"I'll remember that. Thank you, doctor!"
Luo Mingkuan said gratefully.
He knew his own limitations. As a peasant, he would never dare to become related to them.
His wife had said that her third uncle's daughter was a miraculous doctor and also a county lady, but he understood that it was not something he could just casually establish a relationship with.
"Miss, you are so beautiful?"
Luo Ziqiao praised Huo Jinxiu in a baby voice.
"Haha... Really, am I really beautiful? But, I'm not your sister, I'm your aunt. Remember, from now on, you have to call me aunt, don't mess up the generations."
Huo Jinxiu laughed out loud when Luo Ziqiao praised her, but she still corrected the relationship.
If she were the elder sister, she would call her Sixth Sister-in-law instead of Sixth Aunt. She didn't want to be a generation lower than her.
"Auntie, I have such a young and beautiful auntie."
Luo Ziqiao said happily.
"By the way, Sister Jinxiu, when did Zhijun and Mr. Huo get married?"
Gao Zhishan just came back from boiling water, and when she heard what her son said, she asked Huo Jinxiu.
Because her son and father-in-law had a fever, and because her cousin was busy seeing a doctor, she had no time to ask her cousin.
"Sister, Sixth Sister-in-law and Sixth Brother are not married. They are just engaged. This is an engagement between our family and the Sun family."
Huo Jinxiu explained.
"Where are my third uncle and third aunt? Shouldn't we be engaged with them? Why is it my third aunt's in-laws? Also, have you met my parents? Are they in Taizhou?"
Gao Zhishan asked Huo Jinxiu excitedly.
"Sister, let's wait for Sixth Sister-in-law to tell you this."
Huo Jinxiu didn't know how to tell her. Should she tell her that her parents were murdered? She was afraid she couldn't bear it.
It would be better for Sixth Sister-in-law to tell her about this matter, as she is an outsider.
After Huo Jinxiu finished speaking, she ran away in a hurry without waiting for Gao Zhishan to ask any more questions.
Gao Zhishan felt uneasy when she saw Huo Jinxiu fleeing in panic, but since her son was sick, she put aside her uneasiness and took care of her son wholeheartedly.
Gao Zhijun and Tao Yuanzheng have been treating patients with fever. Only those with severe fever can be hospitalized, while those with mild fever are given medicine and herbal medicine to reduce fever and are told to go home.
There were not enough rooms in the inpatient department, so the backyard was vacated for patients with fever to stay.
Only after seeing the doctor did Gao Zhijun have time to visit her cousin.
"Cousin!"
When she saw Gao Zhishan, Gao Zhijun greeted her.
Then he walked to Luo Ziqiao's bed, sat down and took his pulse.
Then he went to the bedside of Luo Mingkuan's father, Luo Hu, and took his pulse. He had many hidden illnesses.
"Cousin, my nephew is fine. My uncle not only has a cold, but he also has a number of underlying illnesses."
Gao Zhijun told Gao Zhishan the truth.
"Dad has some hidden illness, is it serious?"
Gao Zhishan and Luo Mingkuan asked Gao Zhijun anxiously.
"It's not serious. These illnesses are probably from when I was young. I can cure them. Now I'll cure the seasonal cold first and regulate my body before I treat other illnesses."
Gao Zhijun explained.
"Sister, brother-in-law, where are you and your family staying in Taizhou?"
Gao Zhijun asked Gao Zhishan and Luo Mingkuan.
"My family fled to Taizhou due to famine and settled here in the suburbs south of the city, forming a new village with villagers from many other villages.
By the way, my fourth uncle’s daughter Gao Zhidan is also with me, we live in the same village.”
Gao Zhishan briefly talked about fleeing famine and also said that Gao Zhidan was also here.
She asked anxiously and excitedly, "Zhijun, where are my parents? Are they here?"
"I'm sorry, grandma. My eldest uncle's family, my second uncle's family, my fourth uncle's family, my parents, my eldest brother and his wife were all killed by bandits, leaving only my nephew Yuxuan and me. At that time, I carried my nephew on my back into the mountains to dig wild vegetables. When I came down, I saw that they had been killed by bandits. I could only hide and wait until the bandits left before I dared to come down to bury them."
Gao Zhijun recounted what happened heartbrokenly, tears streaming down her face.
She was not pretending, it was the remaining consciousness of the original owner.
Whenever the original owner's parents are mentioned, they will be stirred by the original owner's remaining consciousness and become sad.
"Dad! Mom!"
Gao Zhishan cried so hard that she almost fainted.
Luo Mingkuan's eyes moistened, and he felt very sad. Those were his father-in-law, mother-in-law, and his eldest brother-in-law's family. After their death, his wife no longer had a family to return to.
Luo Hu's eyes were wet too. His in-laws were gone just like that! He was also very sad.
"My dear, the dead cannot be resurrected, so please accept my sorrow. Don't cry anymore. If you cry, it will hurt your body. What will I do? What will happen to Qiao'er?"
Luo Mingkuan comforted Gao Zhishan.
My father-in-law and his family are not around, but my wife still has his family.
"Sister, my brother-in-law is right. The relatives are gone, and the living relatives still have to live. You have to be vigilant, otherwise my brother-in-law will worry."
Gao Zhijun also comforted Gao Zhishan.
"I know. I'll pull myself together."
Gao Zhishan looked at her youngest son and said.
"Zhidan is here, let's get together tonight."
"Brother-in-law, I'll have Qinglong take you back and tell your family. Then I'll bring Sister Zhidan and your children over here. You'll stay here tonight, and we sisters can have a good time together."
Since the original owner's cousins are all in Taizhou, it can be considered a kind of fate, so she will get together with them on behalf of the original owner. As for whether to help them or not, it depends on their character.
Gao Zhijun called Qinglong and gave him some instructions. Only then did he drive the carriage carrying Luo Mingkuan out of the clinic and head in the direction he pointed.
Luo Mingkuan and his family lived in the south of the city, where all the people were poor.
The places arranged by Magistrate Zhang were all wastelands. The places were not as big as Huojia Village, but there were more people than in Huojia Village.
They had just arrived and were living in wooden houses that they had built themselves.
