70: The Soldier King's Supernatural Wife, Three Babies in One Child

"Look, Goudan has opened his eyes!"

Someone in the crowd shouted, and everyone's eyes were focused on the child's face.

The face that was gray just now is now gradually showing some color. His eyes are open but cannot focus yet, but waking up is hope.

The child's father ran all the way back from the Lu Family Clinic. When he heard that his son was fine, he knelt down in front of Liu Zhibai and said, "Thank you, Doctor Liu, thank you for saving my son."

Huang Wenhui quietly felt the child's pulse and found that he had passed the critical period.

He couldn't help but look at Liu Zhibai with admiration, "Doctor Liu, you really are worthy of being the miracle doctor praised by everyone. Thank you for saving this child."

"Don't be in a hurry to thank me," Liu Zhibai sat on the chair, his face light, without pride or modesty, "I still need to observe for a while, go and make a cup of tea."

He only drank two bowls of pumpkin porridge in the evening. He was really hungry. Lu Chaoyan was also hungry and her stomach rumbled.

She touched her nose embarrassedly, wishing she had known not to waste the ten poached eggs and could have eaten them herself.

Huang Wenhui knew Liu Zhibai's habit of seeing patients, so he quickly turned around and whispered a few instructions to a young man.

After hearing what was said, the young man ran to the yard next door and soon brought back two large bowls of noodles with chopped green onions and three poached eggs.

This shows the sincerity and honesty of the cook.

Before Liu Zhibai could speak, Lu Chaoyan picked up a bowl and started eating.

Her empty stomach was filled, and she finally understood Liu Zhibai's feeling of asking for tea. Face is not as important as stomach.

Liu Zhibai glared at her before starting to eat slowly.

After finishing a bowl of egg noodles, his complexion looked much better. He talked to the people in the house about how there were many snakes in the summer and asked them not to let their children run around.

The child fell asleep again, but his breathing became more stable.

Liu Zhibai examined him again and said to the child's father, "The remaining poison in the child has not been completely eliminated. The day after tomorrow morning before the sun comes out, you bring the child to me and I will give him an acupuncture injection to eliminate the poison."

"Yes, yes, I've got it," the child's father nodded repeatedly and said with some embarrassment, "Doctor Liu, can the medical expenses be paid with the scorpion that the child picked up?"

He went to the hospital today and spent all his money. The only things at home that were not sold were the scorpions and centipedes that the children had picked up recently.

When Liu Zhibai heard this, there was some displeasure in his eyes, but his face was still gentle.

"Sure, but the price our village doctor offers is not as high as the pharmaceutical company's. If you want to sell it to me, bring it over the day after tomorrow. As for today's consultation fee, acupuncture and detoxification is three yuan, detoxification pills are five yuan, and ointment is five yuan, a total of thirteen yuan."

The man was suddenly numb, and his family also stayed there. Does it cost so much money?

I have to detoxify the day after tomorrow, so won’t that cost another thirteen dollars?

Huang Wenhui quickly pushed the child's father and said, "Without Doctor Liu today, your son would have died. Go back and get the money. Doctor Liu is waiting for you to go back."

After hearing what he said, the child's family came to their senses. Yes, if it weren't for Doctor Liu today, the child would have died for sure.

Compared to the money spent in the hospital, which didn't save the child, it's nothing.

But they really have no money.

The four adults in the family came out of the house, talked in low voices, and then ran to different places to borrow money.

About half an hour later, the four people came back and handed Liu Zhibai a handful of scattered banknotes.

The child's grandmother carried a basket of eggs, but it was obvious that the money was not enough.

Liu Zhibai asked Lu Chaoyan to count the money. Lu Chaoyan didn't say anything. He took the money and counted them one by one. It was eleven yuan and seventy cents, for thirty eggs.

According to the current price of eggs in rural areas, five cents each, the total is twenty cents more.

Lu Chaoyan returned two cents and said, "It's too much. You can go to my house the day after tomorrow to get the basket of eggs."

"Okay, thank you for saving my grandson."

The child's grandmother took the money and said a few words of thanks. Lu Chaoyan smiled and gave the money and the basket of eggs to Liu Zhibai.

After receiving the medical fee, Liu Zhibai looked at the child again, confirmed that he did not have a fever, and got up and left.

Huang Wenhui took the lead and led a group of people to send the two people far away.

On the way back, Lu Chaoyan was in mixed feelings. From her point of view, even if she cut Liu Zhibai into pieces, she would not feel satisfied.

But he can also bring vitality and hope to the people here.

It made her waver in her thoughts of killing him.

When I got home, the east was already dawning and it was past three in the morning.

She quickly washed and went to bed.

Liu Zhibai put away the money and eggs, changed into old clothes, carried a basket and a medicine hoe, and went to the mountains.

Lu Chaoyan slept until the sun came out and was awakened by the voice of the team leader Zhao Chunshui.

"Comrade Gu, I'm here on behalf of the brigade to invite you to be a technician."

Gu Suyi was dressed simply today. She had just come back from outside with a basket of mulberries. There were mulberry leaves on her hair. After hearing what Zhao Chunshui said, she was confused.

"What kind of technician?"

"I heard that you can make mulberry jam. The brigade decided to set up a jam workshop in the name of the collective. We hired you as a technician to guide everyone in making jam and selling it. Don't worry, every month, in addition to the work points, we will also give you an extra six yuan."

After hearing what Zhao Chunshui said, Gu Suyi's head was buzzing. How did the brigade cadre know this?

Her daughter sells for dozens of dollars a day, and only gives her six dollars a month. Only a fool would do that.

She smiled politely, "Captain, you misunderstood. I don't know how to make jam. I picked these just to eat."

"That's impossible," Zhao Chunshui took out a half-empty glass jar of jam from his pocket. "Secretary Si said that you said you could make jam, and you also agreed to be technicians and lead the whole team to do this side business together."

"No, we don't."

Gu Suyi flatly denied it and thought to herself, was it Yuwei who said that?

She shouldn't be that stupid.

"Uncle Zhao, good morning!"

Lu Chaoyan stood under the eaves of the main house, smiling jokingly, "Come to Aunt Gu to buy jam. It's three yuan a bottle, not cheap."

Her words made Gu Suyi unable to pretend any longer, and she could only admit awkwardly that she could make jam.

Zhao Chunshui said, "Comrade Gu, collective property cannot be occupied by individuals. I will not pursue the past. I hope you can teach everyone well in the future. Now follow me."

"Yes, I will follow the collective arrangements."

Carrying a basket and suppressing her anger, Gu Suyi went to the educated youth yard behind the brigade with Zhao Chunshui.

There were not many educated youth in Lianshan Brigade. There were more than 60 men, all of whom went to repair the reservoir. There were only more than 30 women, who followed the village women to raise silkworms every day.

Zhao Chunshui picked out a few quick and hardworking girls from among them, and also picked a few local girls from the brigade, a total of twelve people, and asked them to learn how to make jam from Gu Suyi.

A big pot of sugar and a glass jar were prepared for them. When Gu Suyi saw this, she immediately understood.

The brigade cadres already knew that they were making and selling jam.

She was so frightened that she broke out in a cold sweat and could only teach them how to make jam obediently.
