If you really don't charge for consultation, what does it matter if the medicine is a little more expensive?
"Which doctor is that?"
"Is it far from here?"
"Can you treat other diseases besides bugs? Can you treat swollen feet?"
……
All of a sudden, the villagers started asking questions at once, just like the old grandpa and grandma in modern times going to the supermarket to get free eggs, as active and eager.
Lin Anji was so confused by the questions that he didn't know which answer to give.
It was Master Li, who was in urgent need of an answer, who came to his rescue: "Stop arguing, stop arguing, be quiet, the head of the Lin family can't hear what you want to ask like this, come one by one."
After Li Erye emphasized it many times, everyone calmed down, and Lin Anji also gave an answer to the question he had just heard:
"The doctor is from here."
"It's not far from us. It's still very close."
"I don't know if she knows anything about other diseases besides treating worms. I need to ask her."
.......
"Our doctor? I've never heard of a doctor who specializes in treating bugs around here."
"Could it be the one from Zhangjia Village next door?"
"No, definitely not. That person only knows how to set bones. It's a skill passed down from our ancestors. He can't cure any other illnesses."
"No, I haven't heard of any doctors nearby. There was a doctor with good medical skills in Liujia Village before, but I heard he passed away a few days ago."
"The one you are talking about is An Ru's father-in-law, right? His medical skills are really good, better than the one in town. I went to see him last time..."
.......
The villagers were guessing one after another. Even though the person who knew the answer was right in front of them, they just didn't ask, so Lin Anji didn't have the chance to say what he had always wanted to say.
He squatted on the ground with some boredom watching their heated discussion. Lin Bowen looked at his father's actions and squatted in imitation of him, then was carried home by Sun.
She was relieved that the child was fine.
The most important thing now is to let my husband concentrate on making money.
Sun took the child home, and also brought the two elders of the Lin family who wanted to watch the fun.
The only people left at the scene were Lin Anji, who was in a daze, and the people from the second room, who were watching the fun. As for the people from the third room, they had already gone home when they saw what Lin Bowen was holding.
Only after all the weeds under their feet were pulled out did the villagers remember Lin Anji.
"Brother Anji, which village's doctor are you talking about?!"
"From our village." Lin Anji patted the dirt in his hands.
Acting is indeed not suitable for him. Next time his third brother asks him to do this job, he will probably refuse to do it.
this time......
We have to do it this time. If we don’t, we won’t have the money to pay for the medicine.
Our village?
Who?
Is there such a person?
I racked my brains but couldn't imagine that there was such a person as a doctor in my village.
Have not heard.
never seen it.
do not know.
The villagers looked at each other and shook their heads - they didn't know!
So everyone surrounded Lin Anji again and stared at him.
Lin Anji was also unambiguous: "Her name is Lin Shiyu."
Lin Shiyu?
This sounded like a woman's name.
The men present frowned when they heard this. The status of women in this dynasty was slightly higher than that in the previous dynasty, but the prejudice against women was not much less than that in the previous dynasty.
Especially in farming families, where survival requires a lot of labor, girls are almost regarded as a burden to the family.
If a family has a skill, it will usually be passed on to the son. It is very rare for it to be passed on to the daughter.
The people here have traditional ideas and would rather their skills die out than pass them on to their daughters.
It is really surprising that the family of this woman named Lin Shiyu passed on her skills to her.
Unlike the men, the women in the village were very happy to hear that it was a female doctor, especially the married women.
In an era where people lived a life of luxury, most people were in poor health.
The food of each household mainly depends on the labor force in the family. As for women, who are considered as "burdens", they have been hungry since childhood.
When I was a child, I didn’t have enough nutrition to support my body’s growth, and after I got married, my body was drained by childbirth.
Women's bodies can only be described by the word "empty".
They can tolerate and get used to all these, but because the production conditions here are poor, they still suffer from gynecological diseases to varying degrees.
There are doctors who can treat other diseases, but no one treats gynecological diseases.
Even if there are doctors who can treat these symptoms, they are too embarrassed to talk to a male doctor and ask him to help with the examination.
And the men in their family would not allow a strange man to touch their women.
Not having money to see a doctor is one thing, but having no one to see a doctor is another.
There is a female doctor here, at least if there are any problems during childbirth I can ask her for help instead of just waiting to die.
No matter how hard and tiring life is, it means nothing in the face of life and death.
Almost all the village women present were immersed in the joy of having their lives and safety guaranteed, except for Grandma Liu, who looked thoughtful.
She is known as the "little trumpet" of gossip. All the gossips in the surrounding areas cannot escape her ears. She dares to say that she is second to none in terms of being well-informed, and no one in the nearby villages dares to say that she is first.
Her mind raced as she searched for information about "Lin Shiyu" and suddenly an idea struck her:
"Boss of the Lin Family, the Lin Shiyu you are talking about is not the six-year-old girl from your third brother's family, right?"
Big girl, big sister, big girl, etc., or flowers, grass...
A serious name like Lin Shiyu is rare in the villages near them.
Precisely because the name Lin Shiyu is rare and appears infrequently, Liu Po still kept it in mind.
The villagers looked at Liu Po and thought that she was getting old and confused.
I actually thought of her as a six-year-old girl.
But what Lin Anji said next slapped them in the face.
"Yes, that's right!"
Villagers of Yamada Village: ...
This……
Wow, that's outrageous!
"Hey! Turns out you were just teasing us!"
"Let's go."
"Bah, are you Lin family members so desperate to get rich that you actually created such a scene? If you had given Liu the title of doctor, I would have believed it..."
……
The villagers who had just gathered together started to scold Lin Anji and then left.
Looking at the slowly dispersing crowd and the figures moving further and further away, Lin Anji lowered his head in disappointment.
See, he said it wouldn't work.
Instead of counting on making money from this, it would be more practical to farm the land and sell the harvest.
Yes.
Because the eldest wife's family was extremely poor and could not afford Lin Shiyu's medicine, Lin Anru, as her younger brother, came up with this idea.
According to my daughter, almost everyone in the village has this disease, which means that everyone needs herbal medicine.
