At this time, someone outside called out, "Is Sister Li Zhiqing here? My grandfather wants you to come over."
Li Xiyue took the silver needle and went outside the courtyard gate. Seeing a young boy, whom she did not recognize, she asked, "Who is your grandfather? What do you want from me?"
"My name is Xu Guoqing. My grandfather is a barefoot doctor in the village. I don't know why he called you, so he asked me to call you. Come with me quickly, or he will beat me again." Xu Guoqing said as he grabbed Li Xiyue and left.
Li Xiyue heard from the villagers that the barefoot doctor was called Uncle Xu Liu.
Did Uncle Xu Liu come to her to ask about the plowing ox?
Uncle Xu's house is very big, with six or seven rooms and a large yard surrounded by a fence. The yard is full of herbs drying in the sun, and you can smell all kinds of medicinal fragrance as soon as you enter.
Yes, it’s the smell of medicine.
To ordinary people, the smell of medicinal herbs is unpleasant, but to those who study medicine, the smell of medicinal herbs is fragrant.
"Grandpa, the person is here." Xu Guoqing shouted into the house and went into a room.
Soon, an old man with white hair and beard walked out of the main house, holding a bunch of herbs in his hand. Seeing the girl in the yard, he looked her up and down, nodded, walked forward and said with a smile: "Girl, I heard you can do acupuncture?"
Li Xiyue replied: "I learned from my grandfather for a few years, and I know a little bit."
Hearing the sound of a cow mooing, she looked over and saw the cow she had rescued that morning lying in the haystack at the corner of the wall. She walked over and asked, "How is the ox's injury?"
Xu Guoqiang said the cow was fine, but he was still a little worried because he hadn't seen it with his own eyes.
"You and Xiangyang received timely treatment, so nothing serious is wrong." Xu Laoliu also came over and said.
When Lao Niu saw Li Xiyue, he seemed to be struggling to get up.
"What's wrong with it?" Li Xiyue asked curiously when she saw its reaction so big.
"It recognized you as its rescuer."
Li Xiyue was surprised, no way?
Xu Laoliu patted the cow and said, "Don't get up. Let's heal our wounds first."
The cow really stopped moving.
"Can it understand human language?" Li Xiyue was surprised.
Xu Laoliu stroked his beard and said, "Everything has a soul. This cow often hangs out with people, so it's not surprising that it can understand human speech."
Li Xiyue thought about it and agreed.
She squatted down and stroked the cow's body. "Take good care of your injuries. Everyone is waiting for you to plow the fields."
"If you say that, it probably means it doesn't want to get better." Uncle Xu said.
Li Xiyue was puzzled: "Why?"
"Once it's done, there will be endless work to do. Are you happy with that?"
Li Xiyue realized it later and couldn't help laughing.
Uncle Xu Liu took her to the bench in the yard and sat down. "Girl, this old man wants to see your acupuncture techniques. Is that okay?"
"Sure." Li Xiyue did not refuse.
She took out a bag of silver needles from her body, opened it and placed it on the stool, looked at Uncle Xu Liu, took out the silver needles and inserted them into the acupuncture points on his head.
Uncle Xu was amazed to see that she had very fast hands, was very accurate in identifying acupuncture points, and acted maturely, which did not seem like someone of her age at all. He thought that she was indeed an apprentice of an old Chinese doctor, and was much better than him, a barefoot doctor who had changed his profession halfway.
What surprised him even more was that she actually saw that he had a headache and was giving him acupuncture to treat it...
