I practiced medicine in ancient times
Chapter 96 Buying Land
On the second day, as soon as the Huichun Clinic in Qingshui Town opened its doors, dozens of patients poured in. They were old or young, sick or disabled. They all came to see Xu Qingyi because they heard her say yesterday that she would be seeing patients at the Huichun Clinic today.
Xu Qingyi came to the front from the backyard and saw that there were many people coming. She invited the patients into the clinic and instantly got into working mode.
The number of people who came to see the doctor was more than Xu Qingyi had imagined, and without Bai Yan's help, Xu Qingyi didn't finish seeing all the patients until 5 p.m.
Afterwards, he took the things Qingping bought and rushed to Shili Village without stopping.
Fortunately, the clinic sent a carriage to pick up Xu Qingyi and her two siblings.
In less than half an hour, the coachman drove the carriage to the door of the Bai family.
It is summer now, the weather is hot, the sun is scorching the earth, and even the air seems to be distorted by the heat.
There was no one hanging around in the village. It was the off-season for farming, and the villagers were either resting at home to escape the heat or out doing odd jobs.
Even if you have to do daily labor, you have to go out early and come back late to work.
Xu Qingyi got off the carriage and unloaded the things she bought for the Bai family. The rustling sound must have woken up the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
Wen and Cui came out of the room and saw Xu Qingyi carrying things down. They came forward to help with surprise, muttering, "Qingyi, you're back. Is my Baiyan back?"
"Grandma Bai, Aunt Bai, I was assigned to come to the town clinic to handle some matters. Bai Yan didn't come back with me this time.
In addition, these things were bought for your family by Bai Yan. There is also some silver here, which is all earned by Bai Yan in the county. You keep it well. "Xu Qingyi unloaded the things bought for the Bai family from the car, sat in the main room of the Bai family and drank boiled water. She took out the silver she earned during the days in the county and handed it to Wen.
Xu Qingyi and Bai Yan had been in the county for nearly three months. She treated Madam Li, Madam Liu, and Madam Yuan, and gave them a lot of money. Over the past few days, the two of them had earned nearly fifty taels of silver.
They kept some for themselves, and spent money to buy some food. After returning home, Xu Qingyi planned to give twenty taels of silver to each of the Bai and Xu families.
"So much money? Are you able to make so much money in the county? Qingyi, you and Baiyan have become very capable." Cui saw that Xu Qingyi gave her a lot of small change. After weighing it, she realized that there were at least twenty taels of silver. She was a little surprised and said.
In the past two years, even though Qingyi and Baiyan taught them how to pick herbs and prepare them to sell to the town's medical clinic, their family's monthly income was only two or three taels of silver.
Qingyi and Baiyan had been in the county for less than three months, but they had already brought back twenty taels of silver. How could this not surprise Cui?
These twenty taels of silver are enough to cover the annual income of the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
“There are many high-ranking officials in the county, and Bai Yan and I have some skills, so we can earn so much.
After returning home this time, Bai Yan asked me to say a few words to Grandma Bai and Aunt Bai.
Bai Yan said that now that she has the ability, she would ask you to be more frugal in eating and drinking, and also arrange a way out for Bai Yun. Bai Yan meant to send Bai Yun to school.
If he is not good at studying, send him to a clinic to learn medicine and make pharmacy." Xu Qingyi said to the Bai family mother-in-law and daughter-in-law with a smile.
"Our family is also planning to send Baiyun to the town's school next year, so that she can keep Qingwu company.
Qingyi, when you go back to the county this time, tell Baiyan not to worry about the family affairs, her mother and I will take care of it, and let her study medicine and learn skills in the clinic with peace of mind. Cui also knew that their family was getting better and better now. Not only did they build a house with blue bricks and tiles, they had no worries about food and drink, and they also had extra money saved, all of which were brought by Baiyan and Qingyi.
The most important thing is to let Baiyan learn medical skills well in the county.
"Yes! Okay, I'll tell Bai Yan when I get back.
I haven't been back for a long time, so I won't stay any longer and will leave first." Xu Qingyi nodded, responded to Cui's words, and then turned and left.
Before Xu Qingyi reached home, she saw a carriage driving away from her side, and the coachman greeted her.
After Xu Qingyi moved down the things she bought for the Bai family, Xu Qingping and Xu Qing'an asked the driver to deliver the things to her house first.
Look, before she even reached home, she saw her grandmother, mother and aunt greeting her at the door from afar, with smiles on their faces.
"You're back. Come into the house and have a rest and some water." When Zhang saw her daughter coming back, she welcomed her daughter to sit in the main room and handed the boiled water to Xu Qingyi.
"Miss."
"Big sister." Brother and sister Xu Qingwu and Xu Qingwen were also at home, eating the cakes they had bought. When the two little ones saw Xu Qingyi, they also looked happy.
"Sugar is added. It's quite sweet. Where are my father and uncle?" Xu Qingyi took the boiled water handed to her by Zhang. She took a sip. A sweet and refreshing taste instantly spread in her mouth, which lifted Xu Qingyi's spirits.
“Your father and uncle are working in the fields, they should be back soon.
Now our family has bought new land, and your father and uncle have gone to clean up and inspect the new land." Zhu replied.
"Grandma, how many acres of land did our family buy this year?" Xu Qingyi asked.
"Together with the previous few acres of land, it has a total of ten acres, four acres of dry land and six acres of paddy field.
Almost all our family savings have been taken away.” Zhu talked about the land she bought, with a smile on her face.
"If the money is not enough, I have more here." Xu Qingyi took out twenty taels of silver and handed it to her grandmother.
Zhu took the silver and money handed over by Xu Qingyi and was as shocked as Cui.
It had only been a few months since he went to the county to study medicine, but he had already earned twenty taels of silver. This made Zhu feel incredible.
Zhu didn't say or ask much, and just put the money away obediently.
"Grandma, how is Qingwu doing in school?" Xu Qingyi asked, thinking about this.
"I heard from the teachers in the town school that Qingwu is smart and learns very quickly, which has won the praise of the teachers in the academy." When talking about Xu Qingwu, not only Mrs. Zhu looked happy, but little Mrs. Zhu also looked happy.
"It's good to be able to study." Xu Qingyi also felt relieved.
She knew that her grandmother had always hoped that someone in their generation would be able to embark on a career in politics, and if they were good at studying, they would be able to pass the imperial examinations and bring honor to the family by pursuing a career in politics. Seeing that her fourth brother was good at studying and had a promising future, Zhu must be very happy.
After all, they are scholars, farmers, merchants and artisans.
However, Xu Qingyi also knew that if Qingwu wanted to truly succeed, he would need more support and help.
Paper, ink, brush, inkstone, and books are all essential, as well as famous teachers to teach.
