Chapter 47

The Qinmeng Chamber of Commerce was kind enough to come see her?
She also brought her cousin over to treat her?
When he said this, Fang wouldn't believe it even to death.But when she saw the warning look in her mother-in-law's eyes, she was full of resentment but didn't dare to say it out.

Lu Ximing took care of the wound and said: "The wound is not deep, but some festering occurred if it was not treated in time. It has been bandaged now, be careful not to touch the water, and it will be cured after taking a few more medicines."

When Mrs. Chen heard that she was going to take medicine, she took a deep breath, prepared to spend a lot of money, and said, "How much will it cost?"

"Aunt Chen, this is an internal fever caused by trauma. She can be cured by taking seven doses of medicine. The price at the drug store in the town is about [-] yuan."

"Eighty cents?! Why is the medicine so expensive?"

Lu Ximing explained: "It is difficult to find ground beetles and is slightly more expensive. There are also two flavors of rhubarb and peach kernels, which can be mixed with honey and rice wine."

Mrs. Chen looked keenly at Fang's calf: "Where did you get this injury?"

Fang's heart skipped a beat, and she struggled to sit up and covered it up: "Just, even if I accidentally got a cut by a tree branch, mother, it's not a problem and it's okay if I don't take medicine."

Qin Mengshang stood aside quietly, neither intending to mention what happened that day nor interjecting, but only said to Lu Ximing: "Xiao Ming, you write a prescription for Sister-in-law Chen San, and you, Grandma Chen, will decide the rest. "

When Mrs. Fang saw Qin Mengshang looking so calm and composed, she was so angry that her head went crazy!
If it weren't for the Zhou family dog, would she have fallen into this situation?Now he came here to visit her to see her jokes. She thought Qin Mengshang was the one who came to complain!

"What's the report?"

I don't know whether Fang was confused by anger or burnt, but she accidentally said what was in her heart.

Chen's daughter-in-law stared at her suspiciously: "Third brother and sister, what did you just say? Why is the Zhou family's daughter-in-law suing you?"

Mrs. Chen's eyes flickered between the third daughter-in-law and Qin Mengshang, inexplicably remembering that the third daughter-in-law went out early in the morning and hid in the house when she came back.Her intuition told her that this was not an easy matter.

Mrs. Fang panicked and said hurriedly: "Sister-in-law, what are you talking about! When will I say -"

"Okay!" Mrs. Chen interrupted her coldly, her eyes falling on Qin Mengshang, "Did the third daughter-in-law have a conflict with you in private?"

Qin Mengshang didn't want to mention this at first, but when the old lady asked, she had to tell the truth: "It's nothing, it's just that I have two dogs at home, and sister-in-law Chen San was bitten accidentally when she passed by that day."

Fang was startled, not expecting her to say that.

Mrs. Chen naturally believed what Qin Mengshang said, but with the temperament of the third daughter-in-law, she was bitten by the Zhou family's dog for no reason, but she could endure it without saying anything?There must be something fishy about it.

However, now is not the time to interrogate the third wife.

She cleared her throat and tried to be as gentle as possible: "Brother Ming, I really want to thank you this time. I would like to trouble you to grab some medicine for your third aunt when you go to town. I will give you the money first. If There’s not enough to supply you later.”

With that said, he counted 85 Wen from his wallet and gave it to Lu Ximing: "These five Wen will be used as your medical fee."

"Grandma Chen, I can't take this." My grandfather never charges money for medical treatment, and my second uncle also doesn't charge for medical treatment. How can he charge money?

"Here," Old Mrs. Chen forcefully put the coin into his hand, "We don't have a doctor in the village. It costs at least twenty coins to go to the town to ask for a doctor. This is what you deserve."

Lu Ximing looked at Qin Mengshang for help: "Sister."

"Take it," she said with a slight smile on her lips and a gentle look on her face, "This is money you earned by yourself."

After receiving her affirmative look, Lu Ximing suddenly understood why his cousin wanted to bring him here. His amber eyes lit up and he finally accepted the five cents.

The two didn't stay at Chen's house for long. When they went out, he handed the five coins to Qin Mengshang: "Sister, this is for you."

He now relies on his cousin for food, clothing, housing and transportation, so he should leave it to her.

Qin Mengshang was not a hypocritical person. He took it and put it away, saying, "I'll save it for you. If you need money in the future, just tell me."

"It's for my sister. I don't need money." "Don't say it too early. Although money is an external thing, it is indispensable."

When she first arrived in Sanjiang Village, she felt deeply that "it is difficult to move without money".

On the way, Qin Mengshang said to him: "Xiao Ming, you just heard from Mrs. Chen that there is no doctor in the village. You cured Fang's injury today, and soon your knowledge of medicine will spread in the village. If a villager comes to you for medical treatment in the future, you will have to pay the medical fee. I know your grandfather taught you well, but while showing kindness to others, you must first take care of yourself."

Lu Ximing was slightly startled.

Qin Mengshang continued: "It is a great blessing for the villagers of Sanjiang Village that you have medical skills, but our own situation is not good at the moment, and the help we can give to others is limited. If someone comes to you for medical treatment in the future, there will be no charge. You can also exchange food or other things for medical expenses."

Lu Ximing was thoughtful.In the past, my grandfather did not charge for consultation, but patients would always bring food, vegetables or eggs.He didn't understand it then, but now he understands it when his cousin says it.

"I understand, sister! I will do as you say from now on."

Qin Mengshang smiled with relief. He was a good boy, but he was too kind-hearted and easily suffered losses. He had to teach him slowly in the future.

The two siblings agreed and got on the oxcart heading into the city.

At this time, the Chen family.

Old Mrs. Chen was sitting by the window with a livid face, her eyes were sharp, as if she wanted to poke two holes in Fang's body.

Li was sitting at the door like a quail, trying to keep his presence as low as possible.The children were taken out by Chen's second daughter-in-law. The eldest daughter-in-law stood beside the old lady with a relatively calm expression.

Mrs. Fang's heart nearly jumped out of her throat when the old lady stared at her like this, and she pursed her lips: "Mother"

"Tell me, where did the injury on your leg come from?"

Old Mrs. Chen's voice was not loud, but Ms. Fang was flustered after hearing this: "No, it's nothing. Didn't the Zhou family's wife say that she was bitten by a dog when she passed by her house that day -"

"fart!"

This sudden voice frightened Li Zheng so much that he almost fell off the threshold. He coughed twice out of habit: "It's so early in the morning, please keep your voice down."

"Why keep it so quiet!" Old Mrs. Chen got angry and started talking like a serial bombardment, "My daughter-in-law is embarrassed outside, why don't I just say a few words louder?!"

Fang shrank and said, "Mom, I don't have one."

"Shut up! I'll know what you're going to fart as soon as I pinch your ass! If the Zhou family's dog accidentally bites you, can you hold back and say nothing? I usually pass by the Zhou family and don't even hear the dog barking. That dog has nothing to do with you. Qiu, will I catch you and bite you when you pass by?"

"Fang Guilan, you spread the rumor last time that I wanted to sell my granddaughter, and I haven't settled it with you yet! This time you're making trouble again. If you don't tell me, I will ask the third child to go to Tonghua Village to invite your parents!"

"Mom!" Ms. Fang was anxious and scared, "I didn't do anything. I just went to Zhou's house to take a look that day, and I was bitten by a dog."

"What are you going to see at Zhou's house?"

Ms. Fang lowered her head and didn't dare to look at Mrs. Chen at all: "Nothing, I just want to see how the Zhou family's wife made the konjac."

"Well, Fang Guilan, that's what you came up with!" Old Mrs. Chen suddenly realized, "How dare you care about other people's prescriptions for doing business? Why are you so thick-skinned? You deserve to be bitten by a dog! Today's eighty-yuan medicine fee Come out on your own!"

Fang subconsciously wanted to refute, but as soon as she raised her head, the old lady looked back and said weakly: "Mom, I was wrong."

Mrs. Chen snorted coldly. She knew that the third daughter-in-law was petty, but she didn't expect her to be so petty!Qin Mengshang didn't tell her face to face, probably because he was concerned about her face.

It just so happens that the third daughter-in-law is ignorant, and she deserves it.
