"Oh, don't be so anxious. To be honest, I really like this, this Dong Tian Fu. Tsk, tsk, the name is also good. How about this, two taels, I'll give you two taels?"
Song Jinxiu: "Eight taels."
Goatee: "Too much, three or two."
Song Jinxiu frowned: "Seven taels. No less."
Goatee: "Four ounces."
Song Jinxiu: "Six taels is my bottom line."
Goatee: "Well, I'll give you five taels, which is a sky-high price."
Song Jinxiu sighed: "Okay, deal."
Song Jinxiu walked out of the pawnshop with five taels of silver. Goatee looked at her from behind, wondering why he was willing to take out five taels of silver.
But when he looked at the Dongtianfu crystal ball again, he suddenly smiled.
When Song Jinxiu came to the ox cart, Song Chunsheng asked nervously, "How much is it?"
Song Fuquan also came over and asked, "Are you a prostitute?"
Song Jinxiu nodded to Song Fuquan first, then waved her hand towards her brother.
Song Chunsheng looked at him and asked: Fifty taels?
Song Fuquan was surprised and said: Five taels?
Song Jinxiu nodded, "Well, let's go to the clinic."
Song Chunsheng's leg injury was indeed serious, and three senior doctors from the Li Family Clinic held a consultation and unanimously agreed that amputation would save his life.
Song Jinfang's younger brother was crying loudly, Song Fuquan was sighing, and Song Chunsheng had a dazed look on his face.
Is it true that what you fear will eventually come true?
Song Jinxiu was unwilling to give up. "Doctor, if the swelling of my brother's leg goes down, can't he be cured by bone setting? Why do you have to amputate?"
A young doctor explained: "His leg has been delayed for too long. If he had come two days earlier, maybe he could have been saved."
Two days earlier? Could it be that my brother's legs have been swollen for several days? Song Jinxiu looked at her brother in surprise.
Song Chunsheng smiled bitterly and said, "It was swollen five days ago, but not as serious as this. Yesterday..."
After Dad kicked him yesterday, his whole leg felt like an inflated pig bladder, and he didn’t even feel the pain afterwards.
Doctor Wang Qing added: "If the swelling in his leg doesn't go down, it will turn black soon. If it's not amputated, the whole leg will be damaged and he will fall into a coma and eventually die."
Song Jinxiu said anxiously: "Then hurry up and give him some medicine to reduce the swelling?"
Doctor Xiaoqing sighed and patiently explained, "Doctors are not gods, and we don't have any magic medicine. How can we say that the swelling can be reduced? Even if we use the best medicine, it will take time, right? But your brother's leg is not good."
“Wuwuwu, brother, I don’t want you to die, wuwuwu.”
Song Jinfang cried so hard that her nose was snotting. Xiao Qiu Sheng also started to tremble.
Song Jinxiu couldn't bear to watch it anymore, so she pulled her aside, tore the hem of her clothes, and wiped her snot and tears.
Who said there is not even a piece of paper here?
Her action made the little girl stare at her blankly, sobbing automatically and forgetting to cry.
Song Chunsheng looked at his weak sister and younger brother, sighed and said, "How much does amputation cost?"
The young doctor took a look at the clothes they were wearing and said, "It may cost about twenty taels."
Twenty taels, Song Chunsheng felt it was acceptable. After all, they have fifty taels now, right?
By spending twenty taels, he could still live. Although he couldn't do heavy work, at least he could look after his younger brother and give courage to his younger sisters.
"Okay, I agree to amputation."
"etc,"
Song Jinxiu looked at her brother's legs.
Although the leg was shiny and blue, it was not black due to necrosis.
"Brother, it's not the last minute yet, we shouldn't give up."
She begged the doctor again, "Doctor, what if we use the best medicine? Can it save my brother's leg? Don't worry, our family has money."
When they heard the little girl with patched clothes say that she was rich, everyone smiled sympathetically.
Doctor Li, the oldest doctor in the family, glanced at her. He had seen too many cases where patients' families were willing to sell everything they had to save their loved ones.
If we can invite Dr. Feng to help, spend a few thousand taels of silver, and use the best medicinal materials, maybe the leg can be saved.
But looking at these children, if they could come up with twenty taels to amputate and save their lives, they might end up deeply in debt.
But looking at the little girl's pleading eyes, forget it, let's just give it a try.
He checked Song Chunsheng's legs again and ordered, "Give him a compound decoction, internally and externally, and observe for two days."
In fact, in his heart, the child's leg could not be saved. The swelling prevented blood circulation, and amputation was only a matter of two days sooner or later.
He has seen many examples of this kind.
So he told the medicine boy, "Give them the medicine from the west storehouse. Save as much as possible."
Save your money and prepare for amputation.
With the advice of the old doctor, Song Chunsheng was admitted to the Li Family Clinic and started conservative treatment.
Song Fuquan went to the street to buy them multi-grain cakes, which made Song Jinxiu feel very sorry.
Song Jinxiu said embarrassedly: "Brother Fuquan, you see, we only cared about my brother's legs and didn't even think about treating you to a meal. We still have to let you pay for it. How much is it? I'll give it to you."
"What are you talking about? What's your situation now? How can I still ask you to pay?"
While eating the cake, he said to Chunsheng, "Brother Chunsheng, you stay here and get treated first. I'm not going back. Don't worry about the money. I'll go back and let Grandpa think of a solution."
If you don't leave now, it will be dark by the time you get home.
Song Chunsheng said, "Okay, go back slowly. As for the money, we have enough for now. Don't let the village head worry."
After seeing Song Fuquan off, Song Jinxiu began to boil the medicine.
There are people in the clinic who specialize in making medicine, but they charge extra.
The old doctor felt sorry for them because they didn't even have an adult. So we took care of them and let them make their own medicine, which could also save some money.
Knowing that the brothers and sisters were looked down upon because of their clothes, Song Jinxiu did not comment. It's not like they don't know how to make the medicine themselves.
But when she opened the medicine package, she frowned.
Although she was not a doctor, she had a senior brother in her previous life who was from a medical family. She even secretly planted some precious medicinal herbs for her senior brother in the space.
So through what she has learned, she can still tell the good from the bad of herbs.
Although the medicines given by the Li Family Clinic are in sufficient quantity, they are all leftovers and their efficacy is greatly reduced.
Song Jinxiu was dissatisfied and carried the medicine bag to the front hall.
At this time, the doctor in the hall had been replaced, so Song Jinxiu went to find the guy who prepared the medicine.
She put the medicine bag on the counter and asked, "Brother, I said I wanted the best medicine, why are there only scraps here? These medicines are effective, but the effects are too slow. My brother's leg is in urgent need of anti-inflammatory medicine. I need the best anti-inflammatory medicine."
Speaking of this, Song Jinxiu was stunned.
Anti-inflammatory? There are anti-inflammatory drugs in her space.
It has been more than a day since I came here. I was still digesting the experience of traveling through time, and I encountered so many strange things all of a sudden.
It was also because she was too nervous about her brother's legs. She felt vaguely that some of the original owner's emotions might still remain in her body.
Stimulated by this and that, she just instinctively knew that if she was sick, she should be rushed to the hospital, but she forgot that the medical conditions here were very different from those in her previous life.
Song Jinxiu said nothing and took up the medicine bag and left.
The medicine boy glanced at her back, smiled and shook his head.
As soon as he saw the packet of medicine, he knew what was going on.
All the herbs purchased by Li's Clinic must be screened before they can be put on the shelf.
Some of the scraps that are screened out will be collected and given to the poor people who have no money.
In fact, if you use more of these scraps, the effect is also good, but the price may be much higher. If you really have no money, we will give it to you for free.
When I first saw this little girl, I saw her clothes and then looked at the medicine bag she was carrying, and I knew that the medicine probably didn't cost money.
The little girl said she would leave halfway, maybe she also wanted to know these things.
That’s right, how can a beggar complain about the black bread?
