That night, Li Hui did not come back for dinner, and Cheng Xue ate a tasteless meal by herself, feeling worried.
Finally, at the beginning of Haishi, Li Hui came back and saw her reading the medical book with red eyes, which made her understand.
"You can go with me, but you have to protect yourself. I only have you in this place."
It was rare to hear his love words, Cheng Xue suppressed a yawn and nodded gently.
"Okay, I have the same cold syndrome as last time..."
"This time is different from cold syndrome. It is an epidemic disease." Li Hui corrected with a serious face. "At first it was discovered in time, but recently it has become more common, and the root cause of the epidemic has not been found."
"Have you found the water source?"
"I've looked at every well."
"What about the river? There are also those swamps in the north. This is all possible. I remember that the upper reaches of the Heimo River are in Gangka, Beiqi. Have you sent anyone to check?" Cheng Xue reminded.
After washing, Li Hui took off his shoes and got on the kang, lay down next to her and said:
"If it really happened in the Heimojiang River, then the epidemic is also spreading in Gangka, but the scout camp has not received any news at all."
"If we haven't got the news, it means there isn't one in the city. You can't be so careless, right?" Cheng Xue asked with a smile.
Li Hui naturally thought of this, but Xiao Song was the commander-in-chief of the military camp, and he, a local official, really couldn't stretch his hand that far.
Cheng Xue guessed his concerns, looked up at him and said:
"How about I write a letter as a doctor tomorrow? Then when we get there, we will know whether we go or not."
"That's okay." Li Hui nodded and kissed her on the forehead, "Fortunately I have you."
"Me too." Cheng Xue agreed softly.
That is to say, in the north, she can go out whenever she wants and do whatever she wants.
If she were in the capital, she wouldn't be as free as she is now. Even if Li Hui didn't stop her from going out, she would still lack interest. What's more, she wouldn't have the energy to deal with the princess in the capital, who is old and young.
There was nothing to say all night, and the next day Cheng Xue finished writing the letter and asked Dexi to send someone to send it to the military camp in the north as quickly as possible.
She prepared some clothes at home, as well as medicinal herbs such as mugwort, realgar, patchouli, and Chuanqiong.
Ji Shan Tang sent over a rush of medicine packages, and Yuan Tao's wife steamed a lot of vegetable dumplings.
"Madam, I know there is no shortage of food in the military camp, but these vegetable dumplings can be boiled with water to make vegetable porridge, which can satisfy hunger when necessary. There are five little girls who insist on going with you. No matter how hard I try to persuade you, I can only give them to you.
They will bring you and tell you face to face."
Cheng Xue guessed which five children they were. Many children in Jishantang were interested in studying medicine, but five of them were absolutely obsessed with it. Not only did they borrow medical books from her, they also volunteered to help in the medicine workshop, just to be able to do odd jobs for the doctor.
.
To take it or not to take it, she was very conflicted.
Five children came in and stood in a row.
Everyone looked at her firmly, saluted, and said in unison:
"I have met Madam, and asked Madam to allow us to go together. If Madam had not taken pity on me and took us to Jishan Hall, it is unknown whether we would still be alive in this world. Now that we are lucky enough to live a new life, we will definitely aspire to become Xinglin
Female doctor, life and death have long been forgotten, and the epidemic will not return to the city until the epidemic is over."
Seeing that the five children were all determined, Cheng Xue thought about it and finally agreed.
"You can go if you want, but you have to be obedient. If one of you doesn't listen, don't blame me for sending them back."
"Yes." The five children said in unison again.
Watching such a scene, Cheng Xue suddenly came back to reality. She had also taken interns, and the children who had just been interns were more energetic than the other, just like the five of them are so excited now.
"Bai Wei, give them a share of the clothes that the eldest lady left at home to make medicine. We will set off in three days, and the five of you will go back and continue studying and learning about medicine."
"yes."
Yuan Tao's wife watched the five people leave and said with deep concern:
"Madam, you're already very worried when you go there. Wouldn't it distract you to bring five more of them?"
"They won't be distracted. The five of them used to go to the medicine hall to do odd jobs, and later did odd jobs in the medicine shop. They have solid child skills. Don't worry, as long as they don't show off, I can guarantee that they will bring them back."
"Then please take care of yourself, madam. The master and I will wait for your return at Jishan Hall."
After those old men who twisted their teeth were sent away, the couple's life in Jishan Hall has become more and more smooth. The children are sensible and the elderly are cooperative, and they are no longer in a daze like before.
Cheng Xue nodded when she heard this, took out a banknote and handed it to Yuan Tao's wife, saying:
"Take some time to let Yuan Tao go around. If you find something suitable, buy twenty acres of fertile land on the outskirts of the city. There are so many children in Jishan Hall, farming is not a problem. Only by being self-sufficient can we help more children and elderly people."
."
"Didn't Madam say before that she wanted Ji Shan Tang to buy it herself? Although there isn't much money left in the book, it will still be enough if you can save it for three to five years."
After all, the price of land in the northern state capital is not high, much cheaper than in Liaodong.
Cheng Xue twirled the teacup and said worriedly:
"It's just an epidemic discovered by the health center now. If it spreads to Wadalu, there will be many elderly people and children who have lost their ability to act independently. We have to make preparations. After I leave, someone will send 20 dan of food to Jishan Hall. Remember to look for
If someone is really sent back, they will be placed alone for half a month as before, and then they will have contact with other children."
"Yes, I understand."
While they were talking, the five children came in after changing their clothes. Each of them was wearing a white slim-fitting long skirt, with the cuffs tightened to make it easier to work. Their hair was tied into a ponytail and pinned with a silver hairpin. They were clean, neat and cool.
Yuan Tao's wife couldn't help but nodded after seeing it, holding back her tears, and said:
"Everyone is so handsome, little girls. When you go out with the madam, you must be obedient and not cause trouble to the madam. Do you understand?"
"Yes, mother."
The children in Jishantang all call Yuan Tao and his wife father and mother. They also love their children very much and treat them as their own children.
Cheng Xue looked at her look and knew that the person in charge of Ji Shan Tang had made the right choice. With those twenty acres of farmland, they could support themselves even if the subsequent shops didn't send anything.
Everything is inevitable, no one's business will be smooth sailing, there will definitely be ups and downs, and she has to be on guard against it.
I thought that Yuan Tao's wife would take the five children back and give them proper instructions, but she didn't expect that she would leave them alone and leave wiping her tears.
Seeing that the children were all reluctant to leave, Cheng Xue did her own thing without saying a word.
It's not easy for a woman to be the most handsome man, and it's even harder for a woman to grow up.
In this case, let's start with "life and separation". Once you get used to this, you can then adapt to "death and separation".
It’s not that the doctor has no emotions, it’s just that after seeing it too much, he will naturally become accustomed to accepting it.
Cheng Xue came to the pharmacy, found all the recently made antipyretic pills, phlegm-reducing pills, etc. and packed them up.
The current epidemic is nothing more than these types of lesions. Cough first and then fever. Finally, due to long treatment time, other lesions develop, and there is no way to recover...
