Chapter 32 Selling Snake Gallbladder
"Doctor Liu, Zhao Cui was bitten by a snake."
Doctor Liu rushed over upon hearing this. Seeing the wound was black, he frowned and asked, "What kind of snake bite?"
Ye Rou was well prepared and took out the snake's body for Dr. Liu to see.
"It's not a venomous snake." Doctor Liu breathed a sigh of relief. He looked at the wound again and said, "With prompt treatment, it's fine now."
He used saline to flush Zhao Cui's wound, cleaning out any remaining toxins. Seeing clothes wrapped around her elbows, he asked, "Who wrapped this?"
Ye Rou stepped forward and asked, "I'm pestering you. Is there something wrong?"
Doctor Liu showed his admiration. "No, it's very standard. How did you know to wrap it here?"
Ye Rou: "I've seen others do this."
Doctor Liu bandaged Zhao Cui's wound and caught a glimpse of the snake's body. "Would you like to sell the gallbladder of this snake?"
Ye Rou's eyes showed surprise, "Sell."
Dr. Liu gave Ye Rou fifteen dollars.
Ye Rou happily accepted it, as it was the first money she had ever earned.
Doctor Liu found a bottle of white wine, pierced the snake's gallbladder, mixed it into the white wine, tilted his head back and drank it, sighing with satisfaction, "It's a great tonic!"
Ye Rou retreated and truly admired Dr. Liu.
"Bang!"
A group of people rushed in from outside the door, "Doctor Liu, help!"
Two people covered in blood were carried in.
Doctor Liu rushed over and examined the injured man. "Why are you injured so badly?"
"A fight broke out." The person who brought her here explained, staring at Ye Rou in a daze.
The two injured people screamed and Doctor Liu was in a panic.
Ye Rou followed over to help, cleaning the wound, applying medicine, and bandaging it, her movements skillful and calm.
Doctor Liu looked appreciative.
After watching Ye Rou and Zhao Cui leave, Dr. Liu closed the clinic and went to the village committee.
——
Ye Rou sent Zhao Cui home and gave her half of the money from selling the snake gallbladder. Zhao Cui refused to take it, saying, "You killed this snake. I can't have it."
Ye Rou threw the money into her bamboo basket and ran away.
Just as Zhao Cui was about to chase after him, Ye Rou turned around and shouted, "You can't run because of your wound!"
Zhao Cui stopped.
Wang Hongjun heard the noise and came out. Seeing Zhao Cui's wrist wrapped in gauze, he asked anxiously, "What's wrong with your wrist?"
Zhao Cui told Wang Hongjun what happened today and stuffed the money into his pocket. "Go give it back to Ye Rou later."
Wang Hongjun was very grateful to Ye Rou. Including the wedding banquet, his family owed her twice.
They absolutely cannot accept this money.
"I'll send it over in a moment."
——
Zhao Congwu really couldn't run anymore and was panting with exhaustion.
The man following behind him continued to walk at a leisurely pace.
His face turned pale and he was completely emotionally broken: "Jiang Chen, you are crazy!"
Jiang Chen stepped out from the shadows, his handsome features shrouded in hostility, his eyebrows and eyes bloodshot. "I warned your sister that if she comes to bother me again, I will cut off one of your legs."
After hearing what Jiang Chen said, Zhao Congwu's hatred for Zhao Wan reached its peak.
Jiang Chen raised his leg and walked slowly towards Zhao Congwu.
Zhao Congwu yelled hysterically: "Then why me!"
Jiang Chen smiled slightly, "Because you are the biggest bastard."
After saying that, he swung the hoe and smashed it down hard.
Zhao Congwu screamed and fainted.
Zhou Liang ran in from the alley, "Brother Jiang, that family has been settled."
He glanced at Zhao Congwu and saw that his knee was broken and there was a pool of urine under him, so he looked away in disgust.
This beast targeted his teacher's family. That family had a Buddha statue passed down from their ancestors, and he used this as leverage. He raped all three girls in the family, the youngest of whom was only twelve years old, for two whole years!
This kind of bastard deserves to be beaten to death.
Thinking of the miserable plight of that family, Zhou Liang grinned evilly and kicked Zhao Congwu hard in the lower body.
Zhao Congwu twitched while in a coma.
——
Ye Rou rushed back, but Jiang Chen was not there.
If the picked mushrooms are not eaten immediately, they will definitely go bad. Ye Rou washed the mushrooms, cut them into slices, put a little oil in the pot, poured different types of mushrooms into the pot and stir-fried them, added some seasonings, and after they were slightly fried, poured in clean water and simmered them.
Seeing that the pot was about to boil and Jiang Chen had not returned yet, Ye Rou took two pieces of firewood and went to the yard to wait.
Before Jiang Chen entered the room, he saw Ye Rou standing at the door.
Ye Rou breathed a sigh of relief when she saw him come back. She wanted to go up to him and ask him where he had been, but she was afraid that he would be annoyed. After hesitating for a moment, she went back to the kitchen.
She lifted the lid of the pot, and the mushroom soup was milky white, fresh and fragrant. She poured the prepared noodles into it, turned around and saw Jiang Chen standing at the door.
"We'll be eating soon."
Jiang Chen responded.
The two of them tacitly agreed not to mention what happened last night.
The meal was ready, and the two of them ate face to face in silence. The atmosphere was eerily quiet.
After dinner, Jiang Chen took the reserved dishes and left.
Ye Rou called out to him, "Jiang Chen."
Jiang Chen curled his lips slightly and turned to look at her.
Ye Rou handed the money in her hand to Jiang Chen, "I'll return you seven yuan first. Little by little, I'll be able to return you two hundred yuan soon."
After she finished speaking, Jiang Chen remained silent for a long time. Ye Rou looked up, and Jiang Chen's eyes were very cold and heavy, with a chill that could freeze someone to death.
He is angry.
Jiang Chen didn't say a word, turned around and walked out the door, his footsteps were particularly heavy.
Ye Rou was confused. Why was he still unhappy after she returned his money?
It is said that a woman's heart is like a needle in the sea, and it is impossible to fathom it. In her opinion, Jiang Chen's heart is comparable to the Mariana Trench, and even if you fall into Mount Everest, you will never find the bottom.
"Men are so inexplicable."
She couldn't figure it out, so she simply stopped thinking about it.
She clicked on the system, and because she had eaten the melon of Widow Jiang and Jiang Yu, Ye Rou got a chance to draw a lottery.
She clicked it.
Put your hands together, close your eyes and pray, "Don't be pink!"
Her eyes slowly opened, and there was a green light in front of her!
Not pink!
Green [Medical Skills]!
Countless prescriptions and cases of ancient miracle doctors appeared in Ye Rou's mind.
Very good!
Ye Rou studied Western medicine, which relies on equipment and medicines, while Chinese medicine is the opposite. In this era, Chinese medicine is more suitable than Western medicine!
——
The milky white mushroom soup was placed on the table, overflowing with fresh fragrance, making people's mouths water.
The soup was slightly cool, just right for sips. Wang Guoping took a sip, and the rich flavor of the mushrooms washed over him. The soup had only salt in it, and the rest was the unique umami flavor of the mushrooms.
Wang Guoping couldn't stop after taking one bite, and kept eating one bite after another.
Among these four people, only Zhou Yuqing's ancestors were wealthy, and the chef in his family was a retired imperial chef.
He had eaten all kinds of delicacies from land and sea since he was a child, but he was stunned as soon as he took a sip of the mushroom soup.
It’s so delicious that you want to swallow it. Add a chopstick of noodles, the noodles are chewy and elastic, and absorb the deliciousness of the mushroom soup. Take a bite, the chewy noodles are wrapped in the rich soup, full of surprises.
Zhou Yuqing's tears came out. It was worth it if he could eat such delicious food again in his life.
Zhou Yuqing ate without even raising his head.
Li Weijun had the most serious expression, but his hands were moving quickly.
The last old man was still stubbornly curled up in bed and refused to eat. Zhou Yuqing stared at his food and said, "This soup won't taste good if it gets cold. I'm sorry and helped him. We can't waste food."
He spoke with great righteousness and moved quickly, but he did not succeed because three people pressed down the bowl at the same time.
Wang Guoping spat at Zhou Yuqing and said, "Don't think you can have it all to yourself."
Li Weijun nodded in agreement.
Zhou Yuqing was unwilling to give in, so he had no choice but to let Wang Guoping divide the bowl of soup into three equal portions. He would not accept if anyone got any less.
The three of them almost got into a fight over stuttering, and Jiang Chen sat aside with a sullen face and said nothing.
After finishing his meal, Wang Guoping looked at Jiang Chen with particular favor, and his tone was unusually kind, "Are you troubled by something?"
Jiang Chen glanced at him and did not deny it.
Zhou Yuqing said a poignant line, "The exquisite dice are filled with red beans, and I wonder if you know how deep my love for you is. Jiang, you are trapped by love."
Li Weijun snorted coldly, "A real man should be upright and honest. Getting bogged down in the affairs of his children is a sign of no future."
Jiang Chen didn't know what he was angry about, but he felt very annoyed.
He thought of Ye Rou saying someone was knocking on the door, so he didn't stay any longer. He packed up the dishes and left.
Zhou Yuqing glared at Li Weijun.
Li Weijun noticed it keenly, "Are you glaring at me?"
Zhou Yuqing: "Not only will I glare at you, I'll also scold you. Jiang brat is cold-hearted and indifferent. He's willing to take care of us old guys because we have what he needs. Now that Jiang brat has someone he cares about, he's softened his heart, and our food has improved. This is a good thing. Don't discourage him."
"That's right." Wang Guoping nodded. "Old Zhou, you're finally reliable for once."
Li Weijun said disdainfully, "You two are really capable of satisfying your appetite."
Zhou Yuqing retorted, "If you have the guts, don't eat the food that Jiang brat brings you next time."
Li Weijun remained silent.
Ye Rou's cooking skills completely captured the hearts of the three old men, but she herself didn't know it yet.
