Chapter 347 Medical Skills
Liu's voice choked with sobs.
It was also because the ox cart her parents were riding in overturned and her father was injured. At this time, Liu looked frightened.
Fortunately, we found the village head, and he asked someone to help.
But there was no doctor in the village.
Shen Yueyao looked at Liu, whose name was Liu Sanqin. She was well-known in the village and had a good relationship with her husband. She also had a pair of children at home, who were both sensible and polite.
On weekdays, Liu Sanqin and his wife both work in the workshop, working diligently and seriously.
He doesn't talk much on weekdays and just works.
At this time, she was obviously too anxious, so she couldn't help crying.
Shen Yueyao said: "Don't worry, I'll go over and take a look."
As she spoke, Shen Yueyao hurried into the house, took out the medicine box from the space, and then walked out with the medicine box.
Dabao and Erbao ran after her and said, "Mom, let's go too."
Shen Yueyao said: "It's cold outside, just be good and wait for me to come back home."
However, Shen Yueyao was still worried about letting Dabao and Erbao stay at home.
Li, the wife of the village head, said, "Chen girl, don't worry and go over. I will help you take care of Dabao and Erbao."
Shen Yueyao said: "It's okay, Aunt Li, just help me send them to the old house and let my mother help take care of them."
The old house that Shen Yueyao was talking about was naturally where Madam Meng and her family lived.
If it were a normal day, Shen Yueyao would let Dabao and Erbao go by themselves.
But it snowed today and the road was a bit slippery, although the house she lived in was not far from her mother's old house, just a few streets away in the village.
But Shen Yueyao was worried that Dabao and Erbao would slip on the snow.
Mrs. Li nodded quickly: "Miss Shen, just go ahead and do your work. I will make sure to bring Dabao and Erbao to Sister Meng."
So Shen Yueyao felt relieved.
She quickly got on the carriage and took Liu to the place where the ox cart overturned.
At this time, the village head and several others gathered next to the ox cart, and everyone helped to pull the ox cart out of the ditch.
However, the frame of the car was damaged and the ox's leg was lame, so it was unable to pull anyone.
Even Liu Sanqin's father had a broken leg, and her mother even broke her waist.
The village head and his men helped collect the dropped items.
"The snow is very deep from the village to the town, and it's hard to find a doctor in the town now."
"I guess the clinic is closed in this weather."
“Dad and Mom, don’t worry, Sanqin has already gone to ask Miss Shen, Miss Shen will definitely have a way.”
Liu Sanqin's husband Lin Jiangzhi was also very anxious, but he also said something to comfort the two old people.
"Yes, our boss is so powerful that he must have a way."
"It was the boss who cured Mr. Su's leg."
"Not only that, it was the boss who cured Madam Meng's eyes. Even if anyone in the village has a headache or fever, the boss will give them a prescription. When the weather gets cold, the boss has people boil some cold-dispelling water in the big pot in the workshop. It really works, and it's not easy to catch a cold or get a headache when it's cold..."
Everyone was talking about how amazing Shen Yueyao was.
It was as if Shen Yueyao was there, and everyone felt at ease, thinking that nothing would happen.
It was only when Liu Sanqin's parents visited their daughter's home that they learned about the changes that had taken place there.
Only then did I know who the boss they were talking about was.
The two of them set up a breakfast stall in the county town to earn some money to supplement their family income. Their three daughters were also sensible and filial.
The eldest daughter found a husband, and the second daughter also married in the county town, but the third daughter refused to listen and insisted on marrying Lin Jiangzhi from Liuhe Village.
This person is very nice. He looks good, has a good temper, and knows how to work. The only problem is that his family is poor.
But Liuhe Village was so poor and remote at that time.
They were worried that their third daughter would suffer, so they strongly disagreed. However, their daughter was stubborn and insisted on being with Lin Jiangzhi, so they had no choice.
We didn’t keep in touch for many years afterwards.
But they were still worried about their third daughter, and sometimes they would ask people to bring some food and silver, just for fear that they would not have enough to eat, but they would never see the third daughter and her family.
The third daughter tried to give them things, but they refused to accept them.
In fact, it’s not that he is cruel, but he is afraid that his third daughter’s family will not have enough food to eat if they give them food.
I'm clearly thinking about you, but I just don't say it.
It was also during these times that my daughter and son-in-law asked people to deliver things and messages.
After several times, they indeed knew that their third daughter's family was living a better life.
This time I took the time to come here specifically.
I had planned to go back yesterday afternoon, mainly because they had to get up early in the morning to set up the breakfast stall.
It snowed and we were delayed for the whole night.
However, after staying at their third daughter's house for one night, they felt relieved to know that their daughter, son-in-law, grandchildren were all doing well and their lives were getting better. When they saw that the snow had stopped in the morning, they prepared to go back.
Unexpectedly, they were not familiar with the road and the ox cart overturned into a ditch.
He almost lost his life.
Liu Sanqin's mother looked at Liu Sanqin's father and sighed, "It's all because of your stubbornness!"
Liu Sanqin's father didn't say anything. He didn't want to cause trouble for his daughter's family, but he never thought that he would have to cause trouble now.
Just as everyone was talking, Shen Yueyao and Liu Sanqin came over.
Shen Yueyao checked Liu Sanqin's father's leg and said, "It's nothing serious, just a broken leg. I'll reset it first and see if there are any branches or planks around so I can fix it..."
Everyone helped, and Shen Yueyao handled it quickly.
The wounds were also cleaned and bandaged.
Then Shen Yueyao took care of Liu Sanqin's mother's injuries.
After everything was handled, Shen Yueyao asked someone to help carry the person onto her carriage and took him back.
Liu Sanqin was so grateful that she almost knelt down.
At the same time, the villagers once again witnessed Shen Yueyao's medical skills and thought they were truly amazing.
Moreover, Shen Yueyao treated the wound neatly and efficiently.
She treated the bleeding spot, applied some medicine on it, and the bleeding stopped instantly. It was magical to watch.
So everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
After sending the person to Liu Sanqin's home, Shen Yueyao gave him a few bottles of medicine and told him how to use them to heal his injuries before going back.
Liu Sanqin said to her parents, "Dad and Mom, just stay at home and recuperate. Don't rush back."
Liu Sanqin's father said awkwardly, "I have to set up a breakfast stall in the morning, how can I not go home like this?"
He also missed the breakfast stall at home, which was how he and his wife raised their three daughters.
Although all three daughters are now married and have children of their own and have their own families, they are still used to setting up stalls every day to earn some money.
If they earn a little more, they can save it and leave it for their daughters.
The main reason is that they haven't been in contact with their third daughter's family for many years. They feel a little uncomfortable living in their third daughter's house after being injured like this.
Liu Sanqin was filial in her heart. Seeing her parents grow old and their hair turned white, she felt very sad. Her eyes were red and she said, "Dad and Mom, you can just rest and recuperate here. Our family is doing well now. You saw it when you came here yesterday."
"Besides, we have heated kangs at home now. When the weather is cold, you can sleep on them and stay warm. You won't be freezing."
"With you here, I can still show my filial piety."
Lin Jiangzhi said, "Yes, Dad and Mom, you just need to stay home and relax. It's convenient to buy things in our village now. There are stalls in the commercial street and farmers' market. It's very convenient to buy vegetables, meat and daily necessities."
"My wife and I go to the workshop to work every day. We work five days and rest two days. We come back for lunch and come back in the afternoon after work. On weekdays, we let our two children help take care of you. They have nothing to do at home..."
"Mom, you're fine. If you're bored, you can go for a walk. I can also cook some delicious food for you."
Liu Sanqin's parents were both amazed when they heard this. Who could have imagined that such a big change had taken place in Liuhe Village.
It's completely different from what I've seen before.
When they came yesterday, they couldn't believe it and thought they were hallucinating.
They had been to Liuhe Village before. The house where Liu Sanqin and Lin Jiangzhi lived was small and dilapidated, and there were no extra decorations inside.
But now their house has doubled in size and has become six blue brick and tile houses. The yard is very spacious and each room is very large. The original small wooden beds in the house have been turned into spacious warm kangs.
The kang will be warm as long as you burn firewood.
Only after they slept on the heated kang last night did they realize how warm it was.
Liu Sanqin's mother knew that she had no choice but to trouble her daughter's family.
"I'm sorry to bother you."
Lin Jiangzhi hurriedly said, "Dad and Mom, you are being too polite. We can still show some filial piety to you by allowing you to live at home. Your wife has always missed you very much."
Lin Jiangzhi and Liu Sanqin have a very good relationship. They have been very close over the years. They work hard to live every day seriously and have raised their two children to be diligent and sensible.
Although his wife didn't say anything, Lin Jiangzhi understood that she wanted to be recognized by her parents, and now that her life was better, she also wanted to be filial.
No matter what the attitude of his father-in-law and mother-in-law was back then, to put it bluntly, it was actually for Sanqin's own good.
It was because he was a poor boy in the past, but fortunately he can now stand up straight and be respected by others.
Of course, he has to thank his boss for all this.
Now Lin Jiangzhi works as a small manager in the winery. He receives at least one or two taels of silver as salary every month. Last month, because the wine sold very well, he received a bonus of two taels of silver.
If I continue like this, I can save a lot of money every year, and maybe I can send my son to school.
He also wanted to find a way to let his daughter learn some embroidery skills.
After Liu Sanqin and Lin Jiangzhi's sincere persuasion, Liu Sanqin's parents finally stayed.
Liu Sanqin's father couldn't work, but Liu Sanqin's mother was able to move, so she helped her daughter with some chores and helped cook dinner.
While cooking at the stove, Liu Sanqin's mother said, "I've heard people say that a heated kang isn't cold in winter. I heard that people in town have heated kangs, but I didn't think much of it. So this is what they mean by a heated kang."
Liu Sanqin's parents usually run a small breakfast stall, and many people come to buy breakfast. Sometimes those people will chat while eating breakfast or standing for a while at the stall, and they will also learn some things from the customers' chats.
Liu Sanqin looked at her mother's hunched back and white hair, feeling a pang of sadness in her heart. She said, "Mom, your legs aren't good, and Dad isn't in good health either. You shouldn't think about setting up a breakfast stall anymore. It's too tiring. You and Dad should just stay at home. My husband and I can earn at least two taels of silver a month, and we can make quite a bit a year. Life is getting better now, so you don't have to worry."
When they were young, Liu Sanqin and her two sisters sometimes followed their parents to set up stalls to help.
Because I have to go out early to set up the stall, I have to get up early before dawn to knead the dough and prepare the vegetables and other things.
I often don’t get enough sleep. It’s okay in spring and autumn, but summer and winter are the most difficult times.
It is hot in the summer but cold enough to freeze your hands and feet in the winter.
But their family has no land, so they can only rely on their parents' cooking skills to make a living.
They did have a hard time in the early years, and their parents had people secretly send food to them, and even the eldest and second sisters' families did the same.
I was afraid that they wouldn't accept it, so I never showed up.
Liu Sanqin also kept all these in mind.
Liu Sanqin's mother sighed and said, "Sanqin, I'm relieved to see that you are living well now."
“It just feels a little unreal. Liuhe Village has changed so much.”
"So many people come here to work, and the monthly wages are really good. But it's not easy for you and Jiang Zhi to make money, so you should save some money. We have some money on hand."
Parents all hope for their children to be well. If they have money, they naturally don’t want to use their children’s money for anything.
Liu Sanqin's mother said that she had some money, but actually it wasn't much, she just didn't want to make her daughter worry.
After lunch, Liu Sanqin's mother wanted to go and thank Miss Shen for saving them.
After leaving Shen Yueyao's house, Liu Sanqin's mother looked at the changes in the village and couldn't help but go to the commercial street that her daughter mentioned to take a look.
When she saw this, she looked a little excited.
When they returned, Liu Sanqin's mother excitedly said, "Sanqin, I've come up with an idea. We can also set up a stall here."
Liu Sanqin was stunned for a moment and said, "Mom, what did you say?"
Liu Sanqin's mother said excitedly, "I saw a farmers' market next to the commercial street. There are many stalls there, and many people are buying things there. It's quite crowded even in such a cold weather. I was thinking that as you said, so many people from Liuhe Village work here, it would be nice if we could set up a breakfast stall there."
She thought, since the boss's leg was broken and he had to recuperate, she could only stay here to take care of him. She was free anyway, so she might as well go over there and set up a stall.
You can also make some money.
She comes back at noon and can help her daughter, son-in-law, grandchildren cook.
Liu Sanqin disagreed a little and said, "Mom, I want you and Dad to rest at home and recuperate."
Liu Sanqin's mother shook her head and said, "Sanqin, you know I can't sit still at all."
"I see the place you mentioned over there. It has a wide variety of goods and many stalls. It feels even more lively than the market west of the county town."
It had just snowed heavily, but it was still bustling over there.
There are many people buying meat and vegetables and setting up stalls to sell things.
There was also a lot of food and many people bought it.
She never thought that Liuhe Village would become so prosperous today.
Liu Sanqin's mother was very excited at this time and wanted to have a big fight right away.
Liu Sanqin couldn't persuade her mother, so she had to agree to set up a stall.
"The shops and stalls over there are now free. As long as there are no problems, you can set up a stall there, and you don't have to worry about people causing trouble. The people who patrol the workshops will go there during the day, so safety is guaranteed."
If my mother wants to set up a stall there, it will be much more convenient.
"Your boss is really an amazing girl."
Liu Sanqin explained with a smile: "Of course not. With our boss here, both the villagers and the people in the workshop feel at ease..."
"Even if many people don't work in the workshop, they can still make some money by setting up stalls and doing small business nearby."
"It's cold now so you can't see anything, but when the weather is nice, not only do people around here like to go shopping in the commercial street over there, but even businessmen from all over the country like to go shopping in the commercial street over there and try the local delicacies when they come here."
"Our Dong family is really nice. They taste the food and tell the vendors if they think there's room for improvement. They then improve the cooking process based on their suggestions and seasonings. The food is delicious, and people from all over the country love it."
"Of course, everyone's favorite drink is the milk tea from that street. It's a specialty. Merchants from other places love it, and people in the workshop will occasionally buy a cup. In the past, no one would have been willing to buy it. No one would spend money if it wasn't necessary. But now everyone has money in their hands, and life is better. Occasionally, they will buy some food to treat themselves..."
While Liu Sanqin was talking about these things, there was a smile between her eyebrows and eyes, a smile that was full of hope for life.
…
The next day, the snow officially stopped. Early in the morning, before daybreak, every household cleared the snow on the streets, including the snow in front of the workshop. They also cleared the road in and out of the village to facilitate pedestrian travel for people from other villages near the workshop.
Many people entered the workshop before it opened.
Everyone is used to cleaning up automatically first and then lighting the stove.
Soon, the stove was lit and the workshop became warm.
Soon, everyone came into the workshop to work.
After Shen Yueyao had breakfast, she left Dabao and Erbao in the care of Mrs. Meng, and she went into the embroidery workshop with a string of knitting needles.
The embroidery workshop is now managed by Fan Jiang's daughter-in-law Geng.
Geng was very good at embroidery and had skillful hands. She was literate and knew how to manage things when she was in the Marquis' Mansion, so the embroidery workshop was kept in perfect order when she was in charge.
And the efficiency is much higher than before.
When Shen Yueyao arrived at the workshop, Geng hurried forward and said respectfully, "Master!"
Shen Yueyao nodded and said, “Well, first call some people who are good at handwork to my place, and find ten people to come over first.”
In fact, she had someone make a lot of knitting needles, but if everyone gathered around her, they probably wouldn't be able to see clearly or learn.
It would be better to teach ten people first, and then have these ten people teach the people in the workshop, which would be faster.
Although Geng didn't understand what Shen Yueyao was going to do, she only knew that she had to do whatever her master told her to do.
Soon, Geng called ten people over.
Shen Yueyao took out a pile of wool and said, "This is wool. Today I will teach you how to make this wool into yarn, and then how to knit the yarn into sweaters."
As soon as Shen Yueyao said this, everyone looked surprised.
Even those who are proficient in embroidery cannot imagine how clothes can be made from wool.
Not to mention that the boss was holding two very long needles in his hands.
What can you do with such a long needle?
Embroidery uses tiny needles.
Of course, everyone had seen the boss's abilities, and although they had doubts in their hearts, after a moment of hesitation, they all looked at the boss with trusting eyes, wanting to see what the boss would teach them.
