Chapter 386: Invite the strange young man to dinner!
A few people walked around East Street for an entire afternoon.
Gu Jinghuai will be on duty tomorrow. Today, the few of them planned to have dinner outside before going back. They said goodbye to their families before leaving in the afternoon.
A few people were preparing to go eat. When they passed by a pharmacy, they were almost hit by people thrown out from inside. Fortunately, Qin Zhizhi retreated quickly.
But the man was still thrown at her and Gu Jinghuai's feet.
The clerk in the drug store looked helpless and looked at the man as if he were a madman.
"Sir, please leave quickly. The pregnant woman just fainted because of you. A cesarean section is unlucky during the New Year."
The guy threw the person away and hurried back in as if he was chasing away the plague god, for fear of being harassed again.
The person who was thrown out was not angry. He skillfully brushed off the dust on his body. It was obvious that this was not the first time he was treated like this.
While brushing off the dust on his body, he lamented, "You have no vision. This is what our ancestors taught us, and you don't believe me."
He sighed helplessly and prepared to go to the next pharmacy to ask. He just wanted to save people, so why was it so difficult?
The man was a little sloppy, but he was quite handsome, but he was a little nervous when talking to himself.
Qin Zhizhi heard both the words of the pharmacy clerk and his mumbling. She stepped forward uncertainly to ask.
"Sir, is what that guy just said true? Are you really going to perform a cesarean section to deliver a baby?"
They were just about to leave when they were suddenly questioned by a veiled lady. The man looked at Qin Zhizhi and the others.
She had a kind face and was dressed in rich clothes. Especially the lady with a veil, her tone was full of curiosity and surprise, not sarcasm, but more like a request to verify something.
The man nodded for some unknown reason, and Qin Zhizhi was even more surprised.
"Sir, could we please go to the restaurant up ahead and chat? It's time for dinner, and I'm very interested in the method you proposed."
Qin Zhizhi wanted to verify whether this person was also a time traveler. If he really could perform a caesarean section to deliver a baby, it would be a good thing for women with difficult labor.
Now it was the man's turn to be surprised. He asked in disbelief, "Does this lady believe me?"
"The world is so vast, and there are so many wonders. I'm just curious. I wonder if you would be willing to tell me about it."
"Madam, please!"
After a brief surprise, the man made a gesture of invitation to Qin Zhizhi, indicating that he was willing.
Qin Zhizhi and Gu Jinghuai walked in front to lead the way, and several people entered the restaurant.
The restaurant belonged to the Wang family. The owner knew Qin Zhizhi and quickly came over to greet her.
"Take this young man to clean up first, give us a private room, and bring up all the restaurant's signature dishes."
"Hey, I'll arrange it right away."
"Xiao Liuzi, take this young man to clean up, and then go to the shop across the street to buy him a set of ready-made clothes."
"It's the shopkeeper, please come this way, sir!"
"Thank you!"
After expressing his gratitude, the man followed Xiao Liuzi.
"Madam Gu, Master Gu, please follow me!"
"Please lead the way, boss!"
The shopkeeper personally took a few people to the private room, and then went to the kitchen to give instructions.
Qin Zhizhi, Gu Jinghuai and others had just finished drinking a cup of tea when the waiter came back with the man.
"Thank you, ma'am!"
"You're welcome, take a seat!"
After changing his clothes, the man looked dignified and had the air of a nobleman. Qin Zhizhi felt that there was something behind this.
Just at this time, the waiter started serving the dishes. The man's stomach growled, and Qin Zhizhi knew that he must be hungry.
"We've been shopping all afternoon and everyone is hungry. Let's eat first."
The man nodded. God knows he was almost fainting from hunger. He hadn't eaten for a whole day and had used up all the money he had.
I originally planned to find a job in a pharmacy, but I was kicked out for saying the wrong thing.
Seeing his embarrassment, Qin Zhizhi smiled and said, "Sir, please feel free to do as you please. I've ordered all the signature dishes of this restaurant. All you can eat."
"Thank you, ma'am, for your hospitality!" The man stood up and saluted again.
"Let's eat!"
Qin Zhizhi picked up the first piece of food, and everyone started eating. Although the man was very hungry, he also observed the relationship between Qin Zhizhi and Gu Jinghuai subtly.
The cute little girl calls the man "Daddy" and "Madam" and "Mom", indicating that they are husband and wife, and the other three are their younger brothers and sisters.
Throughout the whole process, Gu Jinghuai just treated himself as a babysitter.
Regarding Qin Zhizhi inviting the man to the restaurant and arranging meals, he never expressed any opinions, and his heart and eyes were all about Qin Zhizhi.
The man couldn't help but marvel at it, and at the same time he accurately judged that the woman was the head of the family.
The shopkeeper had given specific instructions, so the dishes were served quickly. Qin Zhizhi was serious about eating, and for a while, everyone ate quietly instead of talking about anything.
After dinner, Gu Jinghuai handed Nian Nian to Gu Jingshu and others to play in the outer room, while he accompanied Qin Zhizhi and the man into the inner room to discuss things.
"Sir, have you ever performed a caesarean section on someone to deliver a baby?" Qin Zhizhi asked straight to the point.
"Madam, I am a doctor and have performed cesarean sections on several women. However, there was one woman who only managed to keep the baby and died."
"Because I lost the lawsuit, my family no longer allows me to perform cesarean sections on women with difficult labor."
The man looked very depressed when he said this.
"What happened next?" Qin Zhizhi asked curiously.
"Then I left home and traveled around to study medicine. I also conducted a lot of experiments on animals, but unfortunately everyone thought I was crazy."
The man said this with some self-deprecation.
"Where did you learn this secret technique of cesarean section?" Qin Zhizhi asked with some anticipation.
"Ma'am, to be honest, my family has been practicing medicine for generations. My ancestors even performed cesarean sections to deliver babies. Later, because of a fatality, this medical skill was banned in the family."
"I've always been curious, so I secretly read the medical manuals of my ancestors and studied them diligently. When I saved the first woman and child, I thought I could be like them, but I didn't expect something bad would happen later."
"After the accident, my family forbade me to use this method to save people again, so I secretly left home. People didn't accept me, and I had spent all the money I brought with me. I thought of finding a job at a pharmacy, and then you see what happened."
The man felt a little embarrassed when talking about his predicament.
Qin Zhizhi roughly understood the situation from the man's narration. Although he was not a time traveler, his ancestors should be.
"Sir, I'm very interested in what you've said. If you trust me, I can help you find a job in the clinic."
"And you can continue to study caesarean sections, what do you think, sir?"
"Thank you, ma'am!"
The man was very grateful. He didn't expect that Qin Zhizhi not only believed him, but was also willing to recommend a clinic to him.
"It's too late today. Let's meet at the Wang Family Clinic tomorrow morning. Here's fifty taels of silver. Young Master, stay at the inn tonight. We'll arrange accommodations for you tomorrow."
"If there's anything urgent, you can come find me at the Qin Mansion!"
"Thank you, Madam. This money is a loan from you."
"Okay, then it's settled. See you tomorrow. We're taking the kids out today, so we'll be back early. That's all for now."
"Farewell, Madam!"
Qin Zhizhi and her group said goodbye to the man and rushed to the mansion.
