Chapter 10
Old Mrs. Qin has always been very taboo about Qin Muxiu's illness, because people in this era are afraid of being infected when talking about tuberculosis.
Over the years, I have also taken Qin Muxiu to ask many doctors and asked a lot of medicines, some said it was tuberculosis, and some said it was not tuberculosis.
So far, she still cannot determine what the problem of her grandson is.
Now that Zhao Jiner said that it was not tuberculosis, she asked quickly, "How do you know?"
"My father was a barefoot doctor when he was alive. I followed him everywhere to see the neighbors and learned some fur."
Zhao Jiner said with a slight expression, "This patient with tuberculosis has a blue face and purple lips. The cough sounds come from his lungs, but Ashu's face is only pale, and the lips are also normal. The cough sounds come from his throat. This is a sign of weak lungs in the accumulated years and has nothing to do with tuberculosis. Is Ashu born prematurely or cold?"
"You're so right!"
Old Mrs. Qin was so excited that her face turned red, "When his mother was pregnant, she somehow blushed. She gave birth to him a month in advance and finally gave up her life. Poor his father came back from him from afar. The father and the other man suffered a cold on the road. His father died of a cold, but he took it down. He didn't expect that the root cause of the disease would be left! Since it wasn't tuberculosis, then can it be cured?"
Zhao Jin'er didn't expect Qin Muxiu to have such a miserable life experience, and she thought she would have to care more about him in the future.
"There are treatments and treatments, but this disease is carried in the fetus. After so many years, it will not be a short time to treat it. The most important thing is to rely on maintenance."
Old Mrs. Qin couldn't help but wipe her tears, "If you want to say that a child without father or mother is pitiful, his uncle and aunt are honest countrymen. It is not easy to raise him. How can you give him money to see him? It has delayed him over the years."
Zhao Jiner is also an orphan, and she is deeply touched by this, "Don't be sad, don't you have money now, don't we get medicine for him now. I can estimate the prescription myself and save the medical expenses."
When Mrs. Qin saw that Zhao Jiner was neither humble nor arrogant, she always thought about her grandson and turned sadness into joy, "Okay, okay, let's get medicine now."
When he arrived at the medicine shop, Zhao Jiner said directly, "Shopkeeper, I want four liang of Northern Salvia ginseng, Ophiopogon japonicus, raw rehmannia, and Sichuan Yun. Then three liang of Sichuan Fritillaria, one liang and eight qian of Houttuynia cordata."
Unexpectedly, the little girl in front of her could prescribe her own prescription, so she couldn't help but take a look, "This is the prescription for treating lung asthma."
Zhao Jiner nodded, "My husband's womb has a lung thigh, I want to condition him."
He got married at such a young age, and married someone who was sick, and the shopkeeper's eyes were filled with sympathy.
He wrapped the medicine and said with a smile, "Then you are in great luck. If you are regulating fetal and lung asthma, I just came here with good things. Use it with medicine and keep it safe quickly."
Before Zhao Jin'er could speak, Old Mrs. Qin asked first, "What good thing?"
"The golden bird's nest that the three Buddhas all came together will be stewed in a cup every two days and eaten for one year for half a year. Any lung disease will be cured."
"How to sell it?" Old Mrs. Qin suddenly became interested.
If there is such a good thing, you have to buy it even if you sell it in a bad way!
"Eighty taels per pound, one pound is enough to eat for half a year."
Old Mrs. Qin dropped her chin in shock, eighty taels per pound.
I can’t afford to buy a house even if it is demolished!
Zhao Jiner had known that bird's nest was expensive, but she was still shocked when she heard the price.
But she also knew the effect of bird's nest on lung asthma, and the two swallows in the mountain yesterday could not help but pass through her mind. If she could...
But there are jackals, tigers and leopards in the mountains, and she really dare not enter the mountains rashly anymore.
Seeing that both of them didn't say anything, the shopkeeper said again, "This is the price of the best swallow cup. If you think it's expensive, I have some swallow fragments, which fall from the swallow cup during transportation. The effect is the same, but it's not very good-looking. The price is only half of the swallow cup."
Half is also very expensive!
Old Mrs. Qin hesitated that if she had earned the twenty taels of silver, she would definitely take it out to buy bird's nest without saying a word, but the money was obtained by the girl Jin who sacrificed herself to pick up the fox, so she couldn't make decisions for others.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Jiner pulled her cuffs, "Miss, how much is left for the twenty taels of us?"
"I spent four cents of refreshments and pork, and I used one or two taels of medicine, and there were eighteen taels and six cents left."
"Then let's buy all the remaining silver for the Shred Swallow."
After some bargaining, I bought four taels of broken bird's nest for fifteen taels of silver.
When he walked out of the medicine shop, Old Mrs. Qin was filled with emotion, "Girl, Ashu asked you for it, it was his lifelong blessing, and it was also his parents who had a spirit in heaven!"
When I bought this granddaughter-in-law, I just hoped that she could leave someone for Ashu. If one day Ah Xiuzhen... the Qin family would not make things difficult for her and let her go out to remarry.
Who would have thought that this girl was lucky and honest, treating Ashu with a heart-warming attitude.
Zhao Jin'er was a little embarrassed to be praised, "What are you talking about?"
Old Mrs. Qin stuffed the remaining three taels of silver into her hand, "These twenty taels are earned by your luck. I will keep the milk for you. I will give it to you when you want to use it. Now there is not much left, so you can just take it yourself."
Zhao Jiner waved her hands repeatedly, "I can't use the money, so I'll leave it to the aunt for use at home."
Old Mrs. Qin smiled kindly, "Ashu will keep getting medicine in the future. It's not easy for your aunt to pick it up again. Two men at home are holding on, so you don't have to worry about it. Remember, this woman has to have a little bit of her own private room and won't catch it at critical moments."
If her old woman hadn't saved some coffin book, could she have got such a good wife for Ashu?
Zhao Jiner had never even had a copper bag at her parents' home. She got more than three taels of silver and stuffed it into her waist to see that anyone looked like a thief.
Seeing that it was getting late and there was no need to go back to Luer Village, the two grandchildren rushed back.
The ox cart was gone when we arrived, so there were no heavy objects, so the two of them walked on the road.
Zhao Jiner was thinking about the old lady saying that Old Lady Qin was not good at legs and feet, so she stopped and stopped, but she didn't hurry up.
Halfway through, an old man driving a sheep came towards him. He heard him whip in his hand and muttering, "It's not that I want to kill you, but I really have no choice at home. After raising you for so many years, it's time for you to repay your kindness. You're walking!"
Unexpectedly, the sheep came to Zhao Jiner's side, knelt down with all her legs, and refused to move at all.
Zhao Jin'er was startled. Old Mrs. Qin protected her behind her and said to the old man, "You old man don't take good care of the sheep, you scared my granddaughter."
"I'm sorry, my sister-in-law!"
The old man quickly apologized, "My little grandson is in a hurry to get sick and needs money in urgent need. He had to pull out the old sheep who had been raising for seven or eight years and wanted to send it to the town for two dollars. I was so anxious that I didn't want to hit the child."
