Chapter 21

As for Du Xuan.

Du Xuan didn't go to the county, but went to the nearest town.

Baojiang Town is the closest to Zhao'an Village, Du Xuan's footsteps are fairly fast, and she arrived in the town in half an hour.

Of course it's not as prosperous as the county, and Du Xuan doesn't plan to take out the meat Xuanlan and sell it at the medicine shop in Baojiang Town, as there won't be any good prices here, so she still has to go to the county.

And she originally planned to come out today to sell meat Xuanlan and use the money to buy her family.

If he could get paid for treating those people, the meat Xuanlan would be saved.

Compared with the pharmacies in the county where even the clerks look above their heads, the pharmacies in the town are much more down-to-earth.

Probably many villagers from the surrounding villages usually come here to grab medicine with the prescriptions given by the barefoot doctor, or some folk remedies that I don’t know where they came from.

So when Du Xuan came to grab the medicine, the shopkeeper of the pharmacy didn't say anything, just took the medicine as she said.

Du Xuan saw that the shopkeeper of the pharmacy was kind and friendly, and seemed to be quite talkative, so she inquired, "Shopkeeper, I would like to ask you, where is there a seller of needles?"

The shopkeeper said without raising his eyes, "Tailor shop, needlework shop."

"Where are the needles for acupuncture?" Du Xuan asked, and the shopkeeper raised his eyes to look at her, "It's not easy to find, and it's not cheap. The doctors in the medical hall should have it, but the guy who eats it doesn't matter. Not interested in selling."

Du Xuan felt that what the shopkeeper said made sense. With the current technology, it should not be possible to make acupuncture needles of the specifications, but even if the technology is rough, it must not be cheap.

She thanked her with a smile, and after thinking about it, she decided to go to a tailor shop and a needlework shop.

The embroidery needles were fairly thin, but not long enough. She went to two needlework shops but couldn't find a suitable one. Finally, she planned to try her luck at a tailor's shop, but unexpectedly found a more suitable set.

Not many, just ten.

The selling price...was cheaper than she expected, which was beyond Du Xuan's expectation.

The tailor shop owner was also very surprised. He didn't expect this set of needles to be sold. "I'm not afraid to say that this set of needles has not been sold because I didn't make it well."

"Not done well?" Du Xuan looked at him puzzled.

"It's too long." The boss frowned, looking dissatisfied, "It takes a lot of effort to embroider such a long needle, but it's too thin to be used as sewing needles or embroidery needles." Well, if you sew thicker, it is easier to bend the needle."

Du Xuan thinks... how should I put it.

In life, luck is the word.

It's very mysterious...

My own luck seems to be okay.

Sure enough, the next thing the boss said was, "If you want to buy it, I'll give you a cheap price."

It was really cheap, much cheaper than Du Xuan imagined, and then she bought some needles and thread here, and left happily.

When I returned to the place where I met the carriage with the medicine, the carriage was gone.

Even the ruts have been wiped clean, it seems that they still have a sense of vigilance. In fact, those men in black should have been very vigilant before. Later, Du Xuan realized that because they couldn't see, they probably didn't know that they had stopped the carriage. On the official road.

But now, Du Xuan is a little embarrassed.

She doesn't quite remember the way, is it here?

Or... where?

Suddenly, like a headless chicken, she turned around the nearby road for a few times, and then heard the clear voice that she had heard before coming from the woods beside the road.

In a blink of an eye, I saw the young master wearing a gauze hat, looking a little struggling, coming to lure her.

"We've moved to a more secluded place. Please come with me, lady," the man said.

Du Xuan thought about it, then walked in with him.

She was also unambiguous, and treated them immediately, made a fire to boil the potion, washed their eyes with the potion, and let them take the decoction internally.

A few men in black can't see it, so it's okay.

But the man wearing the gauze hat was a little surprised by Du Xuan's ability, because no matter how she looked at it, she didn't look like she had just a little knowledge of medicine.

The movements are too familiar, and there is no thought or hesitation in every movement. This must be someone who is extremely confident in his medical skills, so he does not hesitate.

Then... Du Xuan took out a handful of thin needles!
He was a little shocked, "..." Originally, he wanted to continue calling her 'this lady', but he didn't think it was appropriate, so he said, "Doctor...can you do acupuncture?"

Du Xuan paused, pursed her lips, "I understand."

She pricked the acupuncture points on the face and head of the man in black, and then operated the needle again. Not long after, the man in black said pleasantly, "I... I seem to be able to see the light..."

Hearing this, Du Xuan also breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thank you, doctor! Thank you, doctor!" Although the man in black is loyal to protect the lord, it doesn't matter even if he dies, but no one really wants to be blind, how can he be unhappy to be able to see again.

After Du Xuan received the needles, she continued to give needles to the other men in black.

To be honest, she was very uncomfortable.

My head is screaming, the principle of aseptic operation!Cannot be cross-used!

But there is no way, just a set of needles...

So a set of needles pricked three people, and when it was time to collect the needles, Du Xuan didn't even want this set of needles anymore, but after thinking about it, she put it away, because it could still come in handy after all.

The eyes of the three men in black can see the light. If the sense of light is restored, as long as they continue to take medicine and wash their eyes, the problem will not be serious, and it will be a matter of time before they recover their vision.

And because their eyes have not been poisoned for a long time, they will recover faster.

Du Xuan silently went through all the experience of the treatment process and wrote it down.

After finishing her work, she didn't intend to waste any more time. After dictating the prescription, she extended her hand to the man, "Remuneration."

Putting a silver ingot in her palm, Du Xuan raised her eyebrows, ten taels.

That's a lot!
Not only can you replace the dry straw on the bed in the side room, but you can even replace the beds in the main room and the side room with new quilts and mattresses!This winter will not be so sad!
The corners of her eyes and eyebrows finally couldn't help but curl up, and even the corners of her mouth curled up in a happy arc.

In fact, she had been quite serious before, with a stern face, but now she didn't hold a smile on her face, which surprised the man, and his voice was also slightly smiling, "I don't know what to call the doctor? Where do you live?" Where? If you have the opportunity, you should come to the door to thank you."

Du Xuan looked at him, she didn't want her secret to be exposed, she was a peasant woman who used to do some rough work, but now she is good at medicine, people might think she is a ghost.

Du Xuan shook her head, "No need."

She thought for a while, and hearing the obviously wrong breath in this man's voice, she sighed softly, "Do you have a pen and paper?"

There are pens and paper in the carriage.

Du Xuan thought that she didn't intend to tell the other party her name anyway, it was just a one-shot deal.The other party gave the money readily, and she didn't mind giving some extra treatment, and she didn't bother to hide the fact that she was literate.

That handwriting is drawn with iron and silver hooks.
