Chapter nine
In the hot summer, Xi Ningyu, who brought fish up the mountain to collect herbs in the morning, sat on the dead tree stumps in the forest and ate the lunch. There were two baskets containing most of the soil-carved herbs and some mountain fruits on the ground.
"Miss, we have almost dug the medicinal materials. After lunch, we will go down the mountain?" Yuer asked Xi Ningyu while eating.
"Well, after finishing the meal, I took a break and went down the mountain." Xi Ningyu looked at the medical calligraphy borrowed from Dr. Shi in his hand.
After nearly a month of treatment and recovery, Mo Ying and his party said goodbye more than ten days ago. Before leaving, they came to the door to thank Xi Ningyu again. They also offered a hundred taels of silver as a reward, and two lonely medical books that Mo Ying found. However, Xi Ningyu felt that the exposure of his medical skills was still more stable at a gradual pace, so Xi Ningyu kept the two lonely books at home. He borrowed several more simple medical books from Dr. Shi to see, and the timely exposure was too deep and suspicious.
Xi Ningyu, who looked through these ancient medical books in the previous life, was surprised to find that most of the medical skills were similar to what he learned in his previous life, except for being relatively backward. This allows him to easily use the medical skills of his previous life to survive without causing too much disagreement or doubts.
After lunch, Xi Ningyu and the fish went down the mountain, and walked slowly along the road. The sound of insects and birds from the sparse woods and grass beside the road made this afternoon look leisurely and contented. Xi Ningyu, who walked along the way, felt everything around him, and his heart was particularly peaceful and peaceful.
Just in front of the road where Xi Ningyu and Yu'er rushed back to the county town, several carriages gradually got closer and closer as the two of them walked, and they could vaguely hear the anxious calls coming from the car: "Father... Father wake up, father..."
When I walked closer, I heard the anxious call from the carriage and the lifting of the curtains outside the carriage and the several servants and two very well-dressed women standing outside the carriage in a panic under the support of several girls.
"Dare you dare to ask if there is anything you can help?" Xi Ningyu stopped and looked at the two well-dressed women.
"It's my master... I suddenly fell into a coma in the car for some reason." The two women, who were slightly older, said, wiping tears from the corners of their eyes with a veil.
"Mother, it's important for us to rush to the town for medical treatment. If we delay any further, my father-in-law will be even more serious!!" The younger woman looked at Xi Ningyu and turned to look at the carriage and said.
"But... I don't know if it will make the master even more dangerous now. How is this good... How is it good!!" The slightly older woman stomped her feet anxiously and said.
"That... this lady, the little woman manages medicinal materials. She understands medical skills a little. If she can trust her, I would like to see it for your master. Maybe it may not be cured. But at least she can tell whether it is suitable to continue to rush to the town to seek medical treatment and ask for medicine." Xi Ningyu said to the anxious woman on the roadside.
"Girl! Are you really good at medical skills?" The young woman said happily when she heard Xi Ningyu's words.
"My lady has a good medical skills." Yu'er interrupted at this time.
"Too much!" Xi Ningyu glared at Yu'er and scolded.
"...It's all, I didn't lie, and the lady has never saved anyone." Although Yu'er retreated behind Xi Ningyu, she still muttered.
"Then please let the girl get in the car and see my father. I'm sorry," a young man who looked over 20 years old came out of the carriage and bowed his fists.
Xi Ningyu looked at the young man who came out of the carriage. He saw a pair of flying stars on his anxious face, a pair of sword eyebrows slanted into his cloudy temples. His cheeks were sharply angular, and his slim nose was hanging in the middle. He was a lips pursed from anxiety and lying under his nose. He was wearing a soapy green flower-picking gown, and he looked handsome.
"Young Master, you don't have to be polite. You don't know if you can treat it. You just try your best." Xi Ningyu saw the young master's face, and felt that he was not like a sinister person. He walked into the car to treat the patients in the car.
At this time, the middle-aged man in the car looked pale, sweating all over, and his hands were clenched into a fist.
After Xi Ningyu entered the carriage and saw this situation, he felt a little bit in his heart. He reached out and held the patient's hand and started to take the pulse. This person was caused by the coldness of evil entering the body, and the rushing journey caused the internal and external dryness caused by the dryness and heat in the hot summer.
"Why is your father like evil and cold? He is also suffering from heat and the situation is a little bad. I will first use an injection to relieve the emergency. Then you go to Renxintang in the county to take medicine. Is it okay?" Xi Ningyu confirmed the disease and asked whether the young master and his group were waiting outside the car to agree to her to perform the injection.
"I'm sorry, please treat my father just!" The young man was very happy. However, the young woman beside him reminded the young man with a little hesitation. She seemed not very relieved. Xi Ningyu was afraid that her medical skills would not be very good at such a young age. In addition, the patient's condition was not optimistic, so she was unwilling to let Xi Ningyu take the opportunity to treat him, so she hinted that the young man refused.
"I'll ask my master to save me, and I will thank the girl again afterwards!" At this time, the older woman also invited Xi Ningyu to treat the patient.
After hearing the patient's family, Xi Ningyu took out the silver needle he carried with him and began to relieve the emergency of the middle-aged man in the car. At the same time, he said: "I'll lift up the curtain of the car to ventilate the inside of the car."
"Husband, although that girl is kind-hearted, how can she be proficient in medical skills at such an age? I am really worried that she will rashly ask her to treat her father-in-law." At this time, the young man who had just lifted the curtains of the front and back of the car outside the car was pulled aside by his wife and whispered.
"Madam, let's talk about it. My father's situation is also in crisis. You and I don't know medical skills, so there is still a distance from the town..."
"But..." What else did the young woman want to persuade?
"Okay, I think that girl is still credible. You two don't have to worry so much. The girl's eyes are clear and calm. Although she is young, she is smart, so there is no need to worry!" The elderly woman interrupted the couple at this time.
"It's... Since my mother-in-law said that, my daughter-in-law knows." The young woman still answered hesitantly.
Xi Ningyu used silver needles to relieve the patient's condition and got off the carriage. When he watched a man and two women return to the carriage, he said, "It's okay, but you still have to use medicine as soon as possible. There is a doctor Shi Hanxue and Shi in Renxin Hall in the town, and his medical skills are good. Take the patient to ask for medicine!"
"Thank you, my girl. I wonder if she is going back to the town too? She is called Mu Hui. These two are mother An and son Xie. Miss Ruo is also going back to the town in front. Please follow the car!" Mu Hui bowed his fists and thanked him and introduced the identities of the two women. At the same time, she was a little worried about her father, so she invited Xi Ningyu to take the car together.
"Okay, I was a little tired of collecting herbs on the mountain. I was disturbed by the way." Xi Ningyu also saw the hesitation of the young boy Mu Hui. He happened to be too lazy to leave again, so he agreed with Mu Hui's request to take a car back to the town. Mu Hui helped Xi Ningyu's master and servant put the medicinal materials on the carriage and let the women and Xi Ningyu enter the carriage and drive to the town by himself.
"I don't know the girl's name? Today the girl saved my master. I will definitely repay you in the future. If you don't even know the name of your benefactor, wouldn't it be ridiculous?" Mu Hui's mother, An, in the car, smiled and talked to Xi Ningyu.
"That's right. I think the girl is so good at medical skills at such a young age. It's so enviable. How old is the girl this year?" Xie also asked An's words.
"The little woman's surname is Xi Ningyu, and she is twelve years old this year." Seeing that An Xie was talking to her with some compliments, Xi Ningyu knew that the family was not very relieved to treat the patients and invited her to go in the same car, but it was not a mistake, so she seemed close and chatted with each other in a harmonious manner.
"I feel a little ashamed of having such ability at the age of twelve. I think I don't have such good ability when I was as old as a girl, haha!" Xie said.
"How could it be? I think the wife is from a wealthy family. How could a woman like me learn some medical skills? If I were afraid she would be laughed at," Xi Ningyu also smiled.
"This is what I say, practicing medicine is a good deed. How can I laugh at? Who wouldn't look for a doctor when I get sick? Girls should not be too self-righteous, and the ability I learned is not robbed. What's the reason for women to study medicine? It's noble!!" An's words also seemed a bit contrary to the way of despising women in this world. But Xi Ningyu's heart was deep, so the atmosphere in the car became more harmonious.
"It's not bad, my mother said very much. Miss Xi, my family lives in the town. I hope you can come often when you are free. We will move back together, and our relatives and friends in the past have less time to go around. There is also an uncle who stays in the imperial capital, and the family is less deserted. My mother and I both like girls, and I hope we can come and go in the future!" Although Xie began to distrust Xi Ningyu's medical skills, he gradually became familiar with him in the car after this. He felt that he loved Xi Ningyu very much, so he invited him to come and go in the future.
