The girl who wears fast

Chapter 635 Half Bucket of Water Doctor (2)

As soon as Li Shichu came back from picking herbs on the mountain, he saw Dr. Li was drying the processed herbs while sighing sadly.

"Master, why are you sighing?" Li Shichu put down the medicine basket and asked.

"Today, another official came to arrest the strong men, and it was conscription again. This time, even the age was relaxed to 40 to [-] years old. Many pillar men in the village have been conscripted away. How will the whole family live? When will this world be peaceful..." Dr. Li said to Li Shichu with a sigh.

Only then did Li Shichu realize that it was because of conscription. Fortunately, she was a woman, and Dr. Li was getting old, so she escaped.

Today's dynasty has begun to come to an end. There are corrupt emperors and corrupt officials inside the court, and enemies invade the borders outside. The whole world has begun to be in chaos. Coupled with the continuous natural and man-made disasters in recent years, the people are in dire straits. There are uprisings in many places. up.

However, the place where Li Shichu lives is better, because the land is fertile, there are no natural disasters, the grain harvest is good, and the officials are not too greedy, so even though the taxation is getting heavier every year, everyone's life is not as good as before, but they can still get by. .

"Grandpa, it's useless for you to worry about this kind of thing. The world will still be in chaos." Li Shichu said straightforwardly. Indeed, according to the memory of the original owner, the world will have to be in chaos for more than ten years before there is a hero who dominates the world. Successfully overthrew the corrupt imperial power and became the founding emperor.

But neither the original owner nor Dr. Li succeeded in surviving until then and died.

Dr. Li nodded and said, "You're right, it's useless for me to worry, let's save more patients."

Although Dr. Li and Li Shichu also live in Taohua Village, they only moved here in the last ten years. They have no land of their own and need money to buy their daily necessities. How much money to pay, after all, the people who come to see a doctor nearby can't afford too high a doctor's fee and medicine fee.

"Tomorrow, I'm going to the town to see a doctor for Mr. Wang. You can go with me." Dr. Li said to Li Shichu.

Master Wang is also the owner of a restaurant in the town. If he is sick, he must see Dr. Li. Li Shichu also knows him very well, so he asked, "What's wrong with Master Wang this time?"

"Insomnia and dreams, mouth sores, asked someone to let me go, I think he is anxious, because the conscription has recruited many young and middle-aged people, the town is getting more and more depressed, and the business of his restaurant is not good. It's easy to do." Dr. Li said with a sigh.

Li Shichu thought that it would be even more difficult for him to do business in the future, because soon some people in the county closest to them started to revolt, and they were afraid of being implicated if they were close, so everyone was even more afraid to go shopping. Isn't it difficult to do business?

But this is a situation that ordinary people can't do anything to change. Everyone can only save more money and food to survive.

In the original story track, Dr. Li will die next year, leaving the original owner a teenage girl who was almost abducted. Fortunately, she still has some brains and pretends to be a man. Buckets of medical skills to earn money to live.

After Dr. Li Shichu came, he took advantage of Dr. Li's sleep to see his body, and found that it was not because of some serious illness that he passed away not long ago, but because his life was up. His body organs were exhausted due to aging, and he lost his vitality. This natural law of birth, old age, sickness and death, even Li Shichu, who is a top-notch Chinese and Western doctor, can't solve it. After all, she is not a god.

Knowing that there was no way to keep Dr. Li, Li Shichu planned to improve his life as much as possible while he was still alive, cook for him every day according to his taste, study medicine hard according to his words, let him not worry about himself, and dispense medicine for him. Or acupuncture to make him feel better...

So Dr. Li has only been troubled by the fact that many men in the village were conscripted and left. In fact, everything goes well, especially Li Shichu has been very obedient and sensible recently, as if suddenly enlightened, learning medical skills to learn from others , which surprised him very much, and felt that the little apprentice would definitely be able to learn something in the future, even without him as a master, he would still be able to live a good life.

"Chu'er, how about finding a good family for you to marry as a teacher?" Dr. Li said suddenly.

Li Shichu was so frightened that his head shook like a rattle: "No, no, I don't want to marry!"

"As a teacher, I don't know if I did the right thing in accepting you as an apprentice. Will I feel sorry for you? After all, being a female doctor is much more difficult than being an ordinary woman. Most women's life expectancy is to marry a good man. A good home, to have children. When you become a female doctor, you will not be able to live the life of a husband and a child like an ordinary woman. I am afraid that you will regret it in the future." Doctor Li looked at Li Shichu worriedly, and said.

"Master, I don't want to marry. What's the point of spending my whole life on men and children? It's much better to be a female doctor. She can cure diseases and save people. It's a good thing to do good deeds. Why do you think it's not good for me?" Li Shichu retorted, "And even if I'm married, but look at the days when the army is drafted for two days, what if the husband I married is arrested as a strong man one day? Why don't you leave me with a big family?"

Dr. Li was choked speechless by her words, and after a while he said dejectedly: "You are right, if the married man dies in a war, you still have to be a widow, and it will be even worse if you have children. Worse than a dog. Hey, it’s better to be a carefree female doctor.”

Li Shichu said: "It's good that you always think about it, so don't want me to marry again."

Because Mr. Wang's illness was a heart attack, Dr. Li was not too worried, and took Li Shichu to walk slowly for more than half an hour before arriving at Mr. Wang's house in the town.

Master Wang's restaurant business used to be good, so his home is one of the best-built houses in the town, and he also has several servants.

Li Shichu followed Dr. Li in, and saw Mr. Wang and Mrs. Wang sitting in the living room. Mr. Wang was very handsome, with a belly as big as an ordinary woman's six or seven months pregnant, but now his complexion was not very good, pale and yellow, Li Shichu took a quick look and knew that he was on fire.

"Doctor Li, you are finally here. Show my master quickly. He can't sleep at night, he has sores on his mouth and he can't eat, and his temper is much bigger than usual." When Mrs. Wang saw Dr. Li, she threw a pile of Tell Dr. Li about Master Wang's symptoms in a loud voice.

Dr. Li showed him the coating on his tongue, opened his eyelids, and felt his pulse... He quickly came to the conclusion that he was just anxious to get angry, and it was enough to take some medicine to reduce the fire and keep his mood calm and comfortable.

Master Wang frowned tightly, and said: "The business of the restaurant is not getting better day by day, how can I not be in a hurry to get angry? Seeing that there are not many people coming all day, the materials in my kitchen are all stinky, so I can only waste them in vain. , Hey, how do people live in this world today?"
