side with a face: "It's weird and painful, don't kill him anymore." Let him sleep well!"

Li He was pulled by his sister-in-law and reluctantly walked out of the study. Before leaving the door, he glanced back. I saw that the little snake had its eyes wide open, breathed evenly, and had fallen asleep.

Li He smiled dumbly, this stupid snake turned into a human, and he fell asleep with his eyes open. Afraid of being discovered by his sister-in-law, he hurriedly followed him. Li He came to the courtyard and saw that the eldest brother was fiddling with wild things.

Mrs. Zheng smiled: "Our family can't eat these wild things." Leave some for your Yue's family to send, and take the rest to the bazaar for some household use!"

Dou Shi hurriedly said humbly: "If you don't have a festival, my mother doesn't have to think about my mother's family. They have food and clothing, and they are not lacking in these. Let Da Lang take it and sell it! There is a shortage of oil, salt, rice and noodles at home, so it is better to buy more. ”

Mrs. Zheng said lovingly: "The daughter-in-law is a virtuous and virtuous housekeeper, how can she not know if she is a mother." It's just that our Li family is now in the middle of the road, and you have been wronged in your mother's family. Every time my mother thinks about it, I feel ashamed. Now, your second brother has become the pillar of the family, and his life will not be bad in the future. Although some wild things are not valuable, they are the hearts of my Li family to your mother's family. No excuses. ”

Dou's still had to be pushed back, and Li He smiled: "What my mother said is extremely true. Since Changji started from the Qi family, he didn't dare to say that he could make our Li family comparable to a wealthy family, and it would be easy to have enough food and clothing. Sister-in-law and prepare clothes for the eldest brother to go out, and I will take care of the daily use. ”

Dou is grateful to his mother-in-law for being considerate, and he is no longer hypocritical. After saluting and thanking him, he went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast.

Li He put away the wild things on the ground one by one, and said to the eldest brother holding the basket: "Big brother, you will divide the gift giver and the one you want to sell into two loads. You are prosperous today. After breakfast, you pick up wild animals and rush to the gate of the Hanqing Building in the southeast corner of the city at noon. If the shopkeeper asks for a price, you will offer five taels of silver. It will be closed, and the rest does not need to be said. ”

"Five taels of silver?" said Old Lady Zheng and Li Dalang's mother and son in unison.

Five taels of silver is enough for their Li family for a year. These wild things have been sold, at best, only a tael of silver is enough, how can they be sold for such a high price?

Li He said incomprehensibly: "It's five taels of silver, otherwise you will carry the burden and leave." The shopkeeper will chase you for a counteroffer, and the eldest brother can only stick to the original price. As Erlang said, the eldest brother can come back to ask Erlang for his guilt. ”

"Erlang is now a philistine, but he is not a scholar. ”

Although Mrs. Zheng was reproachful, she was smiling.

Li He said with a smile: "The income from labor is not stealing, not cheating, and not being forced to sell? Scholars also have to eat, which is not a noble thing. And Erlang now puts down his books and concentrates on his family. In the future, not only will they often change the market at the same price, but they may also do business everywhere. to prosper the family. ”

Mrs. Zheng said lovingly: "Erlang is strong for your father, and he makes good use of his studies, so that he will not be pedantic and autistic." I am very relieved for my mother. ”

After breakfast, Li Dalang really changed into new clothes. Divide the wild animals caught by Lu Hualong into two loads, and keep some for his own meal. After packing up and stopping, he took the burden and went to the county seat.

Li He picked up a basket and a small hoe again, and went into the mountains to collect medicine. In order to recuperate his sister-in-law's body, Li He paid more attention to collecting gynecological medicinal materials in the morning. I have climbed the five mountains and three mountains, and stepped on the thorny and dense forests. I won't be back until noon.

As soon as I entered the village with a basket full of medicinal herbs, I saw that the door of a family at the entrance of the village was full of people. From time to time, a woman's screams could be heard. Wang Erniu, who was also watching in the crowd, saw Li He.

Hurriedly rushed to the front and said: "Erlang, don't you know how to practice medicine?" Sister-in-law Wu started to start last night and is still struggling. Aunt Liu said that Sister-in-law Wu was in difficult childbirth, and she was afraid that one corpse would kill her. Go in and see if you can be saved. ”

As soon as Wang Erniu's words fell, he was reprimanded by several older elders.

"Nonsense, as a man, how can Erlang give birth to a woman? Not to mention that the master is unwilling, even Erlang is unlucky. ”

Unexpectedly, Li He said with a straight face: "The heart of the doctor's parents." In the eyes of doctors, there is no distinction between men and women, and only the focus is on the patient's condition. Erlang has the heart of hanging the pot to help the world, but how can he have scruples. Brother Erniu, please go in and ask if you need my help. ”

Wang Erniu was originally a warm-hearted person, and so was his daughter-in-law. I'm helping out in the delivery room!

Wang Erniu shouted a few times in the yard. After a while, the corners of his mother-in-law's skirt were stained with blood from the grass house. Wang's second sister-in-law was anxious, and she was about to get angry when she saw her husband.

Wang Erlang hurriedly grabbed her and whispered a few words. His mother-in-law was frightened, looked at Li He a few times outside the door, gritted her teeth and entered the delivery room.

At this time, the ** sound in the delivery room has become weaker and weaker, like a gossamer.

After a while, Aunt Liu, who was delivered by the village specialist, rushed out with blood on her hands.

Facing the people of the Wu family waiting outside, he said anxiously: "I can't do anything, hurry up and say it! If it drags on any longer, I'm afraid I won't be able to save any of them. ”

Sister-in-law Wu has given birth to three children, and she is responsible for all the housework at home. His in-laws and husbands naturally want to keep the adults, even a few children who are already sensible.

They all said, "Just protect the adults! Anyway, there is no shortage of children at home." Aunt Liu, please. ”

Seeing that the Wu family had made a decision, Aunt Liu first blessed Li He, who was standing at the door.

He also said to the Wu family: "The old woman doesn't have the ability to protect adults, and Li Xiucai said that he can save people." Now that you've made a decision, please ask Li Xiucai to hurry in and rescue you!"

Seeing that the Wu family was embarrassed, Aunt Liu's bloodshot eyes almost burst into flames.

said angrily: "When is it now? It is important to save people, what kind of men and women are guarded." Li Xiucai is not unlucky, why are you still rubbing? It will be too late to be late. You don't hear that the mother doesn't even have the strength to breathe. ”

Wu Dalang gritted his teeth and saluted Li He: "Please also ask Li Xiucai to help save people, our Wu family is all grateful." He said and bowed his hand again and again.

Li Helang said: "In the eyes of doctors, there is no distinction between men and women. Erlang is now a doctor, and it is his duty to save people. I will do my best to keep both mother and child safe. ”

After finishing speaking, he removed the medicine basket on his back, asked the Wu family to take hot water to clean their hands, and then entered the delivery room.

The courtyard was full of villagers, all craned their necks to look at the delivery room. No one dared to make a loud noise, it was silent, and it only felt that time had passed incomparably long.

A moment passed, and suddenly there was a ** sound in the delivery room, followed by the sound of Li Xiucai inhaling and straining the mother. Another moment passed, and a baby crying was heard.

The villagers in the courtyard, especially the Wu family, are like hearing fairy music. High-fived each other and celebrated, and said "congratulations" to Wu Dalang in unison.

After another while, Li He came out of the room. Wang's second sister-in-law also came out with her and said happily to everyone: "Sister-in-law Wu has given birth to a boy again." Mother and son are safe. Li Xiucai is really a miracle doctor, and I don't want to thank Li Xiucai for saving his life. ”

The old and young of the Wu family saluted Li He and expressed their gratitude incoherently.

After Li He motioned to Wang Erniu to scoop water and clean his hands, he picked out some herbs from his medicine basket and brewed them in front of everyone, then divided them into six portions and handed them to Wu Dalang to boil medicine for his mother-in-law.

And advised: "These medicines should be given to the mother in two doses every morning and evening." If there is anything wrong, you can come to my house to check the pulse. ”

After saying goodbye to the fathers and villagers, he was about to bend down and pick up the medicine basket, but he was snatched by Wang Erniu.

"I'll come, I'll come, you're tired and half paid, and I'll do this little work. ”

As he spoke, Wang Erniu picked up the medicine basket and went to the Li family first. Li He bowed his hand to everyone again before drifting away.

From the time he rescued people to the safety of the mother and son, it was only an hour. Aunt Liu, who was tired for a day and a night, came out of the delivery room.

swept away his tiredness and said excitedly to everyone: "Li Erlang is really a miracle doctor, and I haven't seen how he uses means, just a few pats on his sister-in-law's body, which made his sister-in-law energetic." The abnormal fetal position let him massage it with his hands a few times, and then it went over. The old woman will definitely learn more from Erlang in the future. ”

The old man of the village Zhengwang in the village said with a smile: "You go to learn, and I don't know if Li Xiucai is willing to teach." Why not choose a few smart and clever children in the village and follow Li Erlang to study medicine. In the future, we will rely on more to see a doctor. ”
