Quickening her pace, Lin Qingqing caught up with the middle-aged man.
"Uncle, wait a minute." When she was about to catch up, she quickly shouted at the man's back.
The man who was walking dejectedly in front heard a sound coming from behind him. He thought his ears were wrong, but when he turned around, he found that there was indeed a young woman he didn't know chasing him.
Seeing him stop, Lin Qingqing quickened her pace and came to him panting, "Uncle, I just saw you coming out of the doctor's office. Did you encounter any difficulties?"
The middle-aged man looked at her warily, "Who are you? We don't seem to know each other."
Lin Qingqing was stunned for a moment, then laughed awkwardly twice. "Uncle is right. We don't know each other, but we're from the same world. I saw that when you came out of the doctor's office, you seemed quite sad. I just like to help people, and I can't stand seeing someone so sad."
I don’t know if her words hit the mark of what the middle-aged man was worried about. After a while, the defensiveness on his face was suddenly replaced by sadness. “Hey, what’s the point of saying this now? The person is almost dead, and there is no medicine. I’m almost fed up now.”
When Lin Qingqing heard his last words, her eyes secretly lit up in the corner where no one could see, and she continued to put on the same sad expression on her face, "Isn't it true? I've encountered the same problem you have before, but luckily I know an imperial physician from the palace. The ginseng pills he makes are really good. My family members took two pills, and their health, which was not good before, is now almost getting better."
While saying these words, she was also secretly looking at the middle-aged man's expression.
She was sure that when she finished saying those words, the middle-aged man's expression became excited for a moment.
"Comrade, do you know where the imperial physician is?" the middle-aged man asked anxiously.
Seeing the fish taking the bait, Lin Qingqing continued with an embarrassed look, "I know, but he doesn't want everyone to know about his affairs. You know, in this day and age, if people find out, his life might be in danger."
The middle-aged man immediately showed an understanding expression on his face, and said sympathetically, "I understand this, but my lady, I know you are a kind-hearted person. Can you ask that comrade to give me two ginseng pills? I can pay for it."
Lin Qingqing was happy in her heart, but she couldn't show it. In the eyes of the middle-aged man, the expression on her face looked like she was in an awkward situation.
Because of this, the middle-aged man believed even more in what she said about the ginseng pills.
"How about this, I have one here. You can take it back and let your family try it. If it works, you can come to Linjia Village in Xiahe Village to find me. My name is Lin Qingqing."
As soon as she finished speaking, she took out something wrapped in paper from her body.
As soon as the middle-aged man took it, he couldn't wait to open the contents. He bent down and smelled it, and a strong aroma of medicine and ginseng hit his nose.
Now he completely believed that the pill was made of ginseng.
In this era, ginseng is a rare and precious medicinal herb that is hard to find and cannot be bought even if you have money.
"How much is it, comrade? I'll give you the money." He put the pill into his pocket with an excited look on his face.
When Lin Qingqing saw the smile on his face, the corners of her mouth curled up. She smiled so brightly, it seemed that he was very satisfied with her ginseng pill.
"Give me ten dollars. Although it's a bit expensive, it's made with real ginseng."
The middle-aged man immediately reached out to interrupt her, "Don't say anything, I know, ten dollars, right? I'll give it to you."
As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately took out a big unity banknote from his other pocket and handed it over.
Lin Qingqing took the ten-dollar bill, and the corners of her mouth curved up unconsciously.
These ten dollars were the first money she earned since she came here. Although it doesn't sound like much, in the 1980s, these ten dollars could buy a lot of things.
The two men exchanged money and goods, and the transaction was quickly concluded.
Lin Qingqing took the money and quickly went to find the three little ones who were waiting for her in the hall.
"You've been waiting for a long time, come on, mom will take you to dinner."
"Mom, did you make money?" Xiao Qingwen asked with concern.
Lin Qingqing touched his head and said, "I made money."
"Mom, can I order something to eat? I want to eat braised pork. I just heard that the braised pork in the restaurant in front is delicious." Xiao Wenqing asked with his mouth watering.
"Okay, let's eat braised pork and go." Lin Qingqing picked up her soft and tender daughter Xiao Xiangxiang.
The mother and her two children walked to the door of the hospital lobby when suddenly a man's loud voice rang out from outside the door, "Move aside, please move aside, wait for help."
When Lin Qingqing, who was used to working in the emergency department, heard the sound, she knew that there must be a patient in danger of life coming in, so she quickly pulled her two sons to stand aside.
After a while, three men rushed in from outside, one of them was covered in blood.
"Doctor, where is the doctor? Come and save him quickly."
Soon two or three hospitals came over.
"This comrade cannot be saved. You should carry him back and take care of his funeral." After one of the doctors finished the examination, he spoke to the two men next to him with a look of regret on his face.
After hearing this, the two men's legs began to tremble in panic.
"Doctor, you have to save him. He became like this for the people. You must save him." One of the men had red eyes and grabbed the doctor's hand tightly and begged.
"Comrade, it's not that we don't want to save you, it's that we really have no other options. Although we doctors can save lives, we can't snatch people away from the devil."
After hearing this, the two men held their heads in their hands, their eyes full of despair.
Lin Qingqing watched from the side for a while, and while they were not paying attention, she secretly walked to the man covered in blood and quickly stuffed the ginseng pill in her hand into the man's mouth.
She was about to move her hand away when she suddenly met the half-open eyes of the man on the bed.
"You are a lovely person. I can't help you in any way. I just hope this thing can save your life." Not knowing whether he could hear this, Lin Qingqing turned around and took the three children out of the hospital filled with the smell of medicine while no one noticed.
Outside the hospital.
The mother and her two children finally came out.
"Mom, that uncle won't die, right? He looks so pitiful, covered in blood! It must be very painful." Xiao Xiangxiang said sadly as he walked while holding her hand.
