Mountain dwelling practice: I am a gentle guest in the world

Chapter 738

Everything was arranged overnight, and the next morning, there was a Sang's Medical Clinic in Lanshui Town.

Living alone, there was no housewarming ceremony, and no opening promotion. Overnight, the entire house was transformed into a brand new look, which made the neighbors living nearby marvel at the efficiency of the owner.

It was already done before I saw anyone repairing it.

We are all ordinary people, busy with our livelihoods all day long. Just because we don't see anyone repairing the house doesn't mean no one is repairing it. Maybe we didn't notice it, so we just sighed.

Not many people knew that the owner had changed. When neighbors saw that the plaque at the door had been changed, they came forward to ask curiously.

Standing at the medicine cabinet counter are two puppets, who are infused with her medical and pharmacological knowledge and are responsible for dispensing medicine to patients according to her prescriptions. There are also two puppets in the inner court, who can help boil medicine for special patients who are homeless.

The fate of a monk is often uncertain, and in order to avoid being too deeply involved with the people of this town, she does not plan to hire local people as helpers.

Now these four helpers are puppets, outsiders just don’t know it.

In the eyes of outsiders, the new owner of the clinic hired four assistants before it even opened. She was indeed a lady from a wealthy family who had experienced life and did not know the sufferings of the world. It didn't matter. After no one patronized her for a while, she would know the difficulties of life.

There would probably be no patients visiting on the first day of opening, so Sang Yue taught the two puppets in the inner court how to dry, roast, and store medicinal materials.

She had never considered opening a clinic before, but out of professional habit, she couldn't help but collect the medicinal plants she encountered along the way. Therefore, when the clinic opened, her medicine cabinet would be full.

Lanshui Town is surrounded by mountains and water. From now on, she will go into the mountains to look for medicinal herbs every once in a while.

I will go to the pharmacy in town some other day when I have time to see which store sells genuine medicines. If the quality is good enough, I will let my patients take the prescription to buy medicine there.

Although there are always two masters for one thing, there are always inconvenient times.

Anyway, on the first day of opening, there was no publicity and no one was standing at the door to shout. Passers-by and neighbors saw the plaque and came in to take a look, asked where the original owner had gone, and then learned from the puppet that the old house had a new owner.

But no one believed in her medical skills because she was too young.

So, after teaching the puppeteer, she took a nap in the rattan chair under the inner courtyard corridor, occasionally listening to the movement in the lobby of the front house. It seemed that many people came in and out, asking what was going on in this house and why it suddenly became a clinic.

When she was almost sleepy from listening, a puppet suddenly came in and told her that there was a patient outside who wanted to see a doctor.

The people who came were acquaintances, the couple who owned the skewers stall. It turned out that the former owner of the house passed by the couple's house on his way home last night and came to inform them of the result and express his gratitude.

Upon learning that she had indeed bought the house, the couple came to see it this morning.

Seeing that she not only renovated the storefront overnight, but also opened the shop directly, the couple thought that after all, it was they who introduced her to the old owner and made the deal. The locals were frightened by the monks' actions, and they were also afraid.

But who let them make this happen? Whether this girl is a human or a demon, good or evil, let them try it themselves.

So he went back and prepared a gift and brought it over at noon.

Even without the ability to see through the sky, Sang Yue could still read the couple's mindset from their awkward and anxious expressions. She accepted their gift with a smile, and then, as they wished, let them become the first and second patients of her clinic.

In fact, the couple didn't have any serious health problems, but they worked too hard, which caused severe muscle and bone strain.

The pain in the waist and back has been unbearable for many years, so he went up the mountain to pick some herbs according to the folk remedy and boiled them in water to drink. If it still doesn't work, one of them will rest while the other opens the stall, and the couple will take turns to rest.

No matter which dimension, even if there are no heavy taxes in Lanshui Town, it is still not easy for ordinary people to live a better life. Children all go to the town school to learn culture, and if they do well, they can go to the city school. The couple's life goal is to move into the city and provide their children with a safer and more promising living environment.

In order to save money, the couple never went to the city to see a doctor no matter how uncomfortable they were.

They thought it was a minor problem, and almost everyone of their age had this symptom. Some people were even more seriously ill than them, lying on the bed all year round and unable to get up. Those people often went to the city to see a doctor, but ended up like this.

It can be seen that the medical skills of the doctors in the city are not very good, and they are no better than them who use folk remedies to treat the disease.

Some neighbors have lived in the town all their lives, and when their children grow up and have a free time, they will recover slowly. Sang Yue also told the couple this, wrote a normal prescription and asked the puppet at the counter to get the medicine according to the prescription.

After all, he is a puppet, and it is his first time to pick up medicine according to the prescription.

For safety reasons, Sang Yue asked her to bring out the herbs she had picked so that she could have a look. After confirming that they were correct, she packed them and gave them to the couple. The couple nodded in approval of her rigor and wanted to leave after taking the herbs.

"Don't worry, wait a moment." Sang Yue stopped the two from getting up. Another puppet brought two bowls of warm water on a tray. "We just checked the disease. After taking this medicine and following my instructions to eat medicated food, there won't be a big problem..."

Having said this, she paused, thought for a moment, and then continued under the couple's puzzled gaze:

"Originally, everyone has their own destiny, and I shouldn't interfere. But I was able to open this clinic thanks to the guidance of the virtuous couple, and I intend to return the favor. So, do you two want to listen to your own destiny?"

Eh? The couple looked at each other in astonishment. After a moment's hesitation, the stall owner nodded first:
"Listen. It doesn't hurt to listen."

I came to see a doctor, got a prescription, took the medicine, and was about to leave when I was suddenly stopped. It must be bad news. Either he was like those evil monks in the past who were trying to make money or take lives, or there was something wrong with my fate.

"I am a casual cultivator," Sang Yue said bluntly, not caring about the couple's questioning looks, "I have never properly learned the art of divination, so I can only tell you what will happen..."

The stall owner couple sets up the stall at night and goes into the mountains early in the morning to pick various wild mushrooms.

They also set traps in the mountains, and they would harvest something almost every morning when they went into the mountains. In addition, the herbs and seasonings needed for barbecue were also picked from the mountains, cleaned and cooked at home.

However, if you climb the mountain too much, you will eventually encounter a tiger.

The man did not encounter a tiger, but when he was trying to catch a hare carefully, he was frightened by a pheasant that suddenly appeared and fell down the hillside. His lumbar vertebra was broken, and his family had no money left for treatment, so he was completely paralyzed.

When a man dies, the woman is the only labor force left in the family.

The eldest and second oldest of the three children dropped out of school and came home to help. The eldest was simple and honest, and took over his father's daily work at home. The second oldest was smart and worked as a clerk in a rice shop in the city.

The third child was really naive. Suddenly, without the protection of his two older brothers, he was taken by his classmates to a casino in the city to broaden his horizons.

As a result, he offended a nobleman and was beaten to death on the spot.

Everyone has their own misfortunes and blessings, and the fate of this family is not the most special. It is not perfect, but it is not terrible. When the couple learned about the tragic condition of their youngest son, the man vomited blood, and the woman could not bear the shock and died on the spot due to cerebral hemorrhage.

In just one year, only the eldest and second oldest brothers were left in the family to continue their parents' lifestyle.

Get married, have children, and work hard for a living all your life.
