Li Quan felt extremely aggrieved. He had lost money and now had become a supervised team doctor, and was even beaten by his cousin.

But he also knew that he had done something wrong, so he didn't dare to refute it and just got up quietly.

Lin Tao felt a toothache when he saw him like this. What a useless man! Otherwise, his aunt wouldn't have to beg him for help again and again.

He glanced at the people around him and said unhappily, "Okay, just take care of these things first."

After saying this, he came up to Zhou Xin with a smile and escorted him away.

Li Quan came to his senses and looked around. Suddenly, his whole body was red as if it had been burned by fire.

There were dozens of people watching the excitement around!

A child saw him like this and laughed out loud: "Hahaha, mom, he doesn't look like a doctor at all!"

Li Quan looked over and saw the child's mother quickly covering her son's mouth to stop him from speaking.

But seeing this situation, no one else laughed out loud, and they were probably laughing at him in their hearts.

He was at a loss for a moment and didn't know what to do.

After watching the excitement, Xisheng's mother was satisfied and patted the dust off her buttocks and said, "Doctor Li, can you give me the medicine jar?"

Li Quan hurriedly stuffed the medicine jar back to Xisheng's mother and waved his hand like a fly: "Hurry up, hurry up."

Xisheng's mother made a "pooh" sound, held the jar in her hand, and walked away with her head held high.

I made a lot of money.

The medicine in the medicine jar is still worth one or two dollars, so he can give it to his son when he gets home.

The other people waiting for the examination left when they saw that there was no more excitement.

Li Quan watched helplessly as the long line of patients was reduced to a handful.

He couldn't believe that these people suddenly stopped getting sick?

Just as he was thinking about it, one person asked another: "Hey, you don't want to see a doctor anymore?"

The man sneered: "What are you looking at? I'm afraid of being cheated!"

"Hey, I heard from the old woman that there seems to be a young wife in their village who is very good at seeing. She can tell at a glance that the medicinal herbs are fake. How about we go find her and take a look?"

"That's fine. Peijia Village is right next door. Let's go. I have nothing to do this afternoon."

While they were talking, most of them had left.

Li Quan looked at the only two people left in front of him. They were both too old to leave, but the way they looked at him was full of suspicion. He was so angry that he almost died.

A woman from Peijia Village?

He remembered.

I must find a chance to see if a woman can beat her. Isn't that what everyone does? Why is she the only one who is so special and has to expose these things?

"A-choo! A-choo!"

Jiang Xi sneezed twice in succession, rubbed his nose, and was about to go to sleep.

"Big sister!!!" a sudden shout came out.

What's going on? Did he come back from poking a hornet's nest?

Jiang Xi was startled and woke up from his lazy sleep. He opened the door and went out, and saw Jiang Sanmei rushing over. Her dark face was now dark red, and her hands covered in mud were holding a "stick" that was made up of sections like bamboo.

Jiang Sanmei looked at her expectantly and asked, "Big sister, what do you think this is?!"

Jiang Ermei behind him was also very excited.

Jiang Xi's focus was originally on their faces, fearing that they would be stung by bees, but they weren't. She then lowered her eyes to look at Jiang Sanmei's hand. When she saw it, she was shocked: "Bamboo Ginseng?!"

"It's really bamboo ginseng!" Jiang Sanmei seemed to have received confirmation and turned back to look at her second sister excitedly: "It really is! We didn't dig the wrong one!"

Jiang Ermei also happily took two steps forward and looked at her expectantly.

Jiang Xi took the bamboo ginseng and confirmed that it was correct. It was quite large, with sections covered in mud. It was still a little wet to the touch. It had just been unearthed and was still full of vitality.

Good stuff.

Bamboo Ginseng is known as the Southern Ginseng. Although its medicinal value is not as good as ginseng, this is the place where ginseng is produced. The living habits and other aspects of this bamboo ginseng are similar to ginseng, so it got this name.

As far as Jiang Xi remembers, authentic wild bamboo ginseng has become hard to find due to over-exploitation in later generations, and it is sold in pharmacies for hundreds or even thousands of yuan per kilogram.

Although it is not as expensive as ginseng, its price is higher than many other herbs.

This tonic is very mild and is just right for regulating the body. After all, ginseng mainly grows in the Northeast and is not found here.

But soon, Jiang Xi suppressed his surprise and frowned, "Where did you dig it? There shouldn't be any around here, right?"

There was a famine a few years ago, and the surrounding mountains and forests were all walked through by villagers. The trees were all gnawed bare, so how could there be bamboo ginseng?

As expected, as soon as the question was asked, the two sisters were frightened. They subconsciously put their hands behind their backs, made faces at each other and dared not say a word.

Jiang Xi understood quickly and sneered: "So you ran to the mountains?! Didn't you say not to go inside for those herbs? If you run into a wild boar or a wolf, or even a snake, you're done!"

Jiang Ermei took a step forward and whispered, "I thought there would be better herbs in there, so I tried to go in, but I walked too deep by accident. I just happened to see the leaves of the bamboo ginseng you drew, so I wanted to try it, and I found that it was really..."

Jiang Sanmei also quickly raised her hand: "Me! I want to go, I want to save more money, big sister, we didn't do it on purpose."

Jiang Ermei was anxious: "It's me, it's all me..."

Jiang Xi said sternly: "Okay, you two sisters are so close, so it's just right for you to be punished together. Each of you will be fined 50 cents. Go and get the money!"

Jiang Ermei was okay, but Jiang Sanmei was stunned and looked at her in disbelief.

Actually fined!

The sunburned little girl had regret and remorse written all over her face, but when she took one look at Jiang Xi's expression, she knew she couldn't refute it.

My eldest sister was fine before, but she has become more and more powerful since she got married. She usually talks and laughs and looks kind, but she is ruthless when she uses acupuncture. Now she becomes serious and inexplicably scary.

She had no intention of resisting, so she lowered her head and followed her second sister to get the money.

I never expected that I would be fined for bringing back a bamboo ginseng.

It's so terrible.

Pei's mother brought the meal over. Seeing that Jiang Xi looked unhappy, she whispered, "What's going on?"

Jiang Xi told the story, and Mother Pei was shocked: "Oh, these two kids are so brave, they actually ran into the mountains!"

“It’s a lesson that needs to be learned.”

She said it seriously. She was very strict in disciplining her children, otherwise Pei Hejun would not have been raised so well by her.

Just as she finished speaking, the two children who had gone into the house to get the fine came out. Mother Pei smiled awkwardly and went to the kitchen to serve the dishes.

Do not disturb your daughter-in-law from educating her younger sister.

She came out and saw the old man trying to go in, so she stopped him and said, "Don't go in, or you'll embarrass the child."

Although it is necessary to teach children a lesson, they also need to save face, especially girls, who are more delicate and sensitive than boys.

Father Pei looked confused: "Discipline the children? Aren't these two children very well behaved?"

Mother Pei whispered, "They went deep into the mountains and found a bamboo ginseng. It's a good thing. Xiaoxi said it can help the third child to replenish his body, but that thing grows deep in the mountains."

Father Pei also widened his eyes. After a while, he nodded: "It's time to teach him a lesson."

At the same time, he touched his head excitedly. It was a good thing that could nourish his son's body. These two children were at a disadvantage. He whispered, "Let's go buy some meat tomorrow and bring it back for the children."

"Okay." Mother Pei nodded with a smile.

In the main hall, the two sisters watched Pei's mother hide away. Knowing that they could not avoid a lesson this time, they felt even more depressed. They each took out fifty cents and held it high up to Jiang Xi.

Jiang Xi took it and put it directly in his pocket, then said, "Stretch out your hand. In addition to being fined, you will also be beaten. This will teach you a lesson."

Both of them: “!!!”

It’s so terrible!

Not only did he lose his money, he was also beaten.

However, no one here would refute Jiang Xi, so they could only accept their fate.

Jiang Xi found a chicken feather baton and hit them three times directly, but he was reluctant to hit them too hard. After all, they were the children he had raised for such a long time, and the key was that these two were usually sensible and well-behaved.

After the fight, both children burst into tears.

She didn't hit me hard, but being hit with a chicken feather beater really hurts!

Especially Jiang Ermei, who was crying silently.

Jiang Sanmei was sobbing.

Jiang Xi put the bamboo ginseng aside and pulled the two people to his side.

Jiang Sanmei pouted, somewhat reluctant but not resisting. Jiang Ermei lowered her head, not knowing what she was thinking.

But Jiang Xi guessed that the third sister Jiang had a stronger personality. Before, at home, although the three sisters were not loved, as the youngest, she still received a lot of special treatment compared to her two older sisters, and her personality was a little bit more coquettish.

Jiang Ermei is a more sensitive person. Living under someone else's roof, she would take risks to look for medicinal herbs, and thus found the bamboo ginseng, hoping to do her part.

Initially, Jiang Xi's understanding of these two sisters was limited to the original owner's memory. One was arrogant, and the other was silent. The original owner was busy studying, and because of the age difference, the three of them did not spend much time together. So she was afraid that these two children would be as noisy as the children of her relatives in her memory in her previous life, so she described her situation so seriously.

Unexpectedly, this caused more psychological pressure on Jiang Ermei.

Jiang Xi sighed and explained, "In my heart, nothing is more important than your lives. Bamboo ginseng is valuable, but if something happens to you, I don't dare to take it, so I don't want you to go to those dangerous places."

Jiang Sanmei's complexion improved a little, but she still felt a little aggrieved.

Jiang Ermei said nothing, but just secretly glanced at her, then quickly lowered her head.

"I know you want to help me more." Jiang Xi said softly. Thinking of the joy of the two children when they came in, she understood, but changed the subject: "But before you are eighteen years old, don't think about money. It's good enough to help with some work. Of course, the eldest sister is very surprised. Such a big bamboo ginseng costs a lot of money, so I still have to thank you. I will reward you ten yuan, and you two will split it equally. But now, this money will be kept by your sister. If you need to buy something extra, you can use this money. How about it?"

Jiang Ermei raised her head completely and shook her head hurriedly: "No, give them all to Big Sister, we don't want them."

This time even Jiang Sanmei refused: "Big sister, we don't want it. Give it to you."

Jiang Xi smiled: "I know, I'll keep the stuff, but I have to give the money. This is a good thing, and your brother-in-law really needs it to keep healthy. Don't be polite, I have money."

They wanted to say more, but Jiang Xi suppressed them and rubbed their heads: "Go wash your face and hands, and make sure to wash them thoroughly with soap. Diseases come from the mouth, do you understand?"

The two children walked over obediently. When they left the house, they looked back with their watery eyes, but when they saw her tough attitude, they said nothing.

Jiang Xi wanted to laugh when he saw the bamboo ginseng. He didn't expect that there would be bamboo ginseng in this mountain.

She really needed it. In addition to Pei Hejun, Pei's parents and herself could use it. These days, people are short of food and clothing, and their bodies always have some minor ailments. The original owner was fine before, but she had a hard time in the past three years. She had her first period at the age of sixteen, and then only once every few months, with no regularity, sometimes more, sometimes less, and she also had abdominal pain.

With nourishing things like bamboo ginseng, if she takes good care of herself, her body will get better.

Unfortunately, under the current conditions, she cannot preserve it perfectly. She can only use some of the fresh bamboo ginseng to make soup and preserve the rest by drying it.

At the dinner table, Jiang Xi told Pei's parents about the uses of bamboo ginseng and asked them to stew some soup with the bamboo ginseng in the next few days.

Pei's parents trusted her very much, especially for their son's sake, so they said without hesitation: "Xiaoxi, it's up to you to decide. Your father and I don't understand."

If there was one thing Jiang Xi liked most about the Pei family, it would probably be the open-minded attitude of Pei's parents. They trusted her and no longer had any doubts. They supported whatever decision she made, including her decision to become a doctor.

At noon, Jiang Xi was cleaning bamboo ginseng. When she saw Jiang Ermei and Jiang Sanmei about to go out with their hats on, she stopped them.

"From today on, unless I take you with me, you two can't go together, and the herb-picking thing has to be put on hold."

This is even more shocking than the fine just now.

The two were stunned. Jiang Sanmei was so anxious that she jumped up and down: "Sister, we don't dare to do it again. Please let us go!"

"No!" Jiang Xi refused decisively.

It was her negligence. She forgot that these two children grew up in the countryside and were very courageous. She was a little worried about letting them go out alone to collect herbs. It happened that she had bought all the medicines she needed on a daily basis, and the rest were not needed too much, so she could just make do with what she had.

Then she began to instruct them about household chores: "Sweep the floor. I'm going to dry some food. Go weigh the other herbs you picked..."

"Big sister!" Jiang Sanmei called out reluctantly.

Jiang Xi smiled faintly: "Go!"

Jiang Sanmei was furious and went to work in dejected manner.

Jiang Xi chuckled. The bamboo joint was not big, so he processed it quickly. He left half of it in the sun and gave the other half to Pei's mother to make soup in the evening.

Next time, she returned to the room and was in a dilemma for a while.

Each bamboo ginseng is sold for 40 points in the system. Now I have one, which is equivalent to saving a lot of points.

Jiang Xi was a bit greedy and wanted more. Generally, there must be better ones around the bamboo ginseng. Besides, bamboo ginseng is not as good as ginseng after all. One ginseng can be used for a long time, but bamboo ginseng is different.

The more she thought about it, the more restless she became.

If we can find a few more bamboo ginseng roots, wouldn't we be rich?

Jiang Xi calmed down, took Pei Hejun's hand, and called the system: "System, open the herbal medicine mall, I'll find some poison."

She didn't dare to go directly into the mountains because she needed her two younger sisters to lead the way. If something went wrong, she would be doomed.

You have to choose something for self-defense.

As a doctor, the best way to protect yourself is poison.

Come to think of it, when she was in middle school, she also learned how to make poison from the people in martial arts dramas and she still remembers the recipe.

However, just as she had this thought, the system had already actively recommended: [Host wife! Here is an anesthetic needle, 20 points each, auxiliary injection, and no trace left afterwards, do you want it? It can definitely kill a tiger with drugs! ]

Jiang Xi: “!”

Is there such a good thing?

Her eyes lit up. It was better not to make the poison herself. She looked at him expectantly: "Let me see!"

The system was very cooperative, and the interface quickly changed to the mall interface: [Second row, fifth]

Jiang Xi took a look and realized that this was the type of anesthetic commonly used in operating rooms. It was milky white, similar to milk, but actually quite powerful.

She hesitated, "Can it really be done in one shot?"

[Of course! The system never lies!] The system typed out a few words excitedly.

Seeing it so excited, Jiang Xi felt relieved and said calmly, "Okay, buy one shot."

System: [OK, 20 points have been deducted]

There was also a small anesthetic needle that looked like a toy in Jiang Xi's palm.

Two o'clock in the afternoon.

Jiang Xi came out and saw his two younger sisters sitting at the doorstep, dozing off out of boredom, the two of them snuggling up to each other.

Jiang Xi smiled and patted their heads: "You two should pack up and follow me to the mountains."

Jiang Sanmei stood up immediately and said, "Sister, can we go now?"

"Just this once." Jiang Xi said with a smile: "Do you want to go?"

"Go!" Jiang Sanmei nodded vigorously. Once is never too little, there will always be a second time. She excitedly pulled her second sister up, and the two of them went to get the tools together. They came out quickly and took Jiang Xi out, completely ignoring the scorching sun above their heads.

Peijia Village is actually quite far away from the nearby mountains. If you want to go there, you will pass through several villages, including Zhoujia Village, Linjia Village, and Jiangjia Village.

However, these villages are all on the side of the main road, so there is no need to go into the villages.

Jiangjia Village in particular is quite far from the main road here, but the villagers of Jiangjia Village have been working here recently, and the second and third sisters have met people from the village twice, which made her think about it more.

Because the final destination was the mountains, Jiang Xi did not ride a bike. He brought a hat, some food and water, and a small purse. He put some mosquito repellent powder on his two sisters, took a machete, and then set off.

She made the mosquito repellent powder herself and gave it to them on a regular basis, and her small purse contained the anesthetic needles provided by the system.

Jiang Xi tightly grasped her purse and walked through two villages with her two younger sisters. Then... her face didn't look very good anymore.

The dirt road was uneven and full of potholes, making it difficult to walk on, and there was also the big sun.

Jiang Xi even wanted to back out.

However, when you look at Jiang Ermei and Jiang Sanmei, they are wearing straw hats and would occasionally go to the roadside to pick some flowers to play with, chatting and laughing all the way, just like they were going on an outing.

She admired him deeply.

This physical strength is amazing.

Suddenly, someone called out, "Big sister?"

This voice is so familiar.

Jiang Xi's heart sank, but because of her damn muscle memory, she subconsciously turned back.

Sure enough, by coincidence, it was Zhang Xiuyun.
