Chapter 17
Rong Jiu calmly faced the questioning gazes of the two without flinching. She was always smiling and stood there calmly, as if carrying some kind of magical power, making people involuntarily convinced.

Doctor Zhou didn't say much, and ordered Yuan Bao to fetch the silver needle.

Rong Jiu took out a slender silver needle and pierced it into Quchi, Hegu, Neiguan and other acupoints. When she moved the needle, it moved like flowing water, which made Dr. Zhou's heart tremble.

The girl in front of her is definitely better than him in medicine.

While performing the needle, Rong Jiu asked the man, "How do you feel?"

The man showed joy and said in surprise, "It doesn't hurt anymore."

Dr. Zhou suppressed the shock in his heart, and continued to set the man's bones: "Ms. Shen has excellent medical skills, and I admire you very much."

"Dr. Zhou's praise, this is called acupuncture anesthesia, based on the human body's meridian sensation transmission, acupuncture points are used to achieve the effect of anesthesia and analgesia. The kidney governs the bones. When acupuncture is used for anesthesia, use more kidney points."

As soon as Dr. Zhou heard it, he understood that Rong Jiu wanted to teach him. Not only was she superb in medical skills, she also kept secrets, which made Dr. Zhou admire him even more.

After finishing their work, the two of them left the consultation room and discussed acupuncture and anesthesia again. The acupuncture and anesthesia technique was extensive and profound, and Dr. Zhou was a little unfinished, but it was getting late, she was a little girl, and she would be gossiped if she returned too late.

Doctor Zhou changed the subject: "Miss Shen, are you here today to buy medicine for your father?"

Rong Jiu pointed to the herbs on the counter: "I'm here to sell medicine, so I'll buy some pearl powder by the way."

"Madam Shen, if you have medicinal materials in the future, just send them." Dr. Zhou ordered Yuan Bao to weigh the medicine, and then paid her, "20 taels of wild ginseng, 15 taels of gastrodia elata and astragalus, a total of 35 taels."

Her medicinal materials are all half-dried, and they are not worth so much money at all. Doctor Zhou must have collected them at the price of dried medicinal materials.

The price of dried medicinal materials is relatively high, Rong Jiu is unwilling to take advantage: "These medicinal materials were just dug yesterday, so we count them as fresh."

Dr. Zhou stuffed the money into her hand: "Your medicinal materials are of good quality, so they are worth money. My old man never trades at a loss, but he didn't give you more money."

Rong Jiu couldn't help laughing: "Then thank you, Doctor Zhou."

Rong Jiu took the silver, bought some pearl powder, and went back directly. When she got home, the Shen family just came back from work.

Mrs. Wang saw her coming back in a bullock cart from a distance, and hated her. She was working in the fields, sun-drenched and tired, and this mourner went out to wander.

"Jiuniang just came back from the county, did you buy something good?" Wang looked into the bamboo basket, "Jiuniang, this is pearl powder, I heard people say that pearl powder can rejuvenate the skin, you buy it There are so many, I can't use them all up, so I'll give some to my second sister-in-law."

Rong Jiu raised his eyes and glanced at her, and said directly: "I bought these for a tael of silver, how much does the second sister-in-law want?"

Mrs. Wang's face was ugly, this mourner must be crazy about money, and wanted to get money from her, why didn't she grab it.

"Jiu Niang, before the separation, everything was shared, so why do you need money?"

Rong Jiu raised his eyebrows: "I spent my own dowry. If the second sister-in-law also subsidizes her own dowry, I will give you as much pearl powder as you want."

Wang choked for a moment, and shut up resentfully.

Rong Jiu laughed: "Since the second sister-in-law is reluctant to part with her dowry, then forget it."

Wang's face turned red, and seeing Rong Jiu go back to the house with the bamboo basket on her back, she was so angry that her heart ached.

Mrs. Li said: "It's getting late, everyone is hungry, go cook."

Wang's face became even uglier.

She has worked so hard all day and still has to cook. This old woman's heart is too biased.
