Chapter 038: The first serious patient
Thinking of this, Jiang Yu suddenly wanted to meet his savior and see her true face.
"It's delicious. Thank her for me!"
"You should thank her. If she hadn't insisted on saving you, you might have become a meal for the beast. I didn't intend to help you. After all, people like you are definitely not ordinary people. My family is made of common people and cannot withstand the turmoil. We just want to live a stable life.
But she's right. I'm a doctor, how could I watch a life disappear right before my eyes? Even if there's only a 10% chance of saving it, I have to try. She said you're not a bad person. Although I don't know why she thinks so, I've benefited a lot from it. You're the first serious patient I've ever had in my life. I don't regret saving you!"
Su Mu spoke lightly, as if he was born with such a calm temperament. Even though Jiang Yu couldn't see, he could vaguely outline the image of Su Mu in his mind.
He curled his lips and smiled. Isn't he a bad guy?
"Doctor Su, can my eyes be clear again?"
Jiang Yu thought, if I can't see it for the rest of my life, wouldn't it be a pity not to be able to see the true face of my benefactor?
She is so sure that she is not a bad person, it would be a pity if I could not see her!
"Your eyes were blinded by lime, but fortunately they were treated promptly and no damage was done to the root cause. Just wash them frequently with warm water and you'll be able to see clearly again in a few days."
"That's all very well. However, as Doctor Su said, I'm no ordinary commoner. I just have a richer family. I've come to the King of Hell this time, and I can't repay you for saving my life. Doctor Su and his family are welcome to make any requests. Gold, silver, jewelry, or delicacies. As long as Jiang can do it, I will definitely give it to you!"
There wasn't much he could give, just these material things.
The purpose of life is to have food, clothing, shelter and transportation. Providing them with a comfortable life is a natural thing.
"No need for that. We're not the kind of people who would repay a favor. We wouldn't feel comfortable spending the gold, silver, and jewelry we receive from others. Besides, it was my sister who insisted on saving you, and she paid for the medicine. I was just using you as a training exercise. If you insist on repaying me, why not ask my sister in person and see what she wants?"
This was the first time Jiang Yu had seen someone who was not greedy for money. He found it very interesting.
In this world, it is rare to find people who can stay away from the temptation of money.
"In that case, I will go and ask your sister in person when it's convenient!"
"In a few days, I'll be away on business, and I'll only be back twice a month. I'll be away from home. I've written down all the rules you need to pay attention to on a piece of paper. My three brothers will take good care of you. We're loyal people, and since we saved you, we'll take care of you until you recover!"
It turned out that what Su Mu was writing and drawing on the paper was actually notes for patients.
"Thank you very much. Doctor Su, please make a list of all the medicinal herbs used in the Su family, the food consumed, and the consultation fees required by ordinary doctors. I will pay you the corresponding silver. You treat patients and save lives, and I pay your consultation fees. It is only right!"
Jiang Yu still had a conscience. Su Mu raised his eyebrows. Since it was a medical fee, he should collect it. He would not be polite about it. After all, this was the first serious patient he treated, so it was necessary to collect the medical fee.
Of course, no one else knew about the conversation between the two in the room. Su Wan and his brothers were happily eating meat.
Tomorrow the third brother will go up the mountain to chop firewood, and the eldest, fourth, and fifth brothers will stay with her to make soap.
She hadn't had time to ask her second brother which Chinese herbs were good for hair and could be added to soap recipes.
But it’s too late today, let’s talk about it tomorrow.
"Wanwan, I'll help you with some work these few days. Big brother will be going back to the academy in a few days. Next year will be the imperial examination, which takes place every three years. We can't be careless. I'm afraid I'll have to stay in the academy to study for a while until the end of the year!"
Su Jing's vacation is almost over. He has been getting along well with his new sister for nearly a month, and he has roughly figured out Wanwan's temperament. She is a smart and simple girl with a delicate mind, and is less troublesome than Yueyue.
"Brother, just study hard and get a good academic score. I will be obedient and listen to you."
Su Jing nodded and put a few pieces of meat with less fat into Su Wan's bowl.
"Wanwan, don't worry, these hard days won't last long."
Su Jing was just thinking that his little sister had been used to a life of luxury since she was a child, but when she returned to their impoverished home, she did not complain at all, and even tried every means to help the family pay off the debts without any complaints. She was also very considerate and took care of her brothers, encouraging them and affirming them. How could he not work hard for such a good sister and let her continue to live a hard life?
"I believe in you, big brother!" Su Wan smiled sweetly.
She was also happy from the bottom of her heart. At least now, her elder brother was on her side, and her efforts during this period were not in vain.
…
The next day, Su Chen went up the mountain early with his axe. Under the pretext of chopping wood, he went hunting in the mountain with Uncle Jiang. They planned to bring back some wild game. If there was any left, they would eat it, and if there was any left, they would sell it for money.
He also wanted to save more money for emergencies. With so many men in the family, he relied on his youngest sister to earn money. It would be too shameful if this were made public.
Ever since Su Yun and Su Yi learned how to make soap, they basically didn't let Su Wan do anything. Most of the time, they were the ones doing it, and Su Wan watched from the side. If he found anything wrong, he would call them in time.
But this time, she wants to make the new product, floral soap, herself, still using a round mold. She will first make a few dozen to test the waters. If they sell well, she will increase market demand.
After paying off the debt, I didn't have much money left, and I had to buy a lot of raw materials. The almond oil I bought last time could make 60 yuan this time, and I had to make half almond and goat milk soap, and half floral soap. I also had to continue making lard and goat milk soap, and the remaining lard could make 120 yuan.
They agreed to deliver the goods ten days later. After several soakings, the osmanthus almond oil she had soaked was already filled with floral fragrance. The fragrance even penetrated the crack in the door and went into Jiang Yu's nose.
The whole yard is filled with the fragrance of osmanthus, as if there are several osmanthus trees planted there. The fragrance of osmanthus is so strong that if you walk around in it twice, your body will be covered with the fragrance of osmanthus.
She went to Uncle Jiang's house several times, and one of the osmanthus trees in Uncle Jiang's house was almost plucked bare by Su Wan, but for the sake of his apprentice's face, he didn't say anything. What's more, Su Wan bribed him and gave him new products for free every time.
You know what, this thing is quite useful and washes clothes very cleanly.
