Chapter 122 Can’t Leave Yet

"Brother Zicheng, let's go. I'll go up the mountain with you to collect herbs. I don't believe that we can't cure Grandpa Xun's illness without a doctor."

As Shitou spoke, he pulled the older boy and was about to leave.

At this time, Yue Fuli reined in her horse, looked at the two of them with a smile, and said, "I know some medical skills. How about I go with you to take a look?"

"Really? That's great." Xun Zicheng looked happy and looked at Yue Fuli eagerly.

In the past, when his grandfather was sick, he could ask others to help him take him to town. But now the village is in chaos, and everyone is taking care of themselves. Who cares about them?

If it weren't for this, they wouldn't have asked for help from outsiders like Yue Fuli.

"Lead the way."

"Come with me."

Xun Zicheng happily led the way, Yue Fuli followed beside him, and Shitou followed beside him. In contrast to Xun Zicheng's happiness, Shitou looked at Yue Fuli with a wary expression and asked worriedly, "Can you really treat illnesses?"

"What do you think?" Yue Fuli looked at Shi Tou with a smile, resisting the urge to pinch his little face.

Shitou fell silent, but he was still wary of Yue Fuli. He remembered that doctors who could treat illnesses were usually older, and someone of Yue Fuli's age was at most an apprentice.

If there was no doctor in the village and he couldn't go to the town, he would definitely not agree to let Yue Fuli treat Grandpa Xun.

Yue Fuli had no idea that Shitou knew all this at such a young age, and she didn't know that he knew this because he often fell ill as a child and had seen many doctors, which was the reason he came to this conclusion.

The Xun family's house was the only brick and tile house in the center of the village. Therefore, the heavy rain didn't cause much damage.

Xun Zicheng took Yue Fuli straight into Grandpa Xun's room. At this time, he had been feverish for most of the day.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, he immediately opened his eyes and asked, "Is it Zicheng?"

"Grandpa, it's me!" Xun Zicheng quickly came to Grandpa Xun's bed, half-knelt down and looked at him, saying, "Grandpa, don't worry, I found a doctor, and you will be well soon."

"Doctor, where did you get this doctor? Did you go to the town alone? I heard you went to the Lutafang area in the town. You must not go there."

"No, I didn't go to town. I was a doctor passing by."

"Really?" Grandpa Xun looked up at his grandson with some disbelief. When he saw Yue Fuli standing there, he was stunned for a moment before asking, "Are you the doctor hired by Zicheng?"

"Yes, old man, I am the doctor your grandson invited." Yue Fuli nodded, then walked forward to treat the old man.

Grandpa Xun mainly had a fever, probably because he got caught in the rain last night and didn’t change his clothes in time.

After confirming Grandpa Xun's condition, Yue Fuli took out a bottle of pills and said to him, "This is the medicine I made myself, specially for treating colds. Take one pill three times a day. If you take one now, your fever will subside in no time."

Yue Fuli handed the pill to Xun Zicheng and instructed, "Take it with warm water."

Xun Zicheng took the pill with some doubt, hesitated for a moment, then picked up the cup on the table next to him and poured himself a glass of water.

The disease had been treated and the medicine had been given. Yue Fuli felt that there was nothing left for her to do and was about to leave. Unexpectedly, Shitou stopped her and said, "You can't leave yet!"
