Chapter 481 Splendid Countryside 11
"By the way, where's my aunt?"
"I heard my aunt fainted from worrying about it. Where is she now? Since I'm here, I might as well take her pulse!"
Lin Wanwan took the brown sugar water and drank a big gulp without any hesitation.
Life in the countryside is good in every way, except that the shortage of supplies is a bit serious.
Later, she could grow some sugarcane and make some sugar at home, so she wouldn't have to be reluctant to spend that little money to buy it in town.
Then raise more chickens and ducks, and a few more pigs, so that life at home will gradually get better.
It’s not about how much money you can make, but at least you can have whatever you want to eat immediately.
"Oh, yes, yes, how could I have forgotten about this? Look at my brain!"
"Mom, mom, are you awake?"
It was not until this moment that Qiao Dali remembered his unconscious mother.
He rushed into his mother's room and saw that the woman had slowly woken up.
Maybe the stimulation just now was a bit too much, and I felt a little dizzy at this time. I woke up, but I couldn’t stand up after sitting on the edge of the bed.
"Just let Auntie sit by the bed. I can feel her pulse like this."
Lin Wanwan followed him in and glanced around the room.
"Wife, I'll get you a stool!"
Zhou Yuesheng ran out with great insight, picked up a bench and placed it next to the bed.
"Auntie, do you feel dizzy, nauseous, or want to vomit?"
Lin Wanwan first observed Mrs. Qiao's expression and asked.
"Yes, she must have been frightened just now. She'll be fine after a while. Don't worry, my girl!"
Mrs. Qiao felt a little embarrassed.
When his son got into trouble, not only did he fail to help, he even became a burden.
It's her fault that she's not in good health. Ever since Old Man Qiao passed away, she has to take care of all the big and small matters at home, which is really stressful.
Now, my health is getting worse and worse, and I can’t do my work anymore.
"What are you talking about, aunt? I am Jiaojiao's sister-in-law, and we are also a family."
"We are one family and we don't talk behind each other's backs."
"Come, Auntie! Let me take your pulse!"
As Lin Wanwan spoke, she placed her hand on Mrs. Qiao's pulse.
As soon as he touched it, he found the problem.
"Ah, Auntie, you've been working hard these past two years, haven't you?"
When Lin Wanwan said this, Mrs. Qiao's eyes instantly turned red.
"Sister-in-law, my mother has been really busy these past two years. Jiaojiao and I have tried to persuade her many times, but she just won't listen."
"Hurry up and take a look at my queen. Is she suffering from some incurable disease?"
Qiao Dali felt bad and was worried that Lin Wanwan would tell him some bad news.
At this moment, my heart was in my throat. I just hated myself for not doing enough on a daily basis and making my mother work so hard.
“It’s not a big problem!”
"I'll write a prescription later, Auntie. Just follow my prescription three times a day and drink it for a month and you'll be fine."
As soon as Lin Wanwan finished speaking, Aunt Qiao looked embarrassed.
She is already old, if she dies, she dies, why waste the money on medicine?
You know, the medicine in the pharmacy is not easy to get.
If you go there once, you won’t be able to leave without a few taels of silver.
This is the case for ordinary people who are reluctant to use good medicines.
"Aunt, are you in trouble? If our family is not well off, please let my brother-in-law and I go to the mountains to dig herbs."
"It's just a waste of time. I can dig up some herbs and boil them back to take!"
When Qiao Dali heard this, he thought he could go to the mountains to collect herbs himself, so he wouldn't have to spend money in a pharmacy.
He has plenty of energy and is not afraid of hard work at all.
Worried that I would overthink it, I spoke immediately.
"Thank you for your hard work, sister-in-law. The taro in the field will be ready for digging in a couple of days. I'll send you two sacks later."
The Zhou and Qiao families have always had a good relationship. No matter what good things one family has, they will give some to the other family.
For example, when the Zhou family made dumplings in the evening, they would send a bowl to the Qiao family in advance.
Although the gift is not much, at least I can taste it.
This is the relationship between relatives.
"Thank you for your hard work!"
Lin Wanwan stopped, saying that Mrs. Qiao's bad habit was caused by overwork.
In addition, I usually live frugally and don’t eat well, so I feel overwhelmed.
It is said that man is iron and rice is steel, and you will feel hungry if you don’t eat for a meal.
Long-term hunger will put a great burden on the body.
Although Lin Wanwan does not advocate people being too fat, being too thin is not a good thing either.
What is lost is not only the flesh, but also the spirit.
"Mother, husband? Where are you? I've called the doctor!"
Zhou Jiaojiao's voice came from the door, and the people in the room immediately walked out.
"Jiaojiao, you're finally back. I was worried something might have happened to you on the way!"
When Mrs. Zhou heard her daughter's voice, she hurried out. She glanced at Zhou Jiaojiao and found that there was nothing wrong. She then breathed a sigh of relief.
"Mother, where is my husband?"
Before she left, her husband was still in so much pain that he couldn't stand up. How come he was nowhere to be seen now?
"Your husband's foot was healed by your sister-in-law. It's just a common dislocation, no big deal!"
Speaking of this, Mrs. Zhou was so proud.
In her opinion, her daughter-in-law's abilities were not much worse than those of a doctor.
"Since everything is fine, I'll go back first!"
The doctor is from the next village, and there is no doctor in their Qingshan Village.
Even though it was a wasted trip, the doctor did not show any displeasure and continued to speak in a friendly manner.
"Hey, Doctor Wang, since you're here, why don't you sit down for a while?"
"Jiaojiao, quickly make Doctor Wang a bowl of brown sugar water. Do you have any eggs at home? Pick up a few for Doctor Wang. We can't let him make this trip in vain."
Nowadays, when people cannot afford to pay, they will use other things to pay off their debts.
Although Doctor Wang made a wasted trip this time, it was late at night after all, and since the other party was willing to come, they had to accept the favor.
This person can offend anyone, but he cannot neglect the doctor.
You never know when you might need help from someone.
If the relationship becomes strained, they may not be able to come in time when you need them in the future.
"Yes, Doctor Wang, please sit for a moment. I'll get you some water."
To be honest, Wang Langxin also had some grudges in his heart.
He was just about to wash his feet and go to bed when this happened suddenly.
I was worried all the way there, but when I got home I heard that the person's foot was healed.
Although it was the man's own family who cured him, it was still very tiring for him to make this trip in vain.
But seeing that the Qiao family did things generously, they did not neglect him just because he did not contribute.
Doctor Wang immediately changed his opinion of the Qiao family.
This family knows etiquette, knows when to advance and when to retreat, and can get along well.
"I'm not helping much. I can't take so much from you. I'll just take two eggs."
Looking at the things in the basket, Doctor Wang waved his hands quickly.
He picked up two eggs from inside, turned around and walked out of the yard.
"Doctor Wang, I'm really sorry for what I did to you today. I'll have Dali go and apologize to you in person tomorrow."
Because Mrs. Qiao was not convenient to see people at this time, Mrs. Zhou took over her master's work.
Doctor Wang was happily sent out the door.
