The peasant girl who escaped the famine: pick up the leak and pick up a prince

Chapter 131 There is a plague

A man in black clothes and a small round cap looked at Yu Maimai disdainfully, clearly full of contempt.

Yu Maimai saw this kind of guy a lot when he was doing business, so he naturally wouldn't pay attention to it. Who knew, when she didn't pay attention, this guy came up and pushed her.

Yu Maimai was very angry, such a young man simply ignored her, even if she ignored her, how dare she push her?
"What do you want to do? What's the matter, don't I look like a doctor? Could it be that your hospital has nothing but medical treatment?"

The little servant checked his waist with both hands, pointed to the plaque on the door with a domineering look, and said, "You can see clearly, this is a place for the common people to see a doctor. Now that there are so many common people, you are still standing here, clearly It's just messing around."

Yu Maimai glanced at the boy curiously, sneered, pointed at himself and said, "What's the matter, what do you think I'm not like a commoner?"

"Look at you, you're so fat, you don't look like a commoner, and then look at these poor people, which one is not thin and only bones are left, and then look at you, fat and strong, it's not too much Well, now that the common people are in trouble, a fat man like you is naturally lagging behind?"

Yu Maimai opened her mouth angrily, and even ran out of words. What this young man said was not wrong. She has indeed gained a lot of weight. What can she say? Healed first, and the resentment that was nestled in the stomach just now dissipated in an instant.

Despite this, Yu Maimai still mustered up the courage to say: "Let me ask, does your medical center collect medicinal materials?"

The expression on the boy's face suddenly changed, and he said falteringly: "I don't know what herbs you have. To tell you the truth, our medical center really needs herbs now. I still need to ask for the specific herbs that are lacking." Go into the room and ask our shopkeeper, please wait a moment."

At this time, Yu Maimai had no anger at all, and nodded: "Okay, I'll wait here for a while."

After a while, a man in a blue robe came out, holding a smoking pot in his hand, looked at Yu Maimai at the door, and said with a smile, "Do you have any medicinal materials to sell?"

"Well, I have apricot pits and hairy peach pits here, I wonder if you need them here?"

Hearing that it was an apricot core, the shopkeeper's eyes widened instantly; Hmm: "Is it really an apricot core?"

Yu Maimai grabbed a handful of apricot pits from the back basket, and they were all top-notch apricot kernels, and he stretched out his hand to show the shopkeeper in front of him.

The shopkeeper glanced at it, and immediately said with a smile: "Oh, it's really timely. Our pharmacy just needs such medicinal materials, so you brought them here. It's really timely. Come on, come in, the price of peach stones is also high." Almost, come in and let's talk slowly."

Before Yu Maimai could react, he was pulled in by the shopkeeper.

He sat down on a long bench, looked around, and found that the business of the pharmacy in front of him was really good, so he said casually: "Boss, the business of your people's pharmacy is really good."

"Hey, to be honest, our store is now a continuous loss-making business. In addition to the current plague, our store sees a lot of patients, but the medicinal materials have always been in a deficit state, but don't worry, as long as You have apricot pits, hairy peach pits, and we won't lose you a penny."

Yu Maimai didn't know why, but he admired the shopkeeper very much, so he said, "Since this is the case, I don't want to say anything. Even if I raise donations for the people of the whole city, I don't need money. Already, if you lack any medicinal materials here in the future, just tell me."

The shopkeeper looked astonished, looked at the village woman in front of him, and said with great admiration: "How can this work? I am happy to lose a little money alone, but you, if you lose money, the family There is no way to live, no, how about this, I will give you a home for all, whether it is an apricot pit or a peach pit, five cents a catty, how about it?"

Yu Maimai is a straightforward person, and immediately shook his head: "No need, shopkeeper, you can lose money for the common people, such a big shop, and these labor costs, which one is free, for me, it is It’s a small business, just don’t make any money, and I’m doing my part.”

The shopkeeper immediately said happily: "I really didn't expect that you are so generous. Thank you. I really thank you for the medicinal materials for the people in the whole city. Are you really a good person?"

Yu Maimai believes that at this time, if he can do something for the common people, it should be done.

The shopkeeper, Yu Maimai, sent him out, pointed to the people in line and said, "Look, the people who come to us now are all infected with the plague. It's a pity that every pharmacy in the city is full of people. There is no one who is willing to help the common people sincerely while selling medicine under the influence of the wind, so I never thought that you would be willing to provide these medicinal materials for free?"

Yu Maimai waved his hand and said: "Shopkeeper, if you lack any medicinal materials, just tell me that during the period of the plague, I will not charge you any fees. You can work for the people. People, it’s still possible.”

After leaving the pharmacy, Yu Maimai found that many people in the market were also infected with the plague, especially the elderly and children, lying on the side of the road. Seeing this, she couldn't help but feel sad.

"Why did such a thing happen? Is there no news from the government?"

At this time, Yu Maimai didn't have any thoughts about doing business at all. She walked towards an old lady, and saw the old lady lying on the straw mat, guarding two half-grown children, dressed in rags, crying. There were bursts of voices: "Help my grandma, my grandma is about to starve to death."

"Son, is your grandma hungry or sick?"

The two children kept shaking their heads: "I don't know, grandma is dying soon."

Not caring about anything else, Yu Maimai hurriedly bought a few buns from the bun shop next door, ordered another bowl of water, knelt down beside the old woman, and shook her awake.

"You, who are you? Thank you, I, I'm not hungry, leave these buns to my grandson."

It can be seen that this old woman wants to feed her grandson even if she starves herself to death?
But Yu Maimai said: "Don't worry, I will buy it for you when your grandson is hungry. If you don't eat any more, you will starve to death. Think about it, if you starve to death, who will take care of your grandson?" ?”

As if suddenly remembering something, the old woman pushed Yu Maimai away.

"You, don't come close to us, we have the plague, and we will die after all."

But Yu Maimai waved his hand: "Don't worry, as long as you are willing to listen to me, I will definitely have a way to cure your illness!"
