The Road to Self-Saving of the Mud Bodhisattva
Chapter 5 A Bowl of Noodle Money
What can one tael of silver do? For a slightly wealthy family, it may not be enough for a dish.
But for villagers in the countryside, it is enough to cover the expenses of a family for several months.
Therefore, when Xiao Dou Su saw that such a basket of weeds could be sold for so much money, he looked at Chu Xuan with a look of admiration.
Chu Xuan: "..."
Being looked at by the child like this, his heart immediately softened, he put aside all his original plans, and took the child directly to the restaurant... the noodle shop in the alley next to him to eat noodles.
It wasn't that Chu Xuan was reluctant to treat the children to good food, it was that a tael of silver was a drop in the bucket for him, and it wasn't enough at all.
Leaving aside the maintenance of the temple, which ones do not need to spend money on what they eat and wear?
Well, he doesn't seem to need to eat it, but the child needs to eat it!
You can't let a baby who is a few years old not eat or drink like a clay figurine.
For someone who has never worried about money, it is the first time that he wants to break one penny into two pennies to spend.
So when the shopkeeper came to inquire, he just ordered a bowl of noodles without thinking about it.
He can't eat anyway, so there's no need to waste money.
Unexpectedly, after the face-to-face meeting, Xiao Dousu went to the boss and asked for a bowl, and insisted on giving half of it to Chu Xuan.
Chu Xuan was helpless, everything he ate now tasted like chewing wax, not to mention the problem of waste or not, just the taste alone, he really has no appetite.
However, the child has a good heart and wants to share everything with him, and then the two of them reasoned each other face to face.
The owner of the noodle shop was an old man with a lame leg. When he saw the tattered clothes of the two, and saw their politeness to each other, his heart softened.
Then the boss simply cooked another bowl and pushed it in front of the two of them, "Eat it, you won't be charged for this bowl."
Chu Xuan: "..."
The kindness was hard to come by, thanked the boss, Chu Xuan could only pour more than half of it into Xiao Dou Su's bowl, and then picked up the bowl and started to eat.
As for the taste... whatever the soil tastes like, the noodles taste the same.Seeing Xiao Dousu eating very happily, Chu Xuan was sure that it was not a problem with noodles but a problem with him.
Really lacking appetite, Chu Xuan could only turn his eyes while eating, so as to divert his attention.Then he saw the old man's leg, and he said while eating, "Old man, isn't it inconvenient for you to walk with this leg? Why don't you find a medical clinic to have a look?"
Not far away is a restaurant, and the business of the small noodle restaurant is really not good. Now there are no other customers except Chu Xuan and Xiao Dou Su, and the old man is sitting on a stool beside him to rest.
Hearing Chu Xuan's words, the old man smiled, "This leg was accidentally broken ten years ago, and it was not fixed in time at that time, so it became like this. It has been so many years, and the bone has grown back."
Chu Xuan ate the noodles in the bowl after sucking a few times, then walked over and said, "Let me see."
After speaking, he walked up to the old man, bent down, and exposed his ankles to the old man's surprised gaze.
Sure enough, the position of the ankle was obviously out of shape, and it looked like it had been there for a long time.
Chu Xuan touched the belt, and a rag bag was pulled out by him. When he opened the bag, a row of silver needles appeared in front of them.
Before the old man could show his surprised eyes, Chu Xuan had already picked up the silver needle and stuck it directly into the old man's leg.
Old man: "..."
Before he could react, Chu Xuan quickly inserted several other silver needles into his body, and then Chu Xuan grabbed his ankle, clicked twice, and straightened his ankle.
Suddenly, the old man's face turned pale, "You..."
You must know that many doctors have seen his foot, and they all said that the bone has been crooked long ago, and there is no way to do it. Now a person suddenly appeared and broke the bone for him without saying a word.
This, this, this... Originally, he could barely walk a few steps while crutching, so he couldn't be completely crippled!
Before the old man could finish speaking, Chu Xuan had already retracted the needle in an orderly manner and was wiping it carefully.
And it wasn't until this moment that the old man felt the dull pain piercing through his ankle, and he broke out in a cold sweat.
But after a while, his face was a little weird, he stood up and took two tentative steps, and found that his ankle, which was used to not being straight, could be straightened!
After ten years of walking, he has gotten used to walking with crooked feet, but now that his feet have suddenly recovered, it still makes him a little uncomfortable.
It's just that after he reacted, he was overjoyed and wished he could stand up and jump a few times.
Chu Xuan glanced at him, "If you don't want to continue crutching, rest for a few days, and try to move your ankles as little as possible in these few days."
When the old man heard this, he didn't dare to jump up, and he repeatedly cupped his hands at Chu Xuan, "Thank you, little brother, you are really amazing!"
Xiao Dousu had already finished eating his noodles, looked at Chu Xuan and straightened the old man's ankle in two or three strokes, looked at the old man's feet, then at Chu Xuan, with eyes full of admiration.
A pair of big black eyes are filled with: so amazing, so amazing, so amazing...
Chu Xuan: "..."
The old man was happy for a long time before he thought about the reward, wiped his hands on his body embarrassingly, and asked carefully, "Little brother, how much do you need for this reward?"
In his mind, Chu Xuan's skills are so good, the consultation fee must not be a small number.
Chu Xuan smiled and said casually, "You have already paid the consultation fee." He pointed to the noodles on the table.
The old man's heart suddenly warmed up, his eyes felt a little hot, and he hurriedly said, "How can this be done?" He fished out from his sleeve, and what he took out was only some copper coins, "Wait a minute, brother, I'll get you some money!"
As he said that, he hurried into the house.
And when he came out with the money, there were people hurrying outside, where were the big and small figures?
At this time, Chu Xuan had already brought Xiao Dou Su into a clothing store.
The clothes on both of their bodies were so torn that he couldn't see them for a long time.
The two entered the clothing store, and the proprietress greeted them warmly, without showing any signs of losing face because of their tattered clothes.
It is said that when you reach out and don't hit a smiling person, you will feel better when you meet a warm boss.
Chu Xuan said, "Bring two sets of clothes for the child."
"Good~" The proprietress looked at Xiao Dou Su's figure, and quickly brought out a few sets of clothes.
Dou Su didn't expect that Chu Xuan not only took him to eat noodles, but also took him to buy clothes.
A child from a poor family has long been in charge of the family. Although he is not very old, he already knows the importance of money. Sometimes a copper coin may be a life-saving money.
So seeing that Chu Xuan wanted to buy clothes for him made him very uneasy.
When Chu Xuan asked him which one he liked, he shook his head repeatedly, expressing that he didn't want it.
Chu Xuan had no choice but to watch and pick two.Of course, he can't afford good ones now, so he can only choose two that look sturdy and convenient.
Most importantly, it's affordable!
But when I bought him, I hesitated and only bought one set.
It's really...he didn't know if he could wear it, and he was afraid that if he couldn't, it would be a waste.
But for villagers in the countryside, it is enough to cover the expenses of a family for several months.
Therefore, when Xiao Dou Su saw that such a basket of weeds could be sold for so much money, he looked at Chu Xuan with a look of admiration.
